Fans of the British singer Harry Styles have been left bereft after the star cut off his luscious locks and got a buzz cut. For many of his devoted fanbase, his famous hair is part of his charm and it was even captured in the artist David Hockney’s portrait of him, which hangs in the National Portrait Gallery. Rumours had already begun to swirl about his new look before it appeared to be confirmed after he was spotted at a U2 concert in Las Vegas in a very grainy photo. One fan begged, “Lord please help me in these difficult times” as they shared the apparent confirmation that Styles now has a “buzz cut”. The message they shared claimed that the former One Direction member still looks good. But, it seems the loss of his formerly side-swept hair affected fans very deeply as the whole thing became an instant meme. While there is no solid proof beyond a grainy picture, it seems some of his most loyal following might need a moment to process it, if true. With the help of videos, pictures and memes, fans certainly did not hold back in letting their feelings of grief known. One person had a theory that he did it because he watched the Beckham documentary on Netflix and got inspired by the early 2000s nostalgia of it all.

No layers, just a T-shirt - or layers and oh so sweaty - constantly looking down, readjusting my oversized T," Page wrote. But that has since changed, as their latest photo shows him embracing the shirtless look, while sporting a baseball cap and chain. "It feels so f’ing good soaking in the sun now, I never thought I could experience this, the joy I feel in my body," the actor added. "I am so grateful for what gender affirming care has allowed me and I look forward to sharing more of my journey soon. #transjoy." Page came out as a transgender man back in December 2020 and in the following year they posted a shirtless pic to display the results of their top surgery. Also in 2021, Page sat down with Oprah Winfrey to discuss how gender affirming care has made him feel comfortable in his own body. “Getting out of the shower and the towel’s around your waist and you’re looking at yourself in the mirror and you’re just like, ‘There I am.’ And I’m not having the moment where I’m panicked," he said. “It’s being able to touch my chest and feel comfortable in my body for the — probably the first time.” Meanwhile, Page has a new book coming out called "Pageboy: A Memoir," that is set to be released next month on June 6.

Island Boys rapper Flyysoulja has come out as gay after sparking backlash for sharing a video of him kissing his brother. According to Dexerto, the viral star turned to TikTok Live where he said: "I’m a top, I’m never a bottom, I’m a top you understand what I’m saying?" "I’m like that, for real.

"You guys support me, because you feel me," he continued. "I like men. It is what it is. I’m a top. I’m a top at the end of the day. That’s what’s going on."

One person on Twitter wrote: "They need to tell these new gens this shit is not normal," while another added: "Did I just see the island boys making out with each other? Ain’t they brothers?" A third added: "They're biological brothers wtf? This is what happens when you sell your soul to the devil." Many people slammed the content for being "incest," comments Flyysoulja denied to TMZ. "We’re both straight males and kissing is not counted as a sexual act," he reportedly told the outlet weeks ago.

No, Wes Anderson hasn't been scrolling on the For You page, as the filmmaker revealed that he has never seen a TikTok - despite there being an entire trend about his films. The 54-year-old is widely known for his distinctive cinematic style in terms of cinematography, colour design and composition, and some of his films include The Grand Budapest Hotel (2014), The French Dispatch (2021), and most recently Asteroid City (2023) and many more. Earlier this year, a TikTok trend emerged where people filmed their mundane activities with symmetrical shots and quirky music and it all began with TikToker @avawillyums who filmed her train journey emulating the movie director. Sign up to our free Indy100 weekly newsletter The hashtag "Wes Anderson Trend," now has over 216m views, however despite the virality of the trend, Anderson himself still hasn't seen a single TikTok. @avawillyums With a good imagination, everything is symmetrical. Let a girl day dream! #wesanderson Speaking to The Daily Beast, he confessed when asked about the emergence of AI-generated trailers that reimagine classic movies such as Star Wars, Lord of the Rings, and Dune in his cinematic style. "I’ve only been exposed to it verbally. I haven’t seen any of it," he said. "Obviously, it’s easy for me to go to the right web page and see it. I choose not to really engage. I guess it’s because I don’t want to get distracted by that." He added: "It’s a bit like if you’re told, 'Your friend does a great version of you.' Maybe you say, I’d really like to see it, and maybe you say, I don’t want to see a version of me, even if it’s good. It can be like, “Is that me?” That’s not necessarily the thing you want." It was after this that he mentioned how he hadn't seen a single TikTok video. Anderson said: "At some point, I’m sure I’ll go in there and see. But I’ve never seen a TikTok, for instance, of anything. I’m not going to start with me. [laughs]" Meanwhile, Anderson's latest film Asteroid City (2023) is set to be released on June 19 and stars Tom Hanks, Scarlett Johansson, Jeffrey Wright, Tilda Swinton, Bryan Cranston, Adrien Brody, Edward Norton, Steve Carell, Hope Davis, Live Schreiber, Rupert Friend, Hong Chau, Maya Hawke, Stephen Park, Willem Dafoe, and Margot Robbie.
