Daniel Craig looks like he was born to wear a suit. As James Bond, he pulled off daring stunts in a three-piece and helped save the world in some of the finest Savile Row custom fits, but his latest look has got people talking more than most. The actor, who officially retired from the role of 007 in 2021 with No Time To Die, recently appeared in a new YouTube video with GQ to talk about all things watches. Craig is well known for wearing Omega watches, which were permanently on his wrist during his tenure as Bond. But while the extensive interview about his collection will have pleased horology geeks everywhere, it was his look that caught the eye of a lot of viewers. Inside Daniel Craig's Iconic James Bond Watch Collection | Dialed In | Esquire www.youtube.com As well as a stylish suit, he was also seen wearing thin frame glasses – and many compared the look to that of a bureaucratic European politician. It's one of 2023's unlikeliest memes, with one writing: "He looks like he’s about to announce a new capital requirement on large European banks." Another said: "Wishing Daniël de Kroog and his DVV luck in today’s election, he’s exactly the kind of fresh face the Netherlands needs right now." It just shows that nothing is safe from internet meme culture - not even James Bond himself.

Trisha Paytas has announced they are pregnant with their second baby - and has already picked out a unique name for their unborn child. Taking to Instagram, the 35-year-old controversial YouTuber - who identifies as non-binary and uses she/they pronouns - shared the news that they and husband Moses Hacmon are going to be parents again. "?Thankful? Baby #2 coming May 2024," Paytas wrote as the post caption, with snaps of the couple together holding sonogram photos along with their one-year-old daughter Malibu Barbie. Paytas also revealed the name of baby number two in a TikTok video that showed some behind-the-scenes clips of the photoshoot. It appears the expectant parents were inspired by the King of Rock 'n' Roll himself when choosing the name. "We did already announce the baby's name is going to be Elvis, while we don't know the gender yet - boy or girl - we're having baby Elvis and we couldn't be more excited," they said. @trishlikefish88 Paytas who gave birth to Malibu Barbie on September 14 last year and around this time a bizarre conspiracy theory circulated online that they had already given birth and that the baby was the reincarnation of Elizabeth II who passed away on September 8. On their podcast 'Just Trish,' the social media star who addressed this once more after announcing their second pregnancy - as they hope another royal death doesn't coincide with their birth once more. "Please no royalty die in May I swear to goodness if the King dies or something and they say it's my baby," they said. "I have the fear of the royal family at all times." To which Hacmon jokingly interjected: "We are giving birth to the King," referencing the fact that they're naming their baby Elvis. Of course, the announcement prompted memes online about how concerned King Charles should be about Paytas being pregnant again.

Premier League youth footballer-turned-porn star Oliver Spedding has died at the age of 34. The tragedy comes just weeks after Spedding, better known on social media as Damian Oliver, hit headlines for falsely claiming that his wife, adult star Sophie Anderson, was dead. Whilst the circumstances surrounding Spedding’s death have not yet been confirmed, it is largely accepted that, this time, the news is true. On Saturday, Spedding’s former club Croydon FC released a statement, describing him as a “much-loved individual who always gave his utmost effort for the team.” "Oliver will be hugely missed by everyone at the club and our thoughts are with his family and friends at this difficult time,” they added. The club also held a minute’s silence ahead of their match against Meridian VP. Friends and ex-colleagues have paid tributes to the former sportsman, while fans have shared their shock at the terrible real-life plot twist. Back in September, Spedding announced that Anderson, 35, had “died unfortunately,” and even provided details of her funeral. In one X/Twitter reply, he insisted that he “hadn’t lied” about the “bad news”, adding that people could pay their respects at a crematorium in Bromley, southeast London, on 12 September. However, the day after the cremation that never was, the former footballer tweeted a lengthy statement, revealing that he had “20 hours in a cell because of the stupid hoax”. He continued: “I cannot say anything more as part of my bail conditions but it was just a silly drunken joke.” He then dropped two bombshells, writing that he and Anderson were having a baby and that they had just got married. “We are unbreakable,” he added. The message was swiftly followed up by a photo showing him standing beside Anderson, apparently during their wedding, which he said took place at the Little White Chapel in Las Vegas. Anderson who, while all of this was playing out, had been silent on social media, later supported Spedding’s claims by sharing the same wedding photo to her Twitter/X account. Over the subsequent weeks, the two of them posted explicit content of each other – both separately and together – including an X-rated spoof of the film Scream for Halloween. The last time Spedding posted to social media was around 12 November, with Anderson last writing on Twitter/X last week. Her post was about their marriage, which she said she’d “never forget”. Whilst the porn icon has yet to address the “love of her life’s” passing, tributes have been pouring in from admirers. Croydon FC manager Liam Giles shared his devastation at the “heartbreaking news", writing on X/Twitter: "Ollie was a warrior on the pitch and gave 100 per cent every time he represented Croydon FC. "We spoke a couple of weeks ago about him getting back into football. "I hope you find your peace, mate - sleep tight." His apparent desire to return to sport is perhaps unsurprising, given admissions he’s made about his career change in the past. Spedding said he never would have envisaged a career in the adult industry as a kid hanging out in south-east London gangs, but fell into it after escaping an abusive relationship. Speaking on the ‘Anything Goes with James English' podcast last year, the one-time athlete, who played for Crystal Palace academy in his youth, lamented how he “let himself down” at the age of 17 by “going off the rails” He admitted that he ended up in prison after his grandmother died, and could have made more of his other talents, instead of chasing a name for himself in porn. “When I was at Crystal Palace, if I’d have stayed with them, then I could have been earning a lot more playing football. I used to fight as well, maybe that could have gone somewhere,” he said. “I was good at both [of those] things, but being a porn star, I thought that would be just as good. But it’s not as good as people think.” Still, it wasn’t all bad. Spedding met Anderson through the industry, and they set up their own blue movie production company. Acknowledging that he could never have dreamed that “one of the biggest porn stars in the country” would be his “soulmate”, he said Anderson was “the first person that I feel like I've ever had the ultimate connection with – she is like my twin”. “We're so compatible,” he added in his ‘Anything Goes’ interview. anders“I've never had anyone that connects on so many different levels like that.” Sign up for our free Indy100 weekly newsletter Have your say in our news democracy.

Brad Pitt has reportedly come under fire from his adopted son in a scathing post on Instagram. Pax Thien Jolie-Pitt, the 19-year-old adopted son of Pitt and Angelina Jolie, is said to have hit out at the actor by calling him an "awful human being" and a "world-class a**hole". The post is said to have been posted on Father’s Day in 2020, when Jolie-Pitt was just 16. He reportedly wrote at the time: "Happy Father's Day to this world-class a***hole"! "You time and time and again prove yourself to be a terrible and despicable person. "You have no consideration or empathy toward your 4 youngest children who tremble in fear when in your presence. You will never understand the damage you have done to my family because you are incapable of doing so. "You have made the lives of those closest to me a constant hell. You may tell yourself and the world whatever you want, but the truth will come to light someday. "So, Happy Father's Day, you f***ing awful human being!" Pax was adopted from a Vietnamese orphanage near Ho Chi Minh City in 2012. He is one of six children the former couple have together, along with Maddox, Zahara, Shiloh, Vivienne and Knox. The comment was reportedly posted to Pax’s Instagram story, with resurfaced screenshots having gone viral this week, MailOnline reports. Pitt and Jolie split after six years of marriage in 2016. Jolie cited “irreconcilable differences” between them when filing for divorce. Pitt was also investigated by the FBI and the Los Angeles Department of Children and Family Services over child abuse allegations following an elleged altercation with son Maddox on a private jet five days before Jolie filed for divorce. Pitt denied any allegations of any abuse against his children, a source close to the actor said at the time. Pitt was subsequently cleared by the Los Angeles County Department of Children and Family Services after being investigated. Then, in 2022, a detailed account of what transpired on the private plane was made public after FBI records were leaked to the press. According to the documents, Jolie told investigating officers that Pitt’s actions during the flight from France to Los Angeles frightened their children, aged between 8 and 15 at the time. Jolie also said that Pitt allegedly lunged at one of their kids after they called him a “prick”, adding she had to hold him back “in a choke hold”.

The world was left baffled last week when Snoop Dogg finally announced he was 'giving up smoke' - but all is not as it seems. After days of mystery surrounding the announcement, with fans believing the rapper had given up smoking weed, he's finally come clean, revealing it to be part of a PR stunt. Snoop was actually promoting Solo's smokeless stoves, and posted a video of himself toasting marshmallows using the gadget. "I know what you're thinking: Snoop! Smoke is kind of your whole thing! But I'm done with it," the hip-hop star said in the advert. "Done with the coughing and my clothes smelling all sticky icky. I'm going smokeless. Sign up to our free Indy100 weekly newsletter

Harry Styles broke the internet when photos emerged of his new buzzcut, and it provoked a mixed reaction in his fanbase - but now his mum has jumped to his defence. There have been a number of memes and comparisons that have circulated online in reaction to Styles shaving his head - for example his likeness being compared to Ian Beale from EastEnders. It's clear this attention hasn't unnoticed by the mother of the 'As It Was' singer, Anne Twist who took to Instagram to support her son and urged fans to TPWK [Treat People With Kindness] - which also a popular phase and song from Styles. In an Instagram post, Twist wrote: “When you consider that H has a legacy of kindness and inclusion, has always made every effort to make everyone feel seen and appreciated for exactly who they are... there’s an irony in the negativity he’s been shown for having a haircut." “Sorry but I don’t get it," she added. The post included a clear snap of Styles with his shaved head, followed by a screenshot of a New York Post headline that reads: "Harry Styles fans shocked over shaved head reveal: ‘Ruined my entire life’." “Let’s uncrap that,” Twist’s image reads, as underneath the headline is changed to “Breaking news: It’s hair! It’s his! Also it will grow back. If he wants.” Since sharing the post to her 2.6m followers, fans of Styles have shared their support in the comments. One person said: "Love it, any mom would feel the same. Such a talented young man, Harry has it all! Move forward with pride, ignore the negative!" "Fr it's just hair, chill people. He's on a break! Let him chill," another person agreed. Someone else added: "Why judge him just for a haircut? It’s his life, his hair, his decision. Sadly people lost the actual message of Treat People With Kindness." "TELL THEM ANNE!!!! a lot of noise considering this guy just wants to quietly get on w his life of joy and love and kindness," a fourth person commented.

Jamie Lynn Spears is a campmate on this year's I'm a Celebrity Get Me Out of Here! but her introduction video where she says what she is best known for has left viewers raising their eyebrows. In the clip, the 32-year-old - who is the younger sister of a certain pop star - introduces herself by name and adds that she is "best known for being an actress and singer". While some may recognise her from her Nickelodeon show Zoey 101 from back in the day (2005-2008), most of us know as Britney Spears's little sister. Meanwhile, Spears also explained her reason for going into the jungle. "There is literally every misconception you can have on a person about me so I don’t take any of it seriously," she said. “But I do think going on I’m A Celebrity will be a nice way for people to see the real me. This is an opportunity to be myself and do something really cool and have some awesome experiences in the meantime.” However, viewers quickly took to social media to roast Spears for her "best known" comment, and pointing out that Spears' fellow campmates had referred to her as "Britney's sister". So how does Spears feel about the Bushtucker Trials? "Everything I have seen I have been afraid of. Absolutely every one of these trials I am dreading. I haven’t looked at any of them and thought, ‘Oh cool, I could do that one’. This is going to be terrifying," she said. Following last night's show, viewers shared how they will be voting for Spears to do the dreaded trials - so it looks like she could be in for a bumpy ride in the jungle... Well good thing Spears has shared in her pre-jungle interview that her best quality is "the fact that it takes a lot to hurt [her] feelings". "Unless you are my children or my immediate family, nothing is going to hurt me. I can take a lot of s*** and it doesn’t get me down, so I really think it’s a good quality to have in a place where a lot of stuff is thrown at you!" she said. I'm a Celebrity Get Me Out of Here! is on every night except Saturdays at 9pm on ITV1 and ITVX.

Musician Jack Antonoff is facing backlash after fans called him "rude" towards comedian Amelia Dimoldenberg during an interview at the 2023 GQ Man of the Year Awards. Dimoldenberg, best known for her interview series Chicken Shop Date's and her awkward interview style, was chatting to Antonoff - best known for his collaborations with artists such as Taylor Swift and Lana Del Rey - on the red carpet, saying it was "nice to meet him", whilst Antonoff appeared to ignore her and look at the crowd. Things only got worse when Dimoldenberg asked the songwriter if his glasses were "real." "Of course they are real," he replied. "That's extremely f**king offensive." Dimodlenberg chuckled at his comment, before Antonoff said, slightly chuckling himself, "That's like asking, 'Are you a piece of s**t? Are you a piece of s**t?" The whole time Antonoff seems to be avoiding Dimoldenberg's gaze. @pagesix Jack Antonoff is facing backlash for being “rude” to comedian Amelia Dimoldenberg during an interview at the 2023 GQ Man of the Year Awards. More details at the link in our bio. On social media, many branded the musician "rude". "What was his problem?" Asked one viewer under a TikTok of the interview. "At first I thought it was just banter but at the end he was rude." Wrote another. However, some said he was just trying to match Dimoldenberg's interview style and it just didn't land great. GQ have since released another clip of the pair's interview that is a lot less awkward. With Antonoff laughing and having a discussion with Dimoldenberg. @britishgq "More people are dead than alive." Amelia Dimoldenberg quizzes Jack Antonoff over traffic, collaborating with a dead artist and the British sense of humour at #GQMOTY. #GQMOTYxBOSS #JackAntonoff The new clip made fans quick to forgive Antonoff, blaming the original backlash on bad editing. "No because I'm kind of convinced with that first clip someone just has it out for him because this is a whole different vibe now", one commenter wrote. So it seems Antonoff is off the hook for now.

Few are worthy of the title influencer like Matilda Djerf. An icon for many young women around the globe, fans of the 26-year-old have gone crazy for her style, which explains why her brand, Djerf Avenue, has made millions of dollars. Djerf founded her clothing brand in 2019 with her partner and CEO Rasmus Johansson. Since 2019 Djerf Avenue has gone beyond clothes, releasing accessories and homeware which have been adored by fans. She is calling me from her office, I compliment her on her outfit - from Djerf Avenue, of course - and she thanks me, explaining that it's "forever blazer" day at the office, an initiative from the social media team for all to wear the company's forever blazers, a customer favourite. She looks put together and cheery, the image we see on social media does not seem a fake one, her golden hair intact as always. Our conversation starts with us talking about her life before Djerf Avenue and internet fame. "I come from a small town, if you dress up or if you dress a little bit differently than the rest of people, it's a little bit frowned upon." But it is Djerf's style that has got her where she is today, her daring to be different generated $34 million in revenue last year for her brand. And the hype around Djerf and her clothes doesn't look as though it's dying down anytime soon. It's not easy to be so fashionable that the majority of young women want to replicate your style. I wanted to find out what influenced the fashion influencer. Apart from Hannah Montanna, which I think all women who grew up watching the Disney show can relate to, Djerf speaks fondly of her mother, Ulrika, who features prominently on both Djerf's social media and Djerf Avenue's marketing. "My mum has always been my fashion icon, not caring what other people think," she tells me. "She does her own thing. Which has inspired to do my own thing!" Family is clearly central to how Djerf lives her life, they constantly feature on her social media, with her parents and sister often modelling Djerf Avenue's clothes. "I'm a true homebody, I've always enjoyed just being surrounded by my family," she says with a grin on her face, telling me about her childhood and family vacations. "Since the start [of Djerf Avenue] they've always been my biggest cheerleaders." The early days of Djerf Avenue was just Matilda and her partner Rasmus. They had no team and did everything themselves, but Matilda's family were there to help. "When we did our first shoot they [Djerf's parents] came with us, they've seen everything, they even helped us pack orders for the first few months." With over 3 million followers on Instagram, it can be hard to stay grounded within yourself as you're bombarded by the opinions of millions of strangers online. "The support of my friends and family is all I really need," she tells me. "I'm so grateful to have a safe space." Djerf's family and friends' support was prominent just a few months back when Djerf Avenue hosted a pop-up store in New York, accompanied by their first-ever fashion show for their Remake Collection, which was hosted at the Guggenheim Museum. "The possibilities in New York just felt endless," she says as she explains her choice of New York for the brand's third pop-up (their first was held in LA last year and their second in Stockholm earlier this year). "But whenever we do something in person it feels daunting. I'm always really nervous that nobody's going to show up or nobody's going to like it." Despite Djerf's nerves, it seemed she had nothing to worry about. Across the three days the pop-up was open (Aug 31 - Sept 2), social media was flooded with pictures of those queuing up to purchase both fan-favourite items and pop-up exclusives. "The team work so hard to make it happen, we pour so much love, energy and time into every single project that we do," and I can tell through the screen. Djerf is evidently animated and passionate about her business and the team that helps make everything run smoothly. But despite the nervous energy that inevitably comes with such enormous projects, Djerf trusts the community she's built up over the years. "Our community is the most loving community and I know they will show up. It's what makes me always want to make sure we're doing everything we can to give our community the best possible experience." "I think about how much time these people are taking from their lives to stand in line at our pop-ups, and they spend their money on our items, so I never want to fall short. The pressure is really daunting, but it gets me going." The pop-up was followed by a fashion show at the Guggenheim Museum on September 3, where the brand debuted its Remake Collection. The models were fans of Djerf Avenue (including Matilda's mum) and showcased diversity at its centre. "I wanted to show the fashion world, you don't need to look one kind of way to be able to walk a runway," she explains. "We wanted to capture the beauty of our individual community members." "I want to meet our UK customers!" She exclaimed. "If it gets to September next year with no news you need to message me 'Matilda where's the pop up!'" I assure her, and on behalf of all UK Djerf Avenue customers, to message her if this is the case. "But there's so many places in the world we want to go, it's hard to narrow it down." Naturally, I had to use my opportunity to ask about any upcoming collections or releases, and Matilda managed to tell me so much and so little at the same time. "We're just getting started, we're actually going into a completely new category which I'm really excited about, and that will be launching around Spring 2024. It's been years in the making." "On top of that we're doing our first-ever collaboration with a person this year. That's coming up very, very soon!" Finally, as our conversation draws to a close I ask her if there are any goals she has for herself or Djerf Avenue in the next five years. And in typical Matilda Djerf fashion, she tells me: "I've never had like, a three-year plan or a five-year plan. Where was I even five years ago?" "So much happens even in a month, so it's so hard to dream up where I will be in five years. But really, I'm always thinking about what I can do to give back. I want people, especially young women entrepreneurs, to look up to me. I want to inspire." Sign up to our free Indy100 weekly newsletter Have your say in our news democracy.

The Latin Grammy's took place on Friday night and has been hailed for an epic piece on trolling as Shakira was awarded 'Best Song of the Year' for her diss track on ex Gerard Pique - which was presented to her by his former football rival Sergio Ramos. If you've been keeping track of the epic break-up between Shakira and Pique, you'll know that they separated in June last year after 11 years together, with the footballer being accused of cheating on the Colombian pop star. The break-up has hardly been peaceful with the former lovers using any opportunity they can to take very public digs at each other. The most notable of these digs is Shakira's record-breaking diss track about the former Barcelona and Spain defender 'BZRP Music Session #53.' The song, which is a collaboration with Karol G, also won Best Pop Song but it was the appearance of Ramos at the event in Seville, which really got people talking. Ramos, who played with Pique for the Spanish national team, winning both the World Cup and the Euros, would have been fierce rivals on the pitch too having clashed many times while playing for Real Madrid and Barcelona respectively. Although the interaction between the pair wasn't awkward, people couldn't help but revel in the scenes that were unfolding before their eyes. During her acceptance speech, the 46-year-old singer spoke of "tough moments" adding: "I also want to share this with my Spanish audience, who has been there with me through the good and bad times." "In those hard and tough moments I've experienced here in this country, I have loved so much but at no moment has stopped giving me love and support." Pique retired from football in November 2022 having played more than 600 games for Barcelona. Ramos, meanwhile, is still playing having recently rejoined Sevilla having enjoyed a glittering spell at Real Madrid before joining Paris Saint-Germain in 2021.

He may be one of Hollywood's legendary directors, but Martin Scorsese has also proven to be a big hit on TikTok - and now he has claimed to have been "tricked" into becoming a viral sensation. The 80-year-old has directed some of the iconic films of our time such as Shutter Island (2010), Goodfellas (1990), and The Wolf of Wall Street(2013), to name just a few. But recently, Scorsese has found a new audience on TikTok who love seeing him guess the meaning of slang words, ranking movies, guess feminine hygiene products or just generally acting like a 'silly goose.' @francescascorsese He’s a certified silly goose. ??#CapCut #fyp #trailer #martinscorsese #scorsese #bestdad #bestdadever #sillygoose And we all have Francesca Scorsese to thank - Scorsese's 24-year-old daughter who has roped her dad into making some entertaining content. Now, the director has jokingly claimed his daughter "tricked" into becoming a viral star. “I was tricked into that,” the director told the LA Times. “That was a trick. I didn’t know those things would go viral. They say it’s viral. I didn’t know.” “I was just doing it in the other room with her. I don’t know what they’re going to do. They always have those iPhone cameras in their hands. You’re not aware. I honestly did not know she was going to post it. They use the words ‘post it’, right?” Perhaps Scorsese can be convinced to make a TikTok account of his own, he would certainly have the audience to become an influencer if he wants to give up the day job...
