Porn star Kylie Page dies at 28 from suspected overdose
Adult film star Kylie Page, who also appeared in the Netflix documentary Hot Girls Wanted: Turned On , died at 28 of a suspected overdose in her Los Angeles home last month.
Though law enforcement sources told TMZ they suspect the Tulsa, Oklahoma native succumbed to an overdose, her cause of death had not yet been confirmed as of July 2. Authorities do not suspect foul play.
Page was pronounced dead at the scene on June 25 after friends called police to perform a welfare check.
Responding officers reportedly found fentanyl and drug paraphernalia in her apartment, along with 'sexual photos of her with different men scattered around,' according to the outlet.
As reported last week, a GoFundMe set up by Page's sister had raised its US$10,000 (RM42,373.45) goal to help her family transport her body back to her native Midwest.
'Kylie was a daughter who loved hard, a sister who never let go and a friend who showed up without being asked,' her sister wrote.
'This GoFundMe isn't just about funeral expenses. It's about bringing Kylie home. It's about helping her family breathe through the shock, the grief, and the unimaginable reality they're living in.'
During her decade of appearing in adult films, Page worked with big-name companies such as Brazzers, Vixen Media and Naughty America, and was also on OnlyFans.
Brazzers paid tribute to Page in a social media post.
'The Brazzers team is deeply saddened to learn of Kylie Page's passing,' they wrote. 'Kylie will be remembered for her laughter, kindness and bringing light wherever she went.'
In addition to her film credits, Page was credited as Bonnie Kinz in an episode of the Netflix miniseries, Hot Girls Wanted , which explored 'the intersection of sex, technology and intimate relationships.' – New York Daily News/Tribune News Service

Superman and Fantastic Four ignite rivalry among Marvel and DC comic fans
#TeamSuperman or #TeamFantasticFour? Photos: Handout Comic fans are embracing the latest showdown between Marvel and DC as their superhero films Fantastic Four and Superman compete for box office dominance, reigniting a rivalry spanning over eight decades. Whether it's the thrill of seeing the comic book superhero The Thing shout "It's clobbering time!" before throwing a punch or watching Superman and his faithful pup Krypto save the day, fans are heading to movie theatres to support their favourite films. "Well, clearly I'm a Marvel fan," said Danielle Stroski, who was dressed as the shapeshifter character Mystique from Marvel's X-Men comics, at the San Diego Comic-Con. "But I have a little white dog at home, so I love me some Superman as well. And I know the little white dog is stealing the show for Superman , so it's going to be close. But I got to go Marvel," she added. The 42-year-old from California predicted Fantastic Four would outperform Superman at the box office. DC fan Lito Loza, dressed as Superboy, voiced his support for Superman . "I've already seen 'Superman' three times, and I'm very, very happy with what James Gunn did with it. It makes me feel hopeful," he said, referring to the director. The filmmakers encourage fans to support both movies. "I'm a huge Superman fan. I'm a huge James Gunn fan. I'm thrilled that both of us are coming out this month," director Matt Shakman of Fantastic Four: First Steps said at the London premiere. "I think we share a lot of similar optimism in our tone and our feeling in the worlds that we're building. And there's room for Superman , there's room for Fantastic Four . I'm thrilled. Go see both," he added. Superman director Gunn, who directed the Marvel movie Guardians Of The Galaxy , said in an interview in Los Angeles that he grew up reading both Marvel and DC comic books, appreciating their distinct tones. In theatres on July 11, Superman introduced David Corenswet as the Man of Steel. The movie grossed around US$173mil globally and US$264mil domestically for a total of around US$437mil, according to Box Office Mojo. Warner Bros has heavily invested in Superman , aiming to launch a new era at DC Studios under Gunn, who has been named co-CEO, alongside producer Peter Safran. Upcoming projects include a Supergirl film slated for June 2026 and a film based on the character Swamp Thing, as well as TV shows for HBO Max. Disney said on Saturday that by the end of Friday, Fantastic Four , which stars Pedro Pascal, had earned an estimated US$106.2mil globally, including US$57mil domestically and US$49.2mil internationally. – Reuters

Charming xianxia romp
FOR those unfamiliar with the sprawling, spirit-summoning world of xianxia dramas, Love Game in Eastern Fantasy might sound intimidating at first glance. Ancient costumes? Cultivation? Demon hunters with long names and even longer grudges? It is a lot to take in. But this 2024 Tencent series, now recently added on Netflix, based on The Guide to Capturing a Black Lotus by Bai Yu Zhai Diao Gong, pulls off an unexpected trick, it makes the whole thing delightfully accessible. And not just accessible, funny, modern and above all, watchable. Right from the first episode, it lobs viewers into a world of fantasy novels, demon clans, heavenly missions and metaphysical chaos. Yet somehow, it all makes sense, thanks to one mischievously relatable protagonist, a tongue-in-cheek premise and a structure that gamifies each story arc with clear rules and escalating stakes. For any viewer wondering where to start with the genre: this is it. Try one episode and the rabbit hole practically digs itself. Accidental heroine, intentional chaos The story begins with a modern girl who vents her frustrations with a scathing online review, only to find herself accidentally pulled into the very fantasy novel she was criticising. Insert glitchy mission system, dramatic costume change and a sudden villainous identity and boom: the reluctant heroine is now part of a deadly game where failure means starting over. What makes Love Game in Eastern Fantasy stand out is how self-aware it is. Unlike typical epic dramas that expect viewers to understand centuries-old lore, this series treats its genre with affectionate mockery. The heroine does not know the rules either, and that is the whole point. She learns them (and breaks them) as she goes, dragging the audience along for the ride with hilarious commentary, awkward encounters and the occasional jaw-dropping plot twist. Demon royalty, twisted romance Surrounding her is a colourful cast of demon-slayers, scholars and not-quite-human love interests. Among them: a cold-blooded half-demon with deep emotional trauma, a demon-slaying big sister with trust issues and a charming rogue who may or may not have ulterior motives. Everyone has at least three names, a dramatic backstory and the tendency to recite poetic lines while bleeding. But thankfully, the show never takes itself too seriously. Its strongest moments come when it embraces the weirdness, mixing drama with comedy and fantasy with the emotional confusion of someone trying to flirt while surviving monster attacks. With each mission the heroine clears, the emotional stakes grow deeper and the once-chaotic world starts to make suspiciously coherent sense. Stay for the plot Despite its fantasy setting, the show has a structure that feels almost like a game, complete missions, survive resets and level up emotionally. The plot progression is easy to follow, even for first-time xianxia viewers. The pacing keeps things moving briskly and the visual production, from elaborate sets at Hengdian World Studios to its dreamy cinematography, is gorgeous. The charm also lies in the fact that the story never demands full genre literacy. The heroine is confused by the ancient world? So are viewers. The rules keep changing? That is half the fun. The demons talk like misunderstood philosophers? That is just Tuesday. Even the romantic elements, which in xianxia can sometimes get bogged down by fate and tragedy, feel fresh here. There is chemistry, banter and enough mystery to keep things interesting without the emotional drag. But not without some bumps No series is perfect and Love Game in Eastern Fantasy is not exempt. While its game-reset structure adds excitement, it occasionally causes abrupt plot shifts that might throw off viewers expecting a more grounded 'normal person trapped in a fantasy novel' arc. Certain emotional beats jump too quickly, as if the story skipped a few pages to hit the next dramatic twist. For some, this may make character development feel uneven, especially when the narrative pivots between comedy and trauma in the span of one sword fight. That said, these jumps do not ruin the experience. They simply reflect a show that tries to do a lot, sometimes all at once. And in the spirit of its genre, that chaotic layering kind of works. As long as expectations are tempered, the ride is still wildly enjoyable. For the genre-curious What sets Love Game in Eastern Fantasy apart is its accessibility. Even with its 32-episode run, sprawling mythology and complex character arcs, it still feels like a story meant for anyone willing to press play. Whether viewers are longtime xianxia fans or completely new to the scene, the series offers a refreshingly comedic take on a genre often steeped in heaviness. Its heroine is not a chosen saviour or immortal warrior, just a sassy, reluctant participant trying to find the exit. And that makes her journey one worth watching. Love Game in Eastern Fantasy is best approached the same way its heroine stumbles into her adventure: by accident. All it takes is one episode and like her, viewers may find themselves unexpectedly hooked, cheering through the chaos and laughing through the lore. A cleverly packaged mix of comedy, romance and demon-hunting fantasy, Love Game in Eastern Fantasy is one of 2024's most surprising genre hits. Though it may stumble with a few narrative jumps, its charm, cast and clever storytelling more than make up for it. An easy entry into xianxia and an absolute treat for fantasy drama fans, accidental or not.

Cha Eun-woo covers KPop Demon Hunters song Free with Arden Cho

Photo: Arden Cho/YouTube The wait is over for fans who have been looking forward to the collaboration between South Korean singer-actor Cha Eun-woo and American actress Arden Cho. On July 27, Netflix dropped a video of their duet for the song Free from the streaming platform's hit animated movie KPop Demon Hunters (2025). The film follows the members of Huntrix, a fictional K-pop girl group, who are fighting to save the world from soul-stealing demons and competing with fictional K-pop boy band Saja Boys from the demon world. 'This cover of Free by Huntrix has officially pierced my heart,' Netflix wrote on Instagram, and thanked the two stars. In the film, the romantic ballad is sung by the characters Rumi, leader and lead vocalist of Huntrix, and Jinu, leader of Saja Boys. Cho, best known for her roles in American supernatural teen series Teen Wolf (2011 to 2017) and legal drama Partner Track (2022), voices Rumi, with Korean-American singer Ejae providing the character's singing voice. Jinu is voiced by Canadian actor Ahn Hyo-seop, with South Korean singer Andrew Choi providing the character's singing voice. K-drama idol Cha was reportedly the inspiration behind Jinu. Cho, 39, also posted on Instagram and her YouTube channel on July 26 a video in which she chatted with Cha, 28 – a member of K-pop boy band Astro – about their duet. He is set to begin his mandatory military service on July 28. 'I'm here with one of my awesome 'dongsaeng' (Korean for younger sibling or friend),' she said. 'But people don't really know you're one of my 'dongsaeng' because we never posted a picture or anything.' Cha said they were introduced about five years ago via a South Korean producer who worked on some of his shows. He had starred in K-dramas such as My ID Is Gangnam Beauty (2018), Rookie Historian Goo Hae-ryung (2019) and True Beauty (2020 to 2021). 'When I was in America, she introduced (me to) a lot of delicious brunch cafes and restaurants,' Cha said of Cho. 'We love eating.' Cho remarked that Cha looks like Jinu, adding: 'And I thought it'd be really fun and special if we did a collaboration.' Cha also said Cho resembles Rumi, and that it was a sentiment shared by many of his celebrity friends in South Korea and his staff. 'We were texting about KPop Demon Hunters and when we were talking about the movie, I mentioned I was coming to Korea to do some press,' Cho said. 'We were, like, wouldn't it be fun if we covered it?' Cha said he loves all the songs from the movie, especially Free . Cho added that her fiance is a huge fan of Cha's. She announced her engagement on social media in April without revealing his name. 'He's been waiting for our cover. He said you're so cool and so good-looking. You really look like Jinu.' – The Straits Times/Asia News Network
