The former TV anchor, 54, stepped out onto the red carpet without her fiance on her arm, choosing instead to make a solo appearance at the glittering gala, where she put on an incredible display in a custom-made Oscar de la Renta gown. But while the dress itself was indeed eye-catching, what was more jaw-dropping was the enormous new diamond that Lauren was wearing on her wedding finger, a huge pear-shaped design that eclipsed even the giant rock Bezos had proposed with back in 2023. It's unclear whether Lauren had simply borrowed the staggering jewel for the event - or whether her fiance splashed out on an upgraded design - but she chose to let it shine, going largely without any other accessories.

The word of caution was provided by private equity fund manager Grant Cardone Sunday, as the Dow wrapped its third positive day in a row. Prior to that growth continuing Monday, the 66-year-old real estate investor said the state of the US stock market is a cause for concern. As proof, the 20-year vet pointed to the history of the also rising S&P's yield curve, which has been inverted for over 500 days. This has only happened three times in the past century, he said - citing crises in 1929, 1974, and 2009 that came after the invert.

U.S. News and World Report released its list of the top 10 'Best States' for 2024 - but the results may infuriate readers. The results were based on the average of three years of data from recent national surveys that asked nearly 70,000 people total to prioritize subjects such as public safety, crime and more in their home state. Some categories were assigned more value than others. Health care and education were weighted most heavily, followed by state economies, infrastructure, and opportunity.

The Met Gala is arguably fashion's biggest night of the year - but several celebrities stepping out on the red carpet this evening at the prestigious event proved that it is also a prime example of when a desperate desire to make a style mark can go horribly wrong.  For while many guests at this year's gala wowed and awed with their fashion looks, several suffered such disastrous style fails that they left the red carpet looking more like a Halloween parade. The dress code for this year's event is The Garden of Time, which pairs with the new exhibition that it is being held to honor: Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion, a somewhat ironic title given that several of the attendees looked much like they had just rolled out of bed and straight onto the red carpet. Stars including Amelia Gray Hamlin (far left), Cara Delevingne (right inset), Jessica Safferty (second right) and J. Harrison Ghee (second left) were hard to miss as they turned one of fashion's biggest nights into a freak show.

Rita Ora's ever-supportive husband Taika Waititi ensured she had her moment in the spotlight as she ditched her underwear for an incredibly revealing look on the Met Gala red carpet on Monday. Leaving for the Metropolitan Museum of Art's Costume Institute, the Body On Me singer, 33, put on a very daring display in a sheer nude bodysuit designed by MARNI. Flaunting her incredibly toned physique, Rita went braless in the revealing garment, arriving at the event with her husband Taika Waititi, who was ever the gentleman as he helped sort her dress train on the red carpet.

Kendall Jenner stunned in a cheeky ensemble at the 2024 Met Gala, held at The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City on Monday.  The model, 28, arrived to fashion's biggest night in a sparkling black and brown floor-length 1999 Givenchy Couture dress. The incredible look, which featured a plunging neckline, had a sheer panel running along the midriff and back, showing off her derrière. 

Hillary Clinton's longtime aide and friend Huma Abedin is a seasoned Met Gala guest - but this year saw her enjoying the event in a whole new light, alongside her latest love interest, billionaire heir Alex Soros. Less than three months after going public with their romance, the couple took their relationship to the next level by attending their first Met Gala as a couple. However, while Alex, 38, shared two snaps of the pair getting ready to head off to the star-studded soiree, he opted to skip the red carpet upon their arrival - instead letting Huma, 47, face the cameras alone.

Doja Cat is known for pushing the envelope as an artist and  Guram Gvasalia has been known for the same thing in the fashion world so it was only natural that the two join forces on fashion's biggest night. The 28-year-old rapper - born Amala Ratna Zandile Dlamini - donned a towel as she boldly sported  just-got-out-the-shower couture at the star-studded Met Gala in New York City on Monday. She was joined on the red carpet with the creative director of Vetements and brother of Balenciaga creative director Demna Gvasalia who is known for disrupting the fashion world and this latest look was no exception.

Lauren Sanchez made her Met Gala debut as she rubbed shoulders with fashion A-listers while joined by her Amazon billionaire fiance Jeff Bezos - who skipped the red carpet - as they led the stars partying the night away. The 54-year-old former Good Day LA co-host - who was invited by Vogue boss Anna Wintour to the event on one condition - looked like she was having the time of her life on fashion's biggest night in New York City. Each year on the first Monday of May, Hollywood's most elite gather at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in the Big Apple for a dazzling ball that has been hailed by some as the biggest night of fashion. At the affair Sanchez was seen hanging out with supermodels Gigi Hadid and Emily Ratajkowski along with actress and Elvis Presley's granddaughter Riley Keough.

Former White House Press Secretary Jen Pskai has no issue with President Joe Biden 's seeming disinterest in doing press conferences , saying he should entertain the ladies of The View instead.

NEW Prince Harry will fly back to Britain over the coming hours as he attends a ceremony in London marking the 10th anniversary of the Invictus Games. The Duke of Sussex is expected to meet his estranged father the King during his trip, which follows a previous quick visit in February after Charles's cancer diagnosis. Tomorrow night Harry is set to give a reading at a service of thanksgiving at St Paul's Cathedral marking a decade since the inaugural Invictus Games in London in 2014. Organisers say there has been no confirmation of any other royals attending, or if Harry's wife Meghan Markle or children Archie and Lilibet will also be in the UK. However it is expected that the Duke will come to London alone before joining the Duchess on a tour to Nigeria , with Meghan set to fly there from the US by herself. And Harry is not anticipated to see his brother Prince William , who is scheduled to be away from the capital on Thursday and Friday, or his sister-in-law Kate Middleton whose cancer treatment continues following her revealing the diagnosis in March.

Pro-Palestinian protestors vandalized a World War I memorial in Central Park, , spray-painting 'Gaza' on the base and burning an American flag on the ground. Video footage showed a few demonstrators chanting 'free Palestine' while defacing the statue, draping it with a Palestinian flag. The act occurred when protesters were unable to reach the Met Gala, prompting them to target the 107th Infantry memorial instead. Despite police efforts to block their access to the Met Museum, around 1000 protesters marched through the streets, resulting in almost 30 arrests near the museum.

'All were well-educated and successful in careers,' Michelle Kosinski recalled of the recent dinner party. 'They seemed great! On the surface. For like an hour ' the onetime NBC News correspondent continued, categorizing the Trump-leaning guests as 'closeted'. 'But slowly, over a few drinks, they began to let slip their true MAGA natures.' The 50-year-old (third from left, with her husband and the Obamas) who served as CNN's White House Correspondent until 2020 went on to add how  she was surprised by the revelation - marveling at how a 'normal' a group of people could support a politician she does not approve of.

Anyone who thinks they have no need to worry about high blood pressure should think again - it can affect people of all ages, and millions are unaware they have it. This is a worry, as the condition is highly treatable, often simply with diet and ­lifestyle changes - but left untreated, the risks are serious. By dietary changes I don't just mean ­cutting back on salt. In research I was involved with at King's College London in 2020, we identified more than 15 nutrients that are related to lower blood pressure. In fact, diet tweaks can be so helpful that if you're on blood pressure drugs it's worth talking to your doctor before making major changes to your diet. Otherwise you could find your blood pressure dropping too low.

Ozempic, the miracle weight loss injection, has taken the world by storm, enabling its users to suppress their appetites and speedily shed the pounds. Little wonder then that any time a celebrity appears looking suddenly - and drastically - thinner, they are instantly assumed to have used Ozempic.

A British soldier's harrowing secret sketchbook has revealed how prisoners were packed onto sweltering ships and forced into hard labour in Japanese prisoner of war camps. Second Lieutenant Arkless Lockey spent three years in notorious camps after being captured during the fall of Singapore in 1942. He secretly filled a sketchpad with 33 detailed drawings that show the appalling conditions the British PoWs endured at the hands of tyrannical prison guards in the hellish Japanese camps. One of the colourful illustrations highlights how the shirtless men were packed in like sardines for weeks on a sweltering prison ship which took them from Singapore to Taiwan. Others show emaciated prisoners doing 13 hour non-stop shifts of hard labour, including picking rocks, dragging logs and working in a paddy field.
