Jag Bains, an entrepreneur and truck company owner from Washington, created history by becoming the first Sikh-American to win the reality show Big Brother.

The 25-year-old TV personality defeated Matt Klotz, a professional swimmer, and DJ Bowie Jane to take the top spot at the 100-day-long season.

Bains was the first Sikh-American to enter the Big Brother house in the US and is now the first Sikh-American houseguest to win the US version of the international reality series in its 25th season.

Big Brother announced the results of the finale on its official handle on microblogging site X. Bains will be taking home a prize money of USD 750,000.

"And that’s our season!! Congrats and thank you to our #BB25 houseguests!" read the tweet.

"To be able to win this with integrity and loyalty the whole time is exactly what I wanted to do," Bains told host Julie Chen-Moonves at the end of the episode.

Bains is now the third straight winner to make history on the US version of Big Brother.

In 2021, Xavier Prather became the first Black individual to win the game, while last year Taylor Hale was announced as the first Black woman to win.

Big Brother season 25 aired in the US on CBS.

Priyanka Chopra becomes India's highest-paid actress with £2.7M paycheck, beating Deepika & Alia!

Priyanka Chopra has once again rewritten the rules of the Indian film industry. Despite not starring in an Indian movie for six years, she has now become the highest-paid actress in the country. According to reports, she is charging £2.7 million (₹30 crore) for her upcoming film with SS Rajamouli and Mahesh Babu. This puts her ahead of Bollywood’s top stars like Deepika Padukone, Alia Bhatt, and Kareena Kapoor.

Actor salaries in Indian cinema have always been a topic of speculation, but Priyanka’s latest paycheck has confirmed a major shift. Traditionally, male actors dominate the highest-paid list, with stars like Salman Khan and Shah Rukh Khan earning £9 million (₹100 crore) per film. However, Priyanka’s new deal shows that female actors are closing the gap.

Ellen DeGeneres has officially wrapped up another chapter of her life in the United States, selling one of her last remaining homes in California.

The couple originally purchased the mid-century modern home in 2021 for $2.9 million, making a significant profit in the sale. Located near Butterfly Beach, the 1,691-square-foot house features spa-like bathrooms, an enclosed patio, and a lush courtyard designed for privacy and relaxation.

Abhishek Bachchan says Aishwarya Rai’s ‘I want to talk’ call stresses him, fans are in splits!

At the Showsha Reel Awards 2025, Abhishek Bachchan bagged the Best Actor award for his gripping performance in I Want to Talk, helmed by Shoojit Sircar. While his win was a significant milestone in his career, it was a light-hearted exchange with Arjun Kapoor that became the talk of the town.

During the event, Arjun Kapoor, who was hosting a segment, decided to throw a cheeky question Abhishek’s way. “Who is that one person whose ‘I want to talk’ call stresses you out?” he asked, referencing the film’s title in a humorous twist. Without missing a beat, Abhishek responded with a knowing smile, “Tumhari shaadi nahi hui hai na abhi tak… jab ho jaayegi, you’ll have an answer for that.” (You’re not married yet… once you are, you’ll know the answer.)
