Reacting to the video, a fan wrote, 'Nice one Seb! Spa up next!' Another said, 'Now at Spa and Le Mans.' A third reacted, 'MEGA!' One fan commented, 'Congrats to Buemi. He needed this the most. Especially after a long streak of bad luck. Enjoy it. A win in Monaco is the best win. Former Champ.' Another called his jump 'Falling with style' in the comments section.
Buemi had waited as long as 78 races to get his much-awaited win at the Monaco E-Prix double header. This marks his third win in Monaco, after previously winning twice consecutively in 2015 and 2017—then racing for e.dams Renault.
He also made history by becoming the
Formula E
driver with the most career wins at 14, surpassing Lucas Di Grassi and Mitch Evans, who both have 13 career wins.

"Dulhan On Duty": Hina Khan's First Eid Feast As Bride Is Equal Parts Cute And Classy
Eid al-Adha had a little extra sparkle this year, thanks to newlywed Hina Khan. The television actress, who recently tied the knot with longtime boyfriend Rocky Jaiswal, gave fans a peek into her very first Eid celebration as a bride. On social media, Hina dropped some playful behind-the-scenes moments from her Eid prep. In one Instagram Story, she is seen sitting on a couch with two perfectly plated trays of cucumber and carrot slices. No glam team in sight, just "Dulhan (bride) on Duty," as she called herself with a smile. "Eid lunch preps," she wrote. Honestly, the healthiest Eid starter we have seen in a while. In another Story, she gave fans a glimpse of the table setup, and let's just say, Pinterest wishes it looked this good. A long dining table dressed in white and gold cutlery, regal royal blue chairs, and those crystal-clear glasses that scream fine dining at home. Eid vibes were high, and presentation? On point. "Eid Mubarak," she added a sticker. This celebration carries extra emotion for Hina, who is currently in remission after being diagnosed with stage 3 breast cancer. Flashback to Ramadan earlier this year, and Hina's foodie side was already shining through. On March 3, she shared a fun clip with her cousin Manaan Meer, casually munching on chips and sipping tea during Sehri. The overlay read, " Yeh humari masjid ki azaan nahi hai" (This is not the Azaan from our mosque), classic sibling humour. Cut to Iftaar: the duo switch to a healthier spread of dates and fruits, with Hina writing, " Azaan toh azaan hoti hai, chahe kissi bhi masjid ka ho" (Azaan is Azaan, no matter which mosque it's from). View this post on Instagram A post shared by ???????????????? ???????????????? (@realhinakhan) She also shared a carousel during Ramadan, showing her table full of dates, pakoras, fruits, and chilled drinks, food straight out of a homey Eid dream. Her mother even made a cameo in a few pictures. "Ramadan Mubarak. Kaisi lag rahi hoon? (How do I look?)" she asked fans. " Sehri se iftaari tak ka khoobsurat safar. (The beautiful journey from Sehri to Iftari). Alhamdullilah. Dua mai yaad rakhiyega (Remember me in your prayers)," she said. View this post on Instagram A post shared by ???????????????? ???????????????? (@realhinakhan) Hina Khan's journey through this year's holy season has been nothing short of beautiful.

Is Kris Jenner's age-defying look AI-manipulated? A plastic surgeon claims so
has been making headlines - not for any drama- but her age-defying facelift, which is hailed as a jaw-dropping transformation. However, a renowned plastic surgeon has raised his eyebrow and has claimed that the look is morphed with AI to create unrealistic expectations, because these are not normal results. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now 'What did Kris Jenner do, and when can I get an appointment?' According to the Daily Mail, when the 'momager' appeared in Paris in the previous month, she sent shockwaves through the internet with her mind-blowing face transformation, where the netizens claimed she now looked 20 years younger. The question that surfaced everywhere was: 'What did Kris Jenner do, and when can I get an appointment?' Kris Jenner's surgery is... AI-manipulated? The 69-year-old's representatives later confirmed that she had taken an appointment with New York's surgeon, Dr Steven M Levine, to get the magical look. However, an Instagram post has been going viral with more than 692,000 views, where another plastic surgeon, Dr Gary Lawton, stated that Kris Jenner's pictures have been tainted with AI tools and morphing software to achieve the unrealistic look in pictures and videos. The San Antonio-based plastic surgeon showcased the 'Keeping Up with the Kardashians' star and said that the look defies all the surgical and anatomical realities. Lawton, who is known to debunk beauty trends and offer practical advice, said, 'There is no possible way that this is a surgical transformation.' What did Dr Lawton say? 'The problem is that people have seen her in person. If you look at the images, there is no possible way this is a surgical transformation,' he said before giving an anatomy for her impossible surgical procedure. 'That kind of extensive restructuring, the precise symmetrical, idealised geometry suggests digital manipulation, AI-generated or heavily retouched images,' he added, before concluding, 'Neither mid-facelifts or fillers can produce this kind of flawless surface, devoid of any subtle depressions or textural inconsistencies.'

Aussie man's beach snack ambushed by stray cows, netizens react: ‘You should have fed them'
A video shared by Andy Evans, an Australian man who has been living in India for some time, has gone viral. Posted on Instagram by Evans, better known as 'Aussie Bhai' on Instagram, the viral video captures a beachside moment that quickly turns from relaxing to hilariously unexpected after a herd of cattle invades the beach. The video begins with Evans lounging on a beach, enjoying the sun with a plate of fried rice. For a brief moment, everything seems peaceful until a stray cow suddenly enters the frame, ambushing his plate. As the video progresses, more cows casually wander around the beach among several humans chilling. The highlight of the viral reel, and what truly won over social media users, was the behaviour of the first cow. As Evans instinctively pulls his plate closer and calmly warns the cow to stay back, the animal surprisingly obeys and leaves the scene. The moment highlighting the calm composure of the animal ignited hilarious reactions, while many criticised Evans for not feeding it. Sharing the video, Evans wrote, 'When you thought you finally found a peaceful location in India.' Watch here: A post shared by Aussie Bhai | Andy Evans (@theaussiebhai) The video amassed nearly three million views, prompting a 'Like' from internet sensation Orry. Several users commented on the video, with one saying, 'Bro brought his friends too, he got embarrassed in front of his friends.' Another user commented, 'Bro don't mess with them you never know who they might come back with.' 'Such a beautiful creature, asked for food, denied, didn't force themselves on them even though they could've taken their food, and left, unlike humans who exploit everyone who they can,' a third user reacted. 'You should have fed him,' a fourth user said.
