Emma Roberts' secret hobby revealed as she makes surprise appearance at Fanatics event
Emma Roberts ' secret hobby has been revealed as the star made an appearance at Fanatics Fest 2025 on Friday in New York City. The American Horror Story actress, 34 - who turned heads at the Zimmermann Summer event this week - joined other celebrities during the festivities, such as retired NFL player Tom Brady. The mom-of-one is no stranger when it comes to the world of sports, and has dropped hints about one of her passions: collecting trading cards. Earlier this year in January, Roberts jumped to her Instagram stories to reveal that she pulled a Jackson Holliday Topps Chrome card. Holliday is an infielder for the Baltimore Orioles. She uploaded a snap of herself at the time as she held the card and placed one of her hands over her mouth in excitement. In text added towards the top of the photo, Emma penned to her followers: 'the face of pulling my most covered 1/1. #1of1day @topps.' And earlier this year in April, the beauty shared a photo dump onto her main page - and showcased more cards that she had pulled. One of them included an autographed Caleb Williams card - who is known as the quarterback of the Chicago Bears. Roberts was pictured sitting at a table inside what appeared to be restaurant with cards and unopened foil packages placed in front of her. She gave a look at the Williams card by holding it up towards the camera and held a big smile on her face. The last image in the post showed two Star Wars cards, with one of Darth Vader and the other Mustafar. At the time, some social media users jumped to the comment section of the post to share their thoughts of the actress's subtle hint at her secret hobby. One had penned, 'A collector!' followed by clapping hand emojis, while another typed, 'Those cards are awesome, good pulls!' 'Sweater matching the pack foils??? Operating on elite levels at the moment,' a fan added, referencing to the card packaging. At the time, some social media users jumped to the comment section of the post to share their thoughts of the actress's subtle hint at her secret hobby One had penned, 'A collector!' followed by clapping hand emojis, while another typed, 'Those cards are awesome, good pulls!' One shared, 'And you rip cards?!' while another commented, 'Bro we need pack opening videos. Let us scratch that itch.' Emma had the chance to take part in a discussion at 2025 Fanatics Fest on Friday for the panel: Ready. Set. Collect. On the stage, she was also joined by retired NFL quarterback Tom Brady as well as Logan Paul. The Scream Queens alum wore a sleeveless, dark blue-patterned dress which was paired with sheer black tights and heels. Her reddish locks were parted in the middle and effortlessly flowed down past her shoulders in light waves. The star - who has previously sported blonde locks - debuted the new hair color earlier this year in February. Just days earlier before whisking herself to NYC, the actress put on a stylish display as she enjoyed time in Mykonos, Greece. On Tuesday, she attended the Zimmerman Summer lunch and wore a patterned sundress as well as a pair of open-toed, tan pumps. Her locks were styled into two braids and she also carried a fashionable bag in her hands to hold items she needed during the event. Emma additionally sported a pair of large shades to protect her eyes from the bright sunshine at the venue near the ocean. And one day earlier on Monday, the star was spotted posing for a brief photo session on a sandy area near the water. She wore a semi-sheer dress that fell down past her ankles at the Zimmerman Summer event. Other stars were also in attendance including actress Olivia Wilde. While Roberts recently revealed her passion for trading cards, the star has another known hobby: reading books. Back in 2017, she notably launched the online reading community Belletrist with close friend Karah Preiss. During an interview with People last year, Emma opened up about choosing books for the club and admitted that 'there is no formula.' She added, 'It's genuinely whatever moves us. But I will say try to pick books that we read and then need to talk about. That's what makes a good Belletrist pick. You read it and you're like: I gotta talk to someone about this - now!' Roberts has been in a relationship with actor Cody John since 2022, and the couple announced their engagement last year in July. The actress is also mom to son Rhodes, four - whom she shares with ex Garrett Hedlund.

Bayern beat Boca to seal Club World Cup last 16 spot
Michael Olise's 84th-minute goal was enough to give Bayern Munich a 2-1 win over Boca Juniors in Miami Gardens, as the reigning German champions clinched a spot in the knockout phase of the Club World Cup. After a scramble in the penalty area, Harry Kane sent the ball back to Olise, who blasted a shot into the bottom left corner of the net. Boca had levelled Friday's match in the 66th minute on a goal from Miguel Merentiel after Kane gave Bayern a first-half lead. Bayern (2-0-0, 6 points) faced a much stiffer test than in their Group C opener, a 10-0 rout of semi-pro Auckland City (0-2-0, 0 points). Boca Juniors (0-1-1, 1 point) still have a chance to advance, but they would need to rout Auckland City on Tuesday in Nashville and have Benfica (1-0-1, 4 points) lose to Bayern the same day in Charlotte. For Boca's tying goal, Alan Velasco delivered a pass from midfield into space for Merentiel to chase. Merentiel beat Bayern defender Jonathan Tah to the ball, then rounded defender Josip Stanisic before firing a 12-yard, right-footed shot over the head of goalkeeper Manuel Neuer and into the net. Bayern also produced an impressive goal. Konrad Laimer fired an entry pass to the centre of the Boca penalty area. Kingsley Coman knocked the ball back to Kane, who took a heavy touch but still reached the ball in time to fire in a 12-yard shot with his left foot.

‘They won't give me because…': Trump on being nominated for Nobel Peace Prize by Pak
US President Donald Trump reignited his calls for a Nobel Peace Prize soon after Pakistan nominated him for the prestigious award. Claiming that he played key diplomatic efforts across several global conflict zones, including India-Pakistan and the Congo-Rwanda crisis, Trump said that he should have won the prize 4-5 times by now. Pakistan Field Marshal Asim Munir met US President Donald Trump during his Washington trip. "They should give me the Nobel Prize for Rwanda and if you look, the Congo, or you could say Serbia, Kosovo, you could say a lot of them," Trump told reporters Friday. "The big one is India and Pakistan. I should have gotten it four or five times." The Pakistani government formally nominated US President Donald Trump for the 2026 Nobel Peace Prize, citing his "decisive diplomatic intervention and pivotal leadership" during the recent conflict between India and Pakistan. In a post on X, Pakistan's Foreign Ministry said, 'President Donald J. Trump deserves the Nobel Peace Prize in 2026 in recognition of his decisive diplomatic intervention and pivotal leadership during the recent India-Pakistan crisis.' Trump has long claimed that he helped de-escalate tensions between the two nuclear powers, a claim that Indian government has dismissed numerous times. In his Friday comments, Trump also alluded to a peace agreement he said would be signed on Monday, aimed at ending hostilities between the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Rwanda - a long-standing regional conflict that has seen renewed violence in recent months. Details of the treaty remain unclear, and no independent verification of US involvement has been released. 'I should have gotten it four or five times,' Trump reiterated. 'They won't give me a Nobel Peace Prize because they only give it to liberals.' Trump has previously received multiple Nobel Prize nominations from supporters, particularly for his role in facilitating normalization agreements between Israel and several Arab states under the Abraham Accords. However, he has not been awarded the prize. The Nobel Peace Prize is awarded annually by the Norwegian Nobel Committee, which selects recipients based on their efforts to promote peace and resolve conflicts. The committee has never publicly commented on Trump's candidacy.
