Ms. Marvel is the highest-rated MCU series on Rotten Tomatoes but the lowest-rated MCU series on IMDB. The difference in rating hints towards something else, reports Forbes. The reason why there is a huge disparity in Ms. Marvel’s reviews on different platforms is that it is being ‘review-bombed’, as per Forbes.
What is review-bombing?
A review-bomb is an Internet phenomenon in which large groups of people leave negative user reviews online in an attempt to harm the sales and/or popularity of a product. Ms. Marvel is being review-bombed as users are spamming the series with a lot of 1-star reviews as compared to more than any other MCU series.
As per the news outlet, apparently the show is getting negative reviews because it stars a Pakistani Muslim Girl. However, the other reasons could be that it is aimed at younger audience or the show has changed Ms Marvel’s powers from the comics.
“Ms. Marvel is undisputably being review-bombed, namely because of the core identity of the character including her race and religion. It’s not surprising, but it still sucks.,” Paul Tasii writes.
Ms. Marvel is currently streaming on Disney+ on. Marvel’s first Pakistani Muslim woman superhero is being played by Iman Vellani.
Politician and television host Dr Aamir Liaquat Hussain was found dead on Thursday at his residence.
He was found unresponsive at his house and was rushed to Aga Khan University Hospital.
Several prominent celebrities like Zara Noor Abbas, Sanam Jung, Feroze Khan, Humaima Malick, Faysal Quraishi, Yasir Jaswal among others took to Instagram and shared the news with prayers for the departed.
And that’s the filth that social media has. The Dark Power. It can ruin people and throw them into a pit of hollowness. And now suddenly Amir Liaqat becomes a sad and shocking demise. Why is everyone shocked? Wasn’t every passed video of him a lead to where he is now?

“We plan as if we’re going to live forever but aglay lamhay ka pata nahi hota [but we don’t know what’s going to happen the next moment]. Life can be taken away in an instant. Shocking!” wrote actor Armeena Khan.
Bigg Boss contestant and Indian actor Aly Goni also tweeted for the Aalim Online star.
Dua Malik posted several pictures with Liaquat and dedicated a long post to him. “My dear Aamir Bhai, my eyes and heart are both crying. No one knows how many people you helped. The Aamir Bhai who came whenever you asked, the Aamir Bhai who stood with you in times of need, the Aamir Bhai who held your hand when you were in pain. For God’s sake, stop your social wars. Stop mocking people’s deaths on social media. For God’s sake, spread love,” she wrote.
The Sinf-e-Aahan star, Merub, shared a thought-provoking point and commented, “Step 1: Make memes on people. Step 2: Play God and punish them. Step 3: When they leave this world, put up sympathetic posts. And repeat.” She then added, “Who is going to put an end to this aimless trolling?”
Dr Aamir Liaquat Hussain was found dead on Thursday at his house in Karachi. Liaquat was a religious scholar, politician and TV show host.
The cause of his death is still unknown. His daughter has requested that post-mortem should not be carried out while the police have asked for an autopsy.
Some people on social media are expressing their grief over his death while some others think that his death should not mean they start hiding his reality.
Have a look at how people are reacting to his death:
2018 میں عامر لیاقت نے پی ٹی ایم کے لاہور جلسے کے بعد میری بیوی کی تصاویر لگا کر انہیں سی آئی ایجنٹ قرار دیا جس کی وجہ سے میری نوکری بھی گئی اور کچھ عرصے کے لئے ملک چھوڑنا پڑا۔ لیکن ہماری دعا ہے اللہ ان کی مغفرت فرمائے اور آگے کی منزلیں آسان فرمائے۔ بے شک معاف کرنا بہترین عمل ہے
Some think we shouldn’t speak ill of the dead. But some negatives legacies should never be forgetten. #AmirLiaquat was Pakistan’s most prolific & influential televangelist. People who build their persona & influence off religion must be held by a higher moral and ethical code.
Aamir Liaquat is dead. Here’s hoping the era of hate, bigotry, moral policing, hypocrisy & misogyny dies with him. We can and we should speak the truth about the dead (and those living)
Let's all agree that this is victim blaming, and Aamir Liaquat's victims had nothing to do with his death. He was no hero; his death doesn't absolve him of the harm and abuse he caused.
Agree or not, Pakistani men will always find a way to blame women for everything. https://t.co/qllfRo1XB9
I’m not going to say Aamir Liaquat’s death isn’t disturbing – but I will say – please do not make him a hero, and please do not start pinning the blame on someone else for his death. He was a grown man, fully aware of, and responsible for his own actions.
Pop singer Britney Spears’ wedding was interrupted Thursday when her ex-husband gatecrashed the party, US media reported. Spears and her partner Sam Asghari were readying to wed at her luxury pad near Los Angeles when the proceedings were interrupted.
Jason Alexander, a childhood friend to whom the 40-year-old singer was very briefly married in 2004, crashed the sun-soaked event, sparking a police response.
Alexander apparently livestreamed his invasion on Instagram, with footage showing him telling a security guard he had been invited.
“Where’s Britney?” he can be heard saying.
Later as he walks into a pink tent festooned with flowers, he identifies himself and says: “So here’s the inside scoop, guys, on the bullshit wedding.”
Entertainment website TMZ said a physical confrontation ensued and the police were called. Ventura County Sheriff’s Office said officers were called to investigate reports of someone trespassing and found that Alexander had an outstanding warrant against him from another jurisdiction, so they arrested him, Variety reported.
AFP was not immediately able to confirm the report. Spears’ wedding to Asghari was not widely trailed, with news of the nuptials appearing on specialist publications only hours earlier.
The couple said last month that the surprise pregnancy they had announced only weeks before had ended in a miscarriage.
That news came five months after a Los Angeles judge dissolved a conservatorship long overseen by Spears’s father, an arrangement the singer said had prevented her from having a contraceptive IUD removed despite her desire for more children. She is already mother to two teen sons, Sean and Jayden, with her ex-husband Kevin Federline.
Asghari and Spears met in 2016 when they co-starred in a music video for her single “Slumber Party.” After announcing their engagement late last year, Spears has since started referring to her 28-year-old partner as her “husband.”

Bollywood actor Kangana Ranaut seems to have fallen for a spoof, again.
Spoof video
After Qatar rebuked India for the derogatory remarks against Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) made by Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) spokespersons Nupur Sharma and Naveen Kumar Jindal, #BycottQatarAirways started trending on Indian Twitter.
An Indian Twitter user ‘Vashudev’ posted a video calling for the boycott of Qatar Airways.
Later, a spoof video with Qatar Airways CEO Akbar Al Baker replying to Vashudev’s boycott call in an interview with Al Jazeera went viral.
“Vashudev is our biggest shareholder with a total investment of ₹634.50 rupees. We don’t know how to operate anymore. We have grounded all the flights … we are requesting Vashudev to take this call for boycott back. This is a special kind of boycott because it is b-y-c-o-t-t. Vashudev habibi, we are willing to give you one whole plane to make your TikTok videos or maybe we can give you two litres of petrol free. Please consider our offer and take the boycott back,” Qatar Airways CEO’s voiceover says in the spoof video.
Kangana shares spoof video on Instagram
After the spoof video went viral, Kangana Ranauat shared it on her Instagram stories, thinking the video is ‘real’.
“This idiot of a man has no shame bullying a poor man mocking his insignificance and place in the world…Vasudev may be poor and insignificant for a rich man like you but he has the right to express his grief, pain and disappointment in whatever context it may be… remember there is a world beyond this world where we all are equal,” wrote Kangana in one of her Insta stories.
She continued: “All so called Indians who are cheering this bully for making fun of a poor man remember this is exactly why you all are a big bojh [burden] on this over populated country.”

Kangana later deleted her Instagram stories after journalist and fact-checker Mohammed Zubair informed her that it was a voiceover video made by an Indian.

Salman Khan and Boney Kapoor’s friendly relationship strained when Boney’s son Arjun Kapoor started dating Arbaaz Khan’s ex-wife Malaika Arora. This is also why Khan produced Radhe: Your Most Wanted Bhai without the senior Kapoor’s involvement, who had produced Wanted.
Now, at the IIFA awards ceremony in Abu Dhabi, Salman expressed his gratefulness towards the veteran producer. The Tiger 3 star said, “Boney ji has helped me throughout my life. When my career hit a rough patch, Boney Kapoor gave me a film called Wanted. After that, he gave another film No Entry.“
Salman also thanked senior actor Suniel Shetty, “When I didn’t have any money, actor Suniel Shetty had a shop called Mischief and I was eyeing a pair of stone wash jeans, boots, and a purse. I knew I couldn’t afford it because I didn’t have money. But Anna saw my eyes and decided to gift me what I yearned.” He even got teary eyed as he reached out towards the Hera Pheri hero’s son, Ahan Shetty.
Khan called producer Ramesh Taurani ‘God-like’ and revealed that he had helped him after Maine Pyaar Kiya, when he did not have work for about six months. He revealed, “I didn’t have any film for 6 months. Then a god-like man came in my life – Ramesh Taurani. At that time my father had made a fake announcement from JP Sippy by paying 2000 rupees in a film magazine. I didn’t have any film. Ramesh Taurani went to Sippy’s office and he gave him 5 lakh rupees for music at that time and that’s how I got the film Pathar Ke Phool.”
Iranian actor Zar Amir Ebrahimi, who lives in exile following a smear campaign about her love life, wept with joy as she won the Best Actress Award at the Cannes Film Festival.
Ebrahimi, 41, won for the film Holy Spider, in which she plays a journalist trying to solve the serial murders of prostitutes in Iran’s holy city of Mashhad.
— Festival de Cannes (@Festival_Cannes) May 28, 2022
“I have come a long way to be on this stage tonight. It was not an easy story. It was humiliation but there was cinema,” she told the audience in her acceptance speech.
Directed by Danish-Iranian Ali Abbasi, Holy Spider was inspired by the true story of a working-class man who killed prostitutes in the early 2000s and became known as the “Spider Killer”.
The film was not permitted to shoot in Iran and instead was made in Jordan.
Ebrahimi became a star in Iran in her early 20s for her supporting role in one of its longest-running soap operas, Nargess.
