Far-right British activist Milo Yiannopoulos has been deported to the United Kingdom, according to the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS). Yiannopoulos was arrested last Thursday by several agents of ICE to the Louisiana airport.

The DHS has explained through a statement on X that the influencer legally entered the country in May 2019, but remained residing there once his authorization expired.

These days everyone has written a line about Dolly Parton. Normal. After seventy years of career, we all have some fond memory of her. In most of the published texts, however, it is particularly relevant that people, instead of mentioning the joy of when they had seen her in concert, the talent she had for writing songs or how impeccable she always was on stage, which is what is usually said about artists, spoke of the sadness they felt for the loss. This, which might seem strange, is not at all. It is the most normal reaction to the loss of Dolly Parton, since throughout her prolific life she won our hearts by doing things for each and every one of us. It is normal that everyone loved her so much. Parton was not just an artist of the kind who periodically come to sell us their material and then lock themselves in their mansion. She never disappeared. She was continuously present in people's lives. Because she was much more than an artist. She was an institution. And we all owe her a great deal of gratitude.

The oldest monarch in Europe, Harald V of Norway, has died at the age of 89. Harald V was admitted last Monday to Oslo National Hospital to be treated for a bacterial infection.

The monarch's health had worsened considerably in recent years: he was already hospitalized in February in Tenerife during a vacation with Queen Sonja for a leg infection and dehydration. He was also admitted to a hospital in Malaysia in 2024 due to an infection.

The youtuber, who resides in Japan, from where he creates content, has been the target of numerous criticisms for days following a video in which he can be seen sexually harassing a Japanese girl who is clearly intoxicated.

They left for the United States six years ago because they could not stand the media pressure or the lack of freedom to which they were subjected in the United Kingdom for being members of the British royal family. On the other side of the Atlantic, for all these years, they have dedicated themselves solely to making their fame even bigger and more polarized through all sorts of pop consumer products such as books or documentaries whose sole interest was the attacks they included against the British royal family. Now, with all this inertia of social hatred they have built up in the United Kingdom from a distance, they will return to live in the country, even though when they were loved and respected there they said it was unbearable for them. Below, we analyze the nonsensical saga that Prince Harry and his wife, Meghan Markle, want us to swallow.

"There is no summer that doesn't involve stepping on my favorite island at least once," says singer Dua Lipa in a post she shared on Instagram. The island is Ibiza (and also Formentera), where the British artist of Kosovar origin has traveled to celebrate her 31st birthday. It's not the first time she's blown out candles in the Pitiusas, because she already did it in 2025. This time, she first took a yacht trip to Formentera with her brothers Rina and Gjin before returning to Ibiza where the celebration with friends and family was scheduled for Saturday. The last few months have been particularly happy for Dua Lipa. At the end of May married in London to actor Callum Turner, in an intimate ceremony, and later held a large wedding party in Palermo, where they invited Elton John, Donatella Versace, Charli XCX, Olivia Dean, and Kevin Turner, among others. That celebration also caused complaints from the local population, annoyed by the privatization of the areas that gave access to the villa where the party was held.

The 59-year-old actress Nicole Kidman told the magazine "Vogue how the first vacation went after her separation from Keith Urban: the interpreter has lived a "European summer" that has taken her from London to Paris, through Italy and to the clubs of Ibiza.

To go unnoticed among the crowd, the actress explained that she resorts to a very simple trick: she wears glasses and, sometimes, a short dark wig.

They are some of the most terrifying images in cinema history: the two twins from The Shining, the adaptation Stanley Kubrick made of the Stephen King classic. They played two girls who had been murdered by their father in the dreadful Overlook Hotel and who appeared to the film's child protagonist. "Hello, Danny. Come play with us, forever, forever and ever" was their only line. But Kubrick's way of filming, and editing that alternated the living girls with flashes of their dismembered bodies, made it traumatic not only for Danny, but also for the viewer. 

Borja Thyssen has projected very different images throughout his extensive media life, which dates back to the day of his own birth. From being a shy and discreet child in the shadow of his iconic mother and adoptive father – Tita Cervera and Baron Heinrich von Thyssen-Bornemisza de Kászon et Impérfalva, respectively – he became a kind of pioneer of the reggaeton malemuscular and tattooed in his younger days to eventually, at 46 years old, become a low-profile figure who only appears in the media voluntarily for matters related to art collecting. This change of direction in his public image, however, has been interrupted by a controversy with an Andorran bank that has spread to all the Spanish gossip media, as expected, in the midst of a news drought.
