Speaker 1 (00:01):
Welcome back to Sgrace rapper Sean Diddy Combs release date
from federal prison has been seen.

Speaker 2 (00:06):
Yeah from more. We're joined by entertainment editor Peter Ford.
Good morning, Pete. How much longer will he remain behind bars?

Speaker 3 (00:11):
Yeah, here's your diary date May eight, two twenty eight,
so twenty eight year twenty eight, around about two and
a half years. Of course, was October three that he
was sentenced. But if you cast your mind back to
the original days of this story, the worst case scenario
for him was he was never going to get out.

Speaker 4 (00:30):
Of prison again.

Speaker 3 (00:31):
So whilst two and a half years I'm sure for
him sounds like an eternity ahead, it's still a lot
better than it could have been. Now there's still a
chance of a presidential pardon. That story keeps resurfacing that
Trump is considering offering him that Also, there is the
appeal if that goes through. Depending on the timeline of

(00:51):
how quickly that happens, potentially he could be out earlier.
But at this point in time, it's still two and
a half years away for Diddy.

Speaker 1 (01:00):
Okay, Pete, let's move on, and by now most people
would have seen the vision of King Charles being a
heckled by a protest we just ran a little.

Speaker 2 (01:06):
Bit while ago.

Speaker 1 (01:06):
How's the public reacting to this encounter.

Speaker 3 (01:09):
Well, because you go online and you'll get mixed reactions,
you get mixed extreme reactions. Of course, Look, let's be
very clear, it was one person in a sizeable crowd.

Speaker 4 (01:20):
But it's still a problem.

Speaker 3 (01:21):
And it does, I think, indicate something's got to be dune.
They've got to rain this in because if this does
become the new norm, it's going to be a real problem.
And it's so unfair to the royals who are out there,
you know, doing this sort of hard slog every day
and they're being dragged down by the no hopers. Basically,

(01:41):
you know, yesterday what the King was doing, as indeed
he was doing last week, was the pope.

Speaker 4 (01:46):
It's historic.

Speaker 3 (01:48):
It wasn't this actual event, but at the other event
he went to where he was really visiting this memorial
to lesbian, gay and transgender service people who really were
treated appallingly by the armed services in the UK and
he wanted to redress that bad history. And now it
all gets overshadowed. So there's one group called Republic. They've

(02:10):
gone online and they have According to their ex account,
they have eighty two thousand followers. Clearly their agenda is
to be anti monarchist, and they're saying quite he clearly
here we support the heckling.

Speaker 4 (02:24):
Of the well they don't bring themselves to call in
King Charles. But so this is the problem, and I
think if nothing.

Speaker 3 (02:30):
Else, this solo heckler is probably going to make them
really sit up and say we've got to get this
under control fast.

Speaker 2 (02:39):
A fair Larry and I were actually discussing saying it's
a wonder there's not more of it.

Speaker 4 (02:44):
Yeah, and given us.

Speaker 2 (02:45):
Seriousness of the allegations against Prince Andrew, that one lone
heckler is making worldwide headlines. When you think about it,
it's actually probably more interesting that nobody has really heckled
before the point.

Speaker 3 (03:00):
I agree, Yeah, yeah, you've got to go to the
effort of being there at the time, But you think
some people might be motivated to do it, And now
worries me that this might open the floodgates. But you know,
moving in to Frogmore Cottage is not going to make
the problem go away.

Speaker 2 (03:14):
But they are acting. They're moving, albeit slowly. Yeah, sort
of in the right direction.

Speaker 1 (03:20):
All right, let's move on a Hugh Jackman has made
his red carpet debut with former coaster and now partner
Sutton Foster.

Speaker 3 (03:27):
Yeah, so here we are. This is their red carpet debuts.
We've had some pat pics, we've had fans who've stopped them,
and they've graciously agreed to be photographed, but this is
the first time where they've actually gone out officially as
a couple on a red carpet. It was the opening
of his movie song Sung Blue. Got to tell you,
I've already seen two reviews for it, and I'm sure

(03:48):
hughes great in it, but they're saying Kate Hudson is unbelievable.
And yes, Oscar Buzz haven't got the belt, but Oscar
Buzz already for Kate. So look, it's been two years
over to year now since Hugh and deb Lee split
and they've all both got to.

Speaker 4 (04:04):
Get on with their lives.

Speaker 3 (04:05):
And he think has been very conscious to go with
this slowly. As I've told you before, he studied to
be a journalist. He's very conscious of how people report
on him, what his image is, and I didn't I
don't think he wanted this to be too much too soon,
so as to say it's been a while. Now they're
getting on with their lives, and you know, we certainly

(04:26):
hope Deably is too.

Speaker 4 (04:27):
She's a lovely lady.

Speaker 2 (04:28):
Speaking of getting on with things, Nicole Kidman, Wow didn't she? Wow?
This is a very Vogue world show.

Speaker 4 (04:37):
Yeah, isn't this becoming? Well, it's new to me.

Speaker 3 (04:40):
I think they did do it last year, but this
latest one, it's clearly getting bigger. They're putting more and
more money into it. Vogue obviously behind it, and a
Winter oversees.

Speaker 4 (04:48):
The whole thing.

Speaker 3 (04:49):
This one was how at the Paramount Studios they recreated
that whole backlot feel of the old Hollywood and as
you can see there Baz and Nicole and for yeah,
Baz Luhrman and the colon and look, I'm sure a
lot of our real movie buffs would recognize that dress.
That is the Rita Hayworth dress from Gilda, which opened

(05:10):
in nineteen forty six. And Rita Hayworth, for those who
don't know, was one of the drop dead bombshell stars
of Hollywood. Sad ending for her and that's the look
that that very effectively the Coole has created. I remember
at that opening in nineteen forty six.

Speaker 4 (05:26):
I was there on the red carpet.

Speaker 3 (05:27):
Basically everyone's just had their jaws dropped when Rita arrived
and the Cole.

Speaker 4 (05:32):
Achieved that same thing with Baz at that event.

Speaker 2 (05:35):
We've got to be a grab here.

Speaker 4 (05:36):
I think Pete yes, have a long.

Speaker 2 (05:40):
Internal pots internal thought and hold hire jacks and the hair.

Speaker 4 (05:49):
She kicks them back. She sees her future, hold.

Speaker 1 (05:52):
The fut keep it pocust pocust a God, we have that.

Speaker 3 (05:58):
We've got, thank you, We've got it.

Speaker 4 (06:01):
It's very bads, isn't it? Very glam, very over the top.

Speaker 3 (06:05):
And that Vogue event has actually started in nineteen twenty two,
but clearly each year now it's getting bigger and bigger
in the same way. I guess that Anna Winter oversees
the met Gala now on the West coast.

Speaker 4 (06:17):
This is her little baby over there.

Speaker 2 (06:19):
I think we might she the other picture a bit late,
but Kendall Jenner actually wore Nicole Kidman's Mulin Rouge.

Speaker 4 (06:26):
Out actual one. Yeah, which was pretty special.

Speaker 3 (06:30):
Yeah, thanks Pete, thank you, thank you, Pete
