Difficult decision for many Iranians today – whether to support Iran v NZ

When Iran's national football team walks onto American soil this summer for the 2026 FIFA World Cup, it will do so against the backdrop of an Iranian government crackdown against protesters in January, an ongoing war launched by the US and Israel in February, and a four-month digital blackout affecting some 92 million people. It has left many Iranian fans feeling conflicted about who exactly they'll be cheering for.

By Shirvin Zeinalzadeh for The Conversation

Even before a ball has been kicked, the tension has been clear among not only supporters but team members, too. Iranian players were issued visas to the United States at the 11th hour, and the team only arrived at their training base in Tijuana, Mexico, days before the tournament kicks off.

That came after a request to move their camp from Arizona, citing concerns over unfair treatment on US soil, a move that required the formal endorsement of FIFA before it could proceed. Even with the team finally getting settled, however, multiple Iranian football fans have been denied visas to the US Iran's football association has also said its ticket allocation had been denied, leaving fans who had made the trek disappointed.

With a host nation actively at war with a competing one for the first time in World Cup history, the pitch will be a stage not just for football but for grief, resistance and competing nationalism.

The Iranian diaspora, buffeted by the one-two punch of internal crackdowns and external interventions, now faces a deeply unsettling question: How do you express pride in one's national team without tacitly supporting the government that it represents?

Diasporic identity crises

Along with many Iranians, mainly expatriates in the US, I plan to attend Iran's opening game against New Zealand today in Los Angeles. The location is important – Los Angeles is a city that is home to the largest Iranian diaspora, so much so that it is often referred to as “Tehrangeles†within the community.

It is also a community among whom feelings toward the Islamic Republic run deep, with many of them having left Iran during or following the Iranian Revolution of 1979. Many in the community have remained loyal to the deposed Pahlavi regime and the crown prince, Reza, and going so far as celebrating the joint US-Israeli led war on Iran.

It is in this community that the Iranian national team – colloquially known as Team Melli to reflect the Farsi word for national – will face battle not only against New Zealand, but also the conflicted emotions of its ethnic brethren.

With the memory of the January protests still raw, calls have been circulating among some Iranian Americans to formally protest and boycott the occasion. Proposals range from purchasing tickets, only to leave seats conspicuously empty, to booing the national anthem and withholding any celebration of Iranian goals.

Supporters have also been urged within Iranian American communities to resist FIFA's attempts to prohibit non-Islamic Republic flags inside stadiums, with some Iranian expats suggesting on social media of spray-painting over the symbols on the current flag, carrying plain green, white and red alternatives into the ground, or wearing clothing bearing political slogans. Others have proposed exposing politically motivated tattoos or using stuffed animals to caricature Iranian leaders.

In return, Mehdi Taj, the president of the Iranian Football Association, issued a statement demanding respect, stating: “We need a guarantee there, for our trip, that they have no right to insult the symbols of our system, especially the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps.â€

There is a broader question that Iran's World Cup appearance forces into view, and it sits uncomfortably alongside FIFA's own record. While the governing body of world football awarded President Donald Trump its inaugural Peace Prize ahead of the tournament, it is now looking the other way as the US remains at war and denies visas to would-be participants and spectators.

The collision of sport and statecraft is nothing new, from the 1936 Berlin Olympics to the Soviet boycott of Los Angeles in 1984. But it has rarely been managed with such apparent indifference to its own contradictions.

When sport becomes a theatre for competing political claims, it is the integrity of the game itself that is diminished. One is entitled to ask whether the notion of sport existing purely on its own terms — especially on the global stage — has ever been anything more than a convenient fiction.

Collision of politics and sport

Yet here lies the puzzle. Football occupies a place in Iranian life that borders on the sacred. One need only look to the fierce devotion surrounding Tehran's great rival teams Persepolis and Esteghlal, a contest that ranks among the most intense club rivalries in world football, or to the scenes of street celebration that have swept Iran whenever the national team has won games at previous World Cups.

The memory of defeating the US at the 1998 World Cup in France and the rematch in 2022 speaks to how deeply the game is woven into the fabric of Iranian culture. Supporting Team Melli has long been a source of collective pride, a point of unity that transcends politics and generation, regardless of religion, political views and social class. This creates the dilemma for the fans watching in Los Angeles and Seattle for Iran's three group games.

In Arizona, where I teach global politics at Arizona State University, several members of the Iranian diaspora articulated this dilemma to me, capturing the tension at the heart of current events.

One person invoked the sporting rivalries of the Cold War as a reminder of football's capacity to transcend conflict, yet acknowledged that the wounds of the January protests remained too raw for many in the diaspora to set aside. Another was more straightforwardly hopeful, expressing a wish to see Iran progress in the tournament and a belief that success on the pitch might, however tentatively, cut across political divisions.

Yet for those who have watched the events of recent years with grief and fury, cheering on a team that represents the Islamic Republic feels, to some, like an act of complicity. For its part, the Iranian government – as well as some Iranian critics – would argue that the national team stands apart from politics entirely.

From this vantage point, football is a matter of national identity and cultural heritage that belongs to all Iranians regardless of their views on those in power. It is, moreover, a moment of proud participation, according to one Iranian official, and that to deny the players their support is to punish athletes for the decisions of politicians.

The protests that shook Iran, and the complex political landscape that followed, have left the diaspora navigating questions that go far beyond football.

The Islamic Republic, whatever one's view of its conduct, remains the sovereign government of a nation with a rich and fiercely proud culture, and the players on the pitch represent that culture as much as they represent the state.

That they do so on the soil of a country with which Iran is actively at war renders this perhaps the most politically charged sporting occasion in living memory – one in which every goal, every flag and every empty seat carries a meaning that extends well beyond the 90 minutes. In that sense, the World Cup has not created a division so much as it has given an existing one a global stage.

The deal likely returns to a status that existed before the war, but with thousands of people dead and Iran wielding a new source of negotiating pressure with its ability to influence transits of the strait. The waterway is crucial to significant shipments of oil, natural gas and related products like fertiliser, and its effective closure rocked the global economy.

Of the stated targets by the US and Israel when they launched the war on February 28 with strikes that killed Iran’s supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, Tehran still has a missile programme, support for armed proxies in the region like Hezbollah and a stockpile of highly enriched uranium for its nuclear programme.

The emerging deal had been sharply criticised by Israel’s government and by critics in Trump’s own Republican Party. Some said it did not improve on the terms of the 2015 Iran nuclear deal that Trump withdrew the US from during his first term and still describes as “bad”.

There was also apparent friction inside Iran in the hours before the announcement, as the government earlier Sunday warned that any division at home over the deal weakens its negotiating position.

After the war began, Iran attacked Israel and several Arab Gulf nations with missiles and drones. A ceasefire was reached on April 7. Ten days later, the US military imposed its blockade. A historic face-to-face meeting between Vice President JD Vance and Iranian parliament speaker Mohammad Bagher Qalibaf ended without success.

Iran has 440.9kg of uranium that is enriched up to 60% purity, a short, technical step from weapons-grade levels of 90%, according to the International Atomic Energy Agency.

“,”type”:”text”},{“_id”:”R37TOYJVKRA4RHIAYYQRDCBHEY”,”content”:”

Iran has long maintained its nuclear programme is peaceful and has not publicly committed to giving up the enriched uranium, which is believed to be buried under three nuclear sites that were badly damaged by US strikes last year.

“,”type”:”text”},{“_id”:”B7HIBK5ZFZGKVMQC2I753AFFIU”,”content”:”

At times, the US had sought the removal of the enriched uranium from Iran as part of a deal. Russia has offered to take it. At other times, Trump said he wanted the uranium destroyed.

Giuliani said during an interview broadcast on CBS News that some of the Iranian team's support staff and team officials were denied entry into the US. But he said that all the players and coaches had received visas. He also outlined the conditions by which the Iranian team would be able to come into the US for their games.

“The team will be allowed to come in, match day minus one, so the day before the match. They'll be asked to leave the day that the match wraps up, so the evening of the match. And they'll be able to do that again in Los Angeles. They'll be able to do it again in Seattle,†Giuliani said.

When asked about why some support staff and team officials had been denied entry, Giuliani wouldn't go into details but referred to previous comments made by Secretary of State Marco Rubio about denying entry to people with direct ties to Iran's Revolutionary Guard.

South Korea's preparations for their upcoming World Cup match against Mexico have been overshadowed by a rift between the players and the country’s media following disparaging comments about captain Son Heung-min.

“},{“_id”:”TFO3VTKQA5ATNCDZYFFQW2EBEE”,”type”:”text”,”content”:”

The spat reportedly led to the resignation of one of the team's media officers on Wednesday. The national team has yet to confirm the resignation, which has been reported by some of the media covering the South Korean squad in Guadalajara.

Access for the media had apparently been cut off after the comments against Son were caught on camera. Players reportedly refrained from speaking to South Korean media outside official World Cup commitments, and scheduled interviews with players were cancelled.

“},{“_id”:”XL7UCH22ONC23FPO34XQP6EDJQ”,”type”:”text”,”content”:”

Mexican media said there was a meeting between the team’s media officers and the South Korean media to discuss the incident.

There was no media access scheduled today. The pre-match news conference is scheduled for tomorrow.

Kylian Mbappé scored twice to move past Pelé and Lionel Messi with 14 World Cup goals, Bradley Barcola added another, and France rebounded from a surprisingly poor first half to beat Senegal 3-1.

Mbappé had 14 touches in the scoreless first half, the fewest of any player, then showed his brilliance when he put Les Bleus ahead in the 66th minute.

After Jules Kounde and Michael Olise twice exchanged passes on the right flank, Olise made a diagonal pass as Mbappé burst past Senegal captain Kalidou Koulibaly.

“},{“_id”:”YJ5WLB3LZVGNXOOYNLJ6JSQA5I”,”type”:”text”,”content”:”

Mbappé turned onto the ball just outside the 6-yard box and slid it past Édouard Mendy and inside the far post.

More than 400 live felines and around 80 dead cats preserved on ice were discovered during a raid at Trúc Quỳnh vehicle depot in Mỹ Hạnh Commune, Tây Ninh Province. A further 21 cats were found at another facility in Linh Xuân Ward in Ho Chi Minh City.

The interim deal between the US and Iran is supposed to usher in a two-month period that would address the most divisive issue between the longtime adversaries — Tehran’s nuclear programme.

“},{“_id”:”SI53LFS6HVAGHIGLP4WQDLR73I”,”type”:”text”,”content”:”

Preventing Iran from attaining a nuclear bomb is a key reason that US President Donald Trump said he launched the war alongside Israel in February, but the tentative agreement he has trumpeted leaves little runway to negotiate the long-running sticking point. The previous nuclear pact between Iran and world powers, which Trump pulled the US from in his first term, took many months to negotiate.

“},{“_id”:”5JAXOW4ONBBJBE4G5AG5XPKLUQ”,”type”:”text”,”content”:”

Few details have been publicly released about the initial deal, set to be officially signed Saturday in Switzerland, but it generally calls for reopening the Strait of Hormuz to global oil shipments, financial incentives for Iran if it meets certain benchmarks, and a 60-day period for talks on ending the country’s nuclear programme.

“},{“_id”:”ETY76EA54RA75EYAL74PLZMMUY”,”type”:”text”,”content”:”

There is deep scepticism among both Republican and Democratic lawmakers, pro-Israel advocates and Israel itself that the deal is realistic, workable or would have any effect on nuclear talks.

“},{“_id”:”6TBHKNTSX5AVTFRPRCJMRDVETM”,”type”:”text”,”content”:”

“My scepticism is Iran itself. What would a good deal look like? No enrichment. And we'll see if we can get there,” Republican Senator Lindsey Graham of South Carolina, a close Trump ally and longtime Iran hawk, said Wednesday. “But whether or not we can get phase two, I don't know.”

“This is the kind of thing that requires dogged attention, attention to detail and numerous technical experts involved,” he said. “Trump loses his attention, moves on, and so does the administration.

The 2015 Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action, or JCPOA, took more than 18 months to negotiate, starting with secret talks between US and Iranian officials in Oman at the end of then-President Barack Obama's first term.

Trump withdrew from the JCPOA in 2018 before most of its more contentious concessions had come into effect, and there is no indication now that Iran is willing to offer much more.

“},{“_id”:”QZMDUT6HSBDTLDHUGXFX4GX7GM”,”type”:”text”,”content”:”

The JCPOA relied on very technical language and understandings, including limits on uranium enrichment, advanced centrifuges and heavy water production. In exchange, Iran was granted significant sanctions relief, amounting to billions of dollars.

As unhappy as critics were about the JCPOA — Trump called it the “worst deal ever negotiated”, while all Republicans and a number of prominent Democrats voted against it — all sides acknowledge it took more than 18 months to get to an even imperfect agreement.

Republicans say any nuclear deal with Iran should be brought to Congress, as required by law. GOP Senator Ted Cruz of Texas said he “would certainly anticipate that” the Senate will get the final say.

“},{“_id”:”BRK3WJE4V5ADVKNJRBNQPTZU6M”,”type”:”text”,”content”:”

GOP Senator John Kennedy of Louisiana said he had little confidence Iran would abide by any agreement.

“},{“_id”:”JRBLE5WRFVHIVHOP7UMRHNSLFU”,”type”:”text”,”content”:”

But Senator Roger Marshall, R-Kan., one of a handful of senators who has spoken to Vance about the agreement, said the shortened timeline could be an advantage.

“},{“_id”:”NJ5FBAPYOVGXJKSI2UTXFFWCXY”,”type”:”text”,”content”:”

“Iran's modus operandi is to negotiate for the purpose of delaying, so they can rearm themselves,” Marshall said. “I think the president has to give them some type of a finite amount of time, or there's going to be consequences. So I think it can be done.”

“},{“_id”:”WFATMLXNF5H75ENAWC2WH2JJVA”,”type”:”text”,”content”:”

Senator Tim Kaine, D-Va., noted that what could help Trump's negotiators to hammer out a nuclear agreement in such a truncated timeline is that there is “a base” to work from following the Obama-era talks.

“},{“_id”:”UH43JL5GLFA5HEDYHXGQZNJ3DU”,”type”:”text”,”content”:”

Still, the JCPOA “took years to put together. You had allies and even adversaries — China and Russia — around the table, you had the IAEA at the table, the Obama chief negotiator had a Nobel Prize in physics, Ernie Moniz,” Kaine said. “I don't know that either Jared Kushner or Steve Witkoff have a Nobel Prize. So it's going to be hard.”

“},{“_id”:”WK7VY2MLVBDQ3BQH354WWUVBRI”,”type”:”text”,”content”:”

Trump envoys Witkoff and Kushner, neither of whom had any prior experience in nuclear negotiations, made numerous but ultimately unsuccessful attempts to reach an agreement under Omani mediation during the first months of Trump's second term.

“},{“_id”:”ICPV6DWEB5GWZFPO45TN5Z34ZU”,”type”:”text”,”content”:”

Those tapered off after the US-Israel attacks on Iranian nuclear sites in June 2025 — after which Pakistan emerged as the main facilitator.

There also is uncertainty about other issues besides nuclear that have been of concern to Arab countries, Israel, Europe and the United States.

“},{“_id”:”RXLQL2R32ZDBRGFNHPFGYUNW3Y”,”type”:”text”,”content”:”

It is not clear that any of those issues, including Iran's ballistic missile programme, its support for militant proxies in the region or repression of its own people, will be addressed by either the interim or potential longer-term agreements.

“},{“_id”:”J55PUCRDKBBKHCMHWI7GM6VAQA”,”type”:”text”,”content”:”

Without significant capitulations by Trump up-front, it is hard to imagine that nuclear negotiations with Iran will take only several months.

“},{“_id”:”LVTAEJVFAJF5XCDAVUGPGX37OY”,”type”:”text”,”content”:”

“A deal is better than more fighting, but the war America and Israel prosecuted against Iran has fallen short of achieving its stated objectives,” said Brian Katulis, a senior fellow at the Middle East Institute. “This agreement is mostly about cleaning up an unnecessary mess and putting the best face on it.”

The interim deal between the US and Iran is supposed to usher in a two-month period that would address the most divisive issue between the longtime adversaries — Tehran’s nuclear programme.

“,”type”:”text”},{“_id”:”SI53LFS6HVAGHIGLP4WQDLR73I”,”content”:”

Preventing Iran from attaining a nuclear bomb is a key reason that US President Donald Trump said he launched the war alongside Israel in February, but the tentative agreement he has trumpeted leaves little runway to negotiate the long-running sticking point. The previous nuclear pact between Iran and world powers, which Trump pulled the US from in his first term, took many months to negotiate.

“,”type”:”text”},{“_id”:”5JAXOW4ONBBJBE4G5AG5XPKLUQ”,”content”:”

Few details have been publicly released about the initial deal, set to be officially signed Saturday in Switzerland, but it generally calls for reopening the Strait of Hormuz to global oil shipments, financial incentives for Iran if it meets certain benchmarks, and a 60-day period for talks on ending the country’s nuclear programme.

“,”type”:”text”},{“_id”:”ETY76EA54RA75EYAL74PLZMMUY”,”content”:”

There is deep scepticism among both Republican and Democratic lawmakers, pro-Israel advocates and Israel itself that the deal is realistic, workable or would have any effect on nuclear talks.

“,”type”:”text”},{“_id”:”6TBHKNTSX5AVTFRPRCJMRDVETM”,”content”:”

“My scepticism is Iran itself. What would a good deal look like? No enrichment. And we'll see if we can get there,” Republican Senator Lindsey Graham of South Carolina, a close Trump ally and longtime Iran hawk, said Wednesday. “But whether or not we can get phase two, I don't know.”

Republicans say any nuclear deal with Iran should be brought to Congress, as required by law. GOP Senator Ted Cruz of Texas said he “would certainly anticipate that” the Senate will get the final say.

“,”type”:”text”},{“_id”:”BRK3WJE4V5ADVKNJRBNQPTZU6M”,”content”:”

GOP Senator John Kennedy of Louisiana said he had little confidence Iran would abide by any agreement.

“,”type”:”text”},{“_id”:”JRBLE5WRFVHIVHOP7UMRHNSLFU”,”content”:”

But Senator Roger Marshall, R-Kan., one of a handful of senators who has spoken to Vance about the agreement, said the shortened timeline could be an advantage.

“,”type”:”text”},{“_id”:”NJ5FBAPYOVGXJKSI2UTXFFWCXY”,”content”:”

“Iran's modus operandi is to negotiate for the purpose of delaying, so they can rearm themselves,” Marshall said. “I think the president has to give them some type of a finite amount of time, or there's going to be consequences. So I think it can be done.”

“,”type”:”text”},{“_id”:”WFATMLXNF5H75ENAWC2WH2JJVA”,”content”:”

Senator Tim Kaine, D-Va., noted that what could help Trump's negotiators to hammer out a nuclear agreement in such a truncated timeline is that there is “a base” to work from following the Obama-era talks.

“,”type”:”text”},{“_id”:”UH43JL5GLFA5HEDYHXGQZNJ3DU”,”content”:”

Still, the JCPOA “took years to put together. You had allies and even adversaries — China and Russia — around the table, you had the IAEA at the table, the Obama chief negotiator had a Nobel Prize in physics, Ernie Moniz,” Kaine said. “I don't know that either Jared Kushner or Steve Witkoff have a Nobel Prize. So it's going to be hard.”

“,”type”:”text”},{“_id”:”WK7VY2MLVBDQ3BQH354WWUVBRI”,”content”:”

Trump envoys Witkoff and Kushner, neither of whom had any prior experience in nuclear negotiations, made numerous but ultimately unsuccessful attempts to reach an agreement under Omani mediation during the first months of Trump's second term.

“,”type”:”text”},{“_id”:”ICPV6DWEB5GWZFPO45TN5Z34ZU”,”content”:”

Those tapered off after the US-Israel attacks on Iranian nuclear sites in June 2025 — after which Pakistan emerged as the main facilitator.

“,”type”:”text”},{“_id”:”ZQE6BFRZWVHSZKIG46ETCS3RQI”,”content”:”

There also is uncertainty about other issues besides nuclear that have been of concern to Arab countries, Israel, Europe and the United States.

“,”type”:”text”},{“_id”:”RXLQL2R32ZDBRGFNHPFGYUNW3Y”,”content”:”

It is not clear that any of those issues, including Iran's ballistic missile programme, its support for militant proxies in the region or repression of its own people, will be addressed by either the interim or potential longer-term agreements.

“,”type”:”text”},{“_id”:”J55PUCRDKBBKHCMHWI7GM6VAQA”,”content”:”

Without significant capitulations by Trump up-front, it is hard to imagine that nuclear negotiations with Iran will take only several months.

“,”type”:”text”},{“_id”:”LVTAEJVFAJF5XCDAVUGPGX37OY”,”content”:”

“A deal is better than more fighting, but the war America and Israel prosecuted against Iran has fallen short of achieving its stated objectives,” said Brian Katulis, a senior fellow at the Middle East Institute. “This agreement is mostly about cleaning up an unnecessary mess and putting the best face on it.”

Blake Lively can recover some legal costs from fellow actor and director Justin Baldoni but not punitive damages and other relief she sought after settling her legal claims over their 2024 film It Ends With Us, a judge ruled Friday.

“},{“_id”:”WDJJAI2O35FCTN4FQEQWS73FHA”,”type”:”text”,”content”:”

Judge Lewis J. Liman said in a written decision that Lively can recover legal fees and costs related to her defence against a countersuit Baldoni brought against her after she sued him in December 2024.

“},{“_id”:”CRDDZMOU7FELNEE2FEWEYQ4KRY”,”type”:”text”,”content”:”

In his written ruling Friday (local time), Liman cited a California law designed to protect survivors of sexual harassment and discrimination from retaliatory lawsuits meant to intimidate and silence victims.

“},{“_id”:”L3ZQ73AAKJCC7BPH5ABSZL7FRE”,”type”:”text”,”content”:”

The judge said the law requires that the plaintiff must pay the defendant's legal fees and costs if a defamation claim made in response to a lawsuit is dismissed, even if the facts of the case have not been developed through the gathering of evidence.

“},{“_id”:”FE2HDGTVYFCDNBTSQGFOIKRICE”,”type”:”text”,”content”:”

Liman said an exception would be if Baldoni and his production company, Wayfarer Studios LLC, could prove malice fuelled Lively’s claims, but that Baldoni and Wayfarer had produced no evidence to show that.

“},{“_id”:”VXFNMU7GS5FJHOVMEOXKB76TU4″,”type”:”text”,”content”:”

The judge rejected her claims to triple any damages and pursue punitive damages as well under the California law, saying that they did not fall within “carefully crafted federal procedural rules designed to protect the rights of the parties”.

“},{“_id”:”QPGK5F2PHRHUTFBIHEPKGKU6WI”,”type”:”text”,”content”:”

Lively and Baldoni settled the bulk of their dispute last month just as a trial was about to start on Lively’s retaliation claims. She received no money from the deal but was permitted to pursue legal fees.

“},{“_id”:”XBVM3YF6FBAXTFHP6VNVQMALVA”,”type”:”text”,”content”:”

In their statements, both sides cast Liman’s ruling as a victory.

“},{“_id”:”Q3IQIUJ35NARPMEN7I5QWYOWVA”,”type”:”text”,”content”:”

Lively lawyers Michael Gottlieb and Esra Hudson said the award of legal fees “makes it clear that Ms. Lively brought her claims in good faith, that there was no evidence she acted with malice, and that she is the prevailing defendant”.

“},{“_id”:”MUEM4RCVXZFI7DVS5JA4ZIOM2M”,”type”:”text”,”content”:”

Bryan Freedman, Baldoni’s lawyer, said Lively failed to get her demands for US$300 million (NZ$514 million) in fees and damages, with 10 or her 13 claims tossed out by the judge before the settlement was reached, and then “pivoted to exploit a California law” to get damages.

“},{“_id”:”DTK7RWPPNVGKDOFFDXUZD3SKOU”,”type”:”text”,”content”:”

“Once again, she failed,” he said, noting that she was entitled now to limited attorney fees for a single claim in a portion of the litigation that existed for only a few months.

“},{“_id”:”H4TIUDIM2NCKRAUKGDLSKBAQAE”,”type”:”text”,”content”:”

The lawyer said his clients were “threatened by one of the most famous movie stars, who tried to rip away their life's work and pristine reputations”.

“},{“_id”:”6XLOSWHLAJFLTK4B2ZEOIB3SBE”,”type”:”text”,”content”:”

“Throughout this process, innocent people had their reputations unfairly tarnished. There was no sexual harassment. There was no retaliation. There was no smear campaign. The court recognised it, the record reflects it, and we have maintained it from the very beginning,” Freedman said.

“},{“_id”:”AH2WX24PPBHOVKX6EI6QGILOOU”,”type”:”text”,”content”:”

Lively accused Baldoni of sexual harassment and retaliation, along with his production company, in late 2024. She said the actor engineered an effort to damage her public reputation and credibility.

“},{“_id”:”UHGRPWYSSZGD3L7GHXP4VCKNAI”,”type”:”text”,”content”:”

Baldoni, who directed the dark romantic drama and starred in it with Lively, denied harassing her or orchestrating a smear campaign. He claimed the complaints about his behaviour were made up by Lively as part of an effort to seize creative control of the movie. He countersued, accusing Lively and her husband, Deadpool actor Ryan Reynolds, of defamation and extortion.

“},{“_id”:”MB2C7HVXF5DKZHELKIRR2RH454″,”type”:”text”,”content”:”

Liman threw out Baldoni’s countersuit last year and then dismissed Lively’s sexual harassment claims weeks ago, saying she could not bring them because she was an independent contractor rather than an employee on the movie set.

“},{“_id”:”LTJNVAGZV5DGZLYTOESHU4YWPQ”,”type”:”text”,”content”:”

It Ends With Us, an adaptation of Colleen Hoover’s bestselling 2016 novel about a relationship devolving into domestic violence, was released in August 2024 and exceeded box office expectations.

“},{“_id”:”JVLQPHUL3VFJRC44UD54WSINO4″,”type”:”text”,”content”:”

Lively appeared in the 2005 film The Sisterhood of the Travelling Pants and the TV series Gossip Girl from 2007 to 2012 before starring in films including The Town and The Shallows.

“},{“_id”:”5K467X3ZBJFPLEHOQUHE6B4ACY”,”type”:”text”,”content”:”

Baldoni starred in the TV comedy Jane the Virgin, directed the 2019 film Five Feet Apart and wrote Man Enough, a book challenging traditional notions of masculinity.

For Sir Dave Dobbyn, it's “huge†to be playing a one-night-only concert at the beautiful Auckland Civic Theatre on July 25, following his sold-out Selected Songs tour last year.

“},{“_id”:”CXQ2ZYYPXVAG7LHDM4BKM2PIGI”,”type”:”text”,”content”:”

Diagnosed with Parkinson's disease in 2022, Dobbyn says he has to pace himself and gets some good camaraderie via “boxing lessons with other Parkinson's peopleâ€.

“},{“_id”:”X7WUE2YLMBAQNCGI53MVX6ORZQ”,”type”:”text”,”content”:”

“I think the most annoying part is the cognitive troubles. Some days, I can't put a sentence together and finish it because I'll forget what I was talking about.

“},{“_id”:”HCNEFAXSGZBX7EYLAK7IEUQMLI”,”type”:”text”,”content”:”

“That could be just an age thing, but I'm pretty sure it's a Parkinson's symptom,†he tells RNZ's Sunday Morning.

Dobbyn at Civic: ‘It's like a church for me’

Despite the challenges of Parkinson's, Dobbyn says he's still coming up with musical ideas.

“},{“_id”:”KEEKSXKQSBBK3NL6M7TQ5WLV6Y”,”type”:”text”,”content”:”

“I can spot a really good idea, and it's usually like when I'm in a hurry, or just about to leave the room, or I've gone out for a leak. In the middle of it, I'll go ‘ta-da!' and then run back into the studio and try and capture what I did.â€

“},{“_id”:”I6I73ACKLZEXPDAZZSUEMYOKSM”,”type”:”text”,”content”:”

He's also working on a “lyric book with anecdotesâ€. Asking artificial intelligence (AI) for a good title of a memoir, it suggested Beside You [the name of his 1998 hit].

On last year's “wonderful†Selected Songs tour, Dobbyn says he was reminded how people own their own version of his songs.

“},{“_id”:”NOVB6OOC2FHF7KXDLE7EYRHETQ”,”type”:”text”,”content”:”

“It just reminds them of tough times or good times or whatever.

“},{“_id”:”XHY7XHRNI5AFPFAGZ7GEV63AFE”,”type”:”text”,”content”:”

“I always scan their faces, just imagining people's stories. I can glean so much from their faces in terms of what their story might be. Through the gig, I'll be speculating what so-and-so's stories were and how they're related to the other person there … It's a game I play.â€

“That involves community. When you're playing music, it's right in the middle of the community, and you can't forget that. It's us, you know – not us and them.â€

“We used to come to town in the old diesel buses along TÄmaki Drive and walk up the street holding each other's shirt tails. There was an American milk bar halfway up Queen Street where they had booths and a jukebox and all that, and we'd get huge milkshakes in aluminium cans.

Taylor Swift’s new song for the Disney and Pixar’s forthcoming Toy Story 5 film is here.

“},{“_id”:”F4SUXHFBUJB6HOD6ZYV4MODC7I”,”type”:”text”,”content”:”

On Friday, Swift released “I Knew It, I Knew You,†a bit of a return to country music for the performer who first made a name for herself in the Nashville music scene before taking over the world. Here’s everything you need to know about “I Knew It, I Knew You.â€

“},{“_id”:”ZLBIM2IIEBHMRNGNN3SFRIOKHI”,”type”:”text”,”content”:”

Taylor Swift goes country … again

“},{“_id”:”Q2STTZFMWZEZNKQGJ3HXXYUH7M”,”type”:”text”,”content”:”

Swift doesn’t sing with a familiar twang on “I Knew It, I Knew You,†but no matter — the song features some elements inextricable from the country genre: Live instrumentation, plucky banjo and harmonica that opens the track.

“},{“_id”:”T7J2EHNN3BDFTA4FZYKXUU7API”,”type”:”text”,”content”:”

Most view Swift’s last official foray into the country music genre to be 2012’s “Red,†though the album is much more of a crossover experiment. It would be more astute to label “Speak Now†as her last true-blue, full-length, country music release — and that was more than 15 years ago.

“},{“_id”:”TS4IYTQUMZCOPEJMRKT2FHSIXI”,”type”:”text”,”content”:”

Additionally: “I Knew It, I Knew You†is also Swift’s first original material since “The Life of a Showgirl†was released in October.

“},{“_id”:”4C4VU5MAC5EJJIRGBNGSIO23GQ”,”type”:”text”,”content”:”

The song is also co-produced by Jack Antonoff, her former, frequent collaborator. Swift started working with Antonoff on 2014’s “1989†through 2024’s “The Tortured Poets Department.â€

“},{“_id”:”AOV2IQB6RJBYHOZW7I5WM7GUPY”,”type”:”text”,”content”:”

Notably, the pair started their long collaboration after Swift’s country era, perhaps with the rare exception of “Betty†from her 2020 “Folklore†album.

“},{“_id”:”47DN2MZHIBDJRPSCWONLWBGMTQ”,”type”:”text”,”content”:”

“Writing this song felt like a musical departure and coming home at the same time. Creating something for Jessie was a new challenge and also felt like second nature all at once,†Swift wrote on social media Friday, referencing the beloved cowgirl character. “And being a ‘Toy Story' kid from the age of 5 til now… is an adventure I plan to be on, to infinity and beyond.â€

The ‘I Knew It, I Knew You' rollout

“},{“_id”:”RY3A36UTENCHXKBDHJDUV2IXBQ”,”type”:”text”,”content”:”

Last weekend, billboards with the initials “TS,†stylised like the “Toy Story†logo, appeared in Los Angeles, Chicago, Dallas, San Francisco, Toronto, Mexico City and London — fitting, as “TS†works both for the beloved franchise and the musician.

“},{“_id”:”4XSWDHDACNC7PHAJVIKLTZS7WE”,”type”:”text”,”content”:”

On Monday, Swift confirmed the song was forthcoming, writing on Instagram, “I've always dreamed of getting to write for these characters who I've adored since I was a 5-year-old kid watching the first Toy Story movie. I fell instantly in love with Toy Story 5 when I was lucky enough to see it in its early stages, and I wrote this song as soon as I got home from the screening. Sometimes you just know, right?â€

“},{“_id”:”VJUMRIHCENEKDGJFTWD3K5SBHQ”,”type”:”text”,”content”:”

She also shared that preorders for three CD single versions of the track were available on her site. They quickly sold out: One features the song as it appears in the film, another is an acoustic version and the last is a piano version.

“},{“_id”:”CFHZKK5RNRDNTICEH6ZAKJMOOY”,”type”:”text”,”content”:”

“It's incredible just how meaningful it's been having Taylor write and perform this song. Her connection to Jessie and the immediate way she understood what the character was going through was undeniable,†“Toy Story 5†director and writer Andrew Stanton said in a press statement at the time. “The song is so deeply connected to ‘Toy Story.' So much so that on first listen, it instantly felt like it had always belonged there, like a long-lost family member. It was kismet.â€

“},{“_id”:”I52AC2KMEJBXJBRKGU6BYLWBOU”,”type”:”text”,”content”:”

Is Taylor Swift headed to the Oscars?

“},{“_id”:”LK4FIOL3NJGPBBVWME4L3YVC7Q”,”type”:”text”,”content”:”

Some fans online have begun speculating: Could this be an Oscar contender in the original song category?

“},{“_id”:”F2QKVRYFDFHYFMDUFECW2CUAVU”,”type”:”text”,”content”:”

Quite possibly, if it adheres to all relevant rules and regulations! For 2027 Academy Awards consideration, a feature film — and its song submissions — must have a qualifying theatrical release between January 1 and December 31 this year. “Toy Story 5†will be released in theatres worldwide on June 19, so it qualifies there.

“},{“_id”:”ST5NMRTTQ5GNVB3IK44D2QGZBI”,”type”:”text”,”content”:”

It also depends on when “I Knew It, I Knew You†is placed in “Toy Story 5.†There’s a new rule this year: If the song plays over the end credits, it must also overlap with the last 15 seconds of the film before the credits actually begin.

“},{“_id”:”4CIH7VPL7JF5ZABY5NCJ5E6JV4″,”type”:”text”,”content”:”

At any rate, if Swift’s song is submitted — and if she were to win — she’d be just that much closer to an EGOT. She has 14 Grammys and an Emmy. An Oscar would mean she’d only need a Tony. Could Broadway be next?
