This week in entertainment news, we've got a mix of lifestyle insights, tragic losses, and acts of kindness. From Meghan Markle's approach to weeknight dinners to the passing of a music pioneer and Kylie Jenner's generosity, here's a quick rundown.
Meghan Markle's "Beautiful" Takeout
Meghan Markle is making headlines again, this time for her approach to… Chinese takeout? In an interview with People magazine, the Duchess of Sussex revealed her penchant for plating her Friday night takeaway "beautifully." She emphasized the importance of balance over perfection and doing things "with love," even when it comes to a casual meal. The interview serves as promotion for her upcoming Netflix cookery show, where she hopes to inspire viewers to embrace a similar philosophy. It seems even royalty enjoys a relaxed night in!
“I will encourage viewers to strive for 'balance, not perfection' and doing things - even, it seems, a Friday night take-out - 'with love',” Markle said.
Remembering DJ Funk
The music world is mourning the loss of DJ Funk, a Chicago native and a true pioneer of the "ghetto house" genre. He passed away at the age of 54 after a battle with cancer. His family had previously set up a GoFundMe account to help with his medical expenses. DJ Funk, whose real name was Charles Chambers, leaves behind a significant legacy in the electronic music scene.
Kylie Jenner's Act of Kindness
In a touching display of support, Kylie Jenner is covering the funeral expenses for her friend Jesús Guerrero, a celebrity hairdresser. A source close to the businesswoman told 'People' that she wants to alleviate any financial stress for Guerrero's family during this difficult time. Guerrero's relatives have also created a GoFundMe page to raise additional funds.
No "Normal People" Sequel?

Éanna Hardwicke, one of the show's stars, recently told the BBC that he's not a fan of "rehashing things," although he understands why some viewers would like to revisit the characters. So, it seems the story of Connell and Marianne may remain where it is – in our imaginations.
