Kylie Kelce's heartfelt sideline gesture becomes the most talked-about moment of the NFL weekend

Kylie Kelce's heartfelt sideline gesture (Image via Getty) Kylie Kelce isn't settling for the sidelines. Married to Philadelphia Eagles legend Jason Kelce, she's stepping into her own arena—where motherhood meets empowerment, sports meets self-worth, and authenticity meets action. Her 'Not Gonna Lie' podcast and advocacy work signal a shift in how women in her position can lead. This isn't just celebrity—it's real influence, redefined. Transforming the NFL spotlight into a movement for body confidence and women's sports Kylie refuses to be reduced to a plus-one. 'If you're going to talk about me, you should talk about things that matter,' she insists—shaping public attention around substance over spectacle. She's joined forces with Dove's Body Confident Sport initiative, challenging the alarming reality that nearly half of girls quit sports by age 14. For her, visibility in the NFL spotlight isn't vanity—it's influence. View this post on Instagram A post shared by ColorsTV (@colorstv) Launching a podcast that turns vulnerability into collective connection Her 'Not Gonna Lie' podcast wasn't born from comfort—it was a leap. She admits, 'It was terrifying letting people into my world,' yet she leaned into that fear to spark honest dialogue. Within weeks of launching in late 2024, it topped Spotify and Apple charts—beating out big names—by prioritizing meaningful stories from women, sports figures, and mothers, often tying in NFL culture from her front-row seat alongside Jason. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Unsold 2021 Cars Now Almost Free - Prices May Surprise You Unsold Cars | Search Ads Learn More Undo Creating ripples beyond the game with films and representation Kylie's reach goes beyond her microphone. She's producing Fans of Confidence, a short film that flips the fan-athlete script by having professional players cheer for young girls on the field. Guests like Olympian Ilona Maher and broadcasters Erin Andrews bring layered stories of resilience, representation, and self-worth. For Kylie, married life with one of the NFL's most respected veterans hasn't meant living in his shadow—it's meant using the platform to amplify voices that matter. Kylie Kelce's journey isn't about standing next to Jason Kelce during career milestones—it's about building her own legacy alongside his. She's proving that the most powerful plays in the NFL world don't always happen on the field. Sometimes, they start with a mic, a message, and the courage to change the game.

Not Mirzapur or Undekhi, this 4-season thriller has supervillains who outshine six heroes, with an IMDb rating over 8, series name is...

While Mirzapur, Undekhi, and Sacred Games have ruled the Indian web scene, there's another show, darker, sharper, and far more twisted, that has left audiences worldwide hooked. The name? The Boys. With four seasons already out and all boasting IMDb ratings above 8, fans now wait for a fifth and final showdown. Premiering in 2019, the first season of The Boys opened with an IMDb score of 8.7. At first glance, the plot introduces an American corporation working hand-in-hand with the government, run by a squad of seven superheroes. But as the story unfolds, their shiny public image crumbles, and these 'heroes' start looking like dangerous villains. The dark origin story It turns out most of these characters are lab-created 'test-tube babies,' engineered through secret experiments to develop unique powers. Others are injected with a mysterious chemical that grants them extraordinary abilities. And not all use them for good. The man who declared war Enter Billy Butcher — a man with a personal vendetta against the corporation, Vought. Forming his rogue team, he sets out to dismantle their empire, fuelled by the desire to avenge his wife's death. Season 2 (2020) and Season 3 (2022) continued the blood-soaked war, each season maintaining an IMDb rating above 8.5. Last year, Season 4 took things up a notch. Billy and his crew grew more ruthless, taking down several superpowered villains. Yet the ultimate antagonist, Homelander, still stands — a final confrontation now inevitable. Rumours suggest the series will conclude with his fall and Vought's collapse. The latest season scored an IMDb 8.6. Where to watch? Available on Prime Video in Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam, and multiple global languages, The Boys offers brutal action, adult themes, and a satirical take on superhero culture. But beware — its violence and explicit content aren't for the faint-hearted.

Regarded As Indian Shakespeare, This Maverick Director Has Redefined Indian Cinema

'Hum Hai, Ya Hum Nahi?', 'Tu to Raja Hai Maqbool...', 'Langda Do these lines ring a bell? Vishal Bharadwaj or Shakespeare? No doubt Bharadwaj is often called as the 'Indian Shakespeare'. A master of mayhem, music and melancholy, he blends poetry and politics in the Indian setting. The way his characters emote and embrace the essence of love, jealousy, ambition, hatred and guilt are a cinematic treat. A true maverick director, Bharadwaj defines a unique set of tone, tension and trope, setting his filmography apart in Bollywood. Diving into a mysterious world of macabre, Shivangi Sharma, Chief Entertainment Officer, Excitel, revisits 3 landmark films by the director that redefined Indian cinema. (Imge: IMDb) Maqbool (2003): Macbeth meets Mumbai Underworld: Vishal Bharadwaj knew exactly how to portray greed and guilt of Macbeth through the lens of Indian underworld. (Imge: IMDb) Set amidst the gruesome world of gang wars, Macbeth becomes Maqbool and Scotland turns into Mumbai. Maqbool (Irrfan Khan), a loyal henchman kills Abbaji (Pankaj Kapur) to take over the throne. However, he never knew what was awaiting him. Soon, he spirals into a mortal quagmire of fear, guilt, and madness. Bharadwaj crafted this Shakespeare classic into a quiet, psychological, and tension-filled world. If you want to experience a gangster story infused with Shakespearean depth, Maqbool is your next watch. (Imge: IMDb) Omkara (2006): Othello trapped by Langda Tyagi: To adapt Othello into UP's setting is one thing, and putting the suave Saif Ali khan into the shoes of rustic Langda Tyagi (Iago) is another one. Yet, it's the brilliance of Vishal Bharadwaj that made it possible. (Imge: IMDb) Crafting a world around love, betrayal and jealousy, Omkara also peeks into the evil of caste politics, power and fragile male ego. Here, Italy's Othello turns into Omkara (Ajay Devgn), Desdemona becomes Dolly (Kareena Kapoor Khan), Cassio becomes Keshu (Vivek Oberoi). However, it was Saif's Langa Tyagi who stole the show. What happens when Omkara, a local bahuballi promotes Cassio as the next strongman instead of Langda, who was a loyal henchman? Langda becomes the green-eyed monster, harboring hatred against Omkara, and eventually towards everyone. His evil plan to destroy Omkara is used as a beautiful trope by Vishal Bharadwaj showcase jealousy, that wasn't just emotional, but social, cultural, and political. Omkara was a bold, brutal, beautiful take on Shakespearean Othello. (Imge: IMDb) Haider (2014): Hamlet and Paradise's devastation: Vishal Bharadwaj once knocked on Shahid Kapoor's door and said, 'You know till today, Irrfan, Pankaj Kapur, Naseeruddin Shah, Om Puri never got a chance to have a monologue in my films. But you are doing it.' And, what a haunting monologue it was. Remember the end sequence where Haider (Shahid Kapoor) is devastated? That's how iconic Haider is. (Imge: IMDb) Vishal Bharadwaj brilliantly adapted the story of Denmark's Hamlet into Kashmir's Haider. Touching upon the issues of identity, loss and revenge, it's the tale of Haider, who is devastated after his father's murder and his uncle's betrayal. Amidst all this he meets his father's ghost, which is beautifully infused through the mysterious character of Roohdaar. (Remember the iconic cameo of Irrfan Khan?). That's when revenge starts boiling and we also experience the deep-rooted conflicts of both Haider and Kashmir. Bharadwaj disguised the Shakespearean tragedy and gave us a chilling account of human emotions and Kashmir's scars. (Imge: IMDb)
