Hailee Steinfeld and Josh Allen are married

Hailee Steinfeld and Josh Allen have gotten married.
The 28-year-old actress and the Buffalo Bills quarterback were photographed walking down the aisle at a ceremony in California on Saturday (May 31).
The couple were initially linked romantically back in 2023 and went on to announce their engagement in an Instagram post last November — although the NFL star's proposal caught Hailee by surprise.
Asked if she suspected that Josh would pop the question, the Sinners star told Who What Wear: "Oh my god, no! You talk to your girlfriends about that, right, where you're like, 'I just don't want to know'."
She added about the proposal: "It was magical. That's the word."
Hailee was also delighted that Josh, 29, made sure that she was dressed appropriately for the occasion.
She said: "I'm so grateful that he did it the way he did so that I looked good, and we have these photos that we'll have to cherish for the rest of our lives that I'm not looking at being like, 'What was I wearing?'"
Josh recently described how he was really "proud" of Hailee following her starring role in the critically acclaimed horror movie Sinners.
He said: "I'm so excited for her and so proud of her.
"It's getting some great reviews and it's a fantastic movie, so go watch it."
The quarterback is one of the top players in the NFL and signed a six-year deal with the Buffalo Bills worth $330 million (S$425.2 million) in March but is happy to let his sporting talents take a backseat to Hailee's acting success.
Josh said: "I'm just there trying to support her in whatever way that I can.
"That was her moment and I'm so glad she got to shine."
Hailee had claimed in April that she was focusing on promoting Sinners — in which she plays the character Mary — before sorting out arrangements for her and Josh's wedding.
The Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse star told Extra: "We are in the middle of a press tour. We got a movie coming out in 12 days? Six, something. We're focused on that."
Steinfeld explained that she had learnt a lot about herself and her family during the making of the film, which is set in the south of the US during the 1930s.
She said: "I would say I learned a lot about my myself through Mary and even more about my family history … I had so many amazing conversations with my mom about her family and about her dad, my grandfather, who is half black, who I wish every day — because of this movie and for so many other reasons — I could call and ask him all the questions, and I would absolutely do that if he were here."

And she revealed her pregnancy while attending pop culture festival CCXP 2025 in Mexico City on May 31. The 37-year-old showed off her baby bump while walking the red carpet at a panel event for First Steps, in which she plays Invisible Woman/Sue Storm. The character's pregnancy was revealed in the trailer for the film. Sue Storm is the wife of Mister Fantastic/Reed Richards, played by Chilean-American actor Pedro Pascal. The Fantastic Four: First Steps also stars English actor Joseph Quinn as Human Torch/Johnny Storm – the younger brother of Sue Storm – and American actor Ebon Moss-Bachrach as The Thing/Ben Grimm. The movie opens in Singapore cinemas on July 24. Kirby was also seen cradling her baby bump in a short promotional video with her three co-stars in a post on Marvel's Instagram page on June 1.

President Tharman praises Indian music star A.R. Rahman for helping Singapore musicians

President Tharman Shanmugaratnam met award-winning Indian music star A.R. Rahman when the latter was in Singapore. PHOTO: THARMAN SHANMUGARATNAM/INSTAGRAM SINGAPORE - President Tharman Shanmugaratnam has praised Indian music star A.R. Rahman for working with Singapore musicians. In social media posts made on June 2, Mr Tharman uploaded photos of himself meeting the Grammy-, Oscar- and Golden Globe-winning music and film icon popularly known as 'ARR'. Rahman, 58, was in town on the weekend of May 10 and 11 for the premiere of Le Musk, a multi-sensory virtual reality (VR) film he directed that is screening at Golden Village Suntec City until Aug 12. 'Our Indian music and cultural talents, from classical to the most contemporary and edgy, are naturally a minority in the local scene. But they make Singapore's multiculturalism all the more special,' President Tharman wrote. 'ARR has also done our own talents good over the years, by giving them valuable exposure,' he added, listing the home-grown acts who have worked with Rahman - rapper-songwriter duo Lady Kash and Krissy, singer-musician Shabir and rapper Yung Raja. Rahman's collaborations include Wanna Mash Up?, song with Lady Kash and Krissy for the 2014 Hindi film Highway. President Tharman Shanmugaratnam praised A.R. Rahman for working with Singapore musicians. PHOTO: THARMAN SHANMUGARATNAM/INSTAGRAM Mr Tharman added that Singapore was the first place that Rahman, who was born in Madras, Tamil Nadu, travelled to out of India in the 1980s, and how the musician bought his equipment from local music stores Swee Lee and City Music. 'Good to see that both local music stores are still going strong after all these years,' Mr Tharman wrote. Rahman is a prolific musician, composer and singer whose works span more than160 film soundtracks and albums. Incorporating Indian classical with contemporary Western, his music famously transcended Tamil, Hindi and Telugu films, and made a mark in Hollywood, the West End and Broadway. He gained global fame when his soundtrack to the Mumbai-set British film Slumdog Millionaire (2008) earned him Oscars for Best Original Score and Best Original Song (for the upbeat number Jai Ho) at the 2009 Academy Awards. The crime drama romance, which starred Dev Patel and Freida Pinto, also won Rahman Best Compilation Soundtrack Album and Best Song Written for Visual Media at the 2010 Grammy Awards. Le Musk, a 37-minute film that marks his directorial debut, uses pioneering camera technologies to present an immersive film that blends virtual reality, haptics, music and fragrance. Screened exclusively at GV Suntec, viewers wear VR headsets and sit in special egg-shaped chairs that release scents. Rahman has staged several concerts in Singapore, most recently at the National Stadium on Aug 31, 2024. He also performed at Gardens by the Bay in 2014, the Singapore Indoor Stadium in 2005, as well as four shows at Marina Bay Sands in 2011.
