Colman Domingo called on men to stand with women. The actor said he would die a "feminist" while appearing on a fundraiser red carpet. Domingo also shared his thoughts on women's access to resources.
While appearing on Caring for Women Dinner's red carpet on Thursday, Domingo said men should stand with women. According to The Hollywood Reporter, he said, "Anytime I've been in rooms like this, I've thought, 'Look at all these female leaders' — but hey, we're the men. Men should be locking arms to make sure women have what they need in access and information and support. I was raised a feminist, and I'll die a feminist."
The actor also shared that supporting such organizations is important for him. He added, "It's always been important to me to stand firm with these organizations — not only in support, but with my presence."
Domingo served as master of ceremonies at the fifth annual fundraiser. Caring for Women Dinner is organized by Kering, the luxury conglomerate, with luxury brands including Gucci, Balenciaga, Alexander McQueen, Brioni, and others.
Many stars appeared on the red carpet to support the fundraiser. These included co-hosts Salma Hayek Pinault and her husband, François-Henri Pinault, Simone Biles, Pamela Anderson, Dakota Johnson, and Benicio Del Toro.

Last night in New York City, the Kering Foundation held its fifth annual Caring for Women dinner in the midst of New York Fashion Week. Co-hosted by founders (and spouses) Salma Hayek and François-Henri Pinault, the event raises money to end gender-based violence, and it's become one of the starriest fundraisers of September—as well as a ****** e where the stars can get a bit daring with their looks.
This year, one of the most memorable ensembles of the night came courtesy of Pamela Anderson. Days after making a statement in a bright orange dress at the amfAR Gala Venezia, the queen of makeup-free red-carpet appearances turned heads again in an elegant all-black look that exuded classic Hollywood bombshell glamour.

Anderson—who often styles herself—wore a sleek design from Gucci by Demna. The high-neck dress featured a semi-sheer, jersey-style fabric that cloaked The Naked Gun actor, leaving a few bare bits of skin thanks to a cutout around back, and a high slit that ran up the side of the skirt, exposing one of her legs. Anderson has never been afraid to bring a bit of ****** iness to the carpet.

The 2026 LVMH Prize took place at the Fondation Louis Vuitton in Paris this week, where Belgian designer Julie Kegels was named the winner, receiving €400,000 and a year of mentorship from LVMH experts. Jennifer Lawrence presented Kegels with the award, while Priyanka Chopra was also among the guests.
Both wore Dior, but their looks could not have been more different.
François Goizé
While we do tend to struggle with some of Jennifer Lawrence's choices in Jonathan Anderson's Dior, with the Die My Love Rome Film Festival premiere serving as an example, this suit is endlessly chic.
Some might feel it is very Monica Bellucci-coded, but I would not regard that as a bad thing. Between the sculpted jacket and wide-leg trousers, this is the epitome of a Dior woman, and Jennifer wears it effortlessly.

François Pinault Jr. and his wife, Countess Lara Cosima Henckel von Donnersmarck, have stepped out together following the surprise revelation that they have welcomed their first child.
The new parents were photographed in the stands during Stade Rennais FC's Ligue 1 match, marking their first public appearance since Lara revealed earlier this month that they had quietly become parents to a baby boy.
Making it a family affair, François' younger sister, Mathilde Pinault, joined the couple in the stands, sitting alongside her brother as they watched the action unfold.
Lara, 23, looked elegant in an all-white ensemble consisting of a romantic ruffled blouse and coordinating skirt, with her platinum blonde hair swept into a low bun.

Salma Hayek is living her first days as a grandmother — and basking in the sweetness. Her stepson, François Pinault Jr., and his partner, Lara Cosima Henckel von Donnersmarck, welcomed their first child last month, a boy the couple named François, continuing a naming tradition that stretches back four generations in the Pinault family.
Hayek marked the milestone with an Instagram video that's since melted a corner of the internet.
Hayek has been sharing moments with her new grandson as François Pinault Jr. leaned in beside them. (@ laracosima_pinault/IG)
In the clip, Hayek is seen holding her grandson close, rocking him gently and laughing as she murmurs to him in Spanish. She paired the video with a caption honoring the family's lineage: "We are blessed to welcome the fourth living generation of Francois'." She also added a personal touch, pulled straight from her Mexican roots. "Although I will call him Panchito," she wrote. "He seems to love it, and I cannot love him more."
Panchito is a classic Mexican nickname for Francisco, in this case, François, and Hayek's choice to reach for it is very on-brand. Over the years, Hayek has long folded her heritage into her life, even when she and her daughter Valentina Paloma are the sole Spanish speakers in their home.

Thanks to the injunction that allowed class of 2022 athletes a 5th season of eligibility, Josh Reed decided to return to Penn State for the 2026-27 season.
A 6-foot-8, 230-pound forward, Reed spent last season in Happy Valley after spending his first three seasons at Cincinnati. With the Nittany Lions, Reed was one of the few bright spots during a feeble 2025-26 campaign, averaging 11.5 PPG, 4.1 RPG, and 1 SPG. He'll now be back for one more season, which is quite the coup for Penn State. Reed certainly isn't a star by any stretch, but he's a solid athlete with good size and good smarts. He can defend on the wing or in the post. Really, he's an ideal good glue who will absolutely get minutes — and likely start — just as he did last season.
If I had to guess the depth chart, it'll look something like this:
1: Dasante Bowen / Jay Rodgers
2: Roberts Blums / Francois Wibaut
3: Brant Byers / Francois Wibaut
4: Josh Reed / Roko Prokacin
5: Ivan Juric / Tim Oboh
For Penn State basketball, that's not too shabby of a roster. NCAA tournament worthy? Probably not. But I think a solid step in the right direction after last season.

Randal Kolo Muani has been spotted on the ground in Turin and is on the verge of formally completing his return to Juventus, this time on a permanent transfer that could be worth a maximum of €50m.
According to reports from various outlets on Saturday evening, Juventus and Paris Saint-Germain have an agreement in place for the permanent transfer of Kolo Muani at a cost of €38m plus €12m in potential bonuses, some of which are easier to achieve than others.
Juventus have been attempting to secure the Frenchman's services for several weeks, not forgetting their attempts to resign the centre-forward during the summer transfer window in 2025 either.

Argentina's football ***** ociation has indicated it may have been the target of a cyber attack after emails from its official accounts reportedly criticised refereeing in the national team's 3-2 win against Egypt at the World Cup.
The reigning world champions looked set for a shock last-16 exit when they trailed Egypt 2-0 but produced a remarkable late comeback to reach the quarter-finals.
Following the defeat, the Egyptian Football ***** ociation asked Fifa to banish from the tournament the French referee Francois Letexier and the team of officials who were in charge, alleging bias in favour of Argentina.
Argentine news outlet La Calle reported emails sent from the Argentine Football ***** ociation's (AFA) account to journalists after the match stated "Argentina did not win" and the result was a result of "corrupt refereeing decisions".
The publication said that AFA sources indicated a group of Egyptian-origin hackers were behind the emails, which also praised Egypt's performance.

The Egyptian football federation said on Wednesday it had asked for the officiating team from the Pharaohs' 3-2 defeat to Argentina in the last 16 of the World Cup to be thrown out of the competition.
"Hany Aburida, president of the Egyptian Football Federation, filed a complaint with FIFA, demanding an investigation into the French referee Francois Letexier... after the serious refereeing mistakes committed by the team of referees and double standards," said a statement from the federation.
On Tuesday, Letexier ruled out a Mostafa Ziko goal when Egypt were leading 1-0 after VAR intervened to spot a foul on Lisandro Martinez much earlier in the move.
A few minutes later, Ziko put Egypt 2-0 up and on the brink of a place in the last eight for the first time, but there was further controversy in added time, after Cristian Romero and Lionel Messi had brought the champions level.
In the build-up to Argentina's winner scored by Enzo Fernandez, Egypt believe they should have been awarded a penalty for a pull by Alexis Mac Allister on Hamdy Fathy.

The Egyptian Football ***** ociation is seeking redress after being disgusted by the refereeing in Tuesday's dramatic 3-2 World Cup last-16 defeat against Argentina.
The world champions came back from 2-0 down after 79 minutes to win, but Egypt felt they should have been 3-0 up after a video review disallowed a goal from Zico for a minor foul.
The Pharaohs also believe they had a strong penalty claim just before Enzo Fernandez's injury-time winner.
Association president Hany Abo Rida told reporters in the team hotel that he had filed a complaint with FIFA against French referee François Letexier and his ***** istants. He called for the refereeing team to be excluded from the rest of the tournament.
The Egyptians want an investigation into the officials.

Throughout the 2026 World Cup, VAR has been at the center of the tournament, and not for all the right reasons.
Decisions based on VAR have been labeled as inconsistent, including with Folarin Balogun's red card review, and it happened again on Tuesday, with referee Francois Letexier calling off a second Egypt goal thanks to an Argentina toe stepped on by Marwan Attia that ended up being a foul.
Fox ******* yst Rob Green immediately ripped VAR as the replay wiped out the goal (although Egypt would score not too soon after that). Here's what he had to say:
"100 yards away, someone stepping on someone's toe is not why VAR was brought into the game. We've got to a point now where it's reaching far beyond the powers that it should have. The referee saw the tackle, decided not to give it, and then Egypt with a brilliant breakaway goal have been denied a two-goal cushion."
Well said. We'll see if VAR keeps being the focal point of furious fans.

It is no secret that Real Madrid maintain cordial ties with all club legends and former players, but the club also often go a step ahead and support their children in their footballing dreams.
In recent times, the Merengues handed out Marcelo’s son Enzo Alves his first professional contract at just 16 years of age and have been supporting his development for a long time now.
Further, word has it that Cristiano Ronaldo’s son trained with the youth categories recently, possibly in a bid to join the academy in the near future.
Now, as reported by Rodra of ESPN, Real Madrid have two more gems in their sights, both of whom are children of former players.

Despite having signed no less than four players in the ongoing transfer window, Real Madrid have no intention of halting their summer reinforcements.
The club are already on the prowl for a Galatico signing, with Michael Olise firmly on the sights. But in addition, Real Madrid are also keen on the services of a new midfielder.
Enzo Fernandez has emerged as the top pick as Jose Mourinho looks to move on from Eduardo Camavinga, a player Real Madrid are ready to sell for just €60 million this summer.
However, according to Miguel Serrano, Xabi Alonso is not too keen on allowing Real Madrid to get their hands on Enzo Fernandez.

All of a sudden, there's a brand new candidate in the conversation to be Wisconsin's next athletic director.
According to Wildcat Authority's Jason Scheer, Arizona AD Desiree Reed-Francois is "actively involved" with the Badgers' opening.
Scheer went as far as to say that Reed-Francois is "in the final group of candidates."
This news is a bit shocking, as Wisconsin hasn't publicly revealed who is in the running, though Reed-Francois' name never seemed to be in consideration. Now, all of a sudden, she's potentially a finalist for Chris McIntosh's former job.
Marcus Sedberry remains the interim athletic director, but for how long? Wisconsin has been very open that they want to fill McIntosh's spot by the summer, and having a new AD around before a massive 2026 football season would be ideal.
