Katy Perry Suffers Wardrobe Malfunction, Bra Snaps Off During Live Show
Last Updated: Katy Perry handled a wardrobe malfunction professionally during her Las Vegas show on May 17. Despite the mishap, she continued performing seamlessly. American singer Katy Perry handled a wardrobe malfunction during her Las Vegas live performance on May 17 with the utmost professionalism. The Harleys In Hawaii singer is currently on tour for her seventh studio album, 143. The incident occurred while she was performing her 2010 hit, Part of Me, at the T-Mobile Arena. In a video going viral, Perry was seen running across the stage when the clasp of her bejewelled bra broke. Despite the mishap, the pop star remained composed and continued her performance with the same zeal. 'Oh, sh**, my bra's going to come off," Perry joked to the crowd as her band continued with an instrumental break. She navigated through her stilt-walking backup dancers, maintaining high energy despite the malfunction. At one point, she called out to her assistant, Patrick, asking him to 'put her bra back on." However, she danced through the moment, flaunting the flapping straps of the malfunctioning costume piece. Showing the confidence gained from over 15 years in the pop industry, Perry seamlessly resumed her choreography once her bra was secured, starting from where she had left – the chorus of Part of Me. Katy Perry is no stranger to wardrobe malfunctions During the filming of American Idol last year, the Hot N Cold singer experienced a significant wardrobe issue, causing her to duck under the judges' table and cover herself with a pillow. In one Instagram video, she joked, 'I need my top to stay on. If it's not fixed, this show is going to get more than it wanted." Since April, Katy Perry has been on the road for her seventh studio album, embarking on The Lifetimes Tour—named after its lead single. The tour started in Mexico City and is set to span the United States, Canada, South America, and Europe, with short stops in China and the United Arab Emirates. It is scheduled to wrap up in December. First Published:

Distinguished Gentleman's Ride 2025: A Dapper Vibe In Genting Highlands
Subscribe to our FREE In case you missed it, thousands of bikers around the world took to the streets last weekend on 18 May to ride for a a charitable cause, and Malaysian riders participated as well. This year, TRP joined the Genting Highlands convoy to bring you guys (and gals) close to the action. Whether you've never heard of DGR, didn't get to join it this year, or simply want to relive the event last Sunday, the photos and videos we've collected is what it's like to be a part of this well-dressed ride. 8am: safety briefing and flag-off Everyone got up pretty early to get some pre-ride roti canai and kopi O first in the morning. The area near the National Art Gallery (the first meeting point for DGR Kuala Lumpur to Genting Highlands) in Kuala Lumpur already saw handfuls of suited riders on classic and custom bikes circling around looking for breakfast before the 8am meet in the gallery's parking lot. Right after fueling up our bodies, we adjourned to the RV (that's biker talk for meetup point) and were immediately greeted with the early birds. Seems that some bikers were overly excited to start the ride. Even the sun is barely up. Image: TRP A few hellos and fist-bumps later, everyone was called to gather for a safety briefing by the ride hosts. For a convoy of this size, it's really important to be reminded of riding safely and considerately. It is a gentleman's ride, after all. Not a hooligan's ride. No this is not a political rally. Image: TRP Bikes of all types and sizes took part in the ride. No discrimination here! Image: TRP Looking your best is commonplace at DGR. Image: TRP A rider with his 650cc parallel twin engine Royal Enfield Interceptor motorcycle. Image: TRP What's a bike meet without custom Harleys? Well, still a bike meet nonetheless. Image: TRP Big, burly bikes not your thing? These cute CFMOTO Papios are so easy to handle, anyone can ride them. Image: TRP 9am: time to roll out! As soon as the safety briefing was over and we were done gawking and ogling all the exquisite two-wheeled machines present at the RV, it was time to strap on our helmets, jump on our bikes and start our engines to make our way to the highlands. To ensure we don't hog the roads to ourselves, the hosts made everyone ride out in batches. This also ensures safety because imagine riding among a convoy of over 100 bikes of varying sizes and power. It could get dicey. There's just something about the smell of petrol in the morning. Image: TRP A Harley-Davidson Street Glide, otherwise known as a couch on wheels. Image: TRP That helmet has seen better days, but the ride must go on! Image: TRP After rolling out, we made our way to Karak highway, the main route many bikers take to get to Genting Highlands every weekend. The wide road and sweeping corners make the journey a joy to experience. Don't ride too fast, and you'll be able to enjoy the scenery. Image: TRP A CFMOTO Papio in action. Image: TRP 10am: DGR endpoint, catching up with friends, and more coffee After a short cruise on the highway and up the foot of the mountain, we finally reached the endpoint of the ride – the Xintiandi Sales Gallery parking lot just before Goh Tong Jaya. The cool air up in Genting had offset the morning heat and humidity of Kuala Lumpur, which helped with being in three-piece suits and jackets. Shortly after arriving, more and more bikes rolled in and we got a second chance to witness all the beautiful machines rumbling their way in to the parking lot. Wether young or old, classic or modern, man or woman, everyone with bikes gathered for the cause. Image: TRP Men gathered, man's best friend followed. Image: TRP Side mirrors are good for many things, like doing a quick face check. Image: TRP Did you know? UK-based Triumph Motorcycles is the official sponsor for DGR. Image: TRP A successful 1966 Honda ad said 'You meet the nicest people on a Honda', and we agree! Image: TRP A custom 1200cc Harley-Davidson 48. Image: TRP A couple of inmates found their way to the event too. Image: TRP Yup you guessed it, there was a best-dressed competition to reward those who went all out. Image: TRP Fashion influencer and entrepreneur Wak Doyok (left) is one of DGR's ambassadors in Malaysia. After hanging about for a few minutes, it was time to get another round of drinks, which was supplied by Their signature drink, the (non-alcoholic) Butterbrew, was served alongside the coffee variation. If you've not had the chance to taste this refreshing and creamy beverage, pop by Rosco on Jalan Raja Abdullah, Kuala Lumpur. The recipe, which is non-alcoholic, is a closely-guarded secret. Good thing for everyone is, the Rosco Butterbrew doesn't cost a fortune. Image: TRP. Side effects of the non-alcoholic Butterbrew include smiling a lot, compulsive desire to 'cheers' with everyone, and suddenly wanting to look like you came from Birmingham in the 1900s. Image: TRP A day well spent, and a cause spoken for As the day went on, some stayed, some left, but all spoke about the real matter at hand: Poor mental health can affect people of all genders, but outcomes for those who identify as men, and those who are perceived or expected to behave in traditionally masculine ways are often shaped by distinct social pressures and stigma. Meanwhile, prostate cancer is the second most common cancer in men, and over 10 million men around the world are living with or beyond a prostate cancer diagnosis. DGR encourages important conversations through simple questions, beginning with 'are you okay?', which could lead to saving a life. Listening is just as important as asking, because someone suffering mental health difficulties just need to be heard first. That is what DGR is actually all about.

8 Seafood Dives In Florida Locals Don't Want You To Know About
Florida may have top-tier white-tablecloth coastal cuisine, but some of the freshest seafood in the state comes in a paper basket at a weathered picnic table. From conch fritters and Low Country boils to sweet potato–crusted mahi and just-caught Gulf shrimp, these seafood restaurants keep it simple as a rule. Many even offer cook-your-catch options after a day of reeling in your fresh catch. Whether tucked into a strip mall or sitting on the dock of the bay, these beloved seafood dives in Florida deliver atmosphere and flavor you can't find anywhere else. Crystal River Equal parts seafood market and dockside dive, The Crab Plant serves fish so fresh you'll see it coming off the boat. They own and operate their own boats, so you know the daily catch is as fresh as it gets—not to mention the owners' combined 60 years of experience in the wholesale, retail, and fish production sides of the seafood industry. Go for any crab or fish dish, or try it all in a Low Country boil; or, if you're visiting during scalloping season (July 1 to September 24), bring your fresh-caught Bay scallops here for them to prepare. Note this Kings Bay gem is cash only, so come prepared. 201 NW 5th Street, Crystal River, FL 34428; 352-795-4700 Jupiter A little more elegant than the 'shack' name would imply (but only slightly), Little Moir's Food Shack has been a Jupiter staple since 2002. Its unassuming strip-mall location gives no indication of the creative takes on fresh, locally sourced seafood awaiting within; the signature sweet potato–crusted fish has a cult following among locals for good reason. (Pro tip: get it blackened beneath the crust.) With ever-changing daily specials, live music, and an always-packed atmosphere, this casual spot is a local haunt and culinary paradise. 103 S US Highway 1, Suite D3, Jupiter, FL 33477; 561-741-3626 , Pine Island (Bokeelia), and Owned and operated by locals, The Lazy Flamingo has been a Southwest Florida staple for decades. Known for its delightfully tacky vibe, fresh raw oysters, beach-bar cuisine, pink-and-blue 80s-inspired exteriors, and 'the coldest beer in Southwest Florida,' it's the perfect place to unwind after a day in the sun. Popular picks include the fresh beer-steamed seafood, peel-and-eat shrimp, award-winning Caesar salad, and locally famous Flamingo Garlic Bread. multiple locations Key Largo Tucked on a mangrove-lined stretch of Card Sound Road, Alabama Jacks is an 'if you know, you know' situation—the exterior resembles a big blue fishing shed, and there's always a fleet of Harleys parked outside. This wooden waterfront dive has open-air seating, conch fritters, crab cakes, conch salad, cold beers, and bay breezes—what more could you ask? 58000 Card Sound Road, Key Largo, FL 33030; 305-248-8741 and Nocatee Visiting fisherman Billy Corkum revolutionized shrimp fishing all the way back in 1913 and Fernandina Beach was never the same: its inlets and marshes fostered the modern shrimping industry and now, more than a hundred years later, Timoti's continues serving up shrimp harvested in the same manner that helped the Isle of Eight Flags flourish. Order at the window (make sure to ask for extra T's Bam-Bam Sauce), then dine at picnic tables outside; there's a playground for the kids. Their Cajun blackening blend is so good, you'll want to bring it home—and the good news is you can. two locations Stock Island (by ) Located on the Stock Island shrimp docks, Hogfish Bar & Grill is 'where the fishermen eat and locals meet'—a step into salty, old-school Keys. Try the hogfish (any style), of course, but save room for a hearty slice of housemade key lime pie, too. Come for the seafood and stay for the weekend live music and waterfront views that draw a loyal, unpretentious crowd. 6810 Front Street, Stock Island, FL 33040; 305-293-4041 and Leonard Destin founded this eponymous Gulf Coast fishing village in the 1800s; generations later, his great-great-grandson Dewey carries forward the family legacy with restaurants serving grilled, fried, or steamed baskets of Gulf-to-table seafood so good it could only come from a place with fishing in its DNA. Ordering wild-caught Gulf shrimp here is a must. multiple locations Lantana As the oldest waterfront restaurant in Florida (and home to the largest tiki bar in South Florida), Old Key Lime House serves up history alongside its famous key lime pie and fresh seafood. With a sprawling outdoor deck overlooking the Intracoastal Waterway, it's been an ideal spot to enjoy live music and local grub on the water since 1889. Between its vibrant lime-green façade, palapa-roofed huts, and charming historic home setting, it's an icon of Southeast Florida. 300 E Ocean Avenue, Lantana, FL 33462; 561-582-1889 Read the original article on Southern Living

French Bikers Race to Buy Harleys before Possible Tariffs
Sales are brisk at the Villiers-Sur-Marne Harley-Davidson dealership outside Paris, where French bikers reckon they had better hurry if they want the American motorcycle of their dreams before trade war puts them out of reach. "It's now or never," said 55-year-old carpenter Stephane Roger as he inspected the gleaming machines. He had been thinking about buying a Harley anyway, he said. But when he heard the news of US President Donald Trump's "Liberation Day" tariffs, he figured he had better hurry. Motorcycles were on a list of American goods due to be hit by EU tariffs announced this week in response to Trump. After Trump rowed back on some of his tariffs, the EU suspended its levies but said they could still kick in if negotiations fail. "Yeah, I think it's time to buy a Harley," said Theo Mottet, a 30-year-old French soldier. If tariffs put the price up, it will no longer be possible for regular people to own one, he said. "It's going to be an elitist pleasure." Jean-Luc Peschel, a 65-year-old retired musician in a leather blazer and a red necktie, said Harleys conjured up images of Americana that had been swirling around in his head since childhood. "I'm an old man," he said. "Harley-Davidson rocked my childhood. American films make you dream, and so I think there are people who need to dream today."
