Bridget Fonda looks even slimmer now after her dramatic weight loss amid Hollywood's Ozempic craze

Daily Mail​a day ago

Actress Bridget Fonda glowed when she was spotted out and about in Los Angeles this week, after her dramatic weight loss of recent months.
After working with a string of top-flight directors like Francis Ford Coppola and Quentin Tarantino, she suffered an accident in the 2000s and left movies behind.
Although she is married to Danny Elfman, one of the most famous composers in the entertainment industry, she has not acted since 2002.
She gained weight in the years since she started leading a more private life - but in more recent months, observers have noticed her reduced frame.
Her trimmed-down physique has set off speculation, given the Ozempic craze sweeping Hollywood, but fans have also theorized that she might have shed the pounds naturally by way of diet and exercise.
When she surfaced on Friday, the 61-year-old looked even slimmer than before, draping her lither figure in an olive t-shirt and black trousers with a flannel shirt.
Gathering her hair up into a bun, she could be glimpsed refreshing herself with an iced beverage amid the soaring summer temperatures in Los Angeles.
Bridget hails from an exalted Hollywood dynasty, as the granddaughter of Old Hollywood stalwart Henry Fonda and the niece of Jane Fonda.
She has not publicly commented on her weight loss, which many fans suspect may have simply been the result of lifestyle changes like altering her eating habits.
Meanwhile, a raft of celebrities have admitted to taking weight-loss drugs, from Meghan Trainor and Sharon Osbourne to Amy Schumer and Rebel Wilson.
Bridget and her husband, Hollywood composer Danny Elfman, have not been pictured together in years, fueling rumors about the state of their marriage.
However there has been no indication in the publicly available Los Angeles court records that the pair have gotten divorced.
In recent years Danny has denied a spate of sexual harassment allegations, including from a former protégée who claimed he served her a martini glass of semen.
Danny, who is particularly known for his longstanding professional collaboration with Tim Burton, married Bridget in 2003 and welcomed a son with her in 2005.
Publicly available court records in Los Angeles show no sign that Fonda has divorced her husband Danny Elfman, whom she married in 2003
In February 2003, during her engagement, Bridget fractured her vertebrae in a car accident on the Pacific Coast Highway.
The injury prompted her to withdraw from the entertainment industry and lead a life outside the spotlight, which she has done ever since.
After beginning her career aged five alongside her father Peter Fonda in the 1969 film Easy Rider, she last acted in a 2002 TV movie called Snow Queen.
In between, she was directed by such names as Francis Ford Coppola in The Godfather Part III and Quentin Tarantino in Jackie Brown.
A couple of years ago, when an interviewer asked her if she might ever stage a comeback, she replied: 'No, I don't think so, it's too nice being a civilian.'

Trump attends UFC championship fight in New Jersey, taking a break from politics, Musk feud

President Donald Trump walked out to a thunderous standing ovation just ahead of the start of the UFC pay-per-view card at the Prudential Center on Saturday night, putting his public feud with tech billionaire Elon Musk on hold to instead watch the fierce battles inside the cage. Trump was accompanied by UFC President Dana White and the pair headed to their cageside seats to Kid Rock's 'American Bad Ass.' Trump and White did the same for UFC's card last November at Madison Square Garden, only then they were joined by Musk. Trump shook hands with fans and supporters — a heavyweight lineup that included retired boxing champion Mike Tyson — on his way to the cage. Trump was joined by his daughter Ivanka Trump and her husband, Jared Kushner, along with son Eric Trump and Secretary of State Marco Rubio. Trump shook hands with the UFC broadcast team that included Joe Rogan. Rogan hosted Trump on his podcast for hours in the final stages of the campaign last year. UFC fans went wild for Trump and held mobile devices in their outstretched arms to snap pictures of him. Trump arrived in time for the start of a card set to include two championship fights. Julianna Peña and Merab Dvalishvili were scheduled to each defend their 135-pound championships. UFC fighter Kevin Holland won the first fight with Trump in the building, scaled the cage and briefly chatted with the President before his post-fight interview. ___

Fans go wild over 'turbo hot' WNBA star Sophie Cunningham as she poses with Caitlin Clark in barely-there outfit

Sophie Cunningham wasn't healthy enough to play for the Indiana Fever on Saturday night, but she still did enough to send social media crazy over her arrival outfit in Chicago. The Fever beat Angel Reese and Co with ease in the first ever WNBA game held at United Center - even with injured duo Caitlin Clark and Cunningham playing the role of assistant coaches on the sidelines. And before the game had even begun, Cunningham had set fans wild with her bold fit, posing for photos with Clark during their arrival at the arena. Taking to X, one labeled the Australian 'turbo hot', while another added: 'I'd let Sophie Cunningham ruin my life.' A third said: 'Sophie Cunningham is a total babe,' while a fourth noted: 'Sophie Cunningham could save my life.' On TikTok and Instagram before the game, Cunningham revealed her pregame outfit to her followers, pairing a sheer barely-there top with black shorts and a blazer. Clark, meanwhile, opted for a green halterneck top and matching pants, before the pair both changed into sportswear for their role on the sidelines. Clark and Cunningham have grown ever-closer since the latter's arrival in Indiana during the offseason, with many labeling them 'besties' after various snaps of the pair together on and off the court. On Saturday night, the Fever didn't need two of their best players - or their coach - to seal a huge win over the rival Sky. Chicago put up a season-worst 52 points in the 79-52 scoreline, despite a bumper home crowd that had shown up for the game. Indiana guard Kelsey Mitchell led her team in scoring with 17 points, while Aliyah Boston and Natasha Howard were both in double figures. Cunningham and Clark, meanwhile, are edging closer to a return from injury. The former is suffering from an ankle issue, while Clark is due back next week after her ankle problem.

BREAKING NEWS Donald Trump arrives at UFC 316 with one-man entourage Dana White months after sitting cageside with Elon Musk

President Donald Trump was Dana White 's guest of honor at UFC 316 in Newark, where he was seen greeting Mike Tyson before watching the UFC Bantamweight title rematch between current champion Merab Dvalishvili and ex-champ Sean O'Malley. Strolling into Newark's Prudential Center with White, Trump took a moment to shake hands with former Tennessee Titans teammates Will Compton and Taylor Lewan before taking his cage-side seat. Fight night was part of a busy weekend for Trump. After jetting to his New Jersey golf club on Friday and attending UFC 316 Saturday night, Trump was scheduled to head to Camp David for Sunday's planned 'retreat of principals,' according to multiple reports. The retreat will also include Vice President JD Vance, among others, and a number of topics are expected to be discussed. Trump last attended a UFC event in April in Miami alongside billionaire Elon Musk, but the President's relationship with his biggest donor has changed considerably since then. On Saturday, Trump warned that Musk would face 'very serious consequences' if he was to start bankrolling Democratic candidates. Their relationship disintegrated earlier this week as the former allies battled it out on social media after disagreeing on Trump's 'Big Beautiful Bill.' Speaking with NBC News' Kristen Welker on Saturday, Trump was asked what he would do if Musk crossed the political aisle and donated to Democrats. 'If he does, he'll have to pay the consequences for that. He'll have to pay very serious consequences if he does that', he told out the outlet. Musk, who is worth $330 billion, was a major contributor to Trump's presidential campaign - spending at least $250 million in supporting his race for the White House last year. Asked specifically if he thought his relationship with the mega-billionaire CEO of Tesla and SpaceX is over, Trump responded: 'I would assume so, yeah.' 'I'm too busy doing other things. I won an election in a landslide. I gave him a lot of breaks, long before this happened,' he said. 'I gave him breaks in my first administration, and saved his life in my first administration, I have no intention of speaking to him', Trump added. Musk already said that he would be cutting back on spending on political campaigns ahead of next year's midterm elections. The president also accused Musk of being 'disrespectful to the office of the president.' 'I think it's a very bad thing, because he's very disrespectful,' Trump said. 'You could not disrespect the office of the president.' During their spat, Musk even suggested in a since-deleted post that Trump had been named in the government files involving convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. Responding to that remark, Trump said: 'That's called "old news," that's been old news, that has been talked about for years. 'Even Epstein's lawyer said I had nothing to do with it. It's old news.' The two dialed back their barbs at each other by Friday night, with both saying that they wished each other well. But by that point, the damage to their relationship looked to be done. Following the outbreak of their feud, Trump and his allies have said Musk turned on the bill because it cuts subsidies for electric vehicles. Musk has said he doesn't need them anyway. Trump is no stranger to the UFC or its President and CEO. In fact, Trump tapped White to speak for him at the last three Republican National Conventions, leading many to wonder if he'd serve a greater role in the White House at some point. 'His base is Trump's base,' Kellyanne Conway, Trump's former White House counselor, previously told The New York Times of White. 'And Trump's base is his base.' White, however, has downplayed any potential Trump appointment. 'Donald Trump is one of my very good friends,' White told Sports Business Journal through a spokesperson. 'He did a great job in his last term as president, and I know he will do an even better job the next four years. I have no personal political aspirations.' Besides, White may provide a greater service to Trump through what The New York Times calls 'cage-match politics.' Trump now makes regular cage-side appearances at UFC events, where fight fans — and the fighters themselves — have showered the former President with adulation.
