This article reports on the passing of renowned British actress Joan Plowright, the absence of former First Lady Michelle Obama from President Trump's inauguration, and the ongoing devastation caused by wildfires in California.
The British actress Joan Plowright , known for her roles in theater, film, and television, passed away at age 95. Plowright was married to the legendary Laurence Olivier for 28 years and enjoyed a long and successful career, earning a Tony Award, two Golden Globes, and nominations for both an Oscar and an Emmy. She retired from acting in 2014 due to legal blindness. Plowright's death was announced by her family, who praised her illustrious career and kind nature.
Meanwhile, news outlets are reporting that former first lady Michelle Obama will not be attending President Donald Trump's second inauguration. Sources close to the inauguration planning team stated that they didn't expect Obama to attend and are treating her absence with humor. This follows a trend of former first ladies not attending the inaugurations of presidents who were not their husbands. Notably, Donald Trump and Melania Trump did not attend President Joe Biden's inauguration, and this absence received little to no public attention.In other news, the devastating wildfires that have ravaged Los Angeles have claimed the lives of at least 27 people, displaced thousands of residents, and caused billions of dollars in damage. The cause of the fires remains unknown, but firefighters are facing challenges due to lithium batteries in electric vehicles, which burn longer and release harmful toxins. Apple is also facing scrutiny over its controversial AI-powered news summarization feature, which has been criticized for altering news headlines in a way that can distort information. The company has promised improvements and plans to release them in a future software update.
