Similarly, 50 Cent's mum came out as lesbian when he was young, but she unfortunately passed away soon after.

In the Middle Ages, stealing a book was more like stealing someone’s car today. Now, we have car alarms; then, they had chains, chests … and curses.

Phoebe Waller-Bridge has revealed the secret behind her confidence is actually by being a bit mean to her audience before she goes on stage. The Fleabag star learnt the tip during her stint at Noel Coward’s play Hay Fever in the West End in 2011. "You stand behind the curtain, take a deep breath and you just go: 'F*** you, you are lucky to have me'. And you say it as loud as you can and we did it every night.

Tom Brady is proving he's still got it, by somehow managing to hit a drone with a football, while sailing on a $300 million yacht alongside Mr Beast. The drone was several yards away from the boat when the former New England Patriots star was set the challenge by the YouTuber. "If I hit the drone on the first try, maybe I should come out of retirement", Brady said, appearing nervous, before completely wiping it out. We'll be waiting, Brady.

Ricky Gervais has reportedly upped the security for his tour after receiving death threats. Ahead of his Armageddon tour set to kick off in Cardiff on Wednesday (14 June), the comedian has ordered a full team of security. A source told The Sun: "Ricky has been made aware threats have been made to his life. His offices haven’t shown them to him, but have told him very disturbing letters have come in for him. "Ricky is very aware of the dangers and he can afford whatever security he wants, so he thought it was a no-brainer." One of the alleged death threats was about an "anti-trans" joke he made in his Netflix special SuperNature. It is reported the 61-year-old is set to discuss God, Hitler and the culture of offence in his upcoming tour. Sign up for our free Indy100 weekly newsletter It comes after the comedian confessed to regretting one single joke during his entire career. The joke in question was during the 2011 Golden Globes when a joke about Tim Allen fell "flat" – or at least according to Allen. Introducing two celebrities to the stage, Gervais said: "What can I say about our next two presenters?" He added: "The first is an actor, producer and director whose movies have grossed over $3.5 billion at the box office. He’s won two Academy Awards and three Golden Globes for his powerful and varied performances, starring in such films as Philadelphia, Forrest Gump, Castaway, Apollo 13 and Saving Private Ryan." The comedian finished by saying: "The other is Tim Allen." Allen expressed his confusion in an interview, saying he simply did not get it. Gervais later told the Hollywood Reporter in 2020 that he regretted the joke "because I think [Allen] took it wrong". "The joke was him and Tom Hanks," Gervais said. "So I came out and said, ‘Our next two presenters, the first has won five Oscars, combined box office of five billion dollars. And the other, Tim Allen.’ Right? It’s a fine joke. I’m teasing Tim Allen." Indy100 reached out to Ricky Gervais' rep for comment. Have your say in our news democracy.

Whether an entire town can’t stop dancing or people suddenly start worrying about minor marks on their windshields, these seemingly unbelievable events have had some surprising (and sometimes devastating) effects.

Kanye West celebrated his 46th birthday over the weekend in a lavish Los Angeles bash, with his daughter North West and reported wife Bianca Censori in attendance. Like most birthday parties, food was in order – but it was the display that soon caught the attention of social media users. In footage shared on Twitter, nude women were seen lying on tables with platters of sushi covering their private areas. "Not creepy at all," one user hit back, while another added: "This feels problematic." Meanwhile, a third suggested it portrayed "misogyny at its finest." The Japanese practice is said to be called nyotaimori, also referred to as 'body sushi'. Nantaimori is the male equivalent. According to sources, some high dining nyotaimori experiences can cost as much as $13,000 (£10,300). Sign up for our free Indy100 weekly newsletter The private party was said to have the likes of Chloe Bailey and Ty Dolla Sign in attendance. West's reported wife was also spotted holding hands with his eldest daughter as they made their way to the event. After months of speculation about the rapper's relationship status with the head of architecture for the Yeezy brand, one content creator sent social media spiralling. In a viral video that circulated on TikTok earlier this year, Censori, 28, appeared to confirm she was married without explicitly naming West. TikTok user Nue filmed himself having a conversation with a "sexy" bleach-blonde woman while out shopping. He wrapped up their encounter by asking for her number, to which she replied: "I’m married!" The woman in question turned out to be Censori, sending viewers into a frenzy. "I think she’s adorable and I’m happy for her and ye," one person wrote about the alleged marriage, while another added: "She honestly seems like a really sweet person."

Liam Payne stole the show at Soccer Aid after viewers noticed him shirtless in the changing room subtly flexing. As Harry Redknapp offered up a half-time pep talk to the teams, the One Direction singer in the background running his hands through his hair and showing off his abs completely deflected the attention. "Liam Payne just conveniently standing in prime slot for a shot of his torso", one Twitter user joked. But unfortunately looks weren't enough, with World XI taking a 4-2 win over England.
