Lady Gaga dressed in a comfortable low-key ensemble as she left her New York hotel on Wednesday and, it’s safe to say, it was a surprising departure for the usually wildly-dressed star. The pop singer, 35, beamed with joy as she emerged from the hotel and flashed two peace signs to fans. She wore a black Balenciaga tracksuit with her hood up and black sunglasses to shield her eyes from the flashing cameras. The Bad Romance singer – known for rocking meat dresses and insane heels the approximate height of a mountain – completed the relaxed look with white Nike trainers, and she carried a coffee cup in her hands. The look was worlds away from the fierce outfits Gaga had been spotted in this past week , however, she appeared to be on cloud nine following her concert with Tony Bennett on Tuesday evening. Gaga performed with the jazz legend at Radio City Music Hall, the second and last show will be on Thursday August 5. The highly anticipated evening was held on …

What does a town in war-torn eastern Ukraine have in common with New York City? On almost every conceivable level, absolutely nothing. There are no skyscrapers, yellow taxis or world-renowned museums. But that hasn't stopped locals in Novhorodske, near Donetsk, bidding to change its name to New York. A parliamentary committee has approved the switch, but it must now go before all MPs for its fate to be decided. What's the history of Novhorodske? It was founded by German settlers and first found on the map in 1846 with the name New York. It grew from only housing a few people to become the centre of several German settlements. The settlers were said to have been very religious and living a life secluded from others. They had their own schools and became rich, producing food and agricultural machinery. Germans began leaving Ukraine first after the Russian Revolution and then, during World War II, were forced out by the Soviets. The post-war era and the …

New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio said Wednesday that New York Governor Andrew Cuomo should be charged after a report by the state attorney general's office that found that Cuomo sexually harassed "multiple" women. "If you assault a woman, you do something against her will sexually, that's criminal, and the Albany County District Attorney is looking at that. And I think he should be charged," De Blasio said on "CBS This Morning." De Blasio said the "whole thing has been painful." "When you read this report, 11 women systematically wronged, 11 women affronted by a powerful guy who could crush their career and their reputation, and he's the kind of guy that everyone assumes would if you crossed him. And he harassed them. He assaulted them in several cases. It's not even close," de Blasio said. "And then he has the audacity to say, 'Oh, you know, I like to hug people.' I mean, that's just out of touch with reality. But it's also profoundly disrespectful. How about saying, …

At least four local prosecutors have requested materials from the New York Attorney General's investigation into sexual harassment allegations against Governor Andrew Cuomo . District attorneys from three counties on Wednesday announced they had requested information about alleged incidents that occurred in their counties, one day after the Albany County district attorney announced he had requested that information. The independent investigation by Attorney General Letitia James' office found that Cuomo sexually harassed at least 11 women , including members of his own staff and a state trooper, and that "such conduct was part of a pattern of behavior that extended to his interactions with others outside of State government." The report describes a series of incidents involving the 11 women that occurred in Albany, the state capital, as well as in other locations throughout the state. In a letter to James, Westchester District Attorney Mimi Rocah cited conduct …

The district attorney's offices of Westchester County, Manhattan, Albany, and Nassau County have announced they are formally seeking evidence from the New York AG in an effort to determine whether Cuomo's alleged conduct amounts to criminal charges in the respective districts. "As some of the Governor's conduct described in the report occurred in Westchester County, we have formally requested investigative materials obtained by the AG's Office," Westchester County District Attorney Mimi Rocah said in a statement. "As this is an ongoing investigation, we will not comment further at this time." According to James' 168-page investigative report, Rocah's probe will focus primarily on a New York State trooper assigned to the Protective Services Unit (PSU) of the New York Governor. The trooper, who described Cuomo as generally "flirtatious" and "creepy," was first spotted by the New York Governor at an event on the Robert F. Kennedy Bridge. Soon after, Cuomo recommended she join the …

Photo: Triller Last night’s Verzuz battle took place live from the Hulu Theater inside Madison Square Garden, because really, anywhere other than New York City would’ve just felt wrong. In front of a packed house inside, two of the area’s greatest rap crews, the Lox and Dipset , faced off in a battle where the only winner worth naming was New York itself. Returning after his 2020 Verzuz against Fabolous, Jadakiss led Yonkers group the Lox with bravado, talking shit between brash bars (“We got Grammys! These n- - - -s don’t know what Grammys look like, they know what grams look like!” he said during one choice moment), while Dipset hit back and held their own, representing Harlem. But really, when you hear Cam’ron’s “Welcome to New York City” and Ja Rule’s “New York, New York” back-to-back, who’s keeping score? Next, the crews are planning to take the show on the road with a joint tour in September — giving fans outside New York a chance to lace up their Timberlands and get …

A photo has been released which shows smiling New York governor Andrew Cuomo allegedly groping one of his assistants during a selfie – as a damning report claims he sexually harassed 11 women. The picture, released on Tuesday as part of the 165-page report into the disgraced governor’s sexual harassment allegations, shows him posing in a grey jumper while he sits back on a couch with an aide at his home. The staffer, named only as ‘Executive Assistant #1’ in the document, is one of the primary complainants in the report and is said to have told investigators that the governor had asked her to take selfies as they worked together inside his office in Albany, on December 31, 2019. As she held up the camera, Cuomo ‘moved his hand to grab her butt cheek and began to rub it’ for at least five seconds, the report claims. The assistant, who is described as in her 30s, ‘was shaking so much during this interaction’ that the photos came out blurry – which is when Cuomo …
