Grace Kellyová (12. listopadu 1929 – 14. září 1982) byla filmová ikona, jež stihla prožít pod dohledem veřejnosti dva životy: ten kratší patřil úspěšné hollywoodské herečce, ten delší monacké kněžně. Oba obestírá romantický opar dokonalosti. Neprávem: neobešly se totiž bez kontroverze, pragmatičnosti i obyčejného lidského zoufalství.

Německému kancléři Olafu Scholzovi selhala zdržovací taktika. Po rozpadu vlády počítal s vypsáním předčasných voleb v březnu příštího roku. S tímto plánem narazil, volby proběhnou už 23. února. Opoziční favorit na kancléře Friedrich Merz prosazuje silnější podporu Ukrajiny. 

Před 50 lety zavraždil ve městě Amityville třiadvacetiletý Ronald DeFeo celou svou rodinu. Motivy zločinu jsou dodnes neznámé a celý příběh je opředen mnoha nevyjasněnými okolnostmi. Není proto divu, že lidoví vypravěči a filmoví scénáristé začali vinu svalovat na démony. Strašidelné filmy o posedlém domu v Amityville nejsou bohužel jedinou hororovou sérií inspirovanou skutečnými událostmi.

Slovenský premiér Robert Fico minulý týden navštívil Čínu. Dle novináře Arpáda Soltésze směřuje Slovensko k opakování čínského scénáře v Maďarsku. "Má obrovský infrastrukturní dluh, nemáme dálnici do Košic, rozpadá se železnice. Pro Číňany nebude problém to zaplatit," říká Soltész v podcastu Padni komu padni.

Elon Musk proměnil sociální síť X ve svoji osobní zbraň a využil ji způsobem, jejž málokdo očekával.  Zatímco si příznivci Demokratické strany stěžovali na pravicovou propagandu, Musk se věnoval sázkařským trhům.

Pro hromadné násilí proti Izraelcům v holandském Amsterdamu jen proto, že jsou Židé, se vžilo slovo „pogrom“. I když je původem z ruštiny, dobře vystihuje smysl události – je to pokus o genocidu v malém. Jak známo, v kapce mořské vody je vždy přítomen celý oceán se všemi jeho příznaky a kvalitami. Leč ve většině znaleckých posudků k amsterdamskému pogromu se zračí snaha nepochopit, nebo za každou cenu pokřivit jeho niterný původ a význam.

Voyo a Televize Nova uvedly novou seznamovací reality show Bachelor. Jeden muž si mezi osmnácti „soutěžícími“ hledá na řeckém ostrově partnerku. „Cením, že máme první sérii českého Bachelora a český Honza v něm hledá nevěstu. Jako kdyby to psala Božena Němcová,“ říká Martin Bartkovský v podcastu Poprask. S Šimonem Holým a Hankou Trojánkovou Biriczovou navštívili premiéru Bachelora. Jak se jim první díl líbí?

Piráti mají za sebou zásadní sjezd, na kterém si zvolili jako předsedu bývalého primátora Prahy Zdeňka Hřiba. Nahradí tak ve vedení strany jejího dlouholetého předsedu Ivana Bartoše, který byl na sjezdu za potlesku všech přítomných slavnostně digitalizován.

Kdykoli to někdo v uplynulých měsících řekl nahlas, znělo to jako vtip. Mike Tyson, světová boxerská legenda, která byla v ringu naposledy v roce 2005, bude v osmapadesáti letech znovu zápasit. Železný boxer v důchodu neodolal lákavé nabídce hubatého sedmadvacetiletého influencera Jakea Paula, který se pokořením legendy chce vydat na cestu profesionálního šampiona boxu. Serióznosti akce navíc moc nepřidalo, že byla v červnu odsunuta z původního termínu. Nyní je ale všechno jinak. Oba bojovníci zveřejnili svá tréninková videa, ve kterých dřou jako koně. Proběhly mediální tréninky i tiskové konference. Do Texasu míří na boxerský galavečer sto tisíc lidí a na Netflixu, který to bude pro své předplatitele streamovat živě, se jej chystá zhlédnout sto milionů diváků. Díky pozvání Netflixu jsem v texaském Arlingtonu osobně a na webu reflex.cz vám přinesu postřehy z této monstr akce.

Je to zvláštní přelom roku. V září bylo 35 let mně. V listopadu je 35 let tuzemské demokracii. A v dubnu bude 35 let Reflexu. O sobě mluvit nechci, ty druhé dvě další věci jsou důležitější a jako stejně starý člověk si je dovolím hodnotit. I když se to tak ve vašem okolí nemusí zdát, současný politický sy­stém je stále to nejlepší, co dokázalo lidstvo vymyslet. A časopis Reflex má pořád co říct.

V dnešní době navštíví nejproslulejší náměstí New Yorku přes 130 milionů turistů ročně. Stojí tu obří obchod s cukrovinkami M&M's i konkurenční Hershey's. Před třiceti lety se ale na Times Square odvážili jen ti nejotrlejší. Každoročně zde docházelo ke zhruba 2500 zločinů a místo turistů tu vládly prostitutky.
