Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC) shared photos of her “naked silhouette” on Capitol Hill Tuesday, alleging that they were taken without her consent by her ex-fiance. “Freedom is not a theory. It is the right to breathe. It is the right to dress and undress, to sleep without someone’s camera filming your naked body,” the congresswoman said during a House Oversight Committee hearing. “The Founders wrote liberty in parchment, but hidden cameras erase it in pixels.” “I speak not just as a lawmaker, but as a survivor.”

The '80s thriller demonised women seen as a 'threat' to the nuclear family – and gave rise to a particularly harmful phrase. Now as a TV remake begins, not much has changed, writes Leila Latif. In a world where Super Mario films and sexless Marvel sequels reign supreme at the box office, it's hard to imagine a return to 1987, where the highest-grossing film in the world was a psychosexual thriller about an extra-marital affair. Adrian Lyne, the king of the erotic thriller, directed Fatal Attraction, which grossed $320 million globally and was nominated for six Oscars. Now Paramount Plus...

Sarah Goodman says she and her family were at a wedding reception at a Kansas Community Center when her son wandered into the main hallway where the statue was placed.

IT really is a case of blonde ambition. Women with fair hair are more aggressive and determined to get their own way than brunettes or redheads, according to a study by the University of California. Researchers claim that blondes are more likely to display a “warlike” streak because they attract more attention than other women and are used to getting their own way — the so-called “princess effect”. Even those who dye their hair blonde quickly take on these attributes, experts found. The study could cast fresh light on the ability of Joanna Lumley, the actress and former model, to...

Sen. Hillary Clinton, D-N.Y., pressed her campaign ahead of Tuesday's West Virginia primary as Democratic Party leaders warned her not to do or say anything that could hurt Democratic front-runner Sen. Barack Obama, D-Ill., in November. Clinton is considered likely to win West Virginia's primary, perhaps by as many as 30 percentage points, but the victory in the small state is not expected to shake Obama's apparent hold on the party's nomination. What Democrats fear could have a lasting impact is what Clinton might say about Obama that could split the party or be gleefully reused by Republican John McCain...

HAYWARD - When Laura Medina allegedly chased after a car with her boyfriend and another woman in it, rammed it and caused it to crash, killing the woman, it was more a cat-and-mouse game than an attack based in a jealous rage, two women testified Thursday. On the first day of a preliminary hearing for the Oakland woman on one charge of second-degree murder and three counts of assault with a deadly weapon, the court heard different versions of what happened June 22, 2004. On that day, police say, Medina spotted her boyfriend, Hector Rodriguez , in a car with...
