Jennifer Lopez dazzles in Jeddah with a Formula 1 performance

Gulf Insider21-04-2025
Global pop icon Jennifer Lopez made a stunning appearance at the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix in Jeddah, stealing the spotlight both on and off the racetrack during one of the most anticipated events on the Formula 1 calendar.
Lopez was in attendance as a VIP guest of Ferrari and was seen touring the team's garage, posing with driver Charles Leclerc, and enjoying a full paddock experience. She also met with Formula 1 CEO Stefano Domenicali during her visit to the Jeddah Corniche Circuit.
According to People magazine, Lopez turned heads in a bold latex pink catsuit paired with silver and pink accessories. She later shared moments from her trip on Instagram with the caption: 'Spreading a little sparkle at Formula 1,' adding a shimmering pink heart emoji. InStyle also featured her glamorous appearance.
On Saturday night, Lopez capped off her visit with a high-energy live performance at the post-race concert — her first concert at a sporting event in over 11 years. The crowd went wild as she delivered hits like On the Floor and Ain't Your Mama, lighting up the stage alongside global artists including Usher, Major Lazer, and Peggy Gou. The show also featured Arab artists such as Marwan Pablo, Hisham Abbas, Mostafa Amar, and Hamid El Shaeri.
Ferrari's Instagram post featuring Lopez garnered more than 279,000 likes — significantly more than their usual posts — highlighting the buzz around her presence.
With over 80 million albums sold and more than $3 billion in global box office revenue, Jennifer Lopez remains the only entertainer to simultaneously top both the U.S. box office and music charts.

Taylor Swift announces 12th album for ‘pre pre-order'

US popstar Taylor Swift announced her 12th album, titled 'The Life of a Showgirl,' for 'pre pre-order' just after midnight Tuesday in posts on her website. Her online shop displayed blurred images of a record, CD and cassette tape overlaid with a glittery orange lock, explaining the album artwork would be 'revealed at a later date.' A disclaimer also notes that the release date has not yet been announced, and the album will ship before October 13. 'So I wanted to show you something,' the singer says in a video clip posted to her Instagram as she holds up a vinyl album, its cover completely blurred. 'This is my brand new album 'The Life of a Show Girl',' she says in the clip from the 'New Heights' podcast, hosted by her boyfriend, American football player Travis Kelce, and his brother, exNFL player Jason Kelce. 'TS12!' Travis Kelce exclaims in the video. 'The Life of a Showgirl' is the follow-up to Swift's last studio album, ' The Tortured Poets Department,' which was released last year and sold 1.4 million copies the first day. Since 2021, she has been making good on her vow to re-record her first six studio records in a bid to own the rights to them. In May, the 14 - time Grammy Award winner, who was locked in a feud with record executives since 2019 over the ownership of her music, said she had bought back the rights to her entire back catalog for an undisclosed sum. The 35-year-old songwriting sensation shattered records with her nearly two-year-long Eras tour that ended last year. It raked in $2 billion over 149 shows around the world, making it the most lucrative tour in music history.

Sophie Turner hits back at Instagram critic

Bang Showbiz | Los Angeles Sophie Turner has hit back after she was criticised for going out with her friends. The Game of Thrones actress - who has Willa, four, and Delphine, two, with ex-husband Joe Jonas - shared some photos and videos of herself and her friends watching Oasis at London's Wembley Stadium last week, prompting an allegation she had 'forgotten' about her daughters, much to her annoyance. A comment on her Instagram post read: 'lmfao i think she has forgotten that she has two kids.' Sophie hit back: 'ah I'm so sorry sometimes I forget some people can't think for themselves. 'So…. Get this….There's this crazy thing called shared custody. Maybe, just maybe, they were with their dad that day.' Joe previously praised 29-year-old Sophie - who he split from in 2023 after four years of marriage - as a great role model for their daughters. He said: 'Having an incredible mum, Sophie, for those girls is like a dream come true. 'As young girls, looking up to great women is what I want for them. I think what values I want for them are to be open-minded and have a big heart.' Joe added he hopes Willa and Delphine will 'be able to walk into any room and feel confidence and know that they can do literally anything they want.' And the Sucker singer is happy with the co-parenting relationship he and the 29-year-old actress have established. He told the School of Greatness podcast: 'I have a great co-parenting relationship, which is really important to me.' He described being a father to his 'beautiful' children as 'the greatest joy and journey ', while praising the influence Sophie has on their kids.

The Special Squad

July 31 - August 6 ,2025 By Melissa Nazareth A new comic series, dedicated to children with special needs has been launched in Bahrain, expressing solidarity and empathy with them and their caregivers, writes Melissa Nazareth. The Special Squad is the latest initiative of Shahzaib's Club House, a local community of differently abled people, and tackles topics like regulating difficult emotions, common apprehensions felt by differently abled individuals and pursuing ambitions against the odds, among others. The comics are brought alive as conversations, inspired by real-life dialogues the children at the club house have had with their parents, teachers or others. 'While the comic series was born in Bahrain, its heartbeat is universal, and we're thrilled to have started it in collaboration with a creative agency in Pakistan,' club house founder and director Amena Shahrukh told GulfWeekly. 'The Special Squad is a visual story world where children of determination aren't pitied or 'managed'. They take centre stage and are bold, tender, hilarious, curious and unapologetically themselves. Each comic is a real conversation. These stories reflect what really happens at Shahzaib's Club House,' she added. Amena started the club house, registered under Bahrain Mobility International, three years ago, as an extension of her personal journey with her late son, Mohammed Shahzaib Lali, who was differently abled. He died of pneumonia at the age of 21. Talking about plans for the comic series, Amena revealed that she hopes to publish them as a book and eventually launch themed merchandise. 'We will be releasing merchandise for special children, designed to uplift, inspire and represent them like never before,' she added. To read the comics, follow @shahzaibsclubhouse on Instagram.
