USA Update

British film director Asif Kapadia was, for a decade, on a “watch list” that saw him stopped and interviewed every time he tried to enter the US. The Oscar-winning director of the documentary Amy told this weekend’s Guardian newspaper his experience began after he travelled back from New York in the early 2000s, and a […]

Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., on Sunday described President-elect Donald Trump’s threat to jail members of the House Jan. 6th Committee as “an outrageous statement” and said that President Joe Biden should consider preemptive pardons for committee members. “This is what authoritarianism is all about. It’s what dictatorship is all about,” Sanders added. Asked whether Biden […]

When I was 16 years old, I was convinced that the most boring place on Earth was Salem, Oregon. As a grunge-punk teen growing up in the 90s, I thought Salem was everything that Seattle and Portland were not. It wasn’t cool, edgy or exciting. It was a city of bureaucrats, where you could find […]

Israel’s military said it carried out strikes and raids in northern Gaza on Sunday after days of deadly bombardments across the territory. The military said in a statement that it had targeted a “terrorist meeting point” in the northern town of Beit Hanoun, among other actions. Wafa, the Palestinian Authority’s news agency, reported that Israeli […]

Few things are better than settling down with a good book, but sometimes the settling is easier said than done. Between a long commute, making dinner, or just getting some fresh air outside, there are some times that a traditional book (or even an e-reader) just won’t cut it. For all those times, there’s no […]

This Christmas was the first restrictionless Christmas since the beginning of the pandemic and I, like many parents I’m guessing, tried to make it extra special. And I know for a fact I won’t be putting quite as much of an effort next year. These days, and this year especially, it felt like there was […]

It wouldn’t be the Christmas season unless we tuned into some of our favourite classic family movies and Mrs Doubtfire is one of the best. With classic one-liners, Mrs. Euphegenia Doubtfire was a hip granny who could hip-hop, be-bop dance till you drop and yo-yo made a wicked cup of cocoa. Underneath it all, it […]

FANS were transfixed by a lip-smacking thriller – then wondered if Carlo Ancelotti had lip-swelling filler.

Viewers were open-mouthed in astonishment at the Real Madrid boss’s bottom lip in a press conference following a 3-3 draw at Rayo Vallecano.

Many fans reckon the legendary ex-Chelsea chief must have had botox treatment or an operation

One posted: “What’s wrong with your lip? Have you had surgery?”

Another said: “I’ve been giggling about Ancelotti‘s lip filler since I woke up”  

A third wrote: “Can someone explain to me what Ancelotti has done to his lips?”

The unexpected debate about Ancelotti’s facial features came after Jude Bellingham netted for a sixth LaLiga match in a row.

The last player to do that was Real icon Karim Benzema eight years ago.

But the draw means Ancelotti’s men remain a point behind neighbours Atletico Madrid and leaders Barcelona.

So one frustrated fan asked: “Why did Ancelotti get lip filler. This is not a serious club.”

Spanish outlet mundodeportivo say his large lips were due to an allergy.

But it didn’t save the former Bayern Munich and Everton boss from less than generous jibes.

Plenty of fans on social media made up their own mind over the cause of the apparent swelling.

One wrote: “Ancelotti has punctured his lips or is it just me.”

Another said: “Ancelotti has been more concerned about his lips than about today’s game.”

That was particularly unkind as Real recovered from trailing 2-0 to lead 3-2 through Federico Valverde, Bellingham and Rodrygo.

But Isi Palazon rescued a valuable point for second-bottom Vallecano.

So for Ancelotti it wasn’t a case of all’s swell that ends swell.
