Pictured in a floral Gucci dress, with her trademark flowing auburn locks, Lorde talks about how her life has changed since finding fame, as reported by News.
Comedian Chris Rock’s estranged wife Malaak Compton-Rock, who he separated from in 2014 is demanding a huge chunk of his $70million fortune and she just may get it because their pre-nup has expired.
According to NYT’s PageSix, Malaak is asking for half his fortune so she can maintain a Champagne -and-caviar lifestyle, a copy of her divorce papers reveals.
Malaak said she gave up her career in 1996 to become a full time stay-at-home mum after she met and married the actor, court papers say. She says since she gave up her career to take care of the home while his career blossomed, she deserved half the fortune he made in those years.

Malaak Compton-Rock is demanding a huge hunk of her husband’s $70 million fortune so she can maintain a Champagne-and-caviar lifestyle, a copy of her divorce papers reveals.
The stay-at-home mom married the ex-“Saturday Night Live” star in 1996 after they met at the Essence Awards while she was working in public relations.
She soon gave up her career and became a full-time mother, court papers say.
Compton-Rock, 46, now spends much of her time caring for the couple’s kids — Lola Simone, 13, and Zahra Savannah, 11 — in their posh home in Alpine, NJ, where their neighbors include singer Mary J. Blige and Yankee pitcher CC Sabathia.
Both parties agree their prenup has expired under a sunset clause, meaning they could face a battle over the eight-figure family bank account, a filing in Bergen County court shows.
The papers also say she and Rock, 50, have already agreed to 50-50 child custody.
Compton-Rock spends her free time on the charity circuit. She runs a group called The Angel Rock Project and in 2008 appeared as a judge on the ABC reality show “Oprah’s Big Give,” where she clinked Champagne glasses with actress Vivica A. Fox and “Sopranos” star Lorraine Bracco.
The court filings say Compton-Rock deserves a payout “commensurate with the marital standard of living” because of all her child-rearing and charitable endeavors.
You share EVERYTHING in a marriage. Meaning that half of the $70million fortuneis hers

Donatella Panayiotou decided enough was enough and cut contact, later allegedly turning him down at his own birthday party in Los Angeles, just moments after Iggy, 25, had presented him with a car as a present.Nick, 30, popped the question to the blonde star two weeks ago and gave her with a stunning $500,000 diamond engagement ring, but Donatella reckons she could have picked a nicer one. OUCH!
Iggy posted a photograph of the ring on Instagram, along with snaps of her kissing her husband-to-be looking happier than ever.
Here’s what we’re being told by a person close to Karrueche “Chris is very unpredictable, he’s nice one day and then mad the next. It’s not his fault he has (bipolar disorder).
The tipster continued, “Last time he came into contact with Karrueche, he frightened her and he broke out her window. Chris promised to stay away from her and she’s just holding him to that promise. The restraining order is just (a little) insurance that he keeps his word.”We’re told Karrueche’s attorneys will make their filing this week in LA county.
The boss Ahmed, whose case is still pending, allegedly instructed Fonerin to use his cellphone to record him setting fire to the 38-year-old man.
Ahmed, 24, allegedly used lighter fluid and a box of matches to start the fire, and is allegedly heard on the video saying “do that s—,” according to the criminal complaint.
Lorenzo Fonerin, 23, was working at a bodega with Suliman Ahmed on September 23, 2012, in East New York where Hand, who suffers from a severe mental illness, was sleeping on the sidewalk.
Hand was woken up by bystanders telling him he was on fire, and Fonerin then tried to put out the blaze with water.
“I was asleep when I found out my son was on fire … the burns on his lower back were so bad it looked like leather,” said Tasheen Hand’s mother Priscilla during her victim impact statement in Brooklyn Supreme Court, where she urged the judge to throw the book at Lorenzo Fonerin.
“The defendant poured water on my son, but I would have been happier if he just asked him to leave or just used that same cellphone to call police. Pouring water didn’t save him,” Hand said.
Her son suffered severe burns on over 30 percent of his body, and was in a medically induced coma for two weeks.
Hand said her son, who was not present at the sentencing, is stared at by strangers on the street for his “alligator-like skin.”
Prosecutor Cary Fischer asked Justice Deborah Dowling to sentence Fonerin to 20 years because this was the “most horrific” case he’d worked on in 12 years on the job, aside from one child abuse case.

Omar al-Bashir (centre) lines up with Congo’s Denis Sasso-Nguesso (right) and and Abdelkader Taleb Oumar of the Sahrawi Arab Republic during a photo call at the African Union Summit in Sandton, South Africa on June 14, 2015
A South African judge yesterday Sunday June 14th barred Sudanese President Omar al-Bashir from leaving the country after the International Criminal Court called for him to be arrested at the AU summit in Johannesburg.
It added that South Africa diplomats had been pressed last month to arrest Bashir if he attended the summit, but that they had replied they faced “competing obligations” over the issue. Bashir, 71, seized power in Sudan in an Islamist-backed coup in 1989.
The ICC indictments relate to the western Sudanese region of Darfur, which erupted into conflict in 2003 when ethnic insurgents launched a campaign against Bashir’s Arab-dominated government, complaining of marginalisation.
The United Nations says 300,000 people have been killed in the conflict and another 2.5 million forced to flee their homes.
Khartoum, however, disputes the figures, estimating the death toll at no more than 10,000. “South Africa has an obligation to arrest him,” Johannesburg-based rights lawyer Gabriel Shumba said. “Failure to do so puts them in the same bracket as other African regimes who have no respect for human rights. It’s actually a test for South Africa.”
As Judge Fabricius gave his ruling and said the court would meet again on Monday, the summit opened five hours late with Zuma not mentioning the issue in his opening remarks.

Andrew Milburn was texting his girlfriend at Leeds General Infirmary on Friday night just before starting his night shift. To prove he was at work, he sent her a Snapchat image of a corridor on the hospital’s Clarendon Wing.
He said:
“Unbeknown at the time it appears that I captured a ghost figure in the corridors.
“I have since put this picture on Facebook, it has received thousands of likes and comments and has been shared as far as America.
“It has also been shared on to paranormal investigator groups, many of which believe the picture is real.”
Andrew, who has recently returned to work after a career break, says the room the ghostly figure appears to be walking into is where the switchboard works.
He said a number of colleagues at the hospital have heard footsteps at the spot when no-one is there.
“There have been a few odd things,” he said. “Now people are a bit scared, and apprehensive about going to the loo.”
He said not everyone believes him though, he said some people think the picture was photoshopped but he said he didn’t make it up.

Someone wants money from him: Kylie Jenner‘s ‘boyfriend’ was spotted on Friday test driving a bright red Bugatti, a luxury vehicle which can retail in excess of $1.5 million and his photo in the car was posted in the media, which I guess made the woman who sued him for sexual assault in 2011 remind him that he still owed her $25,000.
Model and video vixen Allison Brown sued Tyga over a wild 2011 music video shoot for his single Make It Nasty where she claimed she was plied with alcohol, forced to appear topless on camera, and dry humped by some dude in a rabbit suit. They settled the case out of court and Tyga promised to pay her $50,000.
Allison Brown is now alleging that the 25-year-old has failed to pay the full $50,000 that he owes her.
