Josh Hutcherson may be one of the most famous movie stars in the world, but the I Love LA star keeps his relationship with girlfriend Claudia Traisac out of the spotlight. To learn more about Claudia and their low-key romance, keep reading.

Who Is Claudia Traisac?

Originally from Spain, Claudia is a film actress who rose to prominence for her role in the series Cuéntame cómo pasó. As an acclaimed television star, Claudia has also appeared in main roles in series such as 18 and Vivir sin permiso.

Claudia’s first movie role was in 2004’s El 7 Dia, and she later appeared in the musicals Hoy No Me Puedo Levantar and La Llamada.

How Long Have Josh and Claudia Been Dating?

Neither Josh nor Claudia has publicly confirmed the start of their relationship, but multiple outlets reported that they began dating in 2013. They first met on the set of their film Escobar: Paradise Lost. And as true star-crossed lovers, Josh and Claudia’s on-screen characters fall in love after he meets her on a trip to Colombia.

Since then, Josh and Claudia have been spotted on rare occasions in Los Angeles and traveling around the world together.

What Has Josh Said About Claudia?

The Five Nights at Freddy’s actor and the El 7 Dia actress rarely speak about their romance in public. However, they finally broke their silence about it during a 2015 red carpet interview with E!

“It’s pretty good. Distance is hard, but we make it work,” Josh admitted to the outlet, while Claudia added, “I’m really happy. It’s really great.”

Later that year, the Hunger Games franchise star got candid about the difficulties in managing a long-distance relationship. “There’s a lot of traveling, a lot of Skype,” he told Dujour magazine at the time. “I feel like I’m with you because I’m seeing you and we’re talking, but also you’re a f**king screen. It’s very frustrating.”

Nevertheless, the duo seemingly haven’t had a problem with spending some time physically apart. They’ve continued to land acting roles while maintaining a healthy relationship.

Nearly 10 years after they opened up about their romance, Josh made a rare comment about Claudia during his January 2024 appearance on The Tonight Show With Jimmy Fallon. Though he refrained from saying Claudia’s name, the Beekeeper actor discussed the whistle meme of him that became viral on social media.

“I had no idea [the whistle meme] existed, and then my girlfriend posted it,” Josh said to host Jimmy Fallon.

Are Josh and Claudia Still Together?

As of 2025, it appears that Josh and Claudia are still together. Although the couple keep their love away from the public eye, Josh affectionately talked about his girlfriend during an August 2025 interview with People while revealing the name she calls his dog, Smudge.

“My girlfriend is from Madrid, and she couldn’t really say Smudge — it’s a hard word to pronounce in Spanish,” he explained. “We looked up that Mancha is the Spanish for a smudge, and so, Manchi became the cute Spanish version.”

Meet Isaac Middleton, the Artist Who Never Stopped Betting on Himself

by jummy84 November 14, 2025

written by jummy84

Isaac Middleton is one of those artists you can’t quite put in a single box, and that’s exactly what makes his story compelling. Whether you know him as 8010az on Twitch, Isaac M when he’s singing, or Da Fire Hawk in his streaming world, he’s been building his path brick by brick, long before social media made hustling look glamorous.

He grew up in small towns, South Carolina, Florida, Virginia and Alabama, but he never saw that as a limitation. If anything, it made his dreams louder. Isaac jokes that he’s been grinding since the dial-up days, and honestly, it shows. Every move he’s made has been about growth, about learning, about refusing to let circumstances shrink his ambition.

Now based in California, Isaac is open about the ups and downs that come with chasing a creative career. “I’m not getting younger, but age doesn’t matter, I want my name everywhere, and I’m not letting a number slow me down,” he says. It’s a mindset that’s carried him through moments where motivation dips, grounded always by his faith, his family, his friends and the fans who believe in him.

Isaac’s creative world is wide. Acting is his main focus, but he doesn’t stop there, he’s also producing, directing, writing books, making music and running projects like the IME iRadio Station. He treats every opportunity like it’s the one that could change everything, and that’s why he doesn’t let any slip through his fingers.

His creative output includes the Guardians of the Dawn book series and his music track “Time Just Float Away,” produced with DJ Fire Hawk and featured on IME iRadio. His acting work spans everything from indie sets to union productions, each role adding another layer to the career he’s building with intention and purpose.

But what sets him apart isn’t just the work, it’s the person behind it. Isaac is easy to root for because he’s real. He loves burgers, pizza and sweets (even when he’s trying to cut back), spends hours on video games, hits the gym, enjoys the beach and is a fan of superheroes and anime. He was born on November 8, went to Eastside High, then continued his studies at San Diego City College and San Diego Christian College. He’s an everyday guy with extraordinary drive.

If you’ve supported him along the way, Isaac wants you to know he doesn’t take it lightly. “Thank you for supporting me as an actor, singer, songwriter, author, and podcaster. I’m grateful every day,” he says.

Because at the end of the day, Isaac Middleton isn’t waiting for someone to hand him a breakthrough, he’s creating it himself. And if his journey proves anything, it’s that big dreams don’t need big beginnings. They just need someone willing to keep going, no matter what.

written by jummy84

At Zarine Khan’s recent prayer meet in Mumbai, her husband Sanjay Khan fondly recalled how he proposed to her, describing her as beautiful, intelligent, and an ideal life partner. Their daughter, Farah Khan Ali, shared a video from the emotional gathering, where family members remembered Zarine with love and admiration. The prayer meet was attended by several celebrities, including Jitendra, Salim Khan, Rakesh Roshan, Hrithik Roshan, Saba Azad, Fardeen Khan, and Saif Ali Khan, among others, who came together to pay tribute to Zarine Khan’s warmth, grace, and enduring legacy in both family and film circles.

Sanjay Khan Reminisces About the Moment He Proposed to Zarine Khan

Zarine’s husband, actor Sanjay Khan, reminisced about the moment he proposed to her. “I met her when I was 18 and she was 14. When I looked into her luminous, beautiful eyes, I felt as if I was looking at the world. I asked her, ‘Will you marry me?’ She looked at me with a smile and said, ‘If I feel the same about you that I feel now, I’ll say yes after one year.’ So I stated, ‘With or without her beauty, she is also an intelligent person. She will make me a very good wife’.”

Hrithik Roshan Fondly Remembers His Former Mother-in-Law Zarine Khan

Speaking about his mother, Zarine, her son Zayed Khan said: “My mother was my God. I’ll miss her deeply.” Hrithik Roshan said, “It has been my privilege to love and be loved by you.”

Zarine Khan’s Family Remembers Her Fondly

In the video, priests from various faiths offered prayers for Zarine Khan, symbolising unity and respect. Her daughter Sussanne Khan grew emotional and was seen weeping as she sat among the guests, reminiscing about her mother. A projector displayed heartfelt photos of Zarine with her loved ones, while family members, including her grandchildren, shared touching words, expressing deep admiration and gratitude for her love, kindness, and strength.

Farah Ali Khan Writes an Emotional Note Remembering Her Mother

Farah Khan Ali penned a heartfelt note for her late mother, expressing gratitude for the immense love and admiration Zarine Khan received. Sharing the video from the prayer meet, Farah conveyed how deeply moved she was by the affection and respect shown towards her mother by everyone who knew her.

Sanjay Khan and Zarine Khan

“Zarine Sanjay Khan to the world — but to me and my siblings, simply our mother. She was my world, or so I thought… until I witnessed the overwhelming turnout of people from all walks of life who came forward to pay their last respects to a woman who made each one feel seen and heard, irrespective of class, social status, or faith. To her, all were equal, and all equally important. I am truly blessed to have witnessed this outpouring of love for my mother. I’m also profoundly grateful for having had her in my life for more than half a century, because every moment of that time was precious,” she said.

Farah wrote about how her mother lovingly raised her and her siblings, highlighting Zarine Khan’s strength, warmth, and unwavering dedication to her family. “She shaped me and my siblings in her image — she loved generously and gave without flinching. She had a golden heart, just like the meaning of her beautiful name, Zarine, which means ‘golden’ or ‘to shine.’ And shine she did — the brightest of all — as she left her earthly abode for her heavenly one. Thank you, God, for my mother. Thank you for all the love she received. Thank you that she lives on in me and my siblings. We will carry her legacy forward,” she concluded.

Every year, universities and student communities have the same mission, running events that bring students together, such as cultural nights, society fundraisers, career fairs, and parties. Unfortunately, often those events go unseen. Promotion is scattered across posters, group chats, and social media, while ticketing tools are expensive or complicatedly designed for large corporate organisers rather than students. CampVents was created to bridge this gap.

Madhur Dixit Thanks Toronto for ‘lovely Meet and Greet’ Amid Controversy

by jummy84 November 6, 2025

written by jummy84

Madhuri Dixit is making headlines for her Dil Se… Madhuri event in Toronto. The actress faced backlash for allegedly arriving nearly three hours late. Fans who attended expressed their thoughts on social media and criticised the organisers for promoting the event as a concert when it was perceived to be a talk show. Some individuals also criticised Madhuri’s late arrival, while others described the evening as a disappointing experience and a complete waste of time and resources.

However, following the event, the Dil To Pagal Hai actress shared a post on Instagram thanking her fans and expressing her gratitude. She also announced dates of her further meet and greet events that will take place in New Jersey, Boston, Chicago, Houston, New York. This did not sit well with the fan and they demanded an apology from the actress for a similar event that took place on November 2. The confusion ensued when fans thought that the November 2 event would be a dance and musical night, but actually it was a ‘Meet and Greet’ event instead.

“Why were you 3 hours late with no apologies?” read one comment while another person wrote, “Madhuri Dixit Nene. I grew up loving you and watching you. As of now. Toronto is very disappointed in your show. They were misled. False advertising on what the show was supposed to be. What everyone was expecting and what actually happened.” Complaining about a fake advertisement for the Toronto show, another netizen added, “But you owe Toronto an apology for fake advertising…your own post on your profile doesn’t call it a Meet and Greet. You say an evening of dance , music and celebrations”

Meanwhile, Atique Sheikh, the event organiser stated recently that although the actress was on time, she got late due to ‘miscommunication from the management.’

He said in a statement, “It was a management miscommunication. That’s how some fans must have gotten confused, we can’t have a concert in a small banquet. It was pretty well mentioned before about the show being a Fan Meet. Madhuri ji has worked with us in the past as well and something like this has never happened. She in fact performed on her hit songs. Our idea was to present her celebrated journey in the industry and have a fan interaction.”

Who are Roman and Harleymoon Kemp? Meet Celebrity Race Across the World 2025 contestants

by jummy84 November 6, 2025

written by jummy84

Celebrity Race Against the World is back for another season, bringing a whole new set of celebs and family members on a continent-spanning adventure.

This season’s route will see the contestants starting off on a Caribbean island before making their way through a series of checkpoints on their way to the finish line in Colombia’s Peninsula de La Guajira – known as the gateway to South America.
As with previous seasons of the show, the celebs are given a budget of the price of plane ticket if they were to fly the same route, which this time around sees them surviving on as a little as £30 a day – one of the smallest budgets the show has seen to date. They are also not allowed access to smart phones or the internet to help them navigate their journey.

As they compete alongside the other celebrity contestants to make it to the initial checkpoint first, here’s everything you need to know about contestants and siblings Roman and Harleymoon Kemp.

Who are Roman and Harleymoon?

Relationship: Brother and sister

From: London

Jobs: Radio DJ and singer/songwriter

Instagram: @romankemp and @harleymoonkemp

Roman Kemp is a 32-year-old radio DJ and presenter, best known for hosting the breakfast show on CapitalFM from 2017 to 2024.

He is taking part in the race alongside his older sister, 36-year-old Harleymoon, who is a singer/songwriter. Roman and Harleymoon are the children of musicians Martin Kemp and Shirlie Holliman, who independently found success in the ’80s as part of the bands Spandeau Ballet and Wham! respectively.
Roman struggled with the language whilst racing through the South American continent, telling Radio Times magazine that he kept “mistakenly telling everyone Harley was ‘my beautiful’ – mi hermosa – instead of ‘my sister’ – mi hermana – for at least a week.”

Why did Roman and Harleymoon want to take part in Celebrity Race Across the World?

When asked if he had considered taking his famous dad rather than his sister on the show with him, Roman only had one thing to say: “No way!”

He continued: “I am very lucky that I do a lot of stuff with my dad, and I think that the reason I do those things is I can’t wait to show my kids or my grandkids what my relationship was like with my dad. With this, it’s such a privilege to be able to do something so special with your sister.

“It’s such a privilege to be able to have that and to also show that to future generations and to share an experience. The other side of it is for personal reasons, travelling and seeing new places and seeing different cultures or being in certain experiences has such a great impact on my perspective and what life is about.”

Harleymoon also revealed to Radio Times magazine that their mum had previously been asked to go on the show.

“My mum [Shirlie Kemp, a former backing singer for Wham! and half of Pepsi & Shirlie] was asked to be in the first celebrity Race across the World and was going to take me, but thought it sounded too hard. I was glad to have another chance to go,” she said.

The first episode of Celebrity Race Across the World series 3 will air tonight on BBC One and BBC iPlayer at 8pm.

Bryiana was a pageant queen and model before launching her own haircare line. In 2013, she was Playboy’s Miss September. She has continued her pageant journey and became Mrs. Queen of the World in 2022.

Bryiana didn’t have the easiest time growing up. She was diagnosed with severe aplastic anemia, a life-threatening blood disease, at just 10 years old.

In March 2023, Bryiana opened up about her autism diagnosis. “After a few months of privately processing my autism diagnosis, I decided to come out about it because the little girl in the last slide deserved better,” Bryiana wrote on Instagram. “I’ve finally reached the acceptance phase of my late diagnosis and am filled with more hope and peace than ever before. So, if you see me acting different, it’s because I am.”

She was diagnosed in December 2022. “I’m still new to this journey and have three decades of learning, unlearning, and re-learning to do, so I ask for your patience and grace as I go down this new path to rediscover myself… the me I was always meant to be.”

Rob showed his support for Bryiana in the comments. He wrote, “Brave, Beautiful and truly special. You are a gift to this world. You have always been perfect and always will be. Love you so much.”

How Did Rob Dyrdek and Bryiana Dyrdek Meet?

It all started with some DMs. In an interview with Carrie Doll, Bryiana revealed that she met Rob after he started following her on Twitter. She said that he “started DMing” her and then texted her asking “if I wanted to hang out.”

Initially, Bryiana was resistant to Rob’s charms, but he persisted. “I was posting about an animal shelter in Bakersfield that was going out of business so they had to find new homes… so he was like, ‘I was thinking we could take a helicopter and save some puppies.’ But I didn’t know him well enough to know that he was joking,” Bryiana continued.

When Rob was late, Bryiana thought she was being catfished. They had never talked on the phone prior to meeting up. Rob did end up bringing a helicopter on their date. He joined her on the trip to the animal shelter, and they spent the entire day together. She called it “the perfect day.” Bryiana revealed that Rob knew “day one” that he wanted to marry her. And the rest is history!

In honor of the 10-year anniversary of when they met, Bryiana shared the text chain between her and Rob after their first date.

Rob and Bryiana got engaged in April 2015. He proposed in the middle of the Aladdin show at Disneyland. “I am truly humbled by our love. It is truly a divine creation,” he wrote on Instagram. “@bryiana_noelle you are the love of my life and my true destiny. The day I met you I knew I would spend the rest of my life with you. What our relationship has actually become is million times better then I knew was even possible. My dreams and your dreams are our dreams. I love you more than words could ever describe and can’t wait for you to be my wife.”

They married months later on September 19, 2015. Rob and Bryiana’s wedding took place at the Fantasy Factory in Los Angeles, and the ceremony was featured in an episode of Rob Dyrdek’s Fantasy Factory.

In honor of Bryiana’s 32nd birthday, Rob penned a heartfelt note to his soulmate. “Growing more beautiful with each passing day. No doubt someone bigger brought you down. We love you so much. Everyday day is brand new and you keep writing this fate and I am so thankful to be apart [sic] of it. I love you so much,” he wrote on Instagram.

Do Rob Dyrdek and His Wife Have Kids?

Rob and Bryiana welcomed their first child, a son named Kodah Dash Dyrdek, in 2016. They welcomed a daughter named Nala Ryan Dyrdek a year later in 2017.

What Does Bryiana Dyrdek Do for a Living?

Bryiana is the president of Iconic Beauty. She founded the company in 2014 and began hosting “once-a-year events for women to learn self-development tools, network, and create memories that would last a lifetime,” according to Iconic Beauty’s website.

Bryiana and her team later created a haircare line “made of the best ingredients in order to protect your hair so that you Look Good and Feel Good.” Iconic Beauty includes shampoo and conditioner, hairspray, drink mix, and more.
