Eilish McColgan has revealed she suffered racist abuse online after posting pictures of her engagement to former athlete Michael Rimmer. McColgan, who won a gold medal at the 2022 Commonwealth Games in Birmingham and was this week named as an official ambassador for the 2026 Games in Glasgow, has called for social media companies to do more to combat online hate.

McColgan, 34, says she has become 'numb' to it but appreciates the trauma it causes others.

'For myself, it [the abuse] is always about body image but I recently posted my engagement to my partner and the racist abuse that we received, being a mixed race couple, was honestly disgusting,' said McColgan. 'I've never read anything like it in my life. That was probably pretty eye-opening for me because it was a different type of abuse that was coming towards me that I'd never experienced before. And it's maybe how my parents feel when they read stuff about me. It was me reading that about someone I love, which was difficult to do, so it probably gave me a little bit of a greater appreciation of what my family probably have to go through when they read stuff about me online. Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad 'Sadly, that's the downside of social media and the online world that we're in. All we can do is keep standing up for ourselves, voicing our disgust at it, outing people who are maybe not afraid to share their names and stuff online but also ask for verification on social media.' McColgan, who was in Glasgow for the unveiling of the 2026 Commonwealth Games mascot, would like social media users to be verified before being given a platform.

'I think it would make a big difference because people won't want their employers seeing what they're saying online. It's harder to hide behind that because there's probably more consequences behind it. I think it stops people from making bad decisions but, as I said, it is part and parcel of just being online.' Carter is part of the England squad that has reached the final of the Euros in Switzerland and said this week she would take a step back from social media after suffering online racist abuse since the tournament began. McColgan expressed sympathy for the footballer. Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad 'I mean it's obviously not stopping,' said McColgan. 'I don't think it's a new conversation at all. As I said, it's been happening to me for a long long time. It's not right but sadly that's the way the world has gone. 'Honestly, I've become so numb to it. Even speaking about it, I just feel like it's just part of everyday life like I can't stop it so there's no point in me getting all stressed and worked up about it but I do appreciate that for other athletes, it does wind them up and it does actually take a lot out of them emotionally, mentally.

Dropkick Murphys exit Punk in the Park festival over founder's Trump campaign donations
Dropkick Murphys, the American Celtic punk band widely known for their 2005 hit 'I'm Shipping up to Boston,' announced Wednesday they will no longer be performing at any more Punk in the Park shows after learning the festival's organizer donated to the Trump campaign. "Punk Rock and Donald Trump just don't belong together. So Upon finding out that Brew Ha Ha promotions donated to the Trump campaign we will not be playing any more Punk in the Park shows," the band said in the caption of an Instagram video. In the video, frontman Ken Casey told an audience: "The far-right ain't the new punk." The band had just recently performed in Denver but said it will not continue for any other Punk in the Park shows. Cameron Collins, owner of Brew Ha Ha, the group that organized the festival, posted his own statemen t in response. "We live in a two-party system, and unfortunately, you must choose based on a few important issues that resonate with you. For me, those issues were the promise to end wars and refrain from entering new international conflicts, lower taxes, and stopping government overreach," Collins said. He added that he hasn't liked many of Trump's recent "viewpoints, opinions, and policies thus far," and noted that the festival has not and will not donate any of its proceeds to any political party. Federal Election Commission records show Collins made multiple small-dollar donations last year to the Trump National Committee, Never Surrender and WinRed. The Trump National Committee and Never Surrender use funds raised to support President Donald Trump. WinRed bills itself as "the only fundraising platform built exclusively for conservatives." Like most punk bands, Dropkick Murphys identify with the broader left-wing movement, and they haven't been shy about their opposition to Trump. In March, Casey called out a fan wearing a "Make America Great Again" shirt at a concert. Upon making a wager and verifying that the "MAGA" shirt was made in Nicaragua, Casey had the fan change into a "proudly made in America Dropkick Murphys shirt." "We don't care if we lose fans because when history's said and done, we want it known that Dropkick Murphys stood with the people, we stood with the workers," Casey said at the time.

Sacha Baron Cohen shows off complete body transformation after getting Marvel abs
Sacha Baron Cohen has unveiled his ripped physique in a front cover photo shoot, which the Borat and Ali G actor said is categorically 'not AI' after getting shredded for a Marvel role Sacha Baron Cohen is flaunting his transformed physique after getting into shape for his latest Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) role. The divisive performer graces the front of Men's Fitness UK, appearing topless whilst gripping 30-pound weights in each hand. In a collaborative Instagram post shared by both Sacha and the magazine on Wednesday, July 23, they unveiled the cover alongside additional shots from the feature showing him performing pull-ups, operating cable equipment and striking poses on a gymnasium bench. Sacha posted several images from the shoot to his Instagram Stories, adding his own witty observations. "This is not AI, I really am egotistical enough to do this," wrote Sacha, who completed his divorce from Isla Fisher in June, beneath the magazine cover. On another photograph, he penned: "Some celebs use Ozempic, some use private chefs, others use personal trainers. I did all three." In subsequent Stories posts, Sacha declared he was "hard launching my mid-life crisis" and "debuting my new character: middle aged man who replaced beer with protein shakes." For his penultimate post, he stated "This whilst tagging Marvel Studios and using the hashtag shirtless Mephisto. Mephisto is the Marvel Comics character he recently portrayed in the MCU, reports the Mirror US. He wrapped up by expressing gratitude to his personal trainer Alfonso Moretti "for doing the unthinkable - putting up with me for 25 mins a day." Alfonso also shared the magazine photos to his Instagram and said that he "could not be more proud" of Sacha. "Sacha trusted my process and followed the plan exactly. Not only did he earn better health and fitness with incredible also... The COVER of Men's Fitness! ! !" the personal trainer penned. "From Borat to Buff full article coming this Friday! For now, enjoy the pictures. Tell me he doesn't look absolutely incredible!". He concluded by teasing that fans can discover how Sacha achieved his new physique in the issue releasing on Friday, July 25. Sacha recently portrayed the villainous Mephisto in the season finale of Ironheart, which aired on July 1. Mephisto is a notorious character from the Marvel Comics, making his debut in Silver Surfer #3 in December 1968. The character was brought to life by Stan Lee and John Buscema, drawing inspiration from Mephistopheles, a demon character from the Faust legend. During a recent press event, Kevin Feige, President of Marvel Studios, confirmed that Cohen would reprise his role as Mephisto in future projects, although he remained tight-lipped about their plans for the character. "He's another character that, pre-MCU, would have been hard to do. He's a devil. How do you do that character? But he's a formative character. He was a big part of Thanos' storyline in the comics. So again, now that he's here, the potential is clear," Kevin shared with GamesRadar, speaking about Mephisto.
