Alison Hammond Backtracks After Strictly Come Dancing Hosting Comments

However, it seems she may have spoken too soon. Reacting to headlines claiming she’d “turned down” an offer to host Strictly, she told Metro: “Do you think I would turn down Strictly if Strictly came along? Who would turn down Strictly! They’d be absolutely crazy.” She claimed: “I was trying to back them off because ultimately everyone keeps putting my name in the mix and they’re ruining my chances of even getting on to Strictly, d’you know what I mean?” “You all need to stop talking about it because I need to get in,” Alison added, before insisting: “I’m not too busy, I’m fitter than I’ve ever been before. I can do Strictly. I can do it all.” After confirming last week that she’d been approached about hosting Strictly, Alison explained to Radio Times: “I’m so busy, babes, that I’m not sure it’s going to happen. It’s unrealistic. I’m so happy they considered me but, like Traitors, I can’t do it because everything clashes. “I would have loved to have done it – anybody that …

Doja Cat Backtracks After Timothée Chalamet TikTok Takedown

Doja Cat Backtracks After Timothée Chalamet TikTok Takedown

Doja Cat is backtracking after weighing in on the recent discourse surrounding Timothée Chalamet. Over the weekend, Doja had a few things to get off her chest about viral comments made by the Marty Supreme actor last week, declaring that “no one cares” about opera and ballet anymore. Calling the Oscar nominee out by name in a now-deleted Instagram post, the rapper hit back: “The dancers care, the singers care, the audience cares. There’s still an audience. People give a fuck. You show up in a nice outfit. You sit the fuck down and shut the fuck up. That’s the usual etiquette around those things. Maybe learn something from that.” However, in a new TikTok shared on Tuesday, Doja made something of a u-turn on her comments, explaining that she recorded her previous video “in the heat of the moment”. The Paint The Town Red musician explained that she probably isn’t the most qualified person to unpack Timothée’s controversial comments about the arts, because she’s never actually been to the ballet or seen an opera. …

During the musician’s history-making Super Bowl halftime show, Paul — who relocated to Puerto Rico in 2021 — said on X that he was boycotting the performance because there was a “fake American citizen performing who publicly hates America.” The YouTuber turned professional boxer, who is a vocal Trump supporter, was forced to clarify his comments when his older brother, Logan, 30, responded to the tweet saying: “I love my brother but I don’t agree with this.” “Puerto Ricans are Americans & I’m happy they were given the opportunity to showcase the talent that comes from the island,” …

Trump backtracks on criticism of UK troops in Afghanistan after outrage – POLITICO

U.S. President Donald Trump said British troops “were among the greatest of all warriors” in the Afghan war, a day after U.K. officials vented outrage at him saying NATO allied troops stayed “a little off the front lines” in Afghanistan. “The GREAT and very BRAVE soldiers of the United Kingdom will always be with the United States of America!” Trump said in a post on his social media Saturday evening. “It’s a bond too strong to ever be broken. The U.K. Military, with tremendous Heart and Soul, is second to none (except for the U.S.A.!).”  Trump’s latest comments came after NATO allies pushed back strongly against his earlier remarks, with British Prime Minister Keir Starmer calling the characterization of U.K. troops in Afghanistan “insulting and frankly appalling.” Source link
