#SHOWBIZ: Sheila Majid urges celebrities to be wiser on social media
Sheila added that she takes her time before posting anything, especially photos, to avoid any negative reactions. "Not everyone is going to like us. I always think very carefully before uploading anything."
To protect her mental health, she also steers clear of reading harsh comments. "I don't bother with hurtful remarks. Who knows who they are; it could be an eight-year-old. There's no need to argue; they just want attention."
Sheila also manages her own Instagram account and never uses it to vent her frustrations. "There's no benefit in posting when you're angry," she said, though she acknowledged that every celebrity has their own approach.
"If someone wants to post eight selfies a day, that's entirely up to them."

Jake Larson, US WWII veteran with 1.2 million TikTok followers, dies at 102
He became an unexpected social media star when his granddaughter opened a TikTok account in his name. Photo: Jake Larson/Instagram Jake Larson, a World War II veteran who had over 1.2 million followers on TikTok, has died at the age of 102, as announced by his granddaughter on social media. Affectionately known online as "Papa Jake," Larson helped plan the Normandy landings and stormed Omaha Beach in Normandy, France. He became an unexpected social media star when his granddaughter opened a TikTok account in his name, followed by his autobiography. "Our beloved Papa Jake passed away on July 17th at the age of 102. Please know that he went peacefully and continued to make jokes until the very end," his granddaughter, McKaela Larson, wrote on Instagram. "At this time, my family and I are asking for some privacy as we process this loss." "I am so grateful that I got to share my Papa Jake with all of you. You were the world to him. When the time is right, I will continue to share Papa Jake's stories and keep his memory alive," she added. "We appreciate all of your kind words and posts. As Papa would say, I love you a bushel and a peck." Born on December 20, 1922, in Owatonna, Minnesota, Larson grew up on a farm without electricity or running water during the Great Depression. He enlisted in the National Guard in 1938 at the age of 15, lying about his age, according to the Best Defense Foundation. His unit was transferred to federal service in 1941 following Japan's surprise attack on Pearl Harbor, Hawaii. In January 1942, he was sent overseas and stationed in Northern Ireland. He became an operations sergeant and prepared plans for Operation Overlord, the invasion of Normandy. Larson was among the Allied troops who stormed the Normandy coast on June 6, 1944, surviving machine-gun fire as he landed on Omaha Beach. He made it unscathed to the bluffs overlooking the beach, then littered with German artillery positions that mowed down American soldiers. After D-Day, he fought during the Battle of the Bulge. He and his beloved Lola later settled in California, where they raised a family after the war. In 2020, his granddaughter started a TikTok account, "storytimewithpapajake," through which he amassed online fame. In 2021, he wrote an autobiography titled The Luckiest Man Alive: Stories From Papa Jake's Life . Larson returned to Normandy for several commemorative celebrations and for the anniversary of D-Day in recent years. – Adnkronos International/Tribune News Service

Diogo Jota's wife shares 'forever' tribute in heartfelt post
LIVERPOOL: The widow of Diogo Jota has paid tribute to the late Liverpool forward, one month after their wedding and three weeks after he was killed in a car crash in Spain. Rute Cardoso shared photos of their Jue 22 wedding in a post to Instagram, BBC reported. Three pictures were accompanied with the words "one month of our 'until death do us part'," adding she was "forever" his. Jota, 28, died alongside his brother, André Silva, after the Lamborghini they were travelling in burst into flames following a suspected tyre blowout in Zamora in the early hours of July 3. Jota joined Liverpool from Wolves in 2020 and went on to score 65 goals in 182 appearances for the club. He played a key role in helping Liverpool win both the FA Cup and League Cup in 2022, adding another League Cup title in 2024, before lifting the Premier League trophy last season. Last week, Liverpool announced that the club would retire Jota's number 20 shirt in his honour. A mural has also been created near Anfield, featuring the number 20 and surrounded by messages left by fans in tribute.
