We’ve never actually produced an album with just the three of us, Taylor continued. No additional partners are present. Making a focused album is just the three of us, where… To be honest, it felt like catching lightning in a bottle.

In her most recent memoir, Priscilla Presley claims Elvis Presley called her while Kim Kardashian’s father was in bed. On September 23rd, the 80-year-old author will release her second book, Softly, As I Leave You: Life After Elvis.

In 1975, Priscilla started dating Hollywood attorney Robert after divorcing Elvis and starting a relationship with Mike Stone. She claimed that they first met while Robert’s brother, Tom, was in a friend’s life.

Things didn’t turn out as planned, though, because Robert and I couldn’t spend much time together due to their demanding jobs. After her divorce, she explained that Robert was eager to get married, but Priscilla didn’t want to do so.

The former couple went on to remain friends, with Priscilla claiming that Robert’s daughter, Kim Kardashian, called her from the hospital shortly before his death from cancer in 2003.

In her book, she asserted that Robert and I had a final conversation before he passed away. I have a strong memory of him in my heart because he was one of the most kind men.

However, Elvis, Priscilla’s ex-husband, called awkwardly during one crucial period of the relationship. She was allegedly called at 2 a.m. while Robert and Elvis were in bed.

The legendary musician was said to be interested in discussing one of his earlier appearances, but he was unaware that his ex-wife was sleeping with a different man.

If Priscilla had known Robert was in my bedroom, he might have gone ballistic, if he had known that. Elvis always had more than one loaded gun with him.

Kardashian and Elvis never learned about the awkward phone call, and she claimed that she had no idea how to find out about it. After having four children, Kourtney, Kim, Khloe, and Robert Jr., Robert tied the knot with Kris Jenner in 1978.

Priscilla also talks about her daughter Lisa Marie in her new memoir. Lisa Marie Presley passed away suddenly in January 2023.

Priscilla has since described the terrible situation in which she had to remove her daughter’s life support. She stated, “I was immediately aware that Lisa was already gone when I first entered her hospital room.”

She had a heartbeat and was hooked up to a breathing machine. There was little brain activity. Her spirit, which was always so vital, was absent.

She added that her granddaughter, Riley Keough, felt Lisa Marie die, even though she did not make it to the hospital in time. “Riley later told us that while she was still on her flight, she had felt her mother’s spirit pass,” Priscilla continued. “But none of us was ready to give up yet.”

Kate Moss and Madonna party into early hours at boozy London Fashion Week event

By in Entertainment News, News

The exclusive venue’s reopening of The Chiltern Firehouse in honor of London Fashion Week attracted the attention of supermodel Kate Moss and singer Madonna.

After London Fashion Week, two famous faces, Kate Mossand Madonna, held an exclusive party at the end of the night to party the night away. After a fire earlier this year caused the Chiltern Firehouse to temporarily reopen its lobby for a party during London Fashion Week, The Chiltern Firehouse was once dubbed “London’s hottest celebrity hangout.”

Noel Gallagher, Iris Law, and Ellie Goulding are just a few examples of other celebrities who have attended the exclusive venue. The opulent venue caught fire earlier this year, igniting the entire ground floor and the entire room. Later, it was discovered that the building’s extraction system was in flames.

According to reports, the fire started just before the Valentine’s Day dinner service. Celebrities and royalty frequent The Chiltern Firehouse hotel and restaurant. It occupies a Grade II-listed building inside a former fire station.

It was previously referred to as London’s “hottest celebrity handout” after its opening in 2013. Lewis Capaldi and Princess Beatrice are just two celebrities who have stayed at the hotel. Owner André Balazs described the “outpouring of affection and longing for Chiltern Firehouse.” “We’re very appreciative of the loyalty and enthusiasm of both our guests and staff,” said the company.

Not even the Pope could persuade me to change tactics – Amorim

Ruben Amorim, the head coach of Manchester United, claims the Pope is unable to persuade him to change his controversial formation.

Following the Manchester derby defeat at Etihad Stadium, minority shareholder Sir Jim Ratcliffe, who flew into the Carrington training ground on Thursday in his helicopter, has also been a highlight of another turbulent week at the club.

Instead of having some sort of emergency summit, United officials described the visit as “pre-planned.”

Amorim, whose side have only won one game from four Premier League games this season and been knocked out of the EFL Cup by League Two Grimsby, laughed as he explained what had been discussed.

In spite of widespread criticism, he even managed a joke when the questioning turned to the more serious issue of whether Ratcliffe had suggested he might want to switch to the 3-4-1 formation Amorim is stubbornly refusing to do so.

“No, no, no”, he said. “No one. The Pope won’t change, either…

Amorim continues to use his system despite changing his mind.

He believes that if he leans forward under pressure, his position will be undermined by his teammates.

When a player and a coach say, “You need to change the system, and people all over the world say, and they’re under pressure,” they will look at me differently.

When you consider the potential impact of a decision on the team, everything is important.

I’m acting in my own way. Although I’d like to have more time to change, it will be evolutionary.

Amorim says he fully comprehends the need to win games before Chelsea visits Old Trafford.

Amorim is aware that his three games against Chelsea, Brentford, and recently promoted Sunderland have the potential to alter the narrative surrounding him, despite United officials’ objections to the notion that he has the three games until the following month’s international break to save his job.

Bruno Fernandes will likely start in a deeper midfield role against Chelsea as a result of Matheus Cunha’s £62 million injury.

Following a similar error that gave Emile Smith Rowe the opportunity to equalize for Fulham at Craven Cottage last month, Fernandes has been cited as evidence that the 31-year-old should be moved higher up the pitch in response to Fernandes’ failure to track Phil Foden’s run into the United penalty area.

Amorim’s explanation of why he thinks Fernandes can play more effective in the middle of his midfield was not the first.

In an effort to control the game, Bruno said, “I want more possession.”

He is entering the box and is able to make his shots, perhaps not with the same freedom.

“Sometimes we have a little gap in front of Bruno, but we always have a player with us.”

I’m just trying to find balance between the team and the game, and Bruno fits that description.

Meanwhile, Jason Wilcox, the club’s director of football, has shared a rare interview about the “challenges” he has encountered since he joined in April 2024.

The 54-year-old said he “thought the club was in much better place than it was” and that “the entire structure of Manchester United needed to change” during a Q&amp, A shared by Man Utd The Religion YouTube channel on Thursday night.

US gov’t asks Supreme Court to end protections for Venezuelan migrants

By in News, World News

Published On 19 Sep 2025

The US government has requested a second request from the Supreme Court: to grant a temporary order allowing it to revoke more than 300,000 Venezuelan migrants’ legal protections.

The Department of Justice filed an urgent request on Friday asking the Supreme Court to overturn a federal judge’s decision that Kristi Noem, the country’s top immigration official, lacked the authority to end the immigrant’s Temporary Protected Status (TPS).

The Justice Department argued in its filing to the court that the secretary must permit over 300, 000 Venezuelan nationals to remain in the country despite her justification that even temporarily doing so is “contrary to the national interest.”

The Supreme Court overturned a temporary order from US District Judge Edward Chen in San Francisco in May that had halted TPS while the case was pending in court.

Secretary Noem’s decision was deemed to be in violation of a federal law that regulates the conduct of government agencies by Chen’s final decision on September 5.

The Justice Department told the Supreme Court that “this case is well-known and involves the becoming increasingly well-known and untenable phenomenon of lower courts disregarding this court’s orders on the emergency docket.”

The lower courts and litigants are bound by this court’s rulings. It is unacceptable to disregard those orders, whether they are lengthy or just one sentence, as the lower courts did here.

In recent years, millions of people have fled Venezuela as a result of political repression and a crippling economic crisis, which were exacerbated in part by US sanctions against President Nicolas Maduro’s government.

Former US President Joe Biden’s administration extended TPS to about 600,000 Venezuelans through October 2026 before leaving office.

TPS, which was established by the US Congress in 1990, provides asylum to residents of the US who are facing deportation because of extraordinary circumstances like armed conflict or environmental disasters.

Trump-Xi call thaws US-China relations, but no clear TikTok deal yet

By in News, World News

Donald Trump has praised a TikTok “deal” with China for the better part of this week, but experts say it is still far from being finalized after both sides revealed details of his phone call with Chinese President Xi Jinping.

The two leaders had their first phone call in three months on Friday, but nothing about the sale of the well-known social media app, which has 170 million US users.

The version from Beijing was not as clear as Trump’s statement in a post following the call on Truth Social, which Trump later said in a post.

According to the meeting summary in Xinhua, Xi stated that “the Chinese government respects the will of firms and welcomes companies to conduct business negotiations on the basis of market rules to reach a solution that is compatible with Chinese laws and regulations while balancing interests,” according to the meeting summary, according to the Reuters news agency.

Experts didn’t seem surprised by this.

Trump is the type of person to frequently make announcements that there are agreements or agreements that still need to be finalized, according to Rachel Ziemba, an adjunct senior fellow at the Center for a New American Security.

If that happens, Ziemba predicted that the bigger trade deal will likely be awaiting Trump and Xi’s meeting with Xi during the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation forum, which will begin in Gyeongju, South Korea, on October 31.

Experts concur that the leaders talking is in itself a sign of a thaw, especially given that Xi had previously refused to speak with Trump despite meetings held in Geneva, London, and most recently in Madrid, despite the lack of any particular developments from Friday’s call.

Wei Liang, a professor at Middlebury Institute of International Studies, where she specializes in international trade and Chinese foreign economic policy, said, “At least they have broken ice after a long while, and it seems like they are ready to negotiate other more difficult issues.”

Some scholars, she said, argued that the recent months were worse than the US and former Soviet Union’s Cold War, when both countries’ leaders at least had a hotline in place.

The request came days after Trump extended China’s ByteDance’s fourth-ever deadline to sell its stake in TikTok or face a US ban, as required by a law passed last year with overwhelming bipartisan support and later upheld by the Supreme Court.

If it occurs, it will be a very complicated transaction, according to Robert Rogowsky, an adjunct professor of trade and economic diplomacy at Georgetown University’s School of Foreign Service, both because Beijing won’t leave the app and because there won’t be any rules or clarification for future owners.

The algorithm that chooses what we want to see is what gives TikTok its name, Rogowsky said.

The real issue with TikTok’s ownership is its “ability to influence” viewers through the algorithm, Rogowsky claimed, despite the focus on data security in recent discussions about the company’s ownership.

“Think about the power that the owners, the creators of that extraordinarily sophisticated algorithm that controls people’s viewing, when they are in direct control of a political party or group [aligned with one], have a lot of power over.”

According to Middlebury’s Liang, it’s unlikely that China will abandon the algorithm, and it’s anticipated that this agreement will result in a “mere exit” that would allow both the US and China to get what they want.

China’s “stronger, bolder position”

According to experts, a meeting between the two leaders will have to be hammer out a larger trade agreement on a number of other issues, including China’s purchase of Russian oil and access to US semiconductor chips.

According to Ziemba, “Trump himself is not in a position to impose new tariffs on China, and that is a reflection of the fact that the US government has conflicting interests with respect to China, and that the Chinese control some very important choke points,” he said.

Rogowsky agrees that “China is taking a much stronger, bolder position with regard to the US, partly because that’s how China operates.”

He added that Beijing may have some justification for that confidence, citing Beijing’s recent directive to businesses to refrain from purchasing chips from US-based Nvidia.
