Dua Lipa, 300 UK public figures urge Westminister to end Israel arms sales - War on Gaza
Pop star Dua Lipa joined some 300 UK celebrities in signing an open letter Thursday urging Britain to halt arms sales to Israel, after similar pleas from lawyers and writers. Actors, musicians, activists and other public figures wrote the letter calling on Prime Minister Keir Starmer to "end the UK's complicity in the horrors in Gaza". British-Albanian pop sensation Dua Lipa has been vocal about the war in Gaza and last year criticised Israel's war as a "genocide". Other signatories include actors Benedict Cumberbatch, Tilda Swinton and Riz Ahmed, and musicians Paloma Faith, Annie Lennox and Massive Attack. "You can't call it 'intolerable' and keep sending arms," read the letter to Labour leader Starmer organised by Choose Love, a UK-based humanitarian aid and refugee advocacy charity. Sports broadcaster Gary Lineker, who stepped down from his role at the BBC after a social media post that contained anti-Semitic imagery, also signed the letter. Signatories urged the UK to ensure "full humanitarian access across Gaza", broker an "immediate and permanent ceasefire", and "immediately suspend" all arms sales to Israel. "The children of Gaza cannot wait another minute. Prime Minister, what will you choose? Complicity in war crimes, or the courage to act?", the letter continued. Earlier this month, Starmer slammed Israel's "egregious" renewed military offensive in Gaza and promised to take "further concrete actions" if it did not stop -- without detailing what the actions could be. Last September the UK government suspended 30 out of 350 arms export licenses to Israel, saying there was a "clear risk" they could be used to breach humanitarian law. Global outrage has grown after Israel ended a ceasefire in March and stepped up military assaults this month, killing thousands of people in a span of two months. The humanitarian situation has also sparked alarm and fears of starvation after a two-month blockade on aid entering the devastated territory. Over 800 UK lawyers including Supreme Court justices, and some 380 British and Irish writers warned of Israel committing a "genocide" in Gaza in open letters this week. Israel's military has killed 54,084 Palestinians in Gaza, displaced nearly the entire population and ravaged swathes of the besieged strip. Follow us on: Facebook Instagram Whatsapp Short link:

Demi Lovato Marries Jordan 'Jutes' Lutes in Romantic Ceremony
Yara Sameh Demi Lovato and her partner, Jordan "Jutes" Lutes tied the knot in a romantic ceremony in California on Sunday. For her walk down the aisle, Lovato donned a custom "pearl white" Vivenne Westwood gown with a corset bodice and a cathedral-style tulle veil. "I have been a fan of Vivienne Westwood's designs for a long time,' she told Vogue . 'When I was thinking about [what dress style I wanted], I often found myself coming back to Vivienne's designs — specifically how the silhouettes really complement the curves in your body, and her use of corsets,' she added. Lovato, who collaborated with the Westwood team on the design, gushed, 'I love everything about the dress." As for the reception, she wore into a second Westwood look, an ivory silk satin column dress with a draped corset top, per Vogue. The design featured broken pearls trailing from the neckline. "It's a one-of-a-kind piece that makes me feel so special," the singer said. According to the outlet, the newlyweds hosted a rehearsal dinner on the eve of their wedding. After a run-through of their ceremony, overseen by celebrity event planner Mindy Weiss, the group enjoyed an intimate meal. Ahead of their wedding, Lovato expressed her excitement to marry Jutes via a sweet post on Instagram on February 14. "Jordan, I cannot WAIT to marry you!! The past 3 years have been the best 3 years of my life and I have you to thank for that," she wrote alongside sweet photos of them posing together next to a vintage Porsche. "I'm obsessed with your heart, your love and your light. I can't wait to grow old with you and start a family together 🥹🥹 Happy Valentine's Day to the love of my life. I love you honey!!!". Lovato and Jutes met during a writing session for Lovato's album "Holy Fvck" and went public with their romance in August 2022. Jutes popped the question in a 'personal and intimate proposal' in Los Angeles on December 16, 2023. "You know, I've waited my whole life for him," Lovato told PEOPLE in September 2024. "It's very grounding to have a partner that is so supportive, so loving, so caring. It's very easy to stay centered with him because I love him so much and he treats me so amazing." However, the couple didn't rush tying the knot. Jutes revealed to the outlet in October 2024 that they didn't want to worry about wedding planning. "We're not trying to stress ourselves out,' he said. 'I feel like a lot of weddings can be stressful and very quick, and so we're on it, but we're also taking our time, and we're also just enjoying being engaged.' "We're not trying to skip engagement to get right to wedding," he added. "We're just basking in it and soaking it up. We'll be married forever. We just want to enjoy every step." During a September 2023 appearance on the PodcastOne podcast LadyGang, Lovato opened up about her first interaction with Jutes while they worked on her eighth studio album. "I texted my friends and was like, 'Oh my God, the hottest guy just walked in. I am so nervous. I don't know what to do with myself,' " she said. The singer noted that it took 'a couple months' for them to become romantically involved. Their collaboration resulted in Jutes co-writing Lovato's tracks "Substance," "Happy Ending," and "City of Angels." In August 2023, he gushed about the singer's talents and their romance in an Instagram tribute written in honor of Lovato's birthday. 'Your heart has changed lives all over the planet… especially some dude from a farm in canada who wound up in your session over a year ago,' Jutes wrote. 'I didn't know the perfect person existed until i met u. but now that i do, i'm gunna spend the rest of my life protecting u and doing whatever i can to squeeze another smile n belly laugh outta u. i couldn't be more proud to call u my baby.' Lovato got candid about what makes their relationship work during an appearance on SiriusXM's The Howard Stern Show in September 2023. 'He has the best personality. We laugh nonstop,' she said. 'There's this partnership there that is just so magnetic, and the way that we laugh together — it's just nonstop. So I think if you can find someone that makes you feel safe, that you're so attracted to, that you laugh with constantly, that's the formula of a really great relationship.' read more New Tourism Route To Launch in Old Cairo Ahmed El Sakka-Led Play 'Sayidati Al Jamila' to Be Staged in KSA on Dec. 6 Mandy Moore Joins Season 2 of "Dr. Death" Anthology Series Don't Miss These Movies at 44th Cairo Int'l Film Festival Today Amr Diab to Headline KSA's MDLBEAST Soundstorm 2022 Festival Arts & Culture Mai Omar Stuns in Latest Instagram Photos Arts & Culture "The Flash" to End with Season 9 Arts & Culture Ministry of Culture Organizes four day Children's Film Festival Arts & Culture Canadian PM wishes Muslims Eid-al-Adha News Egypt confirms denial of airspace access to US B-52 bombers News Ayat Khaddoura's Final Video Captures Bombardment of Beit Lahia News Australia Fines Telegram $600,000 Over Terrorism, Child Abuse Content Arts & Culture Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban's $4.7M LA Home Burglarized Sports Former Al Zamalek Player Ibrahim Shika Passes away after Long Battle with Cancer Sports Neymar Announced for Brazil's Preliminary List for 2026 FIFA World Cup Qualifiers News Prime Minister Moustafa Madbouly Inaugurates Two Indian Companies Arts & Culture New Archaeological Discovery from 26th Dynasty Uncovered in Karnak Temple Business Fear & Greed Index Plummets to Lowest Level Ever Recorded amid Global Trade War Arts & Culture Zahi Hawass: Claims of Columns Beneath the Pyramid of Khafre Are Lies

Here are five reasons to get excited and hit the theatres: ● It's a heart-eyed slasher! Seriously, how often do we get such a uniquely twisted blend? As gore is romantically offset by witty quips and one-liners, the film is sure to offer viewers a night to remember. ● An eerily original story: For the past several years, the 'Heart Eyes Killer' has wreaked havoc on Valentine's Day by stalking and murdering romantic couples. This Valentine's Day, no couple is safe.

Workman (TEEN WOLF). Get ready to brandish those emojis to your own heart's content, as you post about your experience watching HEART EYES — an all-new slasher in cinemas across Egypt starting May 7th.
