Rihanna is youngest self-made billionaire in the US
The 34-year-old singer made her debut on Forbes’ annual billionaire’s list in April as the world’s richest female musician, and now she’s been ranked 21st on the financial bible’s list of the richest self-made women in the country. The ‘Love on the Brain’ singer is worth around $1.4 million, with a self-made score of 10 – meaning she “would need to have been born into poverty or the lower middle class, and faced adversity such as abuse, being left an orphan or forced to work low-paying jobs” – having generated her fortune herself, largely thanks to her Fenty Beauty cosmetics line, which generated over $550 million in revenue in 2020.

What is #GentleMinions and why is it trending on Twitter?
The fifth installment of the ‘Despicable Me’ franchise, ‘Minions: The Rise of Gru’ hit the theatres worldwide on July 1. In the next few days, a series of TikTok videos showing large groups of teenage boys riding up escalators in a black-and-white procession of moviegoers went viral. This led to the birth of the #GentleMinions movement, where large groups of people went to watch the movie clad in suits. While it was seemingly harmless at first, and even good for the sales of the movie, the trend turned problematic when these groups became involved in misbehaviour at the theatres. There were reports of popcorn being thrown in the air, hitting the other watchers, wasting food, and unnecessarily littering the auditoriums. In one UK theatre, a moviegoer threw a banana at the screen, thereby damaging it. Due to this trend taking a turn towards vandalism, UK theatres have started banning teenagers…

Amber Heard’s lawyers seek to overturn Johnny Depp’s defamation verdict
Washington: Hollywood star Amber Heard’s legal team submitted a motion Friday demanding that the decision in her ex-husband Johnny Depp’s defamation trial be overturned, including the $10.35 million in damages given to Depp by the jury. According to Variety, in addition to arguing that the verdict is not supported by evidence, Heard’s attorneys request that the Fairfax County Circuit Court “investigate improper juror service,” claiming that public information indicates that one of the jurors who served during the trial was born in 1970, despite court officials listing their birth year as 1945. “This discrepancy raises the question of whether Juror 15 actually received a summons for jury duty and was properly vetted by the court to serve on the jury,” Heard’s lawyers wrote. Heard’s legal team also claims that the jury’s $10.35 million judgement on the actress is “inconsistent and irreconcilable” with the jury’s determination that both she and Depp defamed…
