Musician Art Garfunkel has joined the growing list of celebrities considering leaving the United States in response to President Donald Trump's administration and policies.
In an interview with The Guardian, Garfunkel, 84, told the British publication he is concerned about the country's stance on key issues and is considering moving elsewhere.
"I don't like America's position at all," he told the outlet. "I'm not aboard, and I'm thinking of leaving the country, frankly."

Bob Mackie had strong feelings about Kim Kardashian wearing Marilyn Monroe's historic dress.
The legendary fashion designer, whose death was announced Sept. 14 at age 87, sketched the original design at the start of his career while working as an ***** istant to French-born costumer Jean Louis.
Monroe made American history in 1962 when she wore the nude shimmering gown during her performance of "Happy Birthday" for then-President John F. Kennedy. The dress and her serenade were never forgotten.
So much so that 60 years later in 2022, Kardashian worked with the owner of the dress, Ripley's Believe It or Not! museum, to wear the bling-encrusted gown to the Met Gala, acknowledging that she slimmed down dramatically to fit into it.
Mackie called Kardashian's wearing of the skin-tight gown a "big mistake," telling Entertainment Weekly that Monroe was "a goddess. A crazy goddess, but a goddess." He went on to describe her as "just fabulous," noting that the dress "was designed for her."

Joey McGuire is optimistic the Texas Tech football team will have more weapons on the field of Galaxy Stadium for the Red Raiders' showdown against Houston.
Safety Brenden Jordan has wrapped his two-game suspension for a violation of team rules and will return to action on Friday night. As for a pair of injured starters, that's up to how the short week of preparation goes.
Outside linebacker Trey White (back) has missed the first two games of the season while tight end Terrance Carter Jr. was in a boot before the game and missed Texas Tech's 35-24 win over Oregon State.
"Trey and TC are trending in the right direction," McGuire said. "They both had good runs this morning. They're doing their recovery stuff right now. Trey will get a little bit individually this afternoon and then TC will get some scout periods this afternoon. Feeling good as long as we don't have any setbacks to getting those guys back."

Gilded and glamorous, Eva Longoria graced the red carpet at the Global Gift Gala Madrid 2026, held at the Casino de Madrid on Sept. 13 in Madrid. The actress' look was ethereal from the makeup to her gown.
The "Desperate Housewives" star was ethereal, clad in a high-shine gold gown consisting of a sleeveless high-neck bodice and a form-fitted construction. Longoria's chosen garment was seemingly crafted of a fabric affixed with teeny tiny sequins that caught the camera's flash wherever she turned. The dress was straight up and down, a silhouette with shape in the center before shooting straight down to the floor where the skirt pooled at her feet.

When the White House was looking for a way to attack Richard Gere this summer, they went low. Very low — even for this administration.
Gere, the politically active 77-year-old actor and philanthropist, had criticized President Trump's "ignorance" for cuts to the U.S. Agency for International Development. At an event promoting an educational partnership on migration, Gere remarked, "He has idiots around him."

Princess Diana's iconic "revenge dress" is heading back to auction. Meghan Markle is reportedly interested in buying it, but she could face some serious competition. A source claims Kim Kardashian is among several high-profile names determined to own the famous gown. With its royal history and emotional significance, the upcoming sale could become a closely watched battle.
Meghan Markle is reportedly hoping to get her hands on one of Princess Diana's most famous looks. The black Christina Stambolian dress is set to return to the auction block in December. Sotheby's expects it could sell for up to £220,000 (approxiamately $2,96,000).
The dress has a story almost as famous as its design. Diana wore it to a 1994 fundraising gala, on the same night then-Prince Charles allegedly admitted to infidelity. She stepped out in the daring off-the-shoulder number instead of following the more restrained royal style expected of her. The look soon earned its now-famous "revenge dress" nickname.
Now, according to New Idea, Meghan is supposedly considering a bid. However, she may have to beat some serious competition to take it home. A source claimed that Kim Kardashian is "determined to own this dress." The insider also named Salma Hayek and Lady Gaga as potential contenders. Several collectors from Qatar and Saudi Arabia are allegedly interested, too.
With that kind of competition, the final price could climb quickly. The source claimed Prince Harry and Meghan's budget could become "a huge problem" when the bidding begins. And apparently, the couple may not even agree on whether the dress should be theirs.

Comedian Bill Maher spent the first night of Rosh Hashanah taking aim at Macklemore and other anti-Israel celebrities, arguing that calling the war in Gaza a genocide is fueling a global rise in antisemitism.
During Friday night's episode of HBO's "Real Time," Maher first criticized members of the Democratic Party who have spoken out against Israel during the Israel-Hamas war.
"Because nowhere has this moral confusion become more obvious than in a place called Gaza," Maher said. "A little strip of land that was not part of the original Israel, but they won in a war launched against them, but then gave back, gave back as a peace gesture — did they tell you that part on TikTok, kids?"

Art imitates life imitates...
In summer 2026, word started to spread that the movie star at the center of Rachel Cusk's new novel, Life of M, appeared to draw heavily from the life and career of Natalie Portman, who had previously met Cusk, praised her writing, and promoted her work through her book club. While Cusk has resisted confirming the connection and Portman herself has not publicly addressed it, sources close to the actress have denied that she had any involvement in the book. Life of M is hardly the first time a seemingly fictional character has closely resembled a real-world figure.
Still, as Cusk recently put it to The New York Times, while skirting the question of M's real-life parallels: "Famous people enter the public imagination... it is part of fame's deal, and part of its tragedy."
Here are nine instances in which a celebrity has seen themselves reflected in a fictional character — and weighed in. Many of them didn't bother holding back.

TORRINGTON - Watching Nick Coleman and Kevin Leavitt run the ball for the Torrington football team in Friday night's season-opening 21-0 win over Kennedy, you might think they've been sharing the Raiders' backfield duties for ages, rather than being just the latest stars to shine in Torrington's single-wing galaxy.
When Coleman ran the ball - which he did 21 times for 160 yards and three touchdowns - there was Leavitt out ahead throwing a crisp block. When Leavitt ran the ball - which he did for 58 yards on 11 carries - there was Coleman doing the same.
They complemented each other as naturally as peanut **** er and jelly, Damon and Affleck, or - as their coach notes - thunder and lightning.
"We embrace (blocking)," said Coleman, a senior. "Single-wing offense, that's what it's about. There's no player above blocking, even if you're the quarterback, the tailback, whatever. You've got to go and make a block."
"I'd do anything for (Coleman). If I have to make a block, I'm doing whatever I can for him," Leavitt, a sophomore, said.

Penn State players have been named to award watch lists all summer long for being the best player at their position group or showing resiliency in returning from injury. But the latest Nittany Lion named to a watch list is being recognized for his work on and off the field.
Offensive lineman Cooper Cousins has been named to the Jason Witten Man of the Year award watch list, an honor that showcases a player who has displayed the best character and has shown commitment to community, family and teammates. Cousins isn't just one of the more promising offensive linemen in the nation — he's also one of the best people in the sport.
He's done nothing but great things in the community since coming to State College in 2024. Cousins struck up a friendship in his freshman year with a 10-year-old boy named Gannon Kupko Jr. who is dealing with a serious illness. He also spoke at the 2025 Game Day Gala, an event for children fighting difficult battles like Gannon, and the function raised more than $3 million.
Cousins is one of the most important players on the Nittany Lions, and he's also a pillar in the community. It will be a treat to watch him continue to work this season and make a lasting impact on the community.

Princess Diana captivated the world in June 1994 when she arrived at a Vanity Fair gala wearing a bold, off-the-shoulder black silk dress by Christina Stambolian. That very same night, King Charles publicly admitted to being unfaithful to Diana during their marriage.
Diana's daring outfit dominated headlines and overshadowed Charles' confession, and thus, the ensemble was dubbed a "revenge dress."

Now that the late Princess Diana's iconic "revenge dress" is heading to auction at Sotheby's, one particular person has their eye on taking it home.
A Friday, September 11, report in journalist Rob Shuter's Naughty But Nice Substack claims the late royal's son Prince Harry is incredibly fond of his mother's iconic ensemble.
"He doesn't want it disappearing into a collector's closet," a source told Shuter, adding that the Duke of Sussex, 41, "believes it should stay connected to Diana" and "belong to" wife Meghan Markle.
Diana — who was just 36 when she died on August 31, 1997, following a car crash in Paris — was known for her incredible fashion sense and became synonymous with the term "revenge dress."
On June 29, 1994, the royal stepped out for a gala held at the Serpentine Gallery in London wearing a black, fitted, chic, off-the-shoulder dress by designer Christina Stambolian that featured an asymmetrical hemline and chiffon train.

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.

Bridgerton's first leading lady, Phoebe Dynevor, has said "I do" herself after marrying fiancé Cameron Fuller on Saturday, September 5, according to a report from The Sun.
The actress who famously plays Daphne Bridgerton in Netflix's Shondaland hit is poised to continue her romantic streak onscreen with the streamer's highly anticipated adaptation of Emily Henry's Beach Read. When it comes to Dynevor's own fairytale, her nuptials reportedly took place at Le Mas de Poiriers, an 18th-century farmhouse in Provence, France.
The property, which accommodates up to 250 guests, spans 65 acres, and among the crowd celebrating Dynevor and Fuller's big day were her mother, Coronation Street actress Sally Dynevor, and her sister, Hattie. It's unclear if any of Dynevor's Bridgerton costars were in attendance at the shindig. The insider source for The Sun revealed that the event "ended up being absolutely perfect."
Dynevor and Fuller began dating in 2023 before becoming engaged to be married in 2024, when it was confirmed during her red carpet appearance at the Met Gala that year. The wedding follows Dynevor's "hen do," a.k.a. bachelorette party, which took place in August at the Broadwick Soho.

Pamela Anderson says a doctor told her she probably had only 10 years to live after she was diagnosed with hepatitis C, leaving her terrified about what would happen to her two young sons.
Anderson revisited the diagnosis while accepting amfAR's Award of Courage at the organization's Sept. 6 gala in Venice. She described hepatitis C as a "death sentence" at the time because the treatments then available had not given her the certainty that later antiviral drugs would provide.
She ultimately completed a 12-week antiviral treatment and announced in 2015 that she was free of the virus. During her Venice speech, however, Anderson said the years surrounding the diagnosis affected her decisions and left behind feelings of shame and guilt that did not disappear with the medical result.
The 59-year-old actress ended her remarks by rejecting the victim label attached to difficult periods in her life. "I'm not a victim, I'm a victor," she told the audience. "I'm not the damsel in distress, no matter how easy that role is to play."
Anderson publicly disclosed in 2002 that she had hepatitis C. Looking back on that period at the amfAR Gala Venezia, she said the prognosis she received was stark.

Let's be brutally honest, ladies. If someone had told us back in 1996 that Pamela Anderson - the slow-motion running, red-swimsuit-wearing, ultimate 90s bombshell - would one day become our leading philosophical guru for embracing midlife, we probably would have choked on our Diet ******* es. But here we are, fiercely navigating our own second acts, and surprisingly, it's Pam who is serving up exactly the kind of rebellious, bare-faced wisdom we didn't know we desperately needed.
Pamela Anderson keeps her makeup-free philosophy as she attends the amfAR Gala Venezia 2026 (@ Getty Images for amfAR)
Who can forget that Pamela was the poster girl for an impossible standard of hyper-glamorous beauty. With the heavy lip liner, bleach, and frosted eyeshadow, she really went for the more-is-more approach to beauty. But in more recent years? She has gloriously changed tack. She has stepped onto the world's most heavily photographed, judgmental red carpet arenas completely makeup-free (or minimally made-up sometimes). She lets her freckles shine, her fine lines show, and her natural skin breathe. And honestly, the collective sigh of relief from women over 50 could be heard from ******* e.
Pamela Anderson went for a more is more approach back in the nineties (@ WireImage)
Because let's face it: the 'anti-ageing' industry is downright exhausting. We are constantly bombarded with marketing campaigns telling us to freeze, fill, lift, and aggressively scrub away every single sign that we have actually had the audacity to live past our fortieth birthdays. It's a relentless, outrageously expensive treadmill. We are commanded to fight aging as if it's a disease, rather than the profound privilege it actually is.

Pamela Anderson brought a serious dose of color to Venice with her latest red carpet appearance. The actress stepped out for the amfAR Gala Venezia 2026 during the Venice Film Festival, trading understated neutrals for a striking orange look. Anderson commanded attention in the vibrant dress held up by thin strings, along with a pared-back beauty aesthetic that has become a signature of her recent appearances.
Pamela Anderson wore a custom Calvin Klein creation crafted from glossy orange satin. The floor-length dress featured an ultra-minimalist neckline held in place by two incredibly thin spaghetti straps, which stretched over her shoulders and left her bust completely exposed. With barely any fabric supporting the top, the delicate straps became one of the riskiest details of the elegant silhouette.
The gown featured a straight-across neckline and fitted bodice before falling into a long, fluid skirt. Its satin construction caught the light from every angle, making the fiery orange shade appear even more intense on the carpet. Subtle seams through the bodice gave the streamlined dress structure.
Anderson added another dramatic element with a coordinating oversized satin wrap. Rather than wearing it traditionally, she allowed the voluminous piece to fall loosely from her shoulders and arms. The extra fabric cascaded down both sides of her body before pooling behind her. This created the effect of a sweeping train and added more volume to the dress.
She kept everything else simple. Anderson wore her blonde hair in soft, shoulder-length waves with a side part and appeared to embrace a minimal beauty approach. Small earrings provided a subtle finishing touch without competing with the vivid gown.

Anna Wintour has been in hot water of late. Last year, people weren't too happy that Jeff Bezos and his new wife were sponsors of the Met Gala. This year, she got a lot of pushback for her choice to honor John Galliano with a Costume Institute retrospective at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Even after Galliano withdrew, it seems like controversy isn't over for Wintour.
Hollywood insider Rob Shuter is reporting that Dolly Parton was pitched at least four times to be on the cover of American Vogue before her recent death at the age of 80, which Wintour declined each time.

And if there is one thread connecting her Venice wardrobe so far, it is colour. Pamela has moved from coral pink to vivid clementine and wisteria, with each look offering a different take on glamour.
Oscar de la Renta has become something of a go-to label for Pamela, and this coral-pink cape-effect gown makes it easy to understand why.
The colour is beautiful on her, but it is the cape that sells this for me. Draped across one shoulder and secured with an embellished floral brooch, it gives a relatively simple gown far more presence.

Back when Pamela Anderson was diagnosed with hepatitis C in the '90s, her doctor said she had about 10 years to live. "The Last Showgirl" star opened up about her diagnosis Sept. 6, as she received an award at the amfAR Gala in Venice. "Back in the late '90s, when I was diagnosed with hepatitis C, there was no cure," Anderson said. "I'm sure that colored and corrupted my decisions. It was not fear of death but fear of what might happen to my young children. It turned my life inside out."
The "Baywatch" actress disclosed her diagnosis in 2002, and said she got hepatitis C by sharing a needle with ex-husband rock drummer Tommy Lee. Lee has denied this. Hepatitis C, a viral infection that primarily affects the liver, can exist quietly in the body and is easy to overlook. The infection is spread from blood-to-blood contact. Sharing needles or syringes is the most common cause of new infections, according to Dr. William Carey, a senior hepatologist at Cleveland Clinic in Ohio.

When Pamela Anderson was diagnosed with hepatitis C in the late '90s, there was no cure.
"It was a death sentence. That's what my doctor told me — that I probably had around 10 years to live," the "Baywatch" star recalled in a moving speech at the amfAR Gala in Venice. "I'm sure that colored and corrupted my decisions. It was not fear of death, but fear of what might happen to my young children. It turned my life inside out."
