The Kevin James smirking meme explained
Kevin James is the latest celebrity to become a meme recently, with one particular snap of the actor providing the perfect template. With his hands casually in his pockets, and wearing a sheepish smirk - not forgetting the smizing, the snap is from a promotional shoot from his ’90s sitcom The King Of Queens. In the comedy, James played deliveryman Doug Heffernan, and the show lasted for nine seasons from 1998-2007 this particular photo was taken by Tony Esparza for CBS Photo Archive/Getty Images. The image first became a meme template when a Twitter/X user posted the photo with the caption: "me after 1 double rum and diet," on September 22 which went viral with over 24,000 tweets, according to Know Your Meme. Since then an influx of similar memes have made their way online, with many also going viral - here are some of the best memes. The revival of the photo hasn't gone unnoticed by James himself who took to Instagram where he posted a mock-up poster for his comedy tour using the "Doublehands in the pocket" photo. As the tagline he added: "Sheepishly coming to a city near you." "Gearing up for my new Stand Up Tour… so happy I found this headshot…," the actor added in the caption. Safe to say, that fans are loving the fact that he's embracing the meme. One person said: "YOURE AN INTERNET SENSATION, AGAIN." "Meme of the year," another person wrote. Someone else added: "Yesssssss you seen it !!!!!" Elsewhere, here are 7 memes that stood the test of time. Sign up to our free Indy100 weekly newsletter Have your say in our news democracy.

Festival founder hopes to help tackle women’s health taboos
Pelvic floor problems and periods will feature as topics for discussion alongside live music, food and drinks at a festival with a difference this summer. Surgeon Julie Cornish, founder of the Everywoman Festival due to take place in Cardiff next month, said she believes it is the first event of its nature to take place in the UK covering such a wide range of women’s health topics. The mother of three, who specialises in pelvic problems after childbirth, said she hoped to create a relaxed and informal setting where typically taboo subjects can be tackled. She said: “The concept of it is as much about prevention and education, as it is about signposting to women with problems. “I’m not aiming this just at women who’ve got problems, I want 16-year-olds to come along to find out about period sustainability products, what is normal for periods and how to know when you’ve got endometriosis. “I want people to understand what is normal and not normal about aspects of women’s health, particularly pelvic health. And I’d like them to be more comfortable talking about their bodies and the symptoms they might get.” Cornish said she is “all too aware of the barriers people face when trying to start conversations about their health” as she warned that if people do not feel able to speak about their health, they may not be able to access the help they need. The event on June 24 at Insole Court in the city will feature a range of expert speakers and more than 48 interactive workshops including pilates, physio sessions and chair yoga, as well as live music, performance art sessions, food and drinks. Welsh health minister Eluned Morgan is set to take part in a discussion on the day on gender health inequality, while some of the other sessions will focus on sexual wellbeing and childbirth injury. For too long, there have been deep-seated and entrenched inequalities in women’s healthcare Welsh health minister Eluned Morgan Morgan said: “For too long, there have been deep-seated and entrenched inequalities in women’s healthcare – from how women’s experiences are viewed to how symptoms are acted upon; health issues and conditions affecting women have been considered ‘taboo’ subjects, limiting awareness and understanding, resulting in women often suffering in silence. “I am committed to improving women’s experiences and health outcomes. “I’ve tasked NHS Wales with designing and delivering a 10-year women’s health plan, which will address inequities in provision and barriers to access and improving the provision of good-quality health services for women throughout their lives. “But if we are to truly deliver lasting change for all women in Wales, we need to look beyond the boundaries of healthcare and normalise conversations about women’s experiences, taking co-ordinated action to remove gender barriers and inequalities. “I am delighted to be speaking at the Everywoman Festival and I look forward to hearing the experiences of all those attending.” Read More Charity boss speaks out over ‘traumatic’ encounter with royal aide Ukraine war’s heaviest fight rages in east - follow live Get to know Foday Dumbuya, winner of the Queen Elizabeth II Award for British Design 7 beauty changes to make as the weather gets warmer Paparazzo says Harry and Meghan car chase was ‘catastrophic experience’

Nasa baffled by eerie new footage of 'UFO' flying over desert in Middle East
Nasa have released eerie footage of a mysterious orb flying over a Middle Eastern desert - and they're yet to work out what it is. Dr Sean Kirkpatrick, the director of the Pentagon's All-Domain Anomaly Resolution Office, who were commissioned by the space agency, shared the findings of their 2022 project yesterday (31 May), including the UFO. "This is a typical example of a thing we see most of", he began, before revealing the object had 'no enigmatic technical capabilities'. "Being able to come to some conclusion is going to take time until we can get better resolved data on similar objects", he added. Click here to sign up for our newsletters
