Naga Munchetty’s husband nicknamed her after children’s character following incident

After an awkward fashion incident, Naga Munchetty was given the nickname “Naga Munchetty” after a well-known children’s character.

The BBC Breakfast presenter, 50, recounted the time she bought two pairs of dungarees and asked her husband, James Haggar, for his opinion – which didn’t go down well. Speaking on Alan Carr’s Life’s A Beach podcast, the broadcaster said: “I decided I was going to buy some dungarees.

” I haven’t worn dungarees, probably since I was about six, and I thought ‘ I’m regressing, so I’m going to embrace that’. So I bought two pairs of dungarees. The second pair, which were pale denim shorts, became a big joke for her husband because the first pair were a classic dark blue set.

Naga said:” The second pair were pale denim shorts-dungarees. Quite cool. But I put them on… I’m typically very confident with what I purchase and wear. I know what suits me, I’d like to think. But I thought ‘ Oh, I’m not quite sure about these’. So I went over to my husband, James, and said ‘ What do you think? ‘ “

James ‘ bent over double ‘ laughing at the look. She continued:” He went ‘ Oh my gosh, you look like Humpty Dumpty’. They were returned right away and immediately placed back in the bag. Naga also revealed that earlier this month, her gruesome health battle had reached a critical point when the suffering required the call of an ambulance.

She revealed that she had adenomyosis and had to work with doctors to get it treated in 2023. Naga described the agonizing symptoms in an interview with The Times that were initially dismissed as just a “normal period.”

She said:”]A normal period] It’s not throwing up. It’s not diarrhoea. You’re sweating through pain, fainting, cramping over, and putting yourself on painkillers way more than you should be, from the age of 15, so it’s not like hugging a toilet and crying. The actor claimed that a particularly repulsive episode prompted the need for emergency assistance.

During this ordeal, she instructed her husband, acclaimed TV director James, to ensure doctors didn’t perform a hysterectomy on her unless she was conscious. She first shared her health struggles with the crippling gynecological condition in a segment on BBC Radio 5 Live in 2023, even admitting to experiencing pain while being on the air.

Naga began her successful broadcasting career with Reuters Financial Television. Since then, she moved on to ascend the ranks, securing roles on CNBC, Channel 4 and now the BBC.

Liam Payne manslaughter – blow for three men who had charges dropped as police consider appeal

Following Liam Payne’s fatal balcony plunge in the Buenos Aires hotel, prosecutors in Argentina have confirmed they are considering appealing the decision to drop the manslaughter charges against three men.

In October, the One Direction star tragically passed away in the age of 31 leaving his devoted circle of fans heartbroken. Following Liam’s death, three people were charged in Argentina in November, but the charges were dropped last week.

However, in their first statement since it emerged last week that US businessman Mr. Nores, a close friend of Liam’s, and two hotel employees were in the clear, they are now “evaluating appeals.”

At the end of December, judges upheld a charge against the trio, but decided that two more men who had been accused of selling Liam cocaine before he allegedly fell from the CasaSur Palermo Hotel should continue to face charges.

Mr Nores (first left) said last week he was ‘ delighted ‘ to be cleared of any involvement in Liam’s death, but now prosecutors may appeal the decision

A spokesman for Argentinian public prosecutors said: “The Public Prosecutor’s Office and the plaintiffs will now evaluate the appeals that correspond to the part of the ruling that was not in accord with the corresponding charges. “The Public Prosecutor’s Office and the plaintiffs will now evaluate the appeals that corresponded the part of the ruling that was not in accord with the corresponding charges.

Mr Nores said last week he was “delighted” to be cleared of any involvement in Liam’s death. He subsequently confirmed he would travel to the UK to “say goodbye” to his friend.

Nores was found guilty of any criminal wrongdoing by the appeal court judges because he had not assumed “special obligations” that could have contributed to the star’s death, as the prosecution had confirmed.

Esteban Grassi, the hotel’s chief receptionist who called 911 moments before Liam’s passing, and Gilda Martin, its head of security, were the only two men who were given access to the open last Wednesday following the appeal hearing for the February 11 appeal.

In the most agonizing photo of the former One Direction singer, which shows him being led back to his room from his hotel lobby shortly before his balcony plunge, Grassi was one of the three men pictured alongside Martin.

They would have faced prison sentences of one to five years if they had been found guilty, but they had been informed that they could receive a suspended jail sentence. On conviction, the two men charged with drug trafficking have been warned that they could face prison sentences of up to 15 years.

Millie Bobby Brown unrecognisable at Netflix premiere and fans can’t believe her real age

When Marilyn Bobby Brown stepped out on the red carpet on Monday for the premiere of her new movie, her fans shook their hands.

At the Egyptian Theatre in Los Angeles, the Stranger Things actress posed for photos with her husband, 22-year-old Jake Bongiovi, who she wed last year.

For the audience-studded premiere of The Electric State, Millie looked stunning in a busty, beaded gold gown with structured hips and a dramatic collared cape. However, fans couldn’t get over her dramatic appearance, with some saying she looked a decade older than her actual age.

The actress, 21, is now sporting bleach blonde hair, which she piled on top of her head with a thick fringe for the premiere. Her long, manicured nails and glittering gold jewelry both had predictably glamorous make-up. However, some fans were offended by the fact that one user claimed they had to “Google her date of birth to be certain” and that she appeared older than she was.

Millie’s weekend SAG Awards appearance also perplexed fans. The actress looked stunning while wearing a peach silk gown and bun-ties with her husband to the pre-cursor to the Oscars.

However, some fans thought she looked at like she was in her thirties with her elegant appearance as one said on social media: “Already looking like 30-year-old” while another asked: “How come she looks 30+”?

Time flies, especially considering that Millie made her Stranger Things debut at the age of 12 when she made her debut. “Stunning” posted one, who added: “It’s weird watching them grow up before our eyes. I don’t think I’ll ever get used to it. It’s similar to watching my own daughters grow and prosper. Meanwhile, another mused: “Eleven is all grown up”.

After knotting with Jon Bon Jovi’s son Jake in June of last year, Millie confirmed that she was married. Following their engagement more than a year ago, the couple’s engagement was first reported to have taken place in May.

Millie shared a number of photos of herself and her new husband enjoying a day at Universal Studios Orlando as she celebrated her new status on Instagram.

The actress can be seen wearing a pair of denim shorts with the word “wifey” written all over the back in the adorable pictures. She also rocked a white baseball cap with the phrase: “Wife of the party”. Captioning the images, newlywed Millie wrote: “Who wants to go to @universalorlando???? Ussssssssss”.

Another customer complained that the navy spotted dress was see-through because the cut is lovely and very flattering. The dress is white from the base of the fabric. Sadly had to return”.

The Beatles fans were left ‘surprised’ by one George Harrison solo album

George Harrison’s solo album, which came out shortly after the band split, shocked Beetles fans.

As music and Beatles fans dissected Harrison’s unique musical talents, surprise echoed through a Reddit thread. Known as the “quiet one” in the band, Harrison, who was born 82 years ago on February 25, 1943, and passed away on November 29, 2001, would collaborate with legends like Bob Dylan, Jeff Lynne, and Roy Orbison post-Beatles.

Yet, it’s his post-breakup solo ventures that have caught fans off guard the most. Was George Harrison’s subsequent prolific solo career surprised by the controversy over his controversial quote?

“Considering that for the most part John and Paul were the Beatles’ main songwriting duo? Or was it known that George had a lot of talent but needed to produce in his own time and space? “

Despite contributing classics such as Something, While My Guitar Gently Weeps, and Taxman to the Beatles’ repertoire, some listeners were amazed at Harrison’s ability to churn out hits consistently on his own. According to critics, his 1970 triple album All Things Must Pass is considered one of his best achievements.

One fan expressed surprise by saying, “I think people were surprised that he could write so many great songs.” He had previously only composed a small number of Beatles songs. “

One fan took a nostalgic trip, reminiscing: “Zero surprise. I can recall buying Wonderwall brand-new in 1968 and anticipating that he would eventually fly solo. “

Another reflected on George Harrison’s journey: “George Harrison DID have a prolific solo career, until the dark horse North American tour, at least this is how it’s perceived by rock press. Harrison has [… ] good work, but still, in my mind, nothing really comes close to his early 70s work.

His reputation suffered as a result of his biggest solo song being flagged as plagiarism. “

Harrison faced a legal battle over “My Sweet Lord”, which was found by Judge Richard Owen of the United States District Court in Manhattan to have been “subconsciously” plagiarised from The Chiffons’ song “He’s So Fine”.

Judge Owen declared: “It is clear that My Sweet Lord is the very same song as ‘He’s So Fine. This is a violation of copyright under the law, and it is no less so despite being unconsciously accomplished. “

Despite this, some argue that Harrison’s solo records stand shoulder to shoulder with the works of Lennon and McCartney. Fans complained that Lennon and McCartney’s late Beatles era was comparable to that of his. So if people were surprised they weren’t paying attention. “

Some people emphasize the impact of his solo material, saying, “I think All Things Must Pass’s songs were pleasantly surprised by the volume and level of their music. But I wouldn’t say he had a prolific solo career. “

The conversation continues with strong opinions, such as “That record is astonishing and by far the best Beatles solo album and album ever.” But after that, he never quite came close to it.

He quit in the early 1980s because “the next record was good, but then every subsequent record was worse and worse.” Then, a few years later, he only released Cloud Nine once more throughout his lifetime. “

Chris Jasper, former Isley Brothers member, dies at 73 after cancer diagnosis

Chris Jasper, the singer-songwriter who influenced the Isley Brothers’ transition from a vocal trio to a chart-topping powerhouse in the 1970s and 1980s, has sadly passed away.

The news was announced by Jasper’s family on Facebook on Monday, revealing that he had died on Sunday, February 23. The late singer’s family revealed in an obit posted on Chris’ official website that he had been diagnosed with cancer in December of last year.

Michelle Missy Jasper wrote: “My Uncle Chris Jasper, a former Isley brothers, and Isley Jasper Isley, passed away with a deep sadness and a heavy heart. Chris and his family gathered around him yesterday and passed away. Please pray for the entire Jasper family as privacy and respect are currently being sought.

“His innovative work has influenced generations of musicians, with his compositions being sampled and covered extensively by countless recording artists including Whitney Houston, Aaliyah, Notorious B. I. G., Tupac Shakur, Queen Latifah, Jay-Z, Snoop Dogg, Gwen Stefani, Fantasia, Will Smith, and Jaheim”, Chris ‘ family wrote on his verified Facebook when announcing his death.

“Beyond his musical achievements, Chris was a dedicated and loving husband and father. He is survived by his wife of 42 years, Margie Jasper, a New York-based attorney and author, and his three sons Michael, Nicholas, and Christopher. He will be greatly missed, and generations will continue to be inspired by his legacy.

Born on December 30, 1951, in Cincinnati, Ohio, Chris was a musical prodigy. At the tender age of seven, he began studying classical music, learning the complexity of classical piano, and tickling the ivorys. His unmatched musical talent and fervor for music led him to the prestigious Juilliard School of Music in New York City, where jazz legend Billy Taylor mentored him on his way to earning a Bachelor of Fine Arts in music composition.

The Isley Brothers evolved from a vocal trio into a six-member R&amp, B, and Funk powerhouse when Chris and his siblings Ernie and Marvin Isley collaborated in 1973. His mastery of songwriting and production was at the heart of the band’s distinctive vibe when Chris took the keyboard. Memorable hits flowed like For the Love of You, Between the Sheets, and the charged-up Fight the Power.
