Gloria Sophie Burkandt, 23, German model, is proud of her Prime Minister’s father’s outfit. The criticism of Markus Söder’s suit when welcoming US President Joe Biden “was not justified at all,” she said picture. “I was proud that he wore that.” Apparently, she herself was not entirely innocent: the blue tie that her father wore “I think I even gave it to him. I was even prouder of it. It’s very fine”. Söder had worn the blue tie with a jacket when he received Biden before the start of the G-7 summit at Schloss Elmau near Munich Airport, drawing ridicule from netizens.
Beyonce, 40, US singer, rides almost naked on a glittering horse. At least for the cover of their new album “Renaissance”. The pose on the horse is reminiscent of the cover of the July issue of the UK Vogue, for which Beyoncé also had herself photographed on a horse. “Working on this album gave me a place to dream,” the singer wrote on Instagram. “She allowed me to feel free and adventurous at a time when little else was moving.” She hopes her music will bring joy to her fans and inspire them to dance. “And that you feel as unique, strong and sexy as you are.”
Sylvester Stallone, 75, US actor, pretty much wrecked his body while filming action. “I had five operations on my back, had spinal problems, my shoulder, my knees – over the years that was 30 operations! Today my only goal is not to hurt myself anymore,” he said picture. When he was shooting Rocky II in the late 1970s, he even tore a vein in his chest: “I got 60 stitches, it looked bad.” He takes better care of his body now. “I do a lot of Pilates or stretch with rubber bands to stay flexible and mobile.”
Alan Todd, British pigeon owner, found his carrier pigeon Bob in Alabama. Bob was to fly the roughly 400-mile route from the British Channel Islands to Gateshead in northern England. Instead of getting there, however, Bob turned up in the United States and was identified in Alabama by his ankle ring, reports the BBC. “He certainly wouldn’t have flown all the way, he probably ended up on a ship that took him,” said pigeon owner Todd. Until Todd picks Bob up, he remains in the care of a couple in Alabama.
