Laurence Fox wears ‘two tier' cap to court
Laurence Fox wore a 'two tier' cap as he arrived at court over a sexual offence. The former actor, 47, is accused of sharing a compromising photo on social media of TV presenter Narinder Kaur, who regularly appears on Good Morning Britain. The cap was Fox's second apparent reference during his trial to 'two-tier justice' – the claim that the criminal justice system treats different groups of people differently. He had arrived at court in April with a cap that read 'two-tier Britain'. He appeared at Woolwich Crown Court charged with two counts under the Sexual Offences Act 2003, while Ms Kaur, who has waived her right to anonymity, sat in the public gallery. The former actor is accused of sharing a photograph of a person's genitals 'intending that the person or another person would see the genitals, and for the purpose of obtaining sexual gratification, and being reckless as to whether that person would be caused alarm, distress or humiliation' in the first count. The second count alleges he shared a photograph which showed, or appeared to show, 'another person in an intimate state, with the intention of causing that person alarm, distress or humiliation'. The court hearing on Thursday was listed for plea and trial preparation. However, Fox, wearing a white shirt and grey blazer with jeans, was not asked to enter any pleas. A provisional trial, estimated to last four days, was set for Dec 6 2027 at the same court, with Fox granted bail to appear for a further case management hearing on Nov 14 this year. Sarah Forshaw KC, defending, asked the court if it would be possible to look at whether other venues may be able to accommodate an earlier trial because 'December 2027 is a long way ahead'. The police previously said Fox had been 'charged with an offence contrary to section 66A of the Sexual Offences Act 2003' which 'relates to an image that was posted on a social media platform in April 2024'. Section 66A of the Sexual Offences Act relates to 'cyber flashing'. The charge, introduced in 2023, makes it a criminal offence to intentionally share a sexual image of someone without consent, with the aim of causing alarm, distress, humiliation or for sexual gratification. Upskirting, which involves taking pictures of people under their clothes without their permission, became a specific criminal offence in 2019. Offenders can face up to two years in jail and be placed on the sex offenders register. Fox was fired from GB News in October 2023 after an on-air rant about Ava Evans, the political editor of the JOE news platform. Broaden your horizons with award-winning British journalism.

Fans of Quakertown's Sabrina Carpenter in awe of her bold new look; check out music video
Did Quakertown's Sabrina Carpenter just launch the song of the summer? The Grammy-winning 'Espresso' singer dropped the single 'Manchild' in this first week of June, accompanied by the music video. Music industry pundits and fans alike suggest the song is poised to take over Summer 2025 playlists. The song isn't the only thing expected to trend for the pop diva this summer. "Micro" shorts are officially making a comeback this summer after going away for a year or two, and it is all thanks to Carpenter. The Bucks County singer's new look, which consists of a white button-up, baby blue heels and denim cutoffs, continues to turn heads on social media. The discussion, mostly admiration, surrounding the outfit began June 2, when Carpenter posted a short clip of herself hitchhiking on the side of a highway. Carpenter later revealed that the video was tied to the release of "Manchild." "this one's about you!!" Carpenter wrote in a separate social media post. "'Manchild' is out this Thursday 6/5 (at) 8pm EST. special 7 (inch) vinyl available now." Here's what people are saying about Carpenter's look, including a look back at the "micro" short trend. Sabrina surprises on SNL: Bucks County's Sabrina Carpenter cameos on SNL musical monologue with host Quinta Brunson While Carpenter did not start the trend, she certainly revived it with her most recent social media post (And her fans are eating it up). Free People, on the other hand, did not see the same success when they promoted their own version of the "micro" denim shorts on social media in March 2024, about five months before Carpenter's "Short n' Sweet" album was released. Customers of the high-end retailer weighed in on the length of the shorts in the social media post's comments, joking about how the length of the shorts would not work for the average adult woman. "Everybody relax with these rude, aggressive comments. I bought them for my hamster and she loves them!' one user wrote. Those who chimed in bonded over their mutual dislike of the shorts. The response to Carpenter's outfit was completely different, with brands, fans and even haters showering her with compliments. "My brake pads would've popped off by how fast i would have stopped my car," one user wrote in the comments of her recent social media post. Carpenter, who has a penchant for all things glitter and lace, has been rocking babydoll negligees, blazer dresses without pants, corsets with garters, nightgowns, ballgowns, mini-skirts and of course hotpants even before the release of her sixth studio album "Short n' Sweet." "Femininity is something that I've always embraced," Carpenter told TIME in an October 2024 interview. "And if right now that means corsets and garter belts and fuzzy robes or whatever the (expletive), then that's what that means."

Quakertown's Sabrina Carpenter stirs controversy with provocative image; see new album cover
Quakertown's Sabrina Carpenter apparently isn't Please, Please, Pleasing all of her fanbase with what appears to be the cover of her forthcoming album. Following the release of her latest single "Manchild," the Grammy-winning pop princess revealed the title and release date for her new album, "Man's Best Friend," on her social media pages June 11. "My new album, 'Man's Best Friend' 🐾 is out on August 29, 2025," Carpenter, 26, wrote. "I can't wait for it to be yours x" The post also included an image of what appears to be the album's cover. The photo shows Carpenter, dressed in a black dress and high heels, kneeling on the ground in a dog-like pose while an unidentified individual stands off to the side and pulls her by the hair. "Man's Best Friend," Carpenter's seventh studio effort, follows the release of her breakthrough 2024 album "Short n' Sweet." The album, which peaked at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart, spawned the hit singles "Espresso," "Please Please Please," "Taste" and "Bed Chem," as well as solidified the singer's playful pin-up girl image. Carpenter first teased "Man's Best Friend" with the release of "Manchild" on June 5. The music video for the synth-pop track drew buzz on social media for Carpenter's bold look, which consisted of a white button-up, baby blue heels and denim "micro" album cover for "Man's Best Friend" set the comments section ablaze, with fans online chiming in with their hot takes on the provocative image. "Love (you) Sabrina but in this political climate with Trump as president and women's control over their bodies being taken away in the US… this is kind (of) insensitive," Instagram user @taylorrram wrote. "This just set us back about 5 decades," @uhhhlexa_ wrote, while user @mgracegunderson weighed in, "Excited for new music but this cover is a big no from me, dawg. In this political climate?? Girls, get up!" However, other fans welcomed Carpenter's daring imagery along with the announcement of new music. "SUMMER OF SABRINA FOR A SECOND YEAR IN A ROW," Instagram user @aislinndalston exclaimed. Big talk over micro shorts: Fans of Quakertown's Sabrina Carpenter in awe of her bold new look; check out music video "Sabrina is coming for album of the year, artist of the year, pop vocal album, all of it and I'm here for it 😍," @erik_osterberg wrote. Responding to some of the criticism aimed at Carpenter, X user @wickednewshub offered a more analytical view of the album artwork. "For those of you who may lack critical thinking skills, the cover is clearly satirical with a deeper meaning, portraying how the public views her, believing she is just for the male gaze," the user wrote. Carpenter channels sexual desire unapologetically in nearly every song from her most recent album "Short n' Sweet." On "Juno," a cheeky track about wanting to become pregnant because of how much she adores her partner, she croons: "Wanna try out some freaky positions?" The singer's tour performance of "Juno," in which she flaunted a sequined mini skirt and pantomimed a sex position while singing the line "Have you ever tried this one?," sparked fierce debate among fans, with some defending Carpenter's saucy performance style and others criticizing it as "male-focused." This debate actually focuses on a "false dichotomy," Leora Tanenbaum, author of "Sexy Selfie Nation: Standing Up For Yourself in Today's Toxic, Sexist Culture," previously told USA TODAY. "(People) ask if she's trying to appeal to the 'male gaze' — appearing hot to cater to hetero men's sexual desires — or to the 'female gaze' — looking sexy on her own terms to make a point about women's confidence and sex-positivity." Sabrina Carpenter changing views of sex Quakertown's Sabrina Carpenter, hookup culture and why the way we talk about sex is changing In a changing cultural landscape, in which views on female sexual agency are being reevaluated, women like Carpenter are often scrutinized for their overt sexuality. "Carpenter's lyrics are sexually explicit and may not be appropriate for the Disney audience of children she used to cater to, but her sexual frankness is shocking in this day and age only if you believe that women who are open about sexuality are sluts," Tanenbaum said.
