Some users were stunned by the brand crossover, asking: 'Why am I getting ads for Xiaomi cars now?' Another added, 'The CEO at the Xiaomi water company watching the sales skyrocket today,' mixing humor with real surprise at the company's growing reach.
The Xiaomi SU7 Ultra, which debuted at Mobile World Congress 2025, is making headlines for more than just its power. With sleek aesthetics, vibrant color options, and a cabin full of tech, the car was clearly designed to turn heads — and with IShowSpeed in the driver's seat, it's done exactly that.
'It seems Xiaomi didn't just make this car to be driven,' another post read. 'They designed it to turn heads and launch IShowSpeed into his typical over-the-top/scream-on-top-of-his-voice reaction.'

Mayi Re' director talks second instalment
Fan-favourite director Meesum Naqvi made an appearance in an episode of YouTube series, Gup Shup with FUCHSIA Magazine, where he answered fan questions such as whether Mayi Ri will have a second season and how Parwarish's script was developed. "When we created Mayi Ri, beautiful things like Aina and Samar happened," Naqvi said. "They gathered an insane fan following." After Mayi Ri, the production house wanted Naqvi to cast Aina Asif and Samar Jafri together again. Mayi Ri delved into the life of a 15-year-old schoolgirl who is compelled to marry her underage cousin. The show unravelled the devastating consequences of child marriages, which can shatter innocent childhoods forever. On the other hand, Parwarish touches upon the challenges of parenthood and turns the spotlight on the younger generation's ache for control and independence. Both shows have captivated viewers with their layered scripts and focus on meaningful societal issues. Naqvi shared that he did not want to make Mayi Ri 2. "What would even be the plot of it, that the couple does a halala and is back together?" he asked. "That would not have made sense." "I made the show against child marriage, and I cannot have negated that just because people wanted the two back together. There will be no Mayi Ri 2 because I have told a complete story," clarified the director. Naqvi still wanted to make something with the two of them together, and Parwarish was created. The director was not fully on board with Parwarish at the start. "Two years after Mayi Ri, I didn't have any ongoing projects. Someone in the production house asked, 'Why not Parwarish?' The script wasn't complete at the time so I was a bit hesitant. The people at the production encouraged me to give it a go. Eventually, I gave it a read and loved it!" Regarding the two main leads, Aina had a bit of scheduling issues but made it work. For Samar's background, the director shared, "We were always sure that Samar would play the character of Wali. The character was designed keeping him in mind, from his music background to his personality traits." Calling upon repetitive storytelling, the director revealed, "We initially considered turning Nooray Zeeshan into one of the heroines and creating a proper love triangle. I didn't do it because I did not want to show cousin marriages on screen. We had seen enough of this in Mayi Ri."

Tyrese Gibson might face court action tied to unresolved divorce matter
Tyrese Gibson is facing the threat of jail time over nearly half a million dollars in unpaid legal fees related to his divorce from ex-wife Samantha Gibson. According to court documents obtained by Complex and originally reported by TMZ, Samantha's legal team has filed a fourth motion to hold the actor and singer in contempt of court for allegedly failing to pay $492,651.99 owed to two law firms. The outstanding amount includes attorney fees and accrued interest owed to The Gleklen Law Firm and Bloom Lines Alexander. Samantha's lawyers are now requesting a criminal contempt ruling and are pushing for a maximum penalty of 20 days in jail, citing Gibson's continued failure to settle the debt. Tyrese and Samantha Gibson were married in 2017 and share a daughter, Soraya. The couple divorced in 2020, and Samantha later admitted during a 2023 podcast appearance that she may have rushed the decision to end the marriage. Despite her remarks, her attorneys maintain that the financial obligations resulting from the divorce remain valid and overdue. This latest development adds to a growing list of legal troubles for the Fast & Furious star. As of now, Tyrese has not publicly responded to the motion or the allegations of nonpayment. The court has yet to issue a ruling on the contempt request.

ALLDAY PROJECT Tarzzan faces backlash for allegedly using racist slur in viral rap video
Tarzzan, member of co-ed K-pop group ALLDAY PROJECT, is under fire once again, this time over a viral video in which he allegedly says the N-word while rapping. The 22-year-old idol was filmed during a guest appearance in a car, rapping along to 'LIKE WEEZY' by Playboi Carti. Fans claim he replaced the word 'boy' in the original lyrics with the racial slur. The video, initially uploaded to TikTok and later removed from YouTube, quickly spread across social media. Critics pointed to this moment as further evidence of ongoing cultural appropriation by the idol, citing his use of braids, grills, and overall styling influenced by Black culture since his debut. One user posted, 'Everything about that Tarzzan guy should have gotten him cancelled even before his debut,' adding that he has never addressed previous criticisms. Another user said, 'He has not issued a single apology or acknowledgement of his actions.' Defenders of Tarzzan argue the video may have been misinterpreted. The issue gained further traction when a fake apology, styled as an official statement surfaced online. The fan-made post referenced both the viral video and past allegations, falsely claiming Tarzzan had been removed from the group. While not real, the message captured what many fans believed the company should address. However, neither Tarzzan, ALLDAY PROJECT, nor their label THEBLACKLABEL has issued a public comment or apology regarding the incident.
