Ryan Gosling fans are obsessed with him saying 'kenough'
Ryan Gosling is proving to be a hit with film fans on the Barbie movie press tour as he continues to channel his character Ken - or "Kenergy," as he's previously remarked. The 42-year-old's casting as Ken for the live-action movie once raised eyebrows but Gosling has proved the doubters wrong, with viewers praising the brief clips they've seen of his performance in the trailer. Now the Barbie press tour is in Canada, Gosling's home turf which the marketing campaign paid tribute to with promotional posters of Gosling, with the tagline "#Kenada," after all, Gosling loves to combine “Ken” into as many words as he can. Sign up to our free Indy100 weekly newsletter And he's at it once again. This time at a press event joined by his sister Mandi, Gosling was asked by a reporter how the rest of us can find our "Kenergy," and he didn't disappoint with his response. “It’s there the whole time,” Gosling said, and couldn't resist another Ken-based word combo, “You’ve got it so strong, I can feel it right now. Look no further; you are Kenough." “It’s like Wi-fi, it's there but you don’t know how it’s really there. I don’t," and then hilariously asked the reporter if he could "explain Wi-fi." To which the reporter said he could and then went on to say that Kenergy "is all around you." "Right. And it might be affecting the bees, somehow? I’m not sure," Gosling quipped. The brief clip has since gone viral on social media, as fans praised Gosling for his commitment to his character.

At least it will be "sane". Was worried there for a moment." A fan responded to Musk saying "Better be careful @elonmusk I heard he does jiu jitsu now" followed by laughing emojis. "I'm up for a cage match if he is lol," replied Musk. Zuckerberg then posted a screenshot of Musk's tweet to his Instagram story saying "send me location".

Dylan Mulvaney claims she was shunned by Bud Light following transphobic backlash
Influencer Dylan Mulvaney shared that Bud Light never reached out to her after facing transphobia from her ad with them. In a TikTok uploaded on Thursday, Mulvaney, a transgender woman who has used her platform to document her transition, spoke about her experience after doing an ad for Bud Light. Mulvaney had posted an Instagram video of her drinking Bud Light back in April. The ad led to an onslaught of transphobia and threats directed towards the 26-year-old as well as some conservatives and anti-trans campaigners boycotting Bud Light. Some even went so far as to destroy Bud Light products in stores. The TikTok, which currently has over 1.5 million likes and over 8 million views, started with Mulvaney drinking beer saying "one thing I will not tolerate people saying about me is that I don't like beer," she smiles. "Because I love beer and I always have." She goes on to talk about the brand partnership with Bud Light saying: "I'm bringing it up because what transpired from that video was more bullying and transphobia than I could have ever imagined." Sign up to our free Indy100 weekly newsletter "I was scared, I was scared of more backlash and I felt personally guilty for what transpired so I patiently waited for things to get better. But surprise, they haven't really," explaining why she was speaking about it now. "And I was waiting for the brand to reach out to me but they never did. And for months now, I've been scared to leave my house. I have been ridiculed in public. I've been followed. And I have felt a loneliness I wouldn't wish on anyone." @dylanmulvaney Trans people like beer too. ?️⚧️? The revelation that Bud Light had not reached out to Mulvaney after she faced bullying and harassment from their customers left many viewers shocked and appalled: "For a company to hire a trans person and then not publicly stand by them is worse, in my opinion, than not hiring a trans person at all," Mulvaney told viewers. "Because it gives customers permission to be as transphobic and hateful as they want. And the hate doesn't end with me, it has serious and grave consequences for the rest of our community and you know we're customers too, I know a lot of trans and queer people who love beer and I have some lesbian friends who could drink some of those haters under the table." "And all this is to say bottom line is that if you follow me, if I've made you smile, if you care about me, I need you to care about every trans person and I need you to support us and I need you to stand by us." At the end of her video, she added: "It's still Pride month, I'm gonna celebrate being alive and I'm gonna celebrate the trans people in my life and the ones I haven't met yet. And I'm going to celebrate the fact that no matter how many thousands of horrible messages or news anchors misgendering me or companies going silent that I can look in the mirror and see the woman that I am and that I love being." Mulvaney's video comes after Bud Light's parent company Anheuser-Busch's CEO Brendan Whitworth gave an exclusive interview to CBS Mornings on Wednesday. During the interview' he acknowledged it had been a "tough few weeks" for the company. "The conversation has become divisive," he said. "Bud Light has supported LGBTQ [people] since 1998, so that's 25 years, and as we've said from the beginning we'll continue to support the communities and organisations that we have supported for decades."

Roseanne Barr slammed for 'sarcastic' comment about the Holocaust
Roseanne Barr is facing major criticism after making a 'sarcastic' comment on a podcast relating to the Holocaust - but no one is seeing the funny side. Despite Barr being Jewish herself, listeners of the This Past Weekend podcast found the remarks in relation to political propaganda distasteful. "The truth is that Biden got 81 million votes by winning 36 counties. And that is just incredible. It really, really is", she began. Barr then continued: “And that is the truth. And nobody died in the Holocaust, either. That’s the truth. It should happen. Six million Jews should die right now ’cause they cause all the problems in the world. But it never happened."
