Kate Moss Opens Up About The ‘Painful’ Side Of Modeling

British supermodel Kate Moss has revealed some past pitfalls from her modeling career in a rare interview with BBC podcast series Desert Island Discs. Moss, who told T magazine in 2010 that she "just hate(s)" talking with the media -- and that as a young model she "used to get very ill just worrying" about interviews she'd given -- opened up to host Lauren Laverne about "painful" experiences she underwent in the industry. Iconic shoots that helped define her career were oftentimes "difficult and painful" behind the scenes, according to Moss.

"(Wahlberg) was very macho and it was all about him, he had a big entourage,...

Supreme Court To Issue Final Ruling On Sonko’s Impeachment

The Supreme Court is expected to issue a ruling later on Friday on whether or not former Nairobi governor Mike Sonko was properly impeached from office.

Uganda Arrests Eight Protesting Over Living Costs

Ugandan President Yoweri Museveni says his government will not intervene in the current economic situation amid a rising cost of living. Prices of petroleum products, imported raw materials and food have been rising in recent months, a crisis being experienced globally following the war in Ukraine. In a televised national address on Sunday night, Mr Museveni said that government subsidies or removal of import taxes would collapse the economy. There would be a haemorrhage of dollars from the national reserves for the purchase of those expensive products, he added. Mr Museveni said Uganda will need to frugally use the imported items it can afford. He advised citizens to substitute expensive wheat with locally available food such as millet, maize, green bananas and cassava...
