College Katalina Daley celebrated earning her degree with a graduation photo shoot featuring two massive alligators

NEED TO KNOW

• Daley, who works at Gator Country Adventure Park & Sanctuary in Texas, said she regularly works with the reptiles

• The McNeese State University grad also told PEOPLE she has had a lifelong passion for wildlife

A woman'sgraduation photo shootcame with some serious bite thanks to a couple of massive alligators.

Katalina Daley recently graduated from McNeese State University in Louisiana with a Bachelor of General Studies.

Daley, 22, who has been working at Gator Country Adventure Park & Sanctuary in Beaumont, Texas, for the past year, celebrated the milestone with a wildlife shoot withtwo of the sanctuary's alligators: Big Al and Tex.

“My boss, Shannon Saurage, actually came up with the idea to put Big Al and Tex in my graduation photos and I loved it,” the animal care coordinator tells PEOPLE exclusively.

“I work with them almost every day, so putting them in my graduation photos just felt right,” she continues, adding that she is specially trained to work with the animals featured in the photos.

“We actually do educational shows with these two specific alligators daily,” she explains. “However, [I] also had other trained professionals behind me ready to help whenever I may need, as we do any time we interact with these animals.”

And while Daley says she was “excited” for the shoot, she also emphasizes the importance of remaining cautious andrespectful around the alligators.

“I always keep in mind that these are still wild animals at the end of the day, and keep a certain sense of weariness when working hands-on with them. I think it is always important to remember what they can do,” she adds.

Daley, who runs the sanctuary's Instagram account (@gator_country_beaumont_texas), as well as posts gator content under her personal handle (@katdaley919), says she’s a lifelong lover of animals and wildlife.

“Learning about and caring for animals has been a passion of mine ever since I can remember,” she tells PEOPLE.

“I have been involved inwildlife rehabilitationsince I was around seven years old,” she continues, adding, “Gators are definitely an obvious favorite for me, but raccoons and coatis are a pretty close second.”

Daley also says she believes alligators are largely misunderstood by the general public — which she attributes to misrepresentation in pop culture and media.

“Alligators and large reptiles are portrayed as the villain, and many times people are raised to fear them —  when in reality, they do not interfere with us as long as we don't interfere with them,” she says.

“Alligators are not out to get people. They would much rather be left alone,” the graduate adds.

As for Daley's plans post-graduation?

The animal lover, who co-manages the day-to-day operations of Gator Country with her fiancé, says she has already foundher dream jobat the sanctuary.

“We take care of all 1,000-plus animals in our care at the park and run our educational alligator feeding shows, where we interact with Big Tex and Al to teach the public about alligators,” she says, adding that they also train college interns on animal care and education.

“So I will stay where I am and see where it takes me!” she tells PEOPLE.

"I don't believe that we will ever be able to change the minds of men in terms of how they perceive women and aging," Anderson toldInStylein March.

“I’ve never felt more alive, in my skin, clear-headed, purposeful, free of self-judgment," Anderson also said in the campaign.

In the same interview withInStyle, Anderson said that she's made "bolder and bolder choices" with age, gaining confidence with experience. “In truth, I feel like I have gained, not lost...gained perspective, confidence, wisdom, and definitely, if not more than ever, the desire to say fuck off...I’m not going anywhere," she elaborated.

A woman revealed that men match with her on dating apps just to tell her she should lose weight

NEED TO KNOW

• Libby Rose Martin said she finally clapped back after a guy sent her one particularly cruel message

• Martin hopes her experience reminds other women that online bullying “says more about them than it does about you"

A woman clapped back at a man who matched with her on adating appjust to tell her she needed to lose weight.

Libby Rose Martin said she joined an online dating app in 2025 in the hopes of finding romance — but she’s seen her fair share of body-shaming and bullying instead, per Kennedy News and Media.

"I've had so many people commenting on my body, I get so sick of it,” said Martin of Kent, England. "A couple times I've had other men match me purely to comment on my weight.”

"I've had quite a few guys slide into my DMs saying, 'I'll be your personal trainer' or a few guys saying, 'I don't know what you're doing on here. You're never going to get a boyfriend with the way you look.' It's the way of the world, unfortunately,” she added.

However, after one particularly egregious incident in which a guy matched with Martin, 22, only to write, “You sure can take in calories” and that he was a “hero” just trying to “motivate” her, Martindecided to clap back.

“Just because I’mplus sizedoesn’t mean I’m unhappy in my body,” the fashion designer wrote back.

“Don’t EVER believe that you are respecting women if it’s only the ones you’re attracted to,” she continued, adding that she had been battling an eating disorder for many years.

“Imagine someone said this to your mom, your sister or even your daughter one day, how would you feel?” she asked.

While the man responded with more insults, Martin said she wasproud she spoke up for herself.

"I wasn't even attracted to him and didn't want to give him a chance. What I wanted to do was take that opportunity to educate him,” she explained. “I can't believe someone would go that far as to match with me out of spite and a way to put me in my place.”

"I think he saw someone who seemed quite genuine and vulnerable and thought he'd use that to his advantage to shame me and assumed I wasn't going to clap back," she continued.

"He's on a dating app and we're both single but … why is he single? It's probably because he can't keep a relationship because he's so narrow-minded in his ideas,” Martin said, adding that the man ultimately blocked her.

“I think he was surprised I wrote that much and was insightful. I feel proud that I was able to put my point across,” she said. "My main point was to educate, and I feel good that I showed him he didn't get to me. He thinks I'm vulnerable, and I'm not."

Martin went on to say that while dating can be hard for everyone, it can be even harderfor plus-sized people.

"I feel like we're such a marginalized community,” she said.

"Being plus-sized, I've been fetishized. I've had people say to me, ‘I'll have sex with you and do stuff with you, but I never want to be seen with you. I don't want anyone knowing that I'm seeing a big girl because it's embarrassing,’ ” she said.

"Skinny people do have the advantage and pretty privilege does exist. When I go out with my skinny friends, they get acknowledged by guys and I won't be,” Martin added.

The woman hopes her story helps remind other plus-sized women that bullying on dating apps says “more about them than it does about you.”

"You can choose to educate [the person] and you can choose to not. A lot of women will just hit the 'block' button and that's completely fine,” she said.

"They're single and probably single for that reason,” she added of the men.

Martin also hopes to remind others that happiness is not about a number on a scale.

"You're going to look back at your life and remember thatamazing trip you took, or that amazing summer you spent. You're not going to worry about you not [fitting] into a dress,” she said.

It was a star-studded celebration to wrap up weeks of filming on one of the most dramatic and remote islands in the Mediterranean.

But a post-production party thrown on the volcanic island of Stromboli forSir Mick Jagger, Dakota Johnson, Josh O’Connor and a host of other British and American celebrities has fallen foul of local bylaws and zealous officials. It was unceremoniously broken up by Italian police on Wednesday night.

The officers were sent in on the orders of the mayor of Lipari, a neighbouring island, which is the administrative centre of theAeolian archipelago, a scatter of impressive outcrops which lie between Calabria and Sicily.

He said the party contravened noise control regulations.

The intervention of the police was met, according to local media, with “perplexity mixed with hilarity” by 82-year-old Sir Mick and his co-stars, who included the Irish actress and singer Jessie Buckley, Saoirse Ronan, and Hollywood actressIsabella Rossellini.

Rossellini has a close personal connection to the island – her father Roberto directed the 1950 cult film Stromboli, which was shot on the island, and had an affair with its leading lady, the Swedish actress Ingrid Bergman, whom he later married.

Sir Mick and the cast and crew have spent the past few weeks filming an adaptation of an illustrated book called Three Incestuous Sisters by the American writerAudrey Niffenegger.

The book is about three sisters who live together in a house by the sea and vie for the romantic attentions of the lighthouse keeper’s son.

Sir Mick plays the lighthouse keeper in the gothic drama, which is directed by Italian director Alice Rohrwacher. His son is played by O’Connor, who received plaudits for his portrayal of Prince Charles in the Netflix drama The Crown.

While on Stromboli, Sir Mick reportedly stayed in a villa where Roberto Rossellini began his affair with Bergman.

Row between the two islands

The break-up of the film party this week prompted a row between thetwo islands.

Rosa Oliva, the head of the tourist office on Stromboli, said it was a mean-spirited decision by Riccardo Gullo, the mayor of Lipari.

Rather than being “valued and supported” after a tough winter of bad weather and suspended ferry services, Stromboli had been “penalised”.

The celebrities should have been welcomed with open arms, rather than subjected to a “punitive intervention”, she said.

“From the mayor of Lipari, one would have expected a welcome to the guests, or at least a greeting and a thank you for their crucial contribution to the Aeolian economy and their visibility. Our islands live off tourism,” she said.

It is not known whether the reaction of the Rolling Stones’ frontman was annoyance or amusement.

Either way, he left the island on Thursday by private helicopter.

What willStephen Colbert's legacy be?

The story of the quintessentially American comedian did not end on May 21, in spite of the funerary pomp and circumstance surroundingthe finale episode of "The Late Show" on CBS, which Colbert has hosted since 2015. There are miles yet before the 62-year-old Colbert sleeps,even if this act of his career has come to a close. It's already his second or third act to date, depending on how you count.

But inthe long story of Stephen Colbertthere will be an incendiary chapter aboutthis moment in cultural history,which started almost a year ago when he announced CBS had canceled "Late Show" and thus his daily tenure on our screens. That move threw an industry into confusion, drew both political backlash and celebration and has resulted in a monthlong last hurrah fromColbert and his many friendsthat has the country's zeitgeist on tenterhooks like it's the series finale of "Game of Thrones."

Colbert stepped out on the stage for his May 21 finale bearing the weight of a divided nation, tongue-wagging internet haters andpresidents former (Barack Obama) on his couchand current (Donald Trump) tweeting down his neck. He managed the finale with aplomb, ever the showman and professional.

The comedian started with ashort farewell acknowledging his crew, followed by a pretty typical monologue poking at the regular news (like sinkholes at airports) and his own news (even dolphins know he got canceled). He pivoted to his hyperactive regular segment "Meanwhile," which contained no less than one attempt to get CBS sued, two celebrity interruptions and one cackle-worthy sushi joke.

The final "Late Show" guest wasn't actually Pope Leo XIV as jokingly teased, butBeatles legend Paul McCartney, a major part of the history ofNew York's Ed Sullivan Theaterwhere "The Late Show" has taped for 34 years. Other hosts may have used an icon like McCartney to further shine the spotlights on themselves, but Colbert chatted with McCartney like it was any other night. The musician talked about his new album, his childhood and reminisced about performing on "The Ed Sullivan Show" in 1964, where he got his first impressions of America, the great democracy. McCartney told Colbert he hopes that the country will remain so.

There were bits about CBS and equal time. There were spit takes and more celebrity cameos than you could count. There was a wormhole. Colbert quoted his great literary love, "The Lord of the Rings." Former bandleader Jon Batiste returned to sing alongside Colbert (and current bandleader Louis Cato and Elvis Costello). There was great joy, which Colbert spoke about championing everyday with his crew and colleagues.

And mostly there was Colbert, with his awkward, goofy, endearing self. His brand of comedy – from his early career with improv group Second City and his "Daily Show" correspondent days to getting his own show "The Colbert Report" to a decade on network TV – was never about charm or fluff or flash.

Colbert's strength has always been his point of view, cutting satire, geekiness and heart. Anyone watching could feel the emotion radiating from the host all night, even as he pretended to be sucked into the abyss.

It was a silly, funny and affecting episode of television. By the time Colbert was singing "Hello, Goodbye" with McCartney, Costello, Cato and Batiste, he didn't need to say anything else.

You shouldn't expect anything less than confidence and grace from Colbert. He's the man who stayed in character as a conservative blowhard for over a decade, who made "Strangers with Candy" one of the weirdest and most-fun comedy shows on TV, and who told off yet another president (George W. Bush) to his face at Washington, D.C.'s biggest fête.

So no, Stephen Colbert is not done. "The Late Show" is done. Late-night TV might be done soon. But voices like Colbert don't disappear into the wind without a shiny wooden desk in front of them and a broadcast company behind them.

This chapter is over. Another one begins.
