Rob Kardashian's ex Blac Chyna showcases dramatic weight loss amid Hollywood's Ozempic craze
She has been embarking on a spiritual and physical makeover in recent years, one which has seen her get into incredible shape. And Blac Chyna showcased the results of all her regular workouts in her latest post on Thursday. Clad in a skintight taupe bodysuit, the outfit accentuated Chyna's incredible weight loss. 'Ginger has entered the chat @fashionnova,' she captioned the post, seemingly referencing her fiery hair color. Chyna - born Angela White - was the picture of fitness as she showed off her flat abs, toned legs and defined arms. Feet slipped into to New Balance trainers and chunky white socks, Chyna, 37, looked ready to exercise in style. While various celebrities have also been dropping the pounds with the help of weight loss medication Ozempic in recent years, Chyna, who has never said she's used the product, can thank her fitness regimen for her results. The star - who has four-year-old daughter Dream with ex-fiance Rob Kardashian and 12-year-old son King with ex-fiance Tyga - has been documenting her rigorous workouts on Instagram, and didn't take any breaks as bikini season approached. 'Summer is around the corner baby… time to shred !!!!! Let's goooo @_a1fit 8 week program let's get it,' she captioned an exercise post back in April. Not only has Chyna been hitting the gym to maintain her svelte physique, but two years ago she underwent a dramatic physical and mental make-under after getting baptized and reconnecting with God. The born-again Christian began a return to her natural body after making her name showing off more voluptuous curves, undergoing a breast reduction, removing the silicone fillers in her derriere, and dissolving her facial fillers. She also got sober and shed her infamous stage name in favor of embracing her birth name. Reflecting on the process to return back to Angela, the My Word singer admitted to in 2023 that it has been a 'rewarding' experience. 'Not only am I doing it for myself, but then I'm also encouraging other people that's even thinking about it,' she gushed. The former stripper said she was stunned by the reaction to her make-under however - admitting she 'didn't think it was going to be so massive'. The born-again Christian began a return to her natural body after making her name showing off more voluptuous curves, getting a breast reduction, removing the silicone fillers in her derriere and dissolving her facial fillers; pictured 2016 'Everybody's been really, really supportive. When I posted it, I didn't think that it was going to be so massive,' she said of her decision to share video footage of herself having her filler dissolved. 'Like, I posted at maybe 3.30 in the morning. And I was just healing from my surgery and thought, 'Let me just post these,' and then I went to sleep. I woke up and it had blown up but in a positive way. 'When I saw that, I'm like, 'This makes me want to even be more open and vulnerable with the people so they can see.' So that's when I documented me, dissolving in my face fillers in the lips.' Chyna has no regrets about dissolving her filler, confessing that she believes she went too far with the cosmetic procedure. 'It got to a point where my lips were so big, even when I would smile, you still couldn't see my teeth,' she said. 'Now you can see my teeth... I have teeth.' She was quick to stress that she is 'not against' fillers or cosmetic surgery, but noted that she wants anyone who is thinking of getting work done to research thoroughly and 'make sure you know exactly what you are putting into your body'. Chyna had previously admitted to undergoing a long list of procedures, including four breast surgeries, liposuction, and a backside enhancement before she began posting a series of candid videos in 2023 to document her surgery journey. She insisted that she never had a Brazilian butt lift but had silicone injections into her backside when she was 19 years old. Speaking about her reasons for getting plastic surgery procedures, Chyna said that much of it boiled down to 'insecurity', candidly sharing: 'Basically it's being insecure. 'As women, we want to look the best and like as fake as possible and plastic and everything needs to be perfect in this and that. But that's not normal, that comes from insecurity and different things of that sort and just being in that certain kind of life and lifestyle. 'So I'm kind of done with that type of lifestyle and I just want to step into my own and own it.'

Paramount Global says Skydance merger should close in two weeks
July 25 (Reuters) - Paramount Global (PARA.O), opens new tab said on Friday it expects to complete its merger with Skydance Media by August 7, following government approval for the $8.4 billion deal. Skydance CEO David Ellison is prepared to assume the helm at Paramount, home to the venerable Paramount Pictures, the CBS broadcast network, and a collection of cable television channels. The new chief executive already is confronted with questions from investors about the future of the Paramount+ streaming service, plans for Paramount's declining television assets, and forecasts for spending on content -- including professional sports. "Now that the long, drawn-out sale process is finally nearing its end, Skydance leadership is poised to take control," wrote MoffettNathanson media analyst Robert Fishman. "With that, the real work begins -- rebuilding Paramount, addressing the critical strategic questions ahead, and charting a path toward a more sustainable and competitive future." Announced more than a year ago, the merger will unite Paramount's prized film and TV library including classics such as "Ferris Bueller's Day Off" and "Breakfast at Tiffany's," with films it produced with Skydance, including "Top Gun: Maverick" and "Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning." Ellison was not available for comment. He has previously said he plans to expand Paramount's technological capabilities, rebuild the Paramount+ platform and grow the streaming business, and reorganize the business to prioritize cash flow. A year ago, he said the team had identified $2 billion in cost savings. The Federal Communications Commission cleared the deal on Thursday, just weeks after Paramount settled a lawsuit filed by U.S. President Donald Trump over CBS' editing of a "60 Minutes" interview with his Democratic opponent, former Vice President Kamala Harris. The $16-million settlement drew criticism that Paramount had effectively bought regulatory approval, with the Democratic dissenter in the FCC's 2-1 vote calling it a "cowardly capitulation" to the Trump administration. The agency has repeatedly said its review was independent of the lawsuit.

Taylor Swift's subtle tribute to Travis Kelce after he hard-launched romance and caused fan meltdown
Taylor Swift has broken her silence after her boyfriend of nearly two years Travis Kelce finally went Instagram official with her. Swifties the world over went into instant meltdown Thursday when Travis, 35, posted Instagram pictures with Taylor, 35, for the first time. Fans began forensically dissecting the images, making note of details like the lock screen of Travis' phone, which is now a snap of him with Taylor. Some breathless rumor-mongers even shared theories that they might be engaged, based on two different white outfits Taylor was pictured wearing. As the frenzy kept gathering steam into Friday, Taylor poured fuel on the fire by paying a subtle tribute to the NFL star on her Insta Stories. She uploaded a post enthusiastically plugging the new Adam Sandler movie Happy Gilmore 2, which contains a shirtless cameo by Travis. 'Happy Gilmore 2 had me cackling and cheering the whole movie!' she gushed. 'An absolute must watch, 13/10, go watch it on @netflix as soon as humanly possible.' She added a honey emoji, making a sly reference to a scene near the end of the movie in which Travis is slathered with the condiment while half-naked. Travis briefly appears in the movie as a high-strung maître d' who works with one of the main characters, a busboy called Oscar played by Bad Bunny. At one point Travis' character throws a temper tantrum and fires Oscar, who becomes the caddy to pro golfer Happy Gilmore (Adam Sandler). Near the end of the movie, Happy asks Oscar to picture his 'happy place' - and Oscar summons up an image of his Travis' character, tied up and wearing nothing but an apron with honey smeared all over him and a hungry bear approaching. One day before Taylor's post, Travis shared a number of loved-up photos with her on Thursday as part of an 'offseason adventures' Instagram dump, which marks the first time he has ever posted his girlfriend. The celebrity power couple, who have dominated headlines since they went public with their relationship in September 2023, look smitten in a number of snaps captured on nights out together. Travis and Taylor are first seen posing together in a warm setting, with other pictures showing them out for dinner, clowning around in the snow and skating on an ice rink. They also took photos with different groups of friends, one of which includes NFL reporters Charissa Thompson and Erin Andrews and their respective partners. Travis' older brother Jason, mom Donna and dad Ed also feature in the Instagram dump, as does Taylor's younger brother Austin. Travis and Jason are spotted in one of the images in a woodland setting with Austin, who appears to be holding a tree pruner. Nevertheless, Kelce's offseason dump has mainly sparked a frenzy online because of the intimate snaps he shared of Swift. The pop megastar's diehard legion of 'Swiftie' fans rushed to the comments to gush over the photos, with one writing: 'Their happiness is my happiness'. Another posted: 'SHE LOOKS SOOO HAPPY OMG'. While a third put: 'thank you for this - sincerely, all swifites'. Some eagle-eyed Swifties also pointed out how one of the photos shows that Swift features on the lock screen of her boyfriend's phone. One commented: 'why is nobody talking about how she's his lock screen!!!' 'The locked screen pic of Taylor and Trav....I just fainted,' said another. And a third joked: 'Not me zooming in on the phone screensaver.' Travis and Taylor are also seen enjoying a glass of wine with another group in a different photo Kelce and Swift have enjoyed a more low-key offseason together than last year, with the pair only making a handful of public appearances since the Chiefs' Super Bowl defeat to the Philadelphia Eagles in February. The most noteworthy of the lot came when Taylor made a surprise cameo at her man's 'Tight End University' event in Nashville last month, where she took to the stage and performed her famous 'Shake It Off' song. On a subsequent edition of his New Heights podcast, Travis explained that they had been cooking up a plan to 'have some fun' for some time. But his older brother Jason was among those who were shocked when footage emerged of the pop sensation on stage. 'Tay Tay showed up!' Travis said. 'We were in Nashville, she grew up in Nashville - she moved there when she was younger - and we had this planned for a while that we were going to have some fun with the tight ends. He continued: 'I won't say when the idea came up but we were there at "Tight End & Friends" and we knew that there was a professional like Kane Brown, who could just figure it out. 'He's a pro, he's been on stage a million times, he's not shy at all by any means... Tay just went up to him and the band and was like: "Hey if you guys are down, I'll go up there, play a song and see if we can pop the roof off this place." And sure enough...' Travis revealed that before going out to perform, Swift was backstage writing sheets of music for the band. 'I don't know, I'm not a musician but she was making sure that the band and everybody (knew it). And then just went out there without practicing and it was pitch perfect and just killed it,' Travis continued. 'She's so good with everybody and making people feel comfortable. And absolutely rocked the stage yet again, it was awesome, man.' Kelce was back on the practice field on Tuesday as the Chiefs began their preparations for the new NFL season. From Tuesday until August 13, the team will be based at Missouri Western State University in St Joseph - around an hour north Arrowhead Stadium. There, Kelce and the other 89 players on the roster will stay in dorms on campus for the duration of camp. That means three weeks without seeing their partners and families. For Kelce, that means three weeks without seeing Swift.
