The Substance Star Demi Moore Bags The Title Of World's Most Beautiful Person Of 2025
Demi Moore is on a roll, as she received the title of World's Most Beautiful Person Of 2025 from People Magazine recently. It is indeed refreshing to see the 62-year-old Hollywood icon be honoured with this recognition and break barriers surrounding the age-old myths about beauty standards being associated only with youth.
Yesterday, People Magazine made a grand announcement of their upcoming issue, featuring Demi Moore on the digital cover.
Demi further spoke about ageism, beauty, and acceptance in her interview with the magazine.
The actress said, "I have a greater appreciation for all that my body has been through that brought me to now. It doesn't mean that sometimes I look in the mirror and don't go, 'Oh God, I look old,' or 'Oh, my face is falling', I do. But I can accept that that's where I'm at today, and I know the difference today is that it doesn't define my value or who I am."
She further elaborated on the topic as she revealed that in her early days, she would punish herself as it was all about physical beauty. But today, it is more about one's overall health and mental well-being.
Demi added, "It's much more about longevity and quality of life. And I think I've evolved into greater gentility towards myself."
It has been an incredible year for Moore who bagged several awards at prestigious film festivals for her commendable performance in The Substance. She bagged the award for Outstanding Performance by a Female Actor in a Leading Role at SAG Awards 2025, Best Actress (Musical/Comedy) at the 82nd Golden Globes, and Best Actress at the Critics Choice Awards 2025. She also received an Oscar nomination this year for the film, in the Best Actress category.
She reacted to the wholesome experience, as she said, "It's been like a full pregnancy, really joyous moments, exhausting moments. But overall, it was an extraordinary time and experience."
Demi played the role of a troubled woman who was fighting a lot of inner turmoil and complex emotions within her in The Substance. The film got her appreciation from critics and masses alike.

Indian-origin Ketamine Queen linked to FRIENDS actor's death
Forty-two-year-old Jasveen Sangha, of Indian origin and dubbed the "Ketamine Queen", has earned her notorious moniker not just in press coverage but also in official court filings. Sangha, who pleaded guilty to supplying the ketamine that caused the death of Friends actor Matthew Perry, also admitted to selling the drug to multiple other clients, including celebrities and high-end patrons in Los Angeles' upscale North faces up to 45 years in prison, though a plea deal has dropped some charges, including three distribution counts and an unrelated methamphetamine Perry, known for playing Chandler Bing in the sitcom Friends, died in October 2023 from a drug overdose. He had been struggling with addiction for years and reportedly took a fatal dose of ketamine supplied by the "Ketamine Queen" Sangha, who had been famous in the locale as a "celebrity drug dealer".So, who is Sangha, the "Ketamine Queen", who is now at the centre of a high-profile case? Her guilty plea, celebrity clientele, and looming prison sentence form the core of the five big takeaways from the unfolding story.1. SANGHA HAS DUAL CITIZENSHIP; OPERATED FROM HER HOME, 'SANGHA STASH HOUSE'Sangha, who is of Punjabi origin, according to The Indian Express, holds dual citizenship of the United States and the United built her drug trade from her residence in North Hollywood, which she admitted to using as a narcotics distribution hub since at least to a federal indictment, the residence was dubbed the "Sangha Stash House".Prosecutors described her Los Angeles residence as a "drug-selling emporium", where agents seized dozens of ketamine vials during a raid, reported the Hollywood is a neighbourhood in Los Angeles' San Fernando Valley, and is known for its arts district, trendy eateries, and upscale residences.

She is also known for hosting glamorous Hollywood parties, where she often declared that "family is everything".Her luxury escapades did not stop after Matthew Perry's death in October 2023. Just two weeks later, she jetted off to Tokyo, sipping lychee martinis at the Mandarin Oriental, where suites fetch nearly $1,900 a night. In February 2024, four months after Perry's passing, she posted carefree selfies from Playa del Carmen, Mexico, basking in the sun at her beachfront residence and poolside also curated a polished image of wellness, boasting about IV drips after nights of partying and swearing by "sound healing", which she described as "uplifting and cleansing for the heart and soul".But beneath the veneer of opulence and self-care lay her darker role, which is now exposed in the indictment.3. BEFORE PERRY'S DEATH, A PERSONAL TRAINER DIED OF SANGHA'S DRUG ODFriends actor Perry was not the only victim of the drug she filings cited revealed that Sangha was previously linked to the death of another victim, Cody McLaury, who died in August 2019 after purchasing ketamine from in court, also admitted to selling ketamine to Cody McLaury, who was a 33-year-old aspiring personal trainer in Los died of an overdose just hours after allegedly buying ketamine from the 'queen', CNN reported in September found text messages on McLaury's phone showing he had paid Sangha for the drug via Venmo shortly before his McLaury's sister, Kimberly, confronted Sangha in a text about ketamine being listed on her brother's death certificate, Sangha reportedly ignored her but later searched Google for "can ketamine be listed as a cause of death".Prosecutors cited this search as evidence that Sangha knew the dangers of unsupervised ketamine use.

WHAT DID DEA FIND IN SANGHA'S HOLLYWOOD 'STASH HOUSE' RAIDIn March 2024, when Sangha's North Hollywood residence, dubbed the "drug-selling emporium" and "Sangha stash house", was raided by the federal Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA), they uncovered a significant cache of multiple illegal authorities discovered over 80 vials of ketamine, a dissociative anaesthetic linked to Matthew Perry's fatal overdose in October also found approximately 1,978 grams of orange pills that tested positive for methamphetamine, reported search also revealed thousands of other pills, including cocaine and Xanax, which solidified the home's reputation as a "drug-selling emporium", according to US Attorney Martin described the residence as a hub for packaging and distributing Sangha's guilty plea has cemented her fall from self-styled "celebrity dealer" to a convicted felon at the centre of one of Hollywood's most high-profile OD cases.

Angelina Jolie leaving Hollywood? Actress plans to sell US home and move abroad
Los Angeles [US], August 19 (ANI): Hollywood actor Angelina Jolie is reportedly planning to sell her house in the United States and relocate abroad with her children. According to a People magazine report, the actor is preparing to put her Los Angeles home on the market ahead of the move. "Jolie never wanted to live in L.A. full-time. She didn't have a choice because of the custody arrangement with her ex-husband Brad Pitt," the source said, as quoted by the outlet. The report added that Jolie may relocate as soon as her youngest children, twins Knox and Vivienne, turn 18 next year. "She's eyeing several locations abroad. She'll be very happy when she's able to leave Los Angeles," the source added. In an earlier interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Jolie briefly touched upon her personal life, involving her children and divorce from Pitt. Even though she grew up in Los Angeles, the actress remains in the city because of the legalities surrounding her divorce. "When you have a big family, you want them to have privacy, peace, safety. I have a house now to raise my children, but sometimes this place can be... that humanity that I found across the world is not what I grew up with here," she said. Jolie and Brad Pitt finalised their divorce in December last year, citing "irreconcilable differences." "More than eight years ago, Angelina filed for divorce from Mr. Pitt. She and the children left all of the properties they had shared with Mr. Pitt, and since that time, she has focused on finding peace and healing for their family," her lawyers told People at the time. The former couple share six children, including Maddox, Pax, Zahara, Shiloh, and twins Knox and Vivienne. On the work front for Angelina Jolie, the actress will reunite with her 'Mr and Mrs Smith' director Doug Liman for the upcoming spy thriller, 'The Initiative,' reported Variety. Details surrounding the film's plot have been kept under wraps. (ANI)
