Francis Ford Coppola Hospitalized, Undergoes Surgery
Yara Sameh Francis Ford Coppola has been hospitalized in Rome on Tuesday. The legendary filmmaker went in for a scheduled procedure with Dr. Andrea Natale, a renowned heart doctor who has treated Coppola for more than 30 years. A well-placed source said he is said to be resting nicely now, according to. Amid the flurry of reports about his health, Coppola took to Instagram on Tuesday evening to offer an update and confirm the procedure with Natale. 'Da Dada (what my kids call me) is fine, taking an opportunity while in Rome to do the update of my 30-year-old afib procedure with its inventor, a great Italian doctor — Dr. Andrea Natale!' posted Coppola to his nearly 500,000 followers. 'I am well!'. According to the American Heart Association, an 'afib' procedure refers to atrial fibrillation, a treatment to help reset the heart's rhythm using a small electrical shock or medication. There are surgical or nonsurgical options depending on the nature of the issue. Coppola had just wrapped up a six city U.S. tour in support of his film Megalopolis in partnership with Live Nation. His final show, which included a screening of the self-financed pic and a Q&A, took place at San Francisco's Palace of Fine Arts on Friday night. 'I'm 85,' he told the audience, per SF Gate, referencing his age though he is now 86. 'I lost my wife [Eleanor Coppola] a year ago, around this time. But my attitude for death is that I always lived my life so that when I was at the moment approaching death, I wouldn't say, 'Oh, I wish I had done this and I wish I had done that.' Instead, I say to myself, 'I got to do this.'' It's unclear at what point over the weekend he flew back to Italy, where he had spent time earlier this summer. He told local media that he spent time location scouting for a new project. 'I'm here in Calabria to see some locations for a new project that's very important to me,' he reportedly said. 'A new film that will focus on the beautiful things of Calabria.' Not much is known about the project but Coppola teased that it won't be a mafia-based project like his iconic Godfather trilogy. 'Calabria is a region very famous for its mafia, but that doesn't interest me. My film instead will focus solely on the beautiful things about this region.' 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 Israeli-Linked Hadassah Clinic in Moscow Treats Wounded Iranian IRGC Fighters Arts & Culture "Jurassic World Rebirth" Gets Streaming Date News China Launches Largest Ever Aircraft Carrier News Ayat Khaddoura's Final Video Captures Bombardment of Beit Lahia Business Egyptian Pound Undervalued by 30%, Says Goldman Sachs Videos & Features Tragedy Overshadows MC Alger Championship Celebration: One Fan Dead, 11 Injured After Stadium Fall Lifestyle Get to Know 2025 Eid Al Adha Prayer Times in Egypt Arts & Culture South Korean Actress Kang Seo-ha Dies at 31 after Cancer Battle Arts & Culture Lebanese Media: Fayrouz Collapses after Death of Ziad Rahbani Sports Get to Know 2025 WWE Evolution Results

Kim Kardashian's Skims Is Opening Its First Store in Dubai
Kardashian knows how to enter a market. The only question is: will your bank account survive the fitting room? Aug 05, 2025 First it was the Fendi collab. Then it was Neymar Jr. in boxer briefs. Now, it's SKIMS at Mall of the Emirates. Kim Kardashian's billion-dollar shapewear label is making its brick-and-mortar Middle East debut, and the location says everything: foot traffic, luxury appetite, air-conditioned Instagram backdrops—Dubai understood the no formal announcement yet from the reality star (Kim loves a slow burn), but the storefront is already wrapped in SKIMS branding—like a soft launch in literal form. For fans of the brand's buttery bodysuits, cloud-soft cotton basics, and unapologetically neutral palette, this means one thing: IRL access, no international shipping move is backed by Al Tayer Group—the same force behind Saint Laurent, Harvey Nichols, and that entire Ounass checkout tab you swore you'd stop using. SKIMS is no longer just DTC gold; it's high-stakes retail. With the UAE's retail spend expected to hit $95 billion by the end of the year, and average luxury spend per shopper already among the highest globally, the region isn't just ready—it's ripe.
