Emma Watson's Breezy Gingham Dress Is the Perfect Summer Lunch Look
Emma Watson made a stylish arrival in Nice, France, yesterday, and continued showing off her chic summer wardrobe this afternoon in Cannes. The actress was photographed wearing a flowing red gingham dress with tan boots while having lunch at Bièrerie by Brasserie Du Casino. The Cannes Film Festival is ongoing, with its closing ceremony set for Saturday, May 24. Watson did not reveal which event or red carpet premiere she will be attending, but her return to the French festival event marks her first industry event of the year. Watson was last seen out at an NBA All-Star Celebrity Game on Valentine's Day. She attended the Cannes Film Festival once before in 2013 for the premiere of The Bling Ring. Watson has been working on her master's degree at Oxford University. In December 2023, the star spoke about her choice to step away from acting to focus on academics. 'Because I'm in a career that moves very quickly, the decision to take time to do these things felt like a very big decision,' she said. '[Choosing] to go back and write and study and get behind the camera was terrifying for me because I'd never done it before. I had always been in front of the camera; I'd always been an actor.' She has no regrets though: 'I'm just so glad that I did [step away from acting] because I have this feeling of having my own voice and creative space and sovereignty in some way that I don't think I did before—more autonomy,' she said. 'I'm so glad that I allowed things to be messy for a minute and to really allow myself to not know [what's next], because the knowing that I've come to, I wouldn't trade that for anything.'

'I love women. I love Toronto. Joining the ownership group of the Tempo is an absolute no-brainer. I can't think of anything else I would rather spend my money, time and hype-woman energy on.'

Singh joins tennis star Serena Williams, tech executive Sukhinder Singh Cassidy and sports investor Larry Tanenbaum in the Tempo ownership group. 'Lilly is a creative visionary with infectious energy and enthusiasm,' said Tempo president Teresa Resch. 'Her expertise in online community-building and socially-driven storytelling, not to mention her deep passion for this game, this league and this city, will be absolutely invaluable.' The team hired Monica Wright Rogers as its first general manager in February and has yet to name a head coach. The Tempo will play out of Coca-Cola Coliseum in Toronto starting in 2026, with games also planned across Canada. Toronto Maple Leafs Editorials Ontario Canada Sunshine Girls

Is Shannon Sharpe being set up? Fans question the timing and motives behind the lawsuit
Shannon Sharpe on the red carpet at the NBA All-Star Celebrity Game. / Trevor Ruszkowski-Imagn Images Recently, the Hall of Fame tight end and ESPN analyst was slapped with a $50 million lawsuit by a woman accusing him of sexual assault, battery, and emotional abuse during a two-year relationship. While the case itself is shocking, the internet's reaction has been even more explosive. Fans, critics, and conspiracy theorists are all weighing in, raising questions about timing, celebrity manipulation, and the involvement of attorney Tony Buzbee . Shannon Sharpe just signed a $100M deal, so the timing of this lawsuit feels suspiciously off to many fans One of the first things that stood out across social media was the timing of the lawsuit. Many online observers have called the situation 'calculated,' with some suggesting that the case was not just about the details of the allegations but about how and when they were made public. Could this be part of a larger media strategy aimed at damaging Sharpe's career at a crucial moment? by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Underground Oddities: Weird Characters Spotted in the Subway Subway Quirks and Curiosities Undo Tony Buzbee's role in the lawsuit: A history of high-profile cases and controversies At the center of this storm is Tony Buzbee, the attorney representing the woman suing Sharpe. Known for his aggressive representation in high-profile cases, including those of Deshaun Watson and others, Buzbee has developed a reputation for bringing attention-grabbing lawsuits to the forefront. His involvement in this case immediately raised eyebrows, as people began to question his motives. Buzbee is often seen as a figure who targets high-profile celebrities, bringing them to court in a way that attracts widespread media attention. His approach has sparked further suspicions about the true intentions behind the lawsuit. A common theme in the backlash against the lawsuit is the idea that this situation follows a familiar script used in previous high-profile cases. This playbook, many believe, involves allegations, media coverage, and the public trial of a celebrity that eventually leads to a reputation-damaging outcome. The accusations against Sharpe, whether valid or not, fit a recognizable pattern seen in the past with other public figures. The public seems to have grown increasingly skeptical about the genuine nature of such claims, believing that they are often used as a tool for manipulation.

If nothing else, this situation serves as a reminder of the power of the media and the consequences of celebrity status, something fans will be watching closely as the case develops.

9 Justin Bieber hockey photos of the singer playing in the L.A. fire benefit game
Justin Bieber, as you may know, is a big hockey fan (remember, he was born in Canada, so he roots for the Toronto Maple Leafs), but the singer can also play on skates, as we once saw in an All-Star Celebrity Game. On Sunday night, he played in a benefit tournament after the Los Angeles wildfires. It was called Skate For LA Strong, and it starred some big name former hockey players and Bieber, who "fought" the legendary Jeremy Roenick to get the crowd going. That was too much fun. And here are some photos of Bieber in uniform on Sunday: This article originally appeared on For The Win: 9 Justin Bieber hockey photos of the singer playing in the L.A. fire benefit game
