Cover-Up review – atrocity exposer Seymour Hersh, journalist legend, gets a moment in the spotlight

-
Hersh’s record on uncovering the big stories, from My Lai to Abu Ghraib, speaks for itself. This documentary watches him at work: dogged, nonconformist and combative Renowned investigative journalist Seymour Hersh was never played in a film by Robert Redford or Dustin Hoffman, like the Washington Post’s Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein. But as this documentary portrait argues, he’s probably more important than either. Hersh has a longer record of breaking big stories, from the My Lai massacre in Vietnam to torture by US army personnel at Abu Ghraib prison in Iraq – the latter a historic scoop underscored by the stomach-turning photos which Hersh brought to light. Hersh is asked if Abu Ghraib would have been the story it was without those pictures and replies: “No pictures, no story.” Well, maybe. But his other scoops had no pictures of this kind. One incidental thing Abu Ghraib showed was how ubiquitous digital photography became at the beginning of the century; how easy it was to take...

-
The singer-songwriter, who is 32 years old, released her most recent studio album, Midnights, on Friday, and she observed as it immediately earned the record of the most-streamed playlist in a single day in the record of Spotify. In addition, on October 22nd, before the clock could strike midnight, Taylor Swift became the artist with the most streams of any album on Spotify in a single day.

For Kim Kardashian’s 42nd Birthday, The Festivities Began On Kylie Jenner’s Private Jet

-
Over the weekend, Kim Kardashian and Ko. were compelled to celebrate her 42nd birthday at an In-N-Out Burger in Los Angeles. Unfortunately, this meant they did not get to eat at Carbone in Las Vegas or attend a concert by Usher as they had planned. On Saturday night, the reality star-turned-billionaire business mogul was scheduled to spend lavishly at the Dolby Live residency of the Grammy winner at Park MGM, where he could have gourmet Italian cuisine and dance to the artist's greatest hits. But as she was on her way to Sin City aboard her sister Kylie Jenner's $72 million private aircraft, Kardashian was advised that the pilot could not land safely owing to hazardous weather that included gusty winds of up to 60 miles per hour. Because the jet was unable to land because of the wind, it appears that our party at Carbone and the Usher show won't be going forward, and we will be returning home instead. Kardashian, who turned 42 on Friday, shared her thoughts on the matter th...

-
It was stated that Jolie, now 47 years old, will play the role of Maria Callas, a Greek opera singer born in the United States. The film will be directed by Pablo Larran. According to a news report, the new documentary will be based on factual stories and will recount the turbulent, magnificent, and heartbreaking tale of the life of the world's finest opera singer during her dying days in Paris in the 1970s.

In The Wake Of Explosive Allegations Made By The Actress’s Former Nanny, A Los Angeles Dog Shelter Is Standing Up For Olivia Wilde

-
The dog rescue group based in Los Angeles that Olivia Wilde used to get her Golden Retriever named Gordon from wants to clear up some misconceptions about his past and explain what indeed occurred to him. On Friday, Maeday Rescue took to Instagram to explain the choice made by the director of Don't Worry Darling to find a new home for Gordy in the wake of explosive allegations made by the actress's former nanny. They described Wilde, who is 38 years old, as a prominent advocate for animal rescue and a conscientious pet owner who behaved out of compassion and affection for him. According to Maeday, Gordon and four of his littermates were rescued by the charity in 2018 from a shelter that shall remain nameless. The rescue's founder, Natalie, took them in and fostered them while feeding them formula until the group could find suitable homes for the rest of their lives. Wilde took one of the four puppies under his wing when he was just two months old, provided him with lots of ...

What Zoe Saldana Discovered About Herself While Writing Her Very Brave, Ground-Up International Love Story

-
The 44-year-old actress tells PEOPLE she felt a kinship with her character in From Scratch, inspired by the novel of the same name by Tembi Locke, about a Black American woman's experience of marrying into an unacceptable Sicilian family. It's a constant for me that I find humor in the struggles she faced as a non-Italian lady married to a very Italian man. I adore how this series of events just keeps going on and on. Saldana states that over time, she has developed the ability to accept a significant portion of it. The Avatar actress married Italian artist Marco Perego in 2013. They have three children: Zen, 5, and twins Bowie Ezio and Cy Aridio, 7. When you marry somebody who brings 4,000 years' worth of history, art, and philosophy into the relationship, it's not for the faint of heart, that's for sure. And great meals. It is a lot to deal with in just one day. Amahle Amy Wheeler, played by Saldana in the film From Scratch, is an American student who travels to I...

-
The Crazy In Love singer, who is 41 years old, and her husband, Jay-Z, attended the posh party held at the Barker Hangar in Santa Monica, California, on Saturday night. The couple drew a lot of attention on the red carpet thanks to the singer's outfit, which was reminiscent of classic Hollywood. This year's event, which her mother, Tina Knowles-Lawson, co-founded, and stepfather Richard Lawson, was centered around the theme Harlem Nights, which honored clothes from the 1920s through the 1950s. Beyoncé radiated elegance while wearing a black and white strapless gown by Gucci. The dress had a black satin bodice and a lengthy feathered train. In addition, the bust of the figure-hugging dress was embellished with two glittering stars, which may have been intended to pay homage to the singer's home state of Texas. Beyoncé finished off her appearance with hot pink satin gloves, black cat-eye sunglasses, striking earrings by Lorraine Schwartz, and a sleek purse by Dolce & Gabb...

For The Holidays, You May Once Again Purchase Rihanna’s Fenty Beauty Fragrance

-
Since Rihanna introduced her debut fragrance, Fenty Eau de Parfum ($140), in 2021, demand for the scent has been so high that it has already been depleted not once but repeatedly. But right now, in addition to refilling the scent, the Bad Gal has launched a limited-edition Fenty scarf looped around the characteristic amber-colored bottle as part of a unique gift box that costs $140. The fragrance, which was created by Rihanna and was influenced by the places she has been, is a mix of sweet and spicy aromas. Its key components include magnolia, musk, tangerine, and Bulgarian rose.

-
According to insiders, tensions are rising between Tom Brady and Gisele Bündchen as they go through the process of ending their marriage. In an exclusive report, Page Six revealed that Bündchen had retained the services of the most successful divorce attorney in Florida to take on Brady as the couple appears to be marching toward the end zone.
