The silhouette of the frock included a slightly cinched waist for added definition. The royal, who commemorated 25 years on the throne in June 2024, opted for minimal jewelry for her look, save for a pair of statement earrings. She wore a pair of pointed-toe pumps courtesy of Dior as the finishing touch of her sartorial statement.
While attending the summit, Queen Rania of Jordan met with Pope Francis. She also delivered sobering remarks regarding the global need for better care and resources for children. 'Whether they are missing their two front teeth or have lost limbs to war wounds, every child has an equal claim to our protection and care,' Queen Rania said.
Queen Rania has a unique distinction among other royal women for merging occasion dressing with distinct designer labels. In June 2024, Queen Rania and her husband, King Abdullah II, journeyed to Paris for a visit with France's President Emmanuel Macron and French First Lady Brigitte Macron.
The royal opted for a design courtesy of Elie Saab. The dress featured a two-tone color scheme in contrasting shades of black and forest green. The look also featured a pleated skirt and short sleeves, along with gathered fabric around the neckline for an added textural element. Queen Rania carried a purse by Elie Saab as well in a shade of light green. Her white, pointed toe pumps were designed by Jimmy Choo.

Cooked: Celebrated Chef exits new venture after allegedly balking at free food for influencer because she wasn't famous enough
A prominent San Francisco chef threw in the apron at his newly opened cafe after allegedly belittling a TikTok influencer during a tense exchange over her follower count aired out in a viral video. The incident unfolded Wednesday at Kis Cafe in Hayes Valley, when 'micro-influencer' @itskarlabb described how she had pre-arranged a collab with the restaurant's team and showed up early to film content, according to a video she posted to her platform. 3 Influencer @itskarlabb was allegedly belittled by top chef Luke Sung over her supposedly low follower count, leaving her running from his new California restaurant in tears. itskarlabb/tiktok The influencer, known as Karla, claimed that a man — later identified as celebrated James Beard Award-nominated chef and co-owner Luke Sung — questioned her 15,000-follower count and told staff it was a 'mistake' to invite an influencer so small. 'I know they're talking about me, because I can hear them saying 'TikTok, views, followers' ,' she said in a later video, which has racked up more than 20 million views. The influencer said that when she introduced herself, Sung grilled her over whether she had researched the restaurant, a wine bar serving small bites. She insisted she knew the menu and the vibe, but Sung disagreed and began scrolling through her TikTok feed at full volume within earshot, the influencer said. 'After scrolling like, two times, he says to me that he doesn't think my videos are at the level which he wants his restaurant represented,' she recalled. 'It seemed like he was insinuating that my followers would not be able to afford to eat at this restaurant.' 3 Sung couldn't take the heat after the pair's alleged exchange went viral and left his new venture. San Francisco Chronicle via Getty Images Sung then reportedly asked, 'Do you know who I am?' and told Karla he was a two-time James Beard Award finalist and that his daughter is Big Apple vlogger, Isa Sung, who has 600,000 TikTok followers. He also dismissed the influencer's cooking videos she posted to her platform, dissing them as 'homey,' Karla said. The belittling exchange left her in tears, she said. 'I told him I felt disrespected and didn't want to collaborate anymore,' the influencer said. Karla's follower count has since skyrocketed to more than 350,000 since she shared the story on TikTok. The influencer said she wants to 'be an advocate for micro influencers' who don't receive as many handouts. 'You don't need to have a million followers to be respected or feel like you're making a difference,' she said. 3 Kis Cafe, which opened in May, announced that Sung had left as chef and co-owner. FOX By Friday, Kis Cafe's was getting cooked on Yelp, where its rating plunged from four to five stars to just over two stars, and reviews for 'Isa '– a 'pioneering' Cal-French restaurant that Sung previously opened and named after his influencer daughter — grew with haters lambasting the chef for his behavior. Kis Cafe, which opened in May, soon announced that Sung had left as a chef and co-owner, later clarifying he had done so of his 'own accord' and was not technically fired. 'Our chef's behavior was unacceptable, and he is no longer a part of the team,' Kis Cafe wrote in an Instagram post Thursday. The restaurant said it has now temporarily closed to 'restructure.' 'We want to create a space that's welcoming and respectful to everyone. In this instance, we failed to do so,' Kis Cafe said in a statement.

Sabrina Carpenter's New Single Soars To New Peaks At Radio
Sabrina Carpenter's 'Manchild' rises on three of Billboard's radio charts, reaching No. 15 on the ... More Radio Songs list and earning the singer her fifth Adult Pop Airplay top 10. LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA - FEBRUARY 02: Sabrina Carpenter performs onstage during the 67th Annual GRAMMY Awards at Arena on February 02, 2025 in Los Angeles, California. (Photo byfor The Recording Academy) Sabrina Carpenter scored one of the biggest breakouts of 2024 with her Short n' Sweet full-length. The album produced some of the most infectious pop tunes in recent memory, including "Espresso," "Taste," and "Please Please Please," and it finally turned the singer-songwriter — who had spent years releasing music, just waiting to pop — into a household name and a Grammy winner. Carpenter isn't putting her foot on the brake or coasting on her success. Her next album, Man's Best Friend, is expected to drop in just over a month, and the superstar recently released "Manchild," the lead single from the upcoming project. Even as the tune begins to decline slightly on a number of Billboard charts, radio has come to the rescue, ensuring that "Manchild" continues to rise on at least a few tallies. "Manchild" Climbs the Radio Charts At the moment, "Manchild" appears on half a dozen U.S.-based Billboard rankings. It declines on three of them and rises on the three. Not coincidentally, the trio of tallies where Carpenter's latest track is on the rise are all radio rosters, as it seems there is strong interest in keeping Carpenter's voice on the airwaves. "Manchild" hits a new peak on the Radio Songs tally, where it jumps to No. 15. Carpenter also pushes the track to never-before-seen highs on two of Billboard's three pop radio lists. It lifts one space to No. 5 on the Pop Airplay ranking and breaks into the top 10 for the first time on the Adult Pop Airplay roster, climbing from No. 11 to No. 9. Sabrina Carpenter Lands Fifth Adult Pop Airplay Top 10 Carpenter scores her fifth career top 10 on the Adult Pop Airplay chart as "Manchild" reaches No. 9. In doing so, the song ties the peak position of "Please Please Please." Three other tunes — "Espresso," "Feather," and "Taste" — climbed higher, with the former spending several turns at No. 1, while the others stalled at Nos. 4 and 7, respectively. Sales and Streams are Falling Radio is certainly doing its part, as streams and sales of "Manchild" are declining — though that's not unexpected for a pop track that's been out for more than a month. This time around, the cut suffers its steepest dip on the Streaming Songs tally, falling from No. 9 to No. 21. It also lands in the same position on the Adult Contemporary Airplay roster, the third of Billboard's pop radio charts. "Manchild" slips to No. 13 on the Hot 100, though it may rebound in the coming frames, especially as Carpenter ramps up promotion for Man's Best Friend.
