A teacher at a Catholic school in Italy, Elena Maraga, 29, has been suspended after parents discovered she was an OnlyFans model. The revelation came when a parent recognized her on the adult platform and shared the information in a WhatsApp group and on Facebook. Maraga defended her actions, stating that her monthly salary of around 1,200 euros was unsustainable, prompting her to explore alternative careers. She expressed pride in her physical achievements and the financial success she found on the platform, claiming to earn a month's salary in just one day. In response to the incident, Italy's education ministry is developing a new code of ethics aimed at preventing teachers from engaging in activities that could tarnish their schools' reputations. The situation has sparked a heated debate on social media, with many defending Maraga's right to her private life, while others emphasize the ethical responsibilities of educators. 
Published: Mar 22 2025, 7 ameznews.inScientists were amused when they captured footage of a Maori octopus hitchhiking on a shortfin mako shark, one of the fastest shark species, in the Hauraki Gulf off New Zealand's North Island. The video, recorded in December 2023 and released recently, shows the orange-hued octopus clinging to the shark's back, prompting marine ecologist Rochelle Constantin to initially question whether it was entangled in fishing gear. After deploying a drone for a closer look, researchers observed the unusual interaction, noting that octopuses typically reside on the seabed, where mako sharks rarely venture. Social media users reacted with astonishment, calling the octopus "a genius" for its clever mode of transport. While it remains uncertain what happened after the 10-minute observation, the encounter highlights the ocean's wonders and the importance of conservation efforts to preserve such extraordinary moments.
Published: Mar 22 2025, 12 pmeznews.inElon Musk's daughter, Vivian Jenna Wilson, has dismissed claims suggesting her transition influenced her father's political shift to the right. In a recent Teen Vogue interview, Wilson stated, "That's just not the case," asserting that Musk's evolving political views are not a result of her identity as a transgender woman. She criticized the narrative surrounding their relationship, emphasizing that Musk's move further right is unrelated to her. Wilson, who has not spoken to Musk since 2020, expressed relief at their estrangement and highlighted the disparity between online personas and real-life beliefs. Musk's political stance has notably changed over the past few years, particularly after his increased activity on social media, where he began sharing right-wing memes and conspiracy theories. This shift coincided with Wilson's coming out, during which Musk reportedly expressed feelings of loss regarding his son and attributed his political transformation to what he termed the "woke mind virus."

Many expressed their discontent, particularly from Indian nationals, questioning the implications of such associations.

In an interview with Teen Vogue, the 20-year-old expressed her disbelief at the moment, stating, "Honey, we're going to call a fig a fig, and we're going to call a Nazi salute what it was." Wilson condemned the crowd's complicity and emphasized that they too should be denounced.

Published: Mar 22 2025, 1 pmeznews.inRussian President Vladimir Putin's regard for former US President Donald Trump has been underscored by envoy Steve Witkoff, who revealed that Putin prayed for Trump’s recovery following an assassination attempt at a campaign rally last summer.

Additionally, Putin gifted Trump a "beautiful portrait" created by a prominent Russian artist, reflecting their amicable ties. Despite ongoing scrutiny of their relationship amid the Ukraine conflict, Trump has praised Putin, calling him a "genius" and a "strong leader."

Published: Mar 22 2025, 1 pmeznews.inA US bride, Amie Barron, 22, has faced significant backlash on social media after sharing a video of her budget wedding, where she wore jeans and a plaid shirt instead of a traditional gown. The ceremony, held in January at a public library in West Virginia, was attended by around 20 guests and cost the couple approximately $1,000. Ms. Barron and her husband, Hunter, 24, saved money by handling their own hair, makeup, music, and food, while spending $480 on a photographer and $300 on cowboy boots. Despite describing the day as a "fairytale" and sharing joyful posts, many online users criticized the event, with some calling it "ugly" and "depressing." The negativity has reportedly affected Ms. Barron emotionally, leading her to cut ties with unsupportive friends and family, yet she remains committed to sharing her wedding journey and not letting the criticism impact their marriage.
Published: Mar 22 2025, 11 ameznews.inWhile modern monarchs lack absolute power, many, like Grand Duke Henri of Luxembourg, possess substantial wealth. With an estimated net worth of $4 billion, Duke Henri's fortune surpasses that of the British Royal Family, whose King Charles and Queen Camilla are valued at $780 million. The Luxembourg royal wealth primarily stems from personal assets rather than the modest $11 million Sovereign Grant they receive annually, which pales in comparison to the British royals' nearly $111 million over the past three years. Duke Henri's impressive portfolio includes valuable real estate, unique jewels, and extensive landholdings, with his primary residence at Berg Castle. His decision in 2006 to auction some of his late mother’s diamonds sparked public outrage, leading him to withdraw the items. Despite their lesser popularity, Luxembourg’s royal family continues to thrive financially, showcasing the hidden wealth of European monarchies.
Published: Mar 22 2025, 11 ameznews.inIn a controversial move, US President Donald Trump has revoked the security clearances of former President Joe Biden, his family, and several senior officials from the previous administration, including Vice President Kamala Harris, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, and Secretary of State Antony Blinken. In a memorandum, Trump directed all executive department heads to revoke access to classified materials and secure government facilities for those named. Traditionally, former presidents and national security officials retain clearances as a courtesy, which can aid in private sector employment. Trump's decision comes amid his ongoing grievances about the 2020 election results, which he falsely claims were manipulated. Notably, the list also includes former Republican lawmaker Liz Cheney and Fiona Hill, a former intelligence analyst. Trump's own security clearance was scrutinized after he stored classified documents at his Mar-a-Lago resort, an investigation that concluded when he returned to office.

Critics condemned the filter, arguing it perpetuated harmful stereotypes and fatphobia, with one user highlighting the negative impact on young women. In response to the backlash, TikTok announced it would review videos using the filter, make them ineligible for recommendations, and block them from teen accounts. The platform now displays a disclaimer when users search for the filter, emphasizing the importance of body positivity and providing resources for those struggling with body image issues. TikTok encouraged users to seek support and take care of one another amid the controversy.

He praised Elon Musk for facilitating their return, emphasizing the risks of prolonged space exposure.

Each astronaut will receive an additional $1,430 for incidentals, alongside their standard salaries, which range from approximately $94,998 to $123,152.
