Stars turn basketball finals into ultimate fashion front row

The NBA finals could wrap up this weekend, with the New York Knicks hoping to become champions for the first time since 1973.

And with Knicks fever comes fan style - especially courtside, where celebrities have been showing their support in different ways.

For Wednesday’s game four, which the Knicks won to give them a 3-1 lead over the San Antonio Spurs in a seven-game series, the singers Taylor Swift and Este and Alana Haim all wore T-shirts in the blue and orange of the Knicks with their own Knicks-related pop culture pun.

David Hockney changed the world just by looking at it.

The World Cup bonus What late opening hours could mean for pubs and drinkers

Keir Starmer may have imagined a national morale-boosting programme when his government told hospitality venues that they could stay open until 2am on some World Cup match days, to allow for the time difference with the US, Mexico and Canada, the tournament’s co-hosts, which means many England and Scotland games kick off at night.
