HOLLY Willoughby was left reeling during last night"s I"m A Celebrity as she attempted to take cover from the torrential rain that began mid-show. Extra Camp host Joe Swash, 36, hilariously captured the ITV darling, 37, on his Instagram cowering under an umbrella as she tried to hide from the tropical weather in between segments. Holly Willoughby was left reeling during last night"s I"m A Celebrity as she attempted to take cover from the torrential rain Unaware that she was being filmed, the This Morning host could be seen settling onto her hunkers on one of the show"s bridges as she gripped tightly onto an umbrella in a bid to stop getting wet. However, Holly"s attempts at remaining unnoticed in the wet terrain failed as presenter Joe hilariously poked fun at her on his social media. He said: "Holly what are you doing down there? Holly, what are you doing?" Turning with a smile, Holly shrieked: "I"m hiding", while the rain jumped

HBO late-night host Bill Maher angered many in the comic book community this week with a blog post about the reaction to Stan Lee’s death. “The guy who created Spider-Man and the Hulk has died, and America is in mourning. Deep, deep mourning for a man who inspired millions to, I don’t know, watch a movie, I guess,” he began the post. It quickly sparked backlash, and Maher clarified his comments while doubling down on them in an interview with Larry King on Wednesday. “Talk about making my point for me,” Maher said. “Yeah, I don’t know very much about Stan Lee and it certainly wasn’t a swipe at Stan Lee…I am agnostic on Stan Lee. I don’t read comic books. I didn’t even read them when I was a child.  “What I was saying is: A culture that thinks that comic books and comic book movies are profound meditations on the human condition is a dumb f—ing culture. And for people to, like, get mad at that just proves my point.” Watch more Maher added that he was slow to pick up on the rea

Washington President Donald Trump is surrounded by fools. There’s that fool William H. McRaven, Special Operations commander of the raid that killed Osama bin Laden, and the other fools in the U.S. military, who should have brought down bin Laden “a lot sooner,” because “everybody in Pakistan” — all 208 million of them — knew the terrorist leader was living in “a nice mansion.” Trump alone “predicted Osama bin Laden” in 2000 when “nobody really knew who he was.” (Were they waiting for Trump to give them bin Laden’s ZIP code plus four?) There are the fools in the CIA, who have concluded based on so-called evidence that Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman ordered last month’s killing of Washington Post contributor Jamal Khashoggi. But Trump alone understands that we’ll never know the truth, because the crown prince denied involvement “maybe five different times.” There’s that fool Chris Wallace at Fox News, who didn’t understand why Trump skipped Arlington National Cemetery on the Mo

Two drivers exchanged verbal blows after a minor traffic incident sparked a foul-mouthed rant. The pair of road rage motorists began swearing at each other after a manoeuvre by a BMW driver escalated into a verbal altercation. Tom Albon was driving through York yesterday when the BMW driver cut him up and pulled in front of his vehicle in a left-hand lane, causing him to brake hard. Both drivers were moving off from a set of traffic lights when the grey BMW Z4 convertible sports car then moved into the lane in front of Albon. His dashcam audio picked up Albon swearing under his breath at his fellow driver"s actions as Kylie Minogue"s "Can"t Get You Out of My Head" played in the background.  The BMW driver stopped in the middle of the lane and got out of his vehicle to confront Tom Albon in York yesterday  As the driver marched over to his rival"s car the pair exchanged swear words before going their separate ways As the BMW driver broke he th

DEAR ABBY: We received a wedding invitation in the mail today from my husband’s nephew. First of all, we are to RSVP by tomorrow. (WHAT?) Here are our options in responding: Gladly attend Regretfully decline Resentfully attend Enthusiastically decline I’ll surprise you The invitation also asked which song we’d like “blasted over our awkward small talk.” Granted, there is some animosity among the groom’s father’s siblings, but I think this is rude, sarcastic and inappropriate. I have a sense of humor but do not find this funny. Am I off the mark? — INSULTED GUEST IN THE MIDWEST DEAR GUEST: Obviously, you and your husband would have preferred a more formal — and possibly more timely — invitation. Considering the sorry state of family relations on the groom’s side, the wording may have been an attempt at humor. It may also have been sincere. If you cannot GLADLY attend, rather than fume, send your regrets. DEAR ABBY: We don’t care much for the wife of one of our new neighbors. The husban

It"s a moment every parent knows well - when limited budgets take precedence over basic human decency. Steven watched in amazement as the exhausted parents carefully filled their bags with tiny milk cartons before heading out for a day of fun at a nearby theme park. With a start, the US man realised the couple were stealing the milk to “satisfy their little monsters for the entire day for free!” “The parents were completely abusing the system,” he wrote on Quora .  If you"ve ever travelled with kids this story will be familiar to you. The moment when your limited budget takes over from basic human decency and you find yourself loading Tupperware containers from home at the hotel buffet each morning.  So how much is too much to take? On this juicy topic, the internet seemed pretty divided. Sabre Norris gives great food buffet advice on "The Ellen Show" What"s wrong with taking a few muffins? Some savvy travellers thought it was completely fine to grab a few e

Talking points After 20 years behind bars, Earlonne Woods, an inmate at the San Quentin State Prison who hosts and co-produces the popular Ear Hustle podcast, has had his sentence commuted by the governor of California and will be released on parole. Despite Woods’s release, the podcast’s creators have said the series will continue, with more tales of life at the prison. This weekend sees the US premiere of Dirty John , the Connie Britton-starring TV remake of the hit true crime podcast. UK viewers will have to wait a little longer to watch the series, which has been acquired by Netflix, with no release date announced yet. You have a week to apply for the Google Podcasts Creator Program, which aims to provide a prospective podcasters with seed funding and intensive training to bring their stories to the air. The program is overseen by some major players in podcasting, including Pineapple Street Studios co-founder Jenna Weiss-Berman and the Allusionist host Helen Zaltzman . The applica

If leaving the house to see “Ralph Breaks the Internet” is too much trouble, try renting some of these films, watching them on-demand or pulling them out of your DVD collection: “Planes, Trains and Automobiles” (1987) — This laugh-out-loud comedy follows uptight businessman Steve Martin and goofy John Candy, forced together on a cross-country odyssey at Thanksgiving. This is the rare road movie that works. Rated R for profanity. “Arthur Christmas” (2011) — In this fast-paced and family-friendly film, Santa’s son, Arthur, must save Christmas by taking a long journey to deliver that last gift. Rated PG. “Disney’s A Christmas Carol” (2009) — Jim Carrey plays Scrooge in this animated version of the story. He also plays the three ghosts who haunt Scrooge. Be warned, however, that this 3-D film was produced through the process of performance capture, a technique director Robert Zemeckis previously used in his film “The Polar Express” (2004). Some folks love this effect; we find it creepy

There’s isn’t a Fallout 76 accolades trailer. Well, not an official one. Despite our own reviewer actually enjoying Bethesda’s new approach to the series, many didn’t. Right now, the average review rating on Metacritic stands at a lowly 50%, while the user rating stands at 2.7 out of 10. Many Fallout 76 reviews across the web berated the developer’s latest RPG, with some describing it as “empty”, “disappointing” and “soulless”. Unsurprisingly, we’ve yet to see an accolades trailer, though there is an unofficial one. We shouldn’t laugh as we personally don’t think it’s anywhere near as bad as people are making out, but it is quite funny, albeit quite sad that the Fallout series has found itself in this position. Check it out. [embedded content] Source: https://www.psu.com/news/fallout-76-accolades-trailer-is-funny-if-wasnt-so-sad/

W e’ve all experienced that immediate panic after saying something stupid. The hot rush of shame pumps through our bodies and we are gripped by the forlorn hope that we could rewind time. The claustrophobic fear that we are forever diminished in the eyes of those who witnessed our stupidity causes genuine panic. We are convinced that this is a moment from which we will never recover. Reading this may trigger you into remembering some daft thing you once said at a party or in a meeting. Imagine for a second not that you would never do this again but that, when you did, you would feel none of the usual shame and embarrassment. Now you know how it feels to be one of Theresa May’s cabinet ministers . The glut of ignorance we’ve had to suffer recently has highlighted a major problem: we are being led by people who don’t know what they are on about and are unabashed about admitting it in public. If ignorance were an energy source, you could power the country purely on former Brexit secretari
