BTS V Drops Wild Hat Selfie and Spills Massive Comeback Spoiler_You Won't Believe What He Said About the Next Album
If you thought your friend's fashion sense was wild, wait till you see what BTS's V (Kim Taehyung) just pulled off. On July 1, V posted a selfie on his Instagram Story that had fans doing double takes.
No caption, no warning-just V chilling in a luxury Celine store in Japan, rocking a plain black tee and pants combo. But the real showstopper? A hat so wild it looked like it was made out of kadaif (yes, the dessert). Only V could pull off something that covers his entire face except for his eyes and still look like a million bucks.
Turns out, V had just flown back to Korea after attending Jin's concert and a quick trip to Japan.
And while most of us would be jet-lagged and hiding under our duvets, V was out here serving looks and breaking the internet.
BTS's First Group Live After Military-And the Comeback News We've Been Dying For

Starting July, we'll be focusing on music together." He kept the details hush-hush, but hinted that this would be the group's first proper album in six years since "Map of the Soul: 7.
" That's like waiting from your first year of college till graduation for a new BTS album-no wonder ARMYs are losing it.
Then, V straight-up ended the suspense. When RM jokingly asked, "So when's the album coming out?" V didn't hesitate: "Next spring!" he blurted out, sending fans into a frenzy.
He also teased that the album work would kick off in the US, with RM adding that it might turn into a "song camp" moving from place to place. Basically, BTS is about to go on a global creative road trip, and we're all invited (well, spiritually).
V Gets Real About Military Life and His Unexpected DM
V also opened up about his time in the army, sharing some surprisingly relatable moments. He talked about how certain messages kept him going during tough days, especially a letter written by comedian Moon Sanghoon to Yoo Jae-suk. V even DM'd Moon Sanghoon for the first time, saying it really helped him. He hinted at maybe appearing on Moon's YouTube channel "Ppadeonus"-imagine V just popping up on a random comedy vlog!
Why This Hits Home for Us
Let's be real-waiting for your favorite artist's comeback is a universal struggle.
Whether it's BTS or your favorite Bollywood star, the anticipation, the spoilers, the wild fashion statements-it's all part of the ride. And just like us, these global icons have their own moments of vulnerability, late-night DMs, and comfort food hats (okay, maybe that last one is just V). The fact that BTS is planning their comeback like a college road trip, with creative pit stops and spontaneous ideas, feels super relatable.
It's the kind of chaotic, passionate energy every youth squad dreams of.
And if you're wondering about the economics-while V's Celine outfit might cost more than your semester fees, the excitement he brings is priceless.
As we count down to next spring, let's remember: no matter where you are, the wait for something epic is always worth it.
Sometimes, even global superstars need a little comfort and a lot of creativity. Here's to more wild hats, honest moments, and comebacks that make us all feel a little more connected.

Performer's novel tribute to Lord Jagannath & Lord Krishna draws devotees
1 2 Bhubaneswar: A distinctive artistic expression caught the attention of thousands of devotees during Bahuda Yatra in Puri on Saturday, as an Odissi dancer painted her face depicting Lord Jagannath and Lord Krishna on different sides. Puri-based performer Aparna Panda, whose innovative representation symbolised the unity of divine forms, drew Lord Krishna on the right side of her face while showcasing Lord Jagannath's distinctive features on the left. The intricate artwork created a powerful visual representation of spiritual unity. "Through the artistic expression, I wanted to convey that divinity is one, though we worship different forms. The amalgamation of Lord Jagannath and Lord Krishna on my face represents the fundamental truth that all divine forms are ultimately one," said Aparna, whose elder sister Annapurna performed as Chaitanya Mahaprabhu in front of the chariots. "During last year's Rath Yatra, I dressed up as Jagannath and my elder sister performed as devadasi. Our intention is to promote our culture and tradition during this world famous festival, which is the biggest platform. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Pernas e tornozelos inchados?

Family and football unite to bid Diogo Jota farewell
Gondomar: Liverpool and Portugal forward Diogo Jota and his brother were laid to rest on Saturday in their hometown, just days after the pair died in a car crash that shocked the football world. Jota, 28, and Andre Silva, 25, were killed on Thursday after their vehicle veered off a motorway in northwestern Spain and became engulfed in flames, a week after the Portugal forward had got married. Just hours before the accident, Jota had posted a video of his June 22 wedding to partner Rute Cardoso, with whom he shared three children. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Bank Owned Properties For Sale In Cideng (Prices May Surprise You) Foreclosed Homes | Search ads Search Now Undo Football stars joined family and friends at the funeral in his hometown of Gondomar, near Porto and conducted by the bishop of Porto. A number of teammates from the national side, including Bernardo Silva, Bruno Fernandes, Danilo Pereira and Joao Felix, as well as coach Roberto Martinez attended, though national skipper Cristiano Ronaldo was not present. Live Events Liverpool Virgil van Dijk bore a garlanded wreath of red flowers in the form of a Liverpool shirt bearing Jota's number 20. Friday evening had seen Van Dijk, several players including Liverpool's Uruguay international Darwin Nunez and Liverpool coach Arne Slot meet with Jota's family and attend a wake for the deceased brothers. Among those who came to offer their condolences were a childhood friend, Portuguese President Marcelo Rebelo de Sousa, Prime Minister Luis Montenegro, Jota's agent Jorge Mendes and Porto club president Andre Villas-Boas. Jota formerly played with Porto. "Football is truly in mourning. Diogo was an icon of the talent Portuguese football represents," said football federation chief Pedro Proenca. Close family and friends including the parents paid their respects at Friday's wake first, with the grandfather aided by two others to help him enter the chapel. Friday night, British rock band Oasis played their song "Live Forever" in tribute to Jota at a concert in Cardiff marking a return to touring after 16 years. 'Rest in peace' Mourners arrived carrying wreaths of flowers, some sobbing audibly, before the wake was opened to members of the public. The death of the Portugal international and his brother has triggered an outpouring of emotion in football, and beyond. Liverpool opened a book of condolences and lowered flags to half-mast, with dozens of supporters laying a sea of flowers, balloons, Jota shirts, and scarves with the message "Rest in peace Diogo Jota", outside Anfield. At the Diogo Jota football academy, close to Gondomar SC where the ex-Porto and Atletico Madrid player took his first steps in the game, well-wishers created a memorial with flowers, scarves, candles and shirts. "Thank you, Diogo Jota," read a child's handwritten message. Pedro Neves, who was friends with Jota at school in Gondomar, said he "will remember him as someone who was very friendly, very courteous, who loved everyone, who always had a smile on his face". "He left us too young, it's not fair. But that's how life is sometimes," Neves, 31, told AFP. Former Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp, who brought Jota to the Reds in 2020, has said he was "heartbroken" while the club spoke of an "unimaginable loss". Slot, who succeeded Klopp last year at Anfield, said everyone associated with the club owed it to Jota to "stand together and be there for one another". Jota was remembered at the Club World Cup in the United States on Friday, with a one-minute silence held at the quarter-final between Brazil's Fluminense and Saudi Arabia's Al Hilal in Orlando. A minute's silence was similarly held at women's Euro 25 matches. Portuguese and UK media reported Jota was driving to the northern Spanish port of Santander to take a ferry to England where Liverpool were due to start training on Friday, avoiding a flight on medical advice after a recent lung operation. Liverpool's Egyptian striker Mohamed Salah said the death of his teammate had left him "frightened" to return to the club as the Premier League champions postponed the return of some players for pre-season training. bur-tsc/mdm/nr-cw/yad
