00:00Good day, welcome to the Gulf News Update for Tuesday, May 2.

00:06Here are the top stories at this hour.

00:08US President Donald Trump opened the door to a future meeting with North Korea's Kim

00:14Jong-un, offering unusual praise for the globally ostracized leader at a time of surging nuclear

00:20tensions.

00:21Although the White House played down near-term prospects for such a meeting, Trump's comments

00:26marked a departure from his more unforgiving tone toward the North in recent weeks.

00:32It marked the latest fluctuation as Trump's administration struggles to articulate its

00:36policy for addressing the growing threat from North Korea's nuclear programme.

00:41Dubai International Financial Centre has signed a Memorandum of Understanding with Dubai Economy

00:47to allow companies operating within DIFC to obtain licences to operate in mainland Dubai.

00:54The MOU was signed by Esa Qasim, Governor of DIFC, and Sami Al-Khamzi, Director-General

01:00of Dubai Economy.

01:02The strategic partnership will allow non-regulated companies in the DIFC the opportunity to also

01:08operate as mainland businesses under a licence issued by Dubai Economy.

01:13The colour red made a dramatic show on Monday night in the Grand Parade of Fashion at the

01:18Met Gala, including co-chair Katy Perry's look, as did glittery gold and blue feathers

01:24on the back of Blake Lively.

01:27But many of the evening's highlights were courtesy of luminaries who channelled honoree

01:31Rei Kawakubo, including Rihanna encased in fluttery, fetal-like pieces by the Japanese

01:37designer.

01:39Rihanna gestured to the crowd from the carpet in her comme des garçons look with stagy

01:44pink on her cheeks.

01:45Her look was two pieces and a sliver of stomach peeked out from the freewheeling design.

01:50And finally, the weather.

01:51Today's high across the UAE will be 38 degrees Celsius, dropping to 27 degrees at night.
