Pizzeria Sei was just named the country's second-best pizza joint
Two other Southern California pizzerias also made 50 Top Pizza's annual USA list: Nardò in Huntington Beach (which also has a satellite location in Culver City), ranked 24th in the nation, and Dana Point's Truly Pizza, which came in at No. 9 and thus made the top 10. Both Pizzeria Sei and Truly Pizza were also recently recognized at the international Best Pizza Awards. To determine its regional rankings—a recent ranking also dropped for all of Europe —the 50 Top Pizza judges use anonymous inspectors to sample pizzerias across the globe in search of high-quality dough, toppings, service and overall experience.
While a national guide naturally isn't as competitive as an international list of rankings, it's still pretty darn difficult to receive recognition in a country full of unique regional pizza styles. We're talking New Haven-style, Detroit-style, Chicago-style and, of course, New York-style. On that note, the top spot on the list went to Una Pizza Napoletana in New York City. Once again, congratulations to Pizzeria Sei, Truly Pizza and Nardò!

Austin Butler thought he was 'dying' after going blind temporarily... and reveals what caused it
Austin Butler has detailed the scary moment that he believed he could be dying. The 34-year-old Oscar nominee - who recently showcased his incredible figure - had suffered temporary blindness while taking a flight to Chicago to film 2023 movie The Bikeriders. He said while on the plane he was 'jolted awake' with a rough migraine just as the aircraft was about to land. 'It felt like the life was being sucked from my body,' Austin told Men's Health. 'I suddenly felt a euphoric sensation, and I actually genuinely thought I was dying.' Austin said that he had gone temporarily blind for several minutes but he 'willed' his sight to come back and after her toughed it out he figured it was a 'side effect of sleep deprivation.' A retinal migraine is a rare type of migraine that can cause visual symptoms in one eye and most attacks are short-lived. This came as he laid bare the saucy secrets behind the process of transforming into an alcoholic ex-baseball player for his new movie Caught Stealing. Directed by Darren Aronofsky, the film stars Austin as athlete-turned-bartender Hank Thompson, who becomes enmeshed in crime in 1990s New York. In order to attain the physique of an erstwhile sportsman, the 6'0" actor embarked on a diet and workout regimen that propelled him from 150lbs to 185lbs. Now, the sex symbol has revealed that there was a particular body part where Darren especially wanted him to add bulk. 'I actually have a whole section of just baseball players' a**es that he would send me,' Austin dished to Men's Health. 'He was like: "Look how thick they are!"' His meal plans helped him develop a figure that fit his character's dissolute lifestyle - generous helpings of pizza washed down with beer. Although he indulged in alcohol for the job, he shared: 'Drinking has never been my thing. I don't like the way it makes me feel.' Beth Lewis, who prepared Hugh Jackman for Deadpool & Wolverine and has worked on other films like London Has Fallen, was Austin's trainer for Caught Stealing. What is a retinal migraine? A retinal migraine is a rare condition that usually affects people who also have other symptoms of migraine. Retinal migraine involves repeated bouts of short-lasting partial vision loss, such as blind spots. These bouts may happen before or during the headache. A retinal migraine — unlike a migraine with aura — affects only one eye, not both. But usually vision changes that affect only one eye aren't related to a retinal migraine. Vision changes in one eye can be caused by more-serious conditions that need treatment. See a healthcare professional right away if you have visual symptoms that haven't been looked at before, such as: Visual changes in only one eye. Visual changes that last less than five minutes or more than 60 minutes. Visual changes without a headache. New headaches or new visual changes. Headaches or visual changes that begin after age 50. New weakness on one side of the body or speech changes. These symptoms may suggest a more serious cause of your visual symptoms and need medical attention. According to The Mayo Clinic The exercise routines she put together for him included 'a ton of hip thrusters,' which enabled him to build up his derriere to the extent required. However his new curves came with a downside, as he confessed: 'I've got a whole section of Celine pants that I just can't even wear anymore.' When he and the Black Swan director first began to discuss working together on Caught Stealing, Austin was particularly slender because he was in the midst of awards season and his nerves occasionally made him forget to eat. Austin has put himself through a variety of different diets for roles, including the doughnuts and molten ice cream he consumed for his Oscar-nominated turn as the King of Rock 'n' Roll in the 2022 biopic Elvis. His eating habits were quite different for his upcoming part as a hitman in the A24 thriller Enemies, opposite The Bear star Jeremy Allen White as a detective. For Enemies, he pursued the goal of a sculpted figure by relying on protein - chicken kebab, omelets and steak - and exercising seven days a week. The musclebound physique he had in Dune: Part Two came with the help of Navy Seal-turned-trainer Duffy Gaver, who has worked with a string of top-flight names including Chris Hemsworth, Chris Pratt, Channing Tatum and Brad Pitt.

'I remember him telling me: "Chicken, broccoli, brown rice, and lift, motherf***ers."' Despite his dedication, Austin is not above indulging in a cheat meal, which for him means: 'French toast, pancakes, pizza, and pasta, all at the same time.' With a formidable cast including Zoe Kravitz, Regina King, Bad Bunny, Matt Smith and Liev Schreiber, Caught Stealing is slated for release next Friday, August 29.

Orlando Bloom: I want Johnny Depp in new Pirates of the Caribbean
Orlando Bloom has welcomed the idea of Johnny Depp returning to the Pirates of Caribbean franchise after his Hollywood cancellation. Depp was embroiled in a series of legal disputes with Amber Heard, his ex-wife, involving accusations of abuse on both sides. Heard's allegation against Depp, which he denied, led to him being ostracised by the film industry and he was dropped by Fantastic Beasts, the Harry Potter prequel film series. Bloom, his former co-star, has now suggested he should reprise his role in future Pirates of the Caribbean films. Speaking at the Fan Expo Chicago about the possibility of the franchise continuing with its original cast, he said: 'I would personally love to see everybody back. 'I think the way to win on that one is to get everybody back. If they can, and if everybody wanted to go back.' Bloom and Keira Knightley's Elizabeth Swann appeared in Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl (2003), Dead Man's Chest (2006), At World's End (2007) and Dead Men Tell No Tales (2017), with both skipping 2011's On Stranger Tides. There had been talk of a female-led, spin-off of Pirates of the Caribbean with Margot Robbie in a central role similar to Depp's part of the unstable pirate, Jack Sparrow. The project was abandoned, leading to talk that the original series could simply be continued, something the producer himself, Jerry Bruckheimer, has suggested. He said he had spoken to Depp about the possibility of reprising the role of Jack Sparrow, telling Entertainment Weekly: 'If he likes the way the part's written, I think he would do it.' A return to such a global franchise would mark a definitive end to Depp's ostracism, which he described to The Telegraph this year as feeling 'shunned, dumped, booted, deep-sixed, cancelled'. The trouble stemmed from Depp's marriage to Heard in 2015, a union that ended a year later. Heard claimed that Depp had abused her physically, leading to a Sun column in which Depp was labelled a 'wife-beater'. Depp sued, and a judge ruled against him. In 2022, Depp won a $15m (£11.3m) defamation suit against Heard over a column she had written in 2018 about violence in their relationship. Depp's damages were later reduced to $10.35m and Heard was also awarded $2m for her defamation counterclaim. Following that victory, Depp appeared at the Cannes film festival in 2023 to promote Jeanne du Barry, a French-language historical drama. He has also been pictured with long, grey hair in filming for his Hollywood return in 'Day Drinker', where he stars alongside Penelope Cruz as a mysterious guest on a private yacht who finds himself entangled with a criminal. The film is directed by Marc Webb, whose previous films include 500 Days of Summer, The Amazing Spider-Man and recent box office flop Snow White. Depp has also recently directed Modi, Three Days on the Wing of Madness, based on the life of Italian artist Amedeo Modigliani, which received a lukewarm reception from critics.

Hailey Bieber looks effortlessly stylish in a bandeau top as she catches up with Kendall Jenner and friends
looked effortlessly stylish as she headed out with friends in Los Angeles on Wednesday. The model, 28, was joined by her close pal Kendall Jenner, 29, with the pair catching up before getting lunch at San Vicente Bungalows. Hailey wore white crop top with a pair of dark blue barrel jeans, heeled sandals and oval sunglasses. Kendall looked chic in a charcoal grey fitted midi dress which she teamed with a pair of heeled sandals. She completed her outfit with a tan leather handbag, before pulling her hair back into a sleek bun and adding sunglasses. Joining a group of their friends, the girls went shopping in Brentwood and picked up ice coffees. It comes after Justin left fans delighted on Saturday as the pop star shared a rare photo of himself with his wife Hailey's BFF Kendall to Instagram. In the candid snap — which was taken during Bieber's recent hangout at a low-key LA dive bar on Thursday night — the singer listened intently to the model while seated on a stool with what looked to be a beer glass in his hand. Kendall, donning a plunging black crop top and white jeans, looked animated as she spoke into Justin's ear in the dimly-lit photo. Justin and Kendall have been pals for over a decade and even faced dating rumors prior to the singer's relationship with Hailey, who he married in 2018. After the Baby hitmaker shared the photo on Instagram, Hailey left a quip directed towards her model bestie that received over 65,000 likes from fans. 'It's always Kendall telling a story with her hands,' the Rhode skincare founder joked. In response, Kendall wrote: 'God forbid I'm a visual storyteller.' Hours after the exchange in the comment section, Justin decided to upload a rare photo of himself and Hailey from Thursday's bar get together. The cover photo of his carousel post was of him and Hailey cheesing as they sat beside each other on a couch in the same dive bar. In the snapshot, the pair coordinated in casual-chic attires, wearing tank tops as they enjoyed a summer night out with their pals. Hailey also left another quick-witted comment underneath her husband's post and wrote: 'Secret's out we're dating!' Justin also shared a photo of himself goofing off with his friends as he tried out a pair of glasses that didn't appear to be his as he stuck out his tongue and posed alongside his musical collaborator Carter Lang. Rounding out his post, he also shared a snapshot of him sitting between his buddies as he flashed a big smile. Recapping their night out, Justin shared photos of his daytime activities in addition to their dive bar excursion. Following the adorable snapshot of him and Hailey, he shared a picture of himself jamming with his friends while wearing nothing else but a pair of boxer briefs, socks and a straw hat. He also shared a photo of him walking their Yorkie in southern California. After the sunset, he took his dog out into a parking lot for a quick break. While walking his dog, he also showed off his edgy sense of style, pairing a black tank top with cutoff shorts and bright pink sneakers. Earlier this week, Justin posted a loved-up Instagram album that included pictures of him and his wife Hailey snuggling up to each other and lounging side by side on picnic blankets. The couple, who tied the knot in September 2018, looked blissfully happy in several images as they spent time outdoors. His frequent posts come shortly after he released his surprise seventh studio album, SWAG, to critical acclaim on July 11. Several songs make mention of his public persona, personal struggles, and his commitment to his wife Hailey and their nearly one-year-old baby son Jack Blues Bieber. The album also appears to allude to a challenging time between the couple after months of marriage rumors and fan concern for the A-list couple. Ahead of the album's release, Hailey had some choice words for their fans as she took to social media to promote it. She took aim at the 'losers' who've speculated about their relationship as she re-posted a photo of Justin's massive Swag billboard in NYC's Times Square, captioned: 'Is it finally clocking to you f***ing losers?' She appeared to suggest that Justin's recent bizarre behavior wasn't the result of any marriage troubles but due to him being hard at work on his long-awaited music, which he partially recorded in Iceland back in April.
