Highs and lows

It is hard to believe that this is our last issue of 2021. What a year it has been with Covid still dominating and determining most of what we do. On a lighter note, we take a look back at some of the biggest moments in the world of entertainment.

You would have to live under a rock to not know that Kim Kardashian filed for divorce from her husband Kanye. I was not shocked at this one to be honest, she has turned into a serious businesswoman and is on her way to becoming a lawyer while his behaviour gets more erratic. Kanye, who goes by Ye now by the way, has been reluctant to let her go and shared it with the audience at his last concert by singing that Kim should come back to him.

Britney Spears was finally awarded her freedom after a judge suspended her father from legally overseeing her life. Back in 2008, after Britney suffered from mental health issues, her father was appointed her legal guardian. Her fans have been very vocal of their support for Britney and her quest to gain her freedom and they were delighted with the verdict.

Bennifer fans rejoiced when speculation that Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez had rekindled their romance was confirmed after they went public at the Venice Film Festival. The pair were an item back in 2002 for two years, breaking up just before they were supposed to get married in 2004. They met on the set of the movie “Gigli” which they starred in together.
