Controversial 'it girl' shocks fans with unrecognizable new look while filming TV legal drama
She has never shied away from making a wild, scantily-clad fashion statement. But Julia Fox 's latest look is certain to shock fans for an entirely different reason. Kanye West's ex looked completely unrecognizable as she filmed her latest project in a surprisingly ordinary outfit. Julia, 35, was spotted shooting a new episode of the CBS legal drama Elsbeth in New York City on Thursday, in which she plays Raquel Drabowski, a 'grief influencer', according to Variety. The network describes her character as a 'Staten Island widow who transformed herself into an upscale NYC "Grief Influencer" and reality star on the hit dating series "Black Veil."' Julia wore a sophisticated, midnight blue suit with a crisp white neckline and black heels. Her hair was styled down in long, loose waves while her complexion was accentuated with a smoky coat of eye shadow and blush. Julia, who is known for her eccentric and bold outfits, rose to fame after briefly dating Kanye West. Julia reflected on the high-profile split, while making an on CBS Mornings with Vito Schnabel, her co-star on The Trainers. 'I was going through a lot during that time. I was coming off of, like, a very public breakup. It was horrible,' Fox lamented to Gayle King. 'And I just wanted to go to work and be able to just be somebody else. I loved being her. I feel like I have so much in common with her in terms of you know being, like, overlooked or not taken seriously or just dismissed. 'And I feel like that's why our characters kind of just, like, had this unique love story.' Meanwhile, audiences can next catch Julia as the seductive Elsie White in Justin Tipping's NFL satanic horror film HIM - hitting US theaters September 19 and UK cinemas October 3 - produced by Jordan Peele. The Down the Drain singer has also been hard at work producing and judging the second season of her design competition OMG Fashun, but Peacock postponed the May release 'due to unexpected delays' but it's 'still in active production.' On the personal front, the 360 video vixen has primary custody of her four-year-old son Valentino from her three-year marriage to Brooklyn private pilot Peter Artemiev, which ended in 2022.

Battlefield 6 will 'boot stomp' Call of Duty this year, says former Activision-Blizzard boss
Gaming 'The real win here is CoD won't be lazy anymore, and we'll all get better FPS games for it' Skip 1 photos in the image carousel and continue reading Battlefield 6 has been inviting many excited virtual soldiers aboard its hype train lately, having leaked earlier in July before going public with an official reveal trailer and two open betas. It's too early to tell whether this is Battlefield back to its former glory after a muted response to 2021's Battlefield 2042 – or is it? Former Activision-Blizzard president Mike Ybarra doesn't seem to think so. He recently tweeted that Battlefield 6 will 'boot stomp' Call of Duty this year. Advertisement - Page continues below ' CoD has gone downhill for years since then,' Ybarra added. 'It's a mess.' It's not unusual to hear somebody badmouthing CoD on social media, but when the criticism comes from the former head of the publisher who creates the games, the words carry a bit more weight. Ybarra had been with Activision-Blizzard since 2019, and announced that he was leaving in January 2024, shortly after Microsoft's blockbuster acquisition of the company. During his time there, Activision-Blizzard released five Call of Duty titles. You might like Ybarra's assertion is that the series hasn't faced serious competition elsewhere lately, and that's made the likes of Soap and Captain Price complacent. A truly good Battlefield title might light a fire under the numerous studios who develop CoD titles and, in time, raise the bar for the whole military shooter genre. Or, as Ybarra puts it: ' CoD will get better because BF will be great. You're blind if you don't see that. Bitter? No, glad I'm not part of the end of Xbox. Upset they can't lead teams to make good games? Yes. Because they layoff all those people for leaderships mishaps.' Advertisement - Page continues below As Ybarra extends his kill-streak against Activision-Blizzard's PR, it's worth reflecting that we don't actually know whether Battlefield 6 will be great, nor do we know what Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 will be like this year. In fact the only certainty is that TG will spend no small part of this autumn getting absolutely taken apart by children with prodigious twitch-aim skills and maxed out mic volume in both titles.

Fans are convinced Travis Kelce's outfit is a nod to girlfriend Taylor Swift as he arrives for first NFL game since podcast broke the internet
Travis Kelce appeared to make a sweet nod to his girlfriend Taylor Swift with his bold outfit choice for the Chiefs-Seahawks preseason game on Friday night. Kansas City traveled to Seattle for another tune-up ahead of the 2025 season, and Kelce was front and center of the group - just days after he and his girlfriend broke the internet. Swift appeared on Kelce's podcast on Wednesday to announce her new album - The Life of a Showgirl - with its orange color scheme, as 1.3million tuned in live to take in the two-hour episode. And Kelce was seemingly repping those same colors on Friday, as he donned a striped orange and green polo for his arrival at the Seahawks' stadium. He paired the stylish look with some brown pants and white trainers, while carrying a similar-colored brown bag and wearing a white cap. Swifties - perhaps unsurprisingly - didn't take long to spot the color scheme, and quickly took to the comments section of the Chiefs' Instagram page to share their thoughts. Swift revealed the details of her new album alongside her man on his New Heights podcast 'TS12 colors', one wrote, while another added: 'The orange and green hehe' The Chiefs themselves leaned into the Swift references by calling Kelce 'our human exclamation point' in the caption, a reference to how the popstar labeled her man on the New Heights podcast. The live airing of the episode on YouTube earlier this week quite literally broke the internet, with the stream going down towards the end of the show. It took YouTube over three hours to fix the issue, before they quietly uploaded the final 20 minutes of the chat between Swift and the Kelce brothers. Kelce and Swift are perhaps the most famous couple in the world; they are pictured in NYC After the madness of the episode, and his GQ cover shoot reveal, attention for Travis now returns to the NFL and the new Chiefs season. Although the tight end is not expected to suit up for the preseason game in Seattle, he traveled with the team to support the players on Andy Reid's roster. Going into the 2025 campaign, the Chiefs will once again be one of the favorites to lift the Lombardi Trophy, as they bid to overcome Super Bowl heartbreak.
