He also shared Benny Blanco had attended his intimate wedding with Cherry Seaborn in 2018. Ed Sheeran and Benny Blanco's friendship has come a long way as the duo collaborated on many songs in the past.
In April this year, Blanco appeared on the Table Manners with Jessie and Lennie Ware podcast, and shared his wedding plans, "We haven't figured out anything in our wedding yet. The only thing I've said straight up, as a part of the food, is that I want Jewish cook and food writer Jake Cohen to do the challah. That's all I care about. He makes the best challah I've ever had."

BBC apologises for ‘high risk' Bob Vylan's Glastonbury performance: ‘Offensive and deplorable'

The BBC has issued a formal apology for allowing the 'high risk' act of British rap punk duo Bob Vylan to perform live at the Glastonbury Festival despite internal warnings. The broadcaster, which aired the controversial performance on its platforms, described it as 'offensive and deplorable behaviour' related to antisemitism, Variety reported. Bob Vylan perform on the West Holts Stage, during the Glastonbury Festival at Worthy Farm in Somerset. England, Saturday, June 28, 2025. (AP) Bob Vylan recently came into the spotlight after frontman Bobby Vylan led a crowd at the festival to chant 'death, death' to the Israeli Defence Forces (IDF), amid heightened tensions between Israel and Iran. On Thursday, BBC director-general Tim Davie addressed the controversy in an internal memo to staff members. 'I deeply regret that such offensive and deplorable behaviour appeared on the BBC and want to say sorry – to our audience and to all of you, but in particular to Jewish colleagues and the Jewish community,' he said, per Variety. Due to the incident, several key changes have been made by the broadcaster to its live streaming protocols for music events. The British rap punk duo has now been classified as 'high risk' after a risk assessment process was applied to all the acts at the Glastonbury Festival. In total, seven performers have been added to this category. The acts have been deemed suitable for live streaming with 'appropriate mitigations.' Acknowledging failures in the compliance process, the BBC statement noted that prior to the festival, they made a decision to mitigate compliance risks in real time on the live stream, via the use of language or content warnings. However, it was 'clearly not the case,' it added. During the performance, livestreaming was being monitored based on the agreed protocols, as warnings appeared twice on the stream. The editorial team decided not to cut the feed even after escalated concerns. BBC has now termed it as 'an error.' After getting informed about the incident, Davie, who was present at the festival as part of visiting BBC staff, immediately asked the teams to prevent the performance from getting aired in further coverage. The performance was removed from BBC iPlayer and Sounds, but the live feed was active until 8 PM (local time), according to reports. BBC chair Samir Shah has also issued a statement and apologised to viewers and listeners, especially the Jewish community, for allowing 'Bob Vylan to express unconscionable antisemitic views live on the BBC.' FAQs: 1. What action has been taken against Bob Vylan? The group is being investigated by police in connection with the matter. 2. How did the US respond to Bob Vylan's controversial performance? US Deputy Secretary of State Christopher Landau earlier said that the US State Department has "revoked" visas for Bob Vylan members for their "hateful tirade at Glastonbury". 3. What is IDF? The Israel Defense Forces, established in 1948, refers to the armed forces of Israel. It comprises the army, navy, and air force.

Squid Game 3 director Hwang Dong Hyuk reveals Leonardo DiCaprio as 'first pick' for Lee Jung Jae role in US version

Following Squid Game 3's massive global success, an American spinoff series might be on the cards. Addressing the speculation, director Hwang Dong Hyuk revealed his preferred cast for the protagonist role of the US series. Citing the reason for his choice, he shed light on the previous buzz around Leonardo DiCaprio's cameo in the Netflix survival series. Hwang Dong Hyuk's plans for Squid Game America Recently, the Squid Game 3 cast and director sat for a post-release interview with Vanity Fair, which was released on YouTube on July 1. Lee Jung Jae, Lee Byung Hun, Kang Ae Sim, Im Si Wan, Park Sung Hoon Jo Yuri and director Hwang Dong Hyuk had light-hearted conversations with the host. During then, Hwang Dong Hyuk discussed the possibility of a US adaptation of Squid Game, revealing his envisioned cast. Hwang Dong Hyuk's pick as main cast for Squid Game America At first Hwang Dong Hyuk asked the Squid Game 3 cast to guess the possible actor he had in mind. Lee Byung Hun suggested Adam Sandler, but Im Si Wan correctly guessed Leonardo DiCaprio. The Squid Game 3 creator admitted he was indeed his "first pick" and added, "We had a lot of rumors about him [DiCaprio] — whether he will make a cameo and such." He probably meant that keeping up with the viewers expectations and ongoing buzz, the Titanic star would be a perfect fit to be casted in Squid Game's US version. Hwang Dong Hyuk further revealed that he would want Lionardo to play the role of Lee Jung Jae's Song Gi Hun, when asked about the same by Im Si Wan. Explaining the reason, he said, 'If he [DiCaprio] were to do it, I think he would do well as a player. Lately he's gotten good at loser roles like Gi Hun's.' Is Squid Game America confirmed? Creator Hwang Dong Hyuk refuted the news regarding Squid Game America being scheduled to begin filming in December 2025, with acclaimed director David Fincher. However, he didn't deny the possibility of the spin-off series, stating, 'If I were officially asked, I'd seriously consider it.'

Doja Cat reveals what she doesn't want to become

Los Angeles: Rapper and singer Doja Cat has made a vow. The rapper has determined to avoid being a "little monster" who "just wants success". The 'Paint the Town Red' singer and rapper is gearing up to drop her fifth studio album, 'Vie', but if the record, or another of her other future projects, fail to perform as well as she hopes she doesn't want to be "up in arms and upset", reports 'Female First UK'. She told V Magazine, "What I want to avoid is that little monster that just wants success. I want to focus more on, How does the mix sound? Do I even need these instruments here? Do I need to recut this verse?'. She further mentioned, "It's how things sound that makes the music worth listening to. I would not be an artist if I didn't care, right? If for any reason a project of mine does a little less good than the last one, I don't want to be up in arms and upset about it. I want to embrace that'. As per 'Female First UK', the 29-year-old star also admitted she is "surprised" by her vocal ability nowadays, insisting she "could not sing" before. She added, "Sometimes I'm surprised by what I can do now, because I could not f****** sing. I have a lot more knowledge of how to use my voice as an instrument, more than I ever have in my life'. Earlier this year, Doja - whose real name is Amala Dlamini - performed James Bond song Diamonds are Forever at the Academy Awards, as part of a 007 tribute. However, some of the performers, including the Streets hitmaker, were trolled for their renditions. Afterwards, Doja admitted she felt "scared" signing the tune on such a big stage, and said the "nerves got to (her)". She wrote on Instagram, "Thanks to the Academy Awards and Vanity Fair for having me. I never get to sing like that and what I did was brave and scary as f*** for me'. 'I know a lot of people didn't like it but a lot of people did and I feel good that I pushed myself. The song is a classic and I put a lot of work into it, but the nerves got to me and a b***h hit some flats. I can't wait to do something like that again. What a blessing that was. I feel amazing about the whole thing. Bye', she added.
