The publisher of Vogue magazine has sued rappers Drake and 21 Savage for promoting their new album using a fake Vogue cover and the magazine’s name without authorization, according to a lawsuit filed on Monday. And none of it has been authorized by Condé Nast,” the publisher alleges in its lawsuit. “Vogue magazine and its Editor-in-Chief Anna Wintour have had no involvement in Her Loss or its promotion, and have not endorsed it in any way.”A representative for Drake, whose real name is Aubrey Graham, declined comment. Their “deceptive campaign” has caused unmistakable confusion over the veracity of the magazine cover and “underscores the tremendous value that a cover feature in Vogue magazine carries,” the lawsuit stated. The distribution of a fake Vogue cover is among several spoofs the rappers rolled out in support of their album release.

Chinese equities make up 31% of the MSCI Emerging Market index (.MIEF00000PUS), a popular stock index that many funds track and benchmark their performances against. Fund research firm Morningstar tracks nine new emerging market ex-China equity mutual funds and exchange-traded funds (ETFs) that were created this year, matching the number of launches in total over the previous two years. If Aubrey was to remove China from its emerging market strategy, the Indian market would take a significant portion, while the rest will be spread around other countries including Vietnam, Brazil and Mexico, he said. OUTFLOWSAndrew McCaffery, Fidelity International's global chief investment officer, said they have received increased requests from clients for emerging markets excluding China strategies, although the purpose was to “break China out as an allocation separately within global portfolios”. “The challenge is that they (global investors) are not going to be quick to add back in,” he said.

CNN —“The White Lotus” hasn’t lost any of its intoxicating allure, shifting its mix of rich-people problems and staff struggles to a new island (Sicily), with Jennifer Coolidge as the one holdover from the Emmy-winning original. It’s an impressive exercise in reloading by writer-director Mike White, who based on this encore should have plenty of frequent-flyer miles in his future if he chooses. Jennifer Coolidge returns in season 2 of 'The White Lotus.' When a character utters a line like, “Please don’t make me regret this,” in the environs of “The White Lotus,” it immediately feels like a warning that he eventually will. “The White Lotus” premieres October 30 at 9 p.m. on HBO, which, like CNN, is a unit of Warner Bros.

"The White Lotus" season two premieres October 30 on HBO and HBO Max. From creator Mike White, "The White Lotus" is an anthology show that focuses on guests at various White Lotus resort locations. "The White Lotus" season two will have a total of seven episodes, which is one more than the first season. "The White Lotus" season two was renewed a few days before the season one finale in August 2021. "The White Lotus" season two's enthusiastic critical response suggests it could follow in season one's acclaimed footsteps.

☆ A 26-year-old financially independent entrepreneur shares the 3 keys to success that helped him build a multi-million dollar company

Before the company took off, he adhered to "success rules" that helped him push through low points. In 2016, Uboh and his future business partner, Aubrey Evins, started Premier Medical Supply Company in his home state of Georgia. Uboh bet on himself and won big: Today, JUBOH is a multi-million dollar company, which Insider verified, and Uboh considers himself financially independent. Before the company took off, he adhered to three "success rules" that helped him push through the low points. Once you achieve some level of success, don't bask in it, Uboh added: "Success doesn't create success; habits do.

During the game, she said, the crowd nearby began chanting “F--- the Mormons.” Over and over. As a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, BYU’s sponsoring institution, Aubrey wanted the chanting to stop. Latter-day Saints have a fair track record when it comes to cheek-turning. There’s of course a balance to strike in the case of the Oregon chants. And yet, if you can publicly chant “F--- the Mormons” with only minimal social consequences, it’s time for Latter-day Saints to collectively push, as Aubrey sought to do, for greater and more immediate action.

Aubrey and Dave Appel went viral this week for their "Stranger Things"-inspired decor, which depicts a scene from the Netflix hit series in which character Max Mayfield levitates. Just like the show, the Max figure int the Appel's Chicago home also floats — and no one on social media can figure out how. The couple appreciates how practical effects in horror films can look incredibly real, which is what inspired some of their practical Halloween props. Aubrey and Dave Appel created a floating replica of Max from “Stranger Things,” which has gone viral on social media. Remind me when the reveal video is up please," one person commented on the Appel's TikTok video.

The second season of HBO’s “Succession,” whose fictional media family, the Roys, bears a striking resemblance to the Murdochs, airs this summer. ‘A press dictatorship’To understand how the Murdoch empire works, it is essential to return to its origins. The bigger Murdoch’s empire became, the more power he had to clear away obstacles to further its expansion.
