Meet Kaia Gerber's friend Nick Hargrove: the American Primeval actor was recently seen hanging out with the model in Mexico – but why did he shy away from acting after auditioning for The Sixth Sense?

Supermodel Cindy Crawford's daughter Kaia Gerber, who according to People, split from Elvis actor Austin Butler late last year after three years together, is focusing on her career. She just made her stage debut in dark comedy Evanston Salt Costs Climbing, and her famous mum couldn't be prouder. Sharing photos from her performance at LA's Rogue Machine Theatre on her Instagram, Crawford gushed over her daughter being 'fearless on stage'.
That's not to say her love life is on the back burner: People reports that she is dating
Lewis Pullman , son of Hollywood legend Bill Pullman – the seemingly loved-up pair were spotted at LA eatery Salazar, celebrating his birthday. Gerber has also been spending time with friends: days ahead of her big show, she was soaking up the sun at Cabo San Lucas in Mexico, where, per DeuxMoi, she was accompanied by pals Travis Jackson and Nick Hargrove.

Kaveen Savalani's top pick: ‘I Survived the American Revolution'

Do you have a book, movie or show recommendation? Send us your top picks using this form . I love reading the I Survived graphic novel series, written by Lauren Tarshis. I read the one about the American Revolution, which took place in 1776. The main character is a boy called Nate. He gets lost in the woods trying to find a safe place after running away from his mean uncle. He sneaks onto a ship and ends up in New York. He tries to get a job on a ship, but the leader of the American army says he can be a soldier. America was fighting Britain because it didn't want to be a colony any more. It wanted to be independent. After years of war, America finally defeated Britain and became its own country. I like the characters even if they aren't real. I got to learn about the war through Nate. The author also wrote about Native Americans, and that made me think about who has the right to the land.

Taiwanese singer Anpu cancels Hong Kong concert, organiser cites ‘irresistible force'

Taiwanese singer Anpu has cancelled her concert in Hong Kong next month, with the organiser citing 'irresistible force.' The concert was scheduled to be held on August 23 at AsiaWorld Arena, near Hong Kong International Airport. 'Due to the irresistible force of the organiser's situation, there is no way for the concert to go ahead as planned,' concert organiser CCY Entertainment said in a statement on Tuesday. It did not elaborate on what 'irresistible force' was. The Taiwanese singer, whose full name is Chiao Anpu, publicly supported Taiwan's Sunflower Movement in 2014 and Hong Kong's Umbrella Movement in the same year. However, she came under fire from fans last year after her management company posted her handwritten message celebrating China's National Day on October 1 on Weibo. 'Irresistible force' In the comments section of the organiser's Instagram post, some concertgoers asked what 'irresistible force' meant, while others complained that they had already booked hotels or that the handling fee was non-refundable. According to the organiser, ticket vendors KKTIX, and Damai, which primarily serve the mainland Chinese market, will arrange refunds without customers needing to apply. However, handling fees will be non-refundable. This is not the first time a performance or an art event has been cancelled in Hong Kong without a clear explanation. Hong Kong singer Pong Nan's concert in January was axed due to a venue cancellation by the city's art hub. Pong, who is openly gay, is known for his support of the 2019 anti-extradition bill movement. The House of Hong Kong Literature, a non-profit that promotes the city's literary scene, said on July 21 that it was forced to call off a book fair, citing 'factors beyond our control.' A fundraising concert organised by the Hong Kong Journalists Association (HKJA) moved online, after the live performance was axed due to what the press group described as 'an irresistible force.'

ONE Championship signs up world's top women's jiu-jitsu prospect

Helena Crevar's meteoric rise in Brazilian jiu-jitsu has already made her a stand-out name – now, the teenage sensation is set to bring her talents to the global stage with ONE Championship. Advertisement The 18-year-old Las Vegas native has officially signed with ONE and is an exciting addition to the submission grappling roster. But what makes her arrival even more significant is the nature of her deal: a rare non-exclusive contract that allows her to continue competing in other events around the world. 'It's really important that athletes get to compete wherever possible,' Crevar told the Post. 'It helps both the athletes and the promotions to be more open, have more options, and get the most experience.' Crevar is widely viewed as one of the top prospects in the sport. She became the youngest ever podium placer at the ADCC World Championships in 2024, claiming silver at just 17 years old. That same year, she also captured the Polaris 70-kilogram title and continued collecting IBJJF World and Pan-American titles across multiple belt levels. A product of the famed New Wave Jiu-Jitsu team under legendary coach John Danaher, Crevar moved to Austin, Texas, at the age of 15 to train full time. She was promoted to black belt in June 2025, marking 10 years since she first stepped onto the mats. 'To be John Danaher's first female black belt is a huge honour,' she said. 'He's incredibly smart; he knows the answer to any position or scenario. I've never trained under anyone like him.'
