Anderson Cooper bids ‘60 Minutes’ a final farewell

Anderson Cooper bids ‘60 Minutes’ a final farewell

Published by Sam Flores

Anderson Cooper has signed off from “60 Minutes” for the last time. After two decades as a correspondent on CBS’ newsmagazine, he officially ended his run Sunday night. Cooper, who also hosts a news program on CNN, announced in February his plans to leave CBS, months after an internal shake-up that followed the arrival of Editor in Chief Bari Weiss. “Things can always evolve and change, and I think that’s awesome, and things should evolve and change, but I hope the core of what ’60 Minutes’ is always remains,” Anderson said on air. “I think the independence of ’60 Minutes’ has been critical.” Throughout the farewell segment, the 58-year-old journalist, who was hired in 2007, reminisced about some career highlights, such as speaking with Holocaust survivors, along with people battling malnutrition in Niger, and interviewing A-listers including Lady Gaga and Prince Harry. He also said he hopes the show continues to be a reliable source of investigative journalism. “I think the trust it has with viewers is critical to the success of ’60 Minutes.’ When …

Lee Anderson issues Labour blistering warning after big promotion: ‘Smash to smithereens!’ | Politics | News

Reform MP Lee Anderson has issued Labour with a stark warning after being promoted to party chairman. The 59-year-old, who was the party’s first MP after joining when he was kicked out of the Conservative Party, takes over from David Bull. The Ashfield MP hailed his party’s recent local election results, in which it gained more than 1,600 seats, and plunged Labour into a full-blown leadership crisis. Speaking to the Daily Express, he said: “Today is a proud moment for me, I’m delighted to be the chairman of Reform UK and to take on this role at such an important moment for our country. Reform UK is giving a voice to millions of hardworking people who feel ignored by the political establishment, and I look forward to working alongside Nigel Farage and our dedicated team.” He pledged to “continue fighting for common-sense policies, secure borders, lower taxes and a government that puts the British people first”. But in a warning shot to Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer, he said he would also “do everything I …

Anderson Cooper Bids Farewell to 60 Minutes With Plea for Independence

Anderson Cooper bid farewell to CBS News‘ 60 Minutes on Sunday night after 20 years on the newsmagazine by praising the show’s “independence” and “trust it has with viewers.” “I hope 60 Minutes remains 60 Minutes,” he said in an interview on 60 Minutes Overtime. “There’s very few things that have been around for as long as 60 Minutes has and maintain the quality that it has, and things can always evolve and change, and I think that’s awesome, and things should evolve and change, but I hope the core of what 60 Minutes is always remains.” 60 Minutes has been making headlines recently under its new ownership of David Ellison and Ellison’s hiring of CBS News editor in chief Bari Weiss. In December, Weiss pulled a segment on the “brutal and torturous conditions” at the El Salvador prison where the Trump Administration sent deportees. An official statement said the story “needed additional reporting.” 60 Minutes has also faced criticism for reportedly sidelining legendary correspondent Lesley Stahl and drafting in Major Garrett to interview Benjamin …

Pamela Anderson took to Instagram on Thursday evening to share some stunning images of Sonsie, the beauty brand she co-founded, for its latest campaign. In the shots, you can see various images of flowers, with the actress shrunken down to tiny proportions alongside them. With her blonde hair and elfin stance, she is likened to the Disney character of Tinkerbell in the images – the film star appears as a flower fairy as she gazes up at the blooms. “Beauty is in the eye of the beholder,” she penned. In one picture, the mother-of-two is wearing a slinky pastel evening gown, complete with a keyhole detail and a ruched waist. Stunning. Speaking about the idea behind the campaign, The Last Showgirl star told Byrdie: “We’ve been on a mission to peel back the layers of what traditional beauty has been and lean more into the idea that beauty is truly in the eye of the beholder.” © InstagramPamela’s sons were part of the project The 58-year-old also involved her adoring sons, Brandon and Dylan, whom she shares …

Dior and Jonathan Anderson Revive Old Hollywood with an All-Star Extravaganza Featuring Al Pacino and In-N-Out Burgers

Published by Sam Flores

As amused as I am by the thought, that’s not the connection the designer is looking to establish. Dior has had a long relationship with Hollywood, which Anderson is looking to honor. There’s also the quiet part: The U.S. remains a crucial market in luxury, and Dior is not alone in cozying up to its American clientele—Chanel had a show in New York in December, where Gucci and Louis Vuitton each have shows coming up on Saturday and Wednesday, respectively, and Hermès is hosting in LA next month. The house tour I embarked on is more illustrative of the theme of this adult field trip: I’m visiting Dawnridge, the famed home of Tony Duquette, the late interior, furniture, and costume designer who, as we’re told by his former business partner and protege Hutton Wilkinson, was friends with Monsieur Dior after they met during Duquette’s first Europe tour in 1947. Wilkinson, who now owns the house, is an old Hollywood-style gem and a soundbite generator—as a colleague says, he talks like he was plucked out of …

The White House, the Warzone, and Jeffrey Epstein: Welcome to the World of Photographer Christopher Anderson

Published by Sam Flores

The photographer Christopher Anderson was moving to Europe, going through storage, looking at old pictures—a familiar exercise when packing up apartments. But for Anderson, who’s been deployed to some of the thorniest places on earth, the snaps lining the cardboard box hit a little different. “I’ve lived multiple photographic lives from my origins as a war photographer, to the pictures of my family, to the pictures of the White House,” he recently told Vanity Fair. “Who was that person that was on a boat with Haitian immigrants in 2000, documenting that journey, who also then walks into Trump’s White House and photographs Stephen Miller? I hate to use the word ‘humbling’ because it’s overused, but yeah, wow—It’s hard to imagine that the kid from West Texas was fortunate enough to be present in some of those moments.” Christopher Anderson While rummaging through storage, he also found photos of Jeffrey Epstein, shot in his notorious Upper East Side townhouse, commissioned for a story that never ran. He thought he’d given the only copies to their subject …

It’s part-slasher movie, part-fever dream and part-commentary on fandom and identity. It stars Gillian Anderson, who we know best for “The X-Files” and “Sex Education”.

Instead, she belongs to the pantheon of greats best seen in the boxes in our living rooms – think the Jon Hamms or the Sarah Lanchashires, people we don’t tend to like in 90-minute chunks, but rather in weekly instalments, delivered annually, sometimes with ad breaks. The cynical professionalism of The X-Files’ Dana Scully led to the pansexual cool of The Fall’s Stella Gibson, which led to the deadpan comedy of Sex Education’s Jean Milburn and the campy severity of The Crown’s Margaret Thatcher. Anderson is to TV what DiCaprio is to cinema – built for it, comfortable in it, always able to catch its trends and waves. And that’s why it’s so refreshing to see her become the darling of the Cannes Film Festival this week, in a movie that finally …

Anderson juices up the vibes for Dior with spotlight on Hollywood | Dior

Like Christian Dior, the founder of the house he now leads, fashion designer Jonathan Anderson’s ambition is to be not just a Parisian couturier but a Hollywood power player. “We think of Dior as this romantic character, but he was also a very savvy businessman,” said Anderson before a blockbuster catwalk show in Los Angeles. Stage Fright, the Hitchcock caper-noir for which Dior dressed Marlene Dietrich, was the show’s origin story. “There is all this amazing correspondence between Dior, Dietrich and Hitchcock, which shows how he navigated the money that it cost to make that film. I think we underestimate how much negotiation Dior did with studio executives. He was very smart in that way.” Models on the runway on the Dior Cruise collection in Los Angeles. Photograph: Guerin Charles/Abaca/Shutterstock Anderson, 41, who was born in Northern Ireland but since being appointed to Dior splits his time between London and Paris, has his own Hollywood side hustle as the costume designer for Luca Guadagnino’s films, and is set on reinvigorating Dior’s relationship with the film …

The 57-year-old actress stepped out at the 79th annual Cannes Film Festival on May 13 for the Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma photocall, unveiling a bold new 80s inspired look that instantly set social media alight.  Known for her sleek, polished style, Gillian swapped her signature straight locks for a voluminous cascade of blonde curls, and the result was nothing short of show-stopping. © Gamma-Rapho via Getty Images Gillian Anderson unveils wild curls Leaning playfully over a balcony as photographers clamoured below, the actress radiated confidence and joy, her tumbling curls catching the light and framing her face in soft, dramatic waves. In another moment, she glanced over her shoulder with effortless poise, offering a glimpse of the intricate detailing on her gown — and, of course, that headline-making hair.
