Streamer dies after drinking 'Chinese firewater'
A 27-year-old internet star has died after drinking 'Chinese firewater' on a live stream. Zhong Yuan Huang Ge was allegedly seen chugging a bottle of the local spirit known as baijiu, which alcohol content ranges between 35 to 60 per cent. Huang's Douyin account – the Chinese version of TikTok – has reportedly since been deleted. His wife confirmed the devastating news, according to The Straits Times, explaining that he had been "desperately" trying to make money to pay off debt. She said he had "to repay hundreds of thousands of yuan in debt that he owed before his marriage". Huang's death marks the second in a month as a result of drinking challenges, after a fellow influencer experienced a similar fate. Sign up for our free Indy100 weekly newsletter The man, identified as Wang Moufeng, was found dead on 17 May after reportedly drinking four bottles of the alcohol for his fans. "When his family found him, he was already gone," a friend identified as Zhao informed Shangyou News. "He didn’t even get a chance for emergency treatment." In a bizarre turn of events, the pair were actually friends with Huang attending Moufeng's funeral weeks prior to his own death. "I don’t know how much he had consumed before I tuned in. But in the latter part of the video, I saw him finish three bottles before starting on a fourth," Zhao told The Straits Times. He added: "The PK games ended at around 1 a.m. and by 1 p.m., (when his family found him) he was gone." Have your say in our news democracy.

Anyone with an interest in history should be quite familiar with the Ken Burns playbook, which he puts to characteristically impressive use in "American Buffalo," a documentary weaving together the near-extinction of these majestic beasts, dispossession of Native-Americans and exploitation of the American West under one sweeping umbrella filled with heartbreak but also hope.

Kim Kardashian being named as 'man of the year' branded 'ridiculous' by confused fans
Kim Kardashian is GQ's 'Man of the Year' cover star for 2023, but some fans have been left confused over the decision. Each year the magazine selected individuals to receive awards at its highly anticipated awards night. This year Priscilla actor Jacob Elordi and fashion designer Tom Ford are part of those being honoured. Another honouree is Kim Kardashian, and fans are divided after the announcement. In her cover photo, the Skims founder is wearing an 80s-esque suit whilst eating a bag of Cheetos. Many seemingly have an issue with Kim being the cover star for the 2023 Men of the Year issue. "Kim Kardashian is your Man of the Year??? Be serious for a damn second", wrote one user on Twitter/X. "When you didn't understand the assignment", wrote another. "I'm sorry but did you just say 'man' ????? That is a [woman]." A third added: Some appeared to be quite angry over the decision. With one user arguing to was a "dunking on men" and that they will "never purchase Skims." However, many loved the photoshoot and spoke about how Kim's launch of Skims Men and the brand's partnership with the NBA were "the biggest disruptors of the mens garment industry this year." And is likely the main reason behind her gracing the cover of GQ. "Everyday I find a new reason why Kim Kardashian is really that girl... this woman does everything", wrote another fan. It seems like the Kardashians are getting bigger every year, who knows what award Kim will win next. Sign up to our free Indy100 weekly newsletter Have your say in our news democracy.
