Pittsburgh Pirates' rising star Paul Skenes has been nothing short of electric on the mound this season, yet his efforts haven't translated into consistent wins. On Sunday, the 23-year-old right-hander turned in another gem, pitching into the eighth inning for the third time in his last five outings.
He gave up just one unearned run in the third but was again handed a no-decision.

Despite boasting a stunning 1.52 ERA over 53.1 innings in recent appearances, Skenes has come away with only one win in his last eight starts. Overall, he's 4-6 across 14 games this season, but his remarkable 1.88 ERA and minuscule 0.84 WHIP clearly underscore his dominance.
Off the field, Skenes seems to have found a sense of balance thanks to his girlfriend, Olivia Dunne.
The social media sensation has been offering fans a closer look at their downtime together. Her recent Instagram post titled 'east coast summer' delighted followers with a carousel of serene snapshots—including a candid of Skenes golfing, a quiet escape from the pitching pressure.
Dunne, who rose to fame as an LSU gymnast, has effortlessly transitioned into a model and influencer. Just days ago, she captured the spotlight at the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Fashion Show.

Her recent Instagram story painted a personal yet star-studded picture: cherries and sunbathing with her dog Roux, beach walks with her sister Julz, and hanging out with influencer Alix Earle.
A Pirates hat, a stunning view of PNC Park, and a supportive presence at Skenes' games made it clear that Dunne is wholeheartedly cheering on her MLB beau.
From flipping on the runway to cheering in the stands, Dunne continues to prove she's more than just a pretty face. While Skenes dominates on the mound, she's winning hearts both online and in real life—one post, one cheer, and one bold runway split at a time.

I'm full of filmy — background score, slow-mo dreams, mascara running and all. He's logical, calm, and 'let's carry a first-aid kit just in case.' I manifest drama. He manages it. And somehow, we just… Fit. So when he asked, the heroine in me took over — arms in the air, tears in my eyes, and zero network in my brain. Because of real love? It may not always be perfect. But, It. Is. Magical.' Who is Milind Chandwani, Avika's finance? Milind Chandwani was an engineer, and is now a philanthropist.

Milind is so good that I have married him in my mind. I feel like marrying him today, but Milind says that there is a lot of difference between my age and his. So I should take my time accordingly. Only after this should I think about marriage.' About the actress, Avika Gaur Avika Gaur has made a name for herself in the TV industry.

Aamir Khan was once slated to star in this Shah Rukh Khan blockbuster. 31 years later, actor says, ‘I didn't say no…'
The 1993 psychological thriller Darr, directed by the legendary Yash Chopra , was a landmark film that shaped the trajectory of Shah Rukh Khan 's stardom. In the film, Shah Rukh portrayed a deeply disturbed stalker fixated on a woman named Kiran, portrayed by Juhi Chawla. His character, Rahul, was dangerously obsessed, willing to harm anyone who stood between him and the woman he desired. Sunny Deol played the conventional protagonist—a protective fiancé fighting for his love. However, before Shah Rukh was cast as the obsessive antagonist, the role had initially been offered to Aamir Khan . During a recent conversation with Zoom, Aamir revealed that, contrary to popular belief, he hadn't rejected Darr. Instead, he was dismissed from the project. He explained that he had agreed to do the film, but his insistence on a joint script narration with both lead actors led to his removal. Aamir revealed he firmly believes that when a film features more than one central character, all key actors should be present for a collaborative narration. This approach, according to him, ensures mutual understanding and cohesive teamwork. However, Yash Chopra wasn't willing to accommodate that request, leading to Aamir being let go from the film. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Villas For Sale in Dubai Might Surprise You Villas In Dubai | Search Ads Get Rates Undo Aamir further cited his experience with Andaz Apna Apna to support his stance. While working on that film alongside Salman Khan, Aamir insisted that both of them attend the story session together. Salman reportedly skipped the meeting multiple times, but Aamir stood his ground, refusing to proceed until both actors were present. Eventually, the narration took place jointly, adhering to Aamir's condition. After Darr was released, the film garnered significant success and became the third highest-grossing film of the year. Shah Rukh Khan's chilling portrayal of Rahul won critical acclaim and immense popularity, catapulting him into a league of unconventional anti-heroes. However, behind the film's commercial triumph, there was brewing tension on set. Sunny Deol was dissatisfied with how his character was portrayed, feeling that the narrative and screen space favored Shah Rukh's role over his own. This perceived imbalance led to long-standing friction between Sunny and Shah Rukh. Their rift lasted for years, marked by cold shoulders and avoidance in public appearances. However, the bitterness was finally put to rest in 2023 when Shah Rukh attended the success celebration of Gadar 2, a significant gesture that brought closure to their decades-old feud. Darr remains memorable not just for its gripping storyline and performances but also for the behind-the-scenes drama that shaped its casting and legacy.

David Walliams faces backlash for offensive Nazi salute on BBC's Would I Lie To You?
David Walliams reportedly made two Nazi salutes during the recording of the BBC comedy panel show Would I Lie To You? this week, leading to the segment being cut and drawing condemnation from the BBC as well as the show's production company. The incident occurred during a segment featuring Helen George, who was sharing a story about injuring her wrist while waving. Walliams joined in with increasingly exaggerated waves that culminated in the offensive gesture. The Nazi salute incident took place at Pinewood Studios on Tuesday (June 10) during the recording of the Christmas special, was witnessed by audience members. The BBC and Banijay UK, the production company, have issued an apology while condemning Walliams. The BBC described David Walliams's actions as "unacceptable" and added the segment would not be on air. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Many Are Watching Tariffs - Few Are Watching What Nvidia Just Launched Seeking Alpha Read Now Undo The offensive Nazi salute The comedian and children's author made the gestures during a segment in which a fellow panellist discussed a story about injuring their wrist while waving. Walliams reportedly joined in with increasingly vigorous waves, which culminated in him holding out his arm in a Nazi salute. The former Britain's Got Talent judge was on the panel for the BBC One show's Christmas special, which was recorded at Pinewood Studios on Tuesday. Live Events Journalist Sebastian Topan, who was in the audience, contacted the BBC to describe what happened. One part of the show saw Call The Midwife actress Helen George, who took part in Strictly Come Dancing in 2015, being given a prompt to suggest she had sprained her wrist "from waving too much during the Strictly tour". She then had to try to convince the opposing team that her anecdote was true. After demonstrating the wave, which purportedly left her with an injury, she was told that it was "too little" and was encouraged to make a bigger gesture. "Some other panellist was talking when David Walliams started doing the Nazi salute," Topan told the BBC. "I was shocked at what I had seen." According to Topan, there were "patches of quietened gasps and awkward half-laughs and broken clapping" in the audience. The show's host, Gavin & Stacey star Rob Brydon, then told Walliams the show would be broadcast before the 9pm watershed, effectively suggesting his behaviour was not suitable for a family TV audience. As the discussion about George's experience continued, Walliams made the gesture again, adding a sexual gesture with his other hand. The exchange reportedly landed awkwardly in the studio. "The atmosphere was uncomfortable and weird," Topan said. "I think Rob Brydon wanted to get past it as quickly as he could. David Walliams' team-mates looked unsure what to do and were not laughing... It was like an elephant in the room after that as the incident was early on in the recording and so the remainder of the show felt weird." Another audience member posted on X after the recording: "I didn't have David Walliams doing a Nazi salute at the Would I Lie To You? Christmas taping on my 2025 bingo card." Banijay UK, which owns the show's production company Zeppotron, issued a statement regarding the incident. "Any attempt at humour regarding this deeply offensive gesture, whether broadcast or not, is completely unacceptable in any context." "It was immediately acknowledged during the recording that this segment would not be broadcast under any circumstances and we apologise to those who were at the recording for any offence caused.'
