CELEBRITY REPORT
NBC cancels Megyn Kelly’s
show after blackface controversy
Megyn Kelly, the former Fox News Chan
nel personality who made a rocky transi
tion to softer news at NBC, was fired from
her morning show Friday after triggering a
furor by suggesting it’s OK for white people
to wear blackface at Halloween.
‘“Megyn Kelly Today’ is not returning,”
NBC News said in a statement. The show
occupied the fourth hour of NBC’s “Today”
program, a time slot that will be hosted by
other co-anchors beginning next week, the
network said.
NBC didn’t address Kelly’s future at the
network. But negotiations over her exit from
NBC are underway, according to a person
familiar with the talks who wasn’t autho
rized to discuss the matter publicly and
spoke on condition of anonymity.
Kelly is in the second year of a three-year
contract that reportedly pays her more than
$20 million a year.
A representative for Kelly did not immedi
ately respond to a request for comment.
Trump says Twitter
removed followers — but
he’s actually gained them
President Donald Trump is claiming that
Twitter has removed “many people” from
his account. But he actually gained followers
this month.
According to the Internet Archive’s Way-
back Machine, which collects snapshots of
web pages over time, Trump had 54.8 mil
lion followers on Oct. 1. He had 55.3 million
as of Friday.
Trump is suggesting “total bias” as he
tweeted Friday that the company has “seem
ingly done something that makes it much
harder to join.”
The company didn’t address Trump’s
claim directly, but says “many prominent
accounts” have seen follower counts drop as
it works to remove malicious accounts and
bots. The company said Thursday it lost 9
million users in the latest quarter, largely as
a result of these efforts.
Meghan’s wedding gown goes
on display at Windsor Castle
Meghan, the Duchess of Sussex, has
described how she worked with designer
Clare Waight Keller of Givenchy to create a
“timeless” wedding gown for her wedding to
Prince Harry earlier this year.
Harry and the former Meghan Markle
recorded their memories of the wedding for
an audio commentary that is part of the new
“Relive the Royal Wedding” exhibition at
Windsor Castle that opened Friday.
The gown and the five-meter-long veil
Meghan wore with it are set to be the prime
attraction at the 10-week display.
In the audio recording, the former actress
said she had a clear idea of what she wanted
to wear from the start.
“I knew at the onset I wanted a bateau
neckline, I wanted a cropped sleeve, I
wanted a very timeless, classic feeling,” she
said.
The dress also needed to be suitably mod
est for the May 19 wedding held in a chapel
on the grounds of Windsor Castle, she said.
“There was a great level of detail that
went into the planning of our wedding day,”
said Meghan, who is pregnant with the cou
ple’s first child.
“I think for us, we knew how large the
scale of the event would be, so in making
choices that were really personal and mean
ingful, it could make the whole experience
feel intimate, even though it was a very big
wedding,” the duchess said.

SINGLE COPY

Mon.-Sat. and $2.00 on Sun.
ARIES (March 21-April 19). It’s
better not to get too deep into
why people behave as they
do. It could have something to
do with you, but likely not. You
won’t regret staying within
your own boundaries and let
ting others do the same.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20).
You know someone really likes
you when that person tries
to be an all-around improved
and heightened version
around you. And when it’s you
doing this, it’s a fair indication
that you’re the one smitten.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21).
Stop putting it off! (And don’t
pretend like you don’t know
what this horoscope is about.)
Not to live the life you want to
live is an abuse of the present.
CANCER (June 22-July 22).
Whether or not you feel that
you’ve been adequately
loved, you are able to offer
this to others. The big ques
tion is if you can you give it to
yourself. Not everyone capa
ble of self-nurturing. Hopefully
you are. It will be essential to
growth.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Com
munication gets tricky. If no
one cares to try harder, con
versation might devolve into
people droning on about what
they know instead people
connecting with one another.
You can steer it into better out
comes.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).
Though other value systems
may different from yours, that
doesn’t make them wrong.
Stars illuminate your humani
tarian instincts. And people are
attracted to your instinct for
tolerance and inclusion.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-0ct. 23). You
came here to learn. So did
they, although they might not
be as in touch with their origi
nal intent. Embrace imperfec
tion and open yourself to the
lesson.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). In
convenient happenings can be
fortuitous and seemingly lucky
happenings can turn out to be
a major pain. So don’t be quick
to judge. What happens will be
pretty funny regardless of the
ultimate outcome.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec.
21). You sometimes question
what people want from you,
and this is only smart. You
don’t have to be a cynic to be
on guard against the darker
inclinations of human nature.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
Blood is thicker than gossip.
When it comes to your fam
ily, you’re fiercely protective
regardless of whether they are
in the right or not. And, if nec
essary, they would be similarly
protective of you.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18).
Pretending to be confident
isn’t the same as being confi
dent. But the people who act
like they have it all together
don’t fool you. You’d much
rather see the confidence that
comes from admitting the
struggle.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).
Thoughts have power, so take
control before they take control
of you. And don’t be surprised
if your feelings are all over the
place today. Ecstasy, jealousy,
agony and boredom could all
happen in the span of an hour.
