Indian billionaire Sunjay Kapur dies from bee sting
The shocking news flooded social media, sparking widespread debate and speculation about the cause of death. According to NDTV, early reports revealed that Kapur might've suffered from an anaphylactic shock, a life-threatening allergic reaction when an individual is exposed to an allergen.
Renowned Indian surgeon Naresh Trehan said that might've been the case. However, he added that anaphylactic shock cases are rare. Trehan explained to NDTV that Sunjay Kapur might've suffered from a heart attack after choking, or while playing polo.
Trehan added that a post-mortem will reveal the exact cause of death. While efforts are being made to bring his body back to India, the process has suffered multiple delays due to legal paperwork regarding his US citizenship.
During the match, Kapur reportedly told the umpire that he was choking and had "swallowed something" before collapsing. According to the Telegraph, he might've swallowed an insect or been stung by a bee.
Sunjay Kapur was married to Indian actress Karisma Kapoor, and while the couple had two children together, they split in 2016 due to marital problems.

UK citizens use Norman Reedus's Death Stranding face to bypass age restriction
ALBAWABA - Graphics so realistic they bypass the law: Citizens living in the UK recently went viral after reportedly using Norman Reedus's face in Hideo Kojima's game, Death Stranding, to bypass the country's recently introduced "safety measures" for internet age restriction. Kojima's recently released game, Death Stranding 2, received critical success for its stunning graphics, unique gameplay, and engaging storyline. However, UK citizens are taking advantage of the realistic graphics to reportedly bypass age-restricted content on porn websites, Discord, and Reddit. The new law aims to make it harder for children to come across adult content or harmful material on the internet. According to the BBC, platforms that ignore the new law could face a £18 million fine or 10 percent in world revenue. Ofcom, the media regulator, which implemented the law, is using estimated age selfies, credit card checks, and photo ID matching to verify the user's age. The move sparked widespread debate on social media, with many adults protesting. Some individuals raised concerns about sharing sensitive content such as ID and credit cards on the internet. Several others said they are willing to use a VPN to bypass the new law.

Harry Styles drops sex toys, not songs — fans say 'We Wanted Music, Not Vibrators!'
ALBAWABA - Fans have been talking about Harry Styles's new sex toys. This week, Harry Styles got a lot of attention when he posted an unusual update on Instagram Stories. Some fans thought he might be announcing new music, but the former One Direction star instead said he would be putting out a new collection of clothes from Pleasing, the lifestyle brand he started in 2021. Harry Styles kept his cards close to his chest at first in the update. He shared a mysterious picture of someone setting a glass of milk on a table and then tapping something in Morse code while a woman heard and looked shocked. Pleasing Instagram profile While playing at home, the text said, "For those 18 years of age and older," and it then gave a link to a website that said the same thing. After that, the site said, "Something Nice is Coming Soon" and "Not Everything Needs to Be Spelled Out." The company has now announced that there will be a new line of sex toys. The toys are called "intimacy tools" and are meant to put pleasure where it belongs: in your hands. There are now two items on the market. "The Pleasing Lube" is an FDA-approved silicone lubricant, and "The Pleasing Double-Sided Vibrator" was created by Pleasing and author Zoe Ligon. The first one costs $25 (£19), and the second one costs $68 (£50). The Pleasing brand used to only sell nail polish and a few skin care items, but this marks an increase of its offerings. Since its start in 2021, it has grown to include clothes, accessories, candles, and scents. Styles' new release has caused mixed feelings among his fans. Some are happy that he is focused on growing his business, while others are upset that his most recent Instagram posts didn't hint at new music. harry styles vibrator before a new album i can't make this shit up lmfaooooooooooo — ali (@eversinceali) July 24, 2025 One person on X/Twitter said, "Harry Styles is putting out vibrators before going to the studio and making HS4," and another said, "We didn't ask for this; we asked for new music..." Some people were more positive about the launch, though. One said, "All my years of being a One Direction fan have led me to this time... I'm going to buy the Harry Styles vibrator."

Ozzy: 'Prince of Darkness' and maestro of heavy metal
LONDON — Ozzy Osbourne will go down in rock history as the "godfather of heavy metal" who fulfilled his hard-living dreams as the frontman of Black Sabbath. After decades of debauchery and more than 100 million albums sold, the British singer died on Tuesday at the age of 76, leaving behind his wife Sharon, six children, a host of grandchildren and a permanent legacy in the annals of rock'n'roll. His death came a little more than two weeks after Black Sabbath played a farewell concert to 40,000 fans at Villa Park, in his native Birmingham. Rock royalty lined up to pay tribute to him including Metallica, Guns N' Roses and members of Aerosmith and the Rolling Stones at the stadium that is the home to his beloved Aston Villa football team. Ozzy, as he was routinely referred to, attracted legions of new fans in the 2000s after appearing as the hard-of-hearing, slightly crazy but doting grandfather in MTV's hit reality show "The Osbournes", a far cry from the excesses that defined his 1970s heyday. Until his renaissance, he was best known in the mainstream for biting the head of a live bat during a concert and for urinating in the wine glass of a record-label chief -- as well as on the Alamo monument in Texas. But for hard-rock fans he will forever be remembered as the "Prince of Darkness" leading Black Sabbath, the band that helped launch heavy metal, a blend of rock and blues drenched in distortion and dark lyrics. 'Girls ran out screaming' The band enjoyed immediate success on the release of its eponymous debut album in 1970. Hundreds of thousands around the world continued to flock to hear rock hymns such as "Paranoid", "War Pigs" and "Iron Man" at the band's riotous live shows for almost 50 years, until the band brought down the curtain a first time with a gig in Birmingham in 2017. Ozzy, like many of his contemporaries, suffered from gaps in his memory due to drink and drugs on the road, but few can claim to have such monumental black holes. He said that he had forgotten attempting to strangle his wife Sharon the year their eldest daughter was born, adding that he had very few recollections from the 1990s as a whole. In 2010, scientists even analysed his genome to try to understand how he had survived so much self-inflicted punishment. Ozzy said he could not remember where he performed Black Sabbath's debut album for the first time. "But I can sure as hell remember the audience's reaction: all the girls ran out of the venue, screaming," he recalled in his autobiography "I am Ozzy". His wild lifestyle led to run-ins with the law, including visits to court on charges of satanism and encouraging suicide, though his criminal career started before he joined the band, spending time in jail for stealing a television and baby clothes. John Michael Osbourne was born into a working-class family in Birmingham on December 3, 1948. He inherited his nickname in primary school. Dyslexic and angry with homework, he left school at 15 before working in manual jobs, including at an abattoir. But he decided he would become a rock star after hearing the Beatles on the radio, a fantasy he realised incredibly quickly. 'Everyone around me is dying' Shortly after meeting guitarist Tony Iommi, the two decided to "stop doing blues and write scary music instead", inspired by horror movies. The resulting sound of heavy riffs accompanied by Ozzy's droning voice singing lyrics exploring the dark side of human nature became the template for heavy metal. "Pink Floyd was music for rich college kids, and we were the exact opposite of that," he said. Albums followed at a frantic pace, often shunned by critics but acclaimed by fans. Ozzy left the band in 1979, going on to have a succesful solo career and releasing 11 albums while juggling a turbulent personal life. His first marriage to Thelma, with whom he had two children, Elliot and Jessica, was by his own admission a disaster. In 1982 he married Sharon, his manager, who quickly became his rock. They had three children -- Aimee, Kelly and Jack -- and adopted another boy, Roberto. Despite his seemingly carefree personality, the deaths of his rocker friend Lemmy Kilmister of Motorhead and David Bowie left him in a reflective mood. "Everybody's dying around me, but I'm at that age," he told Rolling Stone magazine in 2016. He was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease in 2019, with all profits from his last concert on July 5 going to charities including Cure Parkinson's and Birmingham Children's Hospital. The Prince of Darkness clung on for another six years after his diagnosis, before joining his peers in the pantheon of late, great British musicians.
