Kanye West wax figure removed from public view at Madame Tussauds
Madame Tussauds has removed its wax figure of Kanye West from public view – becoming the latest institution to effectively “drop” the US rapper following antisemitic and anti-black remarks. The landmark London museum moved the figure of the rapper – who has legally changed his name to Ye – to an archive room, a symbolic representation of his fall from grace over the past few days, during which he lost his talent representation, connections to major fashion houses and other lucrative relationships. As sportswear brand Adidas ended its estimated €250m partnership with Ye, reportedly costing him his billionaire status, many are asking if the music and fashion mogul’s decades-long career is over. “Ye’s figure has been retired from the attraction floor to our archive,” a spokeswoman for Madame Tussauds London said. “Each profile earns their place at Madame Tussauds London and we listen to our guests and the public on who they expect…

Kerry Katona turns her knickers ‘inside out three times’ before changing them
The 42-year-old star had read a report which claimed that women need to be replacing their lingerie sets almost twice a year but claimed that sort of behaviour is “bad for the environment” and is a “waste of money.” She said: “There’s been a report saying that underwear has an expiry date, with experts advising we should replace bras and knickers every six to eight months. That’s a load of nonsense – I definitely don’t do that. I think it’s bad for the environment and a waste of money. I’d rather save the environment and wear the same pair of knickers and turn them inside out three times!” The former Atomic Kitten singer – who claims to have made more than £1 million by selling racy images on OnlyFans – went on to explain that she does occasionally “treat” herself to a pair of knickers, but hasn’t done so in…

Black Adam Review: Dwayne Johnson-starrer hits the rocks
Hyderabad: Director Jaume Collet-Serra is no stranger to action movies. Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson is no stranger to action either. When both get together, you expect Diwali to come a few days early. Tragically it does not. It is more like the rain playing spoilsport on the day of Diwali. DC and Warner Bros have got their strategy wrong. So wrong. Though an origin story, neither does it have the punch that Nolan’s Batman Begins had nor the charisma of Snyder’s Man of Steel. To the uninitiated, the movie is based on a DC Comics character. The film opens with a complicated prologue (one that is entirely necessary for all except the most invested fans of the DC Comics franchise from which Black Adam has sprung). Kahndaq is a fictional country somewhere in the Middle East. Here you have Teth-Adam aka Black Adam (Dwayne) with powers beyond those of any mortal. He has been blessed with…
