With her quarter-of-a-million boat, Kylie Jenner, who has chosen the life of luxury, reigns supreme this year. Rihanna and Jeff Bezos also made the decision to live in luxury.

As we watched through the lens of her drool-worthy Instagram posts, followers of Kylie Jenner couldn’t help but daydream about a ‘Euro summer’ on a yacht in Greece—until we saw the hefty price tag.

Floating somewhere along the Aegean Sea, the billionaire holidayed aboard what can only be described as a floating palace. But it wasn’t just any mega yacht, it was the iconic maritime masterpiece known as the Lady Britt.

The 207-foot boat was built by the well-known Dutch shipyard Feadship in 2011 and has a strong reputation because of her stunning design and facilities.

The boat was made for the high life, just like Kylie herself, and is rumored to cost an eye-watering $500, 000 for a single week.

The magic of the yacht’s staterooms, which can accommodate up to 12 guests, not to mention the 16-person onboard crew, can be found in its indulgent amenities.

There is no reason to ever leave the Lady Britt, and even the highest-paid celebs wouldn’t have many options given the cost of that. There is also an onboard wellness spa, hot tub, gym, and not one but two cinemas.

The 27-year-old joined her daughter Stormi, 7, and other well-known friends in soaking up everything Lady Britt had to offer, getting her money’s worth.

Additionally, there are two WaveRunners, two Jet Skis, and two Laser Pico sailboats for sea exploration.

If that weren’t enough to inspire your wanderlust, then wakeboards, kayaks, and scuba diving gear will undoubtedly ignite your wanderlust.

Of course, the yacht limousine that takes guests from their predetermined travel destinations back to their floating resort must be included.

It wasn’t just Kylie who chose to set sail this summer. In fact, there seems to be a trend amongst the elite for holidaying on luxury boats, and who better to set an example than pop star Rihanna and her partner A$AP Rocky?

The renowned duo would not need a hotel to host a party on the French Riviera, but a 143-foot superyacht called This Is It would be.

Following a Cannes film premiere, the boat was originally scheduled to cost €350, 000 per week to rent, but it was only used for a famous party for an A $AP Rocky and Ray-Ban collab.

Barbara Palvin, Kelly Rutherford, and Dylan Sprouse, the host and the Barbados singer, were just a few of the star-studded attendees.

Colombia’s President Petro accuses Peru of annexing disputed Amazon island

By in News, World News
A long-standing conflict between Colombia and Peru has been revived by Colombian President Gustavo Petro by accusing the neighboring country of Peru of annexing a disputed island on the Amazon River.

In a recent congressional vote, Petro claimed that Peru had “unilaterally” asserted control over the small island of Santa Rosa in a social media post on Tuesday.

On the social media platform X, Petro wrote, “The Peruvian government has just taken it by law.”

He added that Peru’s actions could prevent Leticia, a city in Colombia, from gaining access to the Amazon River. To defend our nation’s sovereignty, our government will use diplomatic means.

Petro’s remarks appeared to be in response to a vote in June that gave the island of Santa Rosa&nbsp, a district in its Loreto province, its name.

Peru and Colombia have debated who controls the island for almost a century.

Treaties from 1922 and 1929, which Peru signed, have affirmed ownership of Santa Rosa for decades.

However, Colombia maintains that the Santa Rosa island was not a part of the Amazon River at the time the treaties were signed and is therefore unaffected by them.

Additionally, it has been claimed that the treaties established a border between Colombia and the two nations at the deepest point along the Amazon River and that islands like Santa Rosa have grown up along the same dividing line.

The Peruvian government has simply taken the land that has appeared north of the current deepest line and placed Colombia’s capital on the land that, according to Petro, should have owned by the treaty.

He warned that the claims made by Peru to Santa Rosa could stifle trade and travel to nearby Leticia, which has a population of nearly 60 000.

Leticia could disappear as an Amazonian port, according to Petro’s statement on Tuesday, “which could lead to this unilateral action.”

On Thursday, Petro announced that he would hold celebrations in Leticia to mark Colombia’s declaration of its independence from Spain.

In a social media post, the Colombian Ministry of Foreign Affairs stated that it would push for more diplomatic means of determining the islands’ nationality.

Colombia has argued for years that bilateral work is necessary to be done in order to allocate islands, according to the ministry. The statement continued that Colombia “has reiterated the fact that Santa Rosa Island has not been given to Peru.”

The Amazon River has the most water discharged of any river, making it one of the longest in the world.

However, the river basin’s powerful currents deposit and rearrange sediment, creating islands and occasionally erasing them.

One of those younger islands is Santa Rosa. The village of Santa Rosa de Yavari, as well as the forest and farmland that surround the property, are now there.

According to Peru’s most recent census, the town has fewer than 1, 000 residents, and is largely dependent on tourism because of its close proximity to the Amazon.

Santa Rosa was designated as a district by the Peruvian government to ensure that it received federal funding and authority to collect taxes.

Senegal Edge Nigeria To Open CHAN Title Defence

By in News, sport-news

In their first group game of the African Nations Championships (CAN) title defense, Senegal defeated Nigeria 1-0 on Tuesday in a 1-0 win over Nigeria in Zanzibar’s Amaan stadium.

Before Senegal, who were hosting their West African rivals for the first time in the championships, broke the deadlock in the 75th minute, the match was evenly split between the two teams.

Serigne Koite, the Nigerian goalkeeper, pounced on a loose ball at the edge of the box, taping home the winner for Senegal.

In a game that was evenly contested, Senegal’s next opponents, Congo, defeated favourites Sudan 1-1 to draw 1-1.

After Musa Ali Hussein gave the Sudanese Falcons an early lead in the 29th minute, they were on course to score all three points.

Before releasing a right-footed shot from the left-hand corner, the Al Merrikh striker forged past two Congolese defenders to give his side a much-deserved lead.

However, underdogs Congo were able to seize the spoils in the final five minutes thanks to a defensive error.

In the 86th minute, substitute Carly Ekongo capitalized on a loose ball inside the penalty area to score the equalizer.

‘Electric wingers’ Antman & Gassama spark Rangers into life

Brian Laudrup’s name was not one many would have expected to be evoked when discussing Rangers’ wide men in the 3-0 thumping of Viktoria Plzen.

Former Rangers midfielder Derek Ferguson did admit it was ridiculously premature to suggest Djeidi Gassama or Oliver Antman could ever make the sort of impact the iconic Dane did at Ibrox.

But the comparison served to underline the impression the dynamic wingers had made on him and the Rangers fans as they ripped the Czech side to shreds in this Champions League third qualifying round first leg.

Gassama has exploded onto the scene since signing from Sheffield Wednesday.

His two fabulous goals, one in each leg, helped drag Rangers through a treacherous assignment against Panathinaikos and over the first hurdle on the road to the Champions League.

With Antman on the other flank offering similar pace, footwork and eye for goal just one day after joining the club, Rangers looked a team that had found a new gear.

What made them so dangerous?

Antman left his prints all over the game on his Rangers debut.

The Finnish winger – signed from Go Ahead Eagles, where he scored six goals and provided 15 assists in 32 games last term – was unlucky not to score when he saw a goal-bound effort blocked on the line.

He was brought down in the box after a surging run that resulted in the penalty that was tucked away by Cyriel Dessers.

His cross was measured to perfection for Gassama to knock inthe third goal to give Rangers daylight in the tie.

“I think you can see why we wanted to sign him,” said Rangers head coach Russell Martin of the 23-year-old, who has agreed a four-year deal.

“He’s game, he’s willing, he’s really competitive and he has moments of real quality. “

Gassama’s performance also drew praise from the head coach.

The Mauritania-born 21-year-old has now scored four goals in as many games since joining from Sheffield Wednesday in July – 50% of what he delivered in 47 matches last term.

Three of those goals have come in the Champions League, making them even more valuable to the Ibrox club given the potential riches on offer.

“We spoke about the need for some winger-to-winger goals and Gassama is really stepping up in terms of intensity, he really wants to score,” Martin added.

What did the pundits say?

Former Rangers winger Peter Lovenkrands:

“Antman has shown fantastic promise. He’s looking very, very exciting and he has a bundle of pace. And I love how Gassama attacks the back post.

“I love watching two wingers running in behind and they can make a fantastic partnership. It will definitely get fans out of their seats. “

Former Rangers midfielder Andy Halliday:

“I was so impressed with Antman. He had everything. His work rate was excellent and he did a great job.

“You can already see why he got so many assists last season. He doesn’t just drive it into the box, he tries to pick players out.

“Gassama is direct, quick and great 1v1. He was a constant threat and caused defenders a lot of problems. “

Former Rangers midfielder Derek Ferguson:

“The wingers gave Rangers an injection of pace in the final third was clearly missing against Motherwell.

“Antman was sensational. He’s very direct and lightning quick and I can’t remember him giving the ball away. His decision making was spot on. “
