She told British Glamour, when asked if she had advice for the next generation: “Use your voice and don’t be afraid to stand up for what matters to you. I know it is easier said than done, but don’t shy away from it.”
The sports star, who recently won her fourth Grand Slam title at the Australian Open, added: “One piece of advice I will always keep sacred and with me was from Kobe.
“He was a mentor and close friend and he helped me get through some of the toughest parts of my life as an athlete. I remember telling him I wanted to be like him, and his response was ‘No, be better.’ I will never forget that.”

Eve Hewson really hates “playing characters that are based on looks”. So much so, says the 29-year-old, who has appeared in Steven Spielberg’s Bridge of Spies and Steven Soderbergh’s The Knick, that “whenever I read a script about ‘the most beautiful girl in the room’, I actually want to puke”.
Whether it’s “the cool sexy girl” or “the pretty girlfriend or lover”, she’s “just not interested”, Hewson tells me over Zoom, from the London flat in which she’s locked down until her US visa comes through and she can fly back to New York, her home for the past decade.

“Framing Britney Spears,” the documentary that offers an inside look at the #FreeBritney movement, exposes the many ways the pop icon has been mistreated by the media and those around her over the years. Spears has been under a conservatorship controlled by her father since 2008, and activists she is being held under against her will.
The documentary has given the movement even more mainstream attention, prompting new interest and concern over the case. It also served as a wake-up call to the media, fans and Justin Timberlake to finally reckon with and reevaluate the ways Spears’ life and career have gotten to this point, and the role each played in driving the narrative.
