European film fans have good taste, says Ana de Armas
Ana de Armas thinks European film fans have particularly "good taste". The 37-year-old actress - who was born Cuba, before moving to Spain and then to the US - believes that American and European film fans are distinctly different. Ana - who has become one of the most sought-after actresses in Hollywood in recent years - explained on 'Hot Ones': "The influence of American cinema in Europe is stronger I would say. "Europeans like European films I would say. I think Europeans also – or Spanish people – have a pretty wide spectrum of, they know about cinema, and they have good taste." Ana is now one of the best-paid actresses in the American movie business. However, she never actually planned to end up in Hollywood at any stage. Speaking about her career arc, Ana explained: "You know, going to Los Angeles or going to Hollywood, was never actually a plan for me. I moved to Spain and then from Spain to Los Angeles, but it was just kind of happening naturally. I just never planned on it." Ana has already worked with the likes of Daniel Craig, and Keanu Reeves during her career, and she appreciates the opportunities that have come her way in recent years. The actress said: "To be on set with them was always kind of like a pinch-me moment every time. And I've worked with really, really amazing people." Meanwhile, Ana previously revealed that she found it easy to relate to Marilyn Monroe in 'Blonde'. The actress portrayed Marilyn in the Andrew Dominik-directed biographical film, and Ana admitted to seeing some similarities between herself and the Hollywood icon. She told Vanity Fair magazine: "There was a lot there that I could relate to. "If you put Marilyn Monroe the movie star aside, she's just an actress trying to navigate life and this system, which is so hard to navigate for anybody. On top of that, you add this point of view of Andrew's, which was to see that through her trauma. "I truly thought it was going to do justice to a more dimensional human being, because I wouldn't want to be remembered just for one thing. I am more than just an actress on the cover of a magazine." Ana believes that modern-day movie stars don't compare to people like Marilyn. The actress explained that social media has removed the sense of "mystery" that used to surround Hollywood stars. She said: "I feel like the new generations don't have that concept, because of social media. There is so much information out there and oversharing. "The concept of a movie star is someone untouchable you only see onscreen. That mystery is gone. For the most part, we've done that to ourselves - nobody's keeping anything from anyone anymore."

Workers from Laos bar where Aussie teenagers Holly Bowles and Bianca Jones died of methanol poisoning flee country to new jobs
Two workers employed at the Laos bar where two Australian travellers died of methanol poisoning have fled the country. They had been working at the Nana Backpackers Hostel when the 19-year-old Melbourne women, Holly Bowles and Bianca Jones, became two of six international victims that died after drinking the tainted alcohol in the establishment. The Herald Sun revealed on Friday that the two men, employed as a bartender and a hostel manager at the time of the incident in November last year, have found new jobs in Vietnam. After they fled the Laos tourist town of Vang Vieng, the outlet reports that the former hostel manager, known as Pikachu, was employed at a new hostel in his home country of Vietnam, and that the former bartender was now employed at a hotel there. The two men were among those detained after the incident. Hotel staff and management were among at least eight people taken into police custody. The Laotian government vowed to 'bring the perpetrators to justice in accordance with the law'. But no charges have been filed, and officials in Laos have released almost no details in the mass poisoning case since November. Alongside the Melbourne teens, an American man, two Danish women and a British woman died of methanol poisoning at the hostel. Jones and Bowles had joined other guests for free shots of alcohol offered by the hostel before going out for the night, but after becoming ill, did not leave their room for 24 hours and failed to check out as scheduled. They were taken to a hospital in Laos before being transferred to Thailand, where they were treated in two separate Bangkok hospitals after their parents raced to be by their bedsides. Jones' father Mark, upon learning of the whereabouts of the bartender and hostel manager, told the Herald Sun: 'We want the Australian Government to apply as much pressure as they can to bring justice to all those involved in the methanol poisoning of our girls.' Methanol is a form of alcohol commonly used in cleaning and industrial products, but it is toxic for humans and drinking as little as 30ml can be lethal. Outbreaks of methanol poisoning occur when the chemical is added to alcoholic drinks, either inadvertently through traditional brewing methods or deliberately — usually in the pursuit of profit. Thousands of people suffer from methanol poisoning every year, with most cases reported in Asia from people drinking bootlegged liquor or homemade alcohol. Many Southeast Asian nations have low safety standards, patchy regulatory enforcement and high levels of police corruption. Stream free on

No clubs, no worries as prodigy makes US Open move
After surviving a real-life nightmare, American golf prodigy Amari Avery has Australian Gabriela Ruffels to thank for being in the thick of the mix at the US Women's Open in Wisconsin. Avery had to borrow Ruffels' clubs for the second round following a frightening midnight mix-up after an intruder tried to break in to her rental home near Milwaukee. The 20-year-old former junior world champion was forced to hastily pack up all her gear in the middle of the night and book into a hotel. Unfortunately, Avery's boyfriend was using the same type of travel bag and flew back to Los Angeles with her clubs on Friday morning (Saturday AEST). In one of golf's wildest tales, the blunder left Avery needing to use Ruffels' clubs, and even the hat off the Australian's head. Ruffels had missed the cut following her morning round before Avery proceeded to defy the odds and climb into contention at the year's second major. With consecutive birdies at the 14th and 15th holes, her fifth and sixth of the day after teeing off on No.10, Avery surged to three under for the championship. She dropped a shot on her 12th hole but was only six strokes off the lead, tied for 20th at two under with Australian stars Minjee Lee and Hannah Green, when a storm forced the suspension of play. Avery will return to the course, possibly with her own equipment, hunting down Japanese leader Mao Saigo when her boyfriend's mother flies back with her clubs on Saturday.
