Rosie Huntington-Whiteley teased her fans with a very racy topless snap as she exposed her killer abs in self-isolation.

The model, 32, took to Twitter on Tuesday morning and wowed her followers with the cheeky selfie.

The former Victoria’s Secret Angel is currently working from her California home amid the coronavirus .

She has been living with her toddler son Jack, two, and her fiancé Jason Statham, 52, and must adhere to the state’s severe “stay at home” rules.

But nothing seems to be stopping the actress as she stripped off for a quick mid-work selfie.

Rosie took a break away from her computer to snap up the sexy snap in a large full-length mirror.

She looked incredible in a pair of cream joggers as she covered her boobs with her hands.

The supermodel left little to the imagination as she showed off her taut tummy, while hiding her face with the camera.

“Sweats” she penned alongside the breathtaking selfie.

Fans went wild over the sultry photo, with one commenting: “Yassss Queen [heart emoji]”.

Another wrote: “Best outfit of yours” as a third shared: “Where is Jason Statham, is he ok? [heart eye emoji]”.

A couple of hours earlier, Rosie posted a snap of her work space to her Story while on a video call with her team.

She captioned: “WFH” and tagged her beauty brand Rose Inc.

She also gave fans a mini-tour of their very beautiful and lavish family home, teasing her “escape room”.

It boasted minimalist interior, a large family bath and extraordinary sink, as well as amazing woodland views.

With a young two-year-old on her hands, Rosie probably spends time relaxing here amid the pandemic.

Writing on her blog recently, the mum-of-one explained: “I spend my time trying to figure out how to entertain a two-year-old indoors, which is a real challenge, I must say.”

She admitted it’s been quite difficult for her to get anything done while her son has been around.

Rosie added: “A few days ago, I tried to shoot something and my son came bursting through my bathroom door screaming, so we’ll see how it goes next time!”

by economictimes.indiatimes.com Leave a Comment

Synopsis

Oscar winner British singer-songwriter Adele postponed her Las Vegas Residency tour about six months earlier, however, now she regrets the decision and calls it the worst moment of her career.

Regretting in public about career decisions is not rare among stars, and the latest to join the bandwagon is the popular British singer Adele who has bagged multiple accolades like

, Grammy, Brit Awards, Golden Globe Award , and Billboard Music Awards in her career, so far.

The singer postponed the Las Vegas Residency tour dates about six months ago. However, at present, she regrets this postponement. She has also gone so far as to claim that it was the worst moment of her career.

Six months ago, In her social media post, Adele announced that the tour, ‘Weekend With Adele’, scheduled at Caesar Palace’s Colosseum , would be disrupted. She cited many reasons for the delay, including crew members’ testing positive for COVID-19 and delivery delays.

Adele revealed other reasons behind the delay of the residency and also termed it the worst moment of her career to date. She said that the planned shows initially did not align with her vision. She said that they lacked soul. The stage’s set-up was amiss; there was a disconnect and a lack of intimacy. She also admitted that she might have given the tours much thought without considering that they were occurring in a controlled environment.

Adele added that the Colosseum stage was huge, creating various issues. She also stated that she couldn’t connect with the audience, and she didn’t want to turn the show into a spectacle.

Adele expressed that after canceling the show, she felt embarrassed.

However, she believed that she did the right thing. She said she felt proud to take a stand for her artistic needs. She also boosted her confidence because she knew that canceling the show was very brave, as most people would not have done that.

Adele’s fourth studio album, called “30,” was released soon after the announcement of the residency tour. She faced criticism after she canceled the Las Vegas residence, due to which she went into hiding and stopped promoting her new album actively. She said that she didn’t want anyone to feel that she was trying her best, which she was.

In July 2022, Adele announced her new tour dates that started in November and would run up to March 2023. While the tour includes 24 scheduled shows, eight new events have been added to the calendar.

Adele revealed that the new concerts would be intimate and show her career’ s journey .

Adele added that the residency would be an emotional journey for her.

NBA Christmas Day 2022: Lakers-Mavericks, Warriors-Grizzlies among five scheduled matchups, per report

by www.cbssports.com Leave a Comment

The 2022-23 NBA schedule is expected to be released in the coming days, but there’s already been several leaks of important games on the league’s calendar. It’s already been reported the reigning champion Golden State Warriors are expected to host LeBron James and the Los Angeles Lakers on opening night of the season, which is set for Oct. 18.

In addition to one of the opening-night games on the league’s calendar, all five Christmas Day matchups have also been reported. As one of the most important days on the NBA ‘s calendar, these games are typically star-studded and sometimes feature rematches from the previous year’s playoffs or pit two of the league’s top stars against each other. Though the regular season will already be two months old by the time Christmas rolls around, the full slate of games also serves as the unofficial start of the NBA season for some casual fans.

Although nothing has been made official just yet, here are the five games expected to take place on Christmas:

The NBA has certainly hit the mark in featuring some of the league’s top stars, both young and old, and all of these reported matchups have enticing storylines.

The Warriors vs. Grizzlies game will be a rematch of the Western Conference semifinals last season, where both teams didn’t shy away from trash-talking, even well after the Warriors put the Grizzlies away. When the Warriors eventually won the championship, several Golden State players made sure to take some not-so-subtle jabs at the Grizzlies, including Draymond Green and Ja Morant hoping their two teams meet on Christmas Day. Well, Green and Morant got their wish, and that matchup will surely be a highly anticipated one.

Though the Lakers and Mavericks don’t have the playful trash-talking the Warriors and Grizzlies possess, it will feature the face of the league in LeBron James, and one of the future faces of the league in Luka Doncic . These two teams met on Christmas two seasons ago, which resulted in the Mavericks getting blown out in Los Angeles, but a lot has happened since that dud of a matchup in 2020. The Mavericks are coming off a run to the Western Conference finals due to Doncic’s MVP-level performance throughout the playoffs, and the Lakers will be trying to get back to the playoffs after missing the cut last season. It’s difficult to read how this game will play out given both teams could still make roster moves before this game, but it should be more entertaining than the matchup we got two seasons ago.

The third reported game on this list may be a preview of the Western Conference finals as the Nuggets play host to the Suns. Denver should be fully healthy with Jamal Murray and Michael Porter Jr . expected to be back in the starting lineup after both players missed all of last season with injuries. Then there’s reigning two-time league MVP Nikola Jokic at the center of it all. He will have some help again as Denver hopes to prove its place in the championship-contending conversation. The Nuggets will reportedly be hosting the Suns, per the Denver Post , which is a rematch of the Western Conference semifinals from two seasons ago. The Nuggets were without Murray in that playoff series against the Suns, so now they’ll get to show Phoenix what it’s like playing against a Denver team at full strength.

The Knicks and Sixers matchup may not be the most exciting matchup on this list, but it does feature some of the league’s best players in Joel Embiid and James Harden . Though the Knicks don’t have the brightest names on their roster to match up against Embiid and Harden, it’ll be a good test for a New York team that hopes its big offseason acquisition of Jalen Brunson can lift this roster to a playoff contender.

The final reported matchup between the Celtics and Bucks is a rematch of the Eastern Conference semifinals from last season. In what was one of the best playoff series a season ago, the Bucks lost to the Celtics in seven games, all without their second-best player in Khris Middleton who suffered an MCL sprain in the first round of the postseason. Middleton recently underwent wrist surgery in July, but is expected back near the start of the season, so he will be ready to go by the time this rematch is set to take place. However, this matchup could look a whole lot different if the Celtics manage to pull off a trade to land Brooklyn Nets star Kevin Durant . We’ll have to wait and see what becomes of the Durant sweepstakes, but regardless of what happens with that, this matchup — as well as the rest on the full slate of games — won’t be short on excitement on Christmas Day.

Who want the smoke: Junior forward Trent Pierce is a legit high major option

by 247sports.com Leave a Comment

CARROLTON, Texas — Things are wide open for players in the class of 2023 to enhance their status with coaches and in the national rankings. Smooth forward Trent Pierce is doing both this spring.

After a strong April run in front of coaches with Oklahoma based Team Griffin in the EYBL, the near 6-foot-9 combo forward from Tulsa (Okla.) Union was making a lot of things happen on Saturday at the TB5Reports Who Want the Smoke event. The key to his success has been pretty simple.

“I think I’ve been a two-way player,” Pierce told 247Sports. “Offensively I’ve been able to score from all three levels and then defensively I’ve been getting stops, blocks and steals and being in position all the time.

Currently ranked as a three-star prospect who sits just outside of the top 150 for the junior class, Pierce is making an argument to make the next rankings update and more importantly than that he’s turning the heads of college coaches and now holds offers from Minnesota, Oklahoma, Oklahoma State, Oral Roberts and Tulsa thanks to his fit in the current college game.

“(Combo forward) is the best fit for me,” said Pierce. “Ever since I started playing AAU I was a big who improved my handles and have become a guy who can play more as a big guard and that’s helped me.

“I think the next step for me is to be more aggressive offensively. I give my props to my teammates because a lot of my shots have been open catch and shoots from my teammates, but I think offensively I could start looking to score more.”

Pierce has taken an official visit to Minnesota and is also familiar with the campuses of the in state schools on his radar.

Minnesota: “The way they play is good for how I play, and I think I could fit perfectly with their playing style and I really like their coaching staff. Coach Kemp was the first coach to reach out to me and we’ve built a really good relationship and when I went on my official visit, I had a great time.”

Oklahoma: “( Porter Moser ) has given me really good impressions. Personally, I’ve had a lot of conversations with him and I feel like I’ve had a lot of great conversations with him and I’ve been able to build a really good relationship with him.”

Oklahoma State: “I really liked the environment over there. The coaches, I really like the coaches. They give off a real family type environment and I really enjoy that.”

Oral Roberts: “Oral Roberts is clsose to home and both of my parents went there so I know a lot about them and they were early on me so that’s why I like Oral Roberts.”

Tulsa: “I haven’t been over there since the new staff got there but I’ve spoken to the coaches, and they came to visit me at a practice after the live period ended. I’ve gotten to meet with them and I really like them and have had some great conversations as well.”

Kansas State is another place he’s been but that was before the coaching staff changed so he’s looking to see if they will get more involved. Whether it be the Wildcats or anybody else, Pierce is starting to lock in on some programs but is waiting until June or July to release a formal list.

“I’ve started to narrow it down in my mind, but I just haven’t announced it yet,” said Pierce. “I really think after these next couple of EYBL sessions I’m going to really start narrowing it down.”

The Lakers and Warriors played on opening night a season ago, but that game, a Warriors win, was played in Los Angeles.

As of right now, this game is a mismatch. The Warriors are the defending champions. The Lakers missed the postseason a year ago and have made no significant changes to their roster … yet. They are in pursuit of Brooklyn Nets guard Kyrie Irving , an opponent the Warriors know well. He was the one who hit the series-winning shot that ended Golden State’s bid for consecutive championships in 2016. Whether Irving is available or not, the Lakers are still pursuing trades to move off of Russell Westbrook , their disappointing addition of a season ago.

Whether or not the Lakers are able to improve, James vs. Curry is the draw here. With both in their 30s, they don’t have too many battles left against one another. Each one should be cherished by the fans. Those who attend this one in San Francisco certainly will. They could ask for no better opponent after receiving their 2022 championship rings than the man they beat to win it all in 2015, 2017 and 2018.

In the other matchup of the evening, we’ll get to see two of the Eastern Conference’s best teams face off in what could be a preview of the East finals. The Celtics are hoping to build upon last season’s success, which ended after Curry and the Warriors toppled them in the NBA Finals. With new additions of Malcolm Brogdon to the backcourt, and Danilo Gallinari off the bench, Boston should be in prime position to make another deep playoff run.

The same goes for their opponent on opening night in the Sixers, who are hoping that a full season of Joel Embiid and James Harden will be enough to get them over the hump of falling short of their championship aspirations. Ironically enough, both of these teams are rumored to be linked to landing superstar forward Kevin Durant in a possible trade from the Brooklyn Nets. If Durant lands with either team before opening night, it’ll only make this matchup more enticing to watch.
