Helen Mirren Addresses Video Of Her Being Branded A 'Zionist B***h' In The Street

Published by Sam Flores

Helen Mirren pictured in February 2026 Dame Helen Mirren has spoken for the first time about a viral video depicting her being met with verbal abuse in the street due to her past support of Israel. Last month, footage was widely shared online depicting the Oscar winner being branded an “an evil Zionist bitch” by an unseen man. In the clip, he also told her husband, the Oscar-winning filmmaker Taylor Hackford: “You as well, fuck you and all.” Earlier this week, the British performer accepted the Lifetime Achievement Award at the Taormina Film Festival, where she said of the video in question that she had been “attacked by mistake by a man who was maybe a little over passionate or maybe mentally not quite stable”. The Metropolitan Police previously said of the viral clip: “We are aware of a video circulating online, showing a man and a woman being subjected to antisemitic verbal abuse in Tower Hill. It is believed that the incident took place at the end of last year.” Clarifying her stance on …

Ariana Grande Slams Trump Administration For 'Barbaric' Video Using Her Song

Published by Sam Flores

Ariana Grande at the Golden Globes earlier this year Ariana Grande has taken aim at Donald Trump and his administration over a new video depicting border patrol agents making arrests which included a snippet of her song. Earlier this week, the Thank U, Next singer spoke out about a video posted on the White House’s TikTok account with the caption: “Bye-bye. President Trump has delivered the most secure border in history.” Multipleoutletshave reported that the video initially featured Ariana’s 2024 song Bye to soundtrack the video, with the Grammy winner writing in the comments: “Please do not use my music in relation to this barbaric, inhumane, heinous nonsense.” White House spokesperson Abigail Jackson later responded (via BBC News): “What’s actually barbaric, inhumane, and heinous are the criminal illegal aliens who have injured and murdered innocent American citizens.” Interestingly, both Ariana’s comment and the use of her song in the White House’s video now appear to have been erased.

Cheaper, faster, and culturally aware, Avataar’s video AI is built for India’s scale

Published by skeptic

India’s AI model output has been slow compared to the U.S., Europe, and China. Only a few startups are releasing models, and most of them are large language models or voice models. To encourage more development, the government launched the India AI Mission, a roughly $1.2 billion initiative that — among other things — gives selected startups access to subsidized GPU compute in exchange for releasing their models publicly. One of the 12 startups selected for the program, Avataar AI, has launched a new video model called Varya that is built to understand local context — such as identifying different festivals, food, and clothing. The Peak XV-backed startup, which focuses on creating video tools for e-commerce, didn’t build Varya from scratch. It started with Wan 2.2, a publicly available video generation model released by Alibaba, and used a technique called distillation — essentially compressing the model’s capabilities into a leaner, faster version optimized for Avataar’s specific use cases. The result is a model that runs in four steps rather than Wan 2.2’s 50, producing video …
