He mentioned Trump’s team’s appeal to a court in Maine against Secretary of State Shenna Bellows’ ruling that excluded him from the vote based on the 14th Amendment. A similar situation occurred in Colorado, where a group of Republicans challenged a similar decision that prevented Trump from participating in the elections.

Abrams sparred with Stephanopoulos about the chances of the Supreme Court taking up Trump’s legal challenge to the Maine and Colorado rulings. He expressed confidence that the Supreme Court will take up the case, noting that Trump’s team has several arguments, including issues of due process, definition and the need for congressional action.

Stephanopoulos highlighted the Supreme Court’s reluctance to intervene in elections, suggesting it may be difficult to defend the Maine and Colorado decisions. Abrams agreed, but argued that Trump has valid legal arguments such as lack of due process, emphasizing that if the Supreme Court accepts any of these arguments, Trump will emerge victorious.

Kelly was married to Brandon Blackstock for nearly seven years, before the singer filed for divorce in June 2020. “Because I’ve been through a couple divorces in my family, I just don’t like to put any weight on it. It can happen; it doesn’t have to happen”, she explained.

“For my kids, I definitely would never even think about it until they’re out of my house”, added Clarkson. She and Blackstock share daughter River Rose, 9, and son Remington “Remy” Alexander, 7. 

The “Because Of You” songstress also said in the interview that she is not interested in finding her soulmate anytime soon. “Dating sucks. It’s so awkward. I was single until I was, like, 30, and I forgot how really good at that I am”. 

“I told a friend [that my future partner] would have to be an individual that brings their own life to the table without needing anything from me. It’s far more romantic to say, ‘I want you, but I don’t need anything.’ I’m really good right now, I’m having a good time”, added Kelly.

“It’s feeling better. Certain movements bother [it] more than others. There’s some things that I can do and there’s some areas where I have totally normal strength and it’s functional and all that, but in certain positions there’s some aggravation”, said Lawrence after the practice. 

“That’s getting better every day but still would like to see that go down a little bit more before I just totally let it loose”, he added. The quarterback also said that he has not done much throwing since he suffered the injury, so he was looking forward to testing his shoulder. 

“Missing last week’s game a little slower than I would’ve liked it to be progressing, but it actually feels pretty decent today. It’s getting better every day, so just trying to be cautious but also, I guess, aggressive in how I’m trying to treat it and just everything I can to get back as quick as possible”, added Lawrence.

Mbappe’s contract expires in the summer, and he has already been linked with a move to Real Madrid. Back in June, the forward had already informed PSG that he would not accept the option to extend his contract by another 12 months.

Speaking after PSG beat Toulouse 2-0 to claim the French Champions Trophy this Wednesday (3), Mbappe said: “First of all, I’m very, very, very motivated for this year. It’s very important”.

“As I said, we’ve got titles to go after and we’ve already won one, so that’s already done. After that, no, I haven’t made up my mind yet. But in any case, with the agreement I made with the chairman [Nasser Al-Khelaifi] this summer, it doesn’t matter what I decide”, he continued. 

“We managed to protect all parties and preserve the club’s serenity for the challenges ahead, which remains the most important thing. So we’ll say it’s secondary”, added the forward. 

Mbappe joined PSG in 2017, initially on loan from Monaco, before a 180 million euro (165.7 million pounds) transfer. He was set to leave on a free at the end of the 2021-22 season, but then signed a two-year contract extension with the option of a further year.

After saying he wouldn’t accept the extra 12 months on his contract, Mbappe wasn’t called up for PSG’s pre-season tour to Japan in the summer. He subsequently refused to meet with representatives of Al-Hilal, from the Saudi League, who made a world record offer of 259 million pounds for the player. 

He later returned to first-team training and PSG said that the talks had been “very constructive and positive”.

The reports claimed that Charli XCX and Julia Michaels had been asked to write songs for Britney’s new album. The singer denied the claims. “Just so we’re clear most of the news is trash !!! They keep saying I’m turning to random people to do a new album…”, she started.

“I will never return to the music industry !!! When I write, I write for fun or I write for other people !!!”, Britney continued, in an Instagram post. The pop star also said that she had written more than 20 songs for other artists over the past two years. 

“For those of you who have read my book, there’s loads that you don’t know about me … I’ve written over 20 songs for other people the past two years !!! I’m a ghostwriter and I honestly enjoy it that way !!!”. No songs written by Spears have ever been released, leading to the possibility that she uses a pseudonym to write for others.

“People are also saying MY BOOK WAS RELEASED WITHOUT MY APPROVAL ILLEGALLY and that’s far from the truth … have you read the news these days ??? I’m so LOVED and blessed !!!”, she finished the post. 

Britney hasn’t released a full album since 2016. In her memoir “The Woman in Me”, she wrote that, despite her recent collaboration with Elton John, “advancing my music career is not my focus right now. It’s time for me not to be someone other people want; it’s time for me to find myself.”

Actress and producer of the film, Margot Robbie, reinforced that her producer, Lucky Chap, stated that the film “was not meant to be a trilogy” and that she plans to look for a “big, original and bold idea” to create a new phenomenon on the big screen (via Variety).

“It’s funny the knee-jerk reaction these days is for everyone to immediately ask about a sequel,” said Robbie. “I don’t think it was like this 20 years ago.”

As a result, according to her, the exhaustion that the production caused for everyone involved, including the director and screenwriter Greta Gerwig, was very great and she doesn’t know “how to recharge that energy again”.

“[At Lucky Chap] we want to make more films that have the effect that Barbie had. I don’t know if it has to be a Barbie 2”. 

“Why can’t it be another big, original, bold idea where we have an incredible filmmaker, a big budget to play with, and the trust of a huge conglomerate behind us to go and really have fun? I want to do this,” concluded Robbie.

Barbie, co-starring the likes of Margot Robbie, Ryan Gosling, Simu Liu, America Ferrera and Will Ferrell, was released in theaters in June and grossed more than $1.4 billion globally. The film was nominated in several categories at the Golden Globes and Critic’s Choice Awards.

It was the Australian’s second triumph against a top 10 tennis player at the start of the season – he also beat American Taylor Fritz for the United Cup.

“It’s extremely special. Novak is an unbelievable competitor and what he’s done for the sport is very special. It’s surreal, incredible and I’m happy to do it here in Perth and in Australia”.

“At the end of the day, when you go against Novak, you just need to go out there, try and have fun, support each other and no matter what happens, keep fighting until the end. It was my day. I’m happy I was able to beat it. It definitely means a lot,” said De Minaur.

Steve Kerr, coach of the Golden State Warriors, praised Stephen Curry’s performance and highlighted the importance of having an exceptional player: “Steph is always incredible. Even when he doesn’t score 36 points, he draws the attention of his opponents defensively and opens up space in the attack. He’s a remarkable player. He really stood out on a night when we needed to win.” The performance wasn’t limited to Curry; Congolese Jonathan Kuminga also performed well, scoring 19 points, four more than Klay Thompson. This was the Warriors’ 16th win of the season.

Kerr emphasized the team’s solidarity and the search for alternatives to guarantee victory: “It was a game in which the team found ways to win. I think the entire team was supportive, and the positive result against the Orlando Magic was the most important”. On the Magic side, Paolo Banchero stood out with 27 points and 12 rebounds, while Franz Wagner contributed 25 points. However, these efforts were not enough to avoid defeat.
