RUMORS have been swirling for weeks that Harry Styles had been booked for the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show, and now the lingerie giant has confirmed that the former One Direction star will indeed perform at the Shanghai catwalk spectacular on November 20.

 Zimbabwe's ruling party has sacked President Robert Mugabe as its leader, officials say. Zanu-PF has appointed ex-vice-president Emmerson Mnangagwa, who had been fired by Mr Mugabe two weeks ago.

Mr Mugabe is set to meet military leaders on Sunday and a motorcade has been seen leaving his private residence. Tens of thousands of Zimbabweans had attended street protests on Saturday, demonstrating against the Mugabes.

He said cheering erupted as the decision was announced, although the move has yet to be formalised. But it increases further the pressure on Mr Mugabe that has been building over the past few days, and there are now moves to impeach him as
