John Leguizamo slams 'moron' Superman star Dean Cain for joining ICE

The actor and comedian called 'moron' Dean Cain out after the former Superman star announced he would be joining ICE John Leguizamo blasted Dean Cain, a vocal Trump supporter, for his decision to sign up with ICE, the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency. ‌ The esteemed actor and advocate, who moved from Colombia to the U.S. at the age of three, took to Instagram with a video lambasting the ex-Superman actor. ‌ Dean, known for his role as Superman in the '90s hit show Lois and Clark: The New Adventures of Superman, has recently been critical of the latest Superman series for its progressive themes. He stirred controversy by announcing on social media his new affiliation with ICE, coinciding with the Department of Homeland Security's push for recruitment following a budget boost. In a fierce critique, the star of Romeo + Juliet mocked, "What kind of loser volunteers to be an ICE officer? What a moron. Dean Cain, your pronouns are 'has/been.'" This clash follows Dean's own video post on social media, where he encouraged others to enlist in ICE. "Hey everybody, Dean Cain here. For those who don't know, I am a sworn law enforcement officer, as well as being a filmmaker, and I felt it was important to join with our first responders to help secure the safety of all Americans, not just talk about it. So, I joined up," he declared, reports the Mirror US. ‌ "Since President Trump took office, ICE has arrested hundreds of thousands of criminals, including terrorists, rapists, murderers, pedophiles, MS-13 gang members, drug traffickers, you name it - very dangerous people who are no longer on the streets," he added. "So now I've spoken with some officials over at ICE, and I will be sworn in as an ICE agent ASAP." ‌ The initiative is part of a broader push by the Trump administration and Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem to boost recruitment efforts. DHS has recently declared plans to scrap the age limit and reduce the minimum age requirement to 18, along with perks such as a $50,000 sign-on bonus and student loan forgiveness. CNN Newsnight's panelists chimed in, too. Commentator Scott Jennings remarked, "Having someone like that out touting it, talking about, 'Hey, this is a thing you can do for your government, this is a public service,' it's going to help them recruit and they have a bunch of people to recruit." Podcaster Van Lathan retorted, "Scott, it's not '95. Nobody gives a Sam Hill what Dean Cain does." He continued, "Dean ain't worked in a while. Dean needs the 50,000. That's what got Dean off the couch. Dean ain't worked in a while. Dean gonna take that money and buy some crypto. Dean need the 50. That's what Dean is on."

Little Mix star Perrie Edwards is set to show off natural beauty after signing huge 6-figure deal with cosmetics giant

Perrie teased new solo music this week to her 18.8million Instagram followers with a montage of footage PERRIE NICE! Little Mix star Perrie Edwards is set to show off natural beauty after signing huge 6-figure deal with cosmetics giant SHE has always loved experimenting with her image and has debuted some dramatic looks over the years. But I have heard that Little Mix star Perrie Edwards is set to show off her natural beauty after landing a lucrative deal with beauty giant L'Oreal. The Black Magic hitmaker has secured an agreement, understood to be worth £300,000, with its skincare brand CeraVe, which prides itself on working with dermatologists and developing products for sensitive skin. A source said: 'Perrie wants to show that taking care of your skin can be affordable and people don't need to break the bank with fancy creams. 'She has always loved testing different make- up looks, but knows that taking care of her skin is a priority. Perrie will also be able to show off her edgy side with the advert.' The singer, who has a three-year-old son, Axel, with former Premier League footballer Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, told Fabulous magazine in 2018: 'I have very sensitive skin, and I used to use loads of products on my face because I thought that was best.' She added: 'The worst thing I used to do was go out partying and drinking and just sleep with my make-up on. 'You think, 'Oh it's only one night, I'm too tired, I really can't be bothered to take all my make-up off'. 'But it only takes one night for a week's worth of acne, so you have to be strict with it.' It comes as Perrie teased new solo music this week to her 18.8million Instagram followers with a montage of footage. She reacted with a raindrop emoji to a fan who commented: 'The drought is over!! So happy and excited for you.' Pop star Perrie last released music in February, with her single Rollercoaster, about the ups and downs that come with love. With this skincare deal and new music on the horizon, little wonder Perrie has such an unblemished career . . .

'I think I got very, very lucky being able to play a lead, which I've been playing for two decades now.' Emilia who is working with My Pension Expert, to encourage people turning 50 to take control of their future, said she is encouraging her teenage daughter Rose to save money. She said: 'She puts away a few pounds every week so that she will see, hopefully, a benefit in the future to saving every week. 'I hope that will be the example she then grows up with. I think having a good work ethic and savings ethic is insurance for life.' SABRINA CARPENTER, who caused a stir with her new album cover, has unveiled an alternative one for Man's Best Friend.

'She has snapped up this home and chose somewhere more modest so she could be closer to her parents, who she spends a lot of time with.
