Chrissy Teigen, John Legend and Gwyneth Paltrow drive through Hollywood to celebrate Joe Biden’s win

Chrissy Teigen and John Legend have been outspoken in their dislike of US President Donald Trump over the past four years, so it's no surprise that the A-list couple were first in line for a Hollywood victory parade to celebrate Joe Biden and Kamala Harris' win in the US elections.

The couple have been the subject of tweeted tirades from Trump over the years, with the president once referring to Legend as a “boring musician".

During the parade, the pair hung out of the sunroof and windows of their car to celebrate in the streets of West Hollywood, as onlookers lined the streets and cheered.

Taking to Instagram, Teigen shared a photo of her children, Luna, 4, and Miles, 2, watching the election, along with the caption: “Democracy restored, faith renewed.”

Before the couple headed to Santa Monica Boulevard, 34-year-old Teigen lamented on Twitter that she was "jealous of everyone partying in the streets, Beverly Hills quiet". She then filmed herself getting ready, saying: “I’m getting out there.”

The Sports Illustrated cover star and Cravings author was soon all over social media, pictured celebrating and saying of the impromptu parade: "Everyone is so beautiful and so happy, I'm crying."

Teigen also posted a photo of herself with incoming Vice President Kamala Harris, in a move replicated by Oscar winner Gwyneth Paltrow, who shared an image of herself with Harris, writing: "A momentous day for women all around the globe as Kamala Harris makes history. Congratulations Madame Vice President."

The Iron Man actress, 48, stylishly drove through the parade in a white convertible Mercedes-Benz, with her TV producer husband, Brad Falchuk, in the passenger seat waving to the crowds.

Also spotted at the parade were 21-year-old singer and Justin Bieber protegee, Madison Beer, and Hawaii Five-O actress Cara Santana.

The figure was broadly flat immediately before the Covid-19 pandemic, standing at 216,000 in the year to June 2018 and 224,000 in the year to June 2019.

It then dropped to an estimated 111,000 in the year to June 2020 when restrictions introduced during the pandemic limited travel and movement.

The total rose to 254,000 in the year to June 2021, followed by steep jumps to 634,000 in the year to June 2022 and 906,000 in the year to June 2023.

The latest available figure of 728,000 for the 12 months to June 2024 suggests levels are starting to decrease.

Quick pearls of wisdom

Focus on gratitude: And do so deeply, he says. “Think of one to three things a day that you’re grateful for. It needs to be specific, too, don’t just say ‘air.’ Really think about it. If you’re grateful for, say, what your parents have done for you, that will motivate you to do more for the world.”

Know how to fight: Shetty married his wife, Radhi, three years ago (he met her in a meditation class before he went off and became a monk). He says they’ve had to learn to respect each other’s “fighting styles” – he’s a talk it-out-immediately person, while she needs space to think. “When you’re having an argument, remember, it’s not you against each other. It’s both of you against the problem. When you win, they lose. If you’re on a team you have to win together.”
