Les Misérables cast 'refuse to attend latest show' over Trump appearance
To view this video please enable JavaScript, and consider upgrading to a web browser that supports HTML5 video Up Next Previous Page Next Page Donald Trump told the press he wasn't bothered, as he was met with boos and a boycott at the debut performance of Les Misérables at the Kennedy Center last night. In Washington, DC, on Wednesday night, Trump, 78, was among the guests at the Kennedy Centre for the performing arts, marking the first time the President had attended the event since his election in 2024. It was reported that at least 10 cast members opted out of performing as a way to boycott his attendance, meaning that understudies were likely called upon to step in. When asked about this form of defiance from the cast, Trump responded that he was unbothered. 'I couldn't care less. Honestly, I couldn't,' said Trump. 'All I do is run the country well.' When the boycott was first discussed in May, Kennedy Center director Richard Grenell said the move was 'vapid and intolerant'. 'Any performer who isn't professional enough to perform for patrons of all backgrounds, regardless of political affiliation, won't be welcomed,' said Grennell to CNN. 'In fact, we think it would be important to out those vapid and intolerant artists to ensure producers know who they shouldn't hire – and that the public knows which shows have political litmus tests to sit in the audience. 'The Kennedy Center wants to be a place where people of all political stripes sit next to each other and never ask who someone voted for but instead enjoys a performance together.' Donald Trump 'couldn't care less' that his appearance at a theatre was boycotted (Picture: AP) The President recently made himself the chairman of the Kennedy Centre (Picture:) Trump was booed and cheered as he arrived and took his seat next to his wife, Melania Trump. At the end of the intermission, it was reported that someone loudly cursed his name and drew applause from the audience. Drag Queens also appeared in the crowd, their presence was a silent protest against Trump's claims that the Center had hosted an excessive number of drag shows in the past. Several drag queens appeared at the Center (Picture:) Earlier this year, Trump made himself chairman of the Kennedy Centre, firing the board of trustees and confirming that he would reduce the number of drag shows at the historically liberal space. In a post on X in February he announced: 'At my direction, we are going to make the Kennedy Center in Washington D.C., GREAT AGAIN. I have decided to immediately terminate multiple individuals from the Board of Trustees, including the Chairman, who do not share our Vision for a Golden Age in Arts and Culture. We will soon announce a new Board, with an amazing Chairman, DONALD J. TRUMP! 'Just last year, the Kennedy Center featured Drag Shows specifically targeting our youth — THIS WILL STOP. The Kennedy Center is an American Jewel, and must reflect the brightest STARS on its stage from all across our Nation. For the Kennedy Center, THE BEST IS YET TO COME!' A response from the Kennedy Center at the time revealed that they had not received any communication from the White House about this, but were aware some members of their board had received termination notices. The Kennedy Center's statement continued: 'Per the Center's governance established by Congress in 1958, the chair of the board of trustees is appointed by the Center's board members. There is nothing in the Center's statute that would prevent a new administration from replacing board members; however, this would be the first time such action has been taken with the Kennedy Center's board.'

'I've seen it, we've seen it, a number of times, it's fantastic. It was just about our first choice. That's what we got and we've got other ones coming, other great ones coming,' Trump said. Despite being a huge fan, the President was unable to answer basic questions about the plot, like whether he found himself relating to the villain or the hero of the play. The reporter asked the President if he felt more aligned with the ruthless Inspector Javert, or Jean Valjean, the former convict mercilessly hunted down by Javert for stealing a loaf of bread to feed his family. 'Oh, that's a tough one, the last part of that question, that's tough, I think,' Trump said with a laugh. 'You better answer that one honey, I don't know.' Melania did not have a response for the reporter either. Got a story?

Love Island boys unrecognisable before hair transplants in before and after pics
The series 12 Love Island stars are beginning their fame journey - but two of the boys hard to recognise in pre-villa pics before undergoing hair transplants Love Island stars Ben Holbrough and Harry Cooksley look unrecognisable in pre-villa pics, as both have revealed they've undergone a hair transplant. Ben, 23, underwent the treatment at the age of 22, just one year before heading into the Love Island villa, while 30-year-old Harry travelled to Turkey to have the procedure at 24. Both Islanders have played a huge part in the shows drama this series, despite only being in the villa for a matter of days. On the first night, Ben, who was coupled up with Shakira, was stolen by American bombshell Toni. This left Shakira with just 24 hours to form a connection with another Islander. She struck up a connection with Harry, who was originally coupled up with Sophie - who was brutally dumped from the villa on day 2. However, Shakira and Toni may struggle to recognise their partners in pics before their hair transplants. Before and after results for Ben can be seen in a video posted by 360 Hair Clinic, in Brighton. Before his appearance in the villa, the clinic posted a video of his journey explaining: "Ben's hair transplant journey was facilitated by us at 360 Hair Clinic, supported by our ongoing treatment plans and 360 Optimum Hair products to maintain thickness, strength, and natural-looking results." In a separate post, the clinic posted a six month update, in which Ben's dark hair could be seen getting thicker and fuller. "And as you can see on your screens watching Love Island, Ben's hair is looking better than ever," the clinic wrote. Harry on the other hand, travelled to Turkey around six years ago for his operation - which he called the "perfect experience." In a YouTube video from the clinic documenting his journey, the star said: 'It was a perfect experience for something that I really wanted to have done and I'm very glad that I found EstePera.' Showing off the before and after results, Harry looked completely unrecognisable with no hair. It looks like it's set to be another dramatic night for Harry tonight as he finds out Blu and Shakira shared a kiss. It's Dejon who spills the tea, as he tells his friend: 'You know he (Blu) kissed her (Shakira)?' A shocked Harry then replies: 'No he didn't…I don't believe what I'm hearing.' Harry then asks Shakira about the kiss with Blu before telling her: 'All that matters is I want to pursue things with you.'
