Ariana Grande and Lady Gaga shine at the MTV VMAs with wins and performances
Ariana Grande and Lady Gaga set the tone at the MTV Video Music Awards on Sunday night with career-defining moments of their own, Associated Press reported.
Grande scored two honors — video of the year and best pop video — and had the audience buzzing when she thanked her “therapists and gay people” during her acceptance speech.
Gaga, the night’s top nominee, kicked things off by winning artist of the year before later delivering on her promise to perform. She hit the stage at Madison Square Garden after her acceptance speech, which sent the audience into a frenzy at the UBS Arena where the VMAs were being held.
In her earlier remarks, Gaga stressed the deeper meaning of artistry, according to Associated Press.
US independent director Jim Jarmusch proves surprise Venice winner
U.S. indie director Jim Jarmusch unexpectedly won the coveted Golden Lion at the Venice Film Festival on Saturday with "Father Mother Sister Brother", a three-part meditation on the uneasy ties between parents and their adult children, Reuters reported.
Although his gentle comedy received largely positive reviews, it had not been a favourite for the top prize, with many critics instead tipping "The Voice of Hind Rajab", a harrowing true-life account of the killing of a five-year-old Palestinian girl during the Gaza war.
In the end, the film directed by Tunisia's Kaouther Ben Hania took the runner-up Silver Lion.
Divided into chapters set in New Jersey, Dublin and Paris, "Father Mother Sister Brother" features an ensemble cast including Tom Waits, Adam Driver, Mayim Bialik, Charlotte Rampling, Cate Blanchett, Vicky Krieps, Indya Moore and Luka Sabbat, according to Reuters.
