EastEnders actor Jamie Borthwick has had his driving ban overturned after making an appeal on Thursday (March 3).The actor, best known for playing Jay Brown in the BBC soap, was originally handed a six-month driving ban and six penalty points on his driving license at Romford Magistrates’ Court on January 31.Croydon Nightingale Court then heard that as the actor already had six points, he was handed the driving ban.He was also fined £660 and made to pay a further £166 in court costs, The Mirror reports.But now that ban has been reduced to two months as the star claimed he would be “recognised on public transport” - and has to ferry his great uncle and aunt to their hospital appointments.The actor was originally having to arrange alternate transport to take him to work at BBC Studios after being clocked speeding in his Mercedes at 52mph in a 30mph zone in Romford.Borthwick admitted to speeding at a Single Justice Procedure on December 1 last year.At the actor’s appeal, his lawyers explained that the great aunt and uncle he takes to appointments are “like grandparents to him”.His lawyer Alex Owen told the court: “The circumstances of this offence are the road is a dual carriageway which isn’t signposted at 30mph limit but of course the presence of street lights indicates that. He was unaware of that at the time, he was wrongly under the impression it was a 50mph limit.“It took place in the midafternoon and it was relatively quiet at the time.

(CNN)History has a way of repeating itself.I've written about controversy surrounding White actors portraying characters of color -- a practice that has existed throughout Hollywood's history -- multiple times.In the most recent iteration of this pattern, Israeli-born actress Gal Gadot has been cast to play Cleopatra, ancient queen of Egypt, in an upcoming film that will reunite her with "Wonder Woman" director Patty Jenkins.This is not a new story, but it is a complicated one.Because while Cleopatra ruled over Egypt, there has long been debate over whether she had African ancestry, given that she hailed from a long line of Macedonian Greeks.

Gal Gadot was once a beauty queen.And in the November issue of Vanity Fair, the 35-year-old Wonder Woman actress said she did not enjoy the fit. In 2004 she became Miss Israel but tried her hardest not to get the Miss Universe crown that same year.'Oh, my God,' said the 5ft10in star.

Wonder Woman 1984 was one among the most anticipated movies of 2020. Fans of the DC female superhero were eager to see Gal Gadot wear her golden armour and present a memorable experience.

Gal Gadot won millions of hearts post her stint in Wonder Woman back in 2017. Her utter beauty and fierce role literally left the critics dumbfounded.

Months after her star-studded 'Imagine' cover received backlash on social media, Gal Gadot has opened up about the same in an interview with Vanity Fair. Just to refresh your memory, the video was shot during the first few weeks of the coronavirus pandemic featured the Wonder Woman star and some famous friends  like Avengers: Endgame actor Mark Ruffalo, Jimmy Fallon, Amy Adams, and Will Ferrell among others singing along to John Lennon's peace anthem.Netizens were quick to criticize the video and said that if Gal Gadot was so concerned she could have just donated some money to those who have lost their livelihood due to the Coronavirus pandemic.

Gal Gadot has responded to criticism of the viral video of herself and other stars singing John Lennon’s Imagine, saying: “I had nothing but good intentions.”

$590-million yacht could hold a candle to the astonishingly tone-deaf “Imagine” video that premiered in mid-March. The Wonder Woman star Gal Gadot assembled a vast amount of star power to share what they earnestly believed to be an uplifting, effective message: “We are in this together, we will get through it together.” Of course, unlike Will Ferrell, Natalie Portman, Cara Delevingne, and a number of usually unproblematic celebrities, “we” have yet to do so from multimillion-dollar second homes. So, what on Earth was Gadot thinking? Seven months later, Nancy Jo Sales managed to procure some semblance of an explanation for the November issue of Vanity Fair.

Wonder Woman star opened up in a new Vanity Fair piece on Tuesday after in March, she posted a video in which celebrities including herself, Kristen Wiig, Will Ferrell, and others sang John Lennon's "Imagine." It was meant to be seen as inspirational as the world went into COVID-19 lockdown, but it was instead the subject of mockery as many deemed it out of touch."Sometimes, you know, you try and do a good deed and it's just not the right good deed," Gadot told Vanity Fair.

Gal Gadot is acknowledging the viral celebrity-filled «Imagine» video that didn't quite land at the start of the coronavirus pandemic. The video features Gadot and many other stars singing along to John Lennon's «Imagine» in what was meant to be a show of unity.

Gal Gadot has confirmed she will star in a new Cleopatra biopic, reuniting with her Wonder Woman director Patty Jenkins.

A couple of years ago it was reported that Denis Villeneuve was going to helm a new film about Cleopatra, but it seems that film (if it ever materializes) will have some competition. It was just announced that “Wonder Woman” director Patty Jenkins and star Gal Gadot will reunite for their own version of “Cleopatra,” for Paramount Pictures.
