Shawn Mendes debuts new tattoo and reminds us he has one heck of a chest
Shawn Mendes has added some more ink to his body, but this time, fan reactions have been... mixed. The tattoo, made up of a bald eagle on Mendes' sternum, was introduced to the world on April 13 by LA-based tattoo artist Kane Navasard on Instagram. It is captioned, 'Soaring to new heights, for my bro @shawnmendes.' — (@) The comments under the post were mixed, with some saying it's 'an incredible and detailed work' and others saying, 'Everyone is lying here, the tattoo was horrible.' Historically, Mendes' ink has had significant meaning for him, including the 'Good Luck' tattoo he had penned in 2019 as a sign of good spirits for the people who walk behind him and the 'Dos Reis' tattoo on the back of his neck to signify his bloodline. Others include the lightbulb on his arm, which symbolizes his Illuminate album, and 'Good Boy' on his arm, which is a tribute to his dog. Still, besides some of the negative feedback, fans are also oggling Mendes' toned chest and abs in the photo. If we didn't know it was to debut a new tattoo, we just would have been distracted anyway. At the time of this writing, Mendes has yet to publicly speak about his tattoo or its meaning. Although it does resemble the tattoo under Rihanna's breast line, it still aesthetically fits in and matches his other tattoos, so not all of the hate toward him is warranted. As it is, traditionally, bald eagles symbolize strength, courage, freedom, and immortality. They've become a staple in American history since they're only indigenous to North America. Keep scrolling for some reactions—good and bad—to Mendes' new ink, and look for when he addresses what it means. — (@) "Monday morning news: Katy Perry and Gayle Kind went to space and Shawn Mendes got an eagle underboob tattoo" — (@) "It's funny how every new Shawn Mendes tattoo is somehow the most Shawn Mendes tattoo ever lmao" — (@) "if you happen to look very closely, you will notice that shawn mendes has a new tattoo" — (@) "I will eagle-ly suck it until his soul went to cloud 9" — (@) "every time he gets a tattoo shawn twt gets divided over it for like 3 days" — (@) "gonna look like an upside down moustache in 3 years but still would" — (@) "Holy sh*t!!! I love this" — (@) "His body is perfect without the ink. It's like spray painting the statue of David." — (@) "What tattoo? all I see is hairy chest." — (@) "bumper sticker on a bentley." — (@) "The hate towards this man is so forced."

GLOBAL INDIGENOUS: ‘Unprecedented' move raises land concerns in Brazil
Deusdedit RuhangariyoSpecial to ICT Around the world: Brazil's Supreme Court pulls mining on Indigenous land from proposed legislation, Rio Tinto invests $926 million with Indigenous businesses in Australia and a Mi'kmaw artist in Canada uses art to spur activism and promote Indigenous sovereignty Brazil's top court removed mining from a controversial bill on Indigenous lands, but critics warn that compensation for settlers still threatens the land demarcation process, Mongabay reported on April 3. SUPPORT INDIGENOUS JOURNALISM.. In February, Justice Gilmar Mendes of Brazil's Supreme Federal Court presented a draft bill allowing the federal government to carry out activities of 'relevant public interest' on Indigenous lands — such as mining, infrastructure, and telecommunications — if no 'technical and locational alternative' existed. The proposal was immediately condemned by Indigenous leaders, rights advocates, and the United Nations as a severe setback. Critics called it an 'unprecedented' move from the Supreme Court, which is tasked with protecting minority rights under Brazil's Constitution. The court declined to comment to Mongabay. However, on March 27, Mendes' assistant Diego Veras announced that the mining provision would be removed and debated separately. 'The removal of the mining issue from the proposed bill is what really had to happen,' said Luis Ventura, executive secretary of the Missionary Council for Indigenous Peoples, according to Mongabay. 'Mining in Indigenous territories clearly attacks the rights of Indigenous peoples to life, territory, self-organization, and exclusive use of their natural resources.' Still, the bill retained other controversial points, including compensation for non-Indigenous occupants on demarcated land — potentially stalling the already slow land demarcation process. Critics argue that allowing occupants to remain until they receive compensation legitimizes land invasions and undermines Indigenous sovereignty. The bill stems from a legal battle over the marco temporal (time frame) thesis, which argued that Indigenous land claims are only valid if the land was physically occupied at the time the Constitution was enacted in 1988. The thesis ignored historical displacement and the nomadic traditions of many Indigenous groups. Though the Supreme Court rejected the thesis in 2023, Congress passed a law enshrining it, prompting renewed legal debate. In April 2024, Mendes halted all lawsuits related to the issue and created a conciliation chamber to seek compromise, drawing criticism from Indigenous advocates. 'There is no possibility of reconciling fundamental rights,' said Ventura, according to Mongabay. 'Even with the withdrawal of mining, maintaining the conciliation chamber is a serious mistake.' On March 27, the Federal Attorney General's Office proposed a presidential decree excluding mining but allowing tourism and economic activities led by Indigenous communities. Compensation would be considered only under strict conditions, such as proven good-faith occupation before Oct. 5, 1988, and a valid property title. Agribusiness interests strongly opposed removing the time frame. The battle over Indigenous land rights will take center stage at the Free Land Encampment in Brasília, which was set to run from April 7-11, under the banner: 'In defense of the Constitution and life.' Rio Tinto has boosted spending with Australian businesses, with Indigenous supplier expenditure growing faster than other national and local suppliers in 2024, National Indigenous Times reported on April 4. Rio Tinto has deepened its commitment to Australian suppliers, significantly increasing its spend to over $17.7 billion in the last financial year — a 9.9 percent increase compared to the previous year. This surge in procurement benefited more than 6,000 suppliers nationwide, with a notable emphasis on boosting partnerships with Indigenous enterprises. In 2024, over $926 million was directed to 182 Indigenous suppliers across Australia, marking a 27 percent increase from 2023. Of that, $671 million was invested specifically in Traditional Owner businesses with whom Rio Tinto has Indigenous Land Use Agreements, delivering tangible economic benefits to the communities connected to its operations. The company also increased its local supplier expenditure by 14.8 percent, reaching $1.3 billion. Rio Tinto's Australia Chief Executive, Kellie Parker, emphasized the importance of Indigenous and regional businesses to the company's long-term success. 'We recognize the important role these Australian businesses play in creating jobs, strengthening local economies and supporting our operations,' she said, according to National Indigenous Times. 'That's why we continue to increase our investment with them. Their contributions help keep local communities strong. Our Indigenous partnerships drive economic growth and strengthen the communities they serve.' As Mel Beaulieu readied for their winter residency at Beaverbrook Art Gallery in Fredericton, New Brunswick, the world felt foreboding, CBC News reported on April 5. Beaulieu, a queer artist from the Metepenagiag First Nation, often finds their work shaped by the political climate. That influence deepened in January during their residency at the art gallery just as Donald Trump was sworn in as the 47th president of the United States. Almost immediately, Trump began targeting transgender and gender-diverse people. He signed orders recognizing only two sexes, male and female, and moved to ban transgender individuals from the military. These actions sent shockwaves through the transgender community in the U.S. and raised alarms in Canada, too. "Now isn't the time for allyship that is silent or allyship that is passive," Beaulieu said, according to CBC News. "I think people, especially in Canada, think that those issues don't exist here." As a transgender Mi'kmaw artist, Beaulieu worries about growing anti-trans rhetoric online. 'I'm seeing the kind of escalating hate happening where people are more bold in the things they say to me or message me,' they shared, according to CBC News. At 29, Beaulieu works across many mediums — beadwork, illustration, 3D printing, teaching, even virtual reality. Their children's book, 'Animals at Play in Mi'kma'ki,' blends language and identity. Their beadwork has appeared in exhibitions across North America. One powerful piece, Protect Your Heart, features a white beaded heart surrounded by bold lettering and barbed wire. At its center is a golden double-curved motif, a Wabanaki symbol tied to nature and connection. Beaulieu began a major long-term project while serving the residency — life-size wooden church windows filled with their beadwork. The installation explores the Doctrine of Discovery, a centuries-old belief that allowed Christians to claim lands not inhabited by other Christians. Though the Vatican officially rejected the doctrine in 2023, its colonial legacy still lingers. 'It feels like if this project's going to be here in seven years, I'm still going to be here,' Beaulieu said, according to CBC News. 'In seven years, I'm still going to be making art. In seven years, queer people will still be here.' My final thoughts are in Brazil, where a decision to remove mining from a controversial draft bill on Indigenous lands is a step in the right direction, but it's not enough. The bill still includes loopholes that could delay or even block the land demarcation process, especially by allowing non-Indigenous settlers to stay on demarcated lands until they receive compensation. This shifts the focus from justice to negotiation, turning what should be a protected right into something that's up for debate. What's even more troubling is the court's attempt to resolve this through a 'conciliation chamber,' which critics say waters down the Supreme Court's responsibility to protect constitutional rights. As Indigenous advocate Luis Ventura said, you can't negotiate basic human rights. By pushing for compromise instead of standing firm on principles, the court risks undermining its own legitimacy — and the safety and dignity of the communities it's supposed to protect. The government's idea of handling this through a presidential decree instead of a full legislative process is clever but risky. While it avoids some of the political gridlock in Congress, it doesn't offer long-term protection. The powerful agribusiness lobby is already pushing for a constitutional amendment to solidify the time frame rule, which would strip many Indigenous communities of their ancestral lands. If Brazil is serious about justice, the Supreme Court needs to do more than just manage political pressure, it needs to lead. That means clearly declaring the time frame thesis unconstitutional and making sure Indigenous rights are protected without conditions. Indigenous peoples have waited too long for full recognition. They need action now, not more negotiations over what should already be guaranteed. Our stories are worth telling. Our stories are worth sharing. Our stories are worth your support.

The Beatles: New Rumor Suggests Potential Timeline for Sam Mendes' Movies
A new update regarding Sam Mendes' movies has emerged online. Sam Mendes is currently working on four movies that will be about The Beatles. It was recently confirmed that the films will star Harris Dickinson as John Lennon, Paul Mescal as Paul McCartney, Joseph Quinn as George Harrison, and Barry Keoghan as Ringo Starr. It was also recently announced that all four Beatles movies will be released in United States theaters in April 2028. Appearing on an episode of The Big Picture podcast, Puck's Matt Belloni noted that there's 'speculation' that the movies could 'tell the story of The Beatles sequentially.' 'Meaning, the Paul story will be the first four or five years, the rise to fame, and that kind of thing,' he said. 'Then, they bring the other stuff in so that John's movie is about his relationship with Yoko and his death, ultimately. And, then, Ringo is the aftermath and the break-up, so it's sort of told through his perspective. That makes sense to me. Maybe they'll jump around or maybe it'll be the same story, just from different perspectives. I don't know.' Sony Pictures has not yet officially commented on the timeline of Mendes' Beatles movies, meaning this is just a rumor and speculation at this time. The official logline for The Beatles — A Four-Film Cinematic Event reads, 'Each man has his own story, but together they are legendary.' How the movies will be released also remains unclear at this time, as Sony has not yet announced if all four films will arrive in theaters on the same day or if a new one will come out once a week for a whole month. Mendes' Neal Street Productions will produce the Beatles movies in association with Apple Corps for Sony Pictures. Mendes serves as producer along with Pippa Harris, Julie Pastor, and Alexandra Derbyshire.
