Christie Brinkley's take on marriage
Christie Brinkley and Kristin Davis discussed marriage and love, among other topics, on the Are You A Charlotte? podcast. During their conversation, the 71-year-old Sports Illustrated model, who has been married four times, compared marriage to a contract one could 'renew' now and then. According to Brinkley, people should have the liberty to decide every five years if they want to remain married to their spouse.
"You could get married, like, 'We'll see if you want to renew it in five years,'' Christie Brinkley was quoted as saying by Fox.
'Every five years, go, 'Do you want to renew?' That way, if you're getting bored or whatever, you can get out of it without all the lawyers and all that stuff," she added on the Are You A Charlotte? podcast.

Jackie Chan feels Hollywood films are not as good now, says big studios don't have 'filmmakers but business guys'
Action superstar Jackie Chan is among those who believe that the quality of Hollywood films has declined over the years. The iconic star recently received a Career Leopard award at the 78th edition of the Locarno Film Festival, where he spoke about the cinema landscape in the modern world. Jackie Chan has shared his blunt assessment of Hollywood films today. (Photo by ANGELA WEISS / AFP)(AFP) Jackie Chan on Hollywood films During an interactive session at the festival, he shared his views on new Hollywood films. The actor said that big studios are stifling creativity through 'their obsession with money'. 'I think the old movies are better than today,' Jackie said, adding, 'Right now, a lot of big studios, they're not filmmakers, they're business guys. They invest 40 million and think, 'How can I get it back?' And you can't go over. It's very difficult to make a good movie now.' The conversation between Jackie Chan and Locarno head Giona Nazzaro took place on Sunday morning. It began with the Hong Kong star running through his career credits, and graduated to the 71-year-old telling multiple lucid and highly entertaining stories about his start in the business to working in Hollywood. Of course, a Jackie Chan conversation had to touch upon some of his most dangerous stunts, and how he completed many of them himself. Jackie Chan's stellar career Jackie Chan remains one of the most recognised and popular film stars on the planet. A martial artist, Chan began as a background performer in films like Fist of Fury, before finding fame as a leading man in the 70s. In the 80s, he became a superstar in Chinese cinema, leading the action comedy genre, making a name for himself with innovative and death-defying stunts. The following decade, he took this expertise to the West, finally breaking through in Hollywood with hits like Rumble in the Bronx, Rush Hour, and Shanghai Noon. Widely regarded as one of the most iconic and influential martial artists in the history of cinema, Jackie Chan's films have grossed close to $6 billion globally.

'I always have to prove' – Klay Thompson's girlfriend Megan Thee Stallion makes subtle joke on her BF as she shares the couple's intense gym moment
Klay Thompson and girlfriend Megan Thee Stallion. Image via: Getty Images Megan Thee Stallion and Klay Thompson have been building a reputation for turning everyday activities into must-watch moments. The latest gym session of the couple is no exception. The 'Savage' hitmaker gave fans a peek into their high-energy workout, mixing playful banter with some seriously tough exercises. The duo appeared doing multiple exercises and later shared fun moments to end the video she shared on social media. Megan Thee Stallion shares workout moments with her boyfriend Klay Thompson This wasn't just any trip to the gym. Megan Thee Stallion joined the Dallas Mavericks shooting guard in an intense session that started with a couple's stretch and quickly escalated. Her first hurdle was Skater squats with dumbbells in hand and a literal chain draped across her. It wasn't smooth sailing at first, but true to form, she mastered the move by the end, living up to her Stallion moniker. Taking to her Instagram, Stallion cheekily admitted in her caption, 'lol I always have to prove I can keep up with him in the gym 😂🤷🏽♀️.' Next came what Klay calls the 'pizza portion' of the workout. For the uninitiated, it's not as delicious as it sounds, weights shaped like pizzas and, later, donuts. The playful twist didn't make it any easier, but Megan powered through, adding her trademark commentary along the way. At one point, she poked fun at Klay for complaining mid-exercise. His response? Calling her a 'drama queen,' which earned an exaggerated, 'WHHHHHHHAAAAT' from her. The session wrapped with more pizza-and-donut squats before the couple cooled off. Klay took a plunge into his pool while Megan, laughing, admitted she stayed out because she can't swim. The day ended with shrimp boats for dinner and a sweet nod from Klay: 'You did everything I could do but better.' Klay Thompson and Megan Thee Stallion often share their couple moments It's not just the gym where these two shine together. Just days before, Megan was in full support mode at Klay's inaugural Sandlot Classic charity baseball game. She was spotted cheering him on from the dugout while her tequila brand, Chicas Divertidas, served as an event sponsor. Klay later shared highlights from the day, crediting his cousin AJ for the win and showing Megan right by his side. Their public appearances have ranged from casual sporting events to glamorous galas, including Megan's Pete & Thomas Foundation Gala last month in New York City. It was their official red carpet debut. On that night, both couldn't stop praising each other. 'Well, it feels incredible because Megan is such a special person and she inspires so many around the world,' Klay told Us Weekly. Megan returned the sentiment to Page Six, saying, 'I have never dated somebody so kind… he makes me genuinely happy. ' Thompson is certainly having his best of the offseason moments with his girlfriend.
