Olivia Jade models sexy backless dress as she hits party ALONE amid Jacob Elordi split rumors
The influencer, 25, who goes professionally by Olivia Jade, looked very much like her mother, actress Lori Loughlin, 60, as she showcased her fit form in a little black dress with a plunging back at the David Yurman after party celebrating the opening of his Miami store opening.
The social media personality kept her accessories simple, wearing one of the jeweler's long gold chains down her back and a pair of gold hoop earrings.
Olivia displayed her toned legs in a pair of strappy open toe heels.
Her makeup was natural looking with a neutral red lip and her long, blonde locks were styled in a loose updo.
The model has been enjoying time on a solo trip to the South Florida area, sparking rumors there might be some trouble between her and longtime boyfriend Jacob Elordi, 27.
The Australian actor recently wrapped work on the upcoming romantic drama Wuthering Heights, with Margot Robbie and directed by Emerald Fennel.
Elordi stars as the dark and moody Heathcliff.
'The performances from everyone — it's breathtaking,' he told Deadline.
'It's an incredible romance. It's a true epic. It's visually beautiful. The script is beautiful. The costumes are incredible.'
The Euphoria star has been promoting his series The Narrow Road to the Deep North.
Elordi stars as doctor taken prisoner by the Japanese in World War II who is forced to help build a railway in Burma.
To accurately portray a prisoner of war, the hunky star lost about 20 pounds.
'We had six weeks to shed all the weight and we got to do it together' he told ETalk about the experience with his fellow castmates.
The studio made sure they did it safely. 'We had a great crew of nutritionists and trainers around us,' adding that the experience was 'more psychological than physical.'
He said the diet helped put him in 'the headspace' to portray the grim conditions faced by prisoners of war.
The five-part series is based on the novel by Richard Flannigan.
The Narrow Road to the Deep North debuted April 18 on on Amazon Prime.

YES I still (stupidly) believe in love!!!', Kath captioned the post of four black and white photo booth style images, kissing and cuddling with Tilly. Fans were quick to congratulate Kate, though the seemingly subtle dig towards the JoJo drama in the caption where Kate said 'stupidly' didn't appear to go unnoticed. 'Happy for you both, just glad to see you happy,' one fan wrote. A second boldly added: 'Upgradeeeeeeeee'. A third chimed in: 'The happy ending you deserve (and we all wanted!). The Australian content creator dated the former Dance Moms celeb for a short period of time before JoJo called it quits, leading Kath to admit they were in a 'dark place' due to the breakup.

Spotify CEO bankrolls AI military warfare while musicians walk away
Spotify, despite its ubiquity, has never been looked upon kindly by artists. The music streaming giant has spent years paying musicians by the fraction of a penny, covertly adding AI-generated and in-house commissioned songs to its playlists, and writing the rules as it sees fit on how its royalty system pays out. But now, CEO Daniel Ek has given the music world yet another reason to ditch the platform – this time, by pouring millions into playing business with high-tech war. Last week, Australian psych-rockers King Gizzard & the Lizard Wizard yanked their entire catalog off Spotify, posting a blunt message on Instagram: 'We can't support a platform that profits from destruction'. They're not alone. A growing number of artists are cutting ties with Spotify after learning that Ek's investment firm, Prima Materia, is bankrolling Helsing, a German tech startup building AI systems for military drones and warfare. Read more: This extreme metal album blew up over a weekend – now it's accused of being AI Ek's investment firm first started their bankroll of Helsing in 2021, and recent reports from the Financial Times reveal they've just pumped in another €600 million. The musicians scraping by, and seeing paltry returns from their popularity on Spotify, are probably wondering what it's all for, other than fuelling the terrifying next generation of warfare. Truthfully, it will take a Taylor Swift or a Drake pulling out of the platform to cause any movement. Swift had previously taken her music off Spotify between 2014 to 2017, enraged by the bum deal offered to her through its royalty system. But in those years, Spotify was not quite the omnipresent juggernaut it is now – its huge gain in popularity in those years highlighted where music consumption was heading, but the total enmeshment between the major digital streaming services and the music industry was not quite yet complete. The idea of Swift removing her music from the platform would be much more radical now, but also much less likely. Many artists and projects removing themselves from Spotify are independent musicians, with sizeable enough audiences, but independent all the same. King Gizzard & the Lizard Wizard are the biggest, averaging 1.5 million listeners a month on the platform, but the vast structure of such a space means their exclusion is negligible in the long run. Same could be said for the other artists leading the charge against Spotify. Acclaimed indie acts like Xiu Xiu and Deerhoof have joined the boycott, but their influence on the trajectory the platform takes shakes out to even less. Read more: The internet was my favourite thing in the world – now it just fills me with dread Still, musicians are boycotting Spotify, knowing all the risks to their own careers that it brings. The risk is simply worth it for them when trying to sleep soundly at night. Deerhoof made a scathing statement, equating their streaming revenue profits directly to the death toll of war. ''Daniel Ek uses $700 million of his Spotify fortune to become chairman of AI battle tech company' was not a headline we enjoyed reading this week,' read their statement. 'We don't want our music killing people. We don't want our success being tied to AI battle tech.' These artists know their boycotts won't touch Spotify financially, but the moral grace of taking a stand outweighs any financial loss. If musicians are squeezing for pennies in the streaming economy, then at least they might as well not be blood pennies. Spotify came onto the scene touting itself as a champion of artists, that the ease and use of streaming would inevitably democratise the process of music distribution. It once positioned its public image on this basis. But that has never been the case. Its business model has always prioritised growth and returns over dealing with anything close to fair artistic compensation. And with its CEO diverting hundreds of millions into advanced military AI technology, the disconnect between its image and its financial incentives has become too hard to ignore, too much of an ethical red line for any silence. Read more: Can we pass a law banning the sale of Highland cow AI art? For now, the boycott remains symbolic. Without major label artists with industry clout joining in, Spotify's bottom line will remain steady. But the growing discontent highlights the deeper issue of the music industry's reliance on these platforms, how they are now the only game in town worth playing, and how artists can be held at mercy over any basic ethical concerns they might have. For those musicians staying, the dilemma remains. Can they justify supporting a platform that funnels money into military AI, even if leaving means opting out of the biggest platform for their music? Either way, the conversation has begun, and it's a snowballing that the music industry will eventually not be able to ignore.

UK viewers can now watch 'gripping' movie about jaw-dropping true story for free
A movie re-telling the incredible rescue of the Wild Boars junior football team from the Tham Luang cave in Thailand is now streaming for free. Released in 2022, Thirteen Lives was directed by Ron Howard and followed the efforts to save 12 teenage boys and their assistant coach after they ventured into a cave and were trapped by floodwaters in 2018. The group were stuck for two weeks, with an international rescue effort involving as many as 10,000 people including 100 divers, undertaken to save them. Some of those credited with helping to save the boys included British civilian divers – Rick Stanton and John Volanthen. In the movie they were played by Viggo Mortensen and Colin Farrell, with Joel Edgerton also playing Australian cave diver Richard Harris. The film – which holds an 85% rating on Rotten Tomatoes – was praised for its portrayal of 'courage and survival'. After initially being released on Amazon Prime, this week it was also added to BBC iPlayer. To view this video please enable JavaScript, and consider upgrading to a web browser that supports HTML5 video 'Thirteen Lives is an affecting look at one of the most incredible events of the past decade,' ScreenRant wrote in its review. 'A masterful piece of humanistic cinema that also doubles as a heart-stopping adventure,' FilmInk shared. 'Even now, years later, that level of teamwork is breathtaking, and Howard's choice to chronicle those efforts gives Thirteen Lives its own kind of staying power,' The Hollywood Reporter added. Another review said it was a 'riveting depiction of a daring, foolhardy, inspired rescue'. Meanwhile viewers said it was 'inspiring', 'deeply moving' and a 'powerful examination of true heroism'. Discussing the film at the time of its release, Mortensen and Farrell praised the 'selfless' and 'multifaceted' effort to rescue the boys, with the former also speaking about the 'crucial' need to have the divers on set to supervise. 'Whenever you're underwater [in] caves, it's dangerous,' he shared. 'So, I think all the actors, we listened very carefully to what they were showing and telling us and watched what they did very carefully and everybody worked hard. 'Everybody pulled together… and that reflected the real rescue and that it was a very selfless, team-oriented effort.' Meanwhile Farrell spoke about the movie being a 'great gift' for him to be a part of. 'I've done various things in my career but to be part of something that… in a time where the world seems to be living under greater and greater division, was really about these different people from different nationalities, different cultural backgrounds coming together for a common purpose, and one that was so terrifying, it was just a great gift,' he said. Over three days – between July 8 and 10, 2018 – all 12 boys and their coach Ekkaphon Kanthawong were rescued from the cave. However, despite the incredible result – two men had died while the rescue had been underway. Royal Thai Navy SEAL Saman Kunan, 37, died of asphyxiation during an attempted rescue on July 6 while returning to a staging base in the cave after delivering diving cylinders to the trapped group. More Trending The following year, in December 2019, rescue diver and Thai Navy SEAL Beirut Pakbara died of a blood infection contracted during the operation. The movie was dedicated to them both. Tragically the captain of the team, Duangphet Phromthep, died by suicide aged 17 in 2023 after moving to England on a football scholarship. Thirteen Lives is streaming on BBC iPlayer. Got a story?
