In Martin Brundle's famous Grid Walk ahead of the 2025 Miami Grand Prix, fans watched as Formula 1 legend Sir Jackie Stewart once again helped the Sky Sports F1 commentator, grabbing Black Pink pop star and White Lotus actor Lisa for an interview. As you'd expect, this moment achieved viral status.
Ahead of the now-famous Miami race, the grid was swarming with celebrities from across the globe, on top of the usual team personnel readying their machinery for the race ahead. Boxing legend Evander Holyfield and current boxer Conor Benn were in attendance, both offering their time to the commentator and his cameraman.
Brundle, famous for not only his former driving in the sport but also his iconic grid walk interviews, approached Sir Jackie, wearing his usual tartan suit. The two chatted about the upcoming race, with the three-time champion professing his love for the trophy for the winner of today's Grand Prix.

Previously, the racing driver secured an interview with Roger Federer for Brundle. Ducking under a security rope, Sir Jackie was able to chase down the sportsman and pull him into frame for Brundle to chat with.

Brundle, discussing the moment when Sir Jackie caught Federer, said the following:
"What a legend, 83 years old! I happened across him at the front of that rope, it was sort of like trying to get into a dodgy nightclub, wasn't it?" he said.
"The pair of us, we had no chance – we had the wrong dress code or something!
"I found that whole procedure a little bit weird on the grid. But there were so many people around, and I particularly wanted to talk to Roger [Federer] as I got to the front there. I just happened to see Jackie and he was like, 'Do you want to talk to him?' and he said 'I'll get him, I'll get him!'
"Then he jumps over the rope, and there were three people running after him. I'm like, 'Oh, my God, I've just gotten Jackie Stewart thrown out of this place', and we've both been thrown out of better places than that!
"It was hilarious, really. Then I started to panic a little bit, if I'm honest! He's 83, I don't need him over there risking himself just for an interview. So he was great. That's a true mate, isn't it, when they go the extra mile for you like that?"

Millennial Woman Shares Clingiest Pet—No One Expecting What She Reveals
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. A woman has gone viral for showing of her "stage-5 clinger" pet—a duckling who has become incredibly attached to her. Alissa Gore, 32, lives in Alabama with her husband and four children on a farm they have started running together. And on that farm, there was a duck: named Eleanor, who has formed an extremely strong bond to Gore. "Ever since she was little, she would sit in the hood of my sweatshirt while I cooked dinner," Gore told Newsweek. "Once she got too big, I started putting her in a baby carrier sometimes. "All of our ducks enjoy a hug, but they don't like to stay in our hugs for very long. Eleanor wants to be held for long periods of time," she added. A video to Gore's TikTok account @alissagore on May 17, viewed close to 10 million times, proved just how clingy Eleanor can be, as Gore recorded herself trying to put the duckling down so she could run to the store. In the clip, Gore holds the duckling like a baby, with its neck and beak tucked over her shoulder. And the second she tries to put Eleanor down—while apologizing for having to do so—the duckling starts kicking, flailing and making upset noises. Alissa Gore shows how much her duckling, Eleanor, loves to be picked up and cuddled. Alissa Gore shows how much her duckling, Eleanor, loves to be picked up and cuddled. TikTok @alissacgore The battle of wills goes on, as, each time Eleanor gets upset, Gore puts her back into her nestling position. But once she tries to put her down again, Eleanor starts flailing and cheeping miserably, with Gore apologizing repeatedly. "I'm sorry," Gore tells Eleanor—and, by the end of the clip, the duckling remains in Gore's arms, the trip to the store being put off until later. She said: "She is a lovable, silly duck with such a big personality. We all love her so much and love learning about each of our animal's personalities. "Tidbit, our newest duck, has also gained some internet attention, because he likes to sit in my armpit," Gore said, adding that her husband has "started calling me the animal whisperer." TikTok users loved the video of Eleanor, as one user wrote that she was commenting on the video "so you get paid and can get DoorDash instead of putting down that duck." "Get her a baby carrier and take her to the grocery store," another posted, while one comment read: "Must not show this video to my wife. She wants ducks. She loves ducks. If she sees this and we get ducks I will blame you." And another viewer asked: "How do I get a snuggle duck?" From left: Each time Gore tries to put the duckling down, Eleanor flails and makes upset noises. From left: Each time Gore tries to put the duckling down, Eleanor flails and makes upset noises. TikTok @alissacgore Gore said she has been told by "many people" that it is unusual for a duck to behave like this toward a human. Ducklings, like other birds, can imprint on a human, perceiving them as their own species if they hatch without a mother duck present. However, it does not necessarily mean the ducklings will be particularly friendly to that human, according to the Wildlife Center of Virginia. "It has been a blessing for me to see how many lives Eleanor and I have touched through our videos," Gore said. "If I could leave any impact in this world besides raising my children, it would be to make people smile and laugh. We need more of that."

Princess Kate's Poignant Milestone in Cancer Journey
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. Princess Kate is expected to attend Trooping the Colour this weekend, marking one year since her return to public life following her cancer diagnosis. The Princess of Wales retreated from the public glare in the first half of 2024 after having abdominal surgery in January and later announcing a cancer diagnosis. As she avoided the limelight, social media users circulated increasingly morbid conspiracy theories, with some even suggesting the palace was covering up her death. The annual military parade, which Kate attended last June while undergoing chemotherapy, served as her first official appearance following her cancer announcement. On Saturday, the princess—who said in January that she was in remission—is expected to return for another Trooping the Colour, King Charles III's birthday parade.

BENJAMIN CREMEL/AFP via Getty Images The 'Where Is Kate Middleton' Conspiracy Theories Kate's team announced at the time of her abdominal surgery in January 2024 that she would spend a period of time out of the public eye. However, when there were no post-surgery images of the princess, the rumor mill went into overdrive—with Kim Kardashian among high profile figures to join the social media trend of asking, "Where is Kate Middleton." Amid a clamor for "proof of life" images of Kate following her surgery, the palace marked Mother's Day in the U.K. with an image of the princess surrounded by her children, Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis. The photo caused its own controversy, however, when it emerged that Kate had made numerous edits to the image. International picture agencies issued a "kill notice" instructing news outlets not to use it. Kate apologized on X, formerly Twitter, but the palace declined to release an original image, further fueling conspiracy theorists. Princess Kate Announces She Has Cancer On March 22, Kate released a recorded video announcing that she had been diagnosed with cancer and needed time away from the public eye. "In January, I underwent major abdominal surgery in London and at the time, it was thought that my condition was noncancerous," the princess said. She continued: "The surgery was successful. However, tests after the operation found cancer had been present. My medical team therefore advised that I should undergo a course of preventative chemotherapy and I am now in the early stages of that treatment. "This of course came as a huge shock, and William and I have been doing everything we can to process and manage this privately for the sake of our young family. "As you can imagine, this has taken time. It has taken me time to recover from major surgery in order to start my treatment. But, most importantly, it has taken us time to explain everything to George, Charlotte and Louis in a way that is appropriate for them, and to reassure them that I am going to be OK." Kate Chooses Trooping the Colour for Her Comeback Despite the gravity of her diagnosis, some social media users continued to create pressure for a public appearance from Kate by suggesting that her March video was AI generated. Two months after her announcement, Kate stepped out before the world's media, choosing a quintessentially royal moment for her comeback. The princess accompanied her children during the carriage procession of Trooping the Colour wearing an outfit inspired by Eliza Doolittle, the commoner who pretends to be a duchess, in My Fair Lady. Her appearance at the event was later described as a "boost to the nation." Louis likewise captured the hearts of the British public by dancing on the Buckingham Palace balcony.
