Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt's daughter sparks engagement buzz with Los Angeles-based actor, flashes diamond ring on date night
Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie's oldest daughter, Zahara, seems to have come a step closer to wedding bells. The 20-year-old sparked engagement rumours during her recent outing with her boyfriend, wearing what looked like a big diamond on her wedding ring finger in photos obtained by Page Six. She was photographed while exiting Craig's in Hollywood, Calif., Monday night. In 2005, Jolie adopted Zahara, who was born in Hawassa, Ethiopia, and was only seven months old at the time. Jolie and Brad had just started dating, and when the Maleficent star returned to make the adoption official, Pitt joined her, eventually giving the newborn his own last name.

Zahara, who attends Atlanta's Spelman College and proudly joined Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, often hits the red carpet with Jolie while also stepping into the actor's philanthropic work. The college goer is currently on her summer vacation and was spotted hopping into a car with a man identified as Elijah Cooper. Zahara kept it low-key, wearing a hat to shield her face, a black tank top, a white cropped cardigan, black slacks, and plain sandals. Her date, matching her vibe in a coordinated outfit, is believed to be a Los Angeles-based model, actor, and founder of Tints streetwear, while also attending Morehouse in Atlanta. The two exchanged flirty smiles, looking giddy as they drove off.

Zahara was the first to drop Brad Pitt's infamous last name in 2023, before Shiloh, Maddox, and others joined. While marking her new chapter as a member of the AKAs, the then 19-year-old left her dad's name behind and introduced herself: 'My name is Zahara Marley Jolie,' she added. 'Coming all the way from the Golden State, in the city that is full of angels, Los Angeles, California. … I am this line's number seven.' Brad and Jolie share six kids together, including Maddox, 23, Pax, 21, Shiloh, 19, and 16-year-old twins Knox and Vivienne. The couple dated for over a decade before tying the knot in 2014 and then shortly splitting in 2016.

The two were left embroiled in a nasty custody battle that came down to Jolie accusing Pitt of assault on a private jet and abusing her in front of the kids. The F1 star has repeatedly denied the accusations, with the latest development surfacing in December 2024, that settled their divorce after 8 long years. Pitt's biological kids, Shiloh and Vivienne's decision to follow suit reportedly left him devastated. At the time, a source close to the actor said, 'He's never felt more joy than when she was born. He always wanted a daughter,' the source told People. 'The reminders that he's lost his children are, of course, not easy for Brad. He loves his children and misses them. It's very sad.'
Apart from her studies, Zahara has been actively helping Angelina Jolie in her humanitarian efforts. In 2023, the mother-daughter duo travelled to Washington, D.C., for meetings with officials and lawmakers and pushed for the Justice for All Reauthorization Act of 2022. At the time, Zahara advocated to protect crime victims by 'creating a victims' right to evidence and agency reports, standard forensic science, calling for end to the rape kit backlog, and addressing racial disparities in wrongful convictions,' according to People.

Have you tried the burger and the pizza from Scuzi in Hyderabad
For a burger fanatic, a good one boils down to three essentials — a juicy patty, the right bun, and melting cheese. When Scuzi's burgers started popping up frequently on my Instagram feed, they immediately had my attention. All I could see was that perfect patty, pillowy bun, and a glorious cheese melt. Bingo. The pizzas looked equally tempting. Scuzi is a Hyderabad-based delivery kitchen that launched in March 2025. The menu reflects global culinary influences, shaped by the personal travels and food memories of its founders — Naga Chaitanya Akkineni, Varun Tripuraneni, Arjun, and Saniya Jaiswal. The idea for Scuzi was born over slices of pizza in Goa in 2023. It was the nuanced flavours at Como Agua, a restaurant in Assagao, that first caught Naga Chaitanya's attention. A pizza tasting session turned into several return visits, each one deepening his appreciation for the craft. Eventually, this culinary connection led to a partnership with Como's founders, Arjun and Saniya Jaiswal. Together with fellow co-founder Varun Tripuraneni they set out to bring that same flair and finesse to Hyderabad's delivery dining scene. Scuzi's menu is vibrant and playful. Alongside signature burgers like The Home Run, you will find indulgent options like Rigatoni Bianca Truffle Pasta, a Charred Broccoli and Hummus Bowl, the Pepperoni and Chowringhee Pizza, and decadent desserts such as Churros and Tiramisu. The naming game adds to the fun — pizzas and burgers come with cheeky titles like Hi Gorgeous, Party Boy, and The Bachelor. 'Our pizzas are Neapolitan-style,' says Naga Chaitanya, co-founder of Scuzi. 'We wanted to keep the ingredients true to their Italian roots, but also give them a playful twist to better connect with our audience. The idea was to make the menu feel approachable, while incorporating flavours familiar to the Indian palate.' The result is a line-up that is equal parts authentic and inventive, without taking itself too seriously. When I began planning my own Scuzi tasting, it quickly became clear that a single sitting would not cut it. I had three burgers in mind, then came the pizzas, the pastas, and eventually, a strategic plan to stagger it all over a couple of weeks. On Day One, I started with Maximus (a meaty burger), When in Doubt (a classic Margherita), and Mac & Cheese. The pizzas are a clear win — cheesy, saucy, and beautifully balanced by a soft, thin crust. A proper Neapolitan experience. The burger delivered on juiciness and flavour, too. But skip the Mac & Cheese unless you are within a 10-minute radius — it does not travel well. By the following week, I was ready for round two: Double Pepperoni pizza (an absolute steal if you are a pepperoni fan — they do not hold back on the toppings), Chilli Mushroom Fettuccine, and two more burgers — The Home Run and The Bachelor. And before you judge, this was shared between three hungry eaters. I also threw in the Lime and Habanero Hot Wings for good measure. No regrets. 'Our burgers have become the stars of the menu,' adds Chaitanya. 'It took months of trials — about 8 to 12 months — to get the balance right. We didn't want to mask the flavours with an overload of sauces or ingredients. Instead, we kept it minimal: great bread, great patty, just enough cheese. It's simple, but tuned to the local palate.' Scuzi also offers rice bowls, desserts, and some rather exciting vegetarian options. The Burrata Chaat and Butter-Poached Charred Cabbage Skewers in romesco sauce are standouts. And do not miss the Chilli Mushroom Fettuccine — it might just surprise you. I also tried the Rigatoni Bianco with Truffle Oil, and it was not easy to share. The rich truffle aroma lingers, coaxing you to polish off the bowl on your own. A dish that is hard to walk away from at a sharing table. As an Assamese, I could not resist ordering the Bhut Jolokia Dutch Crunch — a cold sandwich stuffed with spicy chicken and an assortment of 'things' in a Dutch Crunch roll. The heat did not faze me (so do not worry if your spice tolerance is average), but the real challenge was the mess. Keep tissues handy — not for the spice, but for the sheer sauciness. It is one for those who enjoy cold, saucy sandwiches, though I personally found it a bit much. For dessert, skip the menu and go straight to the tiramisu. It will send you into a happy food coma. The average order for two people ranges from ₹1000 to ₹1200 (depending on how many dishes you choose to eat).

Are Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom breaking up? Rumours hint at seething tension between the couple—here's what we know
Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom are parting their ways? The pop star and actor have long been one of Hollywood's most high-profile couples, who are now making headlines. Several reports and rumours on social media suggest that there has been seething trouble in the singer's relationship with her fiancé, Orlando Bloom. Well, back in 2016, the duo went public with their romance, with a perfectly timed engagement after dating each other for 3 long years on Valentine's Day, 2019. Following this, the next year in August, Perry gave birth to their daughter Daisy Dove Bloom, who is 4 years old now. However, from then till now, many things have changed. According to a US Weekly source-based report, the couple never set a date for their wedding or got around to planning anything. But are Katty and Orlando parting their ways? According to Page Six, sources have revealed that there is a rumour of Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom's relationship being on the rocks. One source even quoted, 'It's over," while another said, 'They are waiting 'til her tour is over before they split.' The couple who first met in 2016 at a Golden Globes after-party may have ended their relationship, as per rumours. On the other hand, an exclusive source told Entertainment Tonight that things between Katy and Orlando haven't been great for a few months. "Orlando is coming to a breaking point with the tension in their relationship." Possible reasons behind the rumoured breakup The same report from Entertainment Tonight noted that other factors have also had their fair share in weighing in on the pressure. While Katy has been upset over the backlash she faced from her recent space trip and her album sales, Orlando has been trying to be supportive because "he knows how hard things can be when balancing everything, especially when kids are involved." But Katy's demeanour has become increasingly frustrating for him," the source added. THE LIFETIMES TOURON SALE NOWhttps:// Amid all the rumours and speculations, friends of Katy and Orlando have dropped a bombshell about the couple's split. According to their friends, the 40-year-old singer and 48-year-old actor are reportedly not going through a rough patch for the first time. However, a close source has told US Weekly, "It's true they're spending time apart. Their friends don't know if they are permanently split." Fans react to Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom's breakup rumours As soon as the breakup rumours about Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom surfaced on social media, it quickly grabbed eyeballs, and fans shared their own reactions to it. One said on Reddit, "This is gonna ruin the tour." While another said, "Honestly I did wonder if all this negative attention she's gotten in the last year was going to strain their relationship. Orlando seems very lowkey and about vibes and Katy is so out there" "Since her comeback I've been wondering about their relationship. They've been engaged for years with no marriage date, and I rarely ever see them in public together. KP seems to love attention and OB is quiet and just goes about hi day. I didn't expect them to last as it seems they were on again and off again, and it seems like only stayed together because she got pregnant."

He made mistakes, had to face consequences: Gangster Goldy Brar on Moosewala's murder
Chandigarh, Canada-based gangster Goldy Brar has openly admitted to orchestrating the murder of Sidhu Moosewala, claiming that the Punjabi singer "made some mistakes which could not be forgiven" and "he had to face the consequences". Brar, a close aide of jailed gangster Lawrence Bishnoi, made the confession in a BBC World Service documentary. The British broadcaster released the two-part documentary, 'The Killing Call', on YouTube on Wednesday, also the birth anniversary of Moosewala. Singer Shubhdeep Singh Sidhu, who was popularly known as Sidhu Moosewala, was shot dead in Punjab's Mansa district on May 29, 2022. He was killed when he, along with his friend and cousin, was travelling in a jeep to Jawahar Ke village in Mansa. Six shooters waylaid Moosewala's SUV and sprayed it with bullets. After the killing, Brar claimed responsibility for the murder. In the documentary, Brar told BBC that Moosewala's relationship with Bishnoi went back several years and the singer used to send "good morning" and "good night" messages to the gangster. However, the relationship turned sour after Moosewala promoted a kabaddi tournament that was organised by Bishnoi's rivals. "In his arrogance, he made some mistakes that could not be forgiven," Brar said. In the documentary, Brar also spoke about the killing of Youth Akali Dal leader Vicky Middukhera, who was murdered in August 2021 in Mohali. "Everybody knew his . Police also knew it. Even some journalists who were investigating Vicky's case knew. "Sidhu was using his political power, his money and resources to help our rivals, those who killed our brother. We wanted to punish him for that. He should have been booked and sent to jail. But no one was hearing our plea and then we took it upon ourselves," Brar said. "We had no option but to kill him. He had to face the consequences of his actions. It was either him or us. As simple as that," the gangster said in the documentary. Asked why they did not go through the judicial system in India instead of taking law into their hands, Brar said, "Law and justice, there is no such thing. Only the powerful people can get justice, not ordinary people. I did what I had to do for my brother. I have no remorse whatsoever and I take pride in it." Asked why they did not go after the perpetrators of Middukhera's murder, he said, "It is not that we have reached a compromise or forgiven them. They have all apologised and begged for their lives. But we have not forgiven anyone and we will never forgive." Police had earlier said that Brar executed the plan to murder Moosewala to avenge the killing of Middukhera. Satinderjeet Singh alias Goldy Brar, a native of Sri Muktsar Sahib in Punjab, went to Canada on student visa in 2017. He is an active member of the Lawrence Bishnoi gang. Last year, Brar was designated as a terrorist by the government under the anti-terror law for his involvement in smuggling of high-grade arms, ammunition and explosives through drones from across the border for carrying out killings in India. Brar has also been associated with the banned terrorist group Babbar Khalsa International. The BBC documentary focuses on Moosewala's early life, his rise to fame in the music world and the circumstances of his killing. It also features interviews of the singer's friends, a Punjab Police officer and a few journalists. On Moosewala's birth anniversary on Wednesday, his family released three of his tracks "Take Notes", "0008" and "Neal". While "Take Notes" has registered 8.2 million views so far, "0008" has 6.4 million views and 'Neal' has 6.3 million.
