Lando Norris under fire for sexist Twitch comment after Hungarian Grand Prix win

McLaren's Lando Norris celebrates after qualifying in pole position in the Formula One Australian Grand Prix Qualifying at Albert Park Grand Prix Circuit in Melbourne on March 15. PHOTO: REUTERS Formula 1 star Lando Norris is facing backlash after making a sexist remark during a Twitch stream, sparking disappointment from fans who previously praised him for his feminist stance. The controversy follows his recent victory at the 2025 Hungarian Grand Prix, adding to the public scrutiny. The comment came during a stream hosted by British motorsport driver Max Fewtrell, where Norris, using a private account under the handle "undercoverbobinski", remarked in the chat, 'they in the right part of the house tbh,' referring to Fewtrell's girlfriend and her friend being in the kitchen. A screenshot of the message quickly went viral, prompting widespread criticism. Many users labeled the comment as misogynistic and out of step with Norris's previously progressive image. lando norris talking about how women should be in the kitchen brother you are about to deliver a generational stinker so bad you'll be flipping burgers too by the end of it — maheen (@rosberggs) August 3, 2025 Fans expressed outrage online. One user on X (formerly Twitter) wrote, 'Lando Norris talking about how women should be in the kitchen… brother, you're about to deliver a generational stinker so bad you'll be flipping burgers too.' Another added, 'F1 Twitter acting surprised that Lando Norris is a misogynist... his entire persona reeks of performative feminism.'

The victory was seen as a highlight of his 2025 season, but the timing of the controversy has overshadowed the celebration. As of now, Norris has not issued a public response. Fans remain divided, with many questioning the authenticity of his previously held image as one of the more progressive figures in Formula 1.

Theatrical production breaks convention

The cast of the '4.48 Psychosis' play thanks the audience after delivering a powerful performance which broke theatrical norms through emotionally charged, physically intense portrayals that collapsed the space between audience and actor at The Black Hole in the federal capital. PHOTO: EXPRESS Islamabad-based theatre collective Qissa Khwani Theatrics has staged Pakistan's first and only translation and performance of 4.48 Psychosis — the final, most harrowing work by British playwright Sarah Kane, widely interpreted as her theatrical suicide note. Written shortly before her death in 1999, the play confronts the audience with unfiltered expressions of despair, psychosis and identity collapse. The production is directed by Ahmad Umar Ayaz, who holds a master's degree in modern Drama from the University of Edinburgh and is produced by Abdul Basit Mushtaq and Sundas Tanveer. The staging immerses the viewer in Kane's broken and poetic world — a space where logic dissolves and suffering takes centre stage. Inspired by Antonin Artaud's Theatre of Cruelty, the play does not seek catharsis or comfort - it demands confrontation, provocation and an unflinching encounter with pain. Starring Muhammad Arslan and Saim Raza, both trained at NAPA, the performance breaks theatrical norms with emotionally charged, physically intense portrayals that collapse the space between audience and actor. There is no safety, no detachment. Language cuts. Silence suffocates. Performed at The Black Hole in Islamabad, the venue is transformed into a psychological environment where the boundaries of theatre are ruptured. No stage. No curtain. No barrier. Just raw human presence and the unbearable weight of being. Qissa Khwani Theatrics is a bold, independent collective working to revive and redefine theatre in Pakistan, where the cultural infrastructure for experimental or political theatre is nearly non-existent. In an environment where mainstream entertainment dominates and public arts spaces are few, the group has made it its mission to build space for critical, courageous storytelling — using theatre as a medium to provoke thought, resistance and collective reflection. With this landmark production, they bring Sarah Kane's voice to Pakistan for the first time - unfiltered, unsoftened and impossible to ignore.

Florence Pugh and 'Peaky Blinders' star Finn Cole stir rumor mill with engagement speculation

Oscar-nominated actress Florence Pugh is reportedly engaged to Peaky Blinders actor Finn Cole after quietly dating for the past year. According to The Sun, the pair, both 29, have been growing closer out of the public eye and are now planning to marry. Though Pugh and Cole have never officially confirmed their relationship, speculation first emerged in September 2023 after the two were seen leaving the after-party for the London premiere of The Perfect Couple together. A source told The Sun, 'Finn and Florence have been in a bubble getting to know each other away from the spotlight... They've found something special between them.' While Pugh has not named Cole directly, she acknowledged being in a relationship during an October 2023 interview with Vogue, where she described herself as 'very much in love.' She also shared that she is approaching her current romance differently than past relationships, saying she's taking things slowly and allowing the connection to develop naturally. Cole, best known for his role as Michael Gray in Peaky Blinders, made a quiet appearance alongside Pugh at the premiere of her Marvel film Thunderbolts, where he posed solo but later appeared in a group photo with Pugh's friends and family—fueling further speculation about their closeness. The pair have also been spotted together at events like Glastonbury Festival, and Pugh has shown public support for Cole's theatre work on Instagram. Prior to Cole, Pugh was in a long-term relationship with actor Zach Braff, which ended in 2022. She later dated photographer Charlie Gooch and was briefly linked to Harry Styles. Despite their efforts to remain private, Pugh's evolving relationship with Cole appears to be moving toward a more serious, long-term commitment.
