US stadium facing heat over kicking out soccer fan for wearing MAGA hat
'This guy, if he goes to any NFL game this year, nobody is even going to bat an eye, they'll probably celebrate him,' Mr Stein told Sky News host Rita Panahi.
'The fact that this is a soccer game, which is one of the least popular sports in our country, they're kicking him out, it's really sad.'
'They need to stop alienating people, especially over half of the American people who vote for Donald Trump.'

‘Changed the language of what art is': Huge balloon sculpture for national gallery
A playful balloon sculpture, part of an iconic series created by controversial pop artist Jeff Koons, has officially joined Jackson Pollock's Blue poles in the collection of the National Gallery of Australia. Balloon Venus Dolni Vestonice (Yellow) is a 2.7-metre high yellow stainless-steel sculpture that reimagines a prehistoric fertility figure as a mirror-polished balloon. It's the first of the American artist's balloon series to enter the collection of an Australian cultural institution and gallery director Nick Mitzevich says he's more than ready for a public debate over whether the sculpture qualifies as art. 'There are artists in each generation that revolutionises what art is, that challenges people,' Mitzevich said. 'Jackson Pollock re-thought what painting was. In the '60s and '70s, Andy Warhol re-thought what art could be, that everyday objects could be art. 'Louise Bourgeois revolutionised the way she made work with her gigantic amazing spiders, for example. What Jeff Koons has done from the 1980s, he has changed the language of what art is. History shows these revolutionaries become the middle ground and the reference points for each generation and I believe that of Jeff Koons.' Koons melds pop art, conceptual art and minimalism, employing modern materials and highly polished surfaces to riff on everything from household appliances such as the vacuum cleaner to inflatable animals. He is best known in Australia as the creator of Puppy, a 12-metre-high terrier made from 60,000 flowering plants and 55,000 tonnes of soil which was installed in the forecourt of the Museum of Contemporary Art.

Lohan and Lee Curtis hit red carpet for 'freaky' film
Hollywood stars Jamie Lee Curtis and Lindsay Lohan have graced an Australian red carpet for the premiere of Disney's Freakier Friday. The sequel comes more than two decades after the body-swap comedy Freaky Friday became a global hit. Lee Curtis and Lohan reunite as Tess and Anna Coleman, years after the pair first endured an identity crisis in the 2003 film. Anna has a daughter and soon-to-be stepdaughter of her own, and is navigating the challenges of merging families when the story gets freakier. Directed by Nisha Ganatra, the movie is based on the novel by American composer and screenwriter Mary Rodgers, published in 1972. The original film earned Disney $US160 million ($A248 million) worldwide, well surpassing its production budget of about $US26 million ($A40 million). The sequel marks Lohan's return to Hollywood after she was absent for most of the 2010s before her appearance in Falling For Christmas in 2022. A social media post announcing her return with Lee Curtis in Freakier attracted more than one million likes. Lohan rose to fame in her role as identical twins in the 1998 film The Parent Trap. Freakquel co-star Lee-Curtis is an actor, producer, and children's author, best known for her breakout role in the 1978 rendition of Halloween and its six sequels. Lohan and Lee Curtis attended the Australian premiere at Bondi Junction in Sydney on Tuesday, following multiple appearances at premieres across the world including London, New York and Mexico City. The film will be released in Australian cinemas on Thursday. Hollywood stars Jamie Lee Curtis and Lindsay Lohan have graced an Australian red carpet for the premiere of Disney's Freakier Friday.
