Australia’s 2022 Eurovision entrant has been revealed following a public vote at the Australia Decides event on the Gold Coast over the weekend.

And The 2022 NAACP Image Awards have taken place. The awards are presented by The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People to honour outstanding performances across the arts and social justice. Big winners from the event included Jennifer Hudson and Will Smith along with a special appearance by Prince Harry and Meghan Markle.

Plus, actress Amanda Bynes has filed a petition to end her nearly nine-year-long conservatorship. For decades, the child star turned leading lady was one of Hollywood’s most bankable stars before a string of legal and personal issues forced her to retreat from the spotlight. Now the question is, why are fans not rallying around her in the same way they did with Britney Spears? It could be because the two stories could not be more different.
