David Beckham, 46, former British soccer player, cheated over the Christmas family photo. In the picture he posted on Instagram, he can be seen with his wife Victoria, 47, and their four children in stylish clothes in front of the Christmas tree.
If you look closely, you will discover: Beckham stands slightly on tiptoe. Apparently to make yourself a little bigger. Unsuccessful – son Romeo, 19, who is standing right next to him, towers over him anyway.
Britney Spears, 40, American pop singer, is pensive at the end of the year. “I was hurt on all sides for no reason and my family hurt me,” she wrote in a long Instagram post about the fight against her guardianship. First of all, she repressed her situation. “Then it came full circle, my heart took the lead – and I was a lioness”. Spears has been under guardianship since 2008 after breaking down due to personal and professional problems. She repeatedly accused her family and caregiver of controlling and enriching her life. In November she regained her freedom through a court decision. Spears wrote that it helped her remember her successes and pray to God.
Day by Johnson, 11, US student, saved the lives of two people in one day. The sixth grader from Muskogee, Oklahoma, helped a classmate and then a woman whose house was on fire in early December. The classmate threatened to suffocate on a bottle cap, Dayvon Johnson made the “secret” handle and saved him in this way, as reported by CNN, citing local media. That evening he saw a burning house and helped an elderly resident from her porch to the car. Now the eleven-year-old has been honored by the police and his school – with three awards in one day.
Jörg Pilawa, 56, moderator, can live well without big celebrations. “I’ve had enough parties in my life,” he told the Editorial network Germany (RND). “I feel more sorry for the younger generation, we have already demanded a lot from them during the pandemic.” He hopes that “the politicians will realize this and not only thank them for it, but maybe throw a few goodies to the young people in 2022.”
Nicholas of Myra, Saint with a Saarland post office, has answered more letters than ever this year. The 44 volunteers at the Nikolaus post office in St. Nikolaus answered 30,711 letters from children from a total of 43 countries. That was 866 letters more than in the previous year, announced the St. Nikolaus Festival Committee. Most of the mail, around 90 percent, came from Germany, followed by Taiwan (1083), France (374) and China (352). The responses abroad were translated into English, French, Italian, Spanish, Russian, Polish, Chinese and, as of this year, into Hungarian. For more than 50 years, children have been writing to St. Nicholas in the small town in the municipality of Großrosseln near the French border, and every letter is answered.
