Times10-05-2025

Gérard Depardieu, the French actor who stood trial on sexual assault charges in March, is to appear in a film despite his claim that the allegations had ended his career.
Depardieu, 76, who denies the accusations, has taken a role in a film being made in Portugal, while awaiting the verdict, which is due next week.
The film, Elle regardait sans plus rien voir (She looked without seeing anything any more), is directed by Fanny Ardant, the actress, who also wrote the screenplay, according to the newspaper Libération. Ardant, a close friend of Depardieu, testified in his defence during the trial.
The Portuguese-financed film, which is said to be a love story involving two women, is being shot on Sao Miguel, the largest island in

The World Tonight Will voters feel better off from Chancellor's spending plans?

What would you do with a trillion pounds of public money over the next four years? The Chancellor says "renewing Britain" is at the heart of her plans. So when will voters start to feel better off? We ask a Treasury Minister. Also on the programme: After the US Ambassador to Israel told us that Muslim countries should give up their land to create a Palestinian state - we get reaction from a senior Palestinian official.

Orlando Bloom's just paid £10,000 to have his blood 'cleaned' - but here are 7 much cheaper ways to reduce the quantity of microplastics in your body

At 48, Orlando Bloom still looks as fresh-faced (and drop-dead gorgeous) as when he started out in Hollywood three decades ago. It's unsurprising, then, that the Lord of the Rings star is no stranger to rejuvenating – and often intrusive – procedures, from purging his body with frog poison to ingesting bentonite clay to cleanse his digestive system. But the actor's latest treatment might be his wildest yet. Bloom headed to London 's Clarify Clinic for a £10,000 procedure where a machine supposedly removed the microplastics from his blood.

Molly-Mae Hague's sister Zoe gives her followers an update on her botched Botox in new clip after one eye was left drooping after injections

Molly-Mae Hague 's sister Zoe gave her followers an update on her botched Botox in a new clip posted to her Story on Wednesday. The fitness influencer, 28, was initially left with one eye partially closed after a trip to the clinic in February, telling her fans she 'could weep' at the state of her face. But just a few months later she was back again to 'rock her forehead lines' despite vowing never to return - with Zoe suffering a botched Botox which she described as even 'worse than last time'. The star has been left - once again - with one eye drooping below the other but on Wednesday reassured her followers it was getting better. Showing off her healing eye area she penned: 'EYE UPDATE. Still not great but my GOD it's soooo much better!!!! 3 weeks post incident I'm actually quite happy!' From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new Showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. Zoe revealed she was brutally mocked for her latest botched B otox by a passenger on an airplane, resulting in an explosive row. Zoe shared that during a recent trip to Portugal with a friend, she became embroiled in a dispute with one particularly rude passenger on their flight. Rocking a pair of sunglasses on her YouTube channel to hide the botch-job, she said: 'I actually had a really really upsetting experience just as we landed in Portugal. 'We were in a queue and there was another one going past us and there was this one horrible lady, I don't know if she was drunk - she must've been. 'She was trying to get past me and she said, "why are you just stood there like a d*******" and I was like, "why did you just call me that?" 'And her husband was like, "what's going on here" and I said, "your wife just called me that for literally no reason" and there was a bit of back and forth before he said, "sort your daft eye out, you c***."' 'But I actually agreed, I thought fair enough. I do need to sort it out.' Later in the video Zoe lifted up her sunglasses to reveal that one of her eyes is still well and truly drooping a couple of weeks after her latest procedure. She is suffering with a little-known side effect called ptosis which occurs when Botox treatment spreads beyond the intended injection area and effects the muscles that lifts these areas, causing the eyelid or eyebrow to sag and droop. Zoe told her followers in the latest video: 'I recently had botox, it went wrong and it's given me ptosis. This has happened to me before and it's now happened a second time. 'People are saying to me, "why would you go back to the same place?" - I did the same for my wedding, she's done me a lot of times and I trust her. 'She's fully qualified, do you think I'm going to someone on the corner of the street? Of course not. 'We don't know why it's happened again and that's that, we've just got to ride the wave.' Zoe's decision to have Botox once again comes after her sister Molly, 26, recently reflected on days of facial fillers and Botox in her Amazon docuseries. In one of the episodes Molly unearthed a viral image of her flaunting an enlarged pout and defined jawline sparked an influx of trolling including being compared to an XBOX controller. From the age of 16, Molly used makeup and facial fillers to alter her appearance and now admits her obsession to 'look like everybody else' was 'unhealthy.' Molly explained: 'You think that all the makeup and the filler make you look better but actually it makes you look ten times worse. 'I was about 16/17 when I started getting filler. It was a slippery slope. People say I looked like an XBOX controller or a Quagmire, but I don't know what that is. 'It definitely felt like something that I needed to do to look like everybody else that was on Instagram which was really unhealthy. 'I look at those pictures and I feel quite sorry for myself. It just spiralled really. I tried to think it looked good, but it really didn't and then luckily, it was reversible.'
