Suki Waterhouse Breaks Silence On Wardrobe Choice That Sent Her To The Hospital
The multi-hyphenated entertainer broke her silence on X, revealing that she was hospitalized due to a poor wardrobe choice during a concert. The incident occurred while she was promoting her new album, "Memoir of a Sparklemuffin."
Suki Waterhouse is no stranger to making headlines for her unique style, and she turned heads earlier this year by adding comfort to her elegant ensembles.
Waterhouse got vulnerable with fans on X while addressing her absence from the social media platform. She shared two pictures detailing the problem, the first capturing her onstage in green leather pants that stuck to her body like a second skin.
The second image was a selfie of Waterhouse lying on a hospital bed with a tangled mess of white wired earbuds and a blue vape. "Suki, you never tweet anymore. Have you ever considered I wore pants so tight 6 months ago it caused a hernia & I've been too scared to tell you," she captioned the post.
Waterhouse's words sparked mixed reactions from her followers, with some loving her bold actions while others berated her for vaping in a hospital. One supporter found her post relatable, writing:
"Tangled wired earbuds and vape on ur chest in the hospital is so real I love you."
Waterhouse's health update resonated with another fan, who claimed, "Vape in the hospital, that was me." An X user labeled the entertainer "a f-cking icon," while a fellow supporter chimed:
"On stage in leather trousers then attached to a drip in hospital later like a true 70s rockstar."
Although many loved Waterhouse's honesty, others criticized her recklessness. "This is what happens when we let Bradley Cooper read us Lolita in the park," someone declared, referencing the singer's infamous relationship with the older actor.
Another critic noted she needed to put the vape down, stressing, "D-mn girl! You gotta be able to breathe!"
The criticisms continued with an X user admonishing Waterhouse with the comment: "Girl, what is wrong with you. You can't vape in your hospital room, and if you are in the hospital, you clearly shouldn't be for your health either."
Meanwhile, others reacted to the health update with memes and jokes about tight trousers.
Waterhouse's hernia update might shock some fans, given her past wardrobe choices. The entertainer wowed her admirers early this year by choosing comfort over heels while navigating the snow-filled streets in New York City.
She rocked an all-black ensemble featuring an elegant cut-out leather trench coat with black tights and matching dark sunglasses. While many would complete this chic look with heels or boots, Waterhouse protected her feet with trainers from Kurt Geiger's SS25 collection.
The shoe choice added a splash of color to Waterhouse's elegant fit, keeping it chic yet retro. Her outfit, according to Women's Health Magazine, was the perfect trans-seasonal look for women looking to add comfort and personality to their outfits while commuting.
Waterhouse's hernia update comes a year after she welcomed a daughter with her fiancé, Robert Pattinson. The Blast covered the story, reporting that the longtime couple were spotted enjoying a family stroll with the newborn in Los Angeles.
At the time, the couple had not revealed their baby's gender but hinted at their first child being a girl by using an adorable pink stroller. Additionally, the model's mom, Elizabeth, wore a vibrant pink jumper while joining the lovebirds on their stroll.
Waterhouse first announced that she was expecting a child with Pattinson in November 2023, during a performance at the Corona Capital Festival in Mexico City.
"I thought I'd wear something sparkly today to distract you from something else I've got going on," she told the crowd before pushing back her dress to reveal her growing baby bump.
Months after welcoming her daughter, Waterhouse graced the cover of British Vogue and shared her candid thoughts on motherhood. She confessed that she was initially shocked after childbirth because she didn't know babies had to be breastfed every two hours.
"I was alarmed in the hospital when they kept waking me up. I was like, 'Excuse me? Is this what this entails?'" she recalled, per ABC News. Despite her anxiety, Waterhouse pushed through with the help of a good rap playlist and her loving fiancé.
She credited Pattinson for being her biggest supporter, noting: "He was there with me, and like all dads, he was nervous. But for someone who's quite an anxious person, he's been very calm." Waterhouse also dubbed "The Twilight" star the best dad she could hope for.
Here's to hoping Suki Waterhouse makes a swift recovery!

When Reggae Went Digital
In 1984, the corner known as Big Road was a crossroads for the economically struggling Waterhouse community of Kingston, Jamaica. There was sporadic violence from warring political factions and crime from local drug gangs. It was also a spot where neighborhood musicians, including the singers Junior Reid and Half Pint, and the vocal groups Black Uhuru and Wailing Souls, would congregate. Noel Davey, then 26, was an aspiring musician who played the melodica, a wind instrument with a keyboard. He could perform, by ear, any popular song of the day. 'People saw a certain talent in me,' Davey recalled, 'and said, if this youth had a keyboard, he would do a lot better.' George 'Buddy' Haye of the Wailing Souls told Davey he had one at his home in California and promised Davey that when he returned to the United States, he would send it. After a time, Davey received a Casio MT-40, an electronic keyboard programmed with 22 instrument sounds, a mini bass keyboard and six preset rhythms, one of which formed the basis for a revolution in Jamaican music. 'I got that instrument for a reason,' he said. 'It brought about a big difference in the music.' Before the year ended, Davey had recorded 'Under Mi Sleng Teng,' with lyrics lauding marijuana (sleng teng) over cocaine ('no cocaine, I don't wanna go insane') written and performed by Davey's friend Wayne Smith. The song, reissued on seven-inch vinyl by an independent reggae label, VP Records/Greensleeves, this week to commemorate its 40th anniversary, is believed to be among Jamaican music's earliest digital productions. The new sound was initially referred to as digital reggae to differentiate it from traditional reggae music. Davey and Smith's creation is likely dancehall reggae's most 'versioned' riddim, used in over 500 songs according to Riddim-ID, a website that catalogs the reuse of these instrumental backing tracks. 'I never heard anything like the 'Sleng Teng' before — it wasn't played by a band, it was just a continuous repetition of a keyboard,' said Johnny Osbourne, who had a hit using the riddim with 'Buddy Bye.'

Epstein scandal broadens as trove of letters from famous figures published
The long-running scandal surrounding the disgraced late financier and convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein broadened on Tuesday after the New York Times published a trove of previously unseen letters to Epstein from numerous powerful figures as well as unseen photographs from inside his Manhattan mansion. The letters, written to Epstein by a number of high-profile individuals, were reportedly compiled as a birthday gift for Epstein's 63rd birthday in 2016. Their publication comes amid intense speculation around Donald Trump's ties to Epstein, who was found dead in a New York jail in 2019 and had long cultivated a celebrity social circle of the rich and powerful. In one letter, former prime minister of Israel Ehud Barak and his wife wrote 'there is no limit to your curiosity.' Related: US House panel subpoenas Bill and Hillary Clinton for Epstein testimony 'You are like a closed book to many of them but you know everything about everyone,' they wrote, describing Epstein as 'A COLLECTOR OF PEOPLE'. They continued: 'May you enjoy long and healthy life and may all of us, your friends, enjoy your table for many more years to come.' In a letter from film-maker Woody Allen, Allen reminisced about Epstein's dinner parties at his Upper East Side townhouse and described the gatherings as 'always interesting'. He noted that the parties included 'politicians, scientists, teachers, magicians, comedians, intellectuals, journalists' and 'even royalty'. Allen also described the dinners as 'well served': 'I say well served – often it's by some professional houseman and just as often by several young women' who he said reminded him of 'Castle Dracula where Lugosi has three young female vampires who service the place.' Other letter writers reportedly included billionaire media mogul Mortimer Zuckerman; Noam Chomsky and his wife; Joichi Ito, the former head of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) Media Lab; physicist Lawrence M Krauss; and Harvard biologist and mathematician Martin Nowak. Allen, Ito, Zuckerman and Nowak did not respond to requests for comment from the Times. Barak reportedly declined to comment, and Chomsky's wife responded on his behalf, also declining to comment. Krauss reportedly told the Times that he didn't recall the letter but did attend 'several lunches with very interesting discussions' with scientists, authors and others at Epstein's house. In addition to the letters, the Times also published photos from inside Epstein's seven-story Manhattan mansion. In his office, the images show a taxidermied tiger and reportedly show a green first edition copy of Lolita – the controversial 1955 novel about a middle-aged man's sexual obsession with and sexual abuse and rape of a 12-year-old girl – which the Times said was 'showcased'. Surveillance cameras can be seen in Epstein's bedroom and an adjoining room. In his 'massage room', where many underaged victims said that they were sexually assaulted by Epstein, the Times reports that there were paintings of naked women, shelves of lubricant, and a large silver ball and chain. Elsewhere in the house, dozens of framed photographs show Epstein pictured alongside longtime associate Ghislaine Maxwell, who is currently serving a 20-year prison sentence for sex trafficking. They also pictured Epstein with notable figures such as Pope John Paul II, Mick Jagger, Elon Musk, Fidel Castro, Bill Clinton, Larry Summers, Richard Branson, Saudi Arabia crown prince Mohammed bin Salman and former Trump White House adviser, Steve Bannon. One frame also displayed a dollar bill signed by Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates with the message 'I was wrong!' which the Times said was 'possibly as payment of a bet'. The Times also reported that the home's entryway featured framed prosthetic eyeballs, and that a suspended sculpture of a woman wearing a bridal gown and clutching a rope hung in the central atrium. According to the Times, a map of Israel drawn on a chalkboard that had the signature of former Israeli prime minister Barak was also in the home. Epstein died in federal custody in 2019 while awaiting trial on federal sex-trafficking charges. His death was ruled a suicide. The renewed scrutiny into Epstein's case comes as Trump and members of his administration had repeatedly vowed to release information related to the Epstein investigations. But in July, the administration reversed course, and the justice department announced it would not release any further documents or details regarding the case, prompting bipartisan outrage, including from Trump supporters and conservative media figures. Epstein's case has long been the subject of countless conspiracy theories, in part due to his ties to powerful people. His 2019 suicide has also fueled conspiracy theories for years. The justice department's recent announcement also reignited scrutiny of Trump's years-long friendship with Epstein. In July, the Wall Street Journal reported that Trump allegedly wrote Epstein a birthday card as part of a 50th birthday album organized by Maxwell in 2003. According to the report, Trump's letter featured a sketch of a naked woman with Trump's signature. Trump denied the Journal's report and sued the newspaper for libel. Around a week layer, the Journal reported that justice department officials had informed Trump earlier this year that his name appeared in the Epstein files. The paper noted that being mentioned in the records isn't a sign of wrongdoing. Trump's spokesperson denied the report, calling it 'fake news'. Facing growing pressure, the justice department sent Todd Blanche, the deputy attorney general and one of Trump's former lawyers, to meet with Maxwell in late July to see whether she had 'information about anyone who has committed crimes against victims'. The meeting, which lasted two days, was held behind closed doors. On Friday, Maxwell was transferred from a Florida prison to a lower-security facility in Texas. Solve the daily Crossword

Photo-sharing app Locket is banking on a new celebrity-focused feature to fuel its growth
Locket, the photo-sharing app that allows users to share images with friends that are then displayed on their home screens as widgets, wants to stay on your radar, and it's enlisting the help of celebrities. Locket emerged as a competitor to BeReal when it launched in 2022, offering a more authentic way to connect with others. The app places a widget on iPhone home screens that updates with the latest pictures added by friends. Users can select up to 20 close friends, creating an intimate space to share unfiltered selfies and updates on their lives. The app claims to have over 80 million total downloads, more than 9 million daily active users, and its users have shared more than 10 billion photos to date. Notably, the company also shared with TechCrunch that it achieved profitability in 2024, a significant accomplishment given its relatively modest fundraising efforts of just $12.5 million. To drive additional growth, Locket has been quietly testing a feature called 'Celebrity Lockets' for the past six months, which the app officially announced on Wednesday. Celebrity Lockets mostly focuses on music artists, letting them engage with fans by sharing details about upcoming shows, new album releases, and other news. Locket has already tested this feature with Suki Waterhouse and JVKE, with more artists to be announced soon. To use the feature, celebrities can share a link on their social media platforms, or fans can look them up in the app to add them, and they can then send photos directly to their fans' home screens. 'With posts going straight to fans' home screens, it offers the kind of immediacy and intimacy that other platforms can't replicate, turning passive followers into active participants,' founder Matt Moss told TechCrunch. Locket allows artists to choose a number of fans to connect with, ranging from 1,000 to 15,000 slots. For instance, Suki has 5,000 fans on the app and has helped Locket attract hundreds of new members. According to the company, 17% of these 5,000 fans were new to Locket. 'Fans feel special knowing they're one of just a few thousand rather than just another follower. This also preserves the same intimacy and brand of Locket as a product today … We knew our community used Locket to share music with their friends, so being able to also connect with their favorite artists is a natural evolution for the platform,' Moss said. Although Moss says the feedback from testers has been good, it's unclear whether this will help Locket grow its user numbers. BeReal tried something similar with a feature called 'RealPeople,' but the reception wasn't entirely positive, with some people saying that they preferred the anti-social media app as a way to escape from celebrities.
