“It’s a very sad day for our family. Dali, our beloved Frenchie, passed away last night,” Jackman, 53, wrote.

“He would’ve been 12 next month… which I’m told is a long life for this breed.
“I always, always called him the ROCKSTAR. Because he was!
“He marched to the beat of his own drum, was beloved by the whole world, and boy did he have a good life,” the Greatest Showman actor continued.
“We will miss him but know he’s howling in heaven, ruling the roost and enjoying the all-you-can-eat buffet.
“RIP Dalí Rockstar Jackman. We love you!” the tribute ended.

He has previously called Dali “the Chairman of my welcome home committee”.
The Jackman family adopted Dali in 2010, before adopting another dog, a poodle-terrier named Allegra.
Dali and Allegra were often seen on Instagram going fo.r walks on the beach or around New York
‘So proud of Deb’
Dali and Allegra were there when Jackman’s wife Deborra-Lee Furness, 66, was named an Officer of the Order of Australia.
The X-Men actor shared a tribute for his wife, which included a photo of Furness smiling as she held their two dogs.
“So proud of Deb! Today she was named an Officer (AO) of the Order of Australia, ”his post from her began.

“For almost 30 years, I’ve firsthand witnessed her endless generosity and commitment to service.
“Her intolerance for injustice, and her heart which is as large as our great country,” the proud husband continued.
“Today everyone else gets to understand and appreciate her incredible work. As for her service to the arts, the breadth and depth of her work is extraordinary.

“Also she is the greatest actress I have worked with… And, I’m not just saying that!”
Furness has spent years campaigning to change adoption laws, an issue that is close to her heart, and that has earned her a place on the Australia Day Honors List.
Jackman and Furness married in April 1996 after meeting on the set of the Australian TV drama Corelli in 1995.
They welcomed two children by adoption, Oscar, 21, and Ava, 16.

When speaking on The Morning Show In 2020, Furness raised to viewers’ attention that there were 45,000 children living in the out-of-home care system (as of November 2020).
“When you think about 45,000 kids, that would fill a football stadium,” Furness said.
“They’ve measured that physically, emotionally, and mentally, these kids do not develop and they do not thrive – that’s why we are so insistent on saying that they need permanency in their lives because every moment counts for these kids,” the actress told hosts Kylie Gillies and Larry Emdur.

Not even an early Formula 1 exit can wipe Daniel Ricciardo’s trademark grin off his face while on summer holiday.
WA’s F1 ace has been at the center of a motorsport storm this week with reports his McLaren contract would be sensationally terminated early in favor of young Victorian-born racing star Oscar Piastri.
But it has not affected the overtake magician’s summer plans, posting a happy, sun-filled snap to Instagram from the pool.
The star looks relaxed, lounging in the water surrounded by palm trees.
The caption simply reads: “Hello ☀”
But Ricciardo’s return to the track on August 26 in Belgium will be anything but calm, with the Aussie in the middle of his second straight season of disappointment at McLaren, struggling with a car that can’t compete with the top teams.
The man from Duncraig sits 12th in the Driver’s Standings with a paltry 19 points from 13 race starts, while British teammate Lando Norris sits 7th with 76 points.
Ricciardo put out a heartfelt message on Twitter earlier in the season affirming his commitment to seeing out his contract at McLaren, but the star may not be given a chance.
An early announcement during the silly season of driver swaps from team Alpine said Piastri, who won the F3 and F2 titles back-to-back before getting a gig as a test driver for Alpine, would drive for them next season, replacing F1 rockstar Fernando Alonso, who is moving to Aston Martin to fill retiring Sebastian Vettel’s seat, but the 21-year-old denied the claim.

Reports say there are clauses in Ricciardo’s contract that could allow him to leave the team if it was underperforming to his standards – not the other way round.
If he was to leave, he could also reunite with Alpine, the former Renault team he left for McLaren at the end of 2020.
China’s aggression after US House Speaker Nancy Pelosi visited Taiwan was “a bit over the top”, according to West Australian Premier Mark McGowan, who urged Beijing to “calm down”.
Ms Pelosi recently became the most senior US official to visit Taipei in decades and met with President Tsai Ing-wen, but it sparked outrage from China that does not recognize Taiwan as a nation.
Mr McGowan repeatedly clashed with the Morrison government – and especially former Defense Minister Peter Dutton – over their rhetoric towards China, which is WA’s biggest trading partner.
While he refused to say whether Ms Pelosi’s visit was appropriate, Mr McGowan said he was “obviously” concerned about tensions in the region.
“The reaction has been a bit over the top and I think there needs to be a calm down on the part of China,” Mr McGowan told reporters on Monday.
“I don’t know the circumstances as to why she went there… but I don’t think the reaction should have been as strong as it was.”
Since Ms Pelosi’s visit last week, the Chinese military has conducted sea and air exercises to show its ability to launch an attack on Taiwan.
Australia’s Foreign Minister Penny Wong has condemned China’s actions.
Meanwhile, Mr McGowan has backed WA Defense Industries Minister Paul Papalia in pushing for a greater military presence in the state.
It comes after retired Air Chief Marshal Sir Angus Houston and former defense minister Stephen Smith were chosen to review the Australian Defense Force’s capabilities.
Mr McGowan said having more army and air force teams in WA was appropriate “just in case in the long-term future something happened”.
“There’s huge amounts of army infrastructure and army units based in Victoria,” the Premier said.
“I would have thought that a more sensible deployment of those resources would be to WA.
“It’s not as though we’re going to be attacked by New Zealand.”
He then joked: “Well, maybe the All Blacks, but that’s about it … and they’re pretty fierce.”
Mr McGowan said he preferred most bases to be in Perth and the state’s south, but they should have “the capacity to deploy quickly” to the state’s north if required.
A repeat of those exact same circumstances would, of course, depend on the results of other races around the country. But the battle for control of the Senate is finely balanced between both parties right now — and the mere thought of the chamber hanging in the balance well after the November election is filling some Georgia organizers with dread.
“Nobody wants a runoff. Nobody wants a runoff,” Sukari Johnson, chair of the Clayton County Democratic Party, repeated with emphasis. “Because it’s very difficult for people to come back out, and at that point you’re spending time and money to get people to come back out. And nobody wants to do that after November.”
the polling average of the Warnock-Walker race from FiveThirtyEight shows Warnock with a 3-point edge — the same margin the Democratic senator enjoyed in the most recent survey from the home-state duo of the Atlanta Journal Constitution and the University of Georgia. Oliver garnered 3 percent support in that survey published at the end of July.
Warnock’s consistent polling advantage has come even as Republican Gov. Brian Kemp has enjoyed small leads over Democratic challenger Stacey Abrams in most surveys. It’s a slice of ticket-splitting that reveals some discomfort with Walker among voters who are prepared to cast GOP ballots in the state’s other big contest.
If the Senate campaign “is a small race, and it’s just down to two personalities, then I think Warnock might win,” former Republican House Speaker Newt Gingrich, a Georgia native who appeared with Walker at a campaign event last week in Alpharetta, told POLITICAL. “But if this is a big race, and it comes down to Warnock’s being part of 9 percent inflation and highest price gas in history, and you can go down the list, then I think Warnock loses.”
Those competing cross-currents are what is keeping the race so close — and with a close race comes the chance of a runoff. And at that point, Democrats concede, fatigue could become a factor as there have been near-nonstop political battles in Georgia over the last few years.
“Fatigue, people feeling overworked, and then people not recognizing that their vote is a powerful tool that they can use to change their circumstances and to change the world around them,” said Nsé Ufot, CEO of the Abrams-foundedNew Georgia Project, listing off challenges she and her voting rights organization are facing this year.
Jacquelyn Bettadapur, chair of the Democratic Party of Cobb County, agreed that the party faced an enthusiasm and energy deficit heading into the midterm’s homestretch. “This race is about who’s better at mobilizing the grassroots and getting people to turnout and vote. And I think the Republicans have a slight advantage with that … we’re seeing a lot of Republican enthusiasm similar to what the Democrats had in 2017 [after Donald Trump was first elected].”
Bettadapur said she believes people will still go and vote in November, but when it comes to getting volunteers to door-knock, text and phone bank and do other direct voter contact, there’s less enthusiasm than there was four years ago. Gwinnett County Democratic chair Brenda Lopez Romero, for example, is leading an effort to knock on doors and prepare media outreach in five different languages: English, Spanish, Vietnamese, Korean and Chinese.
Republicans have obstacles of their own to navigate. In Muscogee County, home to the city of Columbus, the party is working to flip the 2nd Congressional District and increase their vote share in a strongly Democratic area. Muscogee County GOP Chair Alton Russell is battling fears among base Republicans that their votes don’t matter. Stoked by former President Donald Trump’s insistent falsehoods about voter fraud and the results of the 2020 election, they’re the same fears that may have cost the GOP critical voter turnout in the last Senate runoffs.
“That’s a concern that I have — about people not voting because they have the opinion that everything is crooked, and Trump really won, and that their vote don’t count, and they’re just not going to vote at all. And I see that every day,” Russell said.
He added that there are several ways to engage GOP voters despite these concerns — including priming Republicans to get ready to vote out Joe Biden in 2024. But some Republicans get mad when they are encouraged to move on and look forward to the next election, Russell continued.
While Warnock is ahead in the polls, no one on his campaign believes the lead with last on his own.
“There are going to be polls in all directions over the course of this campaign. Here’s what we know: this race will be close, which is why we can’t take anything for granted and are working hard every day to reelect Reverend Warnock,” said Quentin Fulks, Warnock’s campaign manager, in a statement to POLITICO.
Walker’s campaign did not respond for comment. But Russell, the Muscogee County GOP chair, noted again how important voter outreach will be for the next three months.
“In Georgia, and in every county in Georgia, what’s gonna make the difference is turnout,” he said. “If we turn out, we will win. If we stay home, we won’t.”
A teal independent is pushing to change the way junk food advertising and marketing is regulated in a bid to stop Australia’s growing childhood obesity “epidemic”.
Sophie Scamps, who was a GP on Sydney’s northern beaches until recently becoming the MP for Mackellar, will put together a private member’s Bill to target fast-food advertisement and sponsorship.
The Bill is focused on the impact junk food has on children’s health, with Dr Scamps seeking to tackle the industry’s prevalent advertising during prime-time television, promotion on social media and its sponsorship of children’s sport.
“We do have an epidemic of overweight and obesity in this country and children are affected by that,” she told NCA NewsWire.
“We need to make the healthy food choices that parents are providing for their children the easy choice, we need to minimize that pest power.
“What I’m calling for really is a regulation of junk food advertising to children across TV and social media channels.”
Dr Scamps said childhood obesity not only creates issues for the individual involved, but the whole Australian health industry.
She said this makes taking preventive measures early on in people’s lives so important.
“Obesity and being overweight creates so many chronic diseases, everything from cancers, to diabetes, to heart disease, strokes, even depression,” she said.
“We also know with children that it’s much harder to gain a normal weight into the future if you have the problem when you’re a child.
“You can see into the future there’ll be a massive burden of disease created by this epidemic. So we either act now or we start investing in our public hospital system.”
But junk-food advertising remains a fixture of any prime-time television viewing experience, and some of the industry’s biggest restaurant chains sponsor the largest sports codes and teams from around the country.
Dr Scamps said junk food advertising through sport can have a big impact on a child’s health choices.
“We know that sport does influence children’s decisions, and we no longer advertise tobacco or alcohol to sport,” she said.
It’s another thing to look at, who is advertising or children’s sport?
The National Obesity Strategy, which was released in March earlier this year, noted that Australians “are regularly exposed to unhealthy food and drink marketing”, which included multimedia advertising and sports sponsorship.
It revealed an average five to eight-year-old child who watches around 80 minutes of television per day is exposed to 827 advertisements and four hours of “unhealthy food advertising” each year on free-to-air television.
A key potential strategy in the 10-year framework is reducing “unhealthy food and drink advertising, branding and sponsorship” to stop childhood obesity.
While the Bill is in its “early stages”, Dr Scamps believed it would be supported by parents and other MPs.
“It’s a common sense measure, it’s something that there’s precedent for. Mindsets change quite quickly once they’re introduced,” she said.
“I think parents will welcome because parents want the best for their children. They want those healthy choices to be the easy choices, they don’t want to be pestered at the checkout.
“As we’ve seen, there’s a lot of doctors who are new in the parliament as well.”
The Bill has the support of the Obesity Policy Coalition, with the group’s executive manager Jane Martin calling for urgent action to improve children’s diet habits.
“Our children deserve to go about their daily lives without being bombarded by ads for unhealthy food and sugary drinks which is the wallpaper that surrounds their lives,” Ms Martin said.
“Kids should be free to enjoy their favorite prime-time TV shows like Lego Masters without seeing ads for cookies or attend their weekend footy or netball games without fast-food sponsorships.
“This marketing influences children’s diets and impacts what kids want to eat, what they ask for and shapes their palates from an early age.”
The practices of the advertising industry are generally self-regulated through the Australian Association of National Advertisers’ Ad Standards code.
The code was updated last year to stop images of junk food being used in sponsorship advertising targeting children.

When 1990s film star Brendan Fraser went viral on TikTok last year in an emotional interview about his long-awaited comeback to the big screen, social media fans the world over suddenly realized what they’d been missing.
Speaking to cosplayer Lindley Key as part of an online convention called Galaxy Con Live in August, Fraser shared some news.
”I’m going to be working with [Martin] Scorsese, [Robert] De Niro and Leo [DiCaprio] … I think I might be sick … a little anxious,” he says, patting his heart, referring to the film he’d been cast in, Killers of the Flower Moon.
When Key told Fraser about the huge support he had on the internet, he teared up and tipped his cowboy hat, saying, ”Shucks, ma’am”.
Immediately, it was very clear ”he was the sweetest of humans”, she said at the time.
The reaction was swift, with fans describing him as a ”rare breed in Hollywood”, a sweetheart, humble, that every one of his films was ”rewatchable” and that he’d been sorely missed.
”Brendan does not realize he’s well loved … the majority of us grew up with him.We are still here to grow further with you man.You just need to believe in yourself Mr Fraser,” wrote one long-time supporter.
Throughout the 1990s, he gave us a delightful mix of feel-good comedy fantasy through to dramatic film roles.
He’s been on a journey to the center of the Earth, hilariously played Tarzan – aka George – in the jungle, fought off scary ancient mummies, and thrilled the kids sitting next to Donald Duck and Bugs Bunny in the much-loved 2003 Looney Tunes flick .
He seemed to have the world at his feet, and then he disappeared for nearly two decades.
Now, his fans are calling him. Yes, it’s a ”Brenaissance”.
With multiple movie roles either in pre- or post-production, we’re now getting a first look at The Whaleand his appearance is worlds away from the handsome, nice-guy movie star we once knew.
Director Darren Aronofsky (black swan, The Wrestler), posted the first image of Fraser’s transformation.
Brendan Fraser will once again walk the red carpet
Ranked among the most prestigious international film festivals, and often a telling precursor for Oscars buzz, The Whale is top-listed in competition at this year’s 79th Venice International Film Festival.
Kicking off on August 31, a who’s who of Hollywood will rub shoulders on the red carpet, and view some of the 49 films on offer from 19 countries.
Cate Blanchett, Hugh Jackman and Joel Edgerton are expected to show up at the Palazzo Del Cinema, including Timothée Chalamet, Adam Driver, Olivia Wilde, Harry Styles, Penelope Cruz, Ana de Armas, Christoph Waltz and Mia Goth.
And… drum roll. Brendan Fraser and his co-star Sadie Sink (Stranger Things).
The Whale is based on Samuel D Hunter’s play and stars Fraser, who has to transform into a heavyweight, 272-kilogram reclusive English teacher called Charlie.
It’s his story of attempting to reconnect with his daughter Ellie, 17, played by Sink.
The two have not seen each other since he abandoned his family for his late gay lover.
”It’s gonna be like something you haven’t seen before,” Fraser told Unilad last year when asked about The Whale.
”That’s really all I can tell you.
”The wardrobe and costume was extensive, seamless, cumbersome.
”This is certainly far removed from anything I’ve ever done but not to be coy.
”I do know it’s going to make a lasting impression.”

He’s already made lasting impressions – good, and sad
The Whale marks Fraser’s first starring role since his 2013 action movie Breakoutbut it was his breakout performance as the lead character in 1997’s George of the Jungle where he got noticed.
After several uncredited roles, small parts in TV series, and several low-budget flicks including Encino Man in 1992, his Tarzan depiction was one of his first successful films at the box office, and grossed more than $174 million worldwide, according to IMDb.
Then enter Rick O’Connell, American adventurer and a former colonel of the French Foreign Legion, who first awakens mummies in 1999 and gets chased around the pyramids. There are wives and kids involved so it’s all good.
In 2001, Fraser reprized the role in The Mummy Returns and again in 2008 – The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor. The cult trilogy was so popular that a roller coaster was built at Universal Studios based on the films in their Hollywood and Florida theme parks.
At the height of his popularity, he hosted Saturday night Livehad a recurring role in scrubs from 2002 to 2004, and voiced characters in simpsons and The Fairly Odd Parentsnot to mention his looney tunes lead role and Journey to the Center of the Earth.

In the midst of it all, his life took a sad turn.
His marriage to Afton Smith ended in 2007 (they share three sons together), his mother passed away, he did a few awkward car-crash interviews, including one with SBS’s Marc Fennell in 2008 when a kidnapping stunt went horribly wrong.
A longy 2018 cover story in GQ went some way to explain his absence away from the spotlight.
“By the time I did the third mummy picture in China, I was put together with tape and ice — just, like, really nerdy and fetishy about ice packs,” he said.
“Screw-cap ice packs and downhill-mountain-biking pads, ’cause they’re small and light and they can fit under your clothes. I was building an exoskeleton for myself daily.”

During a seven-year period, he underwent a laminectomy, a partial knee replacement, several other procedures on his back and had his vocal cords repaired.
He took small roles to cope with his injury list and in 2016 was cast in a recurring role in popular drama series The Affair.
He started doing interviews again, including a not-so-friendly viral appearance on AOL’s BUILD YouTube channel.
He became an internet meme for his “sad” demeanor but viewers didn’t know his mother Carol had passed away just a few days earlier.
“I buried my mom,” he told GQ. “I think I was in mourning, and I didn’t know what that meant.”
In 2018, he came forward with allegations of sexual assault against an HFPA [Hollywood Foreign Press Association] member that he says groped him in 2003.
Let’s just say 2021 was his Brenaissance, and his fans were thrilled after watching Key’s TikTok, including Amanda Charles.
”I’m getting the vibe he’s not aware HOW behind him we all actually are … like he’s up there with Keanu Reeves on ‘wholesome national treasure’ list.”
An Ipswich Jets and Queensland Cup cult hero — and Melbourne Storm triallist — has died suddenly in Queensland, aged 28 years.
WARNING: Readers are advised that this story contains the name and images of an Indigenous sportsman who has died.
Key points:
Former Ipswich Jets standout Michael Purcell has died, aged 28, after a car crash in Brisbane
The fleet-footed Queensland Cup cult hero was known as “The Kangaroo Catcher”
Purcell was counted as one of the fastest players in Queensland during his time with Ipswich Jets and Brisbane Tigers
Michael Purcell — who was also known as “The Kangaroo Catcher” during his time at the Jets — died on Sunday after a car crash in Brisbane.
Tributes have flowed for the popular winger, who scored 68 tries in 82 games for the Jets and Easts Tigers.
“We are extremely saddened to hear of the passing of former Suzuki Brisbane Tigers Hostplus Cup player Michael Purcell, also known as ‘the Kangaroo Catcher’,” the Tigers said in a statement.
“Purcey, 28-years young, was Tigers player no. 1,344 and played nine games for the Tigers across the 2020 and 2021 Hostplus Cup seasons before being a part of Bulimba Bulldogs BRL Premier Grade squad in 2022.
“Thoughts and prayers are with Purcey’s family, friends, those he played with at the Tigers, Bulimba Bulldogs, Brothers, Ipswich Jets and the wider rugby league community.”
Purcell’s exploits led to him spending a pre-season with the Storm in 2021 before he returned to Queensland.

“Sending our deepest condolences to the family of Michael Purcell after his sudden passing,” the Storm said in a statement.
“Michael spent time with us during the pre-season of 2021 and also featured in our Albury trial.
“Our thoughts are with Purcey’s family and friends during this time.”
A serious knee problem had limited Purcell to one appearance this season — he made his return from injury with Brisbane A-grade club Bulimba.
At his best, Purcell was counted as one of the fastest players in Queensland, with his nickname coming from a story where he supposedly raced down a kangaroo in a cross-country race.
He also ran the New York Marathon in 2011 as part of athletics legend Robert de Castella’s Marathon Project.
