No, Wes Anderson hasn't been scrolling on the For You page, as the filmmaker revealed that he has never seen a TikTok - despite there being an entire trend about his films. The 54-year-old is widely known for his distinctive cinematic style in terms of cinematography, colour design and composition, and some of his films include The Grand Budapest Hotel (2014), The French Dispatch (2021), and most recently Asteroid City (2023) and many more. Earlier this year, a TikTok trend emerged where people filmed their mundane activities with symmetrical shots and quirky music and it all began with TikToker @avawillyums who filmed her train journey emulating the movie director. Sign up to our free Indy100 weekly newsletter The hashtag "Wes Anderson Trend," now has over 216m views, however despite the virality of the trend, Anderson himself still hasn't seen a single TikTok. @avawillyums With a good imagination, everything is symmetrical. Let a girl day dream! #wesanderson Speaking to The Daily Beast, he confessed when asked about the emergence of AI-generated trailers that reimagine classic movies such as Star Wars, Lord of the Rings, and Dune in his cinematic style. "I’ve only been exposed to it verbally. I haven’t seen any of it," he said. "Obviously, it’s easy for me to go to the right web page and see it. I choose not to really engage. I guess it’s because I don’t want to get distracted by that." He added: "It’s a bit like if you’re told, 'Your friend does a great version of you.' Maybe you say, I’d really like to see it, and maybe you say, I don’t want to see a version of me, even if it’s good. It can be like, “Is that me?” That’s not necessarily the thing you want." It was after this that he mentioned how he hadn't seen a single TikTok video. Anderson said: "At some point, I’m sure I’ll go in there and see. But I’ve never seen a TikTok, for instance, of anything. I’m not going to start with me. [laughs]" Meanwhile, Anderson's latest film Asteroid City (2023) is set to be released on June 19 and stars Tom Hanks, Scarlett Johansson, Jeffrey Wright, Tilda Swinton, Bryan Cranston, Adrien Brody, Edward Norton, Steve Carell, Hope Davis, Live Schreiber, Rupert Friend, Hong Chau, Maya Hawke, Stephen Park, Willem Dafoe, and Margot Robbie.

In a shared post to Instagram, the 44-year-old reality star shared a clip of herself in the audience of one of Barker's shows where she held up a sign that read: "Travis I'm pregnant," as she jumped up and down in excitement while the crowd can be heard cheering in response. Kardashian's baby bump can also be seen on display as she sported a black bodysuit, as the video then shows her drummer husband's reaction as he wiped away tears as he left the stage to give her a hug and a kiss.

The sweet announcement is a call back to the band's music video for the 1999 song 'All the Small Things' where a woman similarly holds up a sign that reads "Travis I'm pregnant." Fans of the couple took to social media to share their congratulatory messages, and loved the music video callback.

Kardashian gave an update in an episode of The Kardashians back in May. "We are officially done with IVF," Kourtney said in a confessional.

Fans of Khloe Kardashian have defended the reality star against trolls “body shaming” her over a new bikini pic. Kardashian shared an image with her 309 million Instagram followers. It showed her in a gold bikini with the image taken from her behind her, revealing her bottom. She was captured on a beach with the waves and blue sky ahead of her. The picture was taken as part of an advertising campaign for her own Good American apparel brand which recently partnered with the brand Body Glove on a new swimwear range. In another picture, the reality star posed laying on top of a surfboard and in a clip, she emerged from a swimming pool wearing the same gold bikini. But, it was the image baring her bottom that caught the eye as some Instagram users launched nasty comments at the star. Sign up to our free Indy100 weekly newsletter One Instagram user asked, “What’s with the weird vein on your tush?!” leading to a whole host of others making unsolicited comments about Kardashian’s appearance. Another fan hit back: “What vein? Even if there was a vein, which there isn’t. What’s wrong with a vein? Since when do we control or tell veins in our body where to go and not to go?” Others also came to the defence of the star, with someone asking “What’s with the body shaming?” Kardashian has been known to hit back at trolls who have commented on her social media posts, previously giving the best one-world response to someone who asked, “Do you miss your old face?”.

Hugh Hefner's son, Marston, has kickstarted a side hustle to fund his Pokémon card collection. The 33-year-old son of the former Playboy founder told Page Six how his relationship with his father made him feel comfortable about his sexuality and realise that "there's nothing wrong with nudity or sexuality". "I grew up, you know, in an environment where that was kind of hammered home, where there’s nothing wrong with nudity, nudity’s normal," he told the publication. He went on to share his love for Pokémon cards and comic books, being an avid collector of the two. "This is like a way for me to get some income so that I can buy that Pokémon card that I really want," he said, adding that a Trophy card, which can cost up to six figures, will be in his pocket "before the year's end." Sign up for our free Indy100 weekly newsletter While Marston is seemingly enjoying his new hustle, his wife Anna isn't yet sold on the idea. "She’s not crazy about me being on OnlyFans," he suggested. "She would rather me not be on OnlyFans but what’s more important to her is me pursuing my dreams or my interests — taking risks." However, he went on to justify his decision by calling it a "long-term avenue for further financial security." Marston, who identifies as "bisexual AF" opened up about being supportive of each other's interests. "If she wanted to do an open relationship, we’ll talk about it. If she wanted to do anything sexual, that’s a conversation that we have no matter what, and we are always having it," he said. "I think we grew up with parents who, like, maybe the father could stray, or it was more acceptable for the male to do whatever they want. That’s not — I don’t believe in that."

Britney Spears fans are stunned to learn that her iconic hit 'Toxic' could be about an Irish vet. Making waves in the charts back in 2003, the single derives from the pop star's fourth studio album, In the Zone. It was initially offered to Kylie Minogue, who turned it down. It explores the connection and addiction to a toxic lover. Well now, in one of the most bizarre crossovers and what certainly wasn't on our 2023 bingo cards, it appears as though the track could be about Supervet Dr Noel Fitzpatrick. The song was written by Cathy Dennis, who was dating the vet at the time. Sign up for our free Indy100 weekly newsletter "The man who inspired the Britney Spears track 'Toxic' was someone that the song’s co-writer Cathy Dennis had been dating in the early 2000s, who broke up with her in 2003: Noel Fitzpatrick," Pop B*tch claimed. "'It’s unlikely you’d have known who he was at the time (unless you had a sick spaniel) but he’s better known to most people nowadays as Channel 4 ’s Supervet!" The pair said to have met when Cathy took in her Labrador Charlie to his surgery. Britney Spears - Toxic (Official HD Video) www.youtube.com This isn't the first time the rumours have surfaced, either... In an older episode of This Morning, Holly Willoughby candidly asked the famed vet whether he believed 'Toxic' was about him. Noel replied: "You may have to ask Kylie Minogue whether 'I Can't Get You Out Of My Head' is written about me." It didn't take long for the discovery to be shared across social media, with one Twitter user writing: "I still can’t get over 'Toxic' by Britney Spears is about the Supervet." Another chimed in: "I’m still not over 'Toxic' being about Noel Fitzpatrick." Have your say in our news democracy.
