Zanilia Zhao rumoured to be dating director Midi Z
Gossip vlogger "Melon-eating Girl Zhang Xiaohan" recently claimed in a live stream that the two met on the set of "The Unseen Sister", which Zanilia starred alongside Xin Zhilei, and Midi directed.
They reportedly became close since then, and that Midi was even spotted taking Zanilia's son out for a walk near her place. They were also seen interacting naturally, and seemed more like a father and son than anything.
Midi was also spotted entering and leaving Zanilia's place many times the next day on 1 May.
42-year-old Midi, who is a Myanmar-born Taiwanese director, is known for his many critically acclaimed films, including the 2014 film, "Ice Poison" and 2016's "The Road to Mandalay".
Meanwhile, the 37-year-old Zanilia was previously married to actor Feng Shaofeng, whom she met on the set of "The Monkey King 3" in 2018.

Luka Doncic And Bam Adebayo Spotted Partying With Michael Jordan At Exclusive Jordan Brand Event
Luka Doncic And Bam Adebayo Spotted Partying With Michael Jordan At Exclusive Jordan Brand Event originally appeared on Fadeaway World. Luka Doncic and Bam Adebayo were recently spotted enjoying themselves at an exclusive Jordan Brand dinner and afterparty in Athens, Greece, a lavish gathering hosted by none other than basketball legend Michael Jordan himself. The event brought together some of Jordan Brand's most prominent athletes and ambassadors, blending celebrity style, brand synergy, and a celebratory vibe that underscored the growing global reach of the Jordan empire. The biggest star of the night? None other than Luka Doncic, who has become not only a face of the modern NBA but also one of Jordan Brand's marquee names. Doncic was the centerpiece of the evening, standing shoulder to shoulder with fellow athletes and entertainers such as Bam Adebayo, Rui Hachimura, Quentin Richardson, NFL star Cam Jordan, model Jessica Sims, and Hall of Famer Carmelo Anthony. During the event, teams were formed for a creative design challenge, one of the night's main attractions. Doncic, Bam, Q-Rich, Jessica Sims, and Cam Jordan made up one of the standout squads. The group not only impressed the judges but also ended up winning the challenge, taking home a trophy and a luxury bottle of Cincoro Tequila. The tequila, a premium brand co-founded by Jordan himself, was handed to Doncic personally by Quentin Richardson, who affectionately dubbed the Lakers superstar the 'MVP' of the team. The festivities didn't end with the design competition. Luka, Bam, and Richardson were all seen together later that night, letting loose and enjoying the Athens nightlife. In a now-viral snap shared by Q-Rich, the trio is captured laughing, dancing, and celebrating with unmistakable chemistry. Another image from the night showed Bam Adebayo and Richardson posing with Michael Jordan himself a snapshot that speaks volumes about the level of exclusivity and respect involved in the gathering. For Bam Adebayo, the moment was more than just a party; it was a continuation of his longstanding relationship with Jordan Brand. Since signing a multi-year deal with the brand in 2019, Adebayo has represented Jordan with consistency and class. Though known for his grit and defense on the hardwood, Bam's off-court presence, particularly in fashion and marketing, has made him one of the brand's most versatile ambassadors. As for Luka Doncic, his role at the event cemented just how valuable he has become to the Jordan empire. In 2023, Doncic extended his deal with the brand through 2029, and he remains the first European-born and raised player to sign a signature shoe deal with Jordan. According to Forbes, Luka's endorsement earnings are currently estimated at $15 million annually, with projections suggesting that number could explode to $60–80 million in the coming years due to his rising global appeal, MVP-level performances, and widespread marketability. The Greece gathering was a reflection of more than just camaraderie or brand loyalty; it was a showcase of who the future belongs to. And at the center of it, as always, was Luka Doncic: a superstar on and off the court, sharing a bottle of tequila and a moment of celebration with the greatest player of all time. This story was originally reported by Fadeaway World on Jul 13, 2025, where it first appeared.

Next-Gen Alamo Drafthouse Goes the Fancy Private Theater Route
is an editor and reporter for the Northeast region at Eater, focusing primarily on New York City, where she was born and raised. She covers restaurants, bars, pop-ups, and the people powering them. The founder of Alamo Drafthouse is opening a new movie theater in New York — one built entirely for private groups, with multi-course meals themed with whatever's playing on screen. Alamo Drafthouse has been a leader in the rise of dine-in movie theaters over the last decade. Now the Austin-born company is investing in Metro Private Cinema, opening in September at 131 Eighth Avenue, at West 16th Street, in Chelsea. Owner Tim League hopes to expand to other locations soon. At Metro Private Cinema, rather than purchasing an individual seat ticket, a host books a whole private screening room. Choose the movie (there's a range of titles), time, and food/drinks. Rooms — it's a 'twenty-plex' — generally seat between four and 12. The base is $50 per person with unlimited popcorn. It may be about double the price of a regular movie ticket, but it's easy to see it being popular for birthday parties or work events. Much like Alamo Drafthouse is known for, there are culinary add-ons. For example, for a showing of Garlic Is as Good as Ten Mothers, it would thematically make sense to pair the Les Blank documentary with their garlicky dinner experience that includes a chilled almond soup, charcuterie, roasted rabbit, and succotash. 'Every dish in this menu, from the cocktails to the dessert and everything in between, is kissed or clobbered by God's gift to cuisine: garlic,' the website writes. But you can mix-and-match: There's a Wicked-themed menu; a Goodfellas dinner; and A Christmas Story Chinese roast duck experience, among others. Multi-course meals are about $100 per person. After the movie ends, the group gets about 30 minutes extra time to keep hanging out. The menu was developed by Joshua Guarneri, who previously was the executive chef at the short-lived Bar Avalon in Los Angeles and worked at the Breslin in New York. 'We're going to have a lot of fun,' League said, who, as we spoke for the interview, mentioned pickling projects were happening downstairs at the venue in anticipation of opening. Financially, Alamo Drafthouse invested in the venture and has equity shares, though it is being positioned as an offshoot (League stepped down as Alamo CEO in 2020, but is still very involved in the company he founded). It's his first big move following much drama that has shrouded Alamo Drafthouse. In 2022, the Texas Observer chronicled challenges the chain faced during the pandemic, which included employee layoffs and bankruptcy as theaters struggled during COVID. The publication also called the portrait of working there 'far from fantastic' (a reference to the company's Fantastic Fest), a nationwide chain that 'remains popular despite accusations of union busting and allegations of sexual assault,' referring to issues regarding business associates and customers who had been accused of misconduct over the years. In 2018, Splinter reported that League and his wife, Karrie, had been accused of 'minimizing' workplace issues during the #MeToo era. League said in a statement around that time: 'I've let so many of you down. Over the past few days, I've realized that decisions I have made over these past months have been problematic. I am concerned about what these choices may say about me and the values of this company to employees, customers and the community at large. I'm humbled and deeply sorry.' In 2024, Alamo Drafthouse was acquired by Sony. Earlier this year, Variety reported that Alamo Drafthouse's unionizing workers at the Lower Manhattan and Downtown Brooklyn locations ended a 58-day strike after reaching an agreement with management, also bringing back about 70 employees who were previously let go. Despite in-person attendance at theaters shifting, Alamo has continued to open new locations. League says part of what led him to launch Metro Private Cinema in Chelsea was that there was a theater nearby that had closed and he wanted to fill the gap: 'New York is an old city. In order to build a traditional movie theater, you need high ceilings and forty-foot spans; most New York buildings aren't set up for that,' he adds of the business's flexibility, 'We can slide into a former Duane Reade pharmacy, which pushes the idea forward.' It's apace with the numerous members-only clubs in New York, some with their own theaters. Over at Fouquet's New York, a hotel in Tribeca, it was reported by the New York Post that its Cannes Cinema started selling tickets to the public, at $110 for two drinks and a movie, $165 for the movie plus a prix fixe dinner at the property's French brasserie. Dine-in theaters like Syndicated in Bushwick and both Brooklyn Nitehawk locations also offer private event booking. 'There's a certain number of people who would prefer to be in a private place than a huge room with strangers […] it's an alternative that works alongside traditional cinemagoing,' League says. 'And, hopefully, this can grow a new market for people who aren't going to the cinema as much.'

Berghaus Has Relaunched 'That' Jacket – the One Made Famous by Liam Gallagher
Oasiskicked off their highly anticipatedLive '25reunion tour earlier this month, 16 years after the Gallagher brothers' public falling-out that led to the band's split. The Britpop band's impact on British culture in the 1990s can't be overstated – they helped define a generation, not just through their music, but with their style, too. From bucket hats to Burberry check and fishtail parkas to buttoned-up polo shirts, Oasis' look became the Britpop uniform: a blend of classic mod style, sartorialized football terraces and Manchester-born attitude that immortalized a moment in British music that reverberated far beyond the UK. Through it all,Berghaus– the British outerwear brand with a German-sounding name – was right there in the mix. In 1997, at an Oasis show in Oslo, Liam Gallagher appeared on-stage wearing a redMerujacket by Berghaus. Liam, the younger Gallagher brother, was already known for having a penchant for long parkas and statement outerwear, but his choice that night – captured in a now-iconic photograph – catapulted the brand into the consciousness of both Oasis fans and the fashion-obsessed. Now, Berghaus is marking the moment by rereleasing theMerujacket in 'the exact colorway Liam wore' as part of theConcert Collection, a limited-edition capsule that also features two other iconic pieces from the Berghaus archive. TheMerujacket, which originally launched in 1994, is being made available in 'Red/Blue' (Liam's choice), 'Purple/Grey' and 'Green/Black'. Berghaus is also resurrecting theTrangojacket, a heavy-duty waterproof jacket from 1986 that it describes as 'specialist powerhouse'. TheTrangofeatures a triple layer of GORE-TEX for maximum protection from wind and water, and comes in choices of 'Red/Blue', 'Red/Grey' and 'Grey/Dark Blue'. Alongside the jackets, the brand is launching the1997 Fleece– a new piece in its range, even if its name suggests otherwise – that it calls a 'staple [with] the DNA of an icon'. The fleece features a boxy cut for elevated coziness, with colors available including 'Red/Blue', 'Red/Grey' and 'Green/Grey'. The fullConcert Collectionis available now via Berghaus'websitewith prices starting at £120 GBP (approx. $162 USD).
