    Rapper Dan Sur from Mexico is a 23 year old musician who is the first ever rapper in human history” to rock an assortment of gold chains as “hair” — hanging from hooks he had surgically implanted into his scalp.
    According to Caracol TV, the rapper underwent surgery in April for his look. IHowever, the cost of surgery for the bizarre goldilocks appearance is unknown. However, the rapper’s look went viral after the release of his new song ‘Oro’, surrounded by gold bars and gold lizards.
    In the video, he is spotted with money bills raining, his teeth are also seen encased in yellow metal as well.
    Watch his music video here:

    He said in a video as translated by NME, “The truth is that I wanted to do something different because I see that everyone dyes their hair. I hope not everyone copies me now.”
    According to plastic surgeon Dr Frank Agullo, “They introduce an easy path for bacteria between the outside world and the internal body. In this case, the bone covering the brain. In addition, I am concerned about the amount of weight these hooks are supporting,” the health expert said. “The weight or any accidental tug on a band of gold could cause the implant to dislodge and even fracture the skull.”
    Here’s what people on the internet have to say about this-

    Indian cricket team head coach Ravi Shastri has been receiving a lot of criticism for attending the book launch event before the fourth Test at The Oval. The event came under scrutiny ever since the fifth and the final Test match of the series was called off due to COVID-19 outbreak in the Indian camp.
    The Ravi Shastri book launch is going to get a fair bit of scrutiny I think. On the one hand, idiotic for players & staff to mingle w public w/o any precautions. But on the other, there wasn't a strict biosecure environment. No rules strictly broken. #ENGvIND
    — Isabelle Westbury (@izzywestbury) September 10, 2021
    Shastri was the first member from the Indian contingent to test positive for the dreaded virus and it forced the bowling coach Bharat Arun, fielding coach R Sridhar and physio Nitin Patel into isolation during the fourth Test. Later all three of them also returned positive samples.
    After the Manchester Test was cancelled, the English media assumed, among other things, that Shastri got infected at the event where his new book ‘Star Gazing: The Players in My Life’ was released and passed it to the other members inside the Indian camp.

    Despite these claims being based on mere assumptions, it started doing rounds on social media and led to a huge backlash against the former India all-rounder.

    Ravi Shastri-Virat Kohli should be questioned harshly by @BCCI with the book launch in UK when ECB didn't acquire clearance.

    Its clearly a breach. Shastri and other support staff were found COVID +ve later

    Such carelessness on official tour#shastri #kohli #ManchesterTest pic.twitter.com/DOqs0Ahtiq
    — Wickets11 (@Wickets112) September 10, 2021
    For the first time, Shastri has reacted to all these allegations and said he did nothing wrong by attending the event as there was no strict biobubble in place and people were free to move wherever they wanted.
    He further said that since the whole country was open anything could have happened at any point in time and alluded that it was only a coincidence that the Covid cases happened after the book launch event.
    © Reuters
    “The whole country (United Kingdom) is open. Anything could have happened from Test One,” Shastri told Mid-Day

    Rather than dwelling too much on the controversy, Shastri was mighty pleased with India’s overall performance throughout the Test series. He hailed the “unreal show of character” by the Indian players, especially when their backs were against the wall, and described the series as the “best summer of cricket” that England has seen in a long time.
    “It’s been the best summer of cricket England has seen in a long time, certainly from an Indian cricket team. It’s Covid times, awesome summer though. The boys were fantastic on either side of the Thames,” said the 59-year-old head coach.

    “No team played in Covid times like this Indian team did in Australia and England. Just ask the experts here. Nothing has given me more job satisfaction in the game and I have been around for a bit as you would know,” he added.

    There is no logic behind blaming Shastri’s book launch event for the COVID-19 breakout in the Indian camp as nobody can say with full certainty that he contracted the virus there.
    The biggest joke is that the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) didn’t put in place a strict bio-bubble and now the English media is hell bent on making Shastri the villain, blaming him for flouting the rules that never existed.

We have had huge successful ventures like MS Dhoni: The Untold Story and Bhaag Milkha Singh. As they are based on real-life people, the moviemakers have to give them a cut to share their stories.

Later in a report in Quint, it was mentioned that he was paid Rs 45 crores for the biopic but there’s no official statement about the same.
    2: Sanjay Dutt (Sanju)
    Sanjay Dutt has led a controversial life and making a biopic on him proved to be a good decision for Rajkumar Hirani as the movie worked wonders at the box office. Ranbir Kapoor was roped in to play Sanjay Dutt and he did a great job in impersonating Dutt on the big screen. According to a report in India Today, Dutt charged around Rs 9 to 10 crores for his biopic. A source said, “Sanju didn't come for free. Sanjay's team negotiated hard. They finally settled for an outright nine to 10 crore, plus a portion of the box office profit. Only then, producer Vidhu Vinod Chopra and director Rajkumar Hirani were given access to the actor's life.”
    3: MS Dhoni (MS Dhoni: The Untold Story)
    MS Dhoni: The Untold Story is one of the most successful sports biopics that Bollywood has churned out. Directed by Neeraj Pandey, the movie traces the journey of MS Dhoni from his childhood to his ups and downs while he was on his journey of becoming a cricketer to finally playing with the Indian team.

    Badminton star PV Sindhu went on a dinner date with Bollywood’s power couple Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh in Mumbai. As soon as Deepika and Sindhu stepped out of the car, they were swarmed by the paparazzi outside the restaurant and they both obliged by posing for the pictures together.

    Both Deepika and Sindhu were wearing white outfits. While the Bajirao Mastani actor paired a white top with black baggy trousers, the star shuttler stole the show in a white bodycon dress.

    However, when the paparazzi insisted Deepika to pose solo, she turned down their request. Not just that, she politely asked them to take solo pictures of the star shutter who did India proud by winning a medal at the Tokyo Olympics.

    “Mera solo nahi, inka lo (Don't take my solo pictures, take hers),” Deepika was heard telling the photographers. However, upon their insurance she did oblige to their request, before entering the building.
    Moments later, Ranveer was seen entering the same restaurant wearing a white printed shirt paired with a blue distressed denim.

    The couple had planned the dinner outing with the country's premier athlete to celebrate her achievement at the Tokyo Olympics. Sindhu recently did the whole country proud by winning a bronze medal at the Tokyo Olympics and in doing so she became the only Indian female athlete to win two individual Olympic medals.

    Years after actor Nargis Fakhri’s break-up with Uday Chopra, she has finally accepted that they indeed dated for a long time. In a new interview, Nargis said that she was told to keep their relationship hidden from the media and her fans. 

    In a recent interview, Nargis called Uday a beautiful soul and regretted not speaking about him from mountain tops. 
    View this post on Instagram
    She said, “Uday and I dated for 5 years and he was the most beautiful human I met in India. I never have said this to the press as people told me to keep my relationship quiet, but I regret that because I should have shouted from the mountain tops that I was with such a beautiful soul. The internet and social media are very fake and the people out there won't know what the truth is. Most often we idolise certain people who are actually bad behind closed doors.” 
    Reports of the two dating started surfacing around 2014 but the duo kept on denying it every time. She said, “I am repeating myself: Uday and I aren’t dating each other. But he will always remain a part of my life. I have very few friends in India, and I feel fortunate that he’s one of them.”

    Soon after their breakup, Nargis left for New York. Many people suspected that she left the country due to heartbreak but her spokesperson said that it was due to health issues. 
    The spokesperson said, “Nargis has been extremely overworked working on three films simultaneously over the last year. Schedules and intense work hours that film-making demands are not something everyone can cope with. Even though she was advised complete rest, she ensured she completed everything she had committed to Azhar.”
    Nargis Fakhri was dating Justin Santos. However,  now the two have broken up.

    Spotting a red, angry pimple a night before an important event or Bumble date is no fun. It gets us all panicky and nervous and the only thing we can think about is how to get rid of it stat.  
    You’d be lying if you said you have not automatically thought of squeezing the life out of it.  
    © iStock
    As tempting as popping the pimple flat sounds, you should never attempt it and leave it to the experts (dermatologists) to do it, if need be. 

    Why? Because it can do more harm than good if you DIY. Let’s enlighten you.
    © iStock
    Read this before you pop that pimple so you don’t regret it later. Here is what popping a zit does to your skin:

    1. It Can Cause Permanent Scarring © iStock
    When you pop a pimple that isn’t ready to be popped, it causes shock to the skin and leaves the area damaged. It also abrupts the natural healing process and may take much longer to heal the scar.

    2. It Invites More AcneThe pus-filled pimples, when popped, ooze fluid that carries bacteria that smears on the skin surface. It aggravates more acne and worsens the situation. 
    3. Skin InfectionIf not done carefully, you can push the pus further into the skin which can lead to severe infection. Also, the pus from the pimple can also lead to bacterial infection. 
    What To Do Instead © iStock
    Popping isn’t the only solution. There are a number of ways you can get rid of or hide an annoying pimple before a big day. For example, you can try an acne spot treatment like tea tree oil, turmeric, aloe vera gel or crushed aspirin to make it disappear. 

    Other than this, you can treat it with a cold compress which subsides the swelling, pain and redness of the zit and even dry it out to heal faster. Put an ice cube in a cloth and press it gently on the pimple to make it less visible and heal it quicker. 
    When all fails, simply use alternate techniques like makeup. Use a concealer (steal it from your sister or mom if you don’t have it) and dab it on the pimple to camouflage it into the skin. It’s the quickest hack to hide it.

    If this doesn’t convince you and you are still eager to make it disappear from your face, there is a right way to do it so you don’t harm your skin in the process. Make sure you do it with care or leave it be and let it run its course.

    The thing about being in your 20s (or any other age for that matter) and sexually active is that it allows you to experience different kinds of lovers in your lifetime.  

    From stumbling across those who make you scream with ecstasy to those who will make you question your own existence, you are likely to find various kinds of partners in bed.

    via GIPHY
    But, in my experience, and that of several others, the worst ones are those who can never think beyond their own selves when making love. These are the ‘selfish lovers’ who tiptoe under the sheets with a motto that screams “apna kaam banta, bhaad main jaaye janta”.
    And while a lot of things contribute to having such a self-serving attitude in bed, there is a big possibility that one of those many reasons could be cosmic. 
    Here are 4 zodiac signs that are usually selfish in bed:
    1. Aries © iStock
    This zodiac sign loves getting its own way and for that, it often stoops rather low. 

    They are so focused on pleasuring themselves that they even lose sight of whether the other person was satisfied or left hanging. They might not do it out of spite or lack of care, just out of habit!
    2. Sagittarius © iStock
    Sagittarians are usually oscillating between mood swings and perhaps that is the reason why they are also so unpredictable in bed. 

    Add to that their desire to always have things done their way. That includes taking charge of what happens in bed!
    3. Capricorn © iStock
    Capricorns are another name for ‘control freaks’ because when you’re dealing with a Capricorn in a bed, be ready to surrender yourself and your pleasure to them. 

    They like things done a certain way and leave little to no room for spontaneity. They also like being in control of everything and obsess over calling the shots!
    4. Leo © iStock
    The thing with Leos is that they can be selfish both in life and in bed alike. 

    Even though the sign is immensely loving and sensual, they expect more than they like to deliver. 
    A Leo likes to have completion of their partner in bed and feeds off of the love and admiration and affection they receive.

    Amidst all the hullabaloo about the cancellation of the fifth Test at Old Trafford, everyone just quite conveniently overlooked the mental trauma the Indian players endured after a COVID-19 breakout inside their camp.
    Everyone was busy playing the blame game as to why the match was cancelled just hours before the toss. Shouldn’t the announcement have been made the night before to avoid any inconvenience to the fans, who spent their hard-earned money and travelled from different parts of the country to enjoy the series final?
    © Reuters
    While all these concerns are genuine, let’s not forget the concern of Indian players that there could be a further rise in COVID-19 cases among the players was equally genuine. They had no idea things would escalate this rapidly and the series would come to such an unfortunate end. 

    It’s no secret that the incubation period of COVID-19 is 2-3 days. The players were genuinely afraid that they would be an even bigger hole if the match started and they developed symptoms during the game.
    © Reuters
    Rather than thinking rationally, the English media and some cricket experts like Michael Vaughan were hell bent on proving Indian cricketers as the real villains. Not once did they raise the issue of Indian players’ mental well-being.

    The panic inside the camp was genuine because the assistant physio who tested positive had treated several Indian players in the last few days. More than their own health, the players were worried about the well-being of their family members.
    © Reuters
    Dinesh Karthik, who was part of the commentary panel a few weeks ago, explained the grim situation inside the Indian camp the night before the final Test match. Most of the players were so terrified that they couldn’t sleep and were awake till 3:00 am in the morning.

    “Let's take an example for today, most of the guys today haven't even slept till 2.30-3 in the morning because they don't know if they have to be ready for the match, they don't know because you know it's very late in India, so they don't know if they're going to be able to speak to ECB those kinds of discussions were gone,” Karthik told Sky Sports.
    © Reuters
    “So most of them haven't even slept till 3 O'clock so the Test match happening today was out of the question almost. It's whether they can delay it further, but you have to remember that there is a good chance that in the RT-PCR test three days later, someone could test positive and if he's in the playing 11, then what happens to that person,” Karthik explained.

    The manner in which the match was called off was really unfortunate but one shouldn’t forget that there was a genuine concern about the safety and well-being of the Indian players. You can criticise them for letting the fans down but don’t forget that they are also humans not machines and their safety is as important as any of us.
