Russia on Monday sought to downplay reports that a laboratory technician had died of plague, even as President Donald Trump said Washington was closely monitoring the situation and offered US help.
Reports on Friday that pneumonic plague had killed a 28-year-old woman named Darya Shipilova, who had been working for the anti-plague institute in Siberia's Irkutsk region, sparked alarm.
"We're looking at it very strongly, we just heard about it," Trump told reporters at the White House when asked what Washington was going to do about the risk of plague coming from Russia.
"We'll help them, we'll help them as much as we can."
The Russian news outlet People of Baikal, citing unnamed sources close to the regional security services, said the dead woman may have contracted pneumonic plague from a broken test tube.

President Donald Trump used an anti-trans slur Monday to attack the Democratic nominee for the Senate in South Carolina as he urged voters to back Republican Sen. Darline Graham.
In a Truth Social post, Trump referred to Democratic candidate Annie Andrews three times as “trannie.” He said Andrews, who is not transgender, is “not for South Carolina.”
“And South Carolina must show, in the upcoming Election, that it is not for her,” Trump added.
Andrews responded by largely ignoring the insult, saying in a statement first shared with NBC News that she will “work with anyone to put South Carolina first.”
“As a mom and a pediatrician, I’m in this race to fight for my patients, my three kids, and South Carolina,” Andrews said, adding that “lowering costs and making life better for families across our state is going to take all of us working together.”

Aubrey O'Day doubts that being in prison will be effective for her former label head, Diddy.
With reports surfacing that the Bad Boy Records founder, real name Sean Combs, will once again have his prison release pushed up, this time to January 2028, O'Day also reacted to allegations that he's living a pampered life behind bars. According to what several former Fort Dix inmates told NBC News, the 56-year-old has paid to be cleaned and cooked for, along with getting massages.
"Thank you, Chloe [Melas] for doing this investigation," the vocalist posted on X in response to the story. "People should understand the difference between rehabilitation and a ****** vacation. The system is broken- this man will come back a worse criminal."

The report spoke to four men from Diddy's unit. It alleges that the mogul had access to cellphones, antidepressants, and Hennessy.

Here is a look at the celebrities who attended Alessandro Michele's Valentino Antibiblioteca Spring 2027 show, with one notable absentee: Dakota Johnson, who was busy hosting Saturday Night Live this weekend.
Alexander Skarsgård and Zoey Deutch opted for the same Valentino animal print, but on very different coats.
Alexander loves looks that don't necessarily make sense, so his decision to pair his leopard-print coat with a pale-pink top, purple sweatpants and black loafers makes sense, ironically – but only on him. Zoey's version was far more cohesive, with the fur-trimmed coat and embellished bag making the print feel especially luxurious.
Hande Erçel and KUN approached Valentino plaid from opposite directions. We know Hande best for the glamorous gowns she wears at Cannes and Bvlgari events, so seeing this more relaxed side of her style is refreshing. KUN's plaid tweed jacket was considerably sharper, with the sculpted shape and gold **** ons giving his look a more dressed-up feel.
Jeff Satur and Joe Alwyn both made a case for Valentino bomber jackets. Jeff's red version naturally commanded more attention, while Joe kept things considerably more subdued, as we would expect from him.

Rihanna has something on the brain, but it doesn't appear to be love.
After EJ Johnson—the middle child of Magic Johnson and Cookie Johnson—shaded the Anti artist for allegedly showing up late to a Dior show during Paris Fashion Week, Rihanna has clapped back.
In a video circulating on social media, EJ can be seen posing for paparazzi outside their hotel before trying to enter the building with their team—only for the way to be blocked by hotel staff.
As for what Rihanna made of the moment? The 38-year-old kept it succinct with a simple, "Damn."

A recent report suggests that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are ready to reconcile with Prince William and Kate Middleton. The update comes after Harry and Markle returned to the UK. Since their arrival, Harry's estranged brother William and his wife, Middleton, have not released a statement welcoming the Sussexes.
Insiders recently said Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are reportedly planning a meeting with Prince William and Kate Middleton. The move is also being seen as the first step for the Sussexes to reconcile with William and Middleton.
A source told Heat World that the Sussexes "feel it's time for a new summit with William and Kate – and that with all four of them in a room, they could start a very productive and healing conversation." Moreover, the insider said Harry and Markle are willing to take the step, as the former "really wants to see his brother and make peace with him."
On the other hand, Markle reportedly wants to feel welcomed in royal circles and repair her relationship with Middleton.
The insider also claims the update follows the release of Charles Spencer's book about his sister, Princess Diana, which has created a buzz among the royal family. They also said Markle has conveyed that she would not bring up any past conflicts with Middleton during the meeting, as "she just wants Harry to be in a room with his brother." However, a concrete statement regarding this much-anticipated meetup has not been released by either party.

A TikTok posted by creator eriniveson on July 14, 2026, shows her describing punishments she says her parents used during her childhood. The video drew over 8.7 million views and about 1.1 million likes at the time of publication.
The creator, who grew up with her mother and stepdad, begins with a trigger warning before describing what she calls "completely legal things" her parents did. "The things that I'm gonna tell you in this video are just downright cruel," she said.
She said that when something broke and no one confessed, the siblings lined up, and whoever was responsible took the punishment while the others watched. The TikToker said she often took the blame for her younger sisters so they would not get in trouble. She recalls that her stepdad usually did not carry out the corporal punishment himself, but had her mother do it when she was home and stood by to supervise.
She said her room was searched regularly. "Privacy was a privilege, not a right," she said. After her stepbrother lost $5, her parents believed she had taken it, emptied her drawers onto the floor, and made her clean up.
Even doing chores had strict rules. "Do it right or do it twice," the creator remembered. She put away dishes that had spots from the dishwasher, so her mother, who collected antique china, emptied every cabinet and buffet, and the TikToker said she had to hand-wash and dry all of it.

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry reportedly worry that Prince William and Kate Middleton are damaging their reputation among Hollywood's biggest names. The concerns follow William and Kate's high-profile appearance with Tom Cruise at the London premiere of "Digger," where a source claimed the Waleses are using their celebrity connections to "one-up" the Sussexes.
Prince William and Kate Middleton's appearance alongside Tom Cruise at the London premiere of his new film "Digger" reportedly upset Prince Harry and Meghan Markle. According to the National Examiner, the Duke and **** ss of Sussex believe William and Kate deliberately highlighted their friendship with Cruise to provoke them. "They are both convinced that William and Kate made an extra big show of their friendship with Tom Cruise to try to upset them and it worked," the source claimed.
Harry and Meghan reportedly wanted to build strong relationships in Hollywood after leaving royal duties and moving to the US. The source claimed they wanted Cruise to show them the same level of attention he has reportedly shown William and Kate. The insider also claimed that Harry and Meghan expected to join Hollywood's elite social circle after moving to America, but their experience has not matched those expectations.
The source claimed Harry and Meghan worry that they have struggled to build the A-list connections they once expected. According to the insider, their concerns now extend beyond William and Kate's growing relationships with celebrities. "They've gone back to England with their tails between their legs and they're now having to watch William and Kate parading around on the red carpet like a couple of Hollywood stars," the source alleged.
The insider said the situation feels particularly frustrating for the Sussexes because they had hoped to build a life and network in Hollywood. The individual further claimed that Harry and Meghan worry they have become less welcome in A-list circles on both sides of the Atlantic. "In some ways that's even more upsetting because they feel like William and Kate are running a smear campaign against them," the source concluded.

Over the past few years, Hollywood icon Pamela Anderson has revealed that her garden is her haven, one which mirrors her natural, make-up-free ethos.
Her beautiful garden sits within the Canadian childhood home that she took over to renovate in 2020.
In a post on her beauty brand's Instagram account, the mother of two is wearing a plethora of fabulous outfits to tend to her plants, and one of them is a rather bold ensemble. The 59-year-old wore a nude-coloured tutu skirt.
The eye-catching design is the kind of separate you wear for a special occasion, but Pamela made the look a little more casual by adding a copper-toned sweatshirt. With her tumbling blonde hair looking thicker than ever, Pamela looked at ease, sans makeup, within the enchanting backdrop.
Last month, the actress attended an event for Milan Fashion Week and shocked fans with her dramatic black eyeliner transformation.

Paris Hilton turned the streets of Paris into her personal runway during Paris Fashion Week. The socialite was racing against the clock as she made her way to the Elie Saab show, documenting the chaotic journey on Instagram. Even with traffic working against her, Hilton made sure she arrived in true fashion-week style in a black sheer dress.
For the outing, Paris Hilton wore a dramatic black Elie Saab creation covered in intricate lace and floral detailing. The floor-length gown featured a high neckline, long sleeves, and a figure-hugging silhouette. Its extensive sheer sections made it anything but conservative.
Black floral appliqués were strategically scattered across the transparent fabric. This created an elaborate pattern from the neckline all the way down the skirt. The see-through material revealed the black undergarments beneath, while the fitted construction emphasized Hilton's figure. Toward the bottom, layers of lace and textured detailing gave the gown a romantic and dramatic finish.
Getting the glamorous dress to the show proved to be an adventure of its own. Hilton revealed in the video that traffic meant she had to abandon her ride and make her way through the Paris streets on foot. At one point, she could be seen hurrying along the sidewalk as her long sheer gown trailed behind her.
Making the situation even more impressive, Hilton wrote that she was "running in 6 inch heels" to reach the Elie Saab show. She paired the gown with towering black platform heels and a quilted black Chanel handbag with a gold chain strap. Oversized black sunglasses and a voluminous blonde updo, with loose face-framing pieces, completed the look.

Kendrick Sampson has an interesting approach to who gets to be the mother of his children, and it's not as simple as being his partner.
In a new interview with the LOVERS by Shan podcast, the Insecure actor told host Shannon Boodram that he wants kids but would rather raise them with a close friend than with someone he is romantically involved with.
"I just look at love differently," Sampson said near the 45-minute mark in the video linked below. "In my head, if I'm going to have a partnership, I don't want a child in there. I want a child. I definitely want children, but I want children with my homegirls. I want my homegirls to know that we ain't ever going to have a romantic nothing, and the only thing we worried about is the health of the child."

More than two years after Selma Blair posted a comment widely criticized as Islamophobic, for which she later apologized, the actress has revealed the alleged repercussions she experienced in her career and personal life.
The 54-year-old said in a speech on Oct. 1 that she felt "erased" after losing partnerships, legal and career representation and a "best friend" over the February 2024 comment.
The speech took place at the Anti-Defamation League's event at the Jewish Museum in New York City, which celebrated the launch of the organization's State of the Arts: Advancing Jewish Inclusion in Arts, Entertainment and Culture platform.
In the since-deleted message, the "Cruel Intentions" star had issued a call to "deport all these terrorist supporting goons" under a video describing former U.S. Rep. Cori Bush and Rep. Rashida Tlaib as "Jew hating antisemites" for voting against legislation that would have imposed sanctions against people, agencies and governments that "assist Hamas, the Palestinian Islamic Jihad or their affiliates."
"The brands I worked with were gone within a day. A few partnerships I'd spent years building were shelved. My agency was gone. My lawyer was gone. My publicist was gone. My book agent was gone. My book publicist was gone. My social media manager was gone. My son's godmother was gone – my best friend," Blair said from the podium.

Photographs of Harry and Meghan walking into a Cotswolds pub on Thursday, published in The Sun on Saturday, have raised suspicions that the Sussexes may have quietly co-operated with the anonymous photographer who snapped them.
The first tingle to the collective "spidey sense" of royal watchers came from how pin-sharp they are—rather like the pictures of Thomas Markle getting measured for his wedding suit—which is always a bit of a giveaway.
Also, British photographers don't wait outside random pubs on the off chance that Harry and Meghan might show up. And, given you are not allowed in the U.K. to publish photos sourced by following the subject, one has to wonder how a professional photographer just happened to be parked up outside the Falkland Arms pub in Great Tew on Thursday, in the perfect position to grab photos that look like a typical U.S.-style tabloid set-up.
Also, the pictures tell exactly the story the Sussexes want. There has been a lot of speculation about their marriage, and whether it's really as strong as it's made out to be, and here they are, hand in hand, going for a romantic, midweek pub lunch.
Plus, this is all studiously English. The Sussexes, you may recall, told us at some length that England's iconic institution, its monarchy, was a ghastly, corrupt, racist outfit that would be quite happy to see them dead. Now, they want to make it clear that they love England after all, and how better to do that than by shunning the fancy elite restaurants in London in favor of an ancient British pub (named after Lucius Cary, second Viscount Falkland, who died at the battle of Newbury in 1643), where a humble dish of fish and chips costs £20 ($26).

Despite being just miles apart in Paris, Brooklyn Beckham and Nicola Peltz showed no sign of reuniting with the Beckham family as they stepped out for a date night after missing fashion designer Victoria's latest PFW show.
The couple were noticeably absent from the fashion designer's runway show on Friday, even though they were in the French capital at the same time as David, Harper, Romeo and Cruz, who turned out to support Victoria.
David Beckham was joined by daughter Harper and sons Romeo and Cruz – as well as the boys' girlfriends – on the front row at the Conciergerie on Boulevard du Palais, while Brooklyn and Nicola were spotted close to the Louvre.
Brooklyn, 27, and his wife, 31, showed no sign of meeting up with them during their time in Paris.
Instead, the couple enjoyed a romantic date night of their own, putting on a loved-up display as they held hands while making their way to L'Avenue restaurant.

Comedian Tim Dillon roasted stone-faced Peter Thiel after awards ceremony presenter Bari Weiss made an Antichrist joke at his expense.
Thiel received the Axel Springer award in Germany earlier this week for his work in digital technology, and CBS News's Weiss used the venue to make her "foray into standup comedy," according to Dillon.
"That's the crowd's reaction, take a look at the crowd — that's Thiel and the rest of them — That's the crowd's reaction over at the comedy," Dillon quipped, cutting to video of the solemn-looking group.
"She's new! Hey, guys, she's a beginner. How about you lighten up? She's a beginner. She's been running CBS News!" Dillon exclaimed in mock-defense of Weiss.
"So, Bari is now starting out in comedy, but she's got raw talent and charisma. So, if you pair that with work ethic and then a desire to dominate the world and subjugate others, which we know she has, I think she will do actually very well in this," Dillon said before rolling video of Weiss attempting to lighten the mood:

Paloma Elsesser thinks that the glamorization of Ozempic and similar weight-loss drugs isn't a good thing for society as a whole.
The 34-year-old model, who became the first plus-size model to win Model of the Year at the Fashion Awards in 2023, made an appearance on Vogue's The Run-Through podcast and suggested the rise of Ozempic can be correlated to the rise of "conservative" and "anti-woke" rhetoric. "I think the Ozempic era that we're talking about is harmful because it kind of takes away the agency to live in the way that I would hope people and women and young girls and young people can think about their bodies in this world," she shared. Around the 32-minute point of the podcast, which can be seen above.
Elssesser also said that she's seen a rise in "pro-eating disorder content" on platforms such as TikTok, which is especially worrying considering so many young people have unfiltered access to such content.
"II think people are just being like, 'Okay, this is not it,'" she continued. "We're seeing celebrities and people… I think people are upset. … I think that women should have agency. I am critical of applying my body, your body, your choice to this conversation because it's like… 'Is it your choice?' It's not. It's a prescription, so it doesn't actually feel like a choice. … I don't know, maybe I said something problematic. … The number one central tenet, like, anything that I try and live and encourage is to just think critically, not be critical."
