Taylor Lautner, Wife Tay Dance And Flaunt Friendship Bracelets At Taylor Swift’s London Eras Tour Show; SEE Here

Taylor Swift is back to December London’s Wembley Stadium for the final round of her European leg of the Eras Tour! On Monday, August 19, Taylor Lautner and his wife, Taylor Dome Lautner, attended the concert and shared several clips from the evening featuring friendship bracelets, them dancing in the VIP section, and more. Lautner, who once dated the Maroon singer and inspired one of her hit records Back to December, became close friends in the last few years. 

The Twilight actor and Dome posted snaps of their friendship bracelets on Instagram stories. Later, Lautner shared a video of his wife and a friend jamming and dancing to the pop star’s 2008 hit You Belong with Me.

In another clip, Dome was seen dancing to the 2012 song I Knew You Were Trouble alongside music video producer Johnny Rays. At one point, Rays and songwriter Aodhan King were distributing chicken tenders to the crowd, which Lautner captured and shared in his story. 

Dome managed to capture only one decent picture of herself, which also involved the chicken tenders. She posted her picture on Instagram and wrote, “Only photo I got tonight was me and my chicken nugget,” over the image she posed holding a chicken nugget while wearing heart-shaped sunglasses on her head. “Very on brand,” she jokingly added. 

In July 2023, during the Daylight singer’s Eras Tour concert in Kansas City, Missouri, she surprised fans by bringing Lautner on stage alongside Joey King and Presley Cash for the unveiling of Swift’s Speak Now (Taylor’s Version) track I Can See You, which featured the trio. 

The audience was taken aback when the Twilight actor entered the stage cartwheeling and backflipping, which the OG fans recognized as a nod to his scene with Swift in the 2010 movie Valentine’s Day. 

During an interview with People in November, Lautner revealed that his wife was a “diehard Swiftie.” When asked about his history with the Fortnight singer, the actor confessed that he takes pride in being the singer’s “best ex.”

“She let me know that I’m the only ex without a diss track now. So that sounds like a nice thing. I’ll take it and run. No complaints here,” he added.

Star Wars Series The Acolyte Has Been Canceled Ahead Of Season 2

The Acolyte, hailed by Star Wars, has been canceled at Disney+ after a hit first season. The show premiered on the streamer on June 4 and was well-received by the audience. However, the sci-fi series received an average rating from the critics. According to reports from Deadline, the creator of the series, Lesley Headland, had a word with the producers on the future of The Acolyte and called it a wrap on Disney+.

As per various media outlets, the show could not maintain its consistency of staying on top. The first week after the release of season 1, The Acolyte managed to gain nearly 4.7 million views and grab the first position in the ratings. After five days, the total view count reached 11.1 million, with the series trending in the top 10. 

Despite picking up the pace in its initial week, the show saw a major drop in its viewership as well as the ratings. Meanwhile, the story of The Acolyte was set 100 years before Star Wars took place.

Amandla Stenberg took up the lead role in the show, portraying the characters of twins, Osha and Mae. As per the storyline, the twins got separated in their childhood, and both had different upbringings. While Osha trains under a Jedi master to become a Padawan, Mae is a supporter of the dark side.

As per the synopsis of the show, “A former Padawan reunites with her Jedi Master to investigate a series of crimes but discovers the forces they confront are more sinister than they ever anticipated.” 

Apart from Stenberg, the series also stars Lee Jung-jae, Charlie Barnett, Dafne Keen, Rebecca Henderson, Jodie Turner-Smith, Carrie-Anne Moss, Manny Jacinto, Dean-Charles Chapman and Joonas Suotamo.

In her interviews with the media portal, Headland revealed that she had a couple of ideas to be pitched for the second season of the series. 

Meanwhile, the banner, Lucasfilms, under which the show had been running, released their first successful project on Disney+, titled The Mandalorian. Continuing from the web series, The Mandalorian & Grogu will soon be a feature film. The second season of Ahsoka, the show that ran before The Acolyte, has been renewed by the company. 

The Acolyte is not the first hit show to be cancelled after releasing a bunch of episodes. Last week, Prime Video’s historical drama, My Lady Jane, was cancelled at the streamer ahead of season 2. Looking at the pattern, the experts have claimed that the streaming models need a change. 

The first season of The Acolyte is available to stream on Disney+.

Parents Made To Wait 11 Hours In Police Station Before FIR In Thane Horror

Parents Made To Wait 11 Hours In Police Station Before FIR In Thane Horror

The parents of a nursery student who was sexually assaulted in a Thane school have said they got to know about the horrific crime after the parents of another nursery student, who was also sexually assaulted, told them they would file a police case.

The parents then took their child for a medical test, which confirmed sexual assault, they said in the first information report (FIR) filed with the police in Maharashtra’s Thane district’s Badlapur city.

What’s more shocking, the parents said, was the police’s long delay in filing the FIR – while the sexual assault happened on August 13, the police filed the case only on August 16.

The parents were allegedly also made to wait for 11 hours before they were allowed to file the FIR, according to the complaint filed by them.

“Atrocities are committed on a three-and-half years old girl, a four-year-old girl, and at the police station, they (parents) are made to wait for 11 hours when they seek to file a complaint… Is there any sensitivity left? I spoke to the police commissioner and told him that the woman police officer responsible for this delay must be suspended immediately,” Leader of Opposition in the Maharashtra assembly Vijay Wadettiwar alleged.

The two four-year-old girls told their parents that a “dada” – referring to an unknown man – in the school sexually assaulted them.

A huge protest broke out in Thane over the sexual assault of the two four-year-old girls. Thousands of protesters had flocked to the local train station in Badlapur in the morning and blocked the movement of trains.

Six hours on, the crowds grew, leading to concerns about train movement and law and order. The government’s efforts to defuse the tension was answered by chants of ‘hang, hang” from the crowd, who demanded death penalty for the 23-year-old school cleaner allegedly involved in the sexual assault on the two nursery students.

Lawyer Ujjwal Nikam, a Padma Shri awardee, who has worked on high-profile murder and terrorism cases including the 26/11 Mumbai terror attacks, has been appointed as the special public prosecutor in the case.
