										<content:encoded><![CDATA[
<p class="is-style-introduction">Keke Palmer has never been one to give a straight answer when a fun one is available, and she proved it again at Cannes Lions.</p>



<p>During Spotify&#8217;s &#8220;Conversations That Channel Culture&#8221; panel on Tuesday, host Jay Shetty asked the 32-year-old actress and podcaster whether she was serious about Sean Evans, the longtime host and producer of &#8220;Hot Ones,&#8221; the YouTube show where guests answer questions over increasingly spicy wings.</p>



<p>The rumors kicked off after Palmer and Evans, who&#8217;s about 40, were spotted having a long dinner at Lucali, a beloved Italian spot in Brooklyn, on June 12. Onlookers described the two as &#8220;locked in&#8221; on each other, with Evans appearing smitten. No PDA, just what outlets are calling an apparent dinner date.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img fetchpriority="high" decoding="async" height="557" width="1024" src="https://thoughtcatalog.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/keke-palmer-was-asked-about-sean-evans-dating-rumors-she-answered-one-wing-at-a-2.png" alt="Keke Palmer" class="wp-image-1202853" sizes="(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px" srcset="https://thoughtcatalog.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/keke-palmer-was-asked-about-sean-evans-dating-rumors-she-answered-one-wing-at-a-2.png 1828w, https://thoughtcatalog.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/keke-palmer-was-asked-about-sean-evans-dating-rumors-she-answered-one-wing-at-a-2.png?resize=384,209 384w, https://thoughtcatalog.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/keke-palmer-was-asked-about-sean-evans-dating-rumors-she-answered-one-wing-at-a-2.png?resize=640,348 640w, https://thoughtcatalog.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/keke-palmer-was-asked-about-sean-evans-dating-rumors-she-answered-one-wing-at-a-2.png?resize=768,418 768w, https://thoughtcatalog.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/keke-palmer-was-asked-about-sean-evans-dating-rumors-she-answered-one-wing-at-a-2.png?resize=1024,557 1024w, https://thoughtcatalog.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/keke-palmer-was-asked-about-sean-evans-dating-rumors-she-answered-one-wing-at-a-2.png?resize=1536,836 1536w, https://thoughtcatalog.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/keke-palmer-was-asked-about-sean-evans-dating-rumors-she-answered-one-wing-at-a-2.png?resize=1140,621 1140w" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">Baby, This Is Keke Palmer</figcaption></figure>



<p>But the two go way back. Palmer first appeared as a guest on &#8220;Hot Ones&#8221; in 2017, and over the years they&#8217;ve racked up plenty of flirty on-camera moments, including a kiss on a later episode. They recently bantered again on her podcast, &#8220;Baby, This Is Keke Palmer.&#8221;</p>



<p>So when Shetty pressed, she leaned all the way into the bit. She didn&#8217;t confirm they&#8217;re dating, but she didn&#8217;t shut it down either. &#8220;Oh, we&#8217;re talking about this? First of all, I love Sean Evans. I love Sean. Hey, Sean! That&#8217;s my guy. We&#8217;re hanging out, you know what I mean? You never know what could arise from there,&#8221; she said. Then she told Shetty they&#8217;re taking things &#8220;day by day, one wing at a time, so to speak.&#8221;</p>



<p>For a guy who built a career on spicy wings, that might be the most fitting non-answer she could have given.</p>

<p>Lila, 23, is Kate&#8217;s only child, born September 29, 2002 to Kate and Dazed Media co-founder Jefferson Hack. Her parents never married and separated amicably soon after her birth, but they&#8217;ve stayed close. Jefferson attended Kate&#8217;s 2011 wedding to Jamie Hince, and Lila was raised largely out of the spotlight in London and the Cotswolds, with the late Annabelle Neilson as her godmother and Lottie Moss as her aunt.</p>

<p>She landed her first major job in 2016, at 13, on the cover of Italian Vogue with her mother, shot by Mario Sorrenti. By 2018 she was the face of Marc Jacobs Beauty and on a solo Dazed cover. She made her runway debut for Miu Miu at Paris Fashion Week in 2021 and has since walked or shot for Fendi, Versace, Calvin Klein (echoing Kate&#8217;s 1992 CK campaign), and Victoria&#8217;s Secret. She signs with the Kate Moss Agency.</p>

<p>Lila was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes at age 8 and wears her insulin pump and continuous glucose monitor visibly at events, including the 2021 Fendi x Versace show and the 2022 Met Gala. In July 2025, Mattel made a one-of-a-kind Barbie in her likeness with realistic T1D devices and donated £20,000 to Breakthrough T1D in her name.</p>

					<description><![CDATA[This prayer shows how fear and doubt feel overwhelming alone, but courage comes from trusting God’s constant presence, as shared by Karin Hadadan.]]></description>
										<content:encoded><![CDATA[
<p class="is-style-introduction">This prayer shows how fear and doubt feel overwhelming alone, but courage comes from trusting God’s constant presence, as shared by Karin Hadadan. Similarly, Rebecca Simon’s <em><strong><a href="https://amzn.to/4pjx5WM">Finding God Every Day</a></strong></em> encourages relying on God in everyday challenges, helping us grow steady faith even in uncertain moments.</p>



<p>That feeling of fear often comes when we try to face a difficult path alone. It’s okay to admit when things feel too heavy, but there is so much peace in knowing that God is walking right there with you. If you’re needing a bit of quiet strength to move forward today,&nbsp;<em>join in this prayer and let Him lead the way.</em></p>



<p><strong>Dear God,</strong></p>



<p>I’m coming to you today because truthfully, I am afraid and discouraged about the path that lies ahead. There is so much uncertainty, and I’m doubting whether I can handle it all.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image aligncenter size-large is-resized"><a href="https://amzn.to/4pjx5WM"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" height="768" width="1024" src="https://thoughtcatalog.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/findinggodeverdayrebeccasimon.jpg?w=850" alt="" class="wp-image-1161810" style="aspect-ratio:1.3344108614837562;width:558px;height:auto" sizes="auto, (max-width: 558px) 100vw, 558px" srcset="https://thoughtcatalog.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/findinggodeverdayrebeccasimon.jpg 4032w, https://thoughtcatalog.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/findinggodeverdayrebeccasimon.jpg?resize=384,288 384w, https://thoughtcatalog.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/findinggodeverdayrebeccasimon.jpg?resize=640,480 640w, https://thoughtcatalog.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/findinggodeverdayrebeccasimon.jpg?resize=768,576 768w, https://thoughtcatalog.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/findinggodeverdayrebeccasimon.jpg?resize=1024,768 1024w, https://thoughtcatalog.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/findinggodeverdayrebeccasimon.jpg?resize=1536,1152 1536w, https://thoughtcatalog.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/findinggodeverdayrebeccasimon.jpg?resize=2048,1536 2048w, https://thoughtcatalog.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/findinggodeverdayrebeccasimon.jpg?resize=1140,855 1140w" /></a><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">For more about living courageously with God’s presence, <strong><a href="https://amzn.to/4pjx5WM">read books by Rebecca Simon.</a></strong></figcaption></figure>



<p>But I know that you have commanded me to be strong and courageous, not because I have what it takes within myself, but because you will be my anchor. Help me place my faith in your presence rather than my own abilities. Give me strength to face my fears and the power to move forward each moment despite the uncertainties. Thank you for promising that I am never alone in my challenges—you go before me, beside me, and behind me. Help me to act with courage today, not because I feel brave, but because I am trusting in your presence.</p>



<p><strong>Amen.</strong></p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[
<p class="is-style-introduction">Finding peace starts with surrendering our worries to the universe and trusting that God’s guidance will meet us in the middle of our uncertainty. Best-selling author of <em><a href="https://amzn.to/4pjx5WM">Finding God Every Day</a></em>, Rebecca Simon, reminds us to trust God’s timing, embrace patience, and lean on His presence through every season of life.</p>



<p><em>We often ask God to bring the right things into our lives. Sometimes the answer begins with him removing the wrong things first.</em></p>

<p>God,</p>



<p>As I move into this new season, I ask you to clear away what was never meant to stay in my life. You see the things I’ve been holding onto out of fear, or habit, or comfort. You know the relationships, the opportunities, and the patterns that no longer align with who I am becoming. I place them all in your hands.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image aligncenter is-resized"><a href="https://amzn.to/4pjx5WM"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1080" height="1350" src="https://thoughtcatalog.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/Rebecca_Simon_Book_Meme_Let_Go_TrustGod_GAM13.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-1163753" style="width:668px;height:auto" sizes="auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px" srcset="https://thoughtcatalog.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/Rebecca_Simon_Book_Meme_Let_Go_TrustGod_GAM13.jpg 1080w, https://thoughtcatalog.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/Rebecca_Simon_Book_Meme_Let_Go_TrustGod_GAM13.jpg?resize=384,480 384w, https://thoughtcatalog.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/Rebecca_Simon_Book_Meme_Let_Go_TrustGod_GAM13.jpg?resize=640,800 640w, https://thoughtcatalog.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/Rebecca_Simon_Book_Meme_Let_Go_TrustGod_GAM13.jpg?resize=768,960 768w, https://thoughtcatalog.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/Rebecca_Simon_Book_Meme_Let_Go_TrustGod_GAM13.jpg?resize=1024,1280 1024w" /></a><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">For more inspiration on ways to connect with God, <strong><a href="https://amzn.to/4pjx5WM">check out this books by Rebecca Simon</a></strong><br><br></figcaption></figure>



<p>If something is not from you, don’t let it follow me into what is next. Remove what drains me, expose what isn’t honest, and release me from anything that keeps me small. Give me the courage to let go of what I once prayed for if it is no longer part of your plan.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image aligncenter is-resized"><a href="https://amzn.to/4pjx5WM"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1080" height="1350" src="https://thoughtcatalog.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/rebecca_simon_god_and_man-quotes4.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-1163567" style="width:658px;height:auto" sizes="auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px" srcset="https://thoughtcatalog.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/rebecca_simon_god_and_man-quotes4.jpg 1080w, https://thoughtcatalog.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/rebecca_simon_god_and_man-quotes4.jpg?resize=384,480 384w, https://thoughtcatalog.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/rebecca_simon_god_and_man-quotes4.jpg?resize=640,800 640w, https://thoughtcatalog.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/rebecca_simon_god_and_man-quotes4.jpg?resize=768,960 768w, https://thoughtcatalog.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/rebecca_simon_god_and_man-quotes4.jpg?resize=1024,1280 1024w" /></a><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">For more inspiration on ways to connect with God, <strong><a href="https://amzn.to/4pjx5WM">check out this books by Rebecca Simon</a></strong><br><br></figcaption></figure>



<p>Make space in my life for what carries your peace, God. Align me with the people who speak life into me, the doors that move me forward, and the places where my spirit can finally rest. Help me trust that when you take something away, it is never to harm me — it is to protect me, redirect me, and prepare me.</p>



<p>I’m ready for what is aligned with your purpose.</p>



<p>Amen.<br><br></p>

<p>Insiders told Rob Shuter&#8217;s Naughty But Nice that Scott was deeply involved in mapping out the financial details ahead of the wedding. One source described him as a firm but gentle operator, &#8220;a fist in a velvet glove,&#8221; polite and warm until it&#8217;s time to protect Taylor&#8217;s interests.</p>

<p>The numbers explain the caution. Taylor&#8217;s net worth sits near $1.6 billion, while Kelce&#8217;s runs around $120 million from his NFL career, endorsements, media work, and investments. &#8220;When you&#8217;re dealing with nearly $2 billion in combined assets, a prenup isn&#8217;t a sign of mistrust,&#8221; a source said. &#8220;It&#8217;s smart business.&#8221;</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[
<p>Gratitude is a transformative practice, inviting us to celebrate the little joys in life and nurture a deeper connection to ourselves and others. Each zodiac sign brings its own unique strengths and perspectives, shaping the way we experience and express gratitude. Here’s how you can cultivate more gratitude based on your astrological traits.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="aries">Aries:</h2>



<p>Your fiery spirit thrives on action and boldness. Channel this energy into acts of gratitude by initiating small gestures for those you appreciate—a heartfelt text or a thoughtful surprise. Gratitude becomes a rewarding adventure when you take the lead.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="taurus">Taurus:</h2>



<p>Your love for comfort and beauty makes you a natural at savoring life’s pleasures. Create a gratitude ritual, like journaling about the textures, scents, and flavors that bring you joy. Let your senses guide your appreciation for the present moment.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="gemini">Gemini:</h2>



<p>Your curious mind constantly seeks new perspectives. Use this to your advantage by reflecting on lessons learned from past experiences or conversations. Write a gratitude letter to someone who has inspired you—it will deepen your connections and nurture your social nature.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="cancer">Cancer:</h2>



<p>Your nurturing heart thrives on emotional connection. Express your gratitude through thoughtful, personal actions, like cooking a meal for loved ones or writing them a handwritten note. Gratitude feels most fulfilling when shared in meaningful ways.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="leo">Leo:</h2>



<p>Your radiant energy loves to uplift and be uplifted. Focus on complimenting others and acknowledging their efforts. By celebrating the brilliance in those around you, you’ll create a ripple effect of gratitude that brightens your own world.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="virgo">Virgo:</h2>



<p>Your detail-oriented nature often notices what others overlook. Use this gift to appreciate the small, overlooked blessings in your daily life. Practice mindful gratitude by pausing to reflect on the tiny wins and acts of kindness that often go unnoticed.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="libra">Libra:</h2>



<p>Your quest for harmony makes gratitude a natural fit. Find balance by expressing thanks during both joyful and challenging times. Create a gratitude jar where you can deposit little notes of appreciation to remind yourself of life’s beauty.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="scorpio">Scorpio:</h2>



<p>Your depth of emotion allows you to transform even pain into gratitude. Reflect on how past challenges have shaped your strength and resilience. Gratitude for your journey will empower you to embrace the present with renewed passion.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="sagittarius">Sagittarius:</h2>



<p>Your adventurous spirit craves growth and exploration. Practice gratitude by keeping a travel or experience journal, noting the places, people, and lessons that have enriched your life. Celebrate the adventure that gratitude invites into your heart.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="capricorn">Capricorn:</h2>



<p>Your drive for achievement often focuses on the future. Pause to appreciate how far you’ve come. Create a list of milestones you’re proud of and the people who’ve supported you along the way. Gratitude will ground your ambitions in fulfillment.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="aquarius">Aquarius:</h2>



<p>Your innovative mind sees the big picture. Use this to recognize how interconnected we all are. Volunteer for a cause you care about or express gratitude to your community. Your vision will inspire gratitude in yourself and others.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="pisces">Pisces:</h2>



<p>Your intuitive, compassionate soul finds gratitude in connection. Practice by meditating on the love and kindness you’ve experienced, even in fleeting moments. Let your imagination turn gratitude into a daily source of healing and inspiration.</p>



<p>Embracing gratitude aligns us with the beauty of life and the abundance within. No matter your sign is, gratitude is your pathway to a richer, more fulfilling existence.</p>

<p>June 5 to 7, 2026, Palermo, Sicily. A three-day star-studded wedding celebration, reported at £1.5 million ($1.9 million), at the 18th-century Villa Valguarnera, known as &#8220;little Versailles.&#8221; Lipa wore a custom Chanel haute couture gown by Matthieu Blazy with a 25,000-feather train and a cathedral veil that took 3,220 hours to embroider. Elton John performed &#8220;Your Song.&#8221; Charli XCX and Donatella Versace were guests. The party ran until 6 a.m. and ended with a 10-minute fireworks display.

The couple checked into Villa Treville, the 15-suite cliffside estate once owned by Franco Zeffirelli for 35 years, where junior suites start above $5,000 a night in peak season. They were photographed lounging under blue fringed umbrellas on the waterfront terrace, swimming off the rocks at the hotel&#8217;s private beach club, and floating on matching pink-and-white inflatable rings in the sea.</p>

<p>Payne and Cheryl welcomed Bear on March 22, 2017, and announced his birth days later with a Polaroid of Payne holding his newborn son. &#8220;It&#8217;s a moment that I will never forget for the rest of my life and my favourite memory I have so far,&#8221; he wrote at the time.</p>

<p class="is-style-introduction">Bernie Sanders <a href="https://apnews.com/article/bernie-sanders-ai-public-ownership-57b9f20d96490083e2749adba0f13977" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">introduced legislation Thursday</a> that would give the government a 50% ownership stake in any AI company with more than $200 million in annual sales. The American AI Sovereign Wealth Fund Act would funnel an expected 5% dividend back to the public, which he says works out to $1,000 a year for every American.</p>

<p>&#8220;We&#8217;re not buying it. We&#8217;re getting it,&#8221; he told Fortune and other reporters, arguing the public built these tools in the first place. &#8220;Every tweet that you send out, every email that you send out, every article that you write, that&#8217;s part of AI.&#8221;</p>



<p>There&#8217;s one obvious problem: most of the biggest names, including OpenAI and Anthropic, aren&#8217;t profitable yet. Sanders isn&#8217;t worried. &#8220;The American people are not going to lose any money, because we are going to be owning half of the stock.&#8221;</p>



<p>He also met privately with OpenAI&#8217;s Sam Altman this month. Altman agreed the public should hold equity in AI companies but wouldn&#8217;t back a 50% stake. Sanders left the meeting convinced the two sides want different things: &#8220;Their goal is to make as much money as they can, not concerned about the impact it has on the American people.&#8221;</p>



<p>Supporters say the underlying logic is sound. AI is trained on public data and human creativity, so treating advanced models as partly a public commons isn&#8217;t a fringe idea. Scholars, and at times OpenAI and Anthropic themselves, have floated some version of public equity or shared upside, and Elon Musk has argued for a universal high income to offset AI-driven job loss. A public stake plus governance rights, the argument goes, gives ordinary people a seat at the table on safety and deployment instead of leaving those calls to a handful of billionaires.</p>



<p>There&#8217;s also precedent. Sovereign wealth funds exist in 67 countries, including Norway and the UAE, and in U.S. states like Texas and New Mexico, where they&#8217;ve mostly funded education from oil and mineral revenue. Sanders&#8217; bill bars using the fund to bail out failing AI companies and sets transparency and ethics rules for the commissioners.</p>



<p>Critics call the 50% mechanism the problem. Handing the government half the equity once a company crosses $200 million in sales is, in their view, an enormous tax on success that would chill founding and investment in U.S. AI and push leadership toward less-regulated competitors like China. Many of the biggest labs aren&#8217;t profitable, so a 5% dividend on a $7 trillion paper valuation could force asset sales or turn hype into a fiscal promise the fund can&#8217;t keep.</p>

<p>Governance is the other flashpoint. The independent commission would get voting power and board seats with a broad mandate covering worker welfare, safety, environment, and solvency, which critics say blurs the line between investor and regulator and invites political interference. Defining what counts as an &#8220;AI business&#8221; inside companies that already bake AI into everything is its own legal mess, and constitutional challenges on takings and due process grounds are widely expected.</p>



<p>Even some who like the spirit of the bill think 50% plus control is too much. Altman&#8217;s willingness to discuss public equity in a milder form is the tell: the idea of shared upside has traction, but Sanders&#8217; version is the maximalist take, and that&#8217;s where the fight will be.</p>
