Leonor: “My influencers are not celebrities; they are natural smart people”

In a world that seems dominated by so-called influencers and artificial intelligence, Leonor has claimed the value of the “natural intelligents.” The princess, in the speech at the Princesa de Girona awards ceremony held at the Liceu, confessed that her favorite influencers, the people who inspire and influence her “are not characters considered successful or famous or glamorous, nor do they have the official label of aspirational nor measure their worth by certain achievements they post on their networks,” but rather those who “fall in love with problems with the intention of solving them; who tell something important with talent and accompany their craziness with rigor, discipline, and critical thinking.”

Felipe González: “There should be elections this year”

Felipe González: “There should be elections this year”

The former Prime Minister Felipe González has said it, for the first time, loud and clear. In his opinion, there should be general elections this year, given the weakness of the current Government of Pedro Sánchez. Although González does not base this opinion exclusively on the latest events surrounding his successor José Luis Rodríguez Zapatero, he maintains that he cannot imagine him in the role depicted by the UDEF about him, at the head of a criminal organization involved in influence peddling, but he assures that the judge handling the case is being “extremely protective of rights.” He said this in the interview he held at the forum of the Valencian Business Association, AVE, chaired by Vicente Boluda.

Curra and Benito become mother and son 73 years later: “It has been a deep emotional repair for both”

Young girls who became pregnant by a man who disappeared and were forced to disguise their situation for fear of what people would say. It happened to Curra with Benito 73 years ago, when she became pregnant. Curra’s parents hid her throughout the pregnancy and concealed the real kinship, making Benito, in everyone’s eyes, the son of her grandparents and Curra’s brother. Now, 73 years later, they have been able to register in the Civil Registry of Tarifa (Cádiz) as what they really are: mother and son.

Imaz, “very concerned” about diesel and kerosene supply problems in the coming months in Europe

When I speak of the worst-case scenario, I refer to a worsening of the situation in Hormuz. I am not saying that will happen. It would be very positive to see a solution in the short term.” This is the warning issued this Thursday by Josu Jon Imaz during the conference with analysts to present the first-half results, in which the company’s profit soared due to rising oil prices and the increased volume of its reserves.

The ‘Odyssey’ of Zendaya, the goddess of Olympus and fashion

Whether on a red carpet, on a television set, or in front of a photocall, every appearance of Zendaya Coleman has the ability to dazzle to the point of almost causing Stendhal syndrome in those who behold her. She made it clear during the promotional tour of the movie Rivales (Challengers) in the spring of 2024, reaffirmed it with Dune: Part Two, alongside Timothée Chalamet, and now has taken it to the highest expression with the premiere of The Odyssey, chaining premieres that could well be mistaken for authentic haute couture fashion shows.
