Khloe Kardashian Shines In Sequinned Purple Gown At Duftstars Awards 2025
Khloe Kardashian made heads turn at the Duftstars 2025 Awards, where she received the Personality Award for Global Innovation.
American reality television star and savvy entrepreneur Khloe Kardashian made a jaw-dropping appearance at the Duftstars 2025 Awards, where she was honoured with the Personality Award for Global Innovation. Known for her head-turning fashion sense and dynamic business ventures, Khloé didn't disappoint – her radiant look became one of the night's most talked-about highlights.
Sharing her excitement with fans, Khloe Kardashian posted stunning photos from the evening on her Instagram and expressed her gratitude in the caption, 'Duftstars thank you! What an incredible honor!! I am still floating! XO Khloé."
For the glamorous event, Khloe chose a bold and brilliant purple ensemble that captured the spotlight from every angle. The ankle-length dress was adorned with shimmering purple sequins, creating a textured, eye-catching effect. The fitted silhouette hugged her figure in all the right places, accentuating her curves from the bodice through the hips before falling into a sleek, straight-cut finish below the waist.
She elevated the sparkling outfit with silver pointed-toe stilettos featuring delicate ankle straps, adding just the right amount of edge to the look. Her accessories included a tasteful stack of diamond-studded bracelets, elegant infinity-style rings glistening on her fingers, and classic solitaire diamond studs that added a refined touch of elegance.
Khloe's hair was styled to perfection – voluminous, waves cascaded down her back, pulled into a sleek half-up, high ponytail that gave her an effortlessly chic, modern flair. When it came to makeup, Khloe stuck to her signature glam: a beautifully bronzed complexion, soft contouring, dramatic monochrome smokey eyes, and nude glossy lips that completed her red-carpet-ready aesthetic.
Beyond her fashion choices, Khloe continues to make waves in the business world. She is the co-founder of Good American, a fashion-forward brand launched in 2016 alongside entrepreneur Emma Grede. Known for championing body inclusivity, the label offers sizes ranging from 00 to 24 and has grown to include not just denim, but also swimwear and a variety of women's apparel.
Adding to her business, Khloe recently introduced a unique snack line named Khloud – a protein-rich popcorn brand developed in collaboration with K5 Global. The venture reflects her commitment to health-conscious, innovative products that cater to evolving consumer lifestyles.

Hulk Hogan embodied the American dream — and its many nightmares
Pro wrestling is an ostentatious, over-the-top spectacle of violence and showmanship, an endless soap opera whose characters dress in tights and perform mind-boggling stunts to entertain their legions of fans. The audience knows about kayfabe but doesn't care, allowing wrestling to straddle reality and fiction unlike any other performing art in the world. In many ways, pro wrestling is the perfect microcosm of Donald Trump's America, a country where the line between what is true and false has been catastrophically blurred, news is increasingly unmistakable from parody, politics is conducted and consumed like entertainment, and conflict underpins public life. Trump's own links to World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) and Vince McMahon, the promotion's erstwhile owner who also played a cartoonishly evil, eponymous character, add further heft to this assessment. Hulk Hogan, pro wrestling's greatest ever superstar who died this week, is MAGA through and through. And he is the quintessential American, an ultimate embodiment of the great American Dream, with all its vast contradictions and ugliness. The son of a construction worker, Hogan was a relative unknown outside wrestling circles when he landed a cameo in Sylver Stallone's Rocky III in 1982. His performance caught the eye of the ambitious McMahon, who saw in Hogan's impressive 6'8' stature and 24-inch pythons (read biceps) the key to taking pro wrestling from grimy backrooms and local TV networks in small-town America to the pinnacle of mainstream pop culture. Indeed, WWE might never have been a billion-dollar company without Hulkamania. In the 1980s, Hogan was as big a celebrity as there has ever been — imagine Taylor Swift today, but on steroids (literally). Hogan's rise to superstardom exemplified the ideals of the American Dream: it was a story of what the average Joe could achieve in America through sheer hard work, uninhibited self-belief, and a healthy dose of patriotism. But behind the success of Hulkamania was a carefully crafted in-ring persona deliberately fashioned around these cherished American ideals. McMahon booked Hogan as the archetypal babyface: He would almost always take a pounding before suddenly turning the bout around, and finishing his opponent with an Atomic Leg Drop. This move, in anticipation of which audiences would go into a frenzy, did so much damage to Hogan's spine that he spent his last years on and off a wheelchair. Hogan, and many other fellow wrestlers, would call this his ultimate 'sacrifice' for wrestling. The moustachioed baldie, who would arrive at the ring to Rick Derringer's 'Real American', always reminded the fans to 'train hard, say your prayers and take your vitamins', although he himself would later admit to using anabolic steroids to hulk up. After a high-profile investigation on steroid use in the WWF in 1993-94, Hogan would quickly lose a noticeable amount of muscle — so much for the vitamins. Hogan's character also championed the classic 'cheer for me because I'm American and my opponent isn't' angle, with Hogan wearing his patriotism on his sleeve (often literally). His feuds with the likes Nikolai Volkoff, an ethnic Czech made to play the 'evil Russian' by McMahon, and the Iron Sheik (later called General Mustafa), a supposed Saddam Hussain sympathiser, were rife with not-so-subtle racist stereotyping. Hogan almost always emerged victorious, and in the process cemented America's supremacy. In recent years, a number of unsavoury details have come out about Hogan's private life and personality. He has often made both racist and homophobic statements: A leaked phone conversation in 2015 saw Hogan telling his son, who at the time was serving a brief prison sentence, 'I just hope we don't come back as a couple, I don't want to say it, blizz-ack gizz-uys, you know what I'm saying?' Hogan was also a prolific philanderer and a through-and-through company man who would snitch on his colleagues to curry favour with management. Charisma and wrestling chops aside, Hogan politicked his way to the top and politicked some more to stay there, famously ratting out Jesse Ventura to McMahon for trying to get wrestlers to unionise in the mid-1980s. Hogan thus leaves a complicated legacy for fans of being the quintessential American hero while also, by many accounts, being a somewhat dubious character. His emergence as one of the most vocal supporters of Donald Trump in recent years — Hogan famously called Trump his 'hero' at last year's Republican National Convention — has only made him more polarising. But while it might be 'woke' to hate Hogan today, he was but a product of the world he inhabited. He did what he did to succeed and survive in a cut-throat industry, said what he said because he knew what the audiences wanted. That America made him the superstar he was speaks more about Americans than Hogan himself.

After the ban on ALTT, Ekta Kapoor lashes out in anger, 'Jise bhi iski fikr ho...'
Yesterday, the government took a big step and banned many OTT platforms serving vulgar content, one of which was ALTT. Its earlier name was ALT Balaji, whose co-founders were TV queen Ekta Kapoor and her mother, Shobha Kapoor. Jeetendra's daughter Ekta Kapoor's Alt Balaji has been in controversy many times due to its content. Now, as soon as the government has banned it, Ekta has spoken out on social media. What has Ekta Kapoor said? Soon after the ban on ALTT, Ekta Kapoor issued a statement expressing her anger and distancing herself from this OTT platform. She issued a statement on her Instagram account saying that she has nothing to do with ALTT anymore. She broke ties with it in 2021 itself. Ekta Kapoor's post further said, 'There are reports in the media that ALTT has been banned by the authorities; however, contrary to these reports, Ekta Kapoor and Mrs. Shobha Kapoor are not associated with ALTT in any way and they severed their ties with ALTT in June 2021 itself. Any allegation contrary to the facts stated above is strongly denied and the media is requested to present the correct facts.' While sharing a post, Ekta Kapoor wrote in the caption, 'Jise bhi iski fikr ho.' It is known that a few days ago, Ekta Kapoor had defended the content being served on ALTT in an interview. Which apps have been banned by the government? The government has mandated the shutdown of websites and applications belonging to 25 OTT platforms, such as Ullu, ALTT, and Desiflix, due to the presence of obscene, vulgar, and in certain instances, pornographic material. Among the applications flagged for breaching various regulations are ALTT, ULLU, Big Shots App, Desiflix, Boomex, Navarasa Lite, Gulab App, Kangan App, Bull App, Jalva App, ShowHit, Wow Entertainment, Look Entertainment, Hitprime, Feneo, ShowX, Sol Talkies, Adda TV, HotX VIP, Hulchul App, MoodX, NeonX VIP, Fugi, Mojflix, and Triflicks, according to officials. The ban earlier imposed on House Arrest Previously, the web series House Arrest was removed by Ullu in May following intervention from the ministry. Officials indicated that all 25 platforms were instructed, in September of the previous year, to stop disseminating obscene, vulgar, and in some cases, pornographic content, yet they persisted in doing so. They noted that five platforms, which had been blocked earlier in March 2024, resumed publishing obscene content on new website domains.
