This summer, music legend Mariah Carey is set to light up the stage at Brighton Pride, marking her first UK performance since her 2019 Royal Albert Hall shows. Scheduled for August 2, 2025, at Preston Park, Carey’s highly anticipated appearance follows the cancellation of the 2020 event due to COVID-19. Known for her chart-topping hits like "Fantasy" and "Always Be My Baby," her performance is expected to draw massive crowds. Tickets go on sale February 20, and demand is expected to be high.

Paul Kemp, Brighton Pride’s Managing Director, shared his excitement, recalling the disappointment of 2020. “We’re thrilled to finally welcome Mariah this year,” Kemp said. “Pride is a celebration of love, diversity, and unity, and having a global icon like her headline makes this year’s event even more special.”


Brighton Pride, one of the UK’s largest LGBTQ+ festivals, attracts around 300,000 attendees annually. The event has a history of star-studded performances, with past headliners including Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera, and the Black Eyed Peas. Carey’s performance will kick off the Pride on the Park event, with more acts set to be announced for the two-day festival.

In a social media announcement, Carey shared her enthusiasm, saying, “I can’t wait to see all your beautiful faces at Pride on the Park 2025. It’s going to be unforgettable.” Her set promises to be a spectacular moment merging her timeless hits with the vibrant energy of Pride.

The festival will also feature the annual LGBTQ+ Community Parade, themed "Ravishing Rage," celebrating resilience and unity. Kemp added, “This year’s Pride will be a powerful reminder of our community’s strength and spirit. We’re turning adversity into triumph, and Mariah’s presence will make it truly magical.”

With Carey’s star power and the festival’s message of inclusivity, Brighton Pride 2025 is gearing up to be a landmark event. Fans and festival-goers alike are eagerly counting down to what promises to be a special celebration of music, love, and pride.

Ibrahim Ali Khan’s fiery DM to Pakistani critic over ‘Nadaaniyan’ sparks social media uproar

Ibrahim Ali Khan has found himself at the centre of an online storm following his message to Pakistani film critic Tamur Iqbal. The critic had shared his blunt review of Ibrahim’s debut film Nadaaniyan, mocking not only the film but also taking a personal swipe at Ibrahim’s appearance. What followed was an angry message from the young actor that has since gone viral.

Tamur Iqbal had posted a story on Instagram, criticising Nadaaniyan for its performances and taking a dig at Ibrahim’s “huge nose.” While harsh reviews are common in the world of cinema, Ibrahim’s alleged reaction caught many by surprise. In a screenshot Tamur later shared publicly, Ibrahim appears to lash out, calling the critic “an ugly piece of trash” and threatening to “leave you uglier” if they crossed paths in person.

Millie Bobby Brown and the rise of cinema’s first ‘stream queen’ with 'The Electric State'

At just 21 years old, Millie Bobby Brown has already secured her place as a prominent figure in the entertainment industry. The star of Stranger Things, who first captivated audiences with her portrayal of Eleven, now finds herself at the forefront of Netflix’s most high-profile projects. However, her latest role in The Electric State, a mindbogglingly expensive Netflix sci-fi film, has sparked mixed reactions and raised questions about her trajectory as a ‘Stream Queen’ – a title that comes with both acclaim and criticism.

The Electric State, in which Brown stars alongside Chris Pratt, has not been warmly received by critics. Described by The Independent's Clarisse Loughrey as “punishingly obvious and completely incoherent,” the film’s one-star reviews have been echoed by many others. The movie, which centres around two hollow characters moving aimlessly through a barren plot, seems to be yet another forgettable venture in Brown’s recent streak of Netflix productions.
