Katy Perry, Justin Trudeau share pint in cozy summer snapshot

Katy Perry and Justin Trudeau were spotted sharing a casual pint together, appearing in high spirits as the former Canadian prime minister looked back on his summer highlights.

Trudeau, 54, posted a montage on Instagram on Friday, capturing key moments from the past few weeks. Among the images was a warm photo of him and Perry, 41, smiling together over drinks.

The post also featured a photo from his meetup with Michelle and Barack Obama, along with a picture from his daughter Ella-Grace’s graduation. A family holiday snapshot rounded out the collection.

In his caption, Trudeau expressed gratitude for the memorable moments and the people who made the summer feel special to him.

The post came shortly after the couple was spotted arriving at a private airport in Olbia, Italy, adding yet another stop to their ongoing travels together.

Trudeau and Perry have now been together for more than a year. Dating rumours first surfaced after they were seen dining together in Montreal last July.

After roughly six months of speculation, the pair confirmed their relationship publicly on Instagram in December. Since then, they’ve made several joint public appearances.

Earlier this summer, the couple made their red carpet debut together at the 25th Annual Tribeca Festival. They also attended the premiere of Perry’s concert film, “Katy Perry: The Lifetimes Tour – Live from Paris.”

Speaking about the relationship at that event, Perry told PEOPLE she feels far more grounded across many areas of her life these days. She described herself as being very much in love.

She added that the concert film’s premiere took place after she’d already met the person she now calls the love of her life. According to Perry, that connection left her feeling far more anchored, especially given how easily she can otherwise feel scattered.

Perry was previously in a long-term relationship with actor Orlando Bloom for nine years. The former couple, who share five-year-old daughter Daisy, ended their relationship in the middle of last year.

    Rihanna back in the studio as A$AP Rocky confirms …

    Rihanna fans may finally have a reason to celebrate after years of waiting. According to A$AP Rocky, the global superstar is officially back in the recording studio and actively working on new music. The exciting update came during Rocky’s appearance on the latest episode of The Jason Lee Show, where the rapper was asked about persistent rumors surrounding Rihanna’s long-awaited ninth studio album. Rather than keeping fans guessing, Rocky confirmed that the singer has returned to work on fresh material.  “She in the studio right now,” Rocky said during the interview. “Yeah, I said it. Sorry, babe. Like, bro, she working. She cooking, no funny s–t. Damn, I’ma get in trouble for this.”  His comments immediately sparked excitement across social media, where fans have spent years eagerly awaiting Rihanna’s next album. The Barbadian singer has not released a full-length studio album since Anti in 2016, despite remaining one of the world’s most-streamed artists. Over the past decade, she has focused on expanding her successful Fenty empire, acting projects, and raising her family with A$AP Rocky.  During the interview, Rocky also dismissed speculation that the couple is secretly working on a joint album. While he confirmed Rihanna is creating new music, he made it clear that fans should not expect a collaborative project featuring both artists. The latest update aligns with Rihanna’s own recent comments about her long-awaited album. Earlier this year, she revealed that she had finally found the creative direction she wanted and was determined to make music that truly reflects her artistic vision instead of chasing commercial trends. She has repeatedly said the lengthy wait will be worthwhile because she refuses to release anything that does not meet her expectations.  Although neither Rihanna nor her team has announced a release date or shared details about the project’s sound, Rocky’s comments are the clearest indication yet that the album is actively taking shape. Fans have grown accustomed to years of rumors and teases, but this confirmation from someone closest to the singer has renewed optimism that new music could finally be on the horizon.  The revelation has already generated widespread buzz online, with many fans expressing cautious excitement after nearly a decade without a studio album. While some remain skeptical until an official announcement arrives, others believe Rocky’s remarks suggest Rihanna’s musical comeback is closer than ever. For now, one thing appears certain: Rihanna is back in the studio, and according to A$AP Rocky, she is “cooking” something special. After years of anticipation, the wait for her next musical chapter may finally be nearing its end.

    Ewan McGregor’s Obi-Wan return sparks excitement around Ahsoka

    Another exciting chapter in the Star Wars universe is officially on its way, with fans getting a fresh look at the upcoming instalment of Ahsoka. Disney unveiled the official trailer on Friday, August 14, offering viewers a glimpse at the major battles, returning characters and new threats that will shape the story. The upcoming film features Rosario Dawson returning as Ahsoka Tano, while the story expands the conflict between the New Republic and the Imperial Remnant. Grand Admiral Thrawn once again emerges as a major threat, bringing renewed danger to the galaxy as the New Republic struggles to contain the growing power of the Empire and the Nightsisters. The trailer also highlights Ahsoka and Sabine Wren’s continuing journey on Peridea, a mysterious world located in another galaxy. Their adventures are expected to play an important role in the new story, while the expanding conflict promises to bring several familiar Star Wars elements back into the spotlight. Among the biggest talking points surrounding the new instalment is the potential return of Ewan McGregor as Obi-Wan Kenobi. McGregor previously portrayed the legendary Jedi throughout the Star Wars prequel trilogy and later reprised the role in the Disney+ series Obi-Wan Kenobi. Fans have continued to hope that McGregor could return for another season of the series, particularly after his emotional reunion with Hayden Christensen, who played Anakin Skywalker. However, McGregor recently admitted that there does not appear to be any major progress toward another season. “There seems to be no — I don’t know of any — progress in that direction,” the actor said while discussing the possibility of returning as Obi-Wan. McGregor nevertheless remains hopeful that more stories featuring the character could eventually be told. He suggested that there are still interesting possibilities for the beloved Jedi, leaving the door open for a future appearance. Although a second season of Obi-Wan Kenobi may not happen soon, fans have not given up hope of seeing McGregor in the role again. His potential involvement in future Star Wars projects continues to generate excitement, especially as the franchise explores new timelines and characters. The upcoming story is also expected to include live-action flashbacks involving Ahsoka and Anakin during the Clone Wars. These sequences could provide additional insight into their relationship and Ahsoka’s development as a Jedi. With the return of Ahsoka, Sabine and Thrawn, along with the continuing Imperial threat and possible connections to Anakin and Obi-Wan, the new instalment is shaping up to be a major event for Star Wars fans. The film is currently expected to arrive on January 20, 2027, giving audiences plenty of reason to anticipate another major chapter in the galaxy far, far away.

    Houthi Red Sea blockade threat raises fears of wider global energy disruption

    A new threat by Yemen’s Houthi movement to impose a maritime blockade on Saudi Arabia has raised concerns about global energy supplies as tensions across the Middle East continue to escalate. The announcement comes at a time when shipping through the Strait of Hormuz has already been disrupted, increasing fears that two of the region’s most important oil routes could be affected at the same time. The Iran aligned Houthi group said it plans to target Saudi Arabia through a blockade in the Red Sea. While the group has not explained how it intends to enforce the measure, the warning has intensified concerns over the security of international shipping and energy exports. The Bab el Mandeb Strait at the southern entrance to the Red Sea is one of the world’s most important maritime routes. It connects the Red Sea with the Gulf of Aden and serves as a key passage for oil shipments travelling between the Middle East, Europe and Asia. Since disruptions in the Strait of Hormuz, Saudi Arabia has redirected much of its crude oil exports to its Red Sea port of Yanbu. From there, shipments bound for Europe pass through the Suez Canal, while cargo heading to Asian markets travels south through the Bab el Mandeb Strait. Industry data shows that oil exports from Yanbu have increased sharply over the past year, making the Red Sea an increasingly vital route for global energy markets. Millions of barrels of petroleum now pass through the Bab el Mandeb every day, helping to stabilise international oil supplies despite ongoing tensions elsewhere in the region. Analysts warn that any serious disruption in the Red Sea could significantly affect global energy prices by restricting another major export route from the Gulf. Saudi Arabia is reportedly considering expanding its pipeline network to the Red Sea coast to reduce dependence on vulnerable sea lanes. The Houthis have been involved in conflict with Yemen’s internationally recognised government for more than a decade and have previously launched missile and drone attacks against Saudi Arabia. Although a truce reached in 2022 reduced fighting, tensions have risen again following recent military strikes around Sanaa. The latest escalation began after Yemen’s recognised government said it had targeted Sanaa airport to prevent an Iranian aircraft from landing. The Houthis blamed Saudi Arabia for the attack and responded by firing missiles towards Abha airport in southern Saudi Arabia. A senior Houthi official later warned that continued escalation could lead to the closure of the Bab el Mandeb Strait. Although the Houthis maintain that they make their own military decisions, the United States has long accused Iran of supplying the group with weapons, funding and training. The Houthis reject claims that they act as an Iranian proxy. The movement previously disrupted international shipping after the outbreak of the Gaza war in late 2023. It launched attacks on commercial vessels in the Red Sea, saying the operations were intended to support Palestinians. Those attacks forced many major shipping companies to reroute vessels around southern Africa, increasing transport costs and delaying deliveries worldwide. Although Red Sea traffic had begun recovering after attacks eased, shipping through the Suez Canal remains well below previous levels. The latest Houthi threat has renewed fears that instability could once again disrupt one of the world’s busiest trade routes. During the recent conflict involving Iran, the Houthis played a more limited military role than other armed groups aligned with Tehran. However, their latest announcement suggests they may now be prepared to increase pressure on regional rivals, raising fresh concerns over the security of global energy supplies and international trade.

    “Forgotten by everyone?” Talha Anjum raises troubling questions over hostages

    Pakistani rapper Talha Anjum has once again highlighted the plight of Pakistani sailors reportedly being held hostage by Somali pirates, saying that the issue has been forgotten by both the media and the public. In an Instagram story shared on Thursday, Anjum criticised the authorities’ response and said the government had failed to protect Pakistani citizens, whether inside the country or abroad. He expressed concern that the families of the affected sailors were still waiting for answers and support. “The media forgot about these families and sadly, so did the people of Pakistan,” Anjum said while calling for urgent action to secure the release of the hostages. The ship was reportedly hijacked by pirates off the coast of Somalia in April, sparking concern and calls for efforts to bring the Pakistani sailors home. Anjum had previously raised his voice on the issue, saying he personally knew one of the crew members and considered him like a brother. At the time, the rapper criticised what he described as a lack of seriousness from authorities and urged officials to take immediate steps for the safe return of the stranded sailors. . Several other Pakistani celebrities, including Mahira Khan, Sabeena Farooq, and Bushra Ansari, have also spoken publicly in support of the affected sailors and their families. The families of the crew members continue to await further developments as calls grow for renewed efforts to secure their safe release.

    Trump administration plans to revoke visas of fore…

    The Trump administration plans to revoke certain non-immigrant visas held by foreign nationals who have applied for asylum or are currently seeking asylum in the United States. The State Department said Monday that it is working with the Department of Homeland Security to identify people who entered the country as temporary visitors but later filed asylum applications. Officials said the goal is to revoke their visitor visas. The department did not provide an estimate of how many visas could be affected. However, the Associated Press reported that the number could reach 200,000, based on State Department documents and information from two U.S. officials. If carried out at that scale it could become the largest mass visa revocation in U.S. history. The reported policy would affect B1 and B2 visas issued between 2016 and 2026 to people who have sought asylum. B1 visas are generally used for business travel while B2 visas cover tourism and other temporary visits. Visa cancellation would not automatically mean immediate deportation. According to the AP report many people with pending asylum cases could remain in the United States while their cases are processed but they would no longer hold their previous business or tourism visitor status. Deputy Secretary of State Christopher Landau said Monday that the U.S. immigration system has been overwhelmed by what he described as frivolous asylum claims. The State Department previously announced that more than 175,000 visas had been revoked under the Trump administration. The planned visa action is part of President Donald Trump’s broader immigration enforcement campaign which includes visa and green-card cancellations and an expanded deportation effort. The administration says these measures are intended to strengthen national security and enforce U.S. immigration laws. Civil rights and immigrant advocacy groups have criticized the broader crackdown arguing that some government actions threaten due process and free-speech protections. They have also raised concerns about racial profiling and the treatment of minority communities. Trump campaigned in 2024 on promises to reduce illegal immigration. Since returning to office, his administration has also introduced measures affecting legal immigration, including higher costs for some employment-based visa programs. Several immigration policies have faced legal challenges in U.S. courts.

Tickets are being sold through Ticketwala, with Bronze, Silver, Gold, VIP and Platinum categories available. Limited early-bird pricing is currently on offer across select tiers. Organisers also confirmed a dedicated Pink section has been reserved exclusively for solo women, reflecting the event’s stated commitment to providing a safe, welcoming environment for all attendees.
