Just four days ago, as Mexico was preparing to celebrate Father’s Day, the minister of the nation’s Supreme Court, Arturo Zaldívar, shared in networks where he has become something of a star the gift that his wife is preparing for him had. . A quaint cake in the shape of a record player and a vinyl record in the center: Taylor Swift’s reputation. “Thank you Marianna for this beautiful and delicious cake. “With my favorite song and the amazing Taylor Swift,” the message said. The Minister’s thousands of declarations of affection for the singer, which have been voiced with greater enthusiasm in recent weeks, prompted criticism and cheers from her fans and critics alike. The former Supreme Court President has responded with a letter explaining why he likes his songs.

It all started with the announcement that Swift would be extending her The Eras tour to Mexico, with three dates in late August 2023. Prior to the news, which was announced earlier this month, Zaldívar had stated that he was a fan of the singer some videos and posts. He had shared that he had received his gift album, or even commented on some songs as they came to light. But when he found out about the tour, he began to make the tour even more intense. In a video from three weeks ago, he can be seen working with his team when he allegedly found out that the artist was announcing the dates in Mexico. First you see him surprised by the news and then you see him running towards him with his workers, laughing.

Zaldívar’s jokes and posts drew a flood of reactions, many in the form of criticism. Some were already calling him the Swiftie [como se les dice a los fanáticos de Swift] most notable in Mexico. Others accuse him of using the singer’s image to gain followers. Some riskier people have accused him of wasting his time on this issue when he has more important things to do. In response to all these comments, the minister published a statement in the newspaper Milenio to defend his position, but above all the work of the American singer.

“Those who criticize me for liking Taylor Swift don’t know what she represents to millions of women and young people around the world,” she commented on her Twitter account on Tuesday. In a letter that is seen as a self-confessed act of love, Zaldívar assured that the singer was “a cry of rebellion, an example of intellectual honesty and a waste of dreams of all colors and sounds”. His lyrics remind us that it’s okay to be vulnerable, to be different, to be wrong, and to love yourself completely. For his authenticity, his courage and his congruence.”

To those who accused him of shallowness, Zaldívar replied, “There is nothing trivial about Swift’s work.” and more inclusive society,” defended the minister. These reasons, and others he develops in his column, are why he listens to Taylor Swift, he said. This Wednesday, the former President of the Court published the same letter in its English version on his social networks.

The Mexican minister is not the only important person to pay tribute to the work of the artist, who is one of the greatest musical phenomena of our time and whose fans are mainly young people. Chilean President Gabriel Boric is another outspoken supporter of Swift. The president assured this week that he had sent him a letter urging him to include the country in his Latin America tour. Even economist Paul Krugman published a column in the New York Times this week admitting that the artist is “a highly talented songwriter and musician with a remarkable stage presence.”

The two reunite for the long-awaited Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One, which hits UK cinemas on July 10th.

Talking to Chris Moyles on his radio show

Simon also recalled the hilarious moment when he was in a car accident during filming while Tom was in the passenger seat, very different from Hollywood star exploits.

What is it? Simon Pegg has revealed the one thing Tom Cruise has vowed he’ll never do on screen as the pair return to the Mission Impossible franchise

He said, “I’m driving up that hill and director Chris McQuarrie says, ‘Look at Tom, look at a Tom.’ There are three cameras mounted on the car and I’m trying to figure out where I’m going in this damn expensive car and he says.” still: “Look at Tom, look at Tom, look at Tom!”

“I’m trying to figure out where I’m going and I just bumped into this huge rock, kind of went over there and smashed the car.”

Chris added: “What do you do if that happens?” Simon replied: “Laugh it’s not my car is it!” [all laugh]… I have Cruise in the passenger seat and like he’s jumping off cliffs on bikes, and I can’t even drive a car up a hill.”

Host Chris then asked the The World’s End star: “There must be something. What can you do better, there must be things…?”

Simon replied, “I’m better than him at accents, we play around a lot on set and to hear him try to put on a British accent it’s hilarious.”

“It’s somewhere between Dick Van [Dyke]”I mean, Tom Cruise can pretty much do anything, but he’ll never play a Brit.”

Simon then revealed that Tom is dying to meet his longtime pal Nick, with whom he has starred in three films.

He said, “He’s never met Tom and Tom’s kind of pissed off about that.” He’s like, “Why haven’t I met Nick Frost?” and I think Nick’s just being passive-aggressive, like, “Purgh, I will not meeting your new friend when you go and work with him.” “Anyone else, I won’t meet him… whoever he is.”

Funny: The actor joked that while his co-star doesn’t shy away from daredevil stunts in his action-packed roles, he’s always struggled to convey an authentic British accent

It’s back! The two reunite for the long-awaited Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One, which hits UK cinemas on July 10th

“No, he’s cool, we’re always there for each other and we always celebrate each other’s successes. My favorite thing to work with is Nick and I will continue to work with Nick but whenever I see him in anything I’m always so proud of him. ‘He’s the best.’

In the seventh Mission Impossible film, Ethan Hunk and his team take on their most terrifying mission yet: they must track down a terrifying new weapon threatening humanity before it falls into the wrong hands.

With control of the future and fate of the world at stake and dark forces from Ethan’s past on the rise, a deadly race across the globe begins.

When Ethan is confronted by a mysterious, all-powerful enemy, he must realize that nothing can be more important than his mission – not even the lives of those he cares about most.

This comes after Tom opened up about why he and director Christopher McQuarrie shot the film’s most dangerous scene first.

In the scene, the actor is seen falling off a cliff on a motorcycle before activating a parachute that lands him safely on the ground as the motorcycle crashes.

Tom explained to Entertainment Tonight that the reason for filming the dangerous stunt first was to ensure the $200 million film wouldn’t be canceled from the start in the event of an injury.

“Well, we know, we either go ahead with the movie or we don’t — let us know on day one!” Cruise, who plays Ethan Hunt in the action film series, told the outlet.

The veteran Hollywood star continued, “Let us know what’s going to happen on day one: are we all moving forward or is it a big recast?”

The show business star injured his ankle during the production of ‘Mission: Impossible 6,’ which impacted filming.

The star actor said he was intensely focused on the motorcycle sequence, which required extreme physical precision.

“I trained and I was ready,” Cruise said. “You have to be razor sharp when you do something like that.”

“When preparing the film, it was very important that it was actually the first. I don’t want to drop that and shoot other things and have my mind elsewhere.’

He added of the take on the shoot, “Everybody was prepared — let’s just get it done.”
