The award night of the Oscars 2024 was both unforgettable and fashionable. In terms of inclusivity, they went the extra mile by inviting well-known content creators to grace the carpet.  The likes of Drea Okeke and Kristy Sarah were live for some thrilling content. But there were even more delightful highlights.

For one, Oppenheimer triumphed at the 2024 Oscars, sweeping the night with a whopping seven awards. Director Christopher Nolan emerged victorious, taking home the award for Best Director. Cillian Murphy delivered a performance so powerful it earned him Best Actor honors. Robert Downey Jr. wasn’t left out either, adding Best Supporting Actor to his trophy case. The film’s brilliance extended beyond acting, with wins for Best Cinematography, Best Original Score, and Best Film Editing. Oppenheimer’s dominance at the Oscars was evidence of its cinematic masterpiece.

Emma Stone took home the Best Actress award for her role in “Poor Things.” This unexpected win came as a surprise, as many expected Lily Gladstone to win for her acclaimed performance in “Killers of the Flower Moon.” Poor Things” didn’t stop there; the film racked up three additional awards in the technical categories, winning Best Costume Design, Production Design, and Makeup and Hairstyling.

Ben Affleck & Jennifer Lopez Finalise Divorce Settlement | fab.ng

Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck will finalise their divorce on February 20, 2025, following a mutual agreement confirmed in court documents obtained by E!

News on January 6. The couple reached an amicable settlement that allows each party to retain their individual earnings from their two-year marriage, with no spousal support requirements.

Lopez filed for divorce in Los Angeles on August 20, 2024, citing April 26, 2024, as their separation date. The filing date coincidentally aligned with the anniversary of their 2022 wedding ceremony in Georgia, which followed their initial Las Vegas elopement.

The settlement stipulates that Lopez will revert to her maiden name after previously changing it to Affleck during their marriage. Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez agreed to the terms without dispute.

Their relationship history spans over two decades, beginning on the set of their film “Gigil” in 2002. At that time, Lopez was married to her second husband, Cris Judd. Following her divorce from Judd in 2003, Lopez and Affleck publicly announced their relationship.

Lopez’s marriage to Affleck marked her fourth union. Her previous marriages include a brief partnership with Ojani Noa (1997-1998). Marriage to Cris Judd (2001-2003) followed. Furthermore, a decade-long marriage to Marc Anthony (2004-2014) produced twins.

Between her marriages, Lopez maintained a high-profile relationship with former baseball player Alex Rodriguez from 2017 until their engagement ended in 2021.

The 55-year-old Lopez and 52-year-old Affleck’s divorce proceedings concluded a relationship that garnered significant public attention.

This is throughout its various phases, from their initial meeting in 2002 to their reunion and subsequent marriage in 2022.

His recent collaboration with Ridley Scott has now changed that narrative. Gladiator II has shattered expectations, becoming Washington’s highest-grossing film worldwide.

The movie has earned an impressive $320.2 million globally. This surpasses his previous record-holder, American Gangster, which grossed $267.9 million.

This milestone solidifies Gladiator II as Washington’s most financially successful film directed by Scott.

Domestically, American Gangster has maintained its position as Washington’s top-earning film for 17 years, with a domestic gross of $130.1 million.

However, this record may soon be eclipsed by Gladiator II, which has already reached $111.4 million domestically and continues to draw large audiences.

The success of Gladiator II marks a significant achievement in Washington’s career. It shows his enduring appeal and the powerful collaboration with Ridley Scott.
