  Few stars in Hollywood have managed to stay as instantly recognizable as Shirley MacLaine. With a career spanning more than seven decades, she remains one of the most decorated and enduring performers in American entertainment. Born on April 24, 1934, in Richmond, Virginia, MacLaine is 91 now and will turn 92 later this month. Her younger brother is Warren Beatty, and she began training in ballet as a very young child, an early discipline that helped shape the confidence and work ethic she later carried into show business. Long before she became a screen legend, she was already moving toward the spotlight. After high school, she headed to New York to pursue performing, a decision that did not shock her family nearly as much as it might have shocked others. She later reflected that her parents were so certain she would be fine that she grew into that certainty herself. That mix of discipline and fearlessness became part of her identity very early on. Her breakthrough came after sh...

  For decades, Michael J. Fox has been the face of resilience, a man who navigated the blinding lights of Hollywood while battling a silent, progressive shadow. Diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease at just 29, he chose to build a family in the eye of the storm. Now, as his four children—Sam, twins Aquinnah and Schuyler, and youngest daughter Esme—step into their own, the world is finally seeing the profound, enduring weight of the news they have carried for years about the reality of their father’s journey. While the public often views Michael J. Fox through the lens of his iconic roles or his tireless advocacy for research, his children have lived the intimate, unvarnished truth of his condition. They have watched the man who defined a generation with his humor and charm face the daily, physical toll of a disease that never rests, yet they have done so with a grace that defines their own character. A Bond Forged in Privacy Unlike the children of many other A-list stars, Sam, Aquinna...

  My daughter secretly spent months saving to buy shoes for a boy in her class. The next day, the school called and told me Emma was involved in something that sounded serious. I rushed over, but when I opened the principal's door and saw who was waiting for me there, my whole body went cold. The call came during my lunch break at work. "Good afternoon," the principal said in a tense voice. "I need you to come to school as quickly as possible." "Is Emma okay?" There was a pause. "She's not hurt," he said. "But something has happened, and she's involved." I had already grabbed my bag by then. My keys were in my hand. "I'm leaving now." "I need you to come to school as quickly as possible." As I rushed through traffic to reach the school, I kept trying to figure out what might have happened. And my thoughts kept circling back to the previous morning, and what Emma had done for her friend, Caleb. I had g...

 I gave birth believing my marriage had survived anything. I was wrong. My husband walked out the day our son was born, and I raised that boy alone through every hard year that followed. Twenty-five years later, one public moment made the man who left us wish he had stayed gone. The day my husband left me, he didn't slam the door. I think that would have been easier. My mother used to say that a slammed door is anger, and anger is alive. "You can fight anger, Bella. You can understand the reason for it." What Warren gave me instead was a glance at our newborn son, one look at the neurologist, and a silence so clean it felt sharpened. "You can fight anger, Bella." Henry was less than three hours old. I still had an IV in my arm. My body felt split open, and my son was tucked against my chest, with one tiny fist twisted in my hospital gown. The neurologist spoke gently, which I later learned is the first sign that your life is about to split into before and after....

  An expert is shedding light on why men are far more likely to develop HPV-related throat cancers. HPV, human papillomavirus, is a common STI, with around 14 out of 200 strains known to cause cancer. According to the CDC, roughly 10 percent of men and 3.6 percent of women are known to carry HPV. Most infections clear up on their own, and health officials say nearly everyone who is sexually active will contract HPV at some point, but there are some cases which are more serious than others. In most cases, the virus disappears within a year or two and doesn’t require treatment. But for some people, it can quietly linger, and that’s where the risk comes in. What is HPV? According to Mayo Clinic, “some types of genital HPV can cause cancer of the lower part of the uterus that connects to the vagina, called the cervix. Other types of cancers have been linked to HPV infection. These include cancers of the anus, penis, vagina, vulva and back of the throat. Cancer at the back of the throat...

  Here at Newsner, we’ve explained ‘graysexual‘, ‘demisexual‘ and ‘almondsexual‘ over the past year or so, bringing our readers up to speed as we find out for ourselves in real time. Call it a sign of the times, perhaps, but it seems like there are new ways, new labels for one to define their experiences of attraction being created constantly. Now, let me make it clear that I don’t have anything specifically against this. I’m not some grumpy curmudgeon resisting change and vehemently complaining because things aren’t exactly the way they used to be. That said, it can all get a bit confusing. It seems like there are so many ways for people to identify, such a large spectrum of words with which to describe one’s sexuality and preferences when it comes to attraction, that it’s impossible to keep track. Which is why we’re doing our best to keep people informed and updated. In that vein, we thought it only right to shed some light on the concept of being “berrisexual”. As per reports, p...

  Aging is something we all will go through. Meanwhile, some, especially in Hollywood, decide to use Botox, facelifts, or plastic surgery to stop it from happening too rapidly. This 91-year-old actress did exactly so, but some might not recognize her. Her career spans more than 60 years – and is still turning heads today. She became a superstar, nominated for several Academy Awards, and even won. While she is 91 today, this legendary actress has no plans to slow down. Born on April 24, 1934, in Richmond, Virginia, she grew up with a mother who was a drama teacher. Her younger brother would become a successful director and actor, and at the age of three, she began her studies towards a career in show business. The now-legendary actress became a great ballet dancer and, after high school, moved to New York City to pursue a career in acting. Moving to the Big Apple at that age might alarm many parents. But for her, it wasn’t. “They weren’t surprised. I was in show business since I was...
