JK Rowling has challenged transgender charity Mermaids to sue her in another public spat.The author as been at the centre of several Twitter storms in recent years, angering many people in the LGBTQ+ community specifically. Most recently, she blasted celebrities for backing Mermaids – a charity that supports transgender young people and their families – with the likes of Harry Potter star Emma Watson previously showing their support for the organisation.The writer’s latest comments come after it became public knowledge that a trustee from Mermaids quit their role over revelations he spoke at an ‘academic’ conference hosted by B4U-ACT, an organisation that promotes support for paedophiles.It was revealed by the Times that Dr Jacob Breslow attended the conference in 2011 as a PhD student.

Kanye West has now hit out at Hailey Bieber as the controversy rages on following his White Lives Matter stunt.The rapper caused widespread anger with his Yeezy fashion show in Paris on Monday (October 3) by wearing a ‘White Lives Matter’ t-shirt.Following outrage online after the fashion show, Kanye only doubled down on his stance and wrote on social media that the Black Lives Matter movement was a ‘scam.’The musician has been widely criticised, with the likes of Jodie Turner-Smith calling him ’embarrassing’ and calling for Kanye to stop sharing his ‘toxic’ opinions.In response to critics, Kanye shared a statement to his Instagram page which name-checked Hailey and her husband Justin Bieber, after the model defended Vogue contributing editor Gabriella Karefa-Johnson, who condemned the White Lives Matter shirts.‘Justin get your girl before I get mad,’ Kanye wrote.He also shared a screenshot of an E! News article discussing Hailey’s support for the Vogue editor, asking in his caption: ‘Wait Am I canceled again??? Justin please let me know.’‘I wanna just let everyone know there was some fashion this week also. There was a major thing called Fashion Week which really lasts a month and there were some really well done crazy overpriced clothes being shown,’ Kanye penned in his statement.‘It wasn’t just about my paradigm shifting t-shirt,’ Kanye claimed, before quickly ceasing the sarcasm: ‘Just kidding.

Before we get into what is the latest mess surrounding Kanye West, I have to admit that I don’t have the answers. I can’t definitively tell you whether to take Kanye’s outlandish statements with a pinch of salt, or even whether to continue being a fan of him, his music, his ‘art’ – but what I do know is that it’s time to say enough is enough. Enough with him bringing down the Black community on worldwide platforms and enough of the wash, rinse, repeat cycle of being outraged, forgetting, moving on and then the same thing happening again in a few months’ time. I’m all here for a ridiculous celebrity stunt that ultimately harms no one – Sacha Baron Cohen infiltrating Milan Fashion Week in character as Bruno, maybe, but Kanye wearing a ‘White Lives Matter’ top at a fashion show in Paris, absolutely not. Even an attention-seeking Kanye on a basic level, I can deal with, but when it comes to attacking social injustice movements, this is where the laughter stops and we as spectators of entertainment have to draw a line. As a Black British person, having a Black award-winning, globally-recognised and talented rapper essentially denounce the Black Lives Matter movement during the UK’s Black History Month, couldn’t have felt like more of a kick in the guts.For us in the UK, October is a time when many of us make efforts to highlight the positive impact Black figures have made and a time when we particularly amplify our voices. So it could not have come at a worse time to see not only one but two prominent Black figures – Kanye and conservative political commentator Candace Owens – have the audacity to stand on a live-streamed global platform wearing tops with the slogan ‘White Lives Matter’ printed clear as day. I am – or maybe

Julia Bradbury has spoken on her fears that having children later down the line increased her risk of breast cancer.The presenter, 52, announced that she had been diagnosed with cancer in September last year, before undergoing a mastectomy one month later to have a 6cm tumour removed.Julia has been incredibly open about her experiences and fronted an ITV documentary about her battle with breast cancer, entitled Julia Bradbury: Breast Cancer and Me.The TV star was over the age of 40 when she had her kids – Zephyr, 11, and twins Xanthe and Zena, seven – with her twin daughters being born following five rounds of IVF with her husband.Julia and husband Gerard Cunningham went down the IVF path after she sought treatment for endometriosis, which can affect fertility.Despite the pride she feels about being a slightly older mother, Julia has shared her concerns that this was a contributing factor to her breast cancer.She told The Sun: ‘I love motherhood and I think there are certain life skills you have more experience with when you’re older.‘But if you have your children later in life, that increases your risk of breast cancer, so does being a tall woman, as does being extensively on the Pill.’According to the NHS, having children or having children later in life may ‘slightly increase’ your risk of developing breast cancer because ‘your exposure to oestrogen is not interrupted by pregnancy.’BreastCancer.org also explain that breast cancer risk reduction from pregnancy doesn’t kick in until about 20 years after a woman’s last pregnancy.They detail a study which found that women younger than 55 who had a full-term pregnancy had a slightly higher risk of developing breast cancer during the study.Taking the combined contraceptive

Owen Gleiberman Chief Film Critic The movie format where a character beloved by kids becomes a CGI creature, who is then plugged into a live-action universe, is one of the most casually technically astonishing of all popcorn genres — and, as often as not, one of the most stunted. It almost doesn’t matter if the hero is Garfield or Stuart Little, Alvin and the Chipmunks or Sonic the Hedgehog: The way this genre has descended from the noisy bravura of “Who Framed Roger Rabbit,” the actors tend to be reduced to one-note stooges who get stuck in too many green-screen reaction shots, whereas the critter at the center — the animated star — is, almost inevitably, a preening chatterbox who wears out his welcome by pelting the live-action players, and the audience, with too many bad punchlines.
