We also highlight a recent cornucopia of Euroweird excellence from the Depardieu family’s blissful film festival outing to the fabulous brainrot opera debut of Beata Mona-Lisa, Greta Thunberg’s perplexingly buxom sister— plus we react to fashion announcements including Marine Serre’s bankruptcy and the upcoming John Galliano–themed Met Gala.Links: Margaret Qualley and Callum Turner on the set of the Possession remake in New JerseyJulie Depardieu and Philippe Katerine pose with their 2 sons Billy and Alfred at the Monte Carlo Television Festival (Alexi’s viral QRT)Billy Blanchard at Jean-Paul Gaultier F/W 2026 Couture via Lyas“EXCLUSIVE: Marine Serre Seeks Investor Amid Financial Restructuring” in WWDThe Met Announces the Spring 2027 Costume Institute Exhibition, John Galliano: Horizons“John Galliano Returns to Fashion Via a Creative Partnership with Zara” in Vogue“An Uncomplicated Man” (review of Christopher Nolan’s The Odyssey) by Emily Wilson in The London Review of BooksMillie Bobby Brown responds to bad wig accusations on BBC Radio 1@chthonicthorn on TikTok (Hellenistic practicioner?) “Greta Thunberg’s Sister Beata Mona-Lisa Does the Splits” by Billy Parker in InterviewBeata Mona-Lisa on InstagramPianist Yuja WangNymphet Alumni Ep. 114: Grisch“The Folk Singer Linda Perhacs Is Found and Is Safe, Authorities Confirm” in The New York TimesTyla - “THAT GIRL” (Official Music Video)Nymphet Alumni Ep. 147: Cherry Emoji Dark FeminineTyla in custom Phoebe Pendergast polka dot hair clip at Disney with Kai Cenat“Valley of the Marc Jacobs Dolls” by Carwyn McIntyre in ToBe“The Surreal, Sublime Worlds of Szilveszter Makó” by Lauren Jackson in The New York TimesAdam Green’s Aladdin - Full Movie (Official) on YouTubeKATSEYE (캣츠아이) - “Animal” (Official Music Video)KATSEYE EP 3 ‘WILD’ (Wild heart ver.) teaser images on InstagramADÉLA - “Ain’t In LA” (Official Music Video)Gabbriette in custom Matières Fécales bridalAndrea Mauri @babedrea33 on Instagram“Married elite NYC lawyer, 45, is caught red-handed with underling, 29, in passionate Central Park rendezvous” in The Daily Mail“How Leopold Aschenbrenner, the ‘golden child’ of the AI trade, was laid low” in The Financial Times This is a public episode.
