Time of India8 hours ago

Brad Pitt recently talked about his latest look at the New York City premiere of his new movie 'F1' and shared why he has brought back his iconic 2004 buzz cut, reported People
"I just finished a job," Pitt teases.
"It's for a character we did."
Pitt completed his shaved head look on the red carpet with a navy blue double-breasted suit, a crisp white shirt and a satin pocket square.
He was first spotted rocking the dramatic cut while driving around Los Angeles last month.
Pitt was joined at the premiere by his girlfriend Ines de Ramon, and the couple made a rare appearance on the red carpet, reported People.
De Ramon was seen in a sheer halter top and a long, feathered skirt.
She accessorised the look with a white Chanel purse.
Earlier, Pitt opened up about his favourite memories from filming the movie, in which he plays a Formula 1 driver called Sonny Hayes who is getting back in the driver's seat after nearly 30 years, reported People.
"I got a lot," said Pitt, adding, "I got a lot, but every time I got in the car, these tracks are just like hallowed ground. Silverstone. The spa in Belgium was the most memorable.
Abu Dhabi. We really got spoiled."
The star also shared what it was like having to switch from driving at super high speeds in the movie to driving in everyday life, reported People.

"There's a strange calm in the car when you're hitting everything," he says. "You're hitting your breaking points and hitting your turning points. It's such a piece. I can't even describe it. Yeah, it's incredible."
According to an official synopsis, Pitt's character Hayes was Formula 1's "most promising phenom of the 1990s until an accident on the track nearly ended his career."
"Thirty years later, he's a nomadic racer-for-hire when he's approached by his former teammate Ruben Cervantes (
Javier Bardem
), owner of a struggling Formula 1 team that is on the verge of collapse. Ruben convinces Sonny to come back to Formula for one last shot at saving the team and being the best in the world," the synopsis continues. "But as the engines roar, Sonny's past catches up with him and he finds that in Formula 1, your teammate is your fiercest competition and the road to redemption is not something you can travel alone," reported People.
The film also stars Damson Idris, Kerry Condon, Tobias Menzies, Sarah Niles and Samson Kayo, while Lewis Hamilton is one of the producers.
'F1' is in theatres on June 27.

'I was torn': Tom Brady's ex-wife Gisele Bündchen sparked national outrage after criticizing Brazil's 2014 FIFA World Cup

Gisele Bündchen navigated a complex role as Brazil hosted major global events (Getty Images) When Brazil played host to the 2014 FIFA World Cup and later the 2016 Rio Olympics, one of the most iconic faces of the country, supermodel Gisele Bündchen, found herself caught between national pride and personal values. As the spotlight turned toward Brazil, with the world watching, Gisele made headlines not just for her dazzling runway performance but also for her outspoken concerns about the country's priorities. Gisele Bündchen had strong feelings about Brazil hosting the World Cup In her memoir Lessons: My Path to a Meaningful Life, Bündchen opened up about the internal conflict she faced when invited to participate in the 2014 FIFA World Cup opening ceremony. Despite her excitement about representing her homeland, she revealed serious reservations about the allocation of resources. 'When I was asked to take part in the opening ceremonies of the 2014 FIFA World Cup, I was torn,' Bündchen wrote. 'Like a lot of Brazilians, I believed Brazil could have used the money being spent on stadiums and running tracks for other, more urgently needed things, like improving hospitals, schools, and the infrastructure.' Gisele Bündchen´s catwalk at the Rio 2016 Olympics Opening Ceremony Her words resonated with millions of Brazilians who had protested the country's spending on the global event while basic needs remained unmet. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Concentrated Siberian Ginseng Extract 2oz Superior Ginseng Undo She wasn't just another celebrity waving a flag—she used her platform to highlight the tension between celebration and necessity. Walking the longest runway of her life under global scrutiny Despite her concerns, Gisele ultimately chose to participate in the Rio Olympics opening ceremony, an event she called 'a very special moment for my country.' Speaking to People, she admitted: 'This is for sure the longest runway I have ever walked in my life and by far with the most amount of people watching, so it is a little nerve-wracking I must say.' Her graceful walk during the ceremony became a symbol of Brazilian pride, but it didn't shield her from criticism. Some viewers dismissed her involvement as excessive or unnecessary, reflecting the larger frustrations around the event's spending. Tom Brady, her then husband, stood by her side amid the backlash. Sharing his admiration in a heartfelt message, he wrote: 'Gisele, words can't describe how proud I was to watch you represent your country. I love you.' Brady even translated the note to Portuguese to reach her fans back home.

Justin Beiber posts weepy picture of Orlando Bloom On June 8, Smith was driving a Chevrolet pickup truck when he hit Dorothy Dobbins as she was crossing the roadway inside a marked crosswalk, per a release shared by the Metropolitan Nashville Police Department, reported People. After the incident, Dobbins was taken to the Vanderbilt University Medical Center, where she later died, as per the outlet.

At the time, Smith's attorney shared that he was "involved in a car accident that tragically claimed a life."

Actress Rebel Wilson opened up about an on-set accident while shooting for 'Bride Hard', reported People. While talking about her new action comedy, the 45-year-old actress said she loved the action scenes. In the film, she plays a secret agent. "The action, I liked doing the action. I thought it was fun. I'd never really done much action before, so I really liked it," she said, reported People. "But on the very last day, the last night of shooting, we had a terrible accident at 3:00 a.m. where a gun accidentally got whacked across my face in a fight," she recalled, adding, "It wasn't supposed to happen, and my nose got cut open, was rushed by ambulance to the hospital." "They had to call in a plastic surgeon. He came in at about 6:30 a.m. So there's a few hours where I'm just like, 'Is my face ever going to be okay?'" she said. "But luckily, they got a really good plastic surgeon from Savannah, Georgia, to come fix it. They stitched up the whole nose there." Wilson also shared photos of her nose injury on social media.
