Millie Bobby Brown says journalists are 'bullying' her

Millie Bobby Brown, the 21-year-old star of *Stranger Things* and *Enola Holmes*, has launched a powerful rebuke against media outlets for what she describes as bullying disguised as journalism. In a three-minute Instagram video, Brown directly called out articles criticizing her appearance during recent promotional appearances for her new film, *The Electric State*, and award show events including the SAG and Brit Awards. The actress, who rose to fame at age nine, highlighted headlines and named journalists who authored pieces dissecting her hair, body, face, and style choices, often insinuating she looks older than her age. Brown's impassioned message condemned this scrutiny, stating, "This isn't journalism, this is bullying." "I grew up in front of the world, and for some reason, people can't seem to grow up with me," she emotionally explained. "They act like I'm supposed to stay frozen in time, like I should still look ...

Rubbish and revelry: Can Mardi Gras go 'green'?

New Orleans' Mardi Gras, a globally renowned festival generating nearly $900 million annually, faces a significant environmental challenge: its massive waste production, estimated at 1,000 tons yearly. Historically, the festival's success was measured by the amount of waste generated, primarily from cheap plastic beads—a practice linked to toxic contamination and sewer system blockages in a city already vulnerable to flooding. A 2020 report highlighted the beads' toxic components, including arsenic, chlorine, and lead, raising serious health concerns in a city situated in "Cancer Alley," a region with high pollution levels. The plastic bead problem is deeply intertwined with the festival's funding. Krewes, the local organizations responsible for parades, rely heavily on the sale of these cheap throws to members, generating significant profit margins. The strict prohibition on corporate advertising further limits alternative funding source...

Carling questions quality of England coaches

Former England captain Will Carling has launched a scathing critique of the current England rugby coaching setup, arguing its inexperience is hindering the team's potential. While England has clawed its way back from an initial Six Nations defeat to Ireland with narrow victories over France and Scotland, Carling contends their style of play remains severely lacking. Speaking on BBC Radio 4's Today programme, Carling questioned the credentials of head coach Steve Borthwick and his team, stating, "You look at the calibre of the England coaching team and you have got to question whether that's the best we can put out there. Some are learning, some are very young and maybe lack the experience at Test level. Maybe that's what we're seeing impact on the players." Borthwick, in his first international head coaching role, assembled a largely inexperienced backroom staff, bringing in Richard Wigglesworth and Kevin Sinfield from Leicester Tigers, ...
