were rumoured to have a romance during the filming and promotion of the film, 'Anyone But You.'
What did Gigi Paris feel?
'It was just, this is what I have to do for my job. I had two options. I could either pretend like I was going along with everything and have everyone wonder, like, 'Are they hooking up? Are they not hooking up? Is she okay with this? Or stand up for myself and say, 'No, I'm actually not okay with this, and I'm walking away.'
So that's what I decided to do ... I was shattered,' Gigi said in the interview.
Furthermore, the 32-year-old said that she merely needed the respect she deserved in the relationship. Paris said that the relationship was fed to the dogs because of how it was handled.

You just need to stand up...
'Where are you when you just need to stand up and say, 'No, I would never cheat on my girlfriend.
I wouldn't do that.' That's all that needed to be said. And that wasn't said... Never once,' Gigi said, before adding that later the rumours turned out to be a PR scheme, which came at the expense of their relationship.
Was the split worth the film?
Furthermore, the model recalled the incident where she flew to Australia to be near her boyfriend; however, she was advised not to be on the sets. While she questioned whether all this was just for a film, she added, 'And I honestly hoped that they'd end up together, because I was like, at least it would make it worth it for me, you know? I hope they are in love or whatnot.'

Sydney Sweeney reveals how she prepared for challenging role in Echo Valley: 'When you have a scene partner like Julianne...'
is currently making waves with her challenging and brilliant portrayal in Echo Valley. Her performance is described as unsettling and a perfect portrayal of calculated chaos. The actress plays Claire Garrett, a troubled girl who arrives at her mother's ranch soaked in blood, triggering a series of events that uncover unsettling and dark secrets, which challenges their already fragile bond. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now Sydney's performance is being applauded all around the globe and recently the actress shared how she prepared herself to play such a complicated role. In a recent interview with Variety, the 'Anyone but You' star opened up on working in Echo Valley and said, "When you have a scene partner like Julianne, it's not as hard as you would think. She is such an amazing actress and just so emotionally available and open, it makes you feel safe. So I felt very, very comfortable going to very deep raw places." Adding how she prepared for the part, the actress shared, "I watched a lot of videos. There's a YouTube series of this guy that interviews people on Skid Row that have struggled with addiction and are [still] currently. I watched a lot of them and drew from different stories that they would tell or mannerisms that they have." Adding further, "Sometimes, to be honest, I don't really plan anything, or I don't like to think it through. I don't know if that's great, but for me, it's like, you don't really rehearse a conversation that you're gonna have. Like, I didn't rehearse things out. I kind of like being able to see whatever's gonna happen, happen. It's really exciting. And then you can learn in the process and discover new things," she concluded. Sydney is set for the upcoming year with movies like Immaculate, Eden, and The Housemaid. She is also set to star in a movie adaptation of the video game Split Fiction and a remake of Barbarella.

New menus in Mumbai you should try this weekend
In Mumbai, the one constant on the dining scene is that nothing stays the same for too long. From neighbourhood favourites to new openings, Mumbai's F&B space thrives on reinvention. Menus are rewritten, old classics get new life, and familiar addresses quietly slip in seasonal surprises. Which is precisely why even your favourite spots deserve a revisit every now and then. This weekend, if you are looking for a reason to dine out, these new menus — from playful reinterpretations to thoughtful ingredient-led dishes — might just tempt you back to your old haunts, but with plenty that is new. La Loca Maria's summer taqueria menu Chef Manuel Olveira's new Taqueria menu at La Loca Maria is a vibrant, flavour-packed summer special. What began as a hit limited-run in 2019 — inspired by co-owner (and Chef Manuel's wife) Mickee Tuljapurkar's taco memory in Amsterdam — now returns, blending Spanish-Mexican flavours with playful finesse. Expect silky guac and chips with purple corn crisps, coastal-fresh Aguachile, and crisp tostones topped with everything from pumpkin to sashimi-grade tuna. Tacos take centre stage: think tempura avocado and sweet potato with chipotle and goat cheese, flame-grilled tacos piratas with tenderloin, and slow-braised lamb tacos in adobo. The tetelas — griddled masa pockets — offer confit duck or king oyster mushroom fillings, while pistachio-stuffed churros end the meal on a sweet note. Wash it all down with mango margaritas, smoky mezcal palomas, or refreshing aguas frescas. The Taqueria runs through June 2025. Fatima Villa, 29th Road, Pali Hill, Bandra West, Mumbai - 400050; for reservations, call 9324404335 Lovefools launches 'Lunchish' Lovefools, a Bandra favourite, introduces a new menu, Lunchish, which exists somewhere between breakfast, brunch and lunch, but refuses to be boxed in. As Chef Sarita Pereira explains, 'We wanted to create something that tastes just as satisfying at 11 am as it does at 4 pm.' They are closed on Mondays. The globally inspired menu reads like a culinary travelogue. The Jay Fai Bucket List transforms Bangkok's crab omelette with Kerala moilee curry. Sawadee Mango Toast pairs mango with Thai chilli-lime papaya salad. The Mexican Khichu reinvents Gujarat's comfort dish with jalapeños, raw mango salsa and paprika cornflakes. Panji to Pattaya fuses Goan prawns with Thai noodles and coconut milk, while the Katsu 'Curry' Benedict layers katsu chicken, poached egg and Japanese curry hollandaise on toasted brioche.

From the light, bright seabass pomelo ceviche to the punchy yuzu kosho prawns, each dish reflects Gigi's quiet sophistication. Seasonality shines through in the tortellini de automne, while the miso glazed celeriac fondant and Portobello steak spotlight vegetable-forward, slow-cooked depth. The shimo no kare offers a soulful reinterpretation of Japanese curry, and the miso truffle udon delivers rich, umami depth. Dessert arrives in the form of the noir caramel — a balanced bittersweet finale. 14th Rd, Bandra West, Mumbai, Maharashtra 400050; for reservations, call 8976943116 With love, from Hanoi, at JW Marriott Mumbai Juhu From June 13th to 22nd, JW Marriott Mumbai Juhu, in collaboration with JW Marriott Hanoi, presents With Love From Hanoi — a Vietnamese food festival at Lotus Café.
