Her hair was styled down in long, loose waves while her complexion was accentuated with a smoky coat of eye shadow and blush. Julia, who is known for her eccentric and bold outfits, rose to fame after briefly dating Kanye West. Julia reflected on the high-profile split, while making an on CBS Mornings with Vito Schnabel, her co-star on The Trainers. 'I was going through a lot during that time. I was coming off of, like, a very public breakup. It was horrible,' Fox lamented to Gayle King. 'And I just wanted to go to work and be able to just be somebody else. I loved being her. I feel like I have so much in common with her in terms of you know being, like, overlooked or not taken seriously or just dismissed. 'And I feel like that's why our characters kind of just, like, had this unique love story.' Meanwhile, audiences can next catch Julia as the seductive Elsie White in Justin Tipping's NFL satanic horror film HIM - hitting US theaters September 19 and UK cinemas October 3 - produced by Jordan Peele. The Down the Drain singer has also been hard at work producing and judging the second season of her design competition OMG Fashun, but Peacock postponed the May release 'due to unexpected delays' but it's 'still in active production.' On the personal front, the 360 video vixen has primary custody of her four-year-old son Valentino from her three-year marriage to Brooklyn private pilot Peter Artemiev, which ended in 2022.

Tearful Kim Kardashian pleads with Kanye West: 'your personality was not like this a few years ago!' as he admits he'd rather 'be dead than be on medication' amid bipolar diagnosis in explosive documentary trailer
Kim Kardashian broke down in tears as she pleaded with her then husband Kanye West: 'your personality was not like this a few years ago!' in an explosive documentary trailer about the controversial rapper. The businesswoman, 44, could be heard getting upset during a heated argument with Kanye in a video teasing the upcoming In Whose Name? documentary. The beginning of the trailer, which was released on YouTube on Wednesday, showed a tense moment between Kardashian and West, who now goes by Ye, when they were still married. With her voice audibly shaking and seemingly sobbing Kim says to him: 'Your personality was not like this a few years ago!' The rapper then admitted that he stopped taking his medication for his bipolar disorder: 'I'm off my meds for five months now.' He later added: 'I'd rather be dead than to be on medication. Either they destroy me or I destroy it.' The pair were previously married from 2014 to 2022 and share four children: North, Saint, Chicago and Psalm. Their divorce proceedings and ongoing co-parenting dynamic has made headlines over the years - even back to when their marriage started breaking down in the public eye and as he continued sharing offensive social media posts years after their split. He previously opened up about begin diagnosed with bipolar disorder in 2016 after being hospitalized for a psychiatric emergency. However, earlier this year, West said he was misdiagnosed and has now been diagnosed as autistic, which is not a mental illness. Audio clips were stitched together with West talking and at other points, his voice was even yelling: 'It's a calling by the universe. Never tell me I'm going to wake up one day and have nothing.' Then, the then-couple could be seen sitting on a couch together, facing each other. After what appeared to be another tense conversation, she calmly said to him, 'We could talk about that later, but...' before he interrupts her: ''It ain't no but.' 'When I went to the hospital and one of the ideas was to do a church,' he narrated alongside clips of his Easter Sunday Service performance at the 2019 Coachella Music Festival, where he appeared to be crying as Chance the Rapper consoled him. 'Yeah, I was just being embarrassed or ashamed to cry, man,' he narrated alongside more clips of his activities over the years, including making music, filming artistic videos, spending time with his young children and designing fashion. In the trailer, West could be seen with their kids and traveling with their eldest daughter North West when she was a toddler Many of his recent controversies were not included in the trailer. Preceding the most controversial ones, one clip showed when he declared his presidential run and held up a sign. He was also notably still wearing his wedding ring 'When we're at the prisons, professing how Jesus can set you free, it's true,' an audio clip of a sermon played over clips of inmates in prison during church service. 'Thank you, Jesus. I decided to run,' the rapper said as a clip of West holding up a sign that read, 'YE4PRESIDENT,' flashed across the screen. In the trailer, West could be seen with their kids and traveling with their eldest daughter North West when she was a toddler. At one point in the explosive trailer, he was heard yelling: 'I almost killed my daughter.' Going back to how he stopped taking his medication, he was also heard declaring: 'I'd rather be dead than to be on medication. Either they destroy me or I destroy it.' 'It's a sad dream,' Kardashian's voice made one final appearance as West continued to vent. 'They're killing our ability to think outside of the box. And I'm almost like a masochist,' he said. 'I like whatever I want, when I want. It's worse.' In the concluding clip, he proclaimed: 'You know the best thing about being an artist and bipolar? Anything you do and say is an art piece.' The trailer showed clips preceding when West got married to Bianca Censori, so it is unclear if the documentary will feature the 30-year-old Yeezy architect-turned-model. He held sermons of his own during that time, holding exclusive, spiritual gatherings to perform gospel music alongside his choir One of West's passions is creative direction and fashion design as seen in montages of him posing with hundreds of sneakers from his time working with Adidas and making Yeezy designs Later, another clip showed him during a quiet moment in his life as he traveled alone The trailer was riddled with artistic cinematography showing West around the world and even posing in the middle of the street in Paris The upcoming documentary was directed and produced by Nico Ballesteros, a filmmaker who started working as an intern for West at age 18 and filmed him over six years. The summary of the trailer read: 'Over six years, 18-year-old Nico Ballesteros captured an unfiltered portrait of Ye, formerly known as Kanye West, offering unprecedented access into the private and public life of one of the most controversial figures in modern culture. 'The film charts Ye's meteoric rise to becoming the richest Black man in American history and the choices, contradictions, and collapses that have since redefined his legacy,' the description continued. 'Featuring appearances by Kim Kardashian and other influential figures from Ye's inner circle, the documentary explores the razor's edge between creative genius and self-destruction, revealing the cost of freedom in a fame-obsessed world.'

Bianca Censori shares rare photo of husband Kanye West during what appears to be a romantic vacation following shock split rumours
Bianca Censori proved on Wednesday she and Kanye West are still going strong by sharing a photo of the US rapper enjoying a tropical vacation with her. The architect, 30, posted a photo to her Instagram Stories which showed the hitmaker, 48, sitting on a jet ski in crystal-clear water. A tropical mountain acted as the backdrop in the distance as Kanye faced away from the camera, seemingly looking down at something in his hands. Bianca could not be seen in the photo, but may have been the one taking it as it was posted to her social media account. It comes after reports emerged earlier this year the controversial couple had split. Kanye appeared to hint in March that he and Bianca parted ways when he leaked a new track titled Bianca—in which he alleged she ' tried to get him committed'. The album, which is titled WW3, has not yet been released, but DJ Akademiks—who recently conducted an interview with Kanye—also shared a sample of the song. The lyrics to the song were uploaded to Genius, and seemed to confirm the ongoing rumours at the time. However, it would seem the pair had never separated—or reunited after a brief split— as they have been seen together several times since. It comes after fans yet again expressed concerns for Bianca when she shared several images to Instagram on Tuesday which showed her standing in a bubble. She left little to the imagination as she struck a series of poses in a revealing silver leotard, which featured a plunging neckline and a pair of matching-coloured pumps. Many of her followers flocked to the comments to express their concern amid fears she is being 'controlled' by her husband Kanye. 'Is the bubble representing Kanye? The bubble looks a little suffocating,' one person commented. 'You're a beautiful woman and you can do better for yourself,' someone else urged. 'This dude got her out here looking like a clown,' another added, while one said: 'OMG please stop, you're ridiculous.' Concerns for Bianca's wellbeing have been raised several times since she married Kanye in 2022, with the architect often parading around in various states of undress. Kanye married Yeezy architect Bianca in January 2023 in what was thought to be a non-legal wedding as it appeared they did not file a marriage certificate. However in mid-October 2023, it was reported that they did in fact get legally married, per Us Weekly.

Kim Kardashian declares Kanye West's personality has ‘changed' in trailer for intimate new documentary
Kanye West is offering an intimate glimpse into his life, amid growing psychological struggles, in a new documentary titled In Whose Name?. The film, from 18-year-old filmmaker Nico Ballesteros, features exclusive, never-before-seen footage of West — now known as Ye — captured by Ballesteros across six years. The documentary's first trailer, released Wednesday, opens with the rapper declaring in a voiceover: 'I'm off my meds for five months now.' 'Your personality was not like this a few years ago,' West's ex-wife, Kim Kardashian, responds, audibly distressed. 'It's a calling by the universe,' the 'Flashing Lights' artist's voice continues over a montage of him in an open flatland and riding in a car next to his and Kardashian's eldest daughter, North. 'Never tell me one day I'm gonna wake up with nothing,' he adds. An additional sequence of clips follows, showing West hosting one of his infamous Sunday Service events, visiting a prison, holding up a homemade 'Ye4President' poster, and telling a crowd at a 2020 rally that he 'almost' had his daughter aborted. 'I would rather be dead than be on medication…' he vows. 'Either they destroy me or I destroy it.. I'm almost like a masochist… I write whatever I want when I want! It's words!' The teaser concludes with West noting that 'the best thing about being an artist and bipolar' is 'anything you do and say is an art piece.' West — who in recent years has suffered a public downfall over shocking antisemitic and racist social media rants — first spoke about his 'mental condition' when promoting his 2018 album Ye. In the song 'Yikes,' he described his bipolar disorder as a 'superpower.' He has since insisted that the previous bipolar diagnosis was inaccurate and that his erratic behavior is due to autism. In Whose Name? 'reveals a side of Ye the world was never meant to see — raw, unfiltered, and suspended in the complexity of fame, faith, mental health, and power,' an official description reads. 'What began as a silent observation evolved into a profound journey of artistic and personal growth,' it adds. 'Immersed in Ye's world of extremes, [Ballesteros] bore witness to brilliance and breakdowns, triumphs and turmoil, but also observed the paranoia and intensity that increasingly shaped Ye's world.' In Whose Name? is set to release in select theaters September 19.
