Carnival Goes Hollywood
The Salvador Carnival kicked off with a bang as Ivete Sangalo, a Brazilian singer, infused the festivities with a touch of Hollywood glamour.

Fernanda Torres: Hollywood's New Darling
Fernanda Torres may have missed out on the Best Actress Oscar for her performance in 'Ainda Estou Aqui,' but she's far from a loser. In fact, Torres is quickly becoming a favorite in Hollywood circles. Her dedicated promotional campaign for the film has caught the eye of American directors and producers. While Mikey Madison took home the award for 'Anora,' Torres's hard work is paying off, potentially leading to future roles in American productions.
Timothée Chalamet Seeks Solace
The Oscar spotlight can be intense, and after a recent "snub," Timothée Chalamet has sought refuge in a picturesque French village. Far from the hustle and bustle of Manhattan and the bright lights of Hollywood, Chalamet is unwinding with his family and reportedly joined by Kylie Jenner. This tranquil escape offers a chance to recharge and escape the pressures of fame.
"Sometimes, you just need to get away from it all," a source close to Chalamet told reporters. "The French countryside is the perfect place to do that."
