'When you see, 'check in on your Black friends,' you're like, 'well, every Black person I know is my Black friend. Johnson said he had many conversations about the Chauvin verdict and next steps with Black friends and family.

“Sesame Street” didn’t start with Big Bird, Bert and Ernie. I was really hopeful to tell the adult story of 'Sesame Street,' the struggles and the dreams of these people who came together. “The origin is the most groundbreaking, the most experimental period of ‘Sesame Street.’ By reducing the vastness of it, we were able to make it stronger.”Making the movie opened “Sesame Street” in new ways for the filmmakers. “Jon’s like, ‘We’re going to put them together,’ and it was such a huge step.”Agrelo didn’t really know that at the very beginning, “Sesame Street” was directly aimed at Black inner-city children ages 3 to 5. We still have to open up our minds and our hearts, and this program is still very much a part of that.”

"Together Together" is everything you could want in a romantic comedy – minus the romance. We've come to expect the traditional kind of romantic comedy from the likes of Nora Ephron and Nancy Meyers classics, and newer hits like "Set It Up" and "Long Shot." In a typical romantic comedy they'd realize they're in love, raise the child together and live happily ever after. A relationship not continuing on over the horizon is seen as a failed relationship, Beckwith adds – a notion "Together Together" chips away at. The platonic rom-com formula can be more commonly found in movies where female friendships are tested amid growing pains like "Life Partners," "Frances Ha" and "Bridesmaids."

There's one problem with having a legit martial arts actor like Joe Taslim play the uber-villain Sub-Zero in the new "Mortal Kombat" movie: He was too fast for the mask. Legions of "Mortal Kombat" video game fans would demand their cold-harnessing, frozen-hearted assassin wear his signature mask in the film adaptation (in theaters Friday and streaming on HBO Max Friday) just like the 1995 "Mortal Kombat" film. The thoughtful Taslim answered our questions and explained his notorious alter-ego:Why Sub-Zero needs that rad maskThe origin story behind the assassin's face apparel is not explained in "Mortal Kombat." Taslim has pondered this brutal killing for Sub-Zero motivation and has a mask theory (Hint: It's not about looking rad). Not the pain Sub-Zero delivers to his foes, but his character's inner pain after he and his brother were abducted as children and trained to be assassins.

For film fans, choosing from the history of Oscar best picture winners offers a cornucopia of delicacies. So take the gun, leave the cannoli and strap in for the best 25 best picture winners, ranked. '12 Years a Slave' (2013)Steve McQueen's pre-Civil War drama is not an easy watch at all but still an important one. It still holds up, too, as both an exceptional romantic tale and a gripping drama about an improbable success story who doesn't throw away his shot. 'The Silence of the Lambs' (1991)“The Exorcist,” “Jaws” and “Get Out” didn’t wintheir respective best picture races, so “Lambs” is still the freakiest best picture ever, with an unnerving Anthony Hopkins as cannibalistic serial killer Hannibal Lecter and a tremendous Jodie Foster as FBI rookie Clarice Starling.

But Ledger's unforgettable role as the disturbed Joker earned a best supporting actor nod on the one-year anniversary of the actor's tragic death at age 28. Jodie Foster, as the film's rookie FBI agent tapping into the expertise of imprisoned, cannibalistic serial killer Hannibal Lecter, earned a best actress Oscar. The hit movie scored with audiences and Academy voters as Hawke earned a best supporting actor nomination, and Washington won best actor, his second Oscar. Bardem was awarded best supporting actor at the 2008 Oscars for the dark performance. But even Jones was honored to win best supporting actor, or, as he called it in his acceptance speech, "the finest award that any actor can receive."

Like everything else this past year, awards season was turned upside down by the COVID-19 pandemic: Screenings were virtual, acceptance speeches became Zoom calls and red carpets went the way of the dinosaurs. Best actress is still up for grabsTrying to read the tea leaves of the best actress race is harder than ever. But neither Davis, Day nor Mulligan were up for best actress at last Sunday’s BAFTAs, where the best actress winner has coincided with Oscar for the last seven years. McDormand could potentially ride a "Nomadland" Oscar sweep to her third acting win. We're guessing the Academy will choose to spread the love by anointing Day or Davis best actress, instead giving McDormand a best picture statue as a producer of "Nomadland."

John KatsilometesAssociated PressLAS VEGAS (AP) — Tempest Storm, the legendary burlesque star who blazed a trail for strip-tease artists for more than a half-century, has died. Storm died Tuesday at her Las Vegas apartment, her longtime friend, confidant and business partner Harvey Robbins, told the Las Vegas Review-Journal. Offered a choice between Sunny Day and Tempest Storm, the entertainment icon said, "Well, I said, I guess it might as well be Tempest Storm." Storm first performed in Las Vegas in 1951, at the Embassy Club in North Las Vegas. Storm moved to Las Vegas in 2005, about a year before her friend and fellow burlesque legend Dixie Evans moved the Burlesque Hall of Fame collection from her ranch in Helendale, California, to Las Vegas.

“Bachelor” spoiler king Reality Steve claims he’s sorry for making unwanted sexual advances toward a former contestant. The 45-year-old TV gossiper issued the mea culpa to Demi Burnett, 26, Wednesday, shortly after she accused him on Twitter of telling her about a creepy sex dream he had in a clumsy attempt at a come-on. “I am apologizing now knowing how uncomfortable I made you feel,” Steve, whose last name is Carbone, tweeted in response. Then you proceeded to tell me about a graphic sex dream you had of me,” she alleged. When a fan told Steve it seemed as if his apology was putting some of the blame on Burnett, he added, “I’m not blaming her at all.

Last week, Hayley Hasselhoff made history as the first plus-size model to cover a European edition of Playboy — but judging by her experience behind the scenes, the magazine still has work to do on the inclusivity front. “You know there’s still a long way to go when it comes to availability for fashion,” Hasselhoff said. “When it came down to actually fitting my figure in this lingerie, it’s all me. It came from my wardrobe.”Continued the curve model, “At the end of the day, I’m so used to it. “I am overcome with emotion around what this cover signifies for inclusivity and its greater purpose towards female empowerment,” she wrote in a lengthy Instagram post sharing her Playboy cover last week.

Two California cops stepped in to stop a third officer from roughing up a handcuffed female suspect in an incident caught on video. In the clip, which was obtained by TMZ, the police were detaining a handcuffed woman on the side of an Orange County road Wednesday, when she fell to the ground. One of the officers landed two right hooks to the woman’s face before his partners pushed him off the suspect and deescalated the situation. Three Minneapolis officers face charges of aiding and abetting second-degree murder as well as second-degree manslaughter, for not stopping Derek Chauvin from killing George Floyd. Chauvin faces up to 40 years in prison when he is sentenced for his Tuesday murder conviction.

Prince Philip played a critical part in molding his grandson, Prince William, for future service one day as king. "Philip was crucial in helping coach William as a future King," royal historian Robert Lacey and author of the biography "Battle of Brothers," told People magazine in the publication’s latest cover issue. When the time came for the Queen to talk business with William, Philip would quietly excuse himself because he didn't feel that the constitutional side of the Queen's job was something he wanted to interfere in," Lacey added.

Dylan Dreyer opened up about her road to motherhood on Katherine Schwarzenegger's Instagram series.

While dealing with a pregnancy loss and secondary infertility struggles, Dylan said her friends didn't know how to act around her. "So many women are going through their own fertility issues," Dylan wrote in a 2019 essay for TODAY Parents.

As one of country music’s only Black female stars, Mickey Guyton is determined to sing out against racial and gender inequality. “I had been trying to pursue a country career for like eight years, and constantly we were told — not only as a Black woman but as a woman — why we would fail in this industry,” Guyton said. And then I wrote ‘Black Like Me.’”Released in June 2020, “Black Like Me” is a reflection on the racism and biases Guyton had experienced throughout her life. “If you think we live in the land of the free, you should try to be Black like me.”Kevin Winter via Getty Images Mickey Guyton performs at the 2021 Grammy Awards in Los Angeles. Last November, the song nabbed a Grammy nomination for Best Country Solo Performance, making Guyton the first Black woman to be nominated in that category.

Lisa Christensen had no say in the final outcome of the trial for former Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin that ended Tuesday with his conviction on all three counts. On Thursday, Christensen spoke to reporters about her view from the bench, saying that she was happy with how the trial turned out. “I felt he was guilty,” she told “CBS This Morning.”She said it felt as if Chauvin “wasn’t taking the warnings” that Floyd’s life was at risk seriously. She told KARE 11 that her “heart broke a little bit” when Judge Peter Cahill told her she was actually an alternate juror. In her view the jurors took their responsibilities seriously and did not socialize much with one another between proceedings in the trial.

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — A man charged in connection with the fatal shooting of an Indianapolis pastor’s pregnant wife in 2015 has been sentenced to 29 years in prison under a plea deal in which he agreed to testify against two co-defendants. Jalen E. Watson, 27, pleaded guilty to one count of robbery and two counts of burglary stemming from the killing of Amanda Blackburn, court records show. Investigators have said the suspects saw Davey Blackburn, the woman’s husband, leave his house and began a burglary of the home. A neighbor reported hearing shots about 35 minutes after Davey Blackburn left. Amanda Blackburn died two days later.

(AP Photo/Chris Pizzello)It may be hard to believe that there are still many “firsts” left to check off after 93 years of the Academy Awards, and yet this year there were a handful for Asian actors and filmmakers. Steven Yeun (“Minari”) became the first Asian American actor to be nominated for best actor. Riz Ahmed (“Sound of Metal”) is the first Muslim to be nominated for best actor. It’s the first time that there are two best actor candidates of Asian heritage. They are fully complex human beings.”That hasn’t always been the case for Asian actors who have broken through to the Oscars.

Shane Smith, the co-founder of Vice Media, sold his Mediterranean-style Los Angeles home this week for $48.7 million, a record high for Santa Monica and the surrounding community. Mr. Smith, 51, along with interior designer Kerry Joyce, completely renovated the 14,000-square-foot home, Mansion Global reported in February, when the property was first listed for $50 million. The hacienda has a library with a secret onyx-walled bar, which is entered through a secret bookshelf, Mansion Global reported. Mr. Smith, who remains the executive chairman of Vice, purchased the estate in 2015 for $23 million, according to PropertyShark records. He called the home “a one-of-a-kind escape...an oasis for us and our family,” Mansion Global previously reported.

Twenty-four artists have donated their works to raise funds for the Massachusetts Museum of Contemporary Art (MASS MoCA), which is holding a sale online at Artsy from now until April 30 instead of its annual in-person benefit gala. The 19 works and five limited-edition multiples are expected to raise approximately US$400,000, which will help establish the Joe Thompson “Yes” Fund to support artists and art-making in all forms. Most of the 24 works donated for this auction have direct links to the museum, being created, exhibited, or workshopped at the museum. Fernández had her exhibition “As Above So Below” at MASS MoCA in 2014. Artsy is a New York-based online art brokerage, hosting websites for galleries as well as selling art for them.

Brian Kilmeade discussed the fatal shooting of Daunte Wright and Ma’Khia Bryant on Thursday on Fox & Friends (Fox news)A host on Fox News has suggested that those protesting against police violence towards Black Americans should never be allowed to call 911 again. The comments came as Fox & Friends discussed the fatal shootings of Daunte Wright and Ma’Khia Bryant on Thursday, as the presenters made reference to ongoing unrest over the killings. You should be barred from — anyone who says that, you are no longer allowed to use 911,” Brian Kilmeade responded. On the day the Chauvin verdict was announced, 16-year-old Ma’Khia Bryant was shot by police when officers were called to a disturbance in Columbus, Ohio, after reports of an attempted stabbing. Following the shooting, hundreds of protesters marched in the city on Tuesday night outside of the Columbus police headquarters.

For a few years in the late 1960s, the performance artist Herbert Khaury — known professionally as Tiny Tim — was ubiquitous on television, appearing on just about every variety show and talk show. Treated by many as a joke — or a freak — Tiny Tim was essentially a cult act who accidentally became a sensation. Johan von Sydow’s documentary “Tiny Tim: King for a Day” zips through Khaury’s story in just over an hour, leaving out too much to be called comprehensive. The rocket ride to stardom began in early 1968 on the hip sketch show “Laugh-In,” where Tiny Tim sang “Tiptoe Through the Tulips” while strumming a ukulele. Seeing Tiny Tim for a few seconds in a “Laugh-In” or “Tonight Show” retrospective makes him look like an inexplicable oddity.

And another show is NOT “The Handmaid’s Tale,” which returns to Hulu for its fourth season on Wednesday. She’s not just Wonder Woman; at times she’s Wile E. Coyote, walking out from under an anvil or a metal safe once again. AdvertisementWatching the new batch of episodes, I began to think of “The Handmaid’s Tale” as a genre series, and not in a good way. Rather than a nefariously ingenious nightmare world, one that frighteningly reflects off of the real world, the Gilead of “The Handmaid’s Tale” is now starting to seem more like Gotham City. Early on, the torture of “The Handmaid’s Tale” felt as though it was in service of the vision of a country driven to objectify and hurt women.

Six British actors are up for Oscars in 2021 for playing American characters. Riz Ahmed (“Sound of Metal”), Vanessa Kirby (“Pieces of a Woman”), Carey Mulligan (“Promising Young Woman”) and Gary Oldman (“Mank”) are nominated in the lead categories. Dominic West’s American accent was so iffy on Showtime’s “The Affair” that it seemed to vanish at random. Meanwhile, Americans have done bang-up accents playing British prime ministers on Netflix’s “The Crown.” John Lithgow was superb as Winston Churchill and Gillian Anderson just killed it as Margaret Thatcher. If the nominations were based on accents, perhaps only half this year’s British-as-American Oscar nominees would have made the cut.

Schur (“Parks and Recreation”) and Helms worked together on “The Office” and know what makes for appealing TV. But when they began to develop the concept of “Rutherford Falls,” they saw what was missing: Teller Ornelas. She was finishing a three-year contract as a “Superstore” writer and producer and planned to develop a Native American anthology series when the invitation came to join with Schur and Helms. “It’s very rare that you get the call in the beginning of the process where they say, ‘Hey, we have half an idea.

BIOGRAPHYTHE LETTERS OF THOM GUNNEdited by Michael Nott, August Kleinzahler and Clive Wilmer (Faber £40, 800 pp)Revered by trendy English teachers, the poet Thom Gunn was always cool. These letters certainly provide an eye-opening insight into the intoxicatingly (literally) liberal gay world of San Francisco in the years before, during and after the Aids epidemic. The pair would live together in San Francisco for the rest of Gunn’s life. What paradise life could be for a young, successful gay poet in San Francisco in those pre-Aids years! Gunn immortalised the terror of it all in his 1992 book of poems The Man With Night Sweats.

Jana Kramer's estranged husband, Mike Caussin, is 'out of the house' they shared in Nashville, Tennessee, just one day after revealing she filed for divorce. Although the reasons behind the couple's second split were not explicitly revealed at the time, Jana later confirmed rumors of infidelity in a statement to People. 'The very first time I found out Mike cheated on me was through a DM,' she said. Kramer later took to Instagram noting that he continues to receive treatment for his past sex addiction. Prior to Mike, Jana was married to Mike Gambino in 2004, and actor Johnathon Schaech from 2010-2011.

A New York City man orchestrated an entire fake 'emergency' — complete with a firetruck, firefighters, and a woman seemingly going into labor — to create an unforgettable proposal for his bride-to-be. Setting the scene: That day, he showed Amy a fake screenshot from the Citizen app showing that a woman in labor was a block awayShe's on it! 'One of the FDNY firemen's mother was a nurse for 30 years so he had a sort of sweet spot for it.' The NYPD and FDNY both agreed to be there, barring a real emergency that would take priority. It showed that a woman was in labor just a block away, so Amy and Mike walked over to check it out and see if Amy could offer assistance.

A Texas Subway employee has revealed what some of the chain's meat looks like before it makes it to the sandwich — and it's putting a few social media users off their lunch. 'Just to let y’all know how subway steak looks. TikTok users are undoubtedly interested in the candid look at Subway food, though the reactions to it have been mixed. After the success of the video, Travis uploaded a sequel that shows how Subway's tuna gets made. Once again, commenters seemed mostly unperturbed by how the food is prepared — but more upset about Travis' incorrect mask wearing.

A 'Karen' who called the police on bikini-clad TikTok stars claiming they were filming on 'private property' did not get the response she had wished for when the responding officer revealed his son was a fan and asked to pose for pictures with the influencers. The group appears to be doing a photoshoot with several women sporting bikinis and balaclavas and posing with a duck. The woman, known only as 'Karen', is apparently making a 911 call and a cop later arrives on the scene - only to take photos with the TikTok stars. The woman is heard telling the group they are on 'private property' and then mockingly urges them to keep filming because she wants to go 'viral.' The TikTok then features a photo showing the deputy fistbumping @tooturnttony in front of the Lamborghini and standing next to one of the women.

Vlogger Jeff Wittek has said he was left with a 'broken skull and face' after YouTuber David Dobrik swung him around on a rope attached to an excavator for a stunt. Wittek - a member of Dobrik's Vlog squad - had in June last year shared pictures of injuries, including a bruised eye, without detailing how he suffered them. Footage of the incident shows the moments before Wittek lands face down in the shallow water as those watching the stunt rush to help him. Dobrik already faced controversy in March of this year when a woman accused a former member of his Vlog squad of sexual assault. He addressed the accusations in a YouTube video, telling fans: 'Consent is something that's super, super important to me.

Kavanaugh wrote the SCOTUS opinion holding that juveniles can be sentenced to life without parole. Justice Brett Kavanaugh wrote what Mark Joseph Stern, Slate's staff writer covering courts, called the "dishonest and barbaric" majority opinion (pdf). Today's decision is pretty much the worst case scenario for opponents of juvenile life without parole (myself included). "Children are constitutionally different from adults for purposes of sentencing," Sotomayor wrote, referencing studies that have confirmed "juveniles are less mature and responsible than adults." — Elie Mystal (@ElieNYC) April 22, 2021"Jones should know that, despite the court's decision today, what he does in life matters," wrote Sotomayor.

The reputation for rampant racism at Fox News has been well established over many years. On Thursday morning Fox News provided additional evidence of their embrace of overt bigotry. Next to James, Fox News placed Democratic Rep. Maxine Waters, a favorite target of Fox. Neither James nor Waters ever incited violence (unlike Donald Trump and his Fox News shills). Fox News ran numerous segments on these subjects that they repeatedly - and falsely - described as "putting a target" on the backs of police.

Ted Cruz has been accused of a lot of things: being the Zodiac Killer; being from Canada; being a churlish Sea Monkey that grew out of control in a secret Area 51 lab before escaping into the forest with a family-size bag of Bugles and a sixer of Zima; being the son of a key JFK assassination conspiracist; spending the past four years hiding in Donald Trump’s Underoos like a colicky baby wallaby; having the personality of a clammy loaf of reduced-salt Wonder Bread; running away to Cancun when his home state was in crisis; having a black, bloodless knot of a heart the size of a runty chickpea. The list goes on. But one thing few people have ever accused Cruz of is forthrightness. Case in point: Republicans, once again, are trying to pretend the stuff you saw them do just a few short years ago—stuff like run up the deficit and block Barack Obama’s federal and Supreme Court nominations—never really happened.

By the 1990s it had become an international celebration, and on Earth Day 2020, over 100 million people around the world observed the 50th anniversary in what is referred to as the "largest online mass mobilization in history." The holiday was originally suggested by peace activist John McConnell who proposed using the spring equinox as a day to honor the Earth and the concept of peace. Denis and his staff quickly developed the event beyond the original idea for a teach-in, and the first Earth Day was born. My high school art teacher heard about it and encouraged students to make artwork to celebrate the occasion. On the same day in April 1970, iconic striptease artist, Gypsy Rose Lee, died in Los Angeles and Melania Knavs (later, Trump) was born in Yugoslavia.

As many were celebrating the Minneapolis jury’s decision to convict Derek Chauvin for his murder of George Floyd while others insisted that a conviction would not build a more just world, Ma’Khia died in a local hospital. Two weeks before Hill’s killing, Columbus police killed 23-year-old Casey Goodson, Jr. as he returned home from running family errands. But that’s not what policing offers Black girls like Ma’Khia. We are fighting to build a world where Ma’Khia’s needs, and the needs of the girls around her, are met. We are fighting for a world in which Ma’Khia could still be making TikTok videos and showing off her hair-styling techniques.

She already made history as the first woman of color nominated in the category at the Academy Awards. If she wins, she'll become only the second woman ever to earn best director, after Kathryn Bigelow ("The Hurt Locker") in 2010. Speaking to USA TODAY in February, Zhao – who's next helming Marvel's "Eternals" – humbly shrugged off any mention of potential milestones. "What I like about Spike is that he doesn't really sugarcoat things," Zhao says. But Zhao also channeled her "inner self through Fern," namely her constant desire to "see what's beyond the horizon."

CNN anchor Brianna Keilar was pilloried on social media Thursday after referring to the girl who was nearly stabbed by Ma'Khia Bryant Tuesday as merely someone who "was so close to Ma'Khia when she was shot." In an interview with left-wing author Ibram X. Kendi, Keilar appeared to agree with his opinion that the Columbus, Ohio police officer who shot the 16-year-old Bryant inappropriately used deadly force.

A publisher has paused its support for a new book about novelist Philip Roth after its author, Blake Bailey, was accused of rape and sexual misconduct by multiple women. In light of them, we have decided to pause the shipping and promotion of ‘Philip Roth: The Biography’ pending any further information that may emerge,” W.W. Norton & Company said in a statement to NBC News on Thursday. Backlash was swift, as the writer was dropped from his literary agency, the Story Factory, and lost the support of his publisher, The Los Angeles Times reported. The literary biographer received a Guggenheim Fellowship to work on his biography of Cheever, which later won the National Book Critics Circle Award in Biography in 2009. Bailey, who spent extensive amounts of time with Roth, began working on his biography in 2012, according to The Associated Press.

MILWAUKEE (AP) — Attorney General Josh Kaul plans to launch an investigation into clergy sexual assault across Wisconsin’s five Catholic dioceses, perhaps as early as next week. “I hope you will welcome that review.”Clergy sexual abuse survivors and their allies have long demanded that Kaul open an investigation. Except for Superior, all Wisconsin Catholic dioceses along with St. Norbert Abbey and the Society of Jesus have published lists of clergy with “credible” allegations against them. Clergy sexual abuse in Wisconsin has come under renewed scrutiny since a man who accused three priests from St. Norbert Abbey in DePere of sexually abusing him in the 1980s killed himself last year. Representatives from the other dioceses and St. Norbert Abbey didn’t immediately respond to messages from the Journal Sentinel on Thursday.

CNN, with an estimated 4.03 million viewers, had the biggest audience, according to Nielsen.

Back in 2014, CBS commissioned a pilot for “How I Met Your Dad,” a spinoff of its hit sitcom “How I Met Your Mother.” The pilot starred Greta Gerwig and Drew Tarver, and it was narrated by Meg Ryan, but CBS didn’t fall in love, and no other outlet picked it up.

Hulu has ordered 10 episodes of “How I Met Your Father,” starring Hilary Duff as a woman telling her son how she met his dad and describing her group of close friends.

The scenes set in an aeroplane cockpit appear to have been shot in somebody’s bathroom. The flying saucers themselves were probably improvised out of abandoned pieces of tin cutlery.

Diversity and representation are both a moral imperative and, according to a new study, an economic necessity for Hollywood. Viewers are demanding that the pop culture they consume better reflects America’s diversity, meaning that when Hollywood doesn’t prioritize accurate representation, it’s leaving money on the table and hurting its bottom line.

Their newest report examined global box office revenue and viewership numbers of the top 185 films released in theaters and on major streaming platforms in 2020.

Rather, as an open Anna (Patti Harrison) spills her proclivity for thieving pens and her experience of putting her baby up for adoption while in high school to a perplexed Matt (Ed Helms), she’s interviewing to become his surrogate. For Matt, Anna represents his third attempt at fatherhood — his previous eight-year relationship came to naught and Beckwith’s slight script never divulges the other try.

Nero’s notorious reputation is to be rehabilitated by the British Museum as curators reveal how the emperor was traduced by “cancel culture” in the Roman Empire. Known for being the emperor who fiddled while Rome burned, Nero’s brutal reign between 54 and 68 AD included persecuting Christians and matricide, the killing of his mother.

Roman statue warsDr Thorsten Opper, Ancient Rome curator at the British Museum, told The Telegraph: “It’s weird how topical it has suddenly become in the last few years. “Statue wars is perhaps most appropriate, what we saw with Colston’s statue in Bristol and various monuments in the US.

Les McKeown, who has died aged 65, was the frontman in the Bay City Rollers, the Scottish boy band that took the 1970s music world by storm with Rollermania; his vocals were first heard in 1974 on Remember (Sha-La-La-La), which shot to No 6 in the UK charts, heralding the start of the band’s most successful period. From the outset McKeown embraced the rock’n’roll lifestyle. “The sex, drugs and booze … were all on tap,” he wrote of life with his previous band, Threshold.

The former Lukiskes prison was used as a set in the filming of Netflix drama "Stranger Things"Advertising Read moreVilnius (AFP)Lithuania is searching for investors to redevelop a historic former prison used by Tsarist Russia and Nazi Germany which has more recently served as a Netflix film set and concert venue. Built in 1902, the sprawling Lukiskes prison was closed in 2019 and was used in the fourth season of the Netflix drama "Stranger Things".

New TV series Peacock's "Rutherford Falls" (now streaming) will increase Native American representation in media both on- and offscreen. More Native American series are coming soon: FX on Hulu's "Reservation Dogs" from Sterlin Harjo and Taika Waititi, a comedy following four Native American teenagers; Netflix's "Spirit Rangers," an animated series about three Native American siblings; and NBC's "Sovereign," a drama in development that's centered on an Indigenous family. All this follows political representation moments, too: The first two Native American women were elected to Congress in 2018; Deb Haaland was just confirmed as the first Native American presidential Cabinet secretary. "Rutherford," Helms says, "just feels like a meaningful moment in Native American representation, and I'm very humbled and proud to be a part of it." Echo Hawk says that captured the world's attention and shined a light on Native Americans, hastening an effort to better reflect underrepresented voices.

"Together Together" is everything you could want in a romantic comedy – minus the romance. We've come to expect the traditional kind of romantic comedy from the likes of Nora Ephron and Nancy Meyers classics, and newer hits like "Set It Up" and "Long Shot." In a typical romantic comedy they'd realize they're in love, raise the child together and live happily ever after. A relationship not continuing on over the horizon is seen as a failed relationship, Beckwith adds – a notion "Together Together" chips away at. The platonic rom-com formula can be more commonly found in movies where female friendships are tested amid growing pains like "Life Partners," "Frances Ha" and "Bridesmaids."

London (CNN) Scottish singer Les McKeown, who achieved global superstardom in the 1970s as the lead vocalist of tartan-garbed pop titans the Bay City Rollers, has died, his family confirmed Thursday.

Williams praised his decision at the time, tweeting that she was “so proud.”“I know Olympia will be too,” she added.

Lauren Beatty is Grey, an emerging pop star who's starting work on her second album. She's also battling visions of turning into a werewolf, and being a cog in the music industry machine is probably more than enough to cause hallucinations of becoming a monster. She is summoned to work with Vaughn (Greg Bryk), a former boy-bander whose career went dark after he was accused of murdering his musical protégé. There are a few things holding "Bloodthirsty" back, however: Grey never operates or fills the room like a pop star of any magnitude, and Vaughn doesn't have the swagger of even an aging boy-band member. "Bloodthirsty" never becomes the savage music industry satire it could be.

The six Oscar nominations this year for Sound of Metal make it the most broadly acclaimed film on the subject of deafness in 35 years. Even so, it’s on the level of representation – not just in front of the camera but behind it – that Sound of Metal has triggered some disappointment among deaf activists.

He’s a modern Dylan, tracing the arc of popular culture through from when video killed the radio star, reality killed the video star and reality TV star Donald Trump killed reality with his “alternative facts”. It contains the obvious gag that Lazarus couldn’t make a comeback without Jesus (Jones couldn’t without Johns).

A new book has revealed the rise of 'sneaky sexism' brands use to trick women into buying their products.

Darnell Hunt, co-author of the Hollywood Diversity Report, said it was "encouraging to see skyrocketing numbers this year in front of the camera" for women and people of color. "People of color and women made tremendous strides among film leads since the last report, cementing 2020 as a watershed moment for diversity in this important employment arena," the report said. And at nearly 48 percent, lead roles played by female actors were also just shy of proportionate representation. With theaters closed for much of last year, film consumption dramatically shifted from multiplexes and art house cinemas to streaming platforms. That progress follows efforts in recent years including the #OscarsSoWhite campaign which criticized the Academy's habit of honoring white actors, and drew attention to its mainly white male membership -- which is now being reformed.

"I didn't know if he was going to be guilty on all counts but I would have said guilty," Christensen added.

She also commented on how she made eye contact with Chauvin several times during the trial, saying it made her "pretty uncomfortable."

NBPA Executive Director Michele Roberts and NBA Commissioner Adam Silver also released a joint statement about the conviction. James deleted the tweet shortly after posting it and explained that he sent it out of "ANGER." Ohio state law allows police to use deadly force to protect themselves or others, and investigators will determine whether this shooting was such an instance.

Burton is among the final group of guest hosts for the quiz show, which lost its longtime host Alex Trebek to cancer last November and has put off announcing his successor.

Burton is among the final group of guest hosts for the quiz show, which lost its longtime host Alex Trebek to cancer last November and has put off announcing his successor.

He recalled that when Glenn Close was asked to play Cruella, she asked him whether he thought she should do it: “I said, ‘When in our entire careers have we been given carte blanche to completely go over the top? Wouldn’t that be fun?’ ”For the first Dalmatians film, Powell, working with his longtime collaborator, the costume maker Barbara Matera, created eight costumes for Cruella, ranging from Chanel-inspired tweed to beaded organza gowns, mostly featuring animal motifs and accompanied by lavish quantities of fur, feathers or snakeskin. “When we started,” Powell recalled, “Glenn said the most chilling thing to me.

Is this really our job?” Adds MacDowell, laughing: “My girls and I have always enjoyed fashion together.” And what better way to enjoy it than this? Taking a break from their shoot, MacDowell and Qualley here share the story behind their unbreakable mother-daughter bond, the experience of shooting the campaign together, and the surprising changes lockdown has imposed on their approach to style. How has the experience of getting dressed up to the nines again been today?

Photo: SplashNewsNew-mom Emily Ratajkowski stepped out yesterday in a classic, relaxed warm-weather look. True to her brand, she wore a cropped sheer shirt from her own label Inamorata (after all, Emrata’s signature is a midriff-baring look.) Ratajkowski wore a pair of dark-wash, low-slung carpenter pants from Dickies, a tried-and-true pair that she has sworn by for quite some time now, even pre-pregnancy. The look, loose and summer-ready, feels like the quintessential late ’90s and early ’00s cool girl get-up. In fact, a loose pant and crop top union feels right in step with the beginnings of summer.

But one actor who’s managed to shine through it all is Leslie Odom Jr., a breakout red carpet star and a relative newcomer to best dressed lists. Yermagyan began working with Odom Jr. back at the 2018 Tony Awards, when he dressed him in a classic, black pinstriped suit. “We wanted to make a statement with each look,” Yermagyan says. Yermagyan’s personal favorite was the two Versace suits—both in bright colors—that he styled Odom Jr. in at the BAFTAs. “The men he has portrayed have an irreverence to them and buck the system,” says Yermagyan of Odom Jr.’s work.

Robyn in particular came under attack from fans, who called her a total hypocrite. The criticisms focused upon Robyn involved a recollection of Robyn's desire to move to Flagstaff in the first place. Fans saw Robyn unwilling to uproot in return, and called her out, accusing her of hypocrisy. The whole issue with that conflict was that everyone but Christine didn't want to move. But many fans felt like Robyn was being the most hypocritical.

Backstage, Jovi and Brandon shared their doubts about Amira's version of what happened in Mexico. "Like, I've traveled to a lot of places, to a lot of very sketchy places," Jovi emphasized. It was the assertions that Jovi and Brandon made that rubbed fans the wrong way, however. Jovi and Brandon may face many challenges in their lives, but they are not marginalized for their race. That said, some fans think that Andrew and Amira's weird quarantine plan was what got Amira detained.

Unless it is crack, Don’t don’t do that s**t!! “Vinny Guadagnino your [sic] corny just tell the guy u want his wife already it’s getting old bro,” one person commented. “Vinny Guadagnino kinda stupid for you to post that comment on !chris_e_piss_e page. “Vinny Guadagnino you just bitter,” a third chimed in. “Vinny Guadagnino, cornball at its finest.

It's been quite the evolution for Kourtney Kardashian and Travis Barker over the past several weeks, hasn't it? Everyone out there has seen Kourtney Kardashian, right?!? The mother of three just took to her own social media page and asked a telling question:ROUGH SEX: LOVE IT OR LEAVE IT? They were kissing a lot in front of other beach goers and maybe planning some sort of rough sex for the night ahead. We're just saying what Kourtney and Travis continue to say about each other... over and over and over.

This past Tuesday night, MTV aired the final episode of Teen Mom OG Season 8. And now we must ask ourselves the following question:Did MTV also air the final episode of Teen Mom OG... period? Teen Mom OG has also come under fire for continuing to employ Amber Portwood after her arrest last July for domestic violence. And these Teen Mom OG cast members still generate plenty of social media buzz, which does mean a lot for shows these days. The ratings for Teen Mom OG simply haven't been the same since she was fired.

Jenelle Evans has always tried to live her life as an open book. As part of that, Jenelle has been talking about some deeply personal things on TikTok. Jenelle said her dreams were about Teen Mom. Different things affect people in different ways, of course, but Jenelle has undoubtedly been through some extremely dark experiences. This time around, she's launching The Jenelle Evans Podcast, and so far we only know the name of the podcast, its logo, and that it's "launching very soon."

This week, Matt Kirschenheiter agreed to plead guilty in his domestic assault case. On Tuesday, April 20, Matt pleaded guilty to one felony count of domestic battery with corporal injury of a spouse. "Your eyes were completely black, and you were not Matt," Gina described. She then acknowledged: "But it was.”“It’s taken me a lot of time, self-care, and therapy to work through what happened that night," Gina described. All of this stems from a harrowing attack in June of 2019 in which Matt assaulted Gina and threatened her life.

For months now, we've been hearing rumors of major strife within the marriage of Jinger Duggar and Jeremy Vuolo. Jinger and Jeremy have backed away from the spotlight a bit, but unfortunately for them, they're not in a position to quit social media entirely. Not only that, but Jinger and Jeremy have styled themselves as the most down-to-earth and relatable members of the extended Duggar clan. “I think it was a way for Mr. Duggar to get to know me,” he said. … You have to know who you are.”So it sounds like Jinger and Jeremy are planning to really "go there" in their memoir -- but even in moments of extreme candor, they dare not disparage the esteemed "Mr.

There was a time when it seemed that Jinger Duggar had the healthiest marriage of all her siblings. She and Jeremy Vuolo didn't seem to concern themselves with the opinions of Jim Bob or Duggar-obsessed social media commenters. Jinger and Jeremy have encountered their fair share of ups and downs in recent years, that's for sure. Many fans are convinced that Jinger and Jeremy have quit the podcast because of criticism of the rude manner in which Jeremy behaves toward his wife. In addition to stepping away from their podcast, it seems that Jinger and Jeremy are considering quitting Counting On, the show that made them famous.

The Duggar family has been more secretive than ever lately. The folks who watch the Duggar clan most closely have concluded that Anna is pregnant with her seventh child. And in case you were wondering what sort of content is considered suitable for Duggar family movie night. "Anna is definitely pregnant, she's wearing black and her face is puffy," another commenter observed. Normally, we'd assume that if Anna is pregnant she'd be making an announcement sometime soon.

We hope that it's a good one ... because one member of Bachelor Nation claims that it will be the last. "But also … I think there won’t be another Bachelor season,” Blake, who turns 32 this week, added. “I think it’ll end after Michelle," Blake speculated, and was the first to admit that this was very much a "hot take." “Whether you think it’s right, wrong, whatever your stance is on the [Chris Harrison scandal]," Blake explained. If the Bachelor franchise dies, it will have been killed by racism - both within and without.

Okay, so you may have noticed that there's a little bit of a Bachelorette spoiler in that headline above. According to a new report from Reality Steve, The Bachelor spoilers and The Bachelorette spoilers guru:Michelle Young will also be the new Bachelorette! "Michelle’s Bachelorette season will film sometime after BIP films (most likely all of July) and air later on in the fall," he added. Anyway, the important thing here is that fans are in for more of Michelle Young, who might be the most beloved contestant in the history of the franchise. But when she does take the reins as the new Bachelorette, perhaps she'll be the star that a jittery Bachelor Nation can unify behind.

Sister Wives viewers have known for ages now that Kody Brown is an awful husband. In the end, as we documented last year, Christine did accompany Ysabel and Sister Wives fans jumped all over Kody for not doing the same. A third jumped in as follows:"The fact that Kody thought Christine wanting Ysabel to get this surgery because of severe pain was an attempt to manipulate Kody is f***ing disgusting. Kody has been receiving tons of crap ever since the finale aired and folks across the country got to see how terribly he treated his sister wives. And will Sister Wives even come back?

Another season of Teen Mom OG is coming to an end. As The Ashley's Reality Roundup reported this week, Teen Mom OG has been renewed by MTV for another season. Before we get into the current numbers, here's a bit of history to provide some perspective:When it premiered back in December of 2009, Teen Mom OG (known simply as Teen Mom in those days) became an overnight sensation. By the end of its first season, Teen Mom was attracting an audience of 3.6 million. The season finale of Teen Mom Season 2 drew in an astonishing 5.6 million viewers.

Kourtney Kardashian and Scott Disick have been broken up for several years. Scott and Kourtney have three kids together, of course, so it makes sense that they would still be in regular contact. It's important to note that the scene was filmed before Kourtney started dating Travis Barker. Disick goes on to explain that his mind is only at ease during the times when Kourtney is not in a relationship. Insiders say Kourtney is head over heels for Travis, a partner who possesses the maturity that Scott always lacked.

It will continue to take a long time for Jill Duggar to fully deprogram from her family's cult. Jinger Duggar and Jeremy Vuolo spoke to Us Weekly about recently touching base with Jill and Derick. “They’re working through some things,” Jeremy characterized. Jeremy stressed that he and Jinger are "definitely hoping" that the Duggar family resolve things. But clearly, many in Jill's family just want their sister back, to spend time with her again.

On March 30, Shah was arrested for conspiracy to commit wire fraud in connection with telemarketing, and conspiracy to commit money laundering. “In actual reality and as alleged, the so-called business opportunities pushed on the victims by Shah, Smith, and their co-conspirators were just fraudulent schemes, motivated by greed, to steal victims’ money. Which, in her case, means being a full-time cast member on The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City. The second season of this prrogram does not yet have a release date, so fans will have to wait to see exactly how the Salt Lake City housewives reacted to the news. But Jen Shah almost definitely bilked senior citizens out of their hard-earned retirement money.

For reasons understood only by him, Andrew Kenton stormed out of the 90 Day Fiance Tell All. We saw Andrew enjoy a solo vacation while Amira had to return to France after her mysterious detention in Mexico City. Then, we saw Amira once again decide to try to get to the US another way. According to Amira, Andrew spent the night before her flight pressuring her to commit to having kids right away. If Andrew wanted to get his story out, he should have used the Tell All when he could, not Instagram.

In our very first look at a new season of Little People, Big World, we get a sneak peek at how Amy Roloff, Matt Roloff and their kids are adjusting to life amid the COVID-19 pandemic.

Courtesy of Kim Kardashian/InstagramConsidering Kim Kardashian is one of the most famous people in the world, it’s no surprise her bank account comes with a lot of zeros. In fact, as of 2021, the longtime Keeping Up With the Kardashians star officially has an estimated net worth of $1 billion, according to Forbes.

Reality star Jill Duggar, along with her husband Derick Dillard, has garnered many headlines of late for being critical of her parents. In the videos, Duggar explains to the camera that she and the boys are playing an obedience game. "Jill has a lot of cult brainwashing she still needs to work through!

Or how the kids are feeling... how they're reacting ... and ... well... basically anything at all outside of a few pictures?

If you watched part one of the reunion, you know that Maci Bookout's husband, Taylor McKinney, did not hold back when it came to describing her ex, Ryan Edwards. I think he’s shown the Edwards that he’s found his voice. Ryan refused to take the stage with Taylor and Maci, so he was spared having to immediately respond to that tirade. But it should come as no surprise that he responded later, in an interview with UK tabloid The Sun -- and like Taylor, Ryan did not hold back. "I think Taylor is a punk b--ch," he told the outlet.

Zhao won the Golden Globe for best director earlier this year as well as the top directing prize from the Directors Guild of America.

"Promising Young Woman" has garnered five Academy Award nominations, including best picture, best director and best original screenplay.

‘I think he got what he deserved’: Derek Chauvin isn’t getting much sympathy from people who have had run-ins with him … Hollywood loves a reboot. We’ll see how well it can reboot the Oscars in pandemic times … This guy is dressed as a bear and he’s walking from Los Angeles to San Francisco

"We are here to make a case for why cinema matters," said Stacey Sher, one of the trio of Oscars producers. Netflix Inc's (NFLX.O) 1930s Hollywood drama "Mank" leads nominations with 10 nods in a best picture list that includes 1960s courtroom saga "The Trial of the Chicago 7," also from Netflix. Nevertheless, there are lot of downer topics (and) many of them are smaller films, slower films," said Pete Hammond, chief film critic for Deadline Hollywood. While Netflix clinched a leading 35 nominations, awards watchers say it may again end up seeing the top prize - best picture - slip away. "Nomadland," the Searchlight Pictures (DIS.N) film about the American van-dwelling community, has picked up most of the big awards leading up to the Oscars.

LONDON (AP) — British music’s leading prize night next month will feature an audience of 4,000 people, in what will be the first major indoor music event in the country to welcome back a live audience since the coronavirus pandemic erupted more than a year ago. Organizers said they are giving away 2,500 tickets to essential workers from the Greater London area to mark their work through “the difficult times” of the pandemic. “Not only will we be celebrating the brilliant music and artists that have helped us through the pandemic, but we hope it will provide a path for the return of live music that fans and artists have so sorely missed,” said Geoff Taylor, the chief executive of the British Phonographic Industry and of the Brit Awards. “We’re buzzing about the show and working closely with government,” he added. ADVERTISEMENTThe announcement comes after the Grammy Awards hosted a 2021 edition in Los Angeles, which saw nominees and performers, including Harry Styles and Beyonce, attend in person but without a live audience.

The verdict in the Chauvin case might not be quickly repeated, even as the list of those killed at the hands of police grows. The day after Bryant was fatally shot, at least two other people were also killed by police in the United States. On Wednesday morning, a deputy fatally shot and killed a Black man while serving a search warrant in eastern North Carolina. And in the San Diego suburb of Escondido, police said an officer fatally shot a man who was apparently striking cars with a metal pole. The boy, who was Latino, appeared to drop a handgun moments before the officer shot him.

"I believe #FreeBritney is a civil rights issue, a human rights issue, a women's rights issue.

But Jamie believes every single decision he has made has been in her best interest," Vivian Lee Thoreen, Jamie Spears' attorney, told CNN shortly after "Framing Britney Spears" debuted.

SHAWNEE — Amber DuBoise-Shepherd often enjoys the rare pleasure of introducing children to Oklahoma's only mummies, who reside at the Mabee-Gerrer Museum of Art.

I'm constantly reading books about different tribal people and tribal sovereignty ... and just learning as much as I can," she said. So, I always want to make sure I'm trying to be as conscious and accurate as I can and not be disrespectful."

Or is the first act a film (or a dream, or a reverie) inspired by what happened in the second? Now there is a different situation, different people, and a different crescendo of sexual unease. We are seeing a very dysfunctional family here – Black Bear has something of Truffaut’s Day for Night, as well as Alvy Singer in Annie Hall, directing theatrical scenes based on his own life and never quite satisfied. Or is Black Bear suggesting that, as the star, Allison has the power; she is directing what happens, especially as she is able to make script alterations at the last moment. And the Black Bear of the title inevitably takes more than one form: a nickname, a metaphor for sexual danger, an actual flesh-and-blood bear.

Ever since Sandra Bullock MacGyver’d her way from mid-orbit chaos back down to earth in Alfonso Cuarón’s show-stopping thriller Gravity, we’ve seen a rise in briskly efficient sci-fi competency porn. It’s a subgenre of films working off the thrill of watching high-stakes problem-solving, of professionals using their reality-rooted smarts to deal with fantastical situations. There’s something satisfyingly straight-to-the-point about the film, from musician turned director Joe Penna, following up his breakout debut Arctic with another no frills survival tale. Can Collette’s commander work with on-the-ground support to find the science to save them? We’re left a little adrift, the film ending less on a high or low and more of a huh?

“It really was an intellectual friendship,” Truman Capote said of his 40-year relationship with the playwright Tennessee Williams. Their lifelong friendship – and occasionally bitter rivalry – is the subject of Lisa Immordino Vreeland’s artful documentary, Tennessee & Truman: An Intimate Conversation. Parsons is at home with his husband, Todd, in New York, while Quinto is in Ojai, California, with a noisy German shepherd puppy. ‘There’s a beautiful, brutal honesty about them’ ... Tennessee Williams and Truman Capote. Both men changed their names, for example: Capote taking his stepfather’s name, Williams adopting “Tennessee” as opposed to plain old Thomas.

He was one of most influential African American writers of the 20th century. The Man Who Lived Underground could hardly be more current in the America of 2021, given its focus on race and police violence. Its belated publication happens to coincide with the end of the trial of Derek Chauvin, the Minneapolis police officer accused of murdering George Floyd, an African American man. The novel follows Fred Daniels, an African American man framed by police for a double murder he did not commit. I don’t think you need to to be a literary critic to get it.

Ruth Madoff, the couple’s two sons and Bernard Madoff’s brother Peter all worked for the company. In the new book Madoff Talks, based on unprecedented access to Madoff and other key players, business journalist Jim Campbell suggests it may never be possible to disentangle the extent of the family’s knowledge from the web of lies Madoff spun. Madoff told the author he was “a product of the corrupt culture of Wall Street” and was himself a “constant critic” of that culture, which he confessed “certainly sounds strange coming from me”. Ruth Madoff told Campbell that she first heard of the fraud at a family meeting on the afternoon of 10 December 2008 when Madoff confessed his crime. Ruth Madoff now lives in the $3.8m waterfront Connecticut mansion of her former daughter-in-law, according to the New York Post.

Sacheen Littlefeather (1973)It used to be said that cool people don’t turn up to accept their Oscars. In 2018, she delivered it for the first time, and it was five minutes long, so maybe the Oscars had a point. As such, you could pick any of the times they appeared onstage together and accurately label it as historically awkward. And you will remember Sheena Easton’s performance of the theme song at the Oscars as the opposite of going back to basics. Ray Parker Jr’s theme was nominated for best song in 1985, but his performance bore zero resemblance to anything even remotely connected to Ghostbusters.

In a teaser clip for an upcoming episode Kim enlists Addison to teach her a TikTok dance and reveals that she actually finds the whole thing just a little intimidating. Now that the Kardashians have stopped questioning Addison about her relationship with Kourtney, it seems like they've welcomed her into the fold with open arms, and in the latest episode of KUWTK Addison even gives Kim a little dance lesson.

The CluesPlease take a hot sec to review the official clue video from episode 4:This content is imported from YouTube. He also initially guessed Jay-Z after hearing the “king crab” clue (um, no way, my man), while Nicole Scherzinger guessed Kanye West (and again, nope). Apparently, performing on Masked Singer reminds the Crab of…his childhood?! And let’s not forget Bobby’s 2012 album Masterpiece, which could possibly explain the Mona Lisa inclusion, and his 1986 album King of Stage, which could explain the “king crab” clue.

The bad news: The Masked Singer has gone ahead and added another wild card contestant to the mix. the last furry freak to haunt your nightmares from season 5, so we should be safe…until season 6, that is.

It's 2021, and after a very long year, we're all in need of some juicy reality TV to hold ourselves over.

Here’s what stands out to me:The Black Swan calls herself “incredibly rare” while strutting rather delicately through a snowy forest. The PerformancesThe Black Swan moved in ways I didn’t even know were POSSIBLE during her rendition of “Barracuda,” by Heart. ), the Icelandic singer wore a truly iconic swan dress to the Academy Awards in 2001, so fans think she could be the Black Swan.

Disgraced Def Jam founder Russell Simmons calling in. Photo: Verzuz/TrillerThe 4/20 Verzuz between Method Man and Redman had everything you’d expect. Then, there was the unexpected: A FaceTime call from Russell Simmons in the middle of the showdown. After the pair reminisced on their Def Jam days, they got a FaceTime call from founder Russell Simmons, who appeared to be in pajamas and in bed.

According to Richard S. He’s Vulture ranking of every Gaga song, this track is “a tad less vital than ARTPOP’s best.” I agree. “Applause” was the green light into ARTPOP, and an archetype of this junction in Lady Gaga’s career. (But let’s not forget Lady Gaga’s 2013 MTV VMAs performance — who else could slay five lewks in one night, on top of coordinating multiple choreos and wigs?) In the end, Lady Gaga’s “Gypsy” recognizes the freedom that comes with being on your own. It’s an all-around manifestation of the fun and forward-thinking that ARTPOP bestowed on pop music and its ever-changing audience.

If you’re excited to see the new Mortal Kombat movie, which hits theaters and HBO Max on April 23, you’re also probably walking in with some familiar expectations. The Mortal Kombat album is credited to The Immortals, but that name is just one of many musical projects the pair were involved in. Of those two, “Hypnotic House (Mortal Kombat)” came first. “Techno Syndrome” has transcended Mortal Kombat, though, even as it gets its power from that unmistakable shout of the tournament’s name. For something that only took four weeks to make, though, the music of Mortal Kombat remains an outsize part of their legacy.

Skinnygirl founder, former Queen of RHONY, and self-described “serial entrepreneur” Bethenny Frankel is looking for a vice-president of operations, and where else to fill out an executive suite than on reality TV? In The Big Shot With Bethenny, coming to HBO Max on April 29, Frankel tasks “aspiring moguls” with a series of challenges designed to test their business acumen to see if they have what it takes to be her second-in-command. “I’m a mother, a philanthropist, and a bit of a clown,” Frankel says in the show’s trailer. Will Frankel’s beloved one-liners play as well when she’s essentially giving a job interview? Well, if you can’t handle the truth, you can’t handle Bethenny.

Hugh Jackman. And that starts with “T” and that rhymes with “P” and that stands for “producer Scott Rudin.” Hugh Jackman has finally spoken out about the allegations of workplace abuse surrounding Broadway producer Scott Rudin, after Rudin announced he would take a “step back from active participation” in their upcoming production of The Music Man. This has started a conversation that is long overdue, not just on Broadway, and the entertainment industry, but across all workforce. The most important voice we needed to hear from was Scott Rudin, he has now spoken up and stepped away from The Music Man. We are currently rebuilding the Music Man team and are aspiring to create an environment that is not only safe, but ensures that everyone is seen, heard and valued.

Following its record-breaking success in Japan, Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba the Movie: Mugen Train is preparing to make its Stateside debut. Photo: Aniplex AmericaNo matter what Christopher Nolan may have wanted you to believe, the movie that saved the box office last year wasn’t Tenet but an anime film titled Demon Slayer: Kimetsu No Yaiba the Movie: Mugen Train. This means that if you’re planning to catch Mugen Train when it hits U.S. theaters this weekend, you probably do need to catch up on Demon Slayer first.

Sony and Disney have finally negotiated a deal to bring Spider-Man and other Sony properties to Disney+. According to Variety, the deal not only covers Disney+ but a host of other Disney platforms like Hulu, Freeform, FX Networks, ABC, and Disney Channels. Sony’s 2022-2026 theatrical releases will first appear on Netflix (who also brokered a deal with Sony today), then over to Disney.

But apparently, Bobby Brown did not know that he was claustrophobic until he was performing as the Crab on season 5 of The Masked Singer. While signing “Give It to Me Baby” by Rick James, the Crab briefly ran off stage due to a panic attack. “I wear light clothes when I’m performing normally, and this had so many layers that it constricted me from moving like I do,” Brown said. Guest judge Rita Wilson rapped a chunk of Naughty By Nature’s “Hip Hop Hooray” because…she could?

Deadline broke the news that The Giver writer Michael Mitnik has been tapped by Disney and The Henson company to pen a biopic about too-good-for-this-sinful-earth Muppet creator Jim Henson. Jim Henson began creating Muppets in the 50’s—first as characters in commercials, but eventually in their own specials and a syndicated variety show. Eventually, Henson convinced Lord Lew Grade to make a show with the Muppets in London. After success with The Muppet Show, Henson moved on to various TV and movie efforts with varying levels of success.

James Cameron came by The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon to talk about some of his favorite things: Da Ocean and Da Movies. Cameron took his Zoom interview in his Wellington, NZ editing suite, and viewers could see some cool Avatar shit in the background.

Norton & Company has paused the distribution of a best-selling Philip Roth biography after several women accused its author, Blake Bailey, of grooming them as middle-school students and then pursuing sexual relationships with them in their early adulthood. “These allegations are serious,” the publisher said in a statement. “In light of them, we have decided to pause the shipping and promotion of ‘Philip Roth: The Biography’ pending any further information that may emerge.” Bailey’s literary agency, The Story Factory, has also dropped the author. Others allege that he frequently inquired about the status of their virginity after they left Lusher. Some critics felt that Bailey was too sympathetic toward Roth’s portrayal of women in his books and treatment of women in real life.

Weezer have released the metal-inspired single “I Need Some of That,” off their upcoming album Van Weezer. Van Weezer arrives on May 7th on Crush Music/Atlantic Records. The album was originally slated to be released last year, but was postponed due to Covid-19. Van Weezer is produced by engineer Suzy Shinn. “I engineered for Jake [Sinclair] on [2016’s] White Album, and then I engineered on [2017’s] Pacific Daydream and vocal-produced [2019’s] Teal Album,” Shinn told Rolling Stone last month.

Excavate!, a collection of essays inspired by the music and world of the Fall and Mark E. Smith, is set to be published in the U.S. for the first time on June 22nd via Faber Books. The book, previously available overseas, features contributions from a variety of writers, as well as a collection of previously unreleased artwork, rare ephemera, and handwritten material. The Wonderful and Frightening World of the Fall as a book that’s not so much about the Fall as a band, but the world Smith — who died in 2018 at 60 from the effects of lung and kidney cancer — built. That world includes not only music but an eclectic mix of interests that run the gamut from Medieval scholar M.R. Back in February, the Fall released a new live album, The Fall — Live at St. Helens Technical College, ’81, which features a mix of tracks from 1979’s Dragnet, 1980’s Grotesque (After the Gramme), and 1981’s Slates EP.

British rapper Little Simz has released a new song and video, “Introvert,” from her upcoming album, Sometimes I Might Be Introvert, set to arrive September 3rd via Age 101. The clip cuts together archival and newly shot footage of protests and social unrest with majestic dance sequences and more. Sometimes I Might Be Introvert follows Little Simz’s 2019 album, Grey Area. Simz produced the album with her regular collaborator Inflo, and it will feature guest appearances from Cleo Sol, Obongjayar, and even The Crown star Emma Corrin. Simz also recently starred in the second season of Netflix’s Top Boy and will be reprising her role in the third season, which is filming now.

“It’s weird to be perceived as hopeless in the moment when I’m actually incredibly hopeful,” says Matt (Ed Helms) to Anna (Patti Harrison), the surrogate carrying his baby. That he will then raise this kid as a single father is part of the film’s very slight gender-expectation-defying agenda. condescending, though that might have more to do with him registering as baffled, benign and a flat zero on the sexual-threat scale. “This show is so dumb” murmurs Anna as she and Matt watch their umpteenth episode of Matt’s favorite sitcom, Friends. And she’s absolutely right, about that show and this movie — call it The One Where Anna and Matt Have a Baby.

And now, the house where a grown-up Daniel lives with his wife and children on the series is up for sale! Despite the ad nauseam mentions of “the Valley,” “Encino” and “Reseda,” little of the series is actually shot there. The vast majority of filming instead takes place in the ATL, which does a fairly adequate job of standing in for Los Angeles. And Daniel’s Spanish-style property plays at the center of it all. As it turns out, Hollywood has actually descended upon the picturesque pad twice!

Sony Pictures and Disney have inked a massive licensing deal for Sony’s 2022-2026 release slate, as The Hollywood Reporter reports.

In the new Peacock sitcom Rutherford Falls, Ed Helms and Jana Schmieding play best friends Nathan and Reagan, who grew up together in the titular northeast town named for his ancestor who famously brokered peace with her ancestors in the (fictional) Minishonka Nation. “Oh, to lead that white dude life!”Nathan and Reagan’s contrasting experiences are meant to be the comic engine that drives Rutherford Falls, as well as a symbol for all the ways the town’s white and indigenous populations do and don’t get along. Rutherford Falls finds more comic specificity when it focuses on Reagan, Terry, or life in general in the Minishonka community. And Reagan is treated as Nathan’s narrative equal, even though Jana Schmieding isn’t nearly as famous as Ed Helms. The full first season of Rutherford Falls premieres April 22th on Peacock.

Bartees Strange has shared a cover of Bon Iver’s “Skinny Love,” recorded for SiriusXMU Sessions. Recorded in his basement on vocals and electric guitar, the sparse cover stays pretty true to the original, with Bartees’ vocals lending a new level of emotion to the track. He added on Instagram, “I just fucking love Justin Vernon so when they said I could do this one I was like hell yeah. I always try to do cool arrangements of things but this one is just so good on its own. “The work he did this year — the Taylor [Swift] records, Big Red Machine stuff, the National stuff…As a producer and a person who makes stuff, it’s so wildly inspiring to see someone work like that.”

When Keith Richards first met Gram Parsons in 1968, he felt he’d known him all his life. How far that effect went has been a hot debate between fans over years, particularly when “Wild Horses” enters the conversation. The song is the final track on the Flying Burrito Brothers’ Burrito Deluxe, a year before the Stones’ version was released on Sticky Fingers — an album that turns 50 years old this week. You can hear it in ‘Dead Flowers,’ ‘Torn and Frayed,’ ‘Sweet Virginia,’ and ‘Wild Horses,’ which we gave to Gram to put on the Flying Burrito Brothers record Burrito Deluxe before we put it out ourselves.”Parsons also explained the song’s genesis months before he died in 1973, claiming he heard it the night of Altamont, when the Flying Burrito Brothers and the Stones both played the ill-fated festival. It takes on a heavier feel from the Stones’ version, with Parsons’ vocals sounding as if they’ve been dipped in whiskey and left to dry in the desert.

In 2017, a stage diver landed on a man’s head at a punk music festival in New Jersey. Will we see an explosion in these types of liability lawsuits in the coming months, as music festivals come roaring back around the world, bringing an increased risk of Covid-19 cases with them? The answer is largely not — because festivals have preempted such scenarios. When asked why, a Summerfest organizer responded that the event’s “materials, including the website, will be updated as we get closer to the opening of Summerfest 2021,” which is scheduled for September. Festivals’ protective language around Covid isn’t unique to their attendees, either: Benoualid works on contracts for artist clients, who are facing their own set of tightened rules.

NFTs are allowing people to buy and sell digital assets like never before.

Digital art, music, and even digital sports cards are all NFTs you can buy. "For the artist, this has created a new source of revenue and outlet for their art or music," says Hayes. Ozair believes NFTs have more value than a regular collector's item like a ticket or an album.

The publisher of a new, bestselling biography about Philip Roth has temporarily halted the book’s shipping and promotion as its author, Blake Bailey, faces multiple allegations of sexual harassment and abuse. "He’s still one of the best teachers I ever had, which is so sickening to me," says Wightkin-Gelini, who now teaches high school students at the New Orleans Center for Creative Arts. Some former students, including Sarah Stickney Murphy, disputed that.

Here's what you need to know as you start your day ...LeBron James accused of inciting violence with 'YOU'RE NEXT' tweet targeting Ohio police officerLos Angeles Lakers superstar LeBron James faced intense backlash Wednesday over a now-deleted tweet targeting a Columbus, Ohio, police officer involved in the shooting death of 16-year-old Ma'Khia Bryant. "YOU’RE NEXT #ACCOUNTABILITY," the NBA icon wrote with an hourglass emoji over an image of one of the officers at the scene of Bryant's shooting. James was accused by critics of leveraging his massive Twitter following to target the officer. "Lebron James is inciting violence against an Ohio police officer. New York Post reporter Steve Nelson followed up by asking Psaki whether Biden believes "it’s important to accept his own culpability" for perpetuating systemic racism.

Policing experts said that officers with multiple shootings may work in high-risk units like SWAT, where they could face violent, unpredictable situations. Police accountability advocates point to examples of officers, like Myers, who have faced no consequences for multiple shootings despite allegations of potential misconduct. In Mesa, just five officers fired their guns in 23 incidents over that period. In Columbus, officers with multiple shootings fired in 74 encounters during the same period — the most of the eight cities. In Seattle, officers who fired more than once were involved in nearly a third of police shootings from 2014 to 2021.

Minari is a well-made film — nicely acted, solidly structured, interesting, and a mild emotional workout. It’s about a South Korean family trying to make a go of farming in 1980s Arkansas, and it’s semi-autobiographical, based on the memories of the talented writer-director Lee Isaac Chung. For me, Minari’s entire appeal is all in the specifics — South Korean family plus Arkansas farm plus 1980s. But the ultimate symbol is, of course, the Korean minari plant grown by the grandmother down by the creek, as she scorns the “stupid Americans” who don’t know about its life-giving properties. Did I mention the film is dedicated to “grandmas everywhere”?

It seems like we've been waiting for the movie version of The Woman in the Window forever, but after several delays, the thriller is finally premiering on 14 May on Netflix. When Disney acquired 21st Century Fox in 2019, that meant acquiring all of its titles in production as well. With the COVID-19 pandemic shutting down movie theatres around the world, The Woman in the Window again found itself delayed for another year. With that, the movie finally found a release date that worked out: 14 May, 2021, a full year after its previous release date and nearly two years after it was initially supposed to hit cinemas. Whether any of these scandals will impact The Woman in the Window has yet to be seen, but at least The Woman in the Window will finally, after so long, be seen itself.

Sophie Turner's date night outfit actually one that we'd wear every.

As for her styling, the actress wore her pyjamas with a white bralette peeking out from under her shirt.

After a very long hiatus, Master of None is finally returning to Netflix for a third season. Netflix announced the comedy's return as part of its May programming, but the announcement is missing one very important detail: a premiere date. So when exactly will Master of None season three premiere? That would, at least, line up with how season two aired, way back four years ago: the full season dropped on May 12, 2017. The website Chortle first broke the news that Master of None was returning when it reported, back in January, that the show had started filming again.

Netflix's new movie Stowaway boasts a star-studded cast, a space setting, and a white-knuckle premise. There's no word yet on whether or not Netflix will make a sequel to Stowaway, and we probably won't hear any news for quite a while. As a three-person crew heads off on a mission to Mars, they discover an accidental stowaway on board their spacecraft. Anna Kendrick, Daniel Dae Kim, and Toni Collette play the three crew members, with Shamier Anderson as their unintended stowaway. Stowaway, in particular, feels like the kind of movie that's extra-attuned to 2021 (even though it was filmed in pre-pandemic in 2019).

As soon as I saw the giant glob of mayonnaise go into the bowl, I (along with seemingly the entire internet) proceeded to scoff at Molly Yeh's Popcorn Salad, a recipe featured on the home-chef-turned-cookbook-author's Food Network show Girl Meets Farm. This was, of course, before I recalled that so many of the classic "salads" Americans enjoy at picnics and barbecues — macaroni salad, potato salad, egg salad, chicken salad, tuna salad, the list goes on — are held together with mayonnaise too. (Among her creations are Pizza Salad, Bagel Salad, and even Candy Bar Salad). Popcorn Salad is fairly simple to make, as the most labor intensive step is chopping up the celery and snap peas. >Crunchy Snap Pea Popcorn Salad Molly Yeh via Food Network Notes To avoid soggy kernels, Popcorn Salad is best served right after preparing.

Read: 20 undersung crime shows to binge-watchSet in the area just west of Philadelphia known as Delaware County, Mare mines its topography as intentionally as it casually drops in Eagles logos, hoagies, and references to Wawa. Her propensity to reach for a Rolling Rock becomes one of the show’s running gags. But when footage leaks online of Erin being attacked before her death, Mare arrests the teenage suspect in full view of a restaurant crammed with people. Sarah Lancashire’s Catherine Cawood, of the BBC series Happy Valley (which found an eager audience on Netflix), seems most reminiscent of Mare. But the most interesting characters aren’t the ones who always do the right thing.

But it’s also near enough that the practicalities of interplanetary travel are much the same as they are right now.

Ellen DeGeneres has confessed that she had consumed three “weed drinks” and melatonin sleeping pills before driving her wife Portia de Rossi to the hospital last month. this week, DeGeneres said she drank three cannabis-infused drinks ahead of the unplanned trip, admitting the journey was “probably not safe”. “So, Chelsea Handler told me about these weed drinks, they’re called Cann, and they have CBD or THC – I don’t know what the good thing is,” she said. I shouldn’t be saying any of this.”DeGeneres added that de Rossi is “feeling much better now” following her emergency surgery. The Ellen DeGeneres Show recently lost over a million viewers following allegations of a toxic workplace on the series.

But she is talking, in particular, about how we respond to the climate crisis as we emerge blinking into a post-Covid reality. As we mark Earth Day this week, it is clear climate change has become a catalysing moment for rock and pop.

And on 19 April, Brian Eno launched EarthPercent, a campaign aiming to help fight climate change by raising £70m from the music industry by 2030. He is working with EarthPercent and London climate change charity Julie’s Bicycle on a project that will bring voices from the Black community in south London into the debate.

If there’s one film this year that deserves to challenge this perception, however, it is Judas and the Black Messiah. A tense, coruscatingly well-acted period drama, Judas focuses on the downfall of civil rights activist and Black Panthers’ Illinois chairman Fred Hampton in 1969. The “Judas” of the title refers to Bill O’Neal, a car thief who is manipulated by the FBI into infiltrating the Black Panthers and betraying Hampton. It is his best performance to date, further proof that Kaluuya is one of the standout talents of his generation. It’s a powerful and profound film in its own right, and would be a worthy Best Picture winner.

By the 1990s it had become an international celebration, and on Earth Day 2020, over 100 million people around the world observed the 50th anniversary in what is referred to as the "largest online mass mobilization in history." The holiday was originally suggested by peace activist John McConnell who proposed using the spring equinox as a day to honor the Earth and the concept of peace. Denis and his staff quickly developed the event beyond the original idea for a teach-in, and the first Earth Day was born.

Prince Harry's return to England last week for his grandfather Prince Philip's funeral sparked a lot of public interest over whether Harry, his father Prince Charles, and his brother Prince William would repair their strained relationships at all following Harry and his wife Meghan Markle's big Oprah interview that aired in March. The couple spoke openly about how the royal family and British tabloids' treatment of them led them to step down from their senior royal family roles permanently. Strikingly, Harry told Oprah point blank that he believes his father and brother are “trapped” in the institution. Scobie reported for Harper's Bazaar today that Harry did have “conversations” with Charles and William following Philip's service on Saturday. That's false, a source close to Harry told Scobie.

Agents told Turner he was a suspect in the infamous 1990 art heist at the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum and could receive leniency if he returned the stolen masterpieces, according to court records. But on Wednesday, Turner, 52, his dark hair now tinged with gray, walked out of Boston’s federal court a free man after a judge ruled during a resentencing hearing that the 21 years he already served were enough. On Wednesday, Stearns sentenced Turner to the time he had already served and ordered his release. Previously, while at a New York federal penitentiary, Turner was an instructor for the Victim Impact Program. Outside the courtroom, Turner’s lawyer declined to comment on the paintings or allegations that Turner may have been involved in the heist.

Susannah Fielding knows a thing or two about grinning and bearing it. You can imagine real-life Jennie Greshams like Susanna Reid or Holly Willoughby admiring (and sympathising).
