And I appreciate you so much, you’ve given me my confidence as well,” read a comment.

On Ozempic rumours

Earlier this year in September, Lizzo had shut down allegations of using Ozempic to lose weight. She shared a short reel on Instagram and at the bottom added the text: “When you finally get ozempic allegations after 5 months of weight training and calorie deficit.” This was followed by a screenshot of a user’s comment who accused her of using ozempic or “coke”. The comment read, “Did she use ozempic or did she snort coke” to which the grammy winner replied, “Whyyyy do you follow me?” along with crying face emojis.

The caption of the reel posted by Lizzo read, “oZeMpIc oR cOke? – a fan”.

Lizzo had earlier talked about losing weight in an interview with The New York Times in March. “I don’t really see it because if anyone who’s on a natural weight-loss journey knows, losing weight is actually the slowest thing in the world and you don’t really notice it until you notice it,” she said.

Social media sites ask Australia to delay ban on users under 16 by one year: Report


An advocate representing major social media platforms said the possibly upcoming laws which ban children in Australia under the age of 16 from accessing the sites should be delayed till next year at least, news agency AP reported.

A research by the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health found X, Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube and Snapchat made $11 billion in advertising from US users under 18 in 2022(Representational Image/Pixabay)

The advocate was Sunita Bose, managing director of Digital Industry Group Inc., representing social media platforms in Australia including X (Formerly Twitter), Instagram, Facebook and TikTok.

Bose was answering questions at a single-day Senate committee hearing into the world’s first legislation, which was introduced in parliament last week, said parliament should first wait for the government-commissioned evaluation of age assurance technologies set to be completed in June.

“Parliament is asked to pass a bill this week without knowing how it will work,” the report quoted Bose as saying.

She referred to the legislation which if passed by parliament by Thursday, would lead to fines of up to 50 million Australian dollars ($33 million) on the platforms if they fail to prevent young children from having accounts.

When opposition Senator Ross Cadell asked how his 10-year-old stepson was able to have Instagram, Snapchat, and YouTube accounts from the age of 8 despite an age limit of 13, Bose said,“This is an area where the industry needs to improve,” adding that it would take a year to work out solutions for this.

Bose added that the ban risked isolating children and even driving some to “darker, less safe online spaces” which “could compromise the safety of young people.”

Senator Sarah Henderson said, “that’s an outrageous statement. You’re trying to protect the big tech giants.”

When asked about children being exposed to harmful material, Bose said algorithms were already in place to protect young people online with functions such as filtering out nudity.

Bose also said she was unaware of how much advertising revenue the platforms made from Australian children. 

For example, a research by the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health found X, Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube and Snapchat made $11 billion in advertising from US users under 18 in 2022.

Neolithic Stone Circles Discovered in England Could Solve the Stonehenge Mystery: Report

Neolithic Stone Circles Discovered in England Could Solve the Stonehenge Mystery: Report


Two newly discovered Neolithic stone circles have reportedly been identified in Dartmoor, England, possibly forming part of a 5-mile-long “sacred arc” of ancient monuments. Independent archaeologist Alan Endacott, who made the discovery, told a publication that these stone structures reflect the cultural significance of the uplands during the New Stone Age. The finds, dated to roughly 5,000 years ago, are thought to be contemporary with Stonehenge and indicate extensive construction activity in the region during that period.

The ‘Irishman’s Wall’ Site

Endacott, pursuing a doctorate in archaeology at the University of Exeter, has been surveying Dartmoor’s moorland for decades, as per a Live Science report. Using magnetic gradiometry and resistivity tools, he reportedly confirmed the locations earlier this year. Excavations took place between September and October, revealing key details about the circles’ construction.

One of the sites, named “Metheral,” comprises about 20 stones, many of which are now overgrown or toppled. This circle is estimated to measure 40 metres by 33 metres and mirrors the dimensions and design elements seen at Stonehenge.

Approximately one mile from Metheral lies the second circle, dubbed “Irishman’s Wall.” This site is reportedly less intact, with only six visible stones. Subsurface analysis helped identify the structure’s outline. Endacott told the publication that this circle may have marked an entrance to what prehistoric people regarded as a sacred area.

A Larger Archaeological Landscape

The Metheral circle is positioned at the northernmost point of a crescent of eight known stone circles, which stretch southward over five miles. Endacott’s earlier discoveries, such as the Sittaford Tor circle, support the hypothesis that this arc was part of a larger ceremonial complex. Independent archaeologist Tom Greeves described the findings as significant, noting the evidence of Neolithic activity on Dartmoor, in an interview with Live Science. Susan Greaney from the University of Exeter reportedly added that these discoveries underscore the area’s importance in prehistoric culture and point to the possibility of further findings.

Dartmoor remains an area rich in Neolithic heritage, with its open uplands and extensive archaeological sites continuing to reveal insights into ancient practices.

Malaika Arora Shares Cryptic Post About Relationship Status Amid Life Updates


Mumbai: Dancing diva and actress Malaika Arora has finally revealed her current relationship status with a hilarious cryptic post on social media. 

Malaika took to Instagram stories, where she shared a meme which read: “My relationship status right now”.

It had the options of: “In a relationship, single and hehehe” written on it. However, it was the third option marked “hehehe”.


The post comes after Malaika and her former beau Arjun Kapoor chose to go separate ways. The two started dating in 2018. However, had never openly spoken about their relationship.

However, the couple used to share romantic pictures from their getaways and birthday wishes.

The actress had earlier shared a post about happiness, which read: “A secret to happiness is to be as weird as you like and the wrong people will leave the party but the right ones will join the dance.”

In other news, Malaika Arora last week revealed that she is working on something special, which is going to be an ode to her late father, Anil Kuldeep Mehta, who passed away in September.

Reflecting on her journey, Malaika shared: “We all need to keep moving forward… that’s what my father would have wanted for me. I’m grateful for the time I took to process the loss. It wasn’t easy, but it’s important to give ourselves space to heal.

“Coming back to work helps me stay focused, balance my mental health, and gives me the clarity to take care of my mother and family. I’m thrilled about the brands I’m working with and excited to explore my creative side. I’m also working on something special that I will announce soon—it’s going to be an ode to my father,” she added.

Anil Mehta fell from the 6th floor of his residence in the Ayesha Manor building in the Bandra area of Mumbai at around 9:00 am on Wednesday while the actress was on her way to Pune for an event.


Microsoft’s Salaried Staff Won’t Get Raise This Year, Reveals Leaked CEO Mail: Report

Microsoft’s Salaried Staff Won’t Get Raise This Year, Reveals Leaked CEO Mail: Report


Microsoft will not raise salaries for full-time employees this year and is reducing budget for bonuses and stock awards, Insider reported on Wednesday, citing an internal email by CEO Satya Nadella.

The tech giant did not immediately respond to a Reuters request for comment.

“Last year, we made a significant investment in compensation driven by market conditions and company performance, nearly doubling our global merit budget…this year the economic conditions are very different across many dimensions” the report quoted Nadella saying.

In January, Microsoft said it would let go of 10,000 workers, adding to the tens of thousands layoffs announced before that across the technology sector as it deals with slowing growth in a turbulent economy.

Microsoft has now squarely placed its focus on generative AI, an area the industry sees as a bright spot.

In collaboration with ChatGPT maker OpenAI, which also has received billions of dollars in funding from Microsoft, the tech giant has been infusing the AI tech into its Office products as well as search engine Bing.

Last week, Microsoft expanded public access to its generative artificial intelligence programs, despite fears that tech firms are rushing ahead too quickly with potentially dangerous technology.

In March this year, it was reported that Microsoft-owned GitHub laid off 142 people in India, including the entire staff in its engineering division. Those affected by the decision were deployed across the company’s offices in Bengaluru, Hyderabad, and Delhi. A GitHub spokesperson termed the decision as a part of the company’s reorganisation plan.

Amid divorce rumours, Abhishek Bachchan thanks Aishwarya for being at home

Bollywood actor Abhishek Bachchan, who is garnering rave reviews, courtesy of his latest film ‘I Want To Talk’ mentioned his actor-wife Aishwarya Rai Bachchan for the first time amid their ongoing divorce rumours. In an interview, Abhishek thanked the former Miss World for staying at home with their daughter Aaradhya, while he went out to make movies. 

Abhishek Bachchan thanks Aishwarya for being at home

Aishwarya has only been a part of Mani Ratnam’s ‘Ponniyin Selvan’ and hasn’t been active on the film front. In an interview with The Hindu, Junior Bachchan recalled how his mother Jaya Bachchan also stepped away from acting for the sake of her children. “My mother stopped acting when I was born because she wanted to spend time with the children. We never felt the void of Dad not being around. I think at the end of the day after work, you come home at night,” he said.

Drawing parallels between Jaya and Aishwarya, Abhishek added, “In my household, I’m lucky I get to go out and make movies but I know that Aishwarya is at home with Aaradhya and I thank her immensely for that but I don’t think the kids look at it that way. They don’t look at you as a third person, they look at you as the first person,” he said.

Abhishek Bachchan-Aishwarya Rai divorce rumours

Reports of possible tension in Aishwarya Rai and Abhishek Bachchan`s marriage have been circulating for some time. The couple, who tied the knot in a high-profile wedding in 2007, has been making headlines due to divorce speculations.

Abhishek`s alleged closeness to his ‘Dasvi’ co-star, Nimrat Kaur, along with complex family dynamics involving Shweta and Jaya Bachchan, are said to be contributing factors to the rumoured troubles.

In July, the ‘Taal’ actress attended Anant Ambani’s wedding solo with her daughter Aaradhya, while the Bachchan family was present in full force. This further fuelled speculation about potential issues in her marriage.

Additionally, during a recent episode of ‘Kaun Banega Crorepati’, Amitabh Bachchan talked about the iconic song “Kajra Re,” referencing Abhishek and Rani Mukerji but notably omitting Aishwarya, who also appeared in the music video.

`I Want to Talk` is directed by Shoojit Sircar and stars Abhishek in the lead role. The story explores complex emotional dynamics with Abhishek playing a pivotal character in the film grappling with deep emotional conflict. Shoojit Sircar and Ronnie Lahiri have produced the project under Rising Sun Films. The film released in theatres on November 22.
