Emma Watson is retiring from acting. The Hollywood star reached unimaginable heights of fame after she landed the role of Hermione Granger in hit franchise Harry Potter at just 10 years old. Now 30, Emma has decided to step away from the silver screen as her agent told Daily Mail that she is “dormant” from her career and won’t be taking on any new projects for the foreseeable future. Emma's decision to quit acting was reportedly spurred on by her desire to spend more quality time with rumoured fiancé Leo Robinton. The pair have been dating for 18 months and it seems as though their romance is going from strength to strength. The Mirror has contacted Emma's reps for comment. Though Emma has remained tight-lipped on her current relationship with Leo, she has been open about her views on dating in the past. In a previous interview, the actress said: "The boyfriends or partners I’ve had have generally made me feel really cherished. They’ve built me up.” While she … [Read more...] about Emma Watson retires from acting 20 years after finding fame in Harry Potter

Lady Gaga’s French bulldogs found after being stolen at gunpoint
Lady Gaga's French bulldogs have been found safe and unharmed - two days after being stolen at gunpoint in Los Angeles. Koji and Gustav were handed in at LAPD's Olympic Community Police Station on Friday by a woman who appears to be "uninvolved and unassociated" with the armed robbery. It isn't clear how she came to have the animals, but both dogs have now been safely reunited with the pop star's representatives. Gaga had been offering $500,000 for their safe return - and had written in a previous Instagram post that she was praying for their safe return because her "heart is sick". Her friend Ryan Fischer, who was shot while walking three of her dogs, is expected to make a full recovery. A car had pulled up alongside him, with the men inside demanding him to hand over the animals. The third dog managed to flee. Advertisement "I can confirm that the dogs have been located and are safe," Captain Jonathan Tippet said. Detectives are now appealing … [Read more...] about Lady Gaga’s French bulldogs found after being stolen at gunpoint

A FIREFIGHTER is accused of stabbing his pregnant wife to death before killing her daughter as she tried to protect her mum. Konstantin Kapustin, 25, allegedly stabbed new bride Marina Kapustina, 30, and five-year-old Nikol, 25 times with a kitchen knife in Russia. The horrific incident occurred at the family’s house in the city of Vologda, in the north-west of the country, two weeks after the couple’s wedding.

Why vaccinate the Queen but deny a priority jab to teachers and police officers?
Welcome to HMS Bubble, where the pandemic meant the Queen and Prince Philip were forced to live under the same roof, with just a handful of chefs, footmen, maids, housekeepers, clock-winders and 24-hour police security for company. The staff were bubbled, kept apart from their families, and regularly tested for coronavirus, as Her Majesty took part in Zoom calls someone else had set up for her, did her paperwork at the same desk she's sat at for 69 years, and was able to keep Boris Johnson at arm's length with a weekly phone call. Leave this working-from-castle luxury behind, now, and step into the home of a teacher, 35 and a little overweight, as she tries to teach 30 children in a Google hangout using a broadband system dependent on 100-year-old telephone lines. Consider the extra hours she has worked unpaid, the vulnerable pupils whose problems have kept her awake at night, and fears for her own health as the government orders her back to school with perhaps 300 walking … [Read more...] about Why vaccinate the Queen but deny a priority jab to teachers and police officers?
