Rina Sawayama seemingly roasts Matty Healy during festival set - again
Rina Sawayama has seemingly called out The 1975 frontman Matty Healy once again, just weeks after a Glastonbury speech that left fans shocked. Sawayama was performing at NOS Alive festival in Lisbon, when she brought up “some people” who get away with being 'racist and sexist'. “It’s just funny how some people get away with not apologising ever… For saying some racist s***. For saying some sexist s***", she raged. “Why don’t you apologise for once in your life without making it about your f****** self?” Click here to sign up for our newsletters

Gen Z and Millennials are finally uniting following comedian's rallying cry
It’s no secret that pesky Gen Zers on social media love mocking their elders – in particular millennials. And for Iliza Shlesinger, a 40-year-old comedian, it’s time for them to stop. The performer is done with the younger generation picking apart millennial humour, skinny jeans and awful slang, and has taken to TikTok to speak her truth. On 13 November, she posted one of her standup performances, where she asked members of her live audience if any were Gen Z. A small cheer went up, and Shlesinger responded that they are not “so bold outside of a TikTok comment section”. She went on to recount some of the things Gen Zers have called millennials in recent years – “cheugy”, for example, which describes what they see as outdated fashion. But instead of going for all-out war, Shlesinger wants the enmity to stop, pointing out that both generations are at the mercy of the housing crisis, and that both lost out more than Gen X and boomers in the pandemic. She said: "You're angry, and I get that. We are angry too, but we have heartburn and our backs hurt, but we are right there with you." She added that the only reason the two generations are at loggerheads on TikTok is that they are the only two that use the app. It is “violence by proximity,” she said. The video went viral, with millions of views and thousands of comments, including many Gen Zers who said they completely understood millennials’ plight. One said: "It's the younger Gen Z that hates on millennials older Gen Z stands proudly with millennials." Another added: "Love you millennials!" Shlesinger summarised it neatly: "Never forget, we forged social media. Never forget that we walked on Instagram so you could run on TikTok." Never a truer word was spoken.

Only 10 per cent of people on Earth can find the hidden objects in these four puzzles
A TikTok test is challenging users on how quickly their brains can work and only 10 per cent of people can complete it. Brain teasers are a fun way to test how agile your mind can be and one test on TikTok is pushing that to the limit by asking users to find the odd object out within just seven seconds. It was shared online by TikToker @cloutatlas who explained it was a test to “see how fast your visual reflexes are” and how quickly your brain can spot “unfamiliar” images in a pattern. They explained, “Only 10 per cent of people on the planet can get all four stages in seven seconds”. Luckily, the answer is provided after seven seconds of viewing time. The first of four images to appear was a 13 x 10 grid of Twitter logos. But, instead of a bird, one of the “logos” was actually a cloud.

These were followed by a grid of WhatsApp logos and finally an arrangement of battery symbols. The video has been viewed over 31 million views and people in the comments revealed how they got on. One person wrote: “All of them. The second one was the hardest for me. The last one was the easiest.” Someone else said: “3/4 didn’t get the second one.” “Didn’t find the 1 and 2 but 3-4 I got quick,” said another. Have your say in our news democracy.
