Rupert Murdoch has gotten married for the fifth time. The 93-year-old media mogul wed 67-year-old retired molecular biologist Elena Zhukova on Saturday, The Hollywood Reporter has confirmed. The ceremony took place at Murdoch’s California vineyard, reportedly the Moraga estate in Bel Air.
The couple announced their engagement in early March.
Murdoch’s marital history includes four previous marriages. His first marriage was to Patricia Booker in 1956, which ended in divorce in 1967. That same year, he married Scottish journalist and novelist Anna Torv. They had three children together but ultimately parted ways in 1999.
Shortly after divorcing Torv, Murdoch married Wendi Deng, then vice president of Star TV, a company acquired by News Corp in 1993. They had two daughters before divorcing in 2013. Three years later, Murdoch married Jerry Hall; their marriage was short-lived, as Hall filed for divorce in July 2022. A month after their divorce, the business magnate moved on with Ann Lesley Smith.

Pictures of the couple have been released to Murdoch’s own Sun newspaper following the ceremony which took place Saturday afternoon.
Elena Zhukova’s wedding dress was designed by New Zealand-born, London-based designer Emilia Wickstead.

London – A psychedelic eye mosaic commissioned by John Lennon for the swimming pool at his Kenwood home in Surrey in 1965 leads Bonhams’ Rock, Pop & Film sale on Wednesday 29 November at Knightsbridge, London.
Claire Tole-Moir, Bonhams Head of Popular Culture in London, commented: “This monumental mosaic, commissioned by John Lennon is a striking example of the Beatle’s artistic vision and influences. Lennon’s Kenwood home in the English countryside was a place of respite from all the public attention he experienced during the height of The Beatles’ popularity. It’s said Lennon would spend idle hours near the swimming pool and that the mosaic could even be seen from his favoured ‘sunroom’ at the top of the house. With Kenwood still under private ownership, it is very rare to see anything from when John Lennon lived there, making the ‘Psychedelic Eye’ mosaic an incredibly important artefact of Beatles history.”

Last year, we lost Goodfellas star Ray Liotta, who passed away in his sleep at the age of 67. Now Deadline has shared a previously unreleased interview they conducted with Liotta a couple years before he died – and during the interview, Liotta mentioned that he felt stupid for turning down a role in director Tim Burton‘s 1989 version of Batman.
Batman first came up when Liotta was talking about writer/director Noah Baumbach’s Netflix-released film Marriage Story, which he had a role in. He said, “They started with the Batman stuff and triggered the whole comic book genre, and now most of the studios are putting an unbelievable amount of money into things like that. But movies like this one, Marriage Story… Thank God for Netflix, because they’ll finance your movie. I don’t know who else would give money for Marriage Story. It’s a great movie,...

The real life inspirations for powerful oligarch Logan Roy and his dysfunctional family on Succession are well-documented. Roy and his right wing media empire Waystar Royco are very clearly based on Australian billionaire Rupert Murdoch and his News Corp imprint. Neither HBO nor Succession creator Jesse Armstrong made much of an effort to hide that early on.
In fact, the seed for the idea that would eventually bloom into the beloved four-season drama began when Armstrong sought to tell the real life story of the Murdoch family’s malevolent influence on the world. In the book Succession: The Complete Scripts, Armstrong fleshes out what that story would have been like.
“The original idea, a faux-documentary laying out Rupert Murdoch’s business secrets, with them delivered straight to camera, evolved as I worked into a sort of TV play, set at the media owner’s 80th birthday party. Channel 4 were supportive,...

Austrian actor Helmut Berger, the groundbreaking star of European cinematic masterpieces such as Luchino Visconti’s “The Damned” and Vittorio De Sica’s “Garden of the Finzi-Continis,” has died at the age of 78. Berger died at home in Austria from natural causes.
In one of European cinema’s most storied and creative periods, the 60s and 70s, Berger boldly established his place in the pantheon of Continental stars via a handful of films directed by Visconti, his one-time romantic partner. “The Damned,” “Ludwig” and “Conversation Piece” were all crafted with standout roles for Berger and the films were hugely successful both at the arthouse box office and with critics and awards groups.

Berger was nominated for a Golden Globe for “The Damned,” which was also nominated for a Best Screenplay Oscar in 1970. No less an authority than the late German filmmaking maestro Rainer Werner Fassbinder called it “perhaps the greatest film,...

According to Gabriel Sherman, a journalist who has covered the Murdochs for decades, the couple’s divorce settlement had a clause preventing Hall from talking to the writers of the HBO drama series, Succession, which draws influence from the Murdoch family’s interpersonal dynamics. Just like the fictional TV show, Murdoch’s four children are fighting over who will inherit the business when he dies.

A new report has claimed that Rupert Murdoch’s son Lachlan accused his brother, James, of leaking lines to the writers of Succession.
The acclaimed HBO series focuses on a corporate power struggle between ailing Murdoch-esque media mogul Logan Roy (Brian Cox) and his children.
While the show’s creators have often played down any direct parallels to real-life people or events, viewers have drawn numerous comparisons between the Roys and the Murdochs.
A recent episode, for instance, saw Logan stand on paper boxes to deliver an impassioned speech to the staff at his Fox News-like TV network Atn. The moment bore close similarities to a real incident from 2007, when Murdoch stood on paper boxes to address staff at the Wall Street Journal.

Jerry Hall is one of the world’s most high-profile models. In the ’70s, she was a staple in the fashion and entertainment industry, with her high-profile celebrity relationships ensuring that her name stayed in the headlines. After Hall’s split from rocker Mick Jagger in 1999, she took up with the business magnate Rupert Murdoch.
While Hall and Murdoch were together for years, the two divorced in 2022. These days, Murdoch is engaged again. But Hall likely isn’t sweating it since she got some very expensive assets after her divorce from the billionaire.

Rupert Murdoch is single once more. A source close to the 92-year-old News Corp businessman and Ann Lesley Smith confirmed to Et that their engagement is off.
The news comes just weeks after the New York Post reported that Murdoch popped the question to the 66-year-old former San Francisco police chaplain, whom he planned to marry in late summer 2023.
“I was very nervous. I dreaded falling in love — but I knew this would be my last. It better be. I’m happy,” he told the outlet at the time. “We’re both looking forward to spending the second half of our lives together.”
“I’m a widow of 14 years,” Smith added. “Like Rupert, my husband was a businessman. Worked for local papers, developed radio and TV stations and helped promote Univision. So I speak Rupert’s language. We share the same beliefs.”
Murdoch divorced his fourth wife, Jerry Hall, last summer.

New York, March 20 (Ians) Less than a year after divorcing model-actress Jerry Hall, the 92-year-old Australian American media mogul, Rupert Murdoch, is hearing wedding bells again. He’s engaged to Ann Lesley Smith, a 66-year-old San Francisco police chaplain, reports ‘Variety’.
Quoting gossip columnist Cindy Adams, who broke the story in the ‘New York Post’, ‘Variety’ says Murdoch’s future wife was married to Chester Smith, a country-western singer, as well as a radio and TV executive who died in 2008.
Adams reports that the two bonded over their shared knowledge of the media business as well as the fact that she once owned a vineyard and he still does.
If they tie the knot, according to ‘Variety’, it will be Murdoch’s fifth marriage. Jerry Hall, a model and actress, was married to Murdoch for six years. In addition to Hall, Murdoch was previously married to Wendi Deng from 1999 to...

A column chronicling conversations and events on the awards circuit.
The votes are in. The ballots are being counted. The clock is ticking toward Oscar Sunday (which also is the day the clock ticks ahead as daylight-saving time begins). This also means the party circuit is in full bloom, and if you wondered if anyone was still worried about Covid, as has been the case for the past two Oscar seasons due to the pandemic, well, think again. As evidence, the two celebrations I hit on Thursday night — one for the Australian Oscar nominees, the other for Irish nominees – were packed to the max, barely a mask in sight. And if anyone was worried, it seems they have decided to party hearty instead, at least until the hangover following this six-month awards season finally takes hold Monday morning.

In the midst of Oscar week, indigenous women, environmental activists and fashion changemakers were the stars of the show at Thursday night’s Green Carpet Fashion Awards (Gcfa), which was held for the first time in Los Angeles at NeueHouse Hollywood.
Led by Livia Giuggioli Firth (who re-wore a vintage black Alexander McQueen dress), founder of the Italy-based sustainability and communications consultancy Eco Age, the starry celebration honored environmental and social sustainability in fashion, entertainment and beyond.
Optimism was the driving force of the evening, starting with the vibrant LCD screen “carpet” displaying blooming botanical videos (designed by Stefan Beckman) that welcomed guests. (Gcfa’s new West Coast location narrowly missed the downpour that has dampened L.A. in recent weeks.)

Baz Luhrmann says it would be “an amazing historical moment” if Elvis cinematographer Mandy Walker were to triumph at Sunday’s Academy Awards. To quote Lizzo, “It’s been too long,” the filmmaker tells me last night at the Australian Oscar nominees soirée held in the Chateau Marmont’s penthouse suite.
The Elvis director reasons that a woman hasn’t won an Oscar for best cinematographer thus far because “the camera unit is just the last bastion of blokeyness and probably comes down to who do you want to have a beer with.”

In many respects, Mick Jagger is the quintessential rock star. As the lead vocalist of the Rolling Stones, Jagger is the frontman for one of the most iconic rock bands of all time. And his status as a pop culture icon – and famous lothario – has only expanded from there. But one biographer made a bold claim about Jagger’s love life that might shock even the most devoted fans.

The daughter of Mick Jagger and Jerry Hall has been in some financial distress with her skincare company Catfish Soup.
The company was incorporated in 2017, but doesn’t have a product yet and is current sitting at over £350,000 in debt according to the “Net current liabilities” line of her publicly-filed account statement.
This report was filed late last month and accounts for 2021 expenses.
Georgia must be continuing to pump her inheritance, or income from her modeling career, into the company.
One note filed under “Going Concern” in her account reads, “the director is satisfied that she can continue to support the company until the development of the product is completed and the company starts to make sufficient profits from product sales to enable it to meet its liabilities without the director’s support.”
Jagger is still listed as the sole employee of Catfish Soup, so employee salaries aren’t to blame for these growing debts.

One note filed under “Going Concern” in her account reads, “the director is satisfied that she can continue to support the company until the development of the product is completed and the company starts to make sufficient profits from product sales to enable it to meet its liabilities without the director’s support.”
Jagger is still listed as the sole employee of Catfish Soup, so employee salaries aren’t to blame for these growing debts.

Luis Felber’s life changed in January 2021 when a mutual friend set him up on a blind date with Lena Dunham. The Winchester, U.K.-born son of a North London Jewish businessman father and Peruvian painter mom, Felber was at first hesitant, having been in lockdown for most of the year, writing love songs on his iPhone for his group Atttawalpa.
“I wasn’t in a place where I was looking for love,” the 36-year-old musician explains, revealing he’d never seen an episode of “Girls,” though his mom and sister were big fans. “Covid wasn’t exactly the sexiest time to meet someone. We texted for two days before we hung out. We’re not one-word types… we throw our emotions at the phone and our fingertips

Georgia May Jagger, who is the very stylish product of Rolling Stones frontman Mick Jagger and iconic model Jerry Hall, spent time with friends on Monday at the beach.
The fashionista is a model herself, having walked in runway shows for the likes of Tommy Hilfiger, Balmain, Vivienne Westwood, Alexander Wang, Miu Miu, Sonia Rykiel, Thierry Mugler, Marchesa, Versace, Fendi, and many more.
Georgia enjoyed some fun in the sun as she sat on the beach with 3 friends who looked so effortlessly stylish and cool.
The model was seen sitting in the middle of the black and white shot with her hair parted in the middle in beach waves, wearing a very skimpy bikini.
Though it was at an undisclosed location, knowing Georgia, it was most likely somewhere super chic...

In one of the few showbusiness divorces to be of real interest to readers of the world’s business pages and no doubt even more to his children, Rupert Murdoch has finalised the financial details of his split from Jerry Hall.
In a joint statement issued by the former couple, Murdoch and Hall announced that legal proceedings had been aborted, and financial arrangements settled out of court.
Following the end of their six-year marriage – Murdoch’s fourth – Hall is expected to receive a multi-million-pound settlement, as well as the couple’s £11m Oxfordshire mansion, Holmwood House. She is also expected to receive a villa in the south of France.
This will not leave Murdoch empty handed. The 91-year-old media mogul will retain possession of his New York penthouse apartment, as well as his house in London’s Mayfair and the jewel in his property crown, his Moraga Estate vineyard in Bel-Air.

Sun Valley, Idaho — The Elon Musk watch is on.
The first full day of Allen & Co.’s exclusive conference and retreat for the wealthy and well-connected concluded Wednesday at the luxe Sun Valley resort. Even among the assembled 1-ers, there was anticipation for the arrival of the maverick leader of Tesla and SpaceX, who is expected to make an appearance at the annual meeting of moguls and C-suite titans.
Following Tuesday’s many arrivals and some solo morning time, during which Verizon chief Hans Vestberg went for a run around the resort in the 6 a.m. hour, the agenda kicked off with an outdoor breakfast held for the business, media and tech moguls and their guests in a shaded area behind the lodge.
After the catered affair, the day was filled with private meetings and well-guarded guest speaker sessions, which usually focus on heady global economic and public policy topics.

Sun Valley, Idaho — Rupert Murdoch will attend Allen & Co.’s Sun Valley conference this week, Variety has confirmed.
The annual event colloquially known as “summer camp for billionaires” kicks off as usual on July 5 at the Sun Valley Lodge in the titular Idaho resort town. Murdoch, 91, arrived on site during the July 4th holiday on Monday, according to a source familiar with the matter, two days after the Fox Corp. and News Corp. baron attended granddaughter Charlotte Freud’s wedding to rapper Lukey Storey in the U.K.
Murdoch’s decision to come to the Sun Valley retreat — an event he has attend numerous times over the years — is an interesting surprise, as his name was not among those on the list of invite-only Sun Valley guests obtained by Variety last month.
However, Murdoch’s sons James Murdoch, CEO of Lupa Systems, and Lachlan Murdoch, the current CEO of Fox Corp.

Spoiler Alert: Do not read ahead if you have not watched Season 7, Episode 4, of “The Masked Singer,” “Masking For It — The Good, the Bad and the Cuddly — Round 2,” which aired March 30 on Fox.
It was a brief, but eventful, tenure on “The Masked Singer” for supermodel Christie Brinkley, who was revealed on this week’s episode as the Lemur. According to Brinkley, she was ill the actual day of the performance on the show.
“I had a real bout of food poisoning the night before,” she told Variety. “And so I was running on empty that morning.”
Brinkley was the first celebrity to depart during Round 2 of Season 7, which means she only got to perform one song on the show: “I Feel the Earth Move,” by Carole King.
But according to Brinkley, that wasn’t the original plan: She was set to sing “Dream a Little Dream,” “with a really cute choreography and everything,...

Executive producer Ryan Murphy takes Andy Warhol enthusiasts and neophytes alike into a melancholy immersion of the man’s life and work — using his own words and voice reconstructed with artificial intelligence — in “The Andy Warhol Diaries.” Directed by Andrew Rossi (“Page One: A Year Inside the New York Times” and “The First Monday in May”), the six-part documentary series debuts March 9. Watch the official trailer below.
While Warhol was seemingly scrupulous about keeping his private life private — often flippantly telling journalists he was “asexual” — there’s plenty beneath the surface of his groundbreaking 20th-century art to suggest otherwise. That’s one of the achievements of “The Andy Warhol Diaries,” which melds talking-head testimonies from those who knew him with impressionistic montages of his work and archival snippets from his New York scene at the Factory. There’s plenty of the salacious here, from Warhol’s brushes with drugs, his...
