As rumours of marriage trouble and drug use swirl, Justin Bieber shares sweet photos with wife Hailey
Perhaps to answer said gossip, the star posted a series of photos with his wife Hailey Rhode Beiber embracing with the caption: 'My forever n always.'
He also posted pictures of what looked like fuzzy slippers hinting at a possible new venture as well as selfies with the caption: 'Detoxxxxxxxxxxx.'
Online reports have claimed that the singer's marriage is on the rocks with videos showing the singer dancing erratically at Coachella while his wife watched passively.
Just a week ago however the couple, who share a son, Jack Blues, were seen enjoying themselves at a Martin Garrix concert so perhaps all is well for now.

AI video becomes more convincing, rattling creative industry
NEW YORK, July 8 — Gone are the days of six-fingered hands or distorted faces — AI-generated video is becoming increasingly convincing, attracting Hollywood, artists, and advertisers, while shaking the foundations of the creative industry. To measure the progress of AI video, you need only look at Will Smith eating spaghetti. Since 2023, this unlikely sequence—entirely fabricated—has become a technological benchmark for the industry. Two years ago, the actor appeared blurry, his eyes too far apart, his forehead exaggeratedly protruding, his movements jerky, and the spaghetti didn't even reach his mouth. The version published a few weeks ago by a user of Google's Veo 3 platform showed no apparent flaws whatsoever. 'Every week, sometimes every day, a different one comes out that's even more stunning than the next,' said Elizabeth Strickler, a professor at Georgia State University. Between Luma Labs' Dream Machine launched in June 2024, OpenAI's Sora in December, Runway AI's Gen-4 in March 2025, and Veo 3 in May, the sector has crossed several milestones in just a few months. Runway has signed deals with Lionsgate studio and AMC Networks television group. Lionsgate vice president Michael Burns told New York Magazine about the possibility of using artificial intelligence to generate animated, family-friendly versions from films like the John Wick or Hunger Games franchises, rather than creating entirely new projects. 'Some use it for storyboarding or previsualization'—steps that come before filming—'others for visual effects or inserts,' said Jamie Umpherson, Runway's creative director. Burns gave the example of a script for which Lionsgate has to decide whether to shoot a scene or not. To help make that decision, they can now create a 10-second clip 'with 10,000 soldiers in a snowstorm.' That kind of pre-visualization would have cost millions before. In October, the first AI feature film was released—Where the Robots Grow—an animated film without anything resembling live action footage. For Alejandro Matamala Ortiz, Runway's co-founder, an AI-generated feature film is not the end goal, but a way of demonstrating to a production team that 'this is possible.' 'Resistance everywhere' Still, some see an opportunity. In March, startup Staircase Studio made waves by announcing plans to produce seven to eight films per year using AI for less than US$500,000 each, while ensuring it would rely on unionized professionals wherever possible. 'The market is there,' said Andrew White, co-founder of small production house Indie Studios. People 'don't want to talk about how it's made,' White pointed out. 'That's inside baseball. People want to enjoy the movie because of the movie.' But White himself refuses to adopt the technology, considering that using AI would compromise his creative process. Jamie Umpherson argues that AI allows creators to stick closer to their artistic vision than ever before, since it enables unlimited revisions, unlike the traditional system constrained by costs. 'I see resistance everywhere' to this movement, observed Georgia State's Strickler. This is particularly true among her students, who are concerned about AI's massive energy and water consumption as well as the use of original works to train models, not to mention the social impact. But refusing to accept the shift is 'kind of like having a business without having the internet,' she said. 'You can try for a little while.' In 2023, the American actors' union SAG-AFTRA secured concessions on the use of their image through AI. Strickler sees AI diminishing Hollywood's role as the arbiter of creation and taste, instead allowing more artists and creators to reach a significant audience. Runway's founders, who are as much trained artists as they are computer scientists, have gained an edge over their AI video rivals in film, television, and advertising. But they're already looking further ahead, considering expansion into augmented reality and virtual reality — for example creating a metaverse where films could be shot. 'The most exciting applications aren't necessarily the ones that we have in mind,' said Umpherson. 'The ultimate goal is to see what artists do with technology.' — AFP

‘Jurassic World: Rebirth' roars to top of N.American box office
Scarlett Johansson and Jonathan Bailey star in 'Jurassic World: Rebirth'. (Universal Pictures pic) LOS ANGELES : 'Jurassic World: Rebirth' – the latest instalment in the blockbuster dinosaur saga – stomped the July 4th weekend competition at the North American box office, raking in a whopping US$91.5 million in its debut, industry estimates showed Sunday. The Universal film, starring Scarlett Johansson, Jonathan Bailey and Mahershala Ali, takes viewers to an abandoned island research facility for the original Jurassic Park theme park, where secrets – and genetically mutated dinosaurs – are lurking. 'This is an excellent opening for the 7th episode of an action-adventure monster series,' said analyst David A Gross of Franchise Entertainment Research. 'The series has been especially good overseas and so far foreign business is outstanding. Dinosaur action is understood in all languages and across all cultures.' 'F1: The Movie,' the Apple and Warner Bros flick starring Brad Pitt as a washed-up Formula One driver who gets one last shot at redemption, slipped to second place at US$26.1 million, Exhibitor Relations said. 'How to Train Your Dragon,' Universal and DreamWorks Animation's live-action reboot of the popular 2010 film, held in at third place at US$11 million. The family-friendly film tells the story of a Viking named Hiccup (Mason Thames) who strikes up a friendship with Toothless the dragon. In fourth place was Disney/Pixar Animation's latest original film 'Elio,' at US$5.7 million in the United States and Canada. 'Elio' tells the story of a young boy who is mistaken by aliens as an intergalactic ambassador for Earth. The voice cast includes Oscar winner Zoe Saldana. In fifth place was Columbia Pictures' zombie sequel '28 Years Later,' which took in US$4.6 million. The Danny Boyle-directed threequel picks up – as the title suggests – more than a generation after the initial outbreak of the Rage Virus. Rounding out the top 10 were:
