“Hi it’s Leo, what does it say?”
This Wednesday, October 16, after Ozempic, will a new appetite suppressant be coveted by influencers? France will do everything to avoid it after having authorized the marketing of the drug Wegovy. This anti-obesity drug uses the same molecule as the anti-diabetic drug Ozempic, also manufactured by the same Danish laboratory Novo Nordisk. It represents real hope for the more than 8 million obese French people and a gigantic market.
Judoka bronze medalist at the Paris 2024 Olympic Games Amandine Buchard is embarking on an immense challenge. She wants to participate again in the Los Angeles 2028 Games… in judo, but also in rugby 7! The 29-year-old from Martinique has just signed for the Stade Français omnisport.
And then a certain Ryan Nicholson is starring in “Smile 2”, which is released in theaters this Wednesday. On one of the posters for the horror film, the resemblance is striking with his father Jack Nicholson, and especially with his terrifying smile in “The Shining”. The first opus of “Smile”, which depicts suicides of people contaminated by evil smiles, created a surprise by exceeding $200 million in revenue in 2022.
