Carrie Fisher gets star on Hollywood Walk of Fame

The late Carrie Fisher has been honoured with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

This is despite a family dispute which risked overshadowing the entire occasion.

The Hollywood tribute to the late Princess Leia actress was held on May the Fourth – which is also known as Star Wars Day.

A row has erupted between Fisher’s daughter and siblings over recent months.

Her brother and sisters have criticised Billie Lourd for not inviting them, with Lourd accusing them of trying to “capitalise on [her] mother’s death”.

Fisher died in 2016 at the age of 60.

In 2018, Star Wars actor Mark Hamill led calls for his co-star to be given her own tile on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

Speaking at the ceremony, Hamill said he will “never stop missing” Fisher.

A helicopter carrying Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi and his foreign minister crashed on Sunday as it was crossing mountain terrain in heavy fog.

The official said the lives of Raisi and Foreign Minister Hossein Amirabdollahian were “at risk following the helicopter crash”, which happened on the way back from a visit to the border with Azerbaijan in Iran’s northwest.

“We are still hopeful but information coming from the crash site is very concerning,” the official told Reuters, speaking on condition of anonymity.

State TV quoted an official as saying at least one passenger and one crew member had been in contact with rescuers. It also said the helicopter had been found, though Iran’s Red Crescent denied this report.

Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, who holds ultimate power with a final say on foreign policy and Iran’s nuclear programme, sought to reassure Iranians, saying there would be no disruption to state affairs. #iran #trending

Why Australia is becoming the new home of the Hollywood blockbuster

Published

on

Australia’s multimillion-dollar campaign to attract Hollywood productions to its shores appears to be paying off.

The allure of Australia lies not only in its picturesque locations but also in its competitive financial incentives.

The government offers generous rebates and tax breaks to international productions, making it an attractive proposition for filmmakers looking to maximise their budgets.

Despite the recent intake of Hollywood productions down under such as ‘The Fall Guy’ and ‘Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga’, Aussie independents are still finding the space to carve their own creative path.
