She showed off her body in styles that she said were “way above” her knees.

Natalie (@natalieyco) shared the age-positive message in an Instagram video.

The influencer, who urged people to fight back against the stigmas of aging, explained that she often likes to start with her wardrobe.

“I know I talk about my age a lot, but that’s what my platform is about,” she said.

“My goal is to help inspire us, women and men, and remind us that growing older is really how we feel inside.”

The 55-year-old showed off her white off-the-shoulder dress, which she paired with matching white heels and sunglasses.

“In two months I will be 56 years old. I will still wear dresses above my knees as long as I can!” she said.

Natalie explained that she enjoyed starting her birthday with a glamorous outfit.

“I like to capture every birthday with a photo of me wearing a dress that makes me feel alive,” she said.

“I don’t know yet what I’ll wear this year! But I guarantee it will be above the knees!”

People responded and shared words of encouragement.

I am a size 10 with 36G cups – I have traveled from Abercrombie winter to spring, I feel so cute and confident in the pink dress

“As my mother always said, if you’ve got it, show it!” said one inspired viewer.

“I’m 62 and wear the same size as my daughters aged 26 and 29. I don’t wear things that are clearly too young for me, but I still rock leather, faux fur and above-the-knee skirts and dresses,” they added .

“I’m 6 feet tall,” so most skirts and dresses are short anyway. I know when it’s time to let go of that part of my style, but I’m not there yet!”

Some thought she didn’t even look that old.

“If my legs looked like this you would have to force pants on me,” said one viewer.

She said she would continue to wear above-the-knee dresses for as long as possible

The English hitmaker always puts on a show for fans.

And this sometimes includes a characteristic knee slide.

However, Lipa seemed to go too far while rehearsing for the Grammys.

The singer was caught in a video sliding across the ground on her knees.

This was accompanied by a compilation of Lipa knee sliding during shows.

Then, during the Grammy rehearsals, both legs were wrapped in padding.

And she grinned at the camera: “My knees are so f***ed!”

But Chelsea fans remained convinced that Lipa's idol must have been Stamford Bridge hero Hazard.

The Belgian, 33, won two Premier League titles and two Europa Leagues during a glorious seven-season spell in London.

Hazard scored an impressive 110 goals in 352 appearances for his beloved Blues before moving to Real Madrid in 2019 for £142 million.

And almost every time he hit the back of the net, Hazard charged towards the corner flag before performing a long knee slide for the fans.

The constant pressure on his legs seemed to take its toll as he finally secured a dream move to Real.

Hazard scored just seven goals in 76 games over four seasons due to injury before retiring in October.

And Chelsea supporters couldn't resist comparing their hero to Lipa and her own knee problems.

One said: “She thinks she is Eden Hazard.”

Another stated: “I love you queen but you can never be him (Hazard).”

Other football fans also got involved.

One commented: “The shape is impeccable, Thierry Henry would be proud.”

Another added: “More knee slides than Darwin Nunez.”

It means ferocious predators built for strength and speed – such as T.rex, allosaurus and velociraptor – may have staggered in pain, just like affected humans.

Fossils showed signs of fused vertebrae and strange growths on the leg bones of three theropods unearthed in South America.

Study author Dr. Mattia Baiano, from the National University of Rio Negro in Argentina, thinks some giant dinosaurs developed arthritis or even gout.

Both conditions cause painful swelling in the joints and can be caused by injuries, old age or obesity.

Backs and hindlimbs were the dinosaurs' biggest problem areas, but they also suffered bone damage in their jaws and arms.

Dr. Baiano wrote in the journal BMC Ecology and Evolution: “A large number of theropod specimens show signs of some kind of disease.

“Damage to the weight-bearing bones would hinder feeding activities or make them easy targets for predators.”

The dinosaurs in the study were 70 million to 90 million year old abelisaurids, which came just before the Tyrannosaurs.

Their later cousin T.rex became the king of the dinosaurs.

It could grow up to 12 meters in length and reach a speed of 40 km/h, despite weighing five to eight tons.

The debate over the appropriateness of a possible marriage between Charles and Camilla raged back and forth throughout 2004.

Could a future head of the Church of England marry a divorcee – something that had caused so much trouble for the royal family in the 1930s?

Could a future king who had admitted adultery be allowed a second marriage by the Church?

According to author Tina Brown, spiritual opinion began to shift in favor of the speculated marriage in November.

The former Archbishop of Canterbury, George Carey, stated that this was the ‘natural thing’.

Yet, Brown writes, it seems to have been an “irritating social incident” rather than a canonical opinion that ultimately led Charles to propose.

Edward van Cutsem’s wedding to Lady Tamara Grovesnor was the society wedding of the year. But godfather Prince Charles was missing on the big day

The reason was the wedding between Edward Van Cutsem, son of family friends, and the daughter of the Duke of Westminster in Chester Cathedral.

Edward, a godson of Charles, had been a page boy at his marriage to Diana.

It was named association wedding of the year. with guests such as Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip, Charles and Camilla and William and Harry.

“Charles and Camilla were informed of the seating arrangements the weekend before the wedding,” Brown writes in her best-selling book The Palace Papers.

‘The arrangements showed that Mrs Parker Bowles was relegated to the social margins of the event.’

Camilla, she writes, had expected to sit directly behind Charles, who would be at the front with the queen and Philip.

‘But no, that ‘Dutch Cow’ as Camilla reportedly called it [mother of the groom] Emilie Van Cutsem had locked her on the other side of the cathedral, with the bride’s friends in the back, and told her she could not enter or leave through the main entrance.’

A courtier told the Daily Mail at the time that this had ‘sent Camilla over the edge’.

Ms Van Cutsem claimed she was adhering to protocol and refused to give Camilla an upgrade – and Camilla, Brown writes, ‘refused to be understanding’.

“She wouldn’t be humiliated in front of all of Charles’s snotty inner circle and, more importantly, the royal family.

‘The prince had to choose between attending the wedding without her or rejecting his best friends and his godson.

“It was Camilla’s line in the sand.”

Fortunately, a solution presented itself. On the day of the wedding, Charles had to visit Warminster barracks in Wiltshire to meet the families of Black Watch soldiers. Three members of the regiment had been killed in a suicide bombing in Iraq.

At this point Camilla’s 87-year-old father, Major Bruce Shand, comes into the story, according to royal biographer Penny Junor.

Writing in The Duchess: The Untold Story, says Junor

‘Although he loved the prince very much, he felt he was weak and worried about how vulnerable he had made Camilla by allowing her to live in limbo.

“He took the prince aside and said, ‘I want to meet my maker knowing that my daughter is all right.’

Charles listened and acknowledged what he had to say. It was, he admitted, a nonsensical and insulting position for Camilla, and one that others have also suggested she found deeply disturbing.

After all, without marriage she had no status – and Charles knew he had to make things right.

He asked Camilla to marry him that new year on bent knee.

It may be a little hard to remember, with all the injuries, career detours and puzzling losses, but there was a time when anything seemed possible for Canadian tennis.

Every time a tennis fan looked up, it seemed like another hugely talented or spirited Canadian had made it to a Grand Slam final. Bianca Andreescu even won one, beating Serena Williams in the 2019 US Open when she was still a teenager, playing with a style so creative it left tennis aesthetes salivating.

Lately, with all the bad knees (Denis Shapovalov and Felix Auger-Aliassime), stress fractures (Leylah Fernandez), and the mental pain (Milos Raonic and Andreescu) that so many players are grappling with these days, even Fernandez’s unlikely run to the 2021 U.S. Open final can feel like it was a long time ago.

And then there was a day like Wednesday at Wimbledon, when the rain finally stopped long enough to play tennis outside, allowing Shapovalov and Raonic to show why there had been such a fuss in the first place. Both came back from a set down to win in four sets, giving Shapovalov a chance to reminisce about what it had meant to him to be a junior player from a country best known for its prowess in sports with ice (hockey and curling) and watching Raonic and Eugenie Bouchard go almost all the way on the Wimbledon grass.

“It really made me and Felix believe that it is possible as a Canadian,” said Shapovalov, after beating Radu Albot of Moldova 5-7, 6-4, 6-2, 6-2 in a game that started on Monday. ‘And I’m sure the generations, you know, follow me, Felix, Bianca. Leylah, I’m sure there’s a lot more belief in the country that it’s possible even when the country is cold or mostly winter.”

Apparently the Canadians lacked the string of champions that Sweden, hardly a temperate country, produced in the 1970s, 1980s and 1990s, such as Bjorn Borg, Mats Wilander and Stefan Edberg.

Shapovalov and Raonic, who played and won his first Grand Slam match in two and a half years on Monday, defeated Austria’s Denis Novak 6-7 (5), 6-4, 7-6(5), 6-1, will get back to it on thursday. Both men play second round matches, just like Fernandez. Andreescu will also be there and will finally play her first round match against Hungary’s Anna Bondar.

Auger-Aliassime, who has been battling a sore knee all year, lost in the first round to the All England Club for the second consecutive year. The nagging injury and final loss count as major disappointments for Auger-Aliassime, who broke out in his late teens and whose powerful serve and movement should allow him to excel on grass.

But a Wimbledon schedule full of Canadians is what the country’s top athletes were after as they set out to make Canada a top-level tennis country nearly 20 years ago. Aside from long, cold winters, Canada seemed to have everything a country needed to achieve great things in tennis: wealth, diversity, and a commitment to spending money building facilities and importing top coaches.

It built a tennis center in Montreal and satellite facilities in other major cities and began focusing on early childhood and teen development. It hired Louis Borfiga, a leading French tennis genius who was Borg’s batting partner, to oversee the player’s development.

Blessed with the good fortune of players with natural talent and parents willing to support it, Canada had Bouchard and Raonic rolling in the mid-2010s and Shapovalov, Andreescu and Auger-Aliassime were tearing up the junior rankings, with Fernandez not far behind.

The success – last year Shapovalov and Auger-Aliassime led Canada to its first Davis Cup title – and the struggles have led to camaraderie among the players. They know when the others are playing, even if they are not in the same tournament.

“I’m guilty of following the results of all my fellow Canadians,” said Fernandez, who just a few years ago recalled Auger-Aliassime training a few lanes away in Montreal and thought, “Oh, this is inspiring .”

When Fernandez was injured last year, one of the first text messages she received was from Andreescu, who has seemingly been battling a variety of ailments since winning the 2019 US Open. Andreescu told Fernandez that she was there for her whatever she needed and that Fernandez was going through a rough time but would get through it.

Earlier this year, when Andreescu rolled her ankle and suffered a seemingly devastating injury during the Miami Open, Fernandez immediately sent support back. “I was like ‘Bianca, you’re strong, you’re coming back, you’re a great tennis player and a great person.'”

On Wednesday, Shapovalov and Raonic found each other in the locker room, trying to deal with the rain delays that have disrupted the tournament all week.

Raonic said he had forgotten about his old routine because it had been so long since he had dealt with something like this. At first he tried to keep moving to keep loose, but then thought maybe he was burning too much energy.

He sat down with Shapovalov, who passed the time with his coach by answering animal trivia questions. Raonic jumped into the game and said everyone was entertained to learn which sea creature can breathe through its butt. (Turtle). There was also a spirited debate about the deadly power of a mosquito versus that of sharks. Shapovalov firmly believed that sharks are scarier than a malaria-carrying insect.

Finally, the rain subsided along with the zoology debate. Then it was time for Raonic to get back on the field and get the kind of win that once happened all the time, exhausting Novak with his explosive serve and big forehand. Later in the afternoon, when Shapovalov found his rhythm on those smooth, graceful strokes, Albot didn’t stand a chance.

As a symbol of how weak Canada’s tennis effort has become, both Shapovalov and Raonic could easily not have been at the All England Club this year.

Shapovalov has been limping off and on in recent months and then had to cut short his training sessions on grass the pain became too intense.

Raonic said his injury struggles in recent years had made him accept the idea that his life had begun after tennis. But he drove past a tennis court near his home in the Bahamas every day, or watched tennis on television while he worked out at a local gym and thought he might as well give it another shot.

On Wednesday, he said he was annoyed with himself for not enjoying the moment anymore, back at the All England Club, playing in the Grand Slam where he had his greatest success and helped make Canada believe. In his words, it was easy to discover a bigger message about the often fleeting nature of success, in a single day or over an era.

“You just get caught up in the whole process of competing and trying to find a way to win and that passes very quickly,” he said. “Then you can’t really enjoy the game.”

Cate Blanchett falls to her knees and wails in excitement after winning the award – as confetti explodes around the beloved actor

Cate Blanchett showed her funny side this weekend by sharing a hilarious acceptance video where she celebrates after winning an ironic award.

The Aviator star, 54, was crowned the ‘winner’ of the ‘Cate Blanchett Award for Good Acting’ for her work on last year’s psychological drama Tár.

The Melbourne native accepted the cheeky accolade in good humor by happily thanking US pop culture podcast Las Culturistas for bestowing the honor on her.

Blanchett shared a video with the hosts of her party of ecstatically throwing confetti across her bedroom while in her pajamas.

The blonde beauty can’t seem to wipe the smile off her face as she jumps up and down with joy at winning the hilarious prize.

She has tears in her eyes as she drops to her knees in joy and thanks the American comedians for recognizing her hard work on the Golden Globe-winning film.

In January, Cate revealed that her role in Tár was so draining emotionally and physically that she thought about retiring.

Appearing on The Sunday Project, the 54-year-old Australian actress admitted that after the experience she considered quitting the industry for good.

“I think it was because it was such a physical role, the echoes of it are still with me and I think, like many other audience members, I need time to process it,” she said of Tár.

‘Of course I’m lucky enough to work with some amazing directors who have changed my life, but when it all comes together like this, it sticks with you.

“So I never want to work again,” she added with a laugh.

Blanchett, while appearing on The Graham Norton Show, described the film as a “great cancellation culture story.”

It comes after the actress, who plays conductor Lydia Tár in the drama, took home the Best Actress award at the Golden Globes in January for her work on the film.

The talented global acting icon shares four children with her husband, Australian playwright Andrew Upton.

In January, Cate revealed that her role in Tár was so emotionally and physically draining that she thought about retiring.

Singer Bebe Rexha was punched in the face by a telephone at a concert in New York City on Sunday after someone at the event launched the projectile at her.

The 33-year-old singer/songwriter played a concert at The Rooftop on Pier 17 on Sunday during her Best F’n Night Of My Life tour.

As seen in a Twitter video, the Back to You artist was seen singing and making her way to the front of the stage in a purple ensemble, her blonde locks hanging down.

As the Brooklyn resident faced the audience, a phone was seen charging in from the crowd and punching her right in the face.

After a moment of fright, she fell to her knees with her head down as several crewmen in the wings rushed to her aid.

Video was shared by several attendees of the Big Apple concert on Sunday as one under the handle @RossBernaud posted a video of the entertainerwhose full name is Bleta Rexha, who was helped off stage after the hurtful incident.

As she was attended to by medics and led behind the auditorium curtain, she waved to the audience.

“This is Bebe Rexha being rushed out of the concert hall here in NYC after someone threw a horrible phone and smacked her face as she left the stage,” the Twitter user captioned the clip. “We all had a great time and so did Bebe, we all had a great time, I mean who would even do that??? We hope you are well @BebeRexha.’

A tweet from the account Pop Base read: “Bebe Rexha’s mom reveals she had to have three stitches after someone in the audience threw a phone at her head during her concert.”

A number of Rexha’s fans took to Twitter to speak out about the senseless attack on the pop star.

“Bebe is literally one of the sweetest and most unproblematic people in the music industry, she doesn’t deserve this… some of you really need to leave her alone,” one fan wrote.

Another fan of the Baby, I’m Jealous artist wrote, “Absolutely awesome show ruined by a fan throwing his phone at @BebeRexha, hopefully she’s fine after that.”

One fan complained about the lack of decorum on the part of the fan who threw the phone on stage, while another wondered why and how something like this could happen.

“Fans” suck so much because what do you mean Bebe Rexha had to go to the goddamn hospital and got stitches in her head because someone threw a phone at her and it hit her???? What the f***???’ said the fan.

It wasn’t immediately clear if, or for how long, the scary incident and resulting injury would sideline Rexha from her tour.

She has three upcoming dates scheduled for the week, including a June 20 date at The Fillmore in Philadelphia; June 21 at the Fillmore Silver Spring in Silver Spring, Maryland; and June 23 at the Tabernacle in Atlanta.
