‘Doctor Who' frontman Ncuti Gatwa rules time and space in style
Trust him, he's a doctor. Ncuti Gatwa is a man of many faces. One of a handful of breakout stars from Netflix's 'Sex Education' — who also count 'White Lotus' fan favorite Aimee Lou Wood among their ranks — the Rwandan-Scottish actor went on to appear in Greta Gerwig's 'Barbie' before taking up the mantle of what is perhaps the BBC's most iconic role, becoming the Fifteenth Doctor in 'Doctor Who.' After two seasons, Gatwa's time in the TARDIS has apparently come to an end. But allow us to use this opportunity to point out just how much he's been dominating the red carpet — in addition to dominating space and time. 3 Gatwa dons Prada and Burberry attending events for the respective brands. Images: Getty Images Collaborating with stylist Felicity Kay — whose other clients include Lou Wood herself, and the ever-dashing 'Gladiator II' star Paul Mescal — Gatwa has demonstrated an aptitude for making the styles of iconic fashion houses look completely his own. Take this Prada set for the British Vogue x GQ BAFTA Fashion & Film Party in February, which in Gatwa's hands transforms from a classic, buttoned-up style to a perfect pairing with Tiffany & Co. bling. Shortly afterwards, Gatwa made an appearance at British fashion house Burberry's winter 2025 show, keeping it cool in a leather jacket and trousers with a peek-a-boo zipper detail. 3 From left: Gatwa rocks more Prada, Irish designer Simone Rocha and bold Etro. 3 From left: Gatwa is vivacious in Valentino, Ozwald Boateng and Prada at three separate events. Images: Getty Images And if you felt tremors in the ground the week of March 24, that was Gatwa landing in New York before pulling out a succession of incredible looks while promoting 'Doctor Who.' The actor appeared on 'Good Morning America' in impeccable Prada and wore a playful denim set from designer Simone Rocha the same day. He then stepped out in canary yellow trousers from Etro, and concluded a busy couple of days in show-stopping, velvet Valentino with a ruff collar for an appearance on 'The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon.' No round-up would be complete without mentioning Gatwa's custom togs for the 2025 Met Gala: a rich purple suit courtesy of British-Ghanaian tailor extraordinaire Ozwald Boateng. And while we have your attention, we might as well mention that we loved the actor's third Prada look in recent history, this one a bright white camisole and pants, with an effortlessly draped denim jacket overtop.

Chinese Labubu doll sparks global shopping frenzy fueling billions of dollars
They're scary, but cute – and taking the internet by storm as customers race to get their hands on Labubus. Distributed exclusively by Chinese-based retailer Pop Mart, it's become near impossible to buy one of the plush pendant toy collectibles as they sell out online almost nightly, and people wait in hours-long lines to purchase them in-person. Advertisement But what is a Labubu? And why do people care so much about it? Labubu was founded by Hong Kong-born artist Kasing Lung, who became inspired by Nordic supernatural folklore and children's imaginative abilities to create Labubu and the larger 'Monsters' figurine series. Despite the first Labubu hitting the market in 2015, demand still outpaces supply in 2025. They quickly gained popularity after being sported on the designer bags of celebrities like Rihanna, Dua Lipa, BLACKPINK's Lisa, David Beckham, Emma Roberts, Hillary Duff, Kim Kardashian and countless others. Advertisement Labubus cost anywhere between $21.99 and $39.99, and its most popular form comes as a fluffy, plush pendant with an attachable clip. They're sold in 'blind boxes,' which means customers won't know what variety of Labubu they got until it's opened. However, Labubu products are regularly out of stock in Pop Mart's online store and app. In-person restockings happen at their stores once a week at 10 a.m. every Friday, and social media users have posted long lines that tend to be hundreds of people deep. 3 Shoppers have been waiting in hours-long lines to purchase a Labubu. AFP via Getty Images Advertisement 3 Labubu gained popularity when celebrities featured the toy on their designer bags. AP In the United Kingdom, Pop Mart announced it would stop selling Labubu products in their stores for safety reasons following reported brawls that had broken out among customers. To make the supply-demand imbalance worse, so-called reseller 'bots' allegedly sweep Pop Mart's website and app for new drops, and buy Labubus in mass quantities. On resale platforms like StockX, rare editions have asking prices of up to $450. Advertisement Labubu has even sparked counterfeit admiration, with some customers opting for a knock-off version dubbed 'Lafufu,' often with a much cheaper price tag and manufacturing differences. 3 Labubu is distributed exclusively by Chinese-based retailer Pop Mart. AFP via Getty Images Pop Mart did not respond to Fox News Digital's request for comment, or clarification on whether US-China trade tensions could bump up Labubu's regular retail prices even higher. Some social media users have started sharing what they call 'Labubu-nomics,' or buying methods that seem to be effective in beating out bots. There's a supposed URL-editing trick, a rapid thumb-clicking method and regularly checking Pop Mart's third-party stores via Amazon and TikTok shop livestreams. Last month, Pop Mart CEO and Chairman Wang Ning became $1.6 billion richer in a single day due to American buyers lining up for their own Labubu, Forbes reported.

Blades sign young winger Ukaki on three-year deal
Blades boss Chris Wilder says new signing Ehije Ukaki was identified by the club's data driven strategy [Getty Images] Sheffield United have signed Nigerian youngster Ehije Ukaki from Bulgarian club Botev Plovdiv on a three-year contract for an undisclosed fee. Most commonly deployed as a winger, the 20-year-old follows in the footsteps of former team-mate Christian Nwachukwu in moving to Bramall Lane. Advertisement Last season, Ukaki scored seven times in 37 appearances across all competitions for the Bulgarian top-flight outfit. He notably netted the winning goal in the Plovdiv derby against rivals Lokomotiv in December. "Ehije is a player who has been identified through our data driven strategy and is someone we're looking forward to developing," Blades boss Chris Wilder told the club website. "He's an emerging talent, still only 20, who has enjoyed some experience of European football early in his career, so there's a base to work from."
