Scarlett Johansson shares tender kiss with co-star at ‘Jurassic World Rebirth' premiere

News.com.au5 days ago

Scarlett Johansson and Jonathan Bailey shared a friendly smooch at the Jurassic World Rebirth premiere.
The co-stars were seen greeting each other with a warm hug and an adorable kiss on the red carpet at the screening of their film at London's Odeon Luxe Leicester Square Cinema Tuesday.
Johansson, 40, grabbed the Bridgerton actor's face and pulled him in close to press her pout against his.
Bailey, 37, appeared excited over the lock-lipping interaction and wrapped his arms around her back to give her a big embrace.
They both smiled exuberantly while staring into each other's eyes.
Johansson stunned in a sparkling sequin and bead-adorned pink strapless gown with a corsetted bodice by Vivienne Westwood.
The Jojo Rabbit actress — who was outfitted for the event by her stylist Kate Young — also wore her blond hair in old Hollywood waves.
The Wicked star was dressed far more casually in a brown blazer layered over a blue denim collared shirt and white pants. He shielded his face in sunglasses and a two-tone baseball cap.
Despite their PDA-packed moment at the starry event, where attendees included cast members Rupert Friend and Mahershala Ali, they were clearly just being playful.
Johansson has been married to Colin Jost, 42, since 2020.
Bailey, for his part, is seemingly off the market as he confirmed in 2023 that he was seeing 'a lovely man.' However, he has yet to reveal the name of his partner.
'It's not secret, but it's private,' he told the Evening Standard of his relationship at the time.
'Having a private life is, for me, completely critical. I don't know if I would be able to be as confident to speak out on other things if I felt that my whole life was up for grabs.'
While it's clearly just a friendship between Johansson and Bailey, fans still celebrated their loved-up exchange on social media.
'Jonathan Bailey being so loved. Scarlett we get it you adore him,' one person wrote on X, adding, 'This new collaboration and friendship warms my heart.'
'So cute!' a second fan exclaimed.
'SCARLETT HOW DOES IT FEEL TO LIVE MY DREAM,' a third social media user wrote in all caps, lusting over Bailey.
The sci-fi movie hits cinemas July 2.

Oasis: from clash to cash

Fifteen years after their explosive split, British music legends Liam and Noel Gallagher are reuniting for an Oasis tour that promises not only Britpop nostalgia but also staggering revenues. While Liam has insisted that money is "way down the list" of reasons for the feuding brothers' reunion, British press reports have suggested that each sibling could pocket around £50 million ($67 million). Matt Grimes, a music industry expert at Birmingham City University, offered a slightly more conservative estimate of around £40 million per Gallagher for the 17 UK dates alone. Oasis, whose hits include "Wonderwall", "Don't Look Back in Anger" and "Champagne Supernova", kick off the reunion tour on July 4 in Cardiff before playing several dates in their home city of Manchester the following week. Almost 1.4 million tickets have been sold for the UK shows, generating an estimated £240 million, according to Barclays bank. And that's just the beginning. Merchandise sales, from T-shirts and puzzles to baby clothes and tableware, plus six pop-up shops across the UK and Ireland could push total revenue to around £400 million, Grimes said. The 24 concerts outside the UK, including in Buenos Aires, Chicago, Sydney, Tokyo and Toronto, will drive revenues even higher. - Comeback tour- Still, the money from the return of Oasis is dwarfed by Taylor Swift's record-breaking Eras Tour, which grossed $2.2 billion from ticket sales alone across 149 shows worldwide. It was "a much bigger logistical event or sets of events than Oasis are proposing", Grimes said. There was a chaotic scramble for prized Oasis tickets when they went on sale in August last year. But fans were left outraged by exorbitant ticket costs that saw sudden price hikes -- known as dynamic pricing -- based on overwhelming demand, in some cases from £150 to £350. Ticketmaster, one of the official sales websites, said the pricing decision was made by the "tour organiser". Oasis pointed the finger at their promoter. The Gallagher brothers' promotional plan, however, was minimal: two posts on social media -- one to tease, the other to confirm. "The fact that they announced a reunion after many, many years of 'will they, won't they' is enough to make the press interested," Chris Anderton, professor of cultural economics at the University of Southampton, told AFP. - £1 bn economic boost - For Oasis there's no new album to promote, just classics to revive. "In the 1970s, even maybe the 1980s, you went on tour to sell albums," Anderton said. "Now you go on tour to make money and the album is something on the side -- if you make one at all." "Definitely Maybe", released 30 years ago, climbed back to the top of UK sales charts on the back of the reunion tour announcement. Each Oasis concertgoer will spend an average of £766 on tickets and outgoings such as transport and accommodation, according to Barclays. That is set to inject £1 billion into the British economy. Two key shifts help explain the rise of mega-tours, said Cecile Rap-Veber, managing director at the French artists' rights group Sacem. On one hand, streaming "doesn't bring in as much money as the CD era", prompting artists to look at how to make money elsewhere, she said. On the other, "the public's appetite for live shows" surged after the lockdown years of the Covid-19 pandemic. Those factors make fans more willing to spend big. Grimes sums up the choice: "Do I go to... Spain or maybe the south of France for a week's holiday that's going to cost me £600? Or do I go and see my favourite band?" zap/ajb/jkb/js/pst

Singer Tom Parker's devastated widow announces tragic death of new baby

The Wanted singer Tom Parker's widow Kelsey has revealed the tragic death of her baby who was 'born sleeping'. Phoenix Parker-Lindsay died just one week before his due date, it was announced today. Kelsey shared the devastating news by posting a poem to fans, 'For Phoenix. Born sleeping, forever loved.' The phoenix bird symbolises immortality, resurrection and life after death. Kelsey – who announced in January she was expecting her first baby with boyfriend Will Lindsay – wrote on Instagram: 'Before I receive an influx of lovely messages and heartfelt well wishes, I want to just say that I truly appreciate everything you are all going to say and share. 'But with the news being so raw, I would really like to ensure that we as a family are given space and time to process this devastating and earth-shattering news. 'I love you all and thank you for your understanding and space.' Kelsey lost her childhood sweetheart husband Tom in 2022 aged 33 following a brain tumour diagnosis. She shares two children, five-year-old Aurelia and Bodhi, four, with The Wanted star, who scored an Aussie hit in 2011 with his group's signature song, Glad You Came. The family have remained dedicated to raising funds for brain tumour research in Tom's honour with an annual charity football match in his memory. Kelsey went public with her new relationship in September last year, saying she knew her late husband would 'send the right man for her.' The 34-year-old excitedly revealed her pregnancy in January before earlier this month, being pictured ring shopping with her tree surgeon boyfriend, 27. Kelsey previously told how 'close' her kids are to Will – and that they have been excitedly preparing for the new baby to arrive. In an interview with OK! Magazine in March, Kelsey described her pregnancy so far and revealed her due date to be June 30. 'It's been smooth so far', said Kelsey. 'I'm due at the end of June. I'm trying to enjoy this pregnancy more, because I think when you've been through something like I've been through, you realise how precious life is.' 'I know that sounds clichéd, but it's true. I just want to enjoy every moment of it with Will. 'When I fell pregnant with Aurelia, I thought I had my life set. I had the perfect life – I'd been with Tom since the age of 19 and had everything sorted. 'Then my world got flipped upside down and I think that teaches you how precious life is.'
