President Biden delivered a mix of jokes and sharp criticism at the presumptive Republican nominee, former President Donald J. Trump, at the Gridiron Club dinner in Washington on Saturday.

“One candidate is too old and mentally unfit to be president,” Biden said. “The other man is me.”

It was the first time since he became president that he had attended the dinner, a light-hearted evening in a series of high-profile gatherings in Washington where politicians and journalists don white gloves and bow ties to lightly roast each other through speeches and skits. The Gridiron Club, one of the oldest journalism associations in Washington, hosted the dinner at the Grand Hyatt in Washington.

However, Biden did not just focus on his opponent. He saved time for an investigation into Republicans in Congress and their efforts to oust him and his Homeland Security Secretary, Alejandro N. Mayorkas.

“Republicans would rather fail at impeachment than succeed at anything else,” he said. Referring to Leo Varadkar, the Irish prime minister, who was sitting at his table, Mr Biden said: “He took one look at Congress and asked for another Guinness.”

But during the roughly nine-minute remarks, Mr. Biden also struck a more serious tone, issuing stark warnings about threats to democracy. His aides hope that emphasizing the stakes of the November election will draw voters to the polls amid low approval ratings for Biden.

“Freedom is under attack,” Biden said. “The lies about the 2020 election, the plot to overthrow it and the embrace of the January 6 insurrection pose the greatest threat to our democracy since the Civil War.”

“A poison coursing through the veins of our democracy,” Mr. Biden continued. “Disinformation everywhere. There is a toxic cycle of anger and conspiracy.”

The president also addressed Mr. Trump’s recent statement about not defending NATO allies who do not pay their dues to the alliance.

“Democracy and freedom are literally under attack,” Biden said. “Putin is on the march in Europe. My pastor bows to him and says, “Do whatever you want.” An American president actually said that.”

At the president’s table were Vice President Kamala Harris, his top Cabinet officials and Jeff Bezos, the founder of Amazon. Mr. Biden also selected two others to his table: the prime minister of Estonia and the Ukrainian ambassador.

“We will not bow, they will not bow and I will not bow,” Mr. Biden said.

Mr Biden also previewed his campaign as he delivered one of Mr Trump’s most memorable suggestions during the Covid pandemic. He pledged that his administration would show “how we weathered the pandemic, turned around the economy, and restored American leadership in the world — all without encouraging the American people to inject bleach.”

“Or without destroying the economy, embarrassing us around the world or yearning for insurrection,” he continued. “Look, I wish these were jokes, but they’re not.”

In her column, Twinkle Khanna wrote, “Between forcing my little one to take her flu medicine, training the dog to pee somewhere other than my bed, and checking out a deck of cards that my company sends to advertisers, I stay attending the Ambani festivities in what seems like a paradigm time warp via Instagram. I see the three Khans performing together and the man of the house singing a powerful song (sic).

She further said, “He then performs a thrusting dance step which he repeats 33 times with so much force that it feels like he is about to dig another oil well through the stage and into the Jamanagar soil. I see Rihanna is reportedly making somewhere between Rs66 and 74 crore barefoot. However, her act is not half as grand as Nita Bhabhi’s performance of the Vishwambhari Stuti, dedicated to Ma Ambe, an avatar of Goddess Durga (sic).

Take a look at Akshay Kumar’s hilarious performance at Anant-Radhika’s pre-wedding gala:

The Bronx native attended the glittering Met Gala in New York City many times during her career. Here's a look back.

2006

It was a drastic change in 2006 when Jenny From The Block opted for a one-shoulder dress in a soft white color with a sheer mermaid finish and her hair down. She added long earrings and carried a clutch bag for a very polished look. The theme was Anglomania: Tradition and transgression in British fashion.

The Spencer sisters looked stunning in contrasting dresses as they attended the Air Ambulance ball on Wednesday evening.

Lady Amelia Spencer and Lady Eliza Spencer, the nieces of the late Princess Diana, looked elegant at the stunning black and white gala dinner at Raffles London at the OWO (Old War Office).

The socialite twins, both 31, opted for a sleek look as they both smoothed their blonde locks into ballerina-style balls.

Eliza went for a bright color palette as she donned a white figure-hugging dress with bow detailing across the chest, embellished with a mesh top and jewels around the bodice.

As an accessory, she added sparkling heels and matching earrings, while keeping her makeup natural.

Amelia made sure to complement her sister's look with a shimmering black number, complete with semi-sheer sleeves and a jeweled belt, which perfectly accentuated Eliza's look.

She opted for a radiant makeup palette, with a hint of blush highlighting her rosy cheeks.

During the event, Prince William thanked the nation for its “kind expressions of support” for his wife and father.

In a speech, the Prince of Wales said the heartfelt words of comfort his family received following Kate's hospitalization for serious abdominal surgery and King Charles' shock cancer diagnosis “mean a lot to us all.”

It was a particularly busy day for the prince – who is now the monarchy's most prominent public figure – as he presented more than 50 awards on behalf of the king.

The monarch is recovering at Sandringham after his first cancer treatment and Kate is home after abdominal surgery.

He left caring for his wife and three young children in Windsor to undertake a day of engagements, holding an investiture at Windsor Castle, followed by the charity fundraising event.

The Prince of Wales – who served as an air ambulance pilot in East Anglia – has been a patron of the organization since 2020.

William, keen to keep his father's news front and center in recent days, told his audience: 'I would like to take this opportunity to also say thank you for the kind expressions of support shown to Catherine and to my father, especially in recent days . It means a lot to all of us.

'It is fair to say that the past few weeks have had a rather “medical” focus. So I thought I'd join an air ambulance service to get away from it all!'

It comes after the Spencer twins stunned in colour-coordinated silver ensembles as they arrived on the Fashion Awards 2023 red carpet in December.

To showcase their stylish prowess, they opted for statement dresses from Gyunel Couture at London's Royal Albert Hall.

They looked effortlessly flawless in their glamorous attire at the prestigious fashion event.

Amelia made sure all eyes were on her as she donned a shimmering metallic silver floor-length dress with a corset neckline.

Meanwhile, Eliza wore a mini version of the dress with an extravagant floral embroidered hemline. She added a mesh cape to the ensemble, with a delicate, Peter Pan-style embellished collar.

Amelia added a pop of color to her outfit with a statement red necklace and a matching pair of earrings from Boodles.

For the occasion, she styled her glossy blonde locks into a sleek ponytail, while Eliza opted for a stylish ballerina-style bun.

The pair went for a glamorous makeup look, complete with silver smokey eyeshadow to match their sparkling attire.

Eliza paired her mini dress with an elegant pair of pointed pumps in a matching silver shade from Gina Shoes.

The Prince of Wales said he ‘really appreciates everyone’s kindness’ as he spoke out for the first time since the shock news that the King has been diagnosed with cancer.

It came as William arrived at a gala dinner was in support of London’s Air Ambulance Charity tonight – of which the Prince is a patron.

The day has been particularly busy day for the Prince – who is now the monarchy’s most prominent public figure – as he handed out more than 50 honours on behalf of the King. The monarch is recuperating at Sandringham following his first cancer treatment and Kate is at home following abdominal surgery. 

And to take William’s mind off the royal family’s woes there was some A-list Hollywood glitter, in the form of global superstar Tom Cruise.

The presence of the Top Gun star was particularly appropriate given that the gala is to support the London Air Ambulance, of which Cruise is, remarkably, an existing supporter. The Prince of Wales – who served as an air ambulance pilot in East Anglia – has been patron of the organisation since 2020.

Looking smart in a black velvet dinner jacket and bow tie, he arrived at Ruffles new London hotspot, Raffles London in Horseguards Avenue, at 7.20pm.

Meeting outside the venue, the Prince could be seen shaking hands with the Hollywood star – before they posed up for pictures together and were heard complimenting each others outfits. 

The Black and White gala raised more than £1million last year, and the charity hopes that the event will help them to replace two aging helicopters by September.

Tonight guests will have a live performance from Grammy-award winner Sister Sledge and get the chance to get their hands on exclusive high-quality prizes in an auction.

He was introduced to by reality star Mark-Francis Vandelli, a charity committee member, to some of the VIP guests including Sister Sledge.

He then turned and said: ‘This is Tom Cruise, needs no introduction.’

The two men, who have met before, greeted each other warmly and also stood side by side for photos smiling, joking at each other’s tuxedos.

William, who wore Top Gun themed slippers to the premier of Maverick two years ago, looked down at his feet and turned to Tom and said: ‘I haven’t got my Top Gun slippers on.’

Hollywood star Tom laughed as Wills headed into another room.

One member of Sister Sledge told the Prince that she was praying for his father. William smiled and thanked her.

Co-host for the evening, presenter Tania Bryer, made a point of telling the audience, after William had made his way to his seat, that all their ’best wishes’ were being sent to His Majesty.

The audience clapped and there were calls of ‘hear hear’ as William smiled and encouraged his table – including Cruise – to sit down.

It will be hosted by CNBC broadcaster Tania Bryer and Made in Chelsea and Celebs Go Dating star Mark-Francis Vandelli.

Speaking before the event, Jonathan Jenkins, CEO of London’s Air Ambulance Charity, said: ‘HRH Prince William truly understands our work and knows that every second counts in an emergency. 

‘We know that with his help as well as the continued support of the public, our crews can reach those who need them most – serving the people of London 24 hours a day, every day of the year. 

‘We’re thrilled he will be joining us at our 2024 gala event.’ 

The Prince of Wales, who was wearing an RAF uniform, chatted warmly with recipients including Patricia Spruce earlier today, who was made an MBE for her work recruiting foreign medics for the NHS.

Ms Spruce revealed afterwards that she had asked William about his wife. Taking to LinkedIn, she wrote: ‘Prince William said that Katherine had two Filipino nurses looking after her and they were amazing and kind.’ 

Ellen White, who was also made an MBE, said she gave her ‘best wishes’ for Kate and the King. Asked how William responded, she said: ‘He really appreciated it. So yeah, it was something that obviously I wanted to send my best wishes.’

Lipreader Jeremy Freeman, who analysed the exchange for MailOnline, revealed it ended with William saying William, ‘Well it was lovely to see you again’, before White responded, ‘Thank you, please wish your Dad well’.

Charles has postponed all public-facing duties, but is continuing with behind-the-scenes work on his red boxes of state papers.

And today Downing Street took the unusual step of confirming details about Prime Minister Rishi Sunak’s weekly audience with the King, following an agreement with Buckingham Palace, and said it would be held later over the phone.

William was last seen outside The London Clinic on January 18 after visiting his wife, who returned to Adelaide Cottage in Windsor on Monday and is set to be out of the public eye until at least Easter. 

Prince Harry arrived in London yesterday and had a ‘brief meeting’ with Charles at Clarence House, but sources close to William have made it clear he has ‘no plans’ to see his estranged brother. 

William will appear at a charity gala tonight, where he is expected to speak about his father’s charity diagnosis for the first time. He may also thank wellwishers and discuss what the Royal Family have been through in recent days. 

However, the heir to the throne will not talk about his brother Harry, with one royal expert calling their relationship ‘completely broken’. 

The King’s cancer treatment as an outpatient started earlier this week, and he returned, with the Queen, to his Sandringham home in Norfolk yesterday after seeing his son the Duke of Sussex, who had flown back to the UK from California.

William may step in to represent his father at any public events, but no engagements are scheduled at the moment and the royal palaces will make arrangements if the need arises. 

Meanwhile, Prince Harry flew 5,000 miles from California yesterday to see his father for 45 minutes following the King’s shock cancer diagnosis.

But while Harry’s transatlantic dash raised hopes he will continue to heal wounds with his family, there hasn’t been ‘any sign’ of a reunion between the two royal brothers.

BBC Royal Correspondent Daniela Relph said the chances of a reconciliation between William and Harry remains unlikely given their ongoing feud.

‘It’s a sibling relationship that still looks incredibly broken. We don’t know if either side has reached out in any way, if there has been any attempt to find a truce. As things stand there doesn’t seem to be any sign of that,’ she told Radio 4.

‘You have to read that as a sign of the state of their relationship, nothing in the diary we’re told for them to meet up while Harry’s in the UK.

‘It also means Harry won’t be visiting his sister-in-law, the Princess of Wales, who has been unwell, someone he was once very close to.’

The Duke of Sussex was one of the first family members seen to visit Charles after his shock diagnosis was made public.

Another visit by Harry to his father has not been ruled out, according to The Telegraph, but it is understood the Duke will not be making a visit to his older brother while staying in London.

Royal biographer Robert Hardman told Radio 4 that it is common for feuding families to ‘come together’ during tough times.

Mr Hardman said: ‘In times of crisis families do come together, and I think everyone will be happy to see that.

‘I think there is a sort of sense of business as usual going on and that’s very much a message that the palace is trying to put out, but if along the way we can see some bridges being built, then that’s got to be a good thing.’

While William returned to public duties today – after having decided to ‘clear his diary’ in order to support the Princess of Wales during and after her operation last month – he is not expected to pick up full-time royal duties quite yet.

This evening, he will attend the London Air Ambulance annual fundraising gala in central London. He has been the charity’s patron since 2020.

The dinner is being held in support of the charity’s largest ever fundraiser, hoping to produce £15million to replace its helicopter fleet.

After today, William has no further duties scheduled this week and will be with Kate and the children again next week during their half-term holiday.

Princess Anne will also be back in action today after conducting four engagements yesterday, with three today scheduled across Berkshire, London and Oxfordshire.

A source said: ‘The Prince has always made clear that his priority is to support his wife and family for the time being – and he did not put a timescale on that.

‘He will make a return to duties on Wednesday but you should not expect to see him again for a bit after that.’

It is understood that his team at Kensington Palace are speaking to their opposite numbers at Buckingham Palace about which public engagements William could potentially attend in his father’s place.

They are likely to be along the lines of further investitures and, perhaps, leading the family at events such as the annual Commonwealth Day service at Westminster Abbey early next month.

But with His Majesty insisting on keeping his hand firmly on the tiller of State business during his treatment, it is highly unlikely that the future king will be required to take over any constitutional matters.

It is understood that William, 41, has his father’s ‘100 per cent’ backing in returning at his own pace.

A source said: ‘The King adores Catherine and thinks she is doing a wonderful job. He understands that family comes first.’

The King has been spending an increasing amount of time at Windsor Castle since his accession, often staying over on Sunday evenings, affording him more time with his son and young grandchildren to whom he is growing ever closer. 

William, who now lives in Adelaide Cottage on the Windsor Estate, a short walk from the castle, also often uses rooms in the historic royal residence for meetings.

The Princess of Wales was unexpectedly admitted to hospital last month for what has been described only as ‘abdominal surgery’.

She spent two weeks in The London Clinic, where the King also underwent his prostate operation, and she is unlikely to start undertaking royal duties again until after Easter.

Aides said at the time that her husband had cancelled all his forthcoming engagements to be by her side and support their children Prince George, ten, Princess Charlotte, eight and five-year-old Prince Louis.

While they did not put a timeline on it, sources suggested the Prince would remain at Windsor with them for ‘several weeks’.

William has always made clear that, at this stage in his life, his duty to his family comes ahead of his public role.

However, it is unheard of to have three senior members of the Royal Family out of action at one time, particularly now the King is likely to be away for longer than planned, meaning working royals will be thin on the ground.

And this means there will, inevitably, be more pressure on the future king to step up.

Harry met with his father for the first time in 18 months yesterday – for just 45 minutes – following the King’s shock cancer diagnosis.

Hours after Charles called him personally to break the news, the Duke of Sussex had boarded a plane to London from the US to see him.

But their meeting, at the monarch’s Clarence House residence, lasted less than an hour.

The King, looking remarkably fresh-faced and cheerful despite starting treatment for his unspecified cancer in hospital on Monday, left shortly afterwards by helicopter for Sandringham, his Norfolk estate, with his loyal wife, Queen Camilla.

The Mail understands he is ‘doing well’ and is on ‘very good form’.

William is now completely estranged from Harry following several years of vicious attacks against the monarchy, as well as himself and his wife personally.

Sources made clear that William’s focus is, as it has been for the last few weeks, on the Princess of Wales, who is recovering from abdominal surgery, and their three children in Windsor.

A source previously told the Mail that the future king respects his father’s decision to ‘keep the door ajar’ for Harry, but that is ‘not an option for him personally for the time being.’

The day of family drama comes after Buckingham Palace announced on Monday night that the 75-year-old monarch had begun immediate treatment after doctors discovered an ‘issue of concern’ while he was undergoing surgery last month for an enlarged prostate, which is itself benign.

Subsequent diagnostic tests identified a form of cancer, which has not been specified by royal aides, but has been confirmed not to be prostate cancer, one of the biggest killers of men in the UK.

As a result the King has postponed all his public commitments, although he continues to very much work behind the scenes on his state and constitutional duties.

The Mail revealed yesterday that his condition had been caught at an ‘early stage’ and his prognosis is positive.

His Majesty is said to be ‘looking forward to returning to full public duty as soon as possible’.

He rang all close family members personally to break the news to them, including Harry, who was last in the UK for his father’s coronation last May.

However it is not believed that father and son actually met on that occasion, meaning the last time they would have seen each other in person was at Queen Elizabeth’s funeral in September 2022.

They have, however, spoken on the phone, with sources close to Harry seemingly leaking details of a a telephone call he had with his father on his 75th birthday last November and how his children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, had recorded a video of them singing happy birthday to the grandfather they have barely met.

The King is known to have been deeply hurt by his youngest son’s many attacks on the family since he and wife Meghan acrimoniously quit as working royals and moved to North America, including their series of tell-all television interviews and documentary series, as well as Harry’s memoir, Spare.

Sources say while the King is exhausted by the drama and wants to focus on his role as monarch, he has insisted on never closing the door on his youngest son.

It is not clear whether he invited Harry to visit him or whether it was the prince’s decision to come, but on Monday night he was seen boarding a a flight in Los Angeles.

He arrived at Heathrow airport’s Windsor VIP suite, which is used by the royal family, where he was greeted by two royal Range Rovers, at least three plain clothed Metropolitan Police royalty protection officers and two police escort cars.

Harry is currently taking legal action against the Home Office for withdrawing his taxpayer funded British police protection when he left the UK, arguing that he and has family do not feel safe in this country without it.

Dressed in a black jacket over what appeared to be a casual black t-shirt, Harry sped through the main gates to Clarence House, having swept past the monarch’s official London residence, Buckingham Palace, at 2.45pm, head was turned firmly to one side.

The King and Queen – whom Harry has recently accused of being ‘dangerous’ and ‘a villain’, much to his father’s anger – were already inside, having taken up residence there on Monday in order for the King to attend hospital.

Royal aides have refused to discuss the meeting at all, although it is understood that fact that it even happened is being seen as a cause for ‘optimism’.

Some believe that the fact that Harry flew to London so quickly and that his father saw him immediately could even suggest the start of a ‘thaw’.

But there was no hiding the fact that it lasted just three quarters of an hour, with the same cars sweeping out with Harry apparently inside, although hidden from view, at 3.32pm.

It is unclear whether he plans to stay in the country or return immediately to California where his wife, Meghan, remained. His spokesman did not respond to requests for comment. He has previously stayed at an undisclosed hotel and is unlikely to be offered royal accommodation.

Clearly Charles and Camilla had their bags already packed to leave, as just six minutes later, at 3.38pm, they drove out of the gates too.

The King, looking smart in a suit and patterned tie, looked remarkably healthy and waved and smiled warmly to well-wishers, as did Queen Camilla.

A few minutes later the monarch’s distinctive burgundy helicopter could be seen taking off from the gardens of Buckingham Palace, arriving at Sandringham at 4.20pm.

The Mail understands that it was always the King’s plan to return to his Norfolk estate to recuperate and work quietly, as soon as his first treatment was over.

Yesterday – February 6 – marks the day that his grandfather, King George VI, died at Sandringham House of lung cancer in 1952 and his late mother, Queen Elizabeth, acceded the throne.

Sources have said that the King appears to be in great spirits, and ‘if you didn’t know, you wouldn’t suspect there was anything wrong with him’.

He is said to be ‘up and about’, keeping up with the red boxes of official paperwork required of him as head of state.

It is understood His Majesty plans to return to London when treatment is required or if he has important official business, including meetings with the Prime Minister.

However his return to Sandringham yesterday suggests that at least their first normal Wednesday conversation will take place by phone.

His treatment will be interspersed with periods of rest recuperation at one of his country residences including Sandringham, Highgrove in Gloucestershire and Windsor.

It is likely that he will also revert to a Covid-style way of working with more telephone meetings and video calls in order to minimise public contact and protect his health during the early stages of medical intervention.

The Prime Minister yesterday said he was ‘shocked and sad’ at the King’s cancer diagnosis, but insisted ministers would ‘crack on’ with the business of government.

Rishi Sunak, who was informed of the news before it was made public on Monday evening, said he remained ‘in regular contact’ with the monarch ‘and will continue to communicate with him as normal’.

Pigeon Cameron found a “better boyfriend” in Damiano Davidwho debuted their romance on the red carpet.

Cameron, 28, and the Måneskin singer, 25, confirmed their rumored relationship on Clive Davis' Pre-Grammy Gala red carpet on Saturday, February 3. The actress wowed in a strapless floor-length red dress as she held David's arm during the photo session. David, who looked dapper in a gray suit and mismatched earrings, then gave Cameron a kiss on the carpet.

Cameron and David were first linked in September 2023 after attending his Måneskin concerts in New York City and Brazil. Two months later they were spotted in Australia.

Neither Cameron nor David addressed the relationship speculation at the time, which marks the Eurovision winner's first romance after a recent split. David, for his part, split away Giorgia Soleri in 2023, while Cameron's last public relationship was with Cameron Offspring 2 Co-star Thomas Dohertywith whom she dated for four years until they split in 2020.

Celebrities know how important it is to make their relationships public, especially if they do it in a high-profile way. For example, Justin Hartley and Sofia Pernas made a splash at the 2021 MTV Movie & TV Awards when they debuted their matching rings, a year after they were first linked in May 2020. Us Weekly confirmed […]

“The breakup hurt me,” Cameron said Entertainment tonight in November 2023. “It was very difficult, and I needed something that would take me from where I was, in the grieving process, to the other side.”

The split seemingly inspired several songs on her debut album, Alchemical: Part 1.

'Sand' is about a boy I loved very much, who I really thought I would spend my life with, and the crazy experience of having that seemingly perfect relationship, how quickly it turned ugly, the feeling of shock and disintegration as a human being,” she said Teen fashion later that month without mentioning her musical muse. “This reality that was yours, this future that was yours, this human being that you were to them, the feeling of it being sudden, completely atomized, and the realization that your initial instincts in the first five minutes of meeting someone were absolutely prophetic and correct, even after years.”

Cameron, who publicly came out as queer in 2020, said this previously We weekly that she feels “more myself” when she makes music.

“Before I really became a musician in real life – and I wasn't just writing songs in my studio – I was very much like, 'I don't know why more people don't do music, film and TV.' and now I'm like, 'I understand why no one is doing this!'” the actress shared exclusively Us in April 2023. “It's so hard because it's just both full-time jobs, and they're really not a good fit. So it has definitely become more complicated. But I just feel more like myself than ever and am very grateful.”

Cameron was previously engaged to her Liv and Maddie Co-star Ryan McCartan. After three years of dating, McCartan, 30, proposed in April 2016. They separated in October.
