Tupperware Brands, headquartered in Orlando, Florida, has filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection.
This decision marks a turning point in the company’s 78-year history.
Tupperware Brands, whose name became synonymous with plastic food containers in kitchens across America, filed for bankruptcy protection on Tuesday after struggling for years with declining sales and increasing competition. https://t.co/bDDtQjxwSU
Tupperware’s popularity has plummeted in recent years, as the company has struggled to adapt to changing consumer tastes, particularly among younger people who favor more eco-friendly storage solutions.

What’s more, it’s also struggling to cope with competition offering more affordable prices.
The famous kitchenware company has announced its intention to continue operating during the bankruptcy proceedings and has asked the court for permission to sell the business to protect the brand while it overcomes its financial difficulties.

The company, which once revolutionized food preservation and is present in 70 countries worldwide, became famous for its direct sales system and vendor-led Tupperware parties.
However, this situation leaves many customers and sales reps in a state of uncertainty, even though Tupperware representatives are trying to reassure that they will do everything in their power to save the brand.
National Geographic has announced a very special new documentary based on the lives of a Quebec family, Blink.
“Following a diagnosis that changed the course of their lives, the Pelletier family embarks on a breathtaking journey to see the world through new eyes. National Geographic captures their race against time on a journey filled with love, discovery and unforgettable memories,” reads the description.
The trailer opens on a desert landscape where mother and daughter are glued together. The mother asks her to close her eyes and name her feelings. The child replies that she feels the wind, the sun… Then the mother asks her if she’d be able to enjoy a place like this if she couldn’t see.
Blink follows a family who have been terribly diagnosed with retinitis pigmentosa in three of their children. This is a degenerative genetic eye disease characterized by a progressive and gradual loss of vision, usually leading to complete blindness.

In an interview with Vanity Fair, Selena Gomez recently opened up about a subject that unfortunately affects many women.
She spoke about the challenges of her serious health problems and revealed that it was impossible for her to have children naturally.
Selena Gomez has always wanted a family, but due to health complications, the star will be exploring adoption or surrogacy—when she’s ready.
“I unfortunately can’t carry my own children,” she tells VF. “I have a lot of medical issues that would put my life and the baby’s in… pic.twitter.com/1WQUUFnYt8
The 32-year-old actress and singer, having faced several medical challenges, had to accept the idea of not being able to have children naturally after a lupus diagnosis in 2013 and a kidney transplant in 2017.

Gomez made a touching revelation when she emphasized the seriousness of her health condition, saying that she’s never said it until now, but that unfortunately, she can’t be pregnant, as her health problems would threaten her health and that of the baby.
The star’s revelations highlight not only her physical health problems, but also the emotional state she found herself in after this realization. She said she had been mourning her current situation for a long time.

Gomez is happy, however, to be able to consider options such as adoption or surrogacy, both of which she sees as a real blessing. This acceptance of a change of perspective on motherhood has enabled her to see that there are still many possible routes to becoming a mother.
Selena Gomez, who has been in a relationship with music producer Benny Blanco since 2023, revealed that they have openly discussed their future, including the possibility of getting married and having children.

However, she wants to take her time and develop her romantic relationship before making any bigger decisions.
For the occasion, the host took the opportunity to share a few snapshots of her daughter, Billie, as well as her mother and father, singer Patrick Zabé.
Warner Bros. has finally revealed the first trailer for its live-action film A Minecraft Movie, a project that has been in development for almost ten years.
Initial reactions, which find the trailer both entertaining and slightly bizarre, hint at the film’s potential success, but not without some controversy!
The first trailer for the live-action ‘MINECRAFT’ movie has been released.

June 2025 marks the official end of Lab-École ‘s eight-year mandate, rather than the five originally planned.
Six Scandinavian-inspired schools will have been built in these eight years, and they will unfortunately be the last.
At a conference on the subject, Minister of Education Bernard Drainville mentioned that the end of the project was a decision taken by the project’s founders: Pierre Thibault, Pierre Lavoie and Ricardo Larrivée. That this choice was not made by a government that wanted to cut back on school construction or renovation in Quebec.
Furthermore, in a press release published on the Lab-École organization’s website as well as on their Instagram account, it states:
“In the past year, the board of directors made the decision to end Lab-École ‘s activities considering that the mandate is fully realized and more.”
https://www.instagram.com/p/C_Nu-x6RHXc/
Despite this decision, the founders make no secret of their disappointment at not having been able to bring a Lab-École project to fruition in Montreal , where the number of dilapidated schools is the highest in the province. Apparently, it would not have been easy to obtain land on the CSSDM territory, but Griffintown would have been a perfect neighborhood for such a project.
Architect Pierre Thibault mentions that the aim of this innovative project was to inspire creativity in the construction of educational facilities. Now, what he would like to see is for this creativity to continue to be expressed through new school construction, but if it’s not Lab-École.
Certainly, when you understand the mission of these schools, it’s hard not to be disappointed to learn that there will be very few of them after all.
The aim of Lab-École is not just to innovate architecturally, but quite simply to rethink the role of the school. It’s no longer the traditional school as we know it, but a place where support is put forward; a socio-affective approach rather than a coercive one. Positive reinforcement rather than punishment. It’s a public school, no selection. A neighborhood school for everyone. It’s a place that’s meant to be catchy, where we get away from the lecture and get much more practical, but without losing the transmission of knowledge.
In a Radio-Canada article, the founders mention that although the government has not completed the project, collaboration has not always been straightforward.
According to Pierre Lavoie: “Education is not yet a priority in Quebec. Regardless of the government, we have to rebuild. Quebec schools are 60 years old,” reported Radio-Canada.
Pierre Thibault, for his part, deplores the fact that: “In the big ministries, we see that deputy ministers change often, that teams change often. It’s hard to stay the course of innovation when all the teams change”.
RicardoLarrivée added that: “As soon as governments feel that there’s economic pressure, that there’s an election, they’re all the same: they’re afraid. So they react with caution rather than vision. It’s the role of citizens to remind them: no, on the contrary, we want a vision.”
So that’s the end of this project, which has shown that it is possible to rethink school and take it out of its traditional framework, where not all students can find their place.
