APOLOGIES
The apology from the American singer Britney Spears to her ex-partner Justin Timberlake for the statements made in her book came just after the release of “Selfish,” Timberlake’s latest musical proposal. The single was sabotaged by Spears fans on digital platforms.
Let us remember that in her memoirs the singer said that during her relationship with Timberlake she had an abortion at his request. This statement caused Timberlake to be canceled by the blonde’s fans and the Spears fandom boycotted the release of the former member of the group Nsync’s latest single.
The singer’s followers decided to popularize the song “Selfish”, a song that the blonde released in 2011. This to eclipse Timberlake’s eponymous release. The piece of music from more than 10 years ago surpassed the premiere just one day after the release.
To “calm the waters,” on her Instagram profile the “Baby one more time” singer praised her ex’s new song. At the same time, she apologized to him for the revelations in his autobiographical book. “I want to apologize for some of the things I wrote in my book. If I have offended any of the people I truly care about, I am deeply sorry,” she wrote.
Spears added that she is delighted by Timberlake’s latest single. “I also wanted to say that I’m in love with Justin Timberlake’s new song ‘Selfish.’ She’s so good and how come every time I see Justin and Jimmy together I laugh so much? P.S.: ‘Sanctified’ is wow too,” she concluded.
“It was a surprise, but for me it was not a tragedy. I loved Justin very much. I always hoped that one day we would have a family together. This alone would be much sooner than he had anticipated. But Justin was definitely not happy about the pregnancy. “He said that we were not prepared to have a baby in our lives, that we were too young,” reads part of the singer’s memoirs.
UNEXPECTED PROTAGONISM
In the absence of King Charles III, who has recently had prostate surgery, and his son William, who will be caring for his wife Catherine, recovering from abdominal surgery, the task of publicly representing the British monarchy will fall to Queen Camilla for an indefinite period.
The health problems of the king, 75, and the Princess of Wales, 42, have almost halved the circle of active members of the royal family.
In the front line is now Camilla, 76, moderately popular, and then the king’s sister, Princess Anne, 73, and Prince Edward, 59, the youngest of Charles III’s brothers, appear.
Prince William, 41, the king’s eldest son and heir to the crown, announced that he is suspending his public activities to be by his wife Catherine’s side in her recovery.
Catherine, after thirteen days admitted to The London Clinic, the same hospital where the king had surgery for his prostate problems, returned on Monday to her residence in Windsor, where the Princes of Wales live with their three children, George, Charlotte and Luis.
The princess, very popular among the British, has not made public appearances since Christmas, and her convalescence, after a mysterious abdominal operation, which kept her in the hospital for thirteen days, promises to be long.
“Unlikely”, according to an official statement, that he will appear in public again before Easter that ends on March 31, despite a “good evolution” after the operation.
The reasons for the surgical intervention that Catalina underwent on January 16 remain a mystery, although cancer has been ruled out, according to the British press.
King Charles III also announced that he was postponing his next commitments “in order to recover,” according to the official statement.
His absence from public events could last for a month, according to some British media.
In this way, Camila will take on an unexpected role.
On Tuesday, the queen attended a reception at Windsor Castle for authors, illustrators and bookbinders working on a collection of miniature books to mark the centenary of the Queen Mary Dollhouse.
“HEALTHY DYNAMICS”
The Spanish publicist Clara Chía (24) has tried to talk to Shakira, but the Colombian refused to talk, according to the El Nacional de Catalunya portal. The new partner of footballer Gerard Piqué supposedly sought an approach with the “Waka Waka” singer by asking her for a date, but she was denied.
“The intention was to explain how things developed between her and Piqué, and maintain a healthy dynamic that did not affect little Milan and Sasha,” the Spanish newspaper wrote.
However, the Barranquilla woman refused the request. “Under no circumstances would she be willing to meet the woman who had marked a turning point in her life and assured that neither she nor her children would have any contact with her,” her publication reads.
The international media reported that Shakira took a legal measure so that Chía cannot get close to her children. “Faced with Clara’s proposal, Shakira took additional measures, including a clause in the custody agreement for her children that specifically prohibits the young Catalan woman from approaching Milan and Sasha,” it was reported.
This “proposal” to approach the Colombian singer comes in the midst of the alleged crisis that the publicist is facing with Gerard Piqué. The Spanish media claim that the soccer player has problems with Chía because of his parents, who are against his daughter’s courtship with Shakira’s ex.
“Clara Chía’s family doesn’t want Piqué, her parents don’t want him,” said Jordi Martin, a renowned Spanish paparazzi, who is related to the information about Shakira and Gerard. The couple, who supposedly had plans to reach the altar, stopped this initiative due to family problems.
CONSPIRACY?
Taylor Swift was already known to be influential, but now Republicans are giving her villainous powers in a conspiracy theory that claims the singer’s romance with NFL star Travis Kelce is actually a plot to fix the Super Bowl. and get President Joe Biden re-elected.
The relationship between the pop star and the Kansas City Chiefs player has captivated the country, fascinated by the images projected on a giant screen of an animated Swift enjoying the games from the stands.
The fandom peaked last weekend, when the Chiefs defeated the Baltimore Ravens to qualify for February’s Super Bowl. In the midst of the celebrations, Swift came down to the field to kiss Kelce, who had just played one of the best games of his life.
But the Republicans did not detect a love story there.
Like their leader Donald Trump, right-wingers see more and more conspiracy theories and this romance was no exception: they consider it a psychological operation against the American people and the November presidential elections.
“Is Taylor Swift an asset of the Pentagon?” was the question posed by the Fox News channel in a debate with a former FBI agent.
A Trump media booster, Laura Loomer, told her more than 800,000 followers on the X network: “The Democrats’ election interference psychological operation with Taylor Swift is happening openly.”
And Vivek Ramaswamy, a failed Republican presidential candidate who now fully endorses Trump’s bid for a second term, suggested there is a plot to boost Biden through a fake Swift-Kelce relationship and a rigged Chiefs victory in the Super Bowl.
“I wonder who is going to win the Super Bowl next month. And I wonder if there will be a major presidential endorsement coming from an artificially set-up couple,” he wrote in X.
GLAMOR AND MODERN ART
Last Monday, the French designer Jacquemus chose a modern art museum on the Côte d’Azur, the Maeght Foundation, to present a collection full of glamour.
Surrounded by paintings by Miró, Léger, Soulages and Kandinsky, the models – men and women – showed creations from a collection with a very sober palette: black, white and just a touch of red.
The large shoulder pads predominate and the width extends to the height of the arms. The sleeves are padded and hide the hands, the neck is open and rounded.
The bustier is a white mold, with a plaster effect, without adhering to the skin, and the evening tuxedo “falls” to one side, like a surreal deformation.
The Pilota leather jacket also makes an appearance, inspired by the one worn by the sculptor Alberto Giacometti, and on the arm the Calino bag in a mini version.
Jacquemus is a young 34-year-old French designer who has caused a sensation in the fashion world both for his collections and for his shows, often off-schedule.
Paris closed its haute couture presentations last week and ready-to-wear will have its appointment in March.
Jacquemus brings together numerous VIPs at his shows. On this occasion, the actress Julia Roberts or the model and influencer Kylie Jenner were among the guests.
