U.S. President Donald Trump praised Nicki Minaj's "beautiful" bottom during a bizarre speech at a rally in Michigan on Sunday.
The Starships rapper, who is a vocal supporter of the U.S. leader, joined Trump on his plane, Air Force One, and on stage at the pre-midterms rally in Port Huron.
During his speech, Trump made cheeky comments about Minaj's rear end as he explained his recent remarks about Republican Ohio senator Jon Husted's derriere.
"By the way, I looked at one ***** of a beautiful a*s before - Nicki Minaj," Trump said, as the crowd cheered. "That's hard to miss. That - stand up! That's hard to miss."
Minaj stood up and turned around to face the audience. After she sat back down, Trump continued, "OK, I'm going to get back to my story, Nicki. I hope Nicki wasn't insulted, but we love Nicki. She's been with us for a long time."
Earlier in the rally, the Pound the Alarm singer pledged her continued support of Trump, telling him that it is an "honour to stand with you every single time" and that he will have her backing "forever and ever".

We always need to remember that actors are not the characters they portray, no matter how well they sell the role. They're just acting, after all, not showing their true colors. So finding out an actor that normally plays villains is actually a decent person shouldn't be surprising.
And no, it isn't surprising, but it is incredibly funny. There may be something to someone needing to be nice and empathic enough to understand how evil someone can be. These are the actors that are often typecasted as villains, while being incredibly decent persons themselves.
IMDb
He has a face built for plotting against the hero. From playing international spies to creepy doctors, he keeps getting cast in villainous roles, but colleagues always point out that he is incredibly down to earth.

Emma Roberts gave her strapless Alex Perry sequin gown a Wild West twist with her choice of accessories. The "We're the Millers" actress attended the Clarins x F1 celebration on October 24. Her outfit brought a fresh perspective to eveningwear, blending high-octane red-carpet glamour with playful personality. Photos and videos of her look have since gone viral online.
Posing against a muted champagne backdrop at the Clarins x F1 party, Emma Roberts stood out in a sequin Alex Perry dress. Covered entirely in densely packed sequins, the garment caught the ambient light from every angle, reflecting deep chocolate-brown and warm copper tones with every movement.
The gown featured a clean, straight-across strapless neckline that highlighted her bare shoulders and arms. Further, the sculpted torso skimmed her figure before flowing into a long, floor-sweeping column skirt.
The rich bronze palette added unexpected depth and warmth that harmonized beautifully with her golden-blonde hair and glowing skin.
Roberts added a Western twist to the clean lines of her gown with a hard-shell from Judith Leiber. Known as the Cowboy Hat, Cheyenne featured the iconic shape of a Western cowboy hat and was fully encrusted with glittering champagne-gold crystals.

AA Milne's first Pooh book was published a century ago in October 1926. Generations of children loved it, but its inspiration, the author's own son, told the BBC that he took to "running away when people bring up the subject".
"Pooh, promise you won't forget about me, ever. Not even when I'm a hundred." This is the plaintive cry made by Christopher Robin to his teddy bear, Winnie-the-Pooh, in the final chapter of The House in Pooh Corner.
British novelist and playwright AA Milne needn't have worried. The first Winnie-the-Book was published 100 years ago in October 1926, and introduced a cast of characters modelled on the author's son and the soft toys he played with: lovably dim Pooh Bear, nervy Piglet, hyperactive Tigger, pessimistic Eeyore. Far from being forgotten, in the century since then the characters have taken on a life far beyond the parameters of their idyllic home, the Hundred Acre Wood.
BBC Radio 4, Desert Island Discs: Christopher Milne, 13/11/1976
From 1966, they became the subject of animated and live-action Disney films, in what is now one of the highest-grossing media franchises of all time. Pooh Bear has even courted controversy in Poland for being "inappropriate", sparked memes mocking the Chinese president Xi Jinping, and prompted tongue-in-cheek pop-culture theories in which the residents of the Hundred Acre Wood have been "diagnosed" with different psychological conditions.

Warren Buffett spent nearly 50 years drinking Pepsi. His son even nicknamed him "Pepsi Warren." Then a neighbor handed him samples of a new cherry-flavored Coca-Cola, and the legendary investor switched sides.
The soda switch made for a good story. The stock purchase that followed made history.
Buffett began buying Coca-Cola shares in 1988, and Berkshire Hathaway eventually built a 400 million-share position for about $1.3 billion. Today, that stake is worth roughly $37 billion at a share price of $93, while the annual dividend income has climbed to about $848 million.

Meghan Markle's half-sister, Samantha Markle, has accused their brother, Thomas Markle Jr., of trying to "destroy" their father, Thomas Markle Sr. Her allegations come as the 82-year-old former television lighting and photography director faces an investigation in the Philippines over allegations that he possessed child ***** ual abuse material.
As reported by The Sun, Markle Jr. discovered the material at their father's home in the Philippines and alerted the police, prompting the authorities to investigate the matter.
Meghan Markle's half-sister, Samantha Markle, has accused their brother, Thomas Markle Jr., of wanting to "destroy" their father, Thomas Markle Sr., amid an ongoing investigation into allegations that he possessed child ***** ual abuse material. According to the Daily Mail, the ***** ss of Sussex's father has denied the allegations, describing them as "sick lies."
Meanwhile, Samantha has publicly defended her father and hit back at Thomas Markle Jr., calling him a "liar" and the allegations against their dad "disgusting."

"There is no merit in these disgusting allegations whatsoever and my brother is disgusting for making them up. He wants to destroy our dad. Shame on him," she claimed.
Samantha further alleged that her brother's accusations were motivated by financial gain. According to her, the dispute began after their father stopped providing him with money. She told the publication, "My brother first came out with these lies a few weeks ago when the cash from my dad was cut off. He has used dad as a cash cow for years, and once the money stopped, he made up the most outrageous lies he could to try and make money from the media."

A late-night dinner in Beverly Hills has set tongues wagging, as the pictures show the actress enjoying a relaxed evening with Imagine Dragons frontman Dan Reynolds. While the duo was not alone at the table, the attention stayed firmly on the two of them. What happened as the night wound down adds another twist to their tale.

Two friends joined them for the meal, including Anastasia Soare, who was seated beside Vergara. Even with friends at the table, the images keep the focus on the two of them.

As the night wound down, reports suggest that the pair slipped out through the restaurant's back door at around 12:30 am.
The outing also comes as Vergara's past marriage is making headlines once again. Her ex-husband, Joe Manganiello, made several claims about their past relationship in his new memoir, "Bloodlines."

Phoebe Dynevor became internationally famous through Bridgerton, and that sudden success also brought increased attention to her personal life. The British actress has experienced everything from relatively private relationships to a highly publicized romance followed by photographers and tabloids. Over time, however, Dynevor has become increasingly careful about separating her career from her relationships. Her romantic history has included actors and figures outside the entertainment spotlight, but her relationship with Cameron Fuller ultimately became the most significant chapter. After beginning their romance in 2023, the couple became engaged and later married.
Before Bridgerton transformed her public profile, Dynevor was linked to several men, including British actor Sean Teale and executive Simon Merrill. These relationships attracted comparatively limited attention, partly because they occurred before she became internationally recognizable as Daphne Bridgerton. The success of the Netflix period drama dramatically changed the amount of interest surrounding her life away from the screen.
That became especially clear in 2021, when Dynevor dated American comedian Pete Davidson. Their relationship generated intense media attention as the pair were photographed together and followed by celebrity publications. Dynevor later reflected on the experience of suddenly having strangers interested in something she considered an ordinary part of being a young woman. The relationship ended after several months, with their demanding schedules and distance widely reported as challenges.
A quieter chapter began when Dynevor was linked to actor and producer Cameron Fuller in 2023. The pair initially kept much of their relationship away from public attention, although they gradually began appearing together at events. Fuller comes from an entertainment industry family and has worked both in front of and behind the camera.
Their relationship reached another milestone in 2024. Dynevor attended the Met Gala wearing a pale pink Victoria Beckham gown and revealed a diamond ring on her left hand, bringing widespread attention to their engagement. Fuller and Dynevor largely continued their low key approach afterward rather than turning their wedding preparations into a constant public storyline.

Brad Pitt has found a surprising lesson in survival, one that has little to do with Hollywood or the physical challenges of his latest film.
As the actor reflected on the painful period surrounding his divorce from Angelina Jolie while promoting his survival thriller "Heart of the Beast," he credited the people who helped him endure it.
Filming a wilderness survival thriller also gave him a fresh perspective on navigating personal upheaval, rebuilding his footing, and taking life one small victory at a time.

For Brad Pitt, getting through life's hardest moments was not about maintaining a polished public image or pretending he could handle everything alone.

America's newest college graduates were sold the college premium. Four in 10 of them are working jobs that never needed the diploma.
About 42% of recent college graduates, ages 22 to 27, were underemployed in June, working jobs that typically don't require a bachelor's degree, according to the Federal Reserve Bank of New York's tracker of the labor market for recent college graduates. That's up from 41.8% in May but down from 42.4% in November 2025 and below the pandemic-era high of 43.4% in October 2020.
Unemployment is the other half of the problem. Recent grads' jobless rate hit 5.7% in June, well above the 4.1% rate for all workers. That's a reversal. From 1990, when the Fed's data begins, through 2018, recent grads were more likely to be unemployed than the average worker in just eight months. They have been more likely every month since January 2021. The gap hit a record 1.8 percentage points in April 2025 and is still near it.
Some degrees fare much worse than others. Using 2024 Census data, the Fed's breakdown by college major found criminal justice had the most underemployment, at 65.8%, followed by performing arts at 63.9% and fine arts at 58.9%.
On unemployment, computer engineering was second-worst of any major at 7.8%, and computer science fourth at 7%. Education majors fared best: special education had a 0.7% jobless rate and elementary education 1.2%. Nursing was 2.1%.

But when you try to define what it means to be "rich," the concept becomes more abstract; there's no set dollar amount or single physical ******* et that definitively makes you rich.
In fact, whether or not you're considered rich is largely relative to the value of your income and ******* ets when compared to the wealth of other people around you. For example, when determining if your salary qualifies as lower or upper income, The Pew Research Center considers how much you earn in comparison to people living in your area with the same family size.

Former Rep. Mary Peltola is rescheduling several upcoming campaign events after she and her family sustained "minor" injuries in a car crash, her campaign announced Sunday.
"Mary and her family sustained minor injuries but are in good spirits. Unfortunately, per the advice of medical professionals, Mary's upcoming events in Fairbanks and Bethel will be rescheduled for later in the week as she takes time to recover," Peltola campaign manager Cheryl Bruce said in a statement.
"Mary is disappointed that the accident is delaying the start of her Alaska Always Tour, and she is eager to get back on the campaign trail to speak directly with Alaskans about her plan to take on the rigged system and lower costs for working families," Bruce added.
Peltola was en route to the Alaska Federation of Natives' annual banquet Saturday when a vehicle transporting the candidate and her family was struck by another driver, according to the campaign. A spokesperson for the campaign said they had no reason to believe the accident had been politically motivated.
The police department in Anchorage confirmed Sunday that a collision involving three vehicles occurred on evening and those involved sustained "non-life threatening injuries."

A royal expert claims that King Charles may distance himself from Prince Harry and Meghan Markle. This could happen as some serious allegations against Markle's father have surfaced. The source reportedly that, as the allegations have attracted unwanted attention to the Royal Family, it might lead to the monarch making a serious decision.
WARNING: The article contains mention of child ******* .
In a conversation with Page Six, Kinsey Schofield revealed what could prompt King Charles to step away from the Sussexes' relationship. "This may give King Charles III the ammunition to take a firmer stance in distancing the monarchy from Harry and Meghan," she said, referring to the allegations against Thomas Markle Sr. that he reportedly possessed child ******* .
She claimed that she doesn't expect King Charles or the Royal Family to address the ongoing situation surrounding Markle's father. This is because she is aware that this matter is in relation to private individuals and not ******* ociated with the Royal Family. Therefore, they do not need to defend or explain themselves. "The Sussexes are private citizens, and perhaps it's time the Palace made that separation unmistakably clear," the royal expert added.
These remarks came amid reports that Markle's half-brother, Thomas Jr., told the police that he found "hundreds, if not thousands" of child ******* images from his father's home in the Philippines. After submitting the sworn statement, Thomas Jr. spoke to the police about the disturbing situation (via The Sun).

Kimberly Guilfoyle has lost her ambassador job, but her name still carries a six-figure price tag on the speaking circuit. The former Fox News personality is listed for appearances costing between $50,000 and $100,000 after she left as U.S. ambassador to Greece amid allegations of financial misconduct, which she denies. Whether anyone is paying those rates is another question. The listing offers a glimpse of her potential earning power, but it doesn't show that she's booked a single six-figure engagement.
Papadakis Press/MEGA
According to her Speaker Booking Agency profile, Guilfoyle is available for speaking engagements, corporate appearances, virtual events, moderated discussions, and meet-and-greets. The page displays a speaking-fee range of $50,000 to $100,000 and lists West Palm Beach, Florida, as her departure point.
That puts the advertised upper limit for one appearance at the same dollar figure as the American Express payment at the center of the controversy surrounding her diplomatic career. The two amounts concern separate matters. One is a public booking estimate, while the other involves disputed allegations about a donor's financial dealings with her.

In a housing market where affordability is increasingly out of reach for many buyers, Vic Bulbon is looking at a type of property that's becoming less expensive: condominiums.
With national home prices near record highs and mortgage rates topping 7% in recent weeks, buying a home remains out of reach for many Americans. Condos appear to offer a rare bright spot, with prices falling across the country.
But even with cheaper sales prices, rising homeowners' **** ociation (HOA) fees and one-time special **** sments are driving up ownership costs.
Now, guidelines released this year by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, the government-sponsored agencies that back nearly half of all US home purchases, aim to reduce the financial and structural risks of condo buildings. Real estate agents told CNN that the changes could add pressure to the condo market by further driving up HOA fees, increasing the total monthly bill for condo owners, and potentially eroding the savings of a lower purchase price.
As of mid-October, condo sales prices lagged behind single-family home prices in 99 of the 100 largest markets in the United States, according to data from financial services company Intercontinental Exchange provided to CNN. Nationally, single-family home prices rose 1.5% from a year earlier, while condo prices fell 1.1%.

Millennials grew up watching the Olsen twins on Full House and in other family-friendly movies. It Takes Two, Passport to Paris, the list goes on.
Then came their business endeavors after stepping away from showbiz, and this year marks two full decades since Mary-Kate Olsen and Ashley Olsen launched a clothing line with one mission: design the perfect white T-shirt.
They called it The Row, and Women's Wear Daily reports that it remains influential across handbags and other fashion realms — yet never losing sight of its beginnings as an elevated basics brand.
The fashion line remains active on social media, especially this month. Check out The Row's Summer 2027 Womenswear Collection in the recent Instagram carousel below.
"Focusing on exceptional fabrics, impeccable details, and precise tailoring, the house combines a timeless perspective with subtle attitudes which form an irreverent classic signature," per the brand's official website. "The Row's collections also explore the strength of simplistic shapes that speak to discretion and are based on uncompromising quality."

Kim Kardashian was left "so mad" after her years-old feud with Paris Hilton was recently revived, her biographer has revealed.
The reality TV star's biographer shared that Kim was left fuming after she learned Paris Hilton had ghosted him.
Jonathan Van Meter, author of Kim's upcoming authorised biography Citizen Kim: The Woman Who Created the Future, revealed he had tried several times to schedule an interview with Kim's former best friend, but was repeatedly left hanging.
"Kim was so mad when I told her," Jonathan told The Hollywood Reporter of Paris's multiple cancellations. "It seemed to stir up some ancient irritation between them. The creation turning on the creator."
Paris, 45, famously introduced Kim, 46, to the world via her reality series The Simple Life.
The formerly close friends had a falling out after Kim's star ascended with the success of her own reality TV series, Keeping Up with the Kardashians.

Charles Barkley says some of the best money advice he ever got came from Michael Jordan on a golf course.
The Hall of Famer recalled the moment Jordan pulled him aside while playing golf in the early 1990s. On The Dan Patrick Show in June 2025, Barkley said he was making about $3 million a year from his Nike endorsement deal at the time.
"We were playing golf and he says, 'Chuck, I was talking to somebody, I want you to quit taking $3 million. Take $1 million and take the other $2 million in stock options,'" Barkley said.
