Shaun White, the Olympic snowboarding champion, already has an impressive medal tally, but his surprise proposal to Nina Dobrev deserves a gold medal.

On Wednesday, the couple announced their engagement on Instagram. Dobrev posted photographs of the two hugging under an arch of white roses and showing off her five-carat Lorraine Schwartz engagement ring.

“RIP boyfriend, hello fiancé,” Dobrev said in the caption.

However, the photographs only tell half the tale, as Shaun devised an elaborate plan to surprise Dobrev with his proposal.

According to a Vogue interview published Wednesday, Shaun said he assembled a team of people from the couple’s inner circle and Vogue personnel to trick Dobrev into thinking she had been invited to an intimate dinner party with Anna Wintour.

White claimed that his publicist emailed Dobrev a forged invitation to the event, which was scheduled to take place at the Golden Swan in New York City.

Dobrev accepted the invitation, joking that Shaun made it “look so legitimate.”

He even asked Dobrev’s stylist to outfit her in Chanel for the event.

Dobrev said she recognized what was happening when she entered the venue and saw White standing beneath the flowery arch.

“I went into shock,” Dobrev admitted, later adding that White “said all the right things” before she agreed.

According to the publication, after Shaun proposed, the couple partied into the early morning hours with close friends and relatives.

“Best night of my life,” Shaun captioned his Instagram story on Wednesday.

The duo first became romantically involved in 2020, and they have since publicly recorded their relationship, globe vacations, and White’s Olympic farewell on social media.

Hollywood Actress Teri Garr Passes Away at 79

Hollywood Actress Teri Garr Passes Away at 79
Teri Garr, known for her roles in classics like "Young Frankenstein" and "Tootsie," has passed away at 79.

Hollywood actress Teri Garr, known for her roles in classics like “Young Frankenstein” and “Tootsie,” has passed away at 79. She died Tuesday of multiple sclerosis “surrounded by family and friends,” said publicist Heidi Schaeffer.

Admirers took to social media in her honor, with writer-director Paul Feig calling her “truly one of my comedy heroes. I couldn’t have loved her more” and screenwriter Cinco Paul saying: “Never the star, but always shining. She made everything she was in better.”

Throughout her career, the performer, often known as Terri, Terry, or Terry Ann, seemed destined for show business from a young age.

Her father was Eddie Garr, a well-known vaudeville comic, and her mother was Phyllis Lind, one of the original high-kicking Rockettes at New York’s Radio City Music Hall. Their daughter began dancing classes at six and was performing with the San Francisco and Los Angeles ballet companies by age fourteen.

She was 16 years old when she joined the road crew of “West Side Story” in Los Angeles, and she began starring in small roles in films as early as 1963.

In an interview from 1988, she described how she landed the role in “West Side Story.” After being rejected at her initial audition, she returned the following day dressed differently and was accepted.

Teri Garr then found steady work as a movie dancer, appearing in the chorus of nine Elvis Presley films, including “Viva Las Vegas,” “Roustabout,” and “Clambake.”

She has also appeared on various television shows, including “Star Trek,” “Dr. Kildare,” and “Batman,” and was a featured dancer on the rock ‘n’ roll music show “Shindig,” the rock concert performance “T.A.M.I.,” and a cast member of “The Sonny and Cher Comedy Hour.”

Her breakthrough role was as Gene Hackman’s girlfriend in Francis Ford Coppola’s 1974 thriller The Conversation. This led to an interview with Mel Brooks, who offered her the Gene Wilder’s German lab assistant role in Young Frankenstein if she could speak with a German accent.

“Cher had this German woman, Renata, making wigs, so I got the accent from her,” Garr once said.

The film established her as a great comic performer, with New Yorker film writer Pauline Kael calling her “the funniest neurotic dizzy dame on screen.”

Her big smile and off-center appeal helped her land roles in “Oh, God!” with George Burns and John Denver, “Mr. Mom” (as Michael Keaton’s wife), and “Tootsie,” in which she played the girlfriend who loses Dustin Hoffman to Jessica Lange and discovers he has dressed up as a woman to revive his career.

 A gift for spontaneous humor

Teri Garr, best known for comedy, has shown in films such as Close Encounters of the Third Kind, The Black Stallion, and The Escape Artist that she can also tackle drama.

She had a gift for spontaneous humor, frequently playing David Letterman’s foil during early guest appearances on N.B.C.’s “Late Night With David Letterman”.

Her appearances grew so frequent, and the pair’s good-natured bickering so convincing that rumors of romantic involvement circulated for a while. Years later, Letterman acknowledged those early appearances with helping the program become a success.

During those years, Garr began to experience “a little beeping or ticking” in her right leg. It started in 1983 and expanded to her right arm, but she thought she could handle it. By 1999, her symptoms had gotten so bad that she saw a doctor and was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis.

After disclosing her diagnosis, Garr became a spokesman for the National Multiple Sclerosis Society, giving hilarious remarks at events in the United States and Canada.

jon stewart

NEW YORK — Jon Stewart isn’t done mocking the news; he’s signed on to continue anchoring “The Daily Show” on Mondays until the end of next year.

Paramount confirmed on Monday that Stewart would continue to host the Comedy Central series once a week, as he has done for much of 2024 in the run-up to the presidential election.

Jon Stewart Will Remain ‘Daily Show’ Host On Mondays Through 2025

From 1999 until 2015, the Emmy-winning host of “The Daily Show” delivered cutting, satirical comments on politics and current events, as well as interviews with journalists. In his second attempt, he has retained his scathing view of American politics and the presidential race, which was upended in July when President Joe Biden declared he would not seek reelection and nominated Vice President Kamala Harris as the Democratic nominee.

“His ability to cut through the noise and deliver clear-eyed insights is exactly what we need, which is why we are thrilled to have him leading The Daily Show for another year,” Paramount Global co-CEO Chris McCarthy stated.

Judge Upholds Dismissal Of Involuntary Manslaughter Charge Against Alec Baldwin In On-Set Shooting

Published

Actor Alec Baldwin

Santa Fe, New Mexico – A New Mexico judge affirmed her decision to dismiss Alec Baldwin’s involuntary manslaughter allegation in the fatal shooting of a cameraman on the set of a Western film.

In a ruling issued Thursday, state District Court Judge Mary Marlowe Sommer upheld her July decision to dismiss an involuntary manslaughter allegation against Baldwin. She claimed that prosecutors did not present any factual or legal arguments to support altering the decision.

“Because the state’s amended motion raises arguments previously made and arguments that the state chose not to raise earlier, the court does not find the amended motion well taken,” the judge stated, adding that the request was also late.

A representative for Baldwin’s lawyers stated on Friday that they had no immediate reaction to the ruling.

Special prosecutor Kari Morrissey told The Associated Press that she disagrees with the court’s analysis and intends to appeal the decision. The Santa Fe district attorney appointed Morrissey to take up the case in March 2023, after a previous special prosecutor resigned due to errors in filing first charges.

The case was dismissed halfway through the trial due to allegations that police and prosecutors suppressed information from the defense in the 2021 death of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins on the set of the film “Rust.”

Baldwin’s trial was disrupted by discoveries that ammunition was brought into the Santa Fe County sheriff’s office in March by a guy who claimed it was related to Hutchins’ death. Prosecutors maintained the ammunition was unconnected and inconsequential, but Baldwin’s lawyers claim detectives “buried” the evidence in a different case file and successfully moved to dismiss.

Baldwin, the primary actor and co-producer for “Rust,” was pointing a gun at Hutchins during a rehearsal on a film set outside Santa Fe in October 2021 when the revolver fired, killing Hutchins and injuring director Joel Souza. Baldwin claims he pulled back the hammer but not the trigger, and the handgun fired.

In April, a judge sentenced Hannah Gutierrez-Reed, the movie weapons supervisor, to a maximum of 1.5 years in a state prison for involuntary manslaughter in Hutchins’ death.

Last month, Marlowe Sommer denied Gutierrez-Reed’s plea to overturn her conviction or a new trial based on concerns that prosecutors failed to communicate potentially exculpatory evidence. She determined that the armorer’s attorneys failed to prove that there was a reasonable likelihood that the trial decision would have been different if Gutierrez-Reed had access to the evidence, which is now pending in a higher court appeal.
