Internationally Renowned Italian Singer Dead at 91
WITHOUT END
Ornella Vanoni, an Italian singer who had international hits like “Senza Fine” and “L’appuntamento,” has died. She was 91. Vanoni, who had a career that spanned seven decades, died of cardiac arrest at her home in Milan, according to Italian outlet La Stampa. The country’s prime minister, Giorgia Meloni, paid tribute in a Saturday post on X, writing that Vanoni was an “unmistakable voice of our music.” The singer recorded more than 100 albums, selling over 55 million copies—spanning jazz to pop. She shot to fame in 1961 with the hit song “Senza Fine,” made with her former romantic partner, Genovese singer-songwriter Gino Paolo. She was born in Milan in 1937 and started her career as a theater actress, eventually performing on Broadway in 1964. She went on to collaborate with Gil Evans, Herbie Hancock, and George Benson. She twice won the prestigious Italian music accolade, the Tenco Award, which made her the only Italian singer to achieve it as a songwriter and the only woman to win it twice. In her later years, she became a popular television guest due to her unpredictability and her “complete indifference to political correctness,” according to Italian news agency ANSA.

NEW SUIT
Instagram’s former head of safety and well-being alleged in newly unsealed testimony that Meta had a lax policy for banning accounts that engage in “trafficking of humans for sex.” Vaishnavi Jayakumar testified that it would take 17 strikes on an account for Meta to delete it. “You could incur 16 violations for prostitution and sexual solicitation, and upon the 17th violation, your account would be suspended,” she reportedly testified, according to Time. She added that “by any measure across the industry, [it was] a very, very high strike threshold.” The lawsuit, filed against Instagram, TikTok, Snapchat, and YouTube, represents more than 1,800 plaintiffs. It was filed in the Northern District of California, and the plaintiffs claim that their allegations align with the company’s internal documentation. The suit also alleges Jayakumar reported the platform not having a simple way to report child sexual abuse content, but it was dismissed as being too difficult to solve. In addition, the suit accuses Meta of having “lied to Congress” in 2020 about their platforms heightening levels of anxiety, depression, and loneliness in teen girls, since Meta found conflicting results in a study on users who quit the platforms. Zuckerberg even suggested at one point that “teen time spent be our top goal of 2017,” per a company executive quoted in the brief.

If you’re into beauty, you’ve almost certainly seen that infamous blue and gold bottle that houses stem cell scientist Augustinus Bader’s luxe face cream on social media, in your facialist’s lobby, or in your best friend’s medicine cabinet. There’s a reason (actually… a few reasons) that almost every beauty editor I know raves about this. For the record, I own both versions of the ubiquitous cream—The Cream and The Rich Cream—and I regret to inform you that, yes, they actually are worth every penny. If you haven’t tried the brand yet, now’s the perfect time because you can score the iconic creams (and other products from the brand) for 25 percent off during Dermstore’s Holiday sale. Use the code JOY at checkout to unlock the discount. Best of all? Both The Cream and The Rich Cream are on sale in all three sizes, so if you’re not ready to invest in the larger size, you can test the waters with the 15ML ($76, $96) or 30ML ($148, $185)to see how you like it first.

Just like all of the brand’s science-forward skincare products, The Cream is infused with Augustinus Bader’s proprietary TFC8® (Trigger Factor Complex), “a potent cocktail of high-grade vitamins, amino acids and synthesized versions of skin molecules that is the result of 30 years of innovation and research.” Both versions of The Cream boost the body’s natural renewal process, resulting in softened fine lines, lifted skin, improved texture, and a more balanced moisture level. I, too, can attest to the blue bottle’s skin-enhancing virtues: I’ve been loyal to The Rich Cream for over a year, and it’s the only moisturizer I’ve ever run out of three times. Find out what all the hype is about while it’s discounted at Dermstore during its pre-Black Friday holiday sale.

‘South Park’ Creators’ Kendrick Lamar Movie Hits Snag
INDEFINITELY
A live-action comedy from rapper Kendrick Lamar and South Park creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone no longer has a release date. The untitled feature, which Paramount previously delayed to next year, is now facing an indefinite delay as the trio continues work on it. “It’s true – we’re moving (again). We’re working hard at finishing the movie,” wrote Parker and Stone’s production company, Park County, in a joint statement with Lamar’s company, PGLang. Music video director Dave Free is also a producer on the film with PGLang. The project was first announced in 2024 with a July 4, 2025, release—landing right on Independence Day. However, three months later, the studio delayed it to March 20, 2026. The film is being written by comedian Vernon Chatman, who has written several episodes of South Park. No cast members or plot details have been released. The Parker and Stone hit show is in the midst of releasing its 28th season, while Lamar earlier this month scored nine Grammy nominations.

The 23-year-old model clarified that he “adores” Cyrus in an Instagram story shared on Friday,writing, “I’ve been in the public eye since the day I was born and rarely comment on anything written about me or my family, but recent stories are so startlingly untrue that I want to offer a little clarity.” He continued, “For the record: I adore @billraycycrus and think he’s one of the sweetest men I’ve ever met,” adding, “I love seeing my mom so happy.” Elizabeth Hurley and Cyrus both reposted the story, with Cyrus writing “Love you D Man.” Damian added in the Instagram story, “I have a very modern family—from my cherished father Arun, to my wonderful step siblings,” tagging Brooke, Summer, and Jackson Warne. Elizabeth was engaged to cricketer Shane Warne from 2011 to 2013, and the pair remained close friends until he died of a heart attack in 2022.

Bruce Willis’ Daughter Gives Sad Update on Father’s Decline
SPARKS OF LOVE
Bruce Willis’ daughter Rumer has revealed that her father is not always able to recognize her, because of the effects of dementia. Rumer, 37, his oldest child with first wife Demi Moore, said during a Q&A on Instagram, “I’m so grateful that when I go over there and I give him a hug, whether he recognizes me or not, he can feel the love I’ve given him and I can feel it back from him.” She added that she can “still see a spark of him and he can feel the love that I’m giving.” Her Die Hard star father was first diagnosed with aphasia in March 2022. In February of the following year, his family shared that his diagnosis had advanced to frontotemporal dementia, known as FTD. Rumer Willis told her followers it is “hard” to provide updates on her father’s health because “anybody with FTD is not doing great.” For someone with FTD, “he’s doing okay.” Representatives for Rumer Willis did not immediately respond to the Beast’s request for comment. The actor’s second wife, Emma Heming Willis, 47, told ABC News’ Diane Sawyer in August that she knows he still recognizes her and his five daughters—two with her and three with Moore—because “he lights up” around them. Heming Willis said she doesn’t need her husband to understand she’s his wife, she just wants to feel she has “a connection with him.”

North Korean Soccer Players Turn International Match Into Punch-Up
CRY FOUL
An international soccer match went wildly off the rails before it even began when North Korean players punched their Japanese rivals instead of fist-bumping. Video footage of the game between the two countries’ most-talented under-17 players showed the reclusive dictatorship’s players turning the fist bumps into forceful punches—leaving the Japanese Football Association asking for an investigation, Japanese outlet Chunichi reported. The confrontation took place as the two played at an international tournament in Qatar, with the winner of the game going through to a quarter-final round. Despite the violence, North Korea lost 5-4, and Japan then went on to lose 1-0 to Austria. North Korean adult soccer players have been aggressive before, including in a 2019 World Cup qualifier match against South Korea. Choi Young-il, the vice president of the Korea Football Association, described the match, which ended in a draw, as being “like war.” Their players are only allowed to leave Kim Jong-Un’s dictatorship under close supervision, and under intense pressure to win. In 2010, the World Cup team and its manager were publicly lambasted for six hours on stage after being knocked out of the tournament. Newsweek reported that the manager was forced to work construction after the defeat.

Study Reveals How Much Trump Tariffs Will Hit Christmas
STOCKING SUCKERS
Americans can thank Trump’s tariffs for Christmas being a lot more expensive this year. A study by LendingTree applied Trump’s tariffs to 2024’s Christmas shopping data and found that had the tariffs been in place last year, the average American would have spent an additional $132 on Christmas gifts, on top of the average $902 each the National Retail Federation found shoppers spent. “We estimate consumers and retailers would have faced an extra $40.6 billion burden from gift purchases,“ said the study. ”Consumers would have shouldered an estimated $28.6 billion, while retailers would have absorbed $12.0 billion.” The numbers are particularly troubling for Americans looking to buy electronics and clothing this holiday season, two of the most popular—and most imported—categories of goods. The study finds that with tariffs, the average American consumer would have spent $186 more on electronics and $82 more on clothing in 2024. Trump’s tariffs are currently still in place but the Supreme Court is preparing to rule on whether they can be legally imposed, in a case which could derail his economic agenda.

Ancient Hermetically Sealed Sarcophagus Opened After 1,700 Years
GRAVE DISCOVERY
Archaeologists have opened the hermetically sealed sarcophagus of a young Roman woman that was untouched since she was buried. The intact tomb was found underneath the capital of Hungary, Budapest, in the Óbuda district. It had not been looted, and the skeleton inside was entirely uninterfered with, offering researchers a valuable insight into life 1,700 years ago. The New York Post reports that “glass vessels, bronze figures and 140 coins,” were found inside. The find was made by researchers from the Budapest History Museum in a quarter of the ancient Roman city of Aquincum that had been vacated in the third century. Gabriella Fényes, lead archeologist on the excavation, said, “The peculiarity of the finding is that it was a hermetically sealed sarcophagus. It was not disturbed previously, so it was intact.” The size of the skeleton, along with the items found, suggests it was a young woman inside the sarcophagus. They included the “items given to the deceased by her relatives for her eternal journey,” Fényes said. “The deceased was buried very carefully by her relatives. They must have really loved who they buried here.”

Grizzly Bear Attack on Schoolkids and Teachers Leaves 11 Injured
SURPRISE ATTACK
A bear attack on a Canadian walking trail has left 11 people injured, including children. An “aggressive” grizzly bear set upon the group, a mix of teachers and school children, in Bella Coola, 435 miles northwest of Vancouver, British Columbia, leaving two people critically injured. Authorities are now hunting down the animal that fled after the attack. The Nuxalk Nation, the government of the Nuxalk people of Bella Coola, released a statement, urging people to stay in their homes as the beast is hunted. “Officers are armed. Remain indoors and off the highway,” they said in a statement. Authorities said that two people had serious injuries, alongside the two who sustained critical damage. Parent Veronica Schooner said one heroic teacher was badly hurt while trying to protect the children. He “got the whole brunt of it,” she told AP. She said that the bear got so close to her son that he felt its fur. “But it was going after somebody else,” Schooner said. The mother added that some of the children, a mix of fourth- and fifth-graders, were hit by bear spray in the melee. “He keeps crying for his friends,” she added.

‘Real Housewives of New York City’s’ Oldest Member Announces Exit
BRAVO AND FAREWELL
The Real Housewives of New York City cast member Jenna Lyons announced Friday that she is leaving the show. “The rumors… Are true,” Lyons, 57, wrote on Instagram, before explaining her decision to exit the reality show after two seasons. “I was grateful to be asked to join season 16 of RHONY ‘as a friend of’—knowing my personal life was not really available to be filmed, we agreed that made sense. And after thinking it through I have made the difficult decision not return to the show. I would be the oldest and only openly gay woman on the show and feel like this is an opportunity for a new dynamic to emerge.” Lyons, a former J.Crew president, added that she has “so much respect and gratitude to the Entire BRAVO team who produced the show with grace and care.” Among those she thanked were executive producer and host Andy Cohen, as well as “all the fans who have said hi on the street, asked for a photo, supported me here on instagram THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU !!!!” The Bravo series, which premiered in 2008, is expected to reach its 300th episode this season.
