Post Malone's 27kg weight loss involved cutting out this beverage and science says it works
Synopsis Post Malone has revealed his impressive 27kg weight loss, showcasing his new physique in a Skims campaign. He attributes his transformation primarily to cutting out sugary sodas, a habit he indulged in heavily while touring. Alongside this dietary change, Malone adopted healthier eating habits, opting for grilled chicken and incorporating hot sauce, contributing to his successful weight loss journey and boosted confidence. Post Malone has revealed the secret behind his impressive 27kg weight loss, showcasing his new physique in a Skims campaign. He attributes his transformation primarily to cutting out sugary sodas, a habit he indulged in heavily while touring. (Images: Screenshots/ Instagram) Related Post Malone, the chart-topping rapper behind hits like Circles and Rockstar , has undergone a remarkable transformation, shedding 27kg (60lbs) and unveiling his slimmer physique in a bold new campaign for Kim Kardashian's Skims brand. Once weighing 108kg (240lbs), Malone now sits under 84kg (185lbs), and he says the change has not only reshaped his body but also his confidence. 'It was really a lot of fun, it made me feel like a handsome son of a bitch,' he told GQ after posing in nothing but underwear and a cowboy hat in the Utah countryside. While many assume grueling gym sessions drive celebrity weight loss, Malone credits much of his progress to a surprisingly simple dietary change: cutting out fizzy drinks. Speaking on The Joe Rogan Experience podcast, the rapper admitted that soda was his biggest weakness on tour. 'Soda is so bad. It's so good but so bad,' he said, confessing he used to treat himself to a Coke on ice after a great show. Quitting the habit, he explained, was one of the biggest turning points in his health journey. Malone's decision to give up sugary drinks isn't just anecdotal—it's supported by research. A study published in the journal Nutrients found that replacing even a single sugary beverage with water each day led to measurable weight loss and improved overall health. Sugary drinks are a major source of 'empty calories,' which can spike blood sugar, increase fat storage, and fuel cravings. By removing them from his daily routine, Malone cut out a significant hidden source of calories, making his weight-loss journey more sustainable. Alongside ditching soda, Malone revamped his tour diet, opting for grilled chicken, carrots, and rice instead of fast food. He also found a quirky but effective ally in hot sauce. Speaking to Howard Stern, he joked about his discovery: 'Hot sauce has no calories in it. I was blown away… I lost 20 pounds doing that, and I was like, let's keep going, let's keep building.'

Fight breaks out in Carnival Cruise dining hall over chicken tenders
After roughly 20 guests got into a violent altercation in the early hours of Monday morning, a Carnival Cruise descended into chaos. The ship was returning to Miami from the Bahamas when the startling incident occurred in the dining area at around two in the morning, as per New York Post. Fight breaks out on Carnival Cruise(Instagram/mikeisterra) Online footage shows passengers kicking, punching, and wrestling each other to the ground as security personnel frantically attempted to break up the fight. There were shoes all over the floor, and at one point, two people were in headlocks while others swung their fists frantically. A couple of women stood up, seemingly in their seats in the dining area, to film the altercation. Meanwhile, some bystanders can be heard yelling for security as the violence was escalating. Passengers fight over chicken tenders Content creator Mike Terra filmed the brawl and posted the video on Instagram. He then flips the video to record his reaction, where he says, 'Over chicken tenders is crazy.' Also read: Carnival Cruise Line cancels 5 Carnival Breeze sailings scheduled for 2027 He captioned the video saying, 'I always hear carnival is ghetto/ratchet. I have been cruising for years, but this is my first time seeing some action on a ship.' While speaking to the New York Post, Terra said that the real cause of the fight was unclear, but confirmed that the fight erupted when the passengers had queued for food. Security overwhelmed According to another report in The Irish Sun, three security guards had rushed to the scene, with one of them calling for backup while the other two tried to pull people apart. The fight lasted several minutes before they could break it off and restore order. The Irish Sun report added that those involved appeared to be under 30, with many likely in their early 20s. Not the first time for Carnival Cruise This, however, is not the first incident in which a Carnival Cruise descended into violence. In April, The Irish Sun added, another cruise saw a major brawl break out as passengers disembarked after a week-long Caribbean trip. The incident resulted in 24 passengers being banned from the cruise line. Last year, another viral fight erupted aboard a Carnival ship after passengers allegedly argued over a slice of pizza. What is next? The ship involved in the latest incident, the Carnival Sunshine, left Miami last Thursday, visited the Bahamas, and was on its way back to Florida when the fight happened. Carnival Cruise Line has not released an official statement about the incident; it is unclear what action the passengers will face. FAQs: 1. What caused the fight on the Carnival Cruise? The exact cause is unclear, but reports suggest it started in a buffet line and may have been related to chicken tenders. 2. When did the brawl happen? The fight broke out around 2 AM on Monday, during the ship's final night before returning to Miami. 3. How many people were involved? Approximately 20 passengers were seen fighting in the footage. 4. Is this the first fight on a Carnival Cruise? No. Similar brawls have occurred before, including incidents over pizza and previous altercations that led to passenger bans.

Kriti Sanon slams gender pay gap in Bollywood, says producers are 'scared' to give female-led films big budgets
Actor Kriti Sanon spoke candidly about the ongoing issue of gender pay disparity in Bollywood at a recent event. Highlighting the industry's long-standing reluctance to treat male and female actors equally, she questioned why pay should differ when the work remains the same. Kriti Sanon highlighted producers' reluctance to invest in female-led films despite their potential for success and expressed optimism about a shift towards content-driven projects.(Photo: Instagram) Kriti opens up about pay disparity in Bollywood Speaking at the CNN-News18 event on Thursday, Kriti said, "Actually, considering all the other industries, I don't understand why the pay parity is not there. Because for certain kinds of roles, certain kinds of jobs, whether you are a male or a female, it shouldn't matter, and the pay should be the same. In the films, yes we've been having this conversation for a very, very long time and trust me it pinches us more than anyone else." 'Even if it's a film led by a woman, I feel it's not scaled at the same budget as a film that is led by a man would be. But that's also because producers are scared that they are not going to get as much money back. So I think it's a circle where female-led films don't end up making as much money as the male-led films, and then it's like 'oh, that's why his fees are more or her fees are less'," she added. Despite the challenges, Kriti expressed optimism about the slow but noticeable shift in the industry's attitude. She noted that content-driven films are beginning to take centre stage, regardless of whether they're led by men or women. Citing the success of the female-led film Crew, she emphasised the importance of fun, high-budget projects being fronted by women and urged producers to take more risks based on stories rather than gender. The 2024 film starred Kriti alongside Tabu and Kareena Kapoor. It grossed ₹157 crore worldwide and was one of the highest-grossing Hindi films last year. Kriti's upcoming projects On the work front, Kriti is gearing up for several big releases. She will next be seen opposite Dhanush in Aanand L. Rai's Tere Ishq Mein, followed by Cocktail 2, directed by Homi Adajania and co-starring Shahid Kapoor and Rashmika Mandanna.
