Sana
, Jihyo, Mina, Dahyun, Chaeyoung, and Tzuyu - took over the stage and shared the spotlight with other global artists, including fellow K-pop act KickFlip.
They kicked things off with bangers like "Dance The Night Away" from 2018 and "The Feels" from 2021, getting the crowd hyped up like a fireworks show.

Twice didn't just sing it - they helped produce the soundtrack, adding that extra layer of cool. The cheers were deafening, proving K-pop's got that universal vibe that makes everyone groove, no matter where you're from.
Channelling Animated Awesomeness
Jeongyeon, Jihyo, and Chaeyoung channelled the bold characters Lumi, Joi, and Mira from the movie, making it feel like they'd jumped right out of the screen. It was bold, energetic, and left fans buzzing with that "did that just happen?" excitement.
For young folks who grew up on animated adventures mixed with high-energy dances, this was pure gold. This creative twist not only elevated the performance but also highlighted Twice's versatility, blending music with storytelling in a way that's fresh and relatable.

Emma recalls the day Trump asked for a date
Washington: Oscar-winning actress Emma Thompson has joked about Donald Trump "stalking" her after the now-US president called her to ask her on a date the very same day her divorce was finalised. The 66-year-old British actress said she could have "changed the course of American history," had she accepted his offer. Speaking at the Locarno Film Festival in Switzerland on August 8, where she received the Leopard Club Award for her career achievements, Thompson recounted the surprising call she got from Trump while filming the 1998 dramedy 'Primary Colors'. Thompson said she was in her trailer when the phone rang, and answering, she heard him say, "Hello, this is Donald Trump." 'I thought it was a joke and asked, 'How can I help you? Maybe he needed directions from someone,'' Thompson told The Telegraph. Donald Trump then invited her, saying, 'I'd love you to come and stay at one of my beautiful places. Maybe we could have dinner.' Her response was, 'Well, that's very sweet. Thank you so much. I'll get back to you.' Thompson said, 'I realised that on that day, my divorce decree had come through. And I bet he's got people looking for suitable people he could take out on his arm. You know, a nice divorcee, that's what he was looking for.' She added, 'And he found the number in my trailer. I mean, that's stalking.'

Fans call out Kourtney Kardashian over son's safety on boat: Why parents still skip safety gear and the risks they're taking
Kourtney Kardashian Barker just dropped some sweet summer boat pics of her family, probably thinking they'd get the usual 'so cute!' and 'mom goals!' comments. But the internet had other plans. Instead, a wave of followers zoomed in on the fact that her 1-year-old son, Rocky Thirteen, wasn't wearing a life jacket. Cue the mom-shaming, safety lectures, and heated debates in the comments section. Kourtney replied back to her fans. 'Update: bought a life vest that fits.' She also wrote, 'Good looking out. Honestly didn't think about some of the dangers. Thank you for making me aware and hopefully this helps make other mommies aware of the dangers of certain types of boating without a life vest." As per PEOPLE, she shared the post on her Instagram story. Now, celebrity or not, this isn't new territory. Every summer, someone gets called out for letting their kids skip the safety gear, especially when there's water involved. But it begs the question: why do so many parents still skip the life jacket rule, even when they know the risks? The 'it's just a quick ride' mindset One of the most common reasons parents give for skipping the vest? 'It's just a quick trip,' or 'We're not going far.' by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 20 Pieces of Clothing you Can be Too Old for Learn More Undo It's like thinking you don't need a seatbelt because you're only driving around the block. But boating accidents and falls overboard happen in seconds—and often in calm, sunny weather when people least expect it. Comfort vs. safety Let's be real, life jackets aren't the comfiest thing for little ones. They're bulky, they ride up, and toddlers aren't exactly known for sitting still. Parents sometimes give in to whining or think, 'I'll just hold them.' But even the strongest swimmer or most attentive parent can't always react in time if a child slips overboard. The 'I'm right here' illusion A lot of parents believe that because they're right next to their child, the risk is basically zero. But on a moving boat, distractions happen fast, adjusting a rope, grabbing a snack, answering a phone. That split-second of looking away is all it takes. Water safety experts say supervision is critical, but it's never a substitute for a life jacket, especially for kids under 13. In fact, in the US and Canada, most provinces and states have laws requiring them. When it's a Kardashian, the stakes get higher, not because the risks are any different, but because millions of followers are watching. Public figures are unofficial role models, whether they like it or not. When parents see celebrities skipping safety gear, it can normalize the idea that it's 'not a big deal.' Why this matters more than you think Here's the thing, life jackets aren't just for 'non-swimmers' or 'bad swimmers.' They're for everyone, because cold water shock, boat wakes, or even a sudden lurch can throw anyone off balance. For kids, their small size means they can't recover as easily if they hit the water. In Canada, drowning is the second-leading cause of death for kids under 5. In the US, it's the leading cause of unintentional injury death for kids ages 1–4. Most of these tragedies are preventable with proper safety gear.
