A columnist scrutinized American celebrities who fled President Donald Trump's second term and have considered returning now that winter is approaching in the United Kingdom.

The Guardian's Arwa Mahdawi wrote in a column on Tuesday how it's rumored that Ellen DeGeneres and Portia de Rossi are reconsidering their Cotswolds residence as the temperature has started to dip.

"Now that the winter gloom has set in, however, rumour has it that the fairweather Brits are plotting a return to Trumpland," Mahdawi wrote. "According to the Mail on Sunday (so take all this with a few pinches of salt), the couple miss their friends and can’t stand the thought of another British winter. I understand being homesick, but you lose a bit of street cred if you flee creeping fascism only to run straight back to it because you’re not used to being a bit chilly."...

Attorneys for Taylor Swift have threatened legal action against a Florida college student who has been tracking the private jets of celebrities and other high-profile figures, including the likes of Tom Cruise, Elon Musk and Drake, as well as the 14-time Grammy winner. Jack Sweeney, a junior at the University of Central Florida, confirmed to the Washington Post that he was contacted by Swift’s legal team over a series of social media accounts he uses to log the takeoffs and landings of the singer’s private planes. In a cease-and-desist letter sent in December, lawyer Katie Wright Morrone liken......

Snoop Dogg is using his celebrity for the greater good, donating $10,000 to help a 93-year-old at risk of being evicted from her family’s Civil War-era home in South Carolina — a plight highlighted by Tyler Perry earlier this summer. The “Drop It Like It’s Hot” rapper, 51, donated $10,000 to Josephine Wright’s GoFundMe intended to help her maintain ownership of her Hilton Head Island property, a representative confirmed to CNN. “I did it from the heart,” he told the outlet in a statement, noting that Wright “reminds me of my mother and grandmother.” A self-described “fighter all my life,” the ......

KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Jennifer Hudson, Leslie Jones, Halle Berry and other Hollywood celebrities have joined the growing national outcry over the shooting of high school student Ralph Yarl. Ralph, 16, was shot last week after approaching the door of the wrong Kansas City home while going to pick up his younger brothers. Singer Justin Timberlake called attention to the shooting on Twitter Monday morning. “#RalphYarl accidentally rang the door of the wrong house while trying to pick up his siblings. For this, a man shot him in the head. Then shot him a 2nd time as he was on the ground. The man is f......

With news that prosecutors in New York City may be ready to indict Donald Trump for his role in a hush money payment to porn star Stormy Daniels, it’s easy to wonder whether the former president would even be in this mess if he had stayed away from a celebrity golf tournament in Lake Tahoe in July 2006. By a number of accounts, including from Daniels, Trump “went wild” over four days at the annual American Century Celebrity Golf Championship, according to a detailed account of that weekend by GQ. Though newly married to Melania Trump, who had given birth to their son Barron four months earlier......

WASHINGTON — John Fetterman just wanted to fit in. After rising to the Senate and political celebrity by being different — with his brawny looks and brash persona — Pennsylvania’s new senator arrived in Washington aiming to tone down his profile. Instead, two hospitalizations have put Fetterman back in the national eye despite his plans to keep his head down, carefully pick his moments to speak out, and learn from his new colleagues. Less than three months into his Senate career, Fetterman could potentially be hospitalized for weeks, a senior aide said Friday. His ongoing health problems since......
