Brian Cox was left red faced after accidentally giving fans more than they bargained for. The Succession star, 79, mistakenly flashed his private parts while on stage discussing his new movie Glenrothan.

As he sat in a tartan kilt chatting to the crowd at the Toronto International Film Festival., he was told about his manhood mishap, leaving him to brush it off in a typical jokey manner. The incident left the crowd in laughter, making him close his legs.

However, the star’s wardrobe malfunction happened again just moments later. And he went on to confess to the audience why he didn’t have underpants on for the occasion.

“Whose idea was it to wear these f*****g kilts?,” he joked. “Certainly not my idea.”

He the blamed the producer for coming up with the outfit plan. “They can be so vengeful,” he quipped. “But you have to wear the kilt the proper way.

“Is it that bad? The kilt is designed to make you cool and free. And it’s a f*****g wonderful freedom.”

And he revealed he had only recently been watching a similar skit in iconic sitcom Friends. In the scene, Phoebe’s boyfriend opted against wearing underwear while wearing baggy clothes.

“It’s so funny because I was bored yesterday and I was watching an old episode of Friends,” Cox confessed. “It was about a guy who kept showing himself as he’s wearing these shorts. I thought, ‘Oh God, I hope that doesn’t happen to me tomorrow when I’m wearing the kilt’.”

Earlier in the year, Cox admitted to using Ozempic as he issued a blunt statement about the drug. It came as he appeared on The Jonathan Ross Show.

Admitting his use, Cox made sure to make it clear why he was using the drug – and that’s for it’s intended use. After Jonathan complimented the actor on how trim he was looking, the actor replied: “I know because…Ozempic.

“No, it’s true. I am a diabetic and Ozempic is for diabetics, it is not for fat people.”

Ozempic is a brand name for semaglutide, a medication used to treat type 2 diabetes. It belongs to a class of drugs called glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists. Semaglutide works by mimicking the action of the hormone GLP-1, which helps regulate blood sugar levels by stimulating insulin secretion, slowing down gastric emptying, and reducing appetite.

Whle Cox is using it for health reasons, celebrities such as Sharon Osbourne and Stephen Fry have confirmed their use of the drug to try to lose weight. However, Sharon has urged others to think twice about using Ozempic after her own experience.

She admitted to taking the drug in 2023. However, she said it left her feeling constantly queasy. She lost 42lbs but has since admitted she is desperate to put some weight on but can’t – despite having quit the medication.

Donald Trump can now add footballer’s wife Rebekah Vardy to the extensive list of people he has annoyed across the world.

The US president landed at London Stansted airport on Air Force One on Tuesday evening before taking the Marine One helicopter to Winfield House in Regent’s Park, central London, where he stayed the night.

The American leader is being feted with a stay in Windsor Castle during his historic second state visit, where he will be hosted by the King and treated to a ceremonial welcome on Wednesday and later, a lavish state banquet.

But not everyone is rolling out the red carpet for Trump. Rebekah Vardy was less than impressed the president’s official jet in Europe thanks to his travel meddling with her own travel plans.

Rebekah, who is now splitting her time between the UK and Italy due to husband Jamie Vardy’s new job, took to social media on Tuesday night to voice her displeasure at seeing Trump was in town.

After sharing a slew of snaps of herself watching Jamie play for his new club Unione Sportiva Cremonese, an Italian Serie A club, the mum-of-five posted a picture of a shuttle bus at an airport and told her followers: “And back to the UK again [head blown emoji].”

The I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! star then returned to her Instagram Stories after the sun set to share an image of Trump’s Air Force One plane in the night sky, moaning: “Love a delayed flight courtesy of Donald [crying emoji].”

Before being irked by Trump, Rebekah was all smiles as she watched Jamie make his Cremonese debut on Monday night. The former England ad Leicester City striker failed to find the back of the net during his new team’s 0-0 draw at Hellas Verona.

Rebekah seemingly enjoyed the attention as she watched on from the stands – at one point taking a snap of the photographers on the pitch aiming their cameras at her as she settled into her new life as an Italian WAG.

Fresh from dampening Rebekah’s new La Dolce Vita lifestyle, Trump is set to rub shoulders with royalty today thank to the first full day of his state visit being confined to the private Windsor estate.

Prince William and Kate Middleton will play a key role in entertaining the president, who is known for his love of the royal family, and First Lady Melania Trump.

William and Kate will meet the American couple in the grounds of the Windsor estate later today. Camilla, Queen Consory – who spent Tuesday afternoon resting at Windsor Castle, having pulled out of attending the Duchess of Kent’s funeral on Tuesday after suffering from acute sinusitis – is said to be hopeful she will recover in time to attend the busy run of royal events including the glittering banquet.

The Prince and Princess of Wales are expected to escort Trump and his wife a short distance to see the King and Queen Consort for an open air greeting nearby.

Ervin ‘proud’ as Ballymena United beat Linfield

Pacemaker

Ballymena United manager Jim Ervin was “proud” of his players’ efforts as they bounced back from three defeats to stun Linfield at the Showgrounds on Tuesday.

Matthew Clarke’s first half header was enough for the Braidmen to take the win which saw them move up into fourth as the Blues suffered their first league defeat of the season.

Ervin’s side was hit with a last-gasp sucker-punch at Cliftonville on Saturday but responded in fine style to get back into the winning column.

“The response is what we were after and we truly got it today,” the Ballymena manager told BBC Sport NI.

“You’re playing the league champions, so they are going to have a lot of the ball and will put you under a lot of pressure.

“We defended really well on Saturday considering we were down to 10 men and lost it late on. It was cruel and our job to pick the players up. I don’t think any of our boys missed a header, missed a tackle or a block in the box, so what more can you ask for?”

Tuesday’s win ought to boost the Sky Blues’ confidence as they now turn their attention to Saturday’s trip to face Crusaders at Seaview (15:00 BST).

Ervin said he wouldn’t let emotions from Tuesday’s win take over and “come out with anything stupid” but has challenged his players to replicate the effort they put in against the defending league champions.

“We need to dust ourselves down and give the same effort, commitment and determination, but we need to be better on the ball,” he stressed.

“A lot of people wrote us off tonight as we had three difficult games against Larne, Glentoran and Cliftonville. For the players to bounce back from that last-minute goal on Saturday, I’m so proud of them.
