Nick Cannon: 'Bre Tiesi is an amazing mom and amazing businesswoman'

Nick Cannon says Bre Tiesi is an 'an amazing mom and amazing businesswoman'.
The 44-year-old father-of-12 shares son Legendary Love, three, with the Selling Sunset star and Nick is proud of how she has handled herself on the Netflix reality TV show.
He told PEOPLE: 'She's built for this. She's a rockstar. She's a superstar. She's an amazing mom, amazing businesswoman and truly like a boss.'
'I mean when you see her on Selling Sunset and even how she moves on her own, you know, it's content, [but] it's not a façade. She don't need [advice], I need to get some advice from her.'
Nick shares his 12 children with six different women, including Bre, 34, and his former wife Mariah Carey, 56, and his and Bre's unconventional relationship has caused some issues with her castmates on Selling Sunset.
Her co-star Chelsea Lazkani said on season six: 'I find Nick Cannon and Bre's relationship rather off-putting. Ultimately the way I live my life is very different to her as a Christian, so I don't know if we will ever be super, super close friends."
Chelsea also told Entertainment Tonight: 'I think she wants to kill me, and I want to stay alive for a very long time. So, you know, I just think I'll keep my distance from her.
'I mean, I get it. She doesn't like me. And some of the things I said were very hurtful. So, I completely acknowledge that.'
Bre previously told PEOPLE: 'You know, as I said on the show, I'm perfectly fine in a room with a bunch of b****** that hate me. I could not care less. It seems more like a you problem, to be honest."

How paediatric nurse Harriet Sperling became a royal fiancee

Sperling studied at St Mary's University in Twickenham, and became an NHS nurse specialising in paediatric care at Evelina London Children's Hospital. The Princess of Wales has been a patron of the hospital since 2018. Despite finding such an admirable vocation, in a 2009 interview with the Daily Mail for an article about young women and faith, Sperling confessed that her faith had become 'dormant' when she moved to the capital. She said: 'Somehow it didn't seem relevant to my life in London, going to famous nightclubs and spending a lot of time in Ibiza during the summer. I was a real party girl.' But the end of a seven-year relationship marked a turning point: 'I went to church as I felt there was something missing.' She chose St Paul's in Onslow Square, west London, Sperling said, because of its 'intimate feel' and its active engagement with the wider community. It had brought her a sense of fulfilment and peace, she said, adding: 'I pray not only on Sunday, but all the time, often just quietly to myself.' That helped her with her job, which could be 'quite stressful and emotionally engaging'. Sperling once told a magazine she had a particular passion for 'early brain development', and in 2010 she was part of a heroic medical team that helped save the life of critically ill baby Phineas, who had been struck down by a deadly virus. Speaking in 2012, Sperling said: 'Just 20 minutes after receiving the call to collect Phineas, the retrieval team were on our way in an intensive care ambulance.' In 2012, Sperling, who was previously married to fitness instructor Antonio St John Sperling, gave birth to her own child: daughter Georgia. But, writing for Christian magazine Woman Alive in March last year, she revealed that she had brought Georgia up on her own. 'Resources were scarce and the future was uncertain,' she said. 'Yet, in the absence of material security, I discovered the strength and life that comes from true, selfless love.' She said: 'My daughter and I journeyed 10 years with only each other. I liken us to an island and it has often felt hard to imagine anyone joining that island.' However, at around this time, someone new did enter her life. Sperling reportedly met Phillips, 47, at a sporting event involving their similarly aged children. Phillips has two daughters, Savannah, 14, and Isla, 13, with his Canadian ex-wife Autumn Kelly (the pair divorced in 2021). Phillips and Sperling's public debut in May 2024 at the Badminton Horse Trials was also a family affair, attended by Phillips's daughters, his sister Zara Tindall and her husband Mike, and the Queen. It was Sperling's first time in the media spotlight, yet she appeared to take it all in her stride. A friend of Phillips told The Telegraph the pair were 'enjoying each other's company and spending time together like any normal couple', while an onlooker said of Sperling: 'She looked very happy and relaxed in his company and pleased to be shown off at one of the biggest social events in the equestrian world.' Sporting occasions played a large part in the couple's summer of love. In the June, they were spotted in the VIP tent at the Beaufort Polo Club in Gloucestershire, and that month they also attended Royal Ascot, where Sperling met the King and Queen. One year on from their first public outing, Sperling and Phillips returned to the Badminton Horse Trials, this time cheering on Zara Tindall, who was being awarded the event's Armada Dish. Sperling also joined the family at the Bahrain Grand Prix in April, where she spent time with Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie; in Wimbledon's royal box, alongside the Queen; and at the Royal Charity Polo Cup in Windsor, in support of Prince William. But it was another event that truly cemented Sperling's place as a future royal bride. In June, she made her royal carriage debut in the procession at Ascot, accompanying Phillips in carriage three. That suggested Sperling, who appears to have slotted naturally into the Firm, had been given the official seal of approval. Even so, it was a surprise on Friday when she and Phillips announced their betrothal. The news came via Hello! magazine, which published two photographs of the couple (in which Sperling showed off her diamond engagement ring, estimated by one expert to cost at least £10,000) shortly after Phillips and Sperling had spoken to the King and Queen. The choice of magazine prompted reminders of Phillips's first wedding, in 2008, when he caused controversy by selling the exclusive photographic rights to Hello! for a reported £500,000, allegedly angering the late queen, who had not been consulted in advance. The pictures marking Phillips' and Sperling's engagement, however, are said to have been taken privately and it is understood no commercial arrangement was made with Hello! or any other publication. The couple have yet to announce a date for their wedding. Leading designers will surely be champing at the bit to dress Sperling. She has won praise for the elegant way in which she mixes high street brands such as Zara with royal-approved British designers. In her engagement photos, Sperling is wearing a white cheesecloth top and skirt set by Me+Em, a home-grown label favoured by the Princess of Wales. Loading It's likely that the couple's new blended family will be highlighted in the ceremony, perhaps with their three daughters acting as bridesmaids. Savannah and Isla previously took that role at Princess Eugenie's wedding in 2018. As both an elegant figure, coolly unfazed by public duties, and a hard-working NHS nurse and single mother, Sperling is the ideal fit for a gradually modernising institution. It appears she's not just a great match for Phillips: she could be the royal family's shining new star.

KPop Demon Hunters smashes Netflix record and takes over global pop charts

If you want to spot the next big thing in pop, always follow the tween trail. Parents of under 12s knew a month ago the KPop Demon Hunters universe was primed for a pop culture takeover. Their kids are obsessed with the film, the songs, the art, the food, the outfits, the action scenes, the choreography, everything and anything KPop Demon Hunters. The Netflix film has had more than 130 million views globally since launching on June 20, becoming the most-watched animated movie ever on the streamer. The KPop Demon Hunters soundtrack claimed its fourth week at No.1 on the Australian charts this week and its songs 'Golden', 'Soda Pop', 'Your Idol', 'How It's Done', 'What it Sounds Like', 'Free' and 'Takedown' have taken up residence in the upper echelons of the singles chart. Those songs have generated a billion plays on Spotify alone and the film's fictional bands Huntr/x and Saja Boys have leapfrogged superstars BLACKPINK and BTS as the highest charting KPop groups on the US charts. Korean culture has exerted its influence on the zeigeist over the past five years with K-pop, K-dramas and K-films from BTS and Stray Kids, BLACKPINK and Twice, Squid Games and the Oscar-winning movie Parasite. But Kpop Demon Hunters has taken the phenomenon to the next level. A film not like the other ones KPop Demon Hunters is a truly original animated film - it's not a sequel or a comics adaptation or a washed-out imitation of Disney or Pixar formulas. But after its blockbuster success, you can bet there are already meetings about a sequel, TV series, stage musical and live adaptation treatment. Instead of your princesses or melodramatic animals or misunderstood kid as the main characters, you have two K-pop groups locked in a battle to save souls. The three members of Huntr/x - Rumi, Mira and Zoey - are the demon-hunting pop stars slaying their evil soul-sucking rivals, the Saja Boys led by hot guy Juni, with songs and swords. The film's Canadian-Korean co-director Maggie Kang has cleverly woven cultural touchstones throughout the film from concert glow-stick choreography to visiting the local traditional medicine clinic. Kpop Demon Hunters also pays homage to Korean folklore. Its scene-stealing tiger and magpie characters are inspired by minhwa folk art while the Saja Boys and their supernatural alter egos are loosely modelled on 'jeoseung saja,' Korea's version of the grim reaper. Kang and her co-director Chris Appelhans also wanted to create a new kind of female superhero. 'We've both wanted to see more relatable female characters, ones that are messy, act silly, make stupid faces, and we thought it would be especially refreshing to see that in the superhero space. It felt like a new take on the female superhero,' she said. All killer, no filler soundtrack The filmmakers got their music dream team on board early, wanting to fuse Kpop bangers with the traditions of theatrical musicals - without, thankfully, the characters singing dialogue. The songwriting and production credits are the who's who of Kpop chart-toppers, led by BLACKPINK producer Terry Park and his THEBLACKLABEL hit factory of writers as well as Grammy-nominated and winning producers Lindgren, Stephen Kirk, Jenna Andrews who had worked on music for K-pop artists such as BTS and Twice. The soundtrack's first single was the end credits version of 'Takedown' performed by Jeongyeon, Jihyo and Chaeyoung of girl group Twice, who just announced four arena concerts in Sydney and Melbourne in November. But the film's central song 'Golden' is proving the runaway hit, unseating Justin Bieber from No.1 on the ARIA singles chart this week and amassing more than 215 million Spotify streams over the past six weeks. Demon Hunters' executive music producer Ian Eisendrath said the filmmakers took the opposite approach to film musicals when creating the soundtrack. 'In film musicals, you are often hiring people who specialise in narrative writing,' he told Billboard. 'This was interesting because it was sort of the opposite. It was bringing in people from the pop world to write for the film, as opposed to people from the film world to write in the style of K-pop.' There's already a campaign afoot for an Oscar nomination for Best Song. Something for everyone The film isn't just a godsend for parents seeking family-friendly content. It's got the goods there with the perennial PG narrative of Rumi's struggle for self-acceptance. But it's kid cult following has quickly broadened into other creative communities. The animation style has inspired thousands of fan art and DIY costume posts while TikTok and YouTube are flooded with dance workouts and challenges and cover versions of Demon Hunters' songs. Critics have also hailed the film's comedic thread as it skewers the much-maligned K-pop training system and singing competitions and K-drama tropes.

Prince Harry denies 'physical fight' with Prince Andrew

Prince Harry has dismissed claims he once had a "physical fight" with Prince Andrew. The Duke of Sussex was alleged to have got into an altercation with his disgraced uncle - who stepped back from public duties in 2019 amid backlash from his friendship with late financier Jeffrey Epstein, who took his own life while awaiting trial for sex trafficking - back in 2013 when a "heated argument" broke out in 2013, but his representative has denied the tale. A new book, Entitled: The Rise and Fall of the House of York, alleged a row broke out over "something Andrew said before Harry's back" and escalated to the point where "punches were thrown" and Andrew was left with a bloody nose. And Andrew Lownie's tome also claimed Andrew privately questioned 40-year-old Harry's relationship with now-wife Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, branding the former actress an "opportunist" and suggesting their marriage wouldn't last. But a spokesperson for Harry told People magazine: 'I can confirm neither of those things are true. Prince Harry and Prince Andrew have never had a physical fight, nor did Prince Andrew ever make those comments about the Duchess of Sussex to Prince Harry.' The book claims there has been tension between 65-year-old Andrew and both Harry and his estranged brother Prince William, 43, for years, with the latter said to have worked to oust his uncle from Royal Lodge, the home he shares in Windsor with ex-wife Sarah Ferguson. Harry and 43-year-old Meghan left official duties in 2020 and are raising their children Prince Archie, six, and Princess Lilibet, four, in California amid estrangement from the rest of the royal family. But earlier this year, the prince admitted he is keen to reconcile with his father King Charles and brother William. He told the BBC: "I would love reconciliation with my family. There's no point in continuing to fight anymore." Snoop Dogg previously offered to play peacemaker between William and Harry. He told the Sunday Mirror newspaper: 'Harry and William, I have known for a long time now. Harry asked me to perform at William's bachelor party but I couldn't make it. Anything they want to perform at now, I am there. 'They are brothers, man. Anything that gets them in the same room and being brothers again will be worth it. Life is too short to not make things right, and if Snoop can help heal that relationship, then let's do it.'
