Anne Hathaway raised concerns about ‘skeletal’ models on the set of ‘The Devil Wears Prada 2’

Anne Hathaway had a subtle hand in the casting of "The Devil Wears Prada 2."

Co-star Meryl Streep — who will reprise her role as Miranda Priestly in the sequel —told Harper's Bazaarthat, while filming a Dolce & Gabanna fashion showduring Milan Fashion week, they were "struck by how not only beautiful and young … but alarmingly thin the models were …"

Streep explained, "I thought that all had been addressed years ago. Annie clocked it too and she made a beeline to the producers about it, securing promises that the models in the show that we were putting together for our film would not be so skeletal!"

"She's a stand-up girl," Streep added.

There's a lot of pressure on the film, which will be released on May 1, 20 years after the original.

Hathaway noted that the main difference between the sequel and the original release is that the former was made "in view."'

"The first movie was such an unknown quantity," the publication notes, "that fashion brands were initially hesitant to get on board and lend clothes."

Now, not only are designers now clambering to be featured in the next chapter of the story — with the characters decked out inhead-to-toe designer and jewels— but the cast and crew were hounded by fans in the streets of NYC.

Recalling the "avid attention that engulfed" the production, Streep shares, "Annie kept her cool, but I was unnerved."

However, there was one moment where Hathaway got flustered:when she took a tumble on set.

"I was aware that I was falling, I was aware that I was being photographed, and I was also aware that, like, so many people on the crew, their hearts had just jumped up into their throat, so I needed to get up quickly to make sure they knew I was okay," said. But the star later told director David Frankel, "Oh no. I'm news."

Two British men detained in a suspected antisemitic hate crime are released on bail

LONDON (AP) — British police said Thursday that two men arrested in connection with anarson attack that destroyed four ambulancesowned by a Jewish charity have been released on bail as they continue to investigate the suspected antisemitic hate crime.

The two British nationals, aged 45 and 47, were detained Wednesday on suspicion of arson with intent to endanger life, London's Metropolitan Police Service said in a statement. The men were released under strict bail conditions and will be closely monitored, police said.

Authorities on Wednesday described the arrests as an important breakthrough in the case, but noted that three people were visible in the closed-circuit camera footage of the attack.

"We continue to work to try and identify all of those involved in this appalling attack and the investigation team is working around the clock to do this,'' said Commander Helen Flanagan, head of Counter Terrorism Policing London.

Police are investigating a claim of responsibility by a group with potential links to Iran but have not declared the matter to be a terror attack.

The blaze early on Monday morning in Golders Green, a London neighborhood with a large Jewish population, destroyed four ambulances belonging to the volunteer organization Hatzola Northwest, which provides emergency care to residents of the area. Oxygen cylinders in the vehicles exploded, breaking windows in an adjacent apartment block.

US appeals court sides with Trump administration on detaining immigrants without bond

The U.S. can continue to detain immigrants without bond, an appeals court ruled on Wednesday, handing a victory to the Trump administration's crackdown on immigration.

The opinion from a panel of the 8th Circuit Court of Appeals in St. Louis overturned a lower court ruling that required that a native of Mexico arrested for lacking legal documents be given a bond hearing before an immigration judge.

It's the second appeals court to rule in favor of the administration on this issue. The 5th Circuit in New Orleansruled last monththat the Department of Homeland Security's decision to deny bond hearings to immigrants arrested across the country was consistent with the Constitution and federal immigration law.

Both appeals court opinions counterrecent lower court decisionsacross the country that argued the practice is illegal.

InNovember, a district court decision in Californiagranted detained immigrants with no criminal history the opportunity to request a bond hearing and had implications for noncitizens held in detention nationwide.

Under past administrations,most noncitizenswith no criminal recordwho were arrested awayfrom the border had an opportunity to request a bond hearing while their cases wound through immigration court. Historically, bond was often granted to those without criminal convictions who were not flight risks, and mandatory detention was limited to recent border crossers.

In the case before the 8th Circuit, Joaquin Herrera Avila of Mexico was apprehended in Minneapolis in August 2025 for lacking legal documents authorizing his admission into the United States. The Department of Homeland Security detained Avila without bond and began deportation proceedings.

He filed a petition seeking immediate release or a bond hearing. A federal judge in Minnesota granted the petition, saying the law authorized detention without bond when a person seeking admission is not clearly and beyond a doubt entitled to being admitted. The judge found this was not the case for Avila because he had lived in the country for years without seeking naturalization, asylum or refugee status and thus wasn't "seeking admission."

Circuit Court Judge Bobby E. Shepherd wrote for the majority in a 2-1 opinion that the law was "clear that an "applicant for admission" is also an alien who is "seeking admission," and so Avila couldn't petition on these grounds.

Circuit Court Judge Ralph R. Erickson dissented, saying that Avila would have been entitled to a bond hearing during his deportation hearings if he had been arrested during the past 29 years. Now, he wrote, the Circuit Court has ruled that Avila and millions of others would be subject to mandatory detention under a novel interpretation of "alien seeking admission" that hasn't been used by the courts or five previous presidential administrations.

The American Civil Liberties Union, which is representing Avila, didn't immediately return an email message seeking comment.

Attorney General Pam Bondi hailed the ruling, writing in a social media post: "MASSIVE COURT VICTORY against activist judges and for President Trump's law and order agenda!"

At question is the issue of whether the government is required to ask a neutral judge to to determine whether it is legal to imprison someone.

It's based on thehabeas corpus, which is a Latin legal term referring to the constitutional right for people to legally challenge their detention by the government.

Immigrants have filed more than 30,000 habeas corpus petitions in federal court alleging illegal detention since Trump took office, according to a tally by The Associated Press. Many have succeeded.

"Then, on Sunday, when I was cleaning my bike outside my house, he rode past once, twice, and on the second time, I walked out in front of him, and I said, 'You've got to stop. Someone's going to get hurt,'" Taylor recalled.

"Then it escalated quite quickly from there," he added. "I did push him because he was coming toward me on his bike."
