Former President Barack Obama confirmed the existence of extraterrestrial life in an interview published Saturday, while also stating he had not personally encountered any aliens and that they were not being held at Area 51. In other news, a 37-home neighborhood in Florida is attracting wealthy residents seeking privacy, and actress Keke Palmer shared insights into her frugal financial habits. Additionally, Illinois Governor JB Pritzker is actively resisting ICE operations, and the Projeto Paradiso initiative is hosting a talent network meeting in Brazil.
Obama's remarks on extraterrestrial life came during an interview with progressive podcaster Brian Tyler Cohen. When asked about the existence of aliens, the former president responded, "They're real. But I haven't seen them. They're not being kept at Area 51." The interviewer did not pursue the topic further. Obama also addressed the recent deployment of immigration agents to Minnesota, condemning what he described as "rogue behavior" by the federal government.
Meanwhile, a secluded neighborhood in Delray Beach, Florida, is becoming a haven for the ultra-rich, including actor Mark Wahlberg. According to Fortune, the primary selling point of Stone Creek Ranch is privacy and a well-trained security staff composed of former military and police personnel. Senada Adžem, the executive director of luxury sales at Douglas Elliman, noted that home prices in the development averaged around $6 million before the influx of wealthy residents.
Actress Keke Palmer, known for her roles in films like "Nope" and "Hustlers," revealed her approach to managing her finances. In an interview with CNBC, Palmer stated, "I live under my means. I think it's incredibly important. If I have 1 million in my pocket, my rent is going to be 1,500—that's how underneath my means I'm talking. My car note is going to be 340. I don't need a Bentley Bentayga, I'll ride in a Lexus."
In the realm of politics, Illinois Governor JB Pritzker is actively working to limit ICE operations within the state. According to Vox, Pritzker has signed laws restricting ICE activities, established the Illinois Accountability Commission staffed by retired federal judges, sued the federal government, and successfully blocked the deployment of federal agents.
Finally, the Projeto Paradiso initiative will host a National Talent Network Meeting in Recife, Brazil, a burgeoning film capital. Variety reported that the event follows a successful showing at Rotterdam and will feature nine supported features playing in Berlin.
