Jordan Peterson has left the internet baffled after seemingly reciting a speech from a James Bond film as though it were historical fact. The controversial commentator appeared on This Weekend Past, where he explained the 'Rat King' theory, after host, Theo Von, revealed it was his nickname. "I don't know if people ever did this, but imagine your village is full of rats. So you go catch 10 rats and throw them in a pit... soon there is one rat because he gets all the other rats, he's a champ", he said. However, James Bond fans noticed that it was awfully similar to a speech from the villain in Skyfall. Awkward. Sign up to our free Indy100 weekly newsletter

When you've got to go, you've got to go but unfortunately for Robbie Williams, this happened to him while on stage where he ended up pooping his pants. The Take That singer recalled the time back in 2011 when he had “horrendous” food poisoning, which put him in the "precarious position of not being able to 'trust a fart'. In a post to Instagram, the 49-year-old detailed the experience at length how he needed to pass gas during the opening song “Let Me Entertain You," and he wasn't feeling too good. "So, I had food poisoning once on the Take That tour.*When I rejoined It was Horrendous. It felt like death," he wrote. "We unfortunately had to cancel a show in Denmark because of it. I still feel bad." "Anyway, A few days later we were playing at the Ajax stadium in Amsterdam. "Still not anywhere near well enough I ventured to the stage. I was in the precarious position of not being able to 'trust a fart'. "Which was unfortunate because that’s what I needed to do during my opening song. Let me Entertain you." When this move backfired, the Angels singer had to remain professional during the song. "As I’m sure you can imagine it didn’t remain just a fart. But ever the pro I retained my composure and committed to the performance 100%" Williams explained. "Because of the picture I’ve just painted I’m sure you have questions. But let’s just let sleeping logs lie for now," he joked. "A gig parp any other time can be liberating." Meanwhile, Netflix has announced a four-part documentary series on Williams is coming out later this year which will provide an "intimate look at the entertainer."

Woody Allen's Coup De Chance premiere at Venice Film Festival was hit with a group of topless protestors, who were eventually led away from the event. The group of around 15 people were captured on video chanting "no rape culture" while standing outside the Palazzo del Cinema venue. Allen's daughter, Dylan, has previously accused him of sexually abusing her when she was a child – claims he denies. The protestors were reportedly from several Italian groups, said to include feminist groups Non Una Di Meno and smaller collectives: Cso Morion, Spina Collective, Squeert Collective and Cso Pedro. It comes after the 87-year-old dismissed cancel culture as "silly" before saying there was "nothing in" the allegations put against him. When asked by an audience in Venice whether he felt that he had been cancelled he said: "I just find that all so silly. I don’t think about it. I don’t know what it means to be cancelled." Allen went on to discuss the MeToo movement, saying: "I think any movement where there’s actual benefit, where it does something positive – let’s say for women – is a good thing." He added: "It’s silly when it’s not really a feminist issue or an issue of unfairness to women. When it’s being too extreme in trying to make it into an issue when, in fact, most people would not regard it as any kind of offensive situation." The director once again denied child abuse allegations put against him. "There was nothing in it," he said. "The fact that it lingers on always makes me think that maybe people like the idea that it lingers on." When asked when he had any contact with Dylan or her brother, Allen said: "No. Always willing to, but no." Sign up for our free Indy100 weekly newsletter Have your say in our news democracy.

Olivia Rodrigo has responded to rumours her song 'Vampire' is about her speculated feud with fellow pop star Taylor Swift. The 20-year-old musician addressed the fan theory that her first single off her sophomore album GUTS, was about the 'Anti-Hero' singer in a new interview with The Guardian. In the song, one line of the chorus goes: "bloodsucker, fame fucker, bleedin’ me dry like a goddamn vampire!” Many believe this to be a reference to Swift over their rumoured fallout over song credit where Rodrigo's song 'Deja Vu' had similarities to 'Cruel Summer.' Rodrigo noted the bridge was "inspired" by Swift's Lover album track and Olivia ended up giving Swift 50 per cent of the credits and royalties and similarly also gave credits and royalties to Paramore as her hit song 'Good 4 U' was compared to the band's popular track 'Misery Business.' When asked about this possible meaning for her song, Rodrigo shared her "surprise" at this interpretation. "I was very surprised when people thought that," she told The Guardian. "How do I answer this? I mean, I never want to say who any of my songs are about." “I’ve never done that before in my career and probably won’t.” She added: "I think it’s better to not pigeonhole a song to being about this one thing.” Here's how fans have been reacting to Rodrigo's comments, and opinions on the matter are mixed: On a similar topic, Roderigo how this experience from her Grammy Award-winning debut album SOUR wasn't something she wasn't over worried about when making GUTS. “I was so green as to how the music industry worked, the litigious side … I feel like now I know so much more about the industry and I just feel … better equipped in that regard. It wasn’t something I thought about too much," she explained. Rodrigo's new album GUTS is set to be released on September 8.

It all began when celebrity gossip account, Deuxmoi, said that the pair had been spotted on a date together, and also perhaps working together on Tim Burton's Beetlejuice 2. However, the 20-year-old Wednesday actor was quick to dispel these rumours connecting her to the 60-year-old Hollywood veteran in an Instagram Story. “This is so ridiculous I can’t even laugh," Ortega told her 40m followers. “I have never met or worked with Johnny Depp in my life. Please stop spreading lies and leave us alone.” Meanwhile, Depp's camp has also vehemently shut down these rumours too, describing how the Pirates of the Caribbean actor was "appalled" by them. His rep told NME: “Mr. Depp has no personal or professional relationship with Ms. Ortega whatsoever. He has never met her or spoken to her. “He is not involved in any project with her, nor does he intend to be. He is appalled by these baseless and malicious rumours that are intended to harm his reputation and career.” Beetlejuice 2 is set to see Ortega play the daughter of Lydia Deetz, the role famously played by Winona Ryder in the original 1988 film, while Ryder and Michael Keaton will also reprise their roles for the sequel. The film is expected to be released on September 6 2024. Sign up to our free Indy100 weekly newsletter Have your say in our news democracy.

Kanye West and his rumoured wife Bianca Censori have been banned from a Venice boat company for life following their antics last month. West, who legally changed his name to Ye in 2021, was spotted on board the water taxi last month with his bare bottom exposed. Censori seemingly rested her head on his lap. Venezia Turismo Motoscafi has since revealed the couple will "no longer be welcome" on any of their boats. In a statement, the company said staff were "completely unaware" West had dropped his pants, as they were focusing on water traffic. "The driver had to keep a lookout for traffic and did not see these obscenities," they said. "If this had happened, he would have immediately disembarked and reported the transgressors to those in authority." They also went on to call out a "third person on board the taxi" who "obstructed the captain’s view" towards the back of the boat. It wasn't just the antics on board that caused a storm during their Italian getaway. Many people called out Censori's "offensive" outfits, some calling for her to be arrested for "public indecency". "I wish the police would arrest these two for their ignorant behaviour. They are making a mockery of the country," one furious X/Twitter user wrote, while another added: "Why won't the Italian government police or someone stop them?" Tourism website CIU Travel claims: "Walking around in beach attire or, worse, shirtless, is a huge no-no in Italy, unless you have your feet buried deep in the sand."

Nina Agdal, the model and fiancée of Logan Paul, has been trending on social media due to an explicit video which people have claimed features her. However, it has been reported that the clip does not show Agdal. Drama Alert posted a picture of Agdal and Paul on Twitter, adding the caption: “Leaked explicit video of Logan Paul’s fiancé is NOT real, DramaAlert has confirmed. “The video is not of Nina Agdal, but of a different girl.” Paul and Agdal have not yet commented on the matter. The clip and discourse around it is thought to be connected to the fight between mixed martial artist Dillon Danis and Paul in Manchester in October, which will be on the same card as KSI vs Tommy Fury. The pair have clashed repeatedly on Twitter, with Danis making claims about Paul and Agdal’s private life. Danis has claimed the pair have had arguments over the MMA fighter’s recent tweets. He wrote last month: “Told Logan to his face he’s marrying a sl** and he didn’t do sh** about it.” He added: “Had his whole team and me in there alone, shows you the kind of man he is.” Danis also appeared on the Full Send podcast and denied going too far with the recent posts. “Everything’s public. It’s not like I’m getting her ex-boyfriends sending me pictures of her in bed – that would be pretty f***ed up, I would imagine, right? “[It’s] public s*** that she can’t handle, that she used in her past, that’s not my problem,” he said. The fighter also claimed he’s “in [Paul’s] head” in the run-up to their fight, adding: “I can’t say too much but he’s really thinking about pulling out [of] the fight because of how personal it’s getting. “There’s definitely trouble in paradise.” Sign up for our free Indy100 weekly newsletter Have your say in our news democracy.
