Sept 14 (Reuters) - Hollywood designer Bob Mackie, known for making stars such as Cher and ‌Elton John sparkle, died on Monday at ‌87, according to a post on his official Instagram account.
His career spanned five decades and included designing a Barbie doll clothes collection.
Born in 1939 into a middle-class family in Monterey Park, California, he was nominated for ‌more than 30 ⁠Emmys, winning nine. He received Academy Award nominations for costumes worn in ⁠the films "Lady Sings the Blues," "Funny Lady," and "Pennies From Heaven."

NEW YORK (AP) — Bob Mackie, the fashion designer whose visually provocative Hollywood style defined glamour for the 1970s — including putting Carol Burnett in some of her kookiest getups and Cher in her raciest ones — died Monday. He was 87.
"He lived his 87 years to the fullest, fulfilling his dream of being a Fashion and Costume Designer, which is all he ever wanted to do," a read statement on his social media accounts. "His genius and extraordinary designs will live on forever, continuing to bring beauty into this world."
Dubbed the "Designer to the Stars," Mackie won nine Emmy Awards, a Tony Award and was nominated for three Oscars, including one for Barbra Streisand's "Funny Lady," in which she wore a sheer batwing gown. He was inducted into the Academy of Television Arts & Science's Hall of Fame in 2002.
He designed gowns for Madonna, Barbra Streisand, Sharon Stone, Diana Ross and Julia Louis-Dreyfus, and concert costumes for Pink. When Marilyn Monroe delivered a breathy, seductive take on "Happy Birthday" at a fundraiser for President John F. Kennedy and the Democratic National Committee, she did it in a sheer, beaded gown that Mackie dreamed up in a sketch.
His influence can be seen in the styles of Kendall Jenner and Bella Hadid. His archival pieces are worn today by the likes of Anya Taylor-Joy, Miley Cyrus and Zendaya, the latter who wore a Mackie gown to honor Cher at the 2024 Rock & Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremony. When Taylor Swift wanted to look like a showgirl on the cover of her 2025 album "The Life of a Showgirl," she turned to some Mackie originals.

Legendary music and film fashion and costume designer Bob Mackie died Monday at the age of 87. His team confirmed his passing on his official Instagram page. The cause of death is still unconfirmed.
"It is with a heavy heart that we share the news that Mr. Bob Mackie passed away today," the post announced. "He lived his 87 years to the fullest, fulfilling his dream of being a Fashion and Costume Designer, which is all he ever wanted to do. His genius and extraordinary designs will live on forever, continuing to bring beauty into this world."
Born in 1939 in Monterey Park, California, Mackie is best known for designing iconic costumes for musical stars like Cher, Elton John, Diana Ross and Barbra Streisand. He was raised throughout most of his youth by his maternal grandparents after his parents divorced when he was just two years old. He eventually began living with his father after he moved to Rosemead, California, where he attended Rosemead High School.
Mackie left Chouinard Art Institute early after he was hired to sketch for Frank Thompson at Paramount Studios. He spent part of the early 1960s working at the studio as an ****** istant designer under Ray Aghayan. He scored his first big break when Mitzi Gaynor hired him to create the costumes for her Las Vegas Revue. He continued to be a go-to collaborator for Gaynor over the years and raked in Emmys for his contributions to her 1976 and 1978 TV specials.
He became even more well-known in the Hollywood scene in the late 1960s and through the late 1970s for his work as the costume designer for "The Carol Burnett Show," which asked him to design upwards of 50 costumes a week. It was on the set of that iconic sketch variety series that Mackie met Cher. He went on to serve as the costume designer for "The Sonny & Cher Comedy Hour" and continued to design pieces for the star in the decades that followed.

As the Yankees' pitchers and hitters began their respective pregame meetings on Friday afternoon, the daily seminars opened with a twist.
Shown to them was what Aaron Boone called an "outstanding," three-minute video on the significance of Sept. 11, 2001. With Friday marking the 25th commemoration of the terrorist attacks that targeted the World Trade Center, Brett Weber, the Yankees' senior director of advance scouting and replay guru, put the clip together.
The intention was to give the Yankees a quiet moment to reflect before hosting the Subway Series and beating the crosstown-rival Mets, 6-4.
"This is a day that will be remembered forever," Weber said, "and at the end of the day, that was really the message."
Boone also made sure to talk to his players, who recently attended the National September 11 Memorial & Museum and a handful of local firehouses, about the importance of the day. Among other things, he wanted to make sure that they knew how vital baseball became in the aftermath of the tragedy, as the game helped the city and the country heal.

There's a new Sadio Mane on the scene, and he's incredible.
Liverpool fans will forever remember the memories of that incredible trio under Jurgen Klopp. Sadio Mane, Mo Salah and Roberto Firmino were unplayable on their day.
They could do whatever they wanted. Defenders were terrified of facing them.
It was a spectacular era. One of the best periods of many supporters' lives. Witnessing their magic at Anfield was truly an indelible experience.
Liverpool are now trying to recreate that with a new exciting trio. In Bradley Barcola and Alexander Isak they have two of the three attackers they need.

This weekend marks a solemn anniversary in our nation's history. 25 years ago on September 11, 2001, the United States was attacked by terrorists that hijacked commercial airlines and flew them into both towers of the World Trade Center and the Pentagon. On Saturday, both the Texas Longhorns and Ohio State Buckeyes will honor that tragedy on their helmets.
It has been called this generation's Pearl Harbor. 9/11 is a day that everyone remembers exactly what they were doing when they found out America had been attacked. 2,977 died as a result of the terrorist attacks. The horrific memories are vivid even now. Every year, there are remembrances on the anniversary. But this year is different. 25 years is a grim milestone of morning that changed the world forever.
Remembering those we lost, and those who answered the call#NeverForget pic.twitter.com/8QXhqaPFwB
Texas and Ohio State will wear commemorative decals on their helmets to honor the victims and first responders that America lost on that day. 441 emergency workers died on 9/11, making it the largest loss of first responders in a single day in U.S. history.
We will never forget those whose lives were lost on September 11th, 2001.

Tomorrow, we’ll wear these decals in remembrance and honor of their memory. 🇺🇸 pic.twitter.com/FuPSLpqN14

"We've made a decent start and we want to keep that feeling going. We've made some really good signings in midfield, which gives us good, healthy competition. In the short-term I'm just looking to get fully fit. It feels horrible not being up to my 100 per cent. I'm working every day to get there, because I want to show the consistency levels again where I was last season. If I do that, I'll be happy and I know that will put me in good stead to help the team – and also for things like England," says James Garner. [EFC]

One of the most fascinating stories to come out of the early phases of this year's UEFA Champions League competition involves newly-formed Azerbaijani club Sabah FK and their mercurial coach.
Valdas Dambrauskas has led the young club to not only its first-ever top flight ***** le, but now their first-ever trip to the league phase of any European competition, let alone the Champions League.
Sabah became one of the final league phase qualifiers in the 2026/27 competition as they reversed a 2-1 aggregate deficit to Hapoel Be'er Sheva in the final qualifying round, winning the second leg 5-2 in a stunning comeback.

That sent Sabah to the lucrative league phase, which has changed the trajectory of the club forever.

Too much of a good thing is not a good thing when it comes to tennis matches according to Bill Simmons.
We have seen a trend of sports trying to shorten their game times in recent years, catering to shorter attention spans and increasing content competition. Major League Baseball implemented a series of changes including a pitch clock and the results have been tremendous for the sport as viewership increases and games no longer seem like an interminable slog.
And now with US Open matches going deep into the night, Simmons is asking for tennis to do the same. He argues that matches taking four-and-a-half hours to complete are far too long to keep anyone entertained.
"I've watched tennis my whole life. I've played tennis, I love tennis. Tennis matches are too long," Simmons declared. "We've lost the narrative with this. These guys are too good. The rallies and the points, these matches are four-and-a-half hours routinely now. And I just think it's absurd, and I've talked about this forever. I don't think anything should be four-and-a-half hours. Literally anything, movies, sporting events, a dinner, anything. I don't want to do anything for four-and-a-half hours that's supposed to be entertainment."
Of course, Bill Simmons knows this is going to be a molten hot take for tennis purists. However, he stuck to his guns, even suggesting that the sport shorten sets to get games completed in a reasonable time.

Europe's royal families are mourning the loss of a man who, for them, was a true role model. For thirty-five years, King Harald was the example that new generations of royals looked up to, a sovereign whose reign was defined, among other things, by the warmth and closeness he showed in each of his public appearances. His absence will be forever recorded in the pages of history and has unleashed a wave of emotion among today's monarchies, who have not hesitated to express their feelings and their love for the late King.
It was Queen Mary, during one of her first engagements after his passing, who chose to speak from the heart to reveal the closeness she shared with Haakon of Norway's father, a gesture that King Willem-Alexander of the Netherlands has echoed from afar, continuing this tribute of affection.

UFC Hall of Famer Michael Bisping is convinced that Salahdine Parnasse is a legitimate lightweight ***** le contender after his UFC Fight Night 287 debut win.
Bisping was on color commentary Saturday when Parnasse (24-2 MMA, 1-0 UFC) blitzed through Dan Hooker (24-15 MMA, 14-11 UFC) for a first-round TKO at Accor Arena in Paris. The former two-division KSW champion was never in trouble before ending the fight inside three minutes, and now he's another compelling player at 155 pounds.
How far can he go? Based off what Bisping saw from this performance, it's all the way to the top.
"To take out Dan Hooker in the fashion that he did, to do it so quickly, to make it look easy – he just put the entire lightweight division on notice," Bisping said on the UFC Fight Night 287 broadcast. "He's right to call out Max Holloway and talk about the BMF and being the champion and all the rest of it, because that is what he is: He is championship material.
"The French know it. They have another potential champion on their hands. That's crazy what he did to Dan Hooker. You know how tough Dan is. He's been around forever. Yeah, he's won some and lost some, but he's never, never been beaten like that."
