Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

As you ponder that mundane dilemma of whether or not to nip down to the office canteen for a hash brown or hold out until lunch, bear in mind that over in Vegas Will Smith is partying to Sisqo's Thong Song at a pool party.

The actor dropped in to a Palms Casino Resort pool party on Friday to see his son Trey DJ Ace Smith's set, but couldn't resist getting on stage himself.

Smith posted a selfie of his reunion with DJ Jazzy Jeff on Facebook, attracting 1.1 million Likes from fans, before taking requests from the crowd.

The duo soon launched into Summertime, Smith peeling off his shirt and sending the crowd predictably wild.

They also busted out Jump On It, with Smith noting how he hadn't even seen Jeff for seven months let alone performed with him.

The old adage 'what happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas' didn't turn out to be true, with members of the crowd posting hundreds of smartphone videos of the impromptu set online.

One taken by Smith himself saw him backed by the tanned flesh of the partygoers as Sisqo's Thong Song dropped.
