Song Jae-Rim, the South Korean actor known for his role in K-drama ‘The Moon Embracing The Sun’, is dead.

According to Korean media outlet Soompi, Jae Rim was discovered dead in his apartment in Seoul’s Seongdong district on November 12. He was 39.

A two-page letter was reportedly discovered at the scene. Although the cause of his death has not been revealed, there are rumours on social media that the actor may have committed suicide.

The authorities also said there are “no signs of foul play” at this time and that the investigation into the actor’s death is still ongoing.

Song Jae Rim’s burial is scheduled to take place at a funeral home in Yeouido on November 14.

Born on February 18, 1985, Jae Rim began his career as a runway model and appeared on the covers of numerous magazines.

He started acting in 2009 but got his big break for his role in ‘The Moon Embracing The Sun’, the 2012 drama series.

Oprah Winfrey, the media executive, has denied claims that she received a $1 million payment to campaign for Kamala Harris.

Donald Trump, the Republican standard-bearer, recently defeated Harris, candidate of the Democratic Party in the United States presidential election, to become the 47th president.

But on November 8, Washington Examiner alleged that Winfrey’s company Harpo Productions received the payment to host a celebrity town hall meeting.

The newspaper claimed the $1 million was part of a $1 billion raised by Harris to fund the election.

The report alleged the campaign “paid more than $15 million, according to federal filings,” on “event production”.

“This included a $1 million payment to Harpo Productions for the ‘Unite for America’ event, which took place in September,” it added.

Winfrey had hosted a town hall meeting for Harris on September 19, which featured prominent celebrities like Chris Rock, Jennifer Lopez, and Meryl Streep. She also appeared as a keynote speaker at Harris’ rally in Philadelphia.

Despite her involvement in the rally, the 70-year-old television host maintained that she did not receive any payment for her support.

In an interview with TMZ, Winfrey denied the report, saying “it is untrue”.

“Not true. I was paid nothing ever,” she said.

In a statement, Harpo Productions confirmed that the Harris campaign had paid for the costs of the town hall, without giving a specific figure.

“Oprah Winfrey was at no point during the campaign paid a personal fee, nor did she receive a fee from Harpo,” it added.

After a previous miscarriage, American actress Megan Fox has announced that she and her husband-to-be rapper Machine Gun Kelly (MGK) are expecting their first child together.

The actress took to Instagram in the late hours of November 12, 2024, to announce the happy news. She posted a picture from her maternity shoot cradling her baby bump while covered in black liquid, tagging Kelly in the photo. The second picture showed her positive pregnancy home test in her hand.

Her caption read, “Nothing is ever really lost. Welcome back,” a nod to MGK’s song last November about his and Fox’s past pregnancy loss.

This will be Fox’s fourth child and Kelly’s second. Fox is already mum to sons 12-year-old Noah, 10-year-old Bodhi, and eight-year-old Journey, with ex-husband Brian Austin Green, while Kelly is dad to daughter Casie.

The pair first met in March 2020 on the set of Midnight in the Switchgrass and went public with their relationship after she appeared in his Bloody Valentine music video in May of the same year.

They got engaged in January 2022 and Fox announced it on her Instagram by sharing a video of MGK getting on his knees to propose to her.

In her caption, she wrote, “In July of 2020, we sat under this banyan tree,” Fox wrote in the caption of her post. “We asked for magic. We were oblivious to the pain we would face together in such a short, frenetic period of time. Unaware of the work and sacrifices the relationship would require from us but intoxicated off of the love. And the karma.”
