Teen's Reason for Missing Curfew Sparks Debate as Mom Says She's 'Blessed'

Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. A mom has gone viral after sharing her teenage daughter's surprising—and deeply spiritual—reason for missing curfew. Brittany Noll (@ 33, a pastor, from Pennsylvania, who also leads the children's and youth ministry at her local church, posted a TikTok explaining why her daughter, 14, was late getting into the car one night. The video has since racked up 1.3 million views and 153,100 likes, sparking a wave of reactions across the platform. "There's no doubt in my mind that she is being truthful. I honestly don't care if people think she was doing something otherwise because I know in my heart that I am so blessed to have a teenager involved with amazing friends," Noll told Newsweek. Noll explained that her daughter, a high school sophomore, had gone to a bonfire hosted by a fellow member of the Aletheia Club, a Christian group at her school. Noll said she dropped her daughter off with a clear plan: "I told her upon dropping her off that I needed to be in bed by 10 and that I would pick her up at 9:30.... This girl only lives about 2 miles from us." But at 9:15 p.m., her daughter asked if she could stay 15 minutes later. Noll agreed but reminded her of the 10 p.m. bedtime. When Noll pulled up at 9:42, she saw the group sitting and talking in the backyard. A few minutes later, her daughter ran out to the car, tossed in her sweater and water bottle, and said she needed to grab something quickly from inside. But the quick errand turned into another 10-minute wait. Noll admitted she was "really annoyed"—until her daughter explained what had happened. "Because one of the girls said, 'let's pray before we all leave' and during that prayer, one of the girls got carried away and was praying through the different armor of God. And it is rude to just walk away from a prayer," Noll recalled. When her daughter finally got back in the car, she apologized—and Noll couldn't help but laugh. "I actually cracked up laughing when she told me why... I have experienced long winded prayer before," she said. The TikTok community responded with a mix of humor and skepticism. "That would worry me more than underage drinking," one user joked. A split image of Brittany Noll explaining what happened when her daughter was late to be picked up.

I was a wild teenager and my daughter sounds very similar to your daughter," said Liz New. "People are seeming to not understand that when some people pray—there's no concept of time. It's almost like something else has taken over and they're just speaking to their God," said Kia. Others saw the humor and potential in the excuse. "Now I'm 20 and can't use this," said Ari. "I'm 38 and I'm using this excuse asap," added Timara. Still, some doubted the story's authenticity. Noll, however, stood firm in her belief. "For the people who are skeptical... there's nothing I can really say that will make them change their mind," she said. "I know my daughter. I have a very close relationship with her and would consider her one of my best friends. We have been through a lot together. And I know she is a believer in Christ. And that she has genuine faith and a relationship with God. So there's no doubt in my mind that she is being truthful. "I honestly don't care if people think she was doing something otherwise because I know in my heart that I am so blessed to have a teenager involved with amazing friends." As for the ride home? Noll said it was filled with meaningful conversation. "We talked about how nice it is to be with people who stir your faith," she said.

Catherine Zeta-Jones' heavy and sultry 'fox eye' makeup is a masterclass in gothic glam

Gen Z may be viralising the fox eye makeup trend with social media video tutorials galore, but one celebrity who paved the way for its newfound popularity? Catherine Zeta-Jones, who arguably coined the look in the early 90s. Trend-setter, much?! Earlier this week [30 July], Catherine attended the global premiere of Wednesday season 2 part 1, alongside a number of A-list co-stars; everyone from Joanna Lumley to Jenna Ortega was in attendance. Of course, individually, the actors looked incredible, but one thing that they cosigned was gothic, vampiric glam. I mean, hello Wednesday! Catherine's makeup look, however, was one that stood out for its sultry fox-eye feel. Would you just look at that purple-toned lip and smoky – yet very much lifed – eyeshadow? *Chef's kiss* The actor's look is reminiscent of "fox eye" makeup, a beauty trend that aims to create an elongated, lifted, and almond-shaped eye appearance – similar to the natural eye shape of a fox. It gives a more sultry, feline look, and celebrities, including Bella Hadid and Kendall Jenner, have both been at the forefront of it on social media. That said, Catherine has long been wearing eye makeup in an upward and outward style. Just look at her in her 'For All Time' music video, 1992. Simply stunning. Fox eyes aside, as mentioned, Catherine was one of many celebrities in attendance at the Wednesday premiere and to no surprise, they all went above and beyond in the gothic glam department.

Heidi Klum's lingerie dates and matching tattoos keep things hot with much younger husband

Heidi Klum shared the "spicy" secrets behind her marriage to her husband, Tom Kaulitz. The 52-year-old German-American supermodel and the 35-year-old German guitarist secretly married in February 2019, and they tied the knot a second time six months later during a wedding ceremony aboard the superyacht Christina O. off the coast of Capri, Italy. During a recent interview with People magazine, Klum opened up about the ways in which she and Kaulitz keep the spark in their marriage alive, telling the outlet shopping for lingerie is one of their favorite shared activities. "He loves sitting there, and I go into the changing room and I come out with a different outfit on," the "America's Got Talent" judge said. "He loves me in a miniskirt. He loves me in pumps. He just loves when I get all dolled up." Klum told People Kaulitz enjoys finding "different fun outfits" for her to try on during their shopping excursions. She explained that the Tokio Hotel rocker finds her attractive whether she is in full glam or sporting a more natural look. "He's not against makeup, but if I have nothing on he likes that too. He also loves when I get all dolled up," Klum said. Klum emphasized that there is "no jealousy" between her and Kaulitz. The former Victoria's Secret Angel revealed she and Kaulitz honored their commitment to each other with matching ink. She recalled that the couple personally tattooed their names on each other's bodies. "His looks much better, so I'm the better tattoo artist," she joked. "The Project Runway" host also shared that "stolen weekends," "handwritten notes" and being "present with each other" keep her relationship with Kaulitz going strong. However, Klum told People there are some secrets about their happy union that she isn't willing to divulge. "There are a tons of things that I can't talk about that we do," she said with a wink. Klum was married to hairstylist Ric Pipino from 1997 to 2002. In March 2003, Klum began dating businessman Flavio Briatore, and she announced they were expecting their first child together in December of that year. However, the two split shortly after, and Klum began dating musician Seal while pregnant with her daughter Leni. In 2005, Klum and Seal tied the knot on a beach in Mexico. The former couple welcomed sons Henry, 19, and Johan, 18, and daughter Lou, 15, and Seal adopted Leni when she was 5 years old. In 2012, Klum and Seal announced their separation, and their divorce was finalized in 2014. While speaking with People, Klum recalled that she met Kaulitz seven years ago at a friend's party. The model explained that that fateful meeting might never have happened at all because she had considered skipping the event. "I really wanted to stay home," Klum remembered, "But then I gave myself a little kick in the butt." Klum described her decision to attend the party that night as "the sliding door moment" of her life. She and Kaulitz went public with their relationship in May 2018 and announced their engagement in December of that year. Kaulitz was previously married to businesswoman Ria Sommerfeld. The former couple married in 2015 but separated a year later and finalized their divorce in 2018. Klum told People her relationship with Kaulitz symbolized a "clean slate" for her after her past romantic experiences. "[At first], I wanted to [project] what I had learned from different men I had been with … like, 'Ooh, this reminds me of something that happened, is that a flag?'" she recalled. "But Tom said, 'Don't do this to me because I'm not this person, I'm not that person. Scratch everything. I have to have a fair chance.'" Since embarking on their romance, Klum and Kaulitz have put their love for each other on full display. The two frequently pack on the PDA during red carpet appearances, and the model often shares intimate snaps and videos of herself with her spouse on social media. In August, Klum posted a photo of herself lounging topless on a beach with Kaulitz during a romantic getaway to celebrate their fifth wedding anniversary. "Celebrating our love today and every day. Happy anniversary," she wrote in the caption of her Instagram post along with a slew of heart and fire emoji. While speaking with Fox News Digital in July 2021, Klum reflected on what makes her a "good wife" to Kaulitz. "I was never really into soccer before, but because of my husband, I like it now because I see how happy it makes him," she said. "So, you have to be invested in [his likes] because, otherwise, he will just always do that on his own. "And I feel like that's what a good wife is … when you take part in the interests of your husband and vice versa." From the beginning of their relationship, Klum and Kaulitz have faced criticism over their 16-year age gap. In July 2018, Klum discussed her relationship with the musician and their age difference. "Lately, I'm being reminded more about my age by people other than myself," Klum told InStyle at the time. "My boyfriend is many years younger than me, and lots of people are questioning that and asking about it. That's really the only time when age seems to be shoved in my face and I have to give an answer for it." In August 2024, Klum told Glamour Germany she believed the negativity was "often just spitefulness." "Perhaps many people also think I've had too much luck in life," she said. "I have a great job. I get to travel the world. I can buy expensive things. And now I've also got myself such a great man. "Maybe people don't begrudge me that. Nowadays, people are rightly extremely careful about everything they say – except age shaming. People continue to criticize [in that respect]." The model told the magazine she typically responds to people's questions about the age gap in her marriage with, "How should I answer that?" "I'm 50 and no longer 20. I'm not a young girl who hasn't experienced anything yet or has no idea about life," she continued. "Time won't stand still for me, and Tom will never catch up with me. I'll always be 16 years older, and I'm aware of that." During her recent interview with People, Klum explained that she has learned a lot from her younger spouse. "When our door closes at home and when we're good, I don't really care so much what happens around us," she said. "I've learned things from my husband that I didn't know I was capable of doing. I feel like it's important to live in the moment, enjoy each other, be fair to each other and love one another, and then you see how things are going."
