Sandra Bullock’s Instagram Debut Includes Nicole Kidman Interaction

Sandra Bullockhad been avoiding Instagram for the longest time, but she finally made a debut this week — and her exchange withNicole Kidmanis making rounds on the internet. Her arrival on the platform felt like an iconic pop culture moment all on its own.

Bullock did not ease into it, either. She showed up with the same dry humor people know from her movies and, within hours, she started chatting in the comments with famous friends, including Channing Tatum.

Sandra Bullock comments on Nicole Kidman’s post upon Instagram debut

The biggest reaction to Sandra Bullock’s Instagram debut came from her interaction with Nicole Kidman. After creating her account,Bullockbegan leaving playful comments across Instagram, starting with a jab at her “The Lost City” co-star Channing Tatum. On a fan post referencing his 2024 GQ interview, Bullock wrote, “Of course you did,” adding a winking emoji.

But it was her comment under Kidman’s post that got fans talking. Kidman had previously posted behind-the-scenes footage from the set, showing the two actors hugging as a director’s voice says, “Still rolling.”

The “Scarpetta” actor captioned it, “The witches are back. Owens sisters’ first day on set!” — and Bullock, now officially on Instagram, jumped into the comments with, “Oh we’re so back.”

Additionally, Bullock commented on other friends’ posts, includingJennifer Aniston’s. Bullockwrote, “Me next mama? Going for a witchy look…” — a line that was a playful nod back to the “Practical Magic 2” excitement.

Sandra Bullock’s decision to make an Instagram debut marks a major change from her past stance. In a statement toPEOPLElast year, she said, “Please be aware that I do not participate in any form of social media,” while calling out impersonators.

And now, with one comment to Kidman, Bullock signaled that she has made her social media debut, and she knows exactly what fans want to see, especially when it comes to the return of the Owens sisters.

Nightclub manager speaks out after Ruby Rose claim that Katy Perry sexually assaulted her

• A former manager at the nightclub where Ruby Rose has alleged Katy Perry sexually assaulted her observed the two on the evening in question.

Key Points

• The manager recalls the evening being "a security nightmare" requiring special treatment of the actress and singer.

• Rose has alleged on social media that Perry exposed herself and rubbed against Rose's face, a claim Perry denies.

AfterRuby Roserecently accusedKaty Perryofsexually assaulting herat an Australian nightclub, one of the venue's former managers is sharing his memories of the 2010 evening.

In an interview with theHerald Sun, the former hot spot boss recalled Rose and Perry arriving together at Melbourne's Spice Market, along with a few others. The group was roped off in their own area, so the unnamed man was unaware of any assault, but he shared what problems did arise.

“It was a security nightmare because there were 600 people there and Katy kept coming out and dancing with everybody and going right in the middle of the mosh pit," he said. “[Rose and Perry] were drunk; they weren’t paralytic or anything, just like any other person drinking at a nightclub."

Because they were public figures, the man said that "we didn’t want someone taking photos of them drunk like that," and so they eventually escorted the women out of a back fire exit and put them in car together, believing they were then off to a hotel.

On Sunday,Rose wrote on Threadsthat Perry sexually assaulted her that night. "She saw me 'resting' on my best friends lap to avoid her and bent down, pulled her underwear to the side and rubbed her disgusting vagina on my face until my eyes snapped open and I projectile vomited on her," Rose alleged. "It has taken almost 2 decades to say this publicly. Though I am so grateful to have made it long enough to find my voice, it just shows how much of an impact trauma and sexual assault takes."

In response, a representative for Perry toldEntertainment Weekly, "The allegations being circulated on social media by Ruby Rose about Katy Perry are not only categorically false, they are dangerous, reckless lies. Ms. Rose has a well-documented history of making serious public allegations on social media against various individuals, claims that have repeatedly been denied by those named."

Since speaking out on social media, Rose has gone tothe authorities. In a statement obtained Wednesday byEW, a representative for the Victoria Police confirmed that "Melbourne Sexual Offences and Child Abuse Investigation Team (SOCIT) detectives are investigating a historical [alleged] sexual assault that occurred in Melbourne in 2010."

The statement added that "police have been told the [alleged] incident occurred at a licensed premises in Melbourne’s [central business district]," and that the "the investigation remains ongoing."

EWhas reached out to representatives for Perry and Rose for a response.

ICE detains 86-year-old in US to marry long-lost love, family says

An 86-year-old French woman who moved to the United States to marry her long-lost love decades after they first met is being held at an immigration detention facility, her family has said.

The woman, identified as Marie-Thérèse Helene Ross, was detained byImmigration and Customs Enforcementofficers on April 1 and remains in custody at a detention facility in Louisiana, according to the Department of Homeland Security.

One of her sonstold the French newspaper Ouest-Francethat ICE did not notify the family of his mother’s detainment and that they only found out after French consular officials visited her.

Louisiana ICE detention centers key to Trump immigration policies

"They handcuffed her hands and feet like she was a dangerous criminal," her son told the outlet. "For us it’s urgent to get her out of the detention center and bring her back to France. Given her health, she won’t last a month in such conditions of detention."

In an emailed statement to USA TODAY, DHS described Ross as an "illegal alien from France."

"She last entered the country in June 2025 under the Visa Waiver Program, which permitted her to remain in the country for 90 days," the statement said. "Seven months later, she is still illegally in the United States."

In response to questions about Ross' health, DHS said ICE "maintains longstanding practices to provide comprehensive medical care." The agency also urged undocumented immigrants to "self-deport" or risk being "arrested and deported without a chance to return."

Her family did not respond to requests for comment.

Couple reunites after more than five decades apart

Ross moved to the United States in 2025 to pursue a romance with a former U.S. serviceman with whom she fell in love in the 1950s when she worked at a NATO base in western France. The pair were forced to separate in the 1960s after France withdrew from NATO’s integrated military command structure,the Guardian reported.

The two went on to marry other people but reconnected on social media in 2010, her family told Ouest-France. After their respective partners died, Ross moved to Anniston, Alabama, to rekindle their relationship and get married.

Ross’ son said they were like "a couple of teenagers."

But after less than a year together in Alabama, the man died in January. Ross had not yet obtained paperwork that would allow her to remain in the country, her family said. Days before a court hearing related to a dispute with one of her late husband’s children, she was detained by immigration agents.

"Our mother’s a fighter – a force of nature," Ross' son told Ouest-France, adding that they are racing to get her out of ICE detention. "The others being held call her unsinkable."

The arrest comes as the DHS faces scrutiny for itsaggressive immigration enforcement, including the arrests of spouses of U.S. veterans and service members. In early April, ICE agents arrested the wife of a U.S. Army sergeant at a base in Louisiana. The woman, Annie Ramos, a Honduran immigrant who entered the U.S. as a toddler, was released days later.

Nicole Kidman has shared that she's learning to become a death doula

NEED TO KNOW

• The actress explained during a talk on Saturday, April 11, that she had the idea after her mother died aged 84 in 2024

• "As my mother was passing, she was lonely, and there was only so much the family could provide," she explained

"As my mother was passing, she was lonely, and there was only so much the family could provide," Kidman told attendees, via theChronicle. TheHollandactresshas four children, while her younger sisterAntonia Kidman, 55, has six.

She continued, "Between my sister and I, we have so many children and our careers and our work, and wanting to take care of her because my father wasn't in the world anymore, and that's when I went, ‘I wish there was these people in the world that were there to sit impartially and just provide solace and care.'
