The Hollywood Veteran Looked At Ease In The Shot
Nicole Kidman treated her fans to a stunning photo on Instagram to herald Valentine’s Day as a single parent.
In the image, the “Big Little Lies” star is seated against soft white bedding, her posture relaxed and unguarded. One knee is bent and tucked partially beneath the blanket, while her hands rest loosely together near her lap.
She wore a pale pink pajama top with delicate vertical stripes, and its oversized fit draped effortlessly over her slender frame.
For the shot, Kidman styled her long blonde hair in soft, tousled waves that fell gently around her shoulders. Light streaming through the window catches in it, giving it a subtle shimmer. The same light grazed her face, which was tilted downward with her eyes closed.

Rounding out the striking image was a caption from Nicole Kidman that seemingly embraced her new chapter as a single woman.
She wrote, “Happy Galentine’s,” a playful twist on the Valentine’s Day phrase that was popularized in a 2010 episode of Parks and Recreation bearing the same name.

This includes a clip of him saying, “Maggie, I’ll be your guitar player,” a twist on a lyric in his 2016 song, “The Fighter.”

What Do You Think Roomies?
Team USA figure skater Ilia Malinin’s peers rallied behind him after the gold-medal hopeful finished in a disappointing eighth place during the men’s singles competition.
“I was not expecting that,” Malinin, 21, told NBC Sports on Friday, February 13, after his final 2026 Winter Olympics performance. “I felt so ready getting on that ice. Maybe I was too confident it was going to go well.”
Malinin, affectionately nicknamed the “quad god” for the sheer number of quadruple turns in his routines, was the gold-medal favorite in the 2026 Winter Olympics. After finishing the short program at the top of the leaderboard, he slid down to eighth after falling twice and making a slew of technical mistakes in his free skate.
“Finally experiencing that Olympic atmosphere, it’s crazy. It’s really different,” he told NBC after his competition. “I blew it. There’s no way that just happened.”
Ahead of the individual event, Malinin helped Team USA win gold in the team event.
Keep scrolling to see how Malinin’s fellow skaters have reacted to his surprising eighth place finish:
Tara Lipiniski
Tara Lipinski served as a broadcaster during Malinin’s Olympics competition.
“The grace, honesty and sportsmanship you showed in a moment of heartbreak reveals you are not only an elite athlete but a gracious human being,” Lipiniski wrote via Instagram. “I can’t wait to watch you rise.”
Johnny Weir
Johnny Weir works with Tara Lipinski as an NBC commentator during the Winter Games.
“You are one in a million @ilia_quadg0d_malinin,” Weir captioned an Instagram tribute. “You showed true sportsmanship and grace. I can’t wait to see where you’ll take us next. 🤍”
Nathan Chen
Gold medalist Nathan Chen was also confused as to why Malinin faced many missteps in the free skate.
“Something happened tonight and, truthfully, I can’t even express what it might be,” Chen told Yahoo! Sports. “I definitely can reflect back on my experience in 2018, when I went into the short program with a lot of pressure, a lot of concerns in my head [and] a lot of doubt.”
Chen further noted that Malinin appeared to “hold back” on most of his elements throughout the Olympics routine.
“By the end of it, it just was not his night,” he said. “One of the hardest parts about performing for a huge sold-out crowd is that you really can viscerally feel the reaction from the crowd. … That hurts you to your gut. Mentally, you have to figure out what went wrong and how can I regroup for the next element? Also, the energy changes in the arena and you can feel there’s tension now.”
Chen also noted that Malinin is still young and is “still hungry” to overcome his 2026 Olympics outcome.
“He has so much potential,” Chen concluded. “Tonight is a night where he’ll have to reflect and reevaluate where he was mentally and physically, and try to identify how he can come into the next Olympics and have a different outcome.”
The 2026 Winter Olympics are officially here — and Team USA is arriving in Italy with star power, storylines and sky-high expectations. As the world’s best athletes descend on Milan and Cortina d’Ampezzo, all eyes are on the Americans: from Ilia Malinin’s can’t-miss moment in men’s figure skating to Mikaela Shiffrin’s long-awaited redemption tour on […]
Elladj Balde
Retired Canadian figure skater Elladj Baldé also offered his support.
“Figure Skating is one of the hardest sports mentally. The pressure is unbelievably heavy and there is no margin for error,” Baldé wrote via Instagram. “Tonight was a tough one but I am so proud of all of these skaters for the work they have put in to get here.”
Speaking to Malinin directly, he added, “You are an innovator and trailblazer of this sport and what you bring to the ice is far greater than simply your jumping ability.”

Spencer Pratt’s Sister
A Vote For My Bro is a Vote For Stupidity!!!
Published

Updated
Spencer Pratt might have a ton of supporters backing his Los Angeles mayoral run … but, his sister Stephanie isn’t one of them — because she’s warning people not to elect him!
Stephanie took to social media Saturday to bash her bro’s political ambitions … admitting he’s done great work for the Pacific Palisades community — but he can’t be responisible for 4 million citizens.
Spencer’s only running to boost sales of his memoir “The Guy You Loved to Hate: Confessions from a Reality TV Villain,” Stephanie claims … and, she tells people to just wait and see what he does with their tax dollars if elected.
Stephanie does write she’s worried about Los Angeles — referring to Mayor Karen Bass as “ASSBASS” in one post — but adds the city doesn’t need “another unqualified and inexperienced mayor. A vote for him is a vote for stupidity.”
Spencer announced his run for mayor last month … speaking mainly about the mismanagement by the local government of the Pacific Palisades Fire which burned his house among many other structures in the area.
TMZ.com
We spoke to Spencer at a campaign event last week, and he’s confident he can defeat Mayor Bass — who he calls Karen Basura, trash in Spanish — mainly because he’s sure she’s going to end up in jail for obstruction of justice. Much of his comments seemed ripped straight from the President Trump political playbook
However, if he wants to move into the mayor’s residence, the Getty House, Spencer may need to address the discord in his own.
We’ve reached out to Spencer … so far, no word back.
Since the premiere of Love Is Blind in 2020, fans have wondered how effective the concept of speed-dating without seeing the other person actually is.
The show, which has aired eight seasons and spawned multiple international iterations, follows singles dating in pods over the course of 10 days. The kicker, of course, is that they cannot see one another. If couples find love, then they will get engaged without ever meeting face-to-face.
After leaving the pods, pairs will decide if their blind love can withstand real-life pressures and a wedding date within weeks.
Love Is Blind has proven to be a success with several couples, from Lauren Speed and Cameron Hamilton to Bliss Poureetezadi-Goytowski and Zack Goytowski, finding lasting love. Bliss and Zack even welcomed the first Love Is Blind baby, a daughter named Galileo, in 2024.

Travis Kelce
Maybe, I Should Stick to Football …
Hits Another Woman with Golf Ball!!!
Published
Travis Kelce‘s used to big hits while playing sports … but he’s not usually the guy doling them out — and certainly not with a golf ball!
The Kansas City Chiefs star played the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am Friday … but ran into some trouble on the 18th hole — when he shanked a ball that smacked a bystander.
Check out the clip … the woman is being attended to by several staff members when Travis wades through the crowd.
Travis asks if she’s alright … and, the woman — later identified as Edenne Flinn of Salinas, California — seems to tell him she is. According to reports, Kelce signed an autograph for her.
JULY 2024
TMZ.com
While we’re sure Travis’ golf game has improved over the years, this isn’t the first time he’s done something like this. We shared video with you in 2024 of Kelce comforting a bloodied woman after he hit her with a golf ball in Lake Tahoe.
Bottom line … Travis turns golf into a full contact sport — so keep your head on a swivel!
‘Silence of the Lambs’
Buffalo Bill Actor Addresses Transphobia Controversy …
‘F***ing Wrong’ Portrayal
Published
“Silence of the Lambs” totally missed the mark when it came to handling gender identity onscreen … so says one of the movie’s biggest stars.
Ted Levine — the actor who played Buffalo Bill in the hit 1991 film — finally addressed the controversy surrounding his character in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter.
If you haven’t seen the movie, Buffalo Bill is a serial killer who flays women and wears their skin over his own … which, in more recent years, many have claimed makes the character an unflattering portrayal of transgender or gender nonconforming people.
Levine told the outlet he didn’t play the character as either … he always portrayed him as a screwed-up straight man — and, he had no qualms about the character while shooting the movie.
However, Levine says now, “[It’s] just over time and having gotten aware and worked with trans folks, and understanding a bit more about the culture and the reality of the meaning of gender. It’s unfortunate that the film vilified that, and it’s f***ing wrong.”
Producer Edward Saxon echoed Levine’s sentiments … telling THR the filmmakers didn’t think they’d upset the transgender community because they didn’t consider Buffalo Bill trans.
They felt he just was a sick individual with an “aberrant personality.” However, Saxon admits he feels the team wasn’t sensitive enough to sterotypes.
He goes on, “There’s regret, but it didn’t come from any place of malice. It actually came from a place of seeing this guy. We all had dear friends and family who were gay. We thought it would just be very clear that Buffalo Bill adapts different things from society, from a place of an incredibly sick pathology.”
BTW … Saxon also takes aim at President Donald Trump in the interview — telling the outlet he feels the prez likening immigrants to Hannibal Lecter is “as perverse as anything we were able to come up with in the film.”
Bottom line … people involved in the film weren’t trying to offend anyone — but, they certainly understand why they did.

![Heathrow has said passenger numbers were 60% lower in November than before the coronavirus pandemic and there were “high cancellations” among business travellers concerned about being trapped overseas for Christmas as Omicron spreads. The UK’s largest airport said the government’s travel restrictions had dealt a fresh blow to travel confidence and predicted it was likely to take several years for passenger numbers to return to pre-pandemic levels. This week ministers said passengers arriving in the UK would have to take a pre-departure Covid test, as well as a post-flight test, because of fears about the spread of the new variant. “[The] high level of cancellations by business travellers concerned about being trapped overseas because of pre-departure testing shows the potential harm to the economy of travel restrictions,” the airport said in an update. Heathrow said the drop in traveller confidence owing to the new travel restrictions had negated the benefit of reopening the all-important corridor to North America for business and holiday travel last month. Eleven African countries have been added to the government’s red list, requiring travellers to quarantine before reuniting with families. “By allowing Brits to isolate at home, ministers can make sure they are reunited with their loved ones this Christmas,” said John Holland-Kaye, the chief executive of Heathrow. “It would send a strong signal that restrictions on travel will be removed as soon as safely possible to give passengers the confidence to book for 2022, opening up thousands of new jobs for local people at Heathrow. Let’s reunite families for Christmas.” Heathrow said that if the government could safely signal that restrictions would be lifted soon, then employers at Heathrow would have the confidence to hire thousands of staff in anticipation of a boost in business next summer. The airport is expecting a slow start to 2022, finishing next year with about 45 million passengers – just over half of pre-pandemic levels. This week Tui, Europe’s largest package holiday operator, said it expected bookings for next summer to bounce back to 2019 levels. However, Heathrow said on Friday not to expect the aviation industry to recover for several years. “We do not expect that international travel will recover to 2019 levels until at least all travel restrictions (including testing) are removed from all the markets that we serve, at both ends of the route, and there is no risk of new restrictions, such as quarantine, being imposed,” the airport said.](https://wordupnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/shutterstock_1100012546-scaled-400x240.jpg)
