Ditching wearing luxurious couture on the Cannes red carpet in 2024, she became the first attendee to create flutter with her own design and instantly rose to success in the Indian influencer industry.
Enjoying a following of millions on social media for all the right reasons, Nancy Tyagi sewed her way back to the Cannes Film Festival this year, leaving the internet in awe yet again. The internet dubbed her as 'The doll of Cannes 2025', as she created a stunning silver gown featuring a plunging neckline, corseted bodice frame, and structured detailing from her midriff decorated with charming sequins.

With rose florets on the skirt with a multi-layered tulle skirt attached to the hemline, this figure-snatching showcase was teamed with a roaring headpiece on the back. She quickly styled the gown with statement-making jewels, including dangling earrings having emerald-cut stones and a glittering stack of rings, with bold silver-shaded nails.
From Uttar Pradesh to Cannes 2024: Fashion influencer Nancy Tyagi's triumph on the red carpet
Tying her hair in a sleek centre-parted twisted bun, she opted for smoky eyes, winged eyeliner, feathered eyebrows, mascara-adorned lashes, and glowing highlighter with a brown lip shade and neatly balanced the overall glam show.

The UP-based fashion influencer got her big break last year when she made waves at the 77th Cannes Film Festival, where she designed her own red carpet gown. Creating a mesmerising grand ensemble in a mere 30 days, her attention to detail and determination with creative power made her receive a spot on Forbes India's top digital influencer list for 2024.
Receiving several other accolades, including 'Disruptor of the Year' and 'The Fashion Favourite Heritage Icon of the Year' at the National Creators Award last year, she quickly became the subject of interest in fashion circles, not for the glam or grandeur, but for her creative energy, focus, and hard work. With social media noting her grace and talent everywhere, her couture-level drama is impossible to miss.

In a surprising and funny reveal, former NBA player Dwyane Wade opened up about a moment when he totally lost his cool. The retired star, known for staying calm under pressure, recently shared the one time he couldn't hold back his excitement - and it had nothing to do with basketball. Dwyane Wade recalls shouting at Bellamy Young at a 2013 Hollywood event On July 8, Dwyane Wade shared a fun story during his appearance on Today with Jenna & Friends. He told host Jenna Bush Hager about an unexpected celebrity moment that happened back in 2013 at a Hollywood event in Los Angeles.

He remembered being tired and ready to go home. His shoes were uncomfortable, and he was done for the night. But then he looked across the room and saw Bellamy Young, the actress who played Mellie Grant on the TV show Scandal.

He didn't plan to say anything. It just came out. 'I just screamed it. I didn't even know that was in me,' Wade said, laughing. To his surprise, Bellamy Young heard him. She turned around, smiled, and walked over to chat. Union was ready to leave, but Wade wasn't. He was too excited to meet one of his favorite characters. He explained that he's more into characters than celebrities. 'When you're watching shows and connecting with characters, it feels personal,' he said.

R Madhavan Opens Up On 'RHTDM' Toxic Label: 'Name One Actor Who Hasn't Played Such Role'
Last Updated: The 2001 cult film has faced flak over the years for portraying toxic masculinity through its lead character, Maddy. R Madhavan, who is currently promoting his upcoming film Aap Jaisa Koi alongside Fatima Sana Shaikh, recently addressed criticism surrounding his iconic romantic drama Rehnaa Hai Tere Dil Mein (RHTDM). The 2001 cult film has faced flak over the years for portraying toxic masculinity through its lead character, Maddy. In a recent interview, Madhavan acknowledged the critique but urged viewers to consider the broader cinematic context. Speaking to HTCity, Madhavan said, 'If you look back at any Hindi film or film hero, you'll find that he is completely flawed. Because that's part of the way Indian culture has been represented. There's nobody, there's no actor in the Hindi film industry whose one film or the other is not toxic masculinity. Don't take only Rehnaa Hai Tere Dil Mein; take any film before that. Any hero who has slapped a woman on the set or in the story is toxic." The Dhurandhar actor continued, 'Name one actor who has not done that or any actor who's abused a woman. So if you look at it in retrospect, then you're going to confuse yourself completely. What are the circumstances under which that guy fell in love?" Madhavan pointed out how, in earlier times, especially in small towns and villages, the lack of digital communication meant people met during social gatherings. He explained that if a man were to see a woman on a train and want to approach her with honest intentions, today's standards might label even innocent gestures as inappropriate. 'If he keeps a letter the woman gives, it is considered creepy," he noted, suggesting that the framework for interpreting such actions needs to evolve with time. The actor concluded with a thought-provoking remark: 'So, we have to change our understanding of what masculinity is right now." First Published:

R Madhavan defends Rehnaa Hai Tere Dil Mein from misogyny debate: ‘Every Hindi film hero has slapped a woman on the set'
R Madhavan, who is currently promoting his upcoming film Aap Jaisa Koi alongside Fatima Sana Shaikh, has addressed the long-standing criticism around toxic masculinity in Hindi films. The actor also responded to the continued discourse surrounding his cult classic Rehnaa Hai Tere Dil Mein (RHTDM), which in recent years has been called out for promoting problematic male behaviour. In a recent interview with Hindustan Times, Madhavan shared his thoughts on the portrayal of flawed male characters and urged audiences to view older films within the social and cultural context in which they were made. 'Every Hindi film hero is flawed' 'If you look back at any Hindi film or film hero, you'll find that he is completely flawed,' Madhavan said. 'That's part of the way Indian culture has been represented. There's no actor in the Hindi film industry whose one film or the other is not toxic masculinity.' Using RHTDM as a reference point, he added, 'Don't take only Rehnaa Hai Tere Dil Mein; take any film before that.

The Dhokha Round D Corner actor went on to reflect on how older films mirrored the socio-cultural norms of the time. He spoke about a time before mobile phones, especially in rural settings, where social functions were often the only way men and women could meet. He added, 'If a guy sees a woman on a train and wants to approach her with noble intentions, what is the way to do that? If he keeps a letter she gave, it's considered creepy. So, we have to change our understanding of what masculinity is right now.' R Madhavan's Charming New Avatar Goes Viral Madhavan says perception of masculinity must evolve with time Concluding his thoughts, Madhavan acknowledged that masculinity, as a concept, has evolved and must continue to be redefined. However, he suggested that critiquing older characters through today's lens without considering the societal context may lead to oversimplified conclusions. Aap Jaisa Koi, his upcoming film with Fatima Sana Shaikh, reportedly explores themes like emotional abuse, gender roles, and how masculinity manifests in relationships. The film is expected to bring a more layered and contemporary take on these complex issues.
