Demi Lovato Marries Jordan 'Jutes' Lutes in Romantic Ceremony
Yara Sameh Demi Lovato and her partner, Jordan "Jutes" Lutes tied the knot in a romantic ceremony in California on Sunday. For her walk down the aisle, Lovato donned a custom "pearl white" Vivenne Westwood gown with a corset bodice and a cathedral-style tulle veil. "I have been a fan of Vivienne Westwood's designs for a long time,' she told Vogue . 'When I was thinking about [what dress style I wanted], I often found myself coming back to Vivienne's designs — specifically how the silhouettes really complement the curves in your body, and her use of corsets,' she added. Lovato, who collaborated with the Westwood team on the design, gushed, 'I love everything about the dress." As for the reception, she wore into a second Westwood look, an ivory silk satin column dress with a draped corset top, per Vogue. The design featured broken pearls trailing from the neckline. "It's a one-of-a-kind piece that makes me feel so special," the singer said. According to the outlet, the newlyweds hosted a rehearsal dinner on the eve of their wedding. After a run-through of their ceremony, overseen by celebrity event planner Mindy Weiss, the group enjoyed an intimate meal. Ahead of their wedding, Lovato expressed her excitement to marry Jutes via a sweet post on Instagram on February 14. "Jordan, I cannot WAIT to marry you!! The past 3 years have been the best 3 years of my life and I have you to thank for that," she wrote alongside sweet photos of them posing together next to a vintage Porsche. "I'm obsessed with your heart, your love and your light. I can't wait to grow old with you and start a family together 🥹🥹 Happy Valentine's Day to the love of my life. I love you honey!!!". Lovato and Jutes met during a writing session for Lovato's album "Holy Fvck" and went public with their romance in August 2022. Jutes popped the question in a 'personal and intimate proposal' in Los Angeles on December 16, 2023. "You know, I've waited my whole life for him," Lovato told PEOPLE in September 2024. "It's very grounding to have a partner that is so supportive, so loving, so caring. It's very easy to stay centered with him because I love him so much and he treats me so amazing." However, the couple didn't rush tying the knot. Jutes revealed to the outlet in October 2024 that they didn't want to worry about wedding planning. "We're not trying to stress ourselves out,' he said. 'I feel like a lot of weddings can be stressful and very quick, and so we're on it, but we're also taking our time, and we're also just enjoying being engaged.' "We're not trying to skip engagement to get right to wedding," he added. "We're just basking in it and soaking it up. We'll be married forever. We just want to enjoy every step." During a September 2023 appearance on the PodcastOne podcast LadyGang, Lovato opened up about her first interaction with Jutes while they worked on her eighth studio album. "I texted my friends and was like, 'Oh my God, the hottest guy just walked in. I am so nervous. I don't know what to do with myself,' " she said. The singer noted that it took 'a couple months' for them to become romantically involved. Their collaboration resulted in Jutes co-writing Lovato's tracks "Substance," "Happy Ending," and "City of Angels." In August 2023, he gushed about the singer's talents and their romance in an Instagram tribute written in honor of Lovato's birthday. 'Your heart has changed lives all over the planet… especially some dude from a farm in canada who wound up in your session over a year ago,' Jutes wrote. 'I didn't know the perfect person existed until i met u. but now that i do, i'm gunna spend the rest of my life protecting u and doing whatever i can to squeeze another smile n belly laugh outta u. i couldn't be more proud to call u my baby.' Lovato got candid about what makes their relationship work during an appearance on SiriusXM's The Howard Stern Show in September 2023. 'He has the best personality. We laugh nonstop,' she said. 'There's this partnership there that is just so magnetic, and the way that we laugh together — it's just nonstop. So I think if you can find someone that makes you feel safe, that you're so attracted to, that you laugh with constantly, that's the formula of a really great relationship.' read more New Tourism Route To Launch in Old Cairo Ahmed El Sakka-Led Play 'Sayidati Al Jamila' to Be Staged in KSA on Dec. 6 Mandy Moore Joins Season 2 of "Dr. Death" Anthology Series Don't Miss These Movies at 44th Cairo Int'l Film Festival Today Amr Diab to Headline KSA's MDLBEAST Soundstorm 2022 Festival Arts & Culture Mai Omar Stuns in Latest Instagram Photos Arts & Culture "The Flash" to End with Season 9 Arts & Culture Ministry of Culture Organizes four day Children's Film Festival Arts & Culture Canadian PM wishes Muslims Eid-al-Adha News Egypt confirms denial of airspace access to US B-52 bombers News Ayat Khaddoura's Final Video Captures Bombardment of Beit Lahia News Australia Fines Telegram $600,000 Over Terrorism, Child Abuse Content Arts & Culture Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban's $4.7M LA Home Burglarized Sports Former Al Zamalek Player Ibrahim Shika Passes away after Long Battle with Cancer Sports Neymar Announced for Brazil's Preliminary List for 2026 FIFA World Cup Qualifiers News Prime Minister Moustafa Madbouly Inaugurates Two Indian Companies Arts & Culture New Archaeological Discovery from 26th Dynasty Uncovered in Karnak Temple Business Fear & Greed Index Plummets to Lowest Level Ever Recorded amid Global Trade War Arts & Culture Zahi Hawass: Claims of Columns Beneath the Pyramid of Khafre Are Lies

"The Hunger Games: Sunrise on the Reaping" Adds Kieran Culkin as Caesar Flickerman
Yara Sameh Oscar and Emmy winner Kieran Culkin has joined the cast of 'The Hunger Games: Sunrise on the Reaping' as magnanimous host Caesar Flickerman. Stanley Tucci played the role in the original quartet of films. Culkin joins previously announced cast members Joseph Zada as Haymitch Abernathy, Whitney Peak as Lenore Dove Baird, Mckenna Grace as Maysilee Donner, Jesse Plemons as Plutarch Heavensbee, Maya Hawke as Wiress, Kelvin Harrison Jr. as Beetee, Lili Taylor as Mags, Ben Wang as Wyatt, Elle Fanning as Effie Trinket, and Ralph Fiennes as President Snow. Molly McCann will also appear as Louella, while Iona Bell will portray her Capitol-assigned lookalike, Lou Lou. The new film, based on Suzanne Collins' novel of the same name, revisits the world of Panem nearly a quarter of a century before the events of those films, where Woody Harrelson's Haymitch Abernathy served as a mentor to Jennifer Lawrence's Katniss Everdeen and Josh Hutcherson's Peeta Mellark. In 'Sunrise on the Reaping,' Haymitch is the main character, as the action begins on the morning of the reaping of the 50th Hunger Games, known as the Second Quarter Quell, in which he enters the deadly arena. 'Kieran's scene-stealing presence and undeniable charm are perfect for Caesar Flickerman, the sickeningly watchable host of Panem's darkest spectacle. Stanley Tucci made Caesar unforgettable—and now Kieran will make the role entirely his own,' said Lionsgate Motion Picture Group co-president Erin Westerman. Culkin joins the franchise amid the hottest streak of his long career. Earlier this year, the actor collected the best supporting actor Oscar (as well as nearly every other precursor prize) for his performance opposite Jesse Eisenberg in 'A Real Pain.' He's halfway to EGOT status after winning the lead actor drama Emmy for the final season of HBO's 'Succession,' where he played Roman Roy. Culkin currently appears on Broadway starring in the sold out run of 'Glengarry Glen Ross' with Bob Odenkirk and Bill Burr. The film adaptation of 'The Hunger Games: Sunrise on the Reaping' will be released on November 20, 2026. Lawrence, who has helmed every installment of the franchise since 2012's 'Catching Fire,' will direct from a screenplay adaptation by Billy Ray. Color Force's Nina Jacobson and Brad Simpson will produce. Cameron MacConomy will executive produce. The five films in the franchise so far have taken in over $3.3 billion at the box office. 'Sunrise on the Reaping' sold 1.5 million copies in its first week on sale in the U.S., U.K., Ireland, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand. The 1.2 million copies sold in the U.S. are twice the first week sales of 'The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes' and three times the first week sales of 'Mockingjay.' 'Kieran's magnetism, wit, and unpredictability make him a perfect fit for Caesar Flickerman,' Jacobson said. 'A host like Caesar transforms brutality into entertainment, and an actor as layered as Kieran makes sure we don't look away.' Meredith Wieck and Scott O'Brien are overseeing the project for Lionsgate. Phil Strina negotiated the deal for the studio. read more New Tourism Route To Launch in Old Cairo Ahmed El Sakka-Led Play 'Sayidati Al Jamila' to Be Staged in KSA on Dec. 6 Mandy Moore Joins Season 2 of "Dr. Death" Anthology Series Don't Miss These Movies at 44th Cairo Int'l Film Festival Today Amr Diab to Headline KSA's MDLBEAST Soundstorm 2022 Festival Arts & Culture Mai Omar Stuns in Latest Instagram Photos Arts & Culture "The Flash" to End with Season 9 Arts & Culture Ministry of Culture Organizes four day Children's Film Festival Arts & Culture Canadian PM wishes Muslims Eid-al-Adha News Egypt confirms denial of airspace access to US B-52 bombers News Ayat Khaddoura's Final Video Captures Bombardment of Beit Lahia News Australia Fines Telegram $600,000 Over Terrorism, Child Abuse Content Arts & Culture Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban's $4.7M LA Home Burglarized Sports Former Al Zamalek Player Ibrahim Shika Passes away after Long Battle with Cancer Sports Neymar Announced for Brazil's Preliminary List for 2026 FIFA World Cup Qualifiers News Prime Minister Moustafa Madbouly Inaugurates Two Indian Companies Arts & Culture New Archaeological Discovery from 26th Dynasty Uncovered in Karnak Temple Business Fear & Greed Index Plummets to Lowest Level Ever Recorded amid Global Trade War Arts & Culture Zahi Hawass: Claims of Columns Beneath the Pyramid of Khafre Are Lies

"Fallout" Renewed for Season 3 Ahead of Season 2 Premiere
Yara Sameh Prime Video has renewed the hit video game series 'Fallout' for a Season 3 ahead of the Season 2 premiere this December. Season 2 'will pick up in the aftermath of Season One's epic finale and take audiences along for a journey through the wasteland of the Mojave to the post-apocalyptic city of New Vegas.' To date, more than 100 million viewers have watched Season 1, putting it in the top three Prime Video titles ever. The video game adaptation was a hit when it premiered in April 2024, and it's based on the popular post-apocalyptic gaming franchise of the same name. The show follows Ella Purnell's protagonist Lucy MacLean as she emerges from an underground vault after a nuclear war devastates the world. Along the way, she meets a variety of terrifying, nuclear-irradiated creatures and characters as she looks for her father Hank, played by Kyle Maclachlan, who was kidnapped by raiders. The cast also includes Aaron Moten as Maximus, a power armor-wearing member of the Brotherhood of Steel who goes rogue, and Walton Goggins as the Ghoul, a deformed bounty hunter who was revealed to be Vault-Tec executive Cooper Howard before the nuclear outbreak. In the Season 1 finale, Lucy and her brother Norm (Moises Arias) learn that their father was responsible for one of the nuclear bombs going off, the Ghoul finds out that his pre-war family may still be alive and Maximus is promoted to a knight. Lucy and the Ghoul head out to find Vault-Tec's leaders to get some answers, and Hank runs off to New Vegas, the fan-favorite, Las Vegas-inspired setting for one of the 'Fallout' games. 'Fallout' received Emmy nominations for outstanding drama, lead actor in a drama for Goggins and writing by Geneva Robertson-Dworet and Graham Wagner. The show is produced by Kilter Films, with executive producers Jonathan Nolan and Lisa Joy. Robertson-Dworet and Wagner also serve as executive producers, creators and showrunners. read more New Tourism Route To Launch in Old Cairo Ahmed El Sakka-Led Play 'Sayidati Al Jamila' to Be Staged in KSA on Dec. 6 Mandy Moore Joins Season 2 of "Dr. Death" Anthology Series Don't Miss These Movies at 44th Cairo Int'l Film Festival Today Amr Diab to Headline KSA's MDLBEAST Soundstorm 2022 Festival Arts & Culture Mai Omar Stuns in Latest Instagram Photos Arts & Culture "The Flash" to End with Season 9 Arts & Culture Ministry of Culture Organizes four day Children's Film Festival Arts & Culture Canadian PM wishes Muslims Eid-al-Adha News Egypt confirms denial of airspace access to US B-52 bombers Lifestyle Pistachio and Raspberry Cheesecake Domes Recipe News Ayat Khaddoura's Final Video Captures Bombardment of Beit Lahia News Australia Fines Telegram $600,000 Over Terrorism, Child Abuse Content Arts & Culture Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban's $4.7M LA Home Burglarized Sports Former Al Zamalek Player Ibrahim Shika Passes away after Long Battle with Cancer Sports Neymar Announced for Brazil's Preliminary List for 2026 FIFA World Cup Qualifiers News Prime Minister Moustafa Madbouly Inaugurates Two Indian Companies Arts & Culture New Archaeological Discovery from 26th Dynasty Uncovered in Karnak Temple Business Fear & Greed Index Plummets to Lowest Level Ever Recorded amid Global Trade War
