According to a police report, the stolen items belonged to Beyonce's choreographer, Christopher Grant, 37, and a dancer. Grant discovered the car's rear window smashed and luggage missing, including multiple jump drives containing watermarked and unreleased music, show footage, and set lists. An Apple MacBook, headphones, and luxury clothing were also taken.
Police traced the MacBook and headphones to a location but did not recover the items. Authorities issued an arrest warrant for an unnamed suspect, who remains at large.
The 'Cowboy Carter' tour, launched in April, follows Beyonce's historic Grammy win for Album of the Year in 2024. The country-themed album highlights Black artists' contributions to the genre, challenging industry norms.
Beyonce wrapped up her Atlanta performances on Monday, with two final shows scheduled in Las Vegas later this month. - AFP

3-Michelin-star Paris restaurant Arpege switches to plant-based dishes
For the first time in a three-star restaurant in France, Alain Passard is now serving exclusively plant-based cuisine, a sign of a still discreet but real turning point in haute gastronomy. – Photo by BERTRAND GUAY/ AFP French chef Alain Passard, known for his mastery of roasting techniques, has decided to drop almost all animal products from the menu at his three-Michelin-star restaurant, Arpege. The decision follows his earlier move to eliminate red meat from Arpege's dishes in the early 2000s. Passard's updated menu excludes meat, fish, and dairy, although honey sourced from the restaurant's own beehives will remain an exception. Passard said he was motivated by his passion for nature, adding that using seasonal vegetables would also reduce the restaurant's environmental impact. A cook prepares exclusively plant-based dishes in the kitchen of Arpege, the three-Michelin-starred restaurant of French chef Alain Passard, in Paris, France, July 23, 2025. REUTERS/Gonzalo Fuentes Passard, 68, rose to fame for his roasted dishes, including "poulet au foin", or chicken cooked in hay, but has since become a leader in Paris's growing vegetable-based dining scene. "Everything I was able to do with the animal will remain a wonderful memory," Passard told Reuters. "Today, I'm moving more towards a cuisine of emotion, a cuisine that I could describe as artistic. It's closer to painting and sewing... Today I'm a different chef." French chef Alain Passard poses in his restaurant 'L'Arpege' in Paris during a photo session. – Photo by BERTRAND GUAY/ AFP) Arpege is the first restaurant with three Michelin stars in France to move to plant-based food, joining the ranks of Eleven Madison Park in New York, which made a similar transition under chef Daniel Humm. On the menu is a "mosaic" of tomatoes, flamed aubergine with melon confit, and a dish made up of carrot, onion, shallot and cabbage. The priciest set menu costs 420 euros (US$493) and lunch costs 260 euros. Some countries have seen consumers turn away from meat in recent years. At the Paris Olympics last year, organisers set out to cut the amount of meat served to athletes and spectators. – Reuters

Godzilla fans celebrate 70th anniversary at Comic-Con 2025
SAN DIEGO: Godzilla enthusiasts from around the world gathered at Comic-Con to celebrate the iconic monster's 70th anniversary. The event, hosted by Japanese studio Toho, featured panel discussions, autograph sessions, and fan interactions, highlighting the enduring legacy of the 'king of monsters.' Godzilla first appeared on screen in 1954, directed by Ishiro Honda, as a symbol of nuclear devastation. Angela Hill, a teacher from Arizona, shared her admiration, saying, 'I am a very big fan of Godzilla. He holds the grief of a nation,' referencing the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Comic-Con, a major pop culture festival, saw 130,000 attendees, many dressed as their favourite characters. A life-sized Godzilla display became a popular photo spot, while a panel featuring Shinji Higuchi, co-director of 'Shin Godzilla,' discussed the monster's cinematic evolution. Ed Godziszewski and Steve Ryfle, authors of 'Godzilla: The First 70 Years,' signed copies of their book, which sold out quickly. Ryfle noted, 'This is the longest-running film franchise focused on a single character. It's been around longer than James Bond.' He emphasised Godzilla's adaptability, from a terrifying force to a heroic figure, while staying true to its anti-war roots. Michelle Pena, a longtime fan, remarked, 'He's not lovable, but you find yourself rooting for him.' The franchise spans nearly 40 films, alongside animated series and graphic novels, proving its lasting appeal. - AFP
