 Mali renames colonial French street names Mali followed Burkina Faso and Niger on Wednesday in renaming streets and squares in its capital to get rid of their French colonial names, AFP reported. Streets bearing the names of members of France's colonial administration have been rebaptised in Bamako, according to a decree by the junta chief. Cedeao Avenue (the French acronym for the Economic Community of West African States or ECOWAS) is also now named after a new strategic confederation that Mali has formed with Burkina Faso and Niger – the Alliance of Sahel States (AES). In all, nearly 25 names have been replaced, among them boulevards, streets, squares and public establishments.

Tyra Banks to return to Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show runway after 19 years


Tyra Banks is back in the running toward becoming America’s next top Victoria’s Secret runway model.

The former Victoria’s Secret Angel and host of “America’s Next Top Model” will return to walk in the lingerie giant’s reinstated fashion show, set to take place in New York City on Oct. 15.

Banks, 50, and fellow Angel Gigi Hadid announced the news via a cheeky Instagram video Wednesday, which showed the latter, 29, donning a sparkly silver minidress and strutting into the lobby of a luxe hotel.


Behind the front desk was Banks, whose back was turned to show off her black silk letterman jacket that read, “Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show 2024.”

Hadid tapped the bell, but Banks was too busy sorting through invitations to the runway event.

After Hadid tapped the bell a second time, Banks flipped her long, caramel hair to turn and face the blond beauty.

At that moment, Chappell Roan’s “Femininomeno” started to play.

The “Tyra Banks Show” alum then flashed her signature “smize,” handed Hadid a gold envelope containing the coveted invite and said, “See ya there.”
