Suki Waterhouse talked about hospitalisation for hernia after wearing tight pants six months earlier
"'Suki you never tweet anymore,'" she wrote. "Have you ever considered I wore pants so tight 6 months ago it caused a hernia & I've been too scared to tell you?"
Waterhouse also posted a photo from what appeared to be a hospital bed and an image from her tour supporting her Memoir of a Sparklemuffin album.
Waterhouse is due to return to the stage on August 7 in Aspen, Colorado, as she continues her tour. News of her hospitalisation comes over a year after she welcomed her first child with her fiancé Robert Pattinson.
Speaking to E! News in September, Waterhouse said, "I'm just absolutely obsessed with her," adding that their daughter was "turning over, sitting up, trying to crawl, doing all the things."
Pattinson also spoke to Vogue in January about becoming a parent, saying he realised the scent of babies was unique. "I thought they were just smelling the baby powder," he said. "But then I had a baby, and I was like: 'My baby smells incredible.'"

Elon Musk teases AI-powered Vine reviving buzz about defunct short-form video platform
Elon Musk says he's bringing back Vine, his time, 'in AI form.' The brief eight-word post on X set off waves of speculation about what that could mean for the long-defunct six-second video app. Originally launched in 2013 and shut down in 2017, Vine was once a viral hit before losing ground to competitors like Instagram and Snapchat. Musk's statement came without further detail, leaving followers to guess whether an AI-enhanced Vine could mean algorithmically generated content, automated editing tools, or synthetic creators. What's clear is that interest in the platform hasn't faded. His post quickly generated thousands of interactions and even affected the price of Vine-themed memecoins. This isn't the first time Musk has raised hopes for a Vine revival. In 2022, shortly after acquiring Twitter (now X), he ran a poll asking users if they wanted the app back, most responded with a resounding yes. Axios later reported that his team was actively exploring a reboot. The original Vine was acquired by Twitter in 2012 before being shut down in early 2017 during a platform restructure. Vine's co-founder Rus Yusupov reflected in 2022, 'We didn't build the right features in time' and 'didn't help creators monetise.' Still, no official timeline or product details have been confirmed by X. Whether this is a full relaunch or another idea from Musk that may or may not materialise remains to be seen.

Sarwat won't be a damsel in distress
Known for her measured choices and commanding screen presence, Sarwat Gilani has consistently stood out for the quality of projects she chooses to associate with. Whether it's television dramas like Mata-e-Jaan Hai Tu and Dil-e-Muztar, or more recent and groundbreaking ventures like Churails and Joyland, Gilani's body of work reflects both intention and insight. She brings not only talent but also a discerning understanding of how stories shape the cultural fabric around us. Recently Gilani appeared on the Talha Ahad Podcast in an episode titled What's Really Wrong With Pakistan's Entertainment Industry? where she addressed chronic industry issues. With a degree in graphic design from the Indus Valley School of Art and Architecture, Gilani's creative journey extends beyond acting. Reflecting on her early career, she shared "I graduated from Indus Valley School of Art and Architecture and I worked as a designer for six months after graduation. I was pretty miserable there because I wasn't allowed to think outside the box, I had to only stick to what they wanted us to make." Gilani later left the field and tried her hand in acting in a television commercial. "I felt free during it. It was a nice experience and I just held onto it after that." Choosing her projects Gilani's screen presence since her first TV drama has spanned about seventeen years, although she has been out of business for the past seven years. Reflecting on this, she said, "I feel for the girls when I read a story. I always want to pick narratives that feature female empowerment, break gender stereotypes and show you how to fight for what's rightfully yours." She added, "The kind of dramas that were being created in Pakistan while I worked were very regressive. I was sick of looking at the damsel in distress on screen." The actor chose to dodge plenty of opportunities in search of quality of scripts, "I always need to strongly connect with the script and tell newer and more uplifting stories. Because of this I started rejecting roles that came my way and eventually people stopped offering." Upon her departure from acting, Gilani clarified that she was content with the direction her life took, "I was okay with not getting offers anymore. I moved on from acting and got involved in activism and philanthropy instead. I became part of a non-profit that ran Olympics for special children every year and it was very fulfilling. I have always wanted to stay grounded this way and acting was only a business at that point." Gilani recalled what it was like to choose scripts that she enjoyed "With luck if I even received a script like Churails, it would get heavily censored and the team would need to hide face. It was either this fight for our safety and free will or playing someone I didn't relate to. Eventually I left acting altogether. They could find ten other lead actresses that could play the repressed house wife. I didn't feel like I was needed anymore." Standing up for her work Churails released as a web series in 2020 under the Indian platform Zee. Knowing the Pakistani censor board will never air it, she recalled, "We already knew it would get us in trouble and we didn't care. The story of female vigilantes drinking alcohol and holding guns in Karachi had never been told before. Of course I wanted to be a part of it." This wasn't the only time Gilani had partaken in a risky project, "When Joyland was released in 2022, we were again well aware that it might create problems. It's like, Churails prepared us for what it feels like to get banned in Pakistan." she joked. "Joyland told the story of gender fluidity, desire and acceptance. It was new and well made. Due to this, it was screened at the Cannes Film Festival. Not only was it screened, it also won awards. That's a huge deal!" Commenting on industry support over her exploratory projects, Gilani shared, "There is a lot of politics in our industry for sure. You follow a trend and become part of a clique to get jobs. Due to this, projects like Joyland and Churails didn't receive a single praise from within the industry. Which is quite sad because it was so critically acclaimed worldwide." According to her, "I've learned that no one in industry really stands with you while you are going through something difficult. They don't want to ruin their own image. Joyland and Churails getting banned in Pakistan was tough for me and it made me realize that I cannot rely on anyone." She didn't shy away from calling out fellow actors either, "It's kind of hypocritical. The actresses that call themselves feminists and claim to support Aurat March will not hesitate while choosing a regressive and backwards script. If you are truly a feminist, you wouldn't be okay with playing such a demeaning role. Their activism is very performative." Her liberal arts background has rendered her to understand systemic issues in the industry, "Even while working in advertising, it had the same problem. If you want to sell soap, put a woman there, if you want to sell milk, make a woman stand next to it. It's exhausting and we have more to offer."

E! News canceled after 32 years as network shifts focus to digital platforms
After more than three decades on air, E! News has been canceled once again. The iconic entertainment newscast will end its run on September 25, 2025, as the E! network shifts its focus toward digital and social media platforms. The cancellation comes three years after E! News was revived following a two-year hiatus. Originally a daytime show, the program returned in 2022 as a late-night broadcast, airing at 11 p.m. The decision to cancel the show reportedly comes from E! executives who believe the late-night format no longer aligns with modern audience demands for real-time digital content. A source from the network cited the brand's strong digital presence—with 87 million followers across platforms—as a key factor in the pivot. The E! network is currently transitioning as it spins off from NBCUniversal and merges into a new publicly traded company called Versant, formerly known as SpinCo. Employees of E! News were informed of the cancellation on Thursday. Around 20 staff members were affected, though some correspondents may transition to roles within Versant in yet-unknown capacities. Despite the cancellation, E! will continue to produce original series such as Botched Presents: Plastic Surgery Rewind and Honestly Cavallari: The Headline Tour. The network also plans to maintain a red carpet presence with Live From E! and will air the Critics Choice Awards on January 4. The end of E! News marks a significant shift in celebrity news broadcasting, as legacy programs give way to fast-paced digital formats.
