Nina's What's Trending - Amazon Bids for TikTok, First-Grader’s Diamond Ring, and New iPhone Emojis
In This Episode: Amazon Makes a Last-Minute Bid for TikTok – With a U.S. ban looming, Amazon steps in to try and acquire the popular app. First-Grader Proposes with a Real Diamond Ring – A young girl gets a surprising gift from her new “boyfriend.” New iPhone Emojis Drop – Apple sneaks in fresh ways to express yourself, including a very relatable exhausted face. Amazon Makes a Last-Minute Bid for TikTok As the U.S. prepares to ban TikTok over national security concerns, Amazon has jumped into the mix with a late bid to buy the platform. The offer was reportedly presented to Vice President JD Vance and Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick, as President Trump awaits a deal before Saturday’s deadline. Other major players, including Oracle, Blackstone, and several investment groups, are also in the running. Meanwhile, Perplexity AI has suggested a new approach—rebuilding TikTok’s algorithm to meet U.S. privacy standards. With time running out, will Amazon come out on top? First-Grader Asks Classmate to Be His Girlfriend with a Diamond Ring Young love took an expensive turn when a first-grader gifted his crush a real diamond ring to win her over. Allie Phillips shared the hilarious moment on TikTok after her daughter came home with the jewelry, announcing she had a new boyfriend. The boy, Trevor, had taken the ring from his great-grandmother without anyone knowing. Once his mom saw Phillips’ Facebook post, the family quickly got the ring back—hopefully along with a lesson for Trevor about borrowing valuables. iPhone Users Have New Ways to Express Themselves Apple’s latest iOS 18.4 update has quietly dropped eight new emojis, including a harp, a fingerprint, and a flag. But one in particular has caught everyone’s attention—the “exhausted” emoji. Featuring dark under-eye bags and an exasperated expression, it perfectly captures how many of us feel on a daily basis. If you’ve been waiting for a more accurate way to show your tiredness, Apple has you covered.
