Jon Hamm seems to be everywhere these days.

The Emmy-winning actor, 54, was just spotted in a thrilling season 2 trailer for Your Friends & Neighbors, as just one example. And while the clip swirled online, so did headlines about an early season 3 renewal of the hit Apple TV series. If that extra bit of news doesn't get fans excited for what's to come, then I don't know what does.

Hamm also made his mark on Saturday Night Live last year, in a hilarious sketch that spoofed The White Lotus. And speaking of SNL, the beloved actor just reunited with a pair of fellow regulars from the long-running comedy show for an all-new Super Bowl ad — courtesy of Ritz.

The iconic cracker brand just unveiled its 30-second spot online, featuring Hamm alongside Bowen Yang and Scarlett Johansson. Watch as the Mad Men actor and Yang, 35 (who recently departed SNL for good), sit perched overlooking partygoers who are enjoying Ritz Crackers on the beach. As they contemplate joining, Johansson, 41, arrives on a jet ski and invites the pair of gents to come down for some "salty, buttery" fun. Check it out below.

"Over the years, Bowen, Scarlett and I have built great friendships both on and off set, so getting to work together again was an absolute joy," Hamm shared exclusively with Parade. "I’ve always found that working with friends brings a unique, collaborative energy to any project, as there’s an ease and trust that makes the whole process feel effortless."

He continued, "When we all get together, it’s hard not to swap stories — and during the RITZ shoot, we definitely spent some time trading tales from past projects and laughing about all the unexpected moments that come with this kind of work. It’s such a unique bond to share, and I think that connection really came through in the fun we had on set."

Survivor 50 came at the perfect time for Mike White. One of the busiest men in Hollywood had just finished filming Season 3 of The White Lotus when he got the call to go back to a very different island full of twists and deceit. But it's clear the 54-year-old is still in storyteller mode, something he hopes to weaponize to make sure he's a character in everyone's tale. As a Survivor fan first and foremost, Mike's primary goal seems to be less about his own success, and more about the season's. So while the months leading up to Season 50 may have been "in the hands of the fans," now it's in the writer/director's hands, and he's hoping to end with quite the literal money shot.

Read on for my interview with Mike, and check in with Parade daily for interviews with this season's contestants and other tidbits. Survivor 50 premieres on Feb. 25 with a three-hour episode on CBS.

Survivor 50 interview with Mike White

So I want to start with the fact that you told Jeff, after your first season, no matter what was happening in your life, you would come back to Survivor.
I don't know about "no matter what." But I mean, Jeff once was like, "Oh, you're never coming back." And I'm like, "You don't know that! I'll definitely come back, unless you don't want me back."

Suffice it to say, there's a lot going on in your life right now! So what was your reaction when you were actually given the offer to play again?
Well, first they just kind of said, "Would you be available right now," which is June of this year. And, I mean, honestly, if they'd said almost any other time in the last five years, it would have been a no. I was like, "Wow, that's actually the one time I could probably do it." Because I'm on a kind of a mini-hiatus from White Lotus. And I was like, "I don't know if I have it in me." I'm pretty depleted from shooting and doing that show. But I was like, "Maybe this will help me." I'm a little burned out. So to get away from the show, my show, and immerse myself in something that's totally different, I mean, just for my own selfish reasons.

Plus, when I heard Christian and Angelina were coming, I'm for sure coming back. I don't want them to have more fun than me! And also, [it 's] Survivor 50. I mean, I am a genuine watcher from the first episode of the first season. And now it's part of my life, and Jeff is a friend. I feel like I'm part of a Survivor family, and I feel like it's cool to be able to participate in it. And so, yeah, I just felt really flattered that they would want me. And obviously I've had some, like, anxiety about it. But, obviously, I'm also really stoked.

It's a family reunion, in a manner of speaking.
iI's a big deal for the culture. 50, that's no joke. And especially in this culture where it's like shows don't seem to last more than a season. To have this as a perennial kind of constant in the culture is no small thing.

So I know you also did two seasons of The Amazing Race with your dad. Do you feel there's a different approach to a second season of a show compared to a first season?
I mean, I gotta say the second season of Amazing Race was just a general dumpster fire. I realized very early [that] my dad was not physically up for it. And I had put people on furlough for this show, Enlightened, so I could go on. I'd done a lot to go, and within two days, it was like, "We can't do this."

And also, there was just something about it too, which is my fear this time too. When you first are doing it with people who've never played before…sometimes when people come back, they lean into the personality they're supposed to have. And it feels a little more canned or something. So the second season of Amazing Race, it felt more like I was on a reality show than it was like I was getting a chance to play this game I've always wanted to play. And my hope is this season of Survivor that I will still feel like, "I'm here. I'm getting to play America's game, basically, and with people who are really into the game." And it avoids that feeling of like, "Oh, we're just America's Survivors," like it's a job or something.

Well, do you think there are people out here who are going to be looking for another job with you? I imagine you've thought about people trying to work with you to jockey for a spot on The White Lotus. Is that something you want to steer away from, or wield like a cudgel?
I mean, honestly, being here, I don't really want to think about White Lotus. I don't want to talk about White Lotus. I don't really see myself dangling that. The truth is, I don't really know what anyone's perception of me is. So, yeah, maybe people will be nicer to me because of it, or maybe people will have some kind of beef about that or something, or thinking, "Why is he here?" It's hard to know. If I assume, it'll probably not be necessarily a bad thing. But I could also see it be like,"We don't know who to vote for. Oh, Mike doesn't need the money. Maybe just get rid of him. He'll be fine."

Let's talk about your previous season, specifically how it ended. You've talked at length about the fact that you feel you backed down at the final Tribal Council. You felt, given the "David vs. Goliath" theme, if a Goliath had won, your house would be egged. Are you taking a similar narrative approach to this season, considering how many narratives are out here on the island?
I mean, I definitely think that being a storyteller is pretty much my only skill set. I realized last time [that] I'm a pretty useless individual. I can't catch a fish. I'm not good at building a shelter. I don't know what plants to eat or not to eat. I don't know things, because I don't live in the real world, like this world. 

But I also feel like that is a skill on Survivor that actually is helpful. Being able to see people in their narrative, and be able to articulate that, and kind of get in people's heads about who might be a threat, or what's an interesting story. Because everybody wants to be the winner of Survivor, but they also want to be the star of the show. And I've had so much practice flattering actors and trying to make people feel like they're the star of the show. And I feel like that's something that I do know how to do.

You know how to basically pitch, "How can I be a supporting character in your story?"
And compared to David vs. Goliath, which was the story of underdogs versus the heels, I got cast as a Goliath. When I voted out the first person in David vs. Goliath, I cried so bad, because it felt like we're crushing somebody's Survivor experience in kind of a nascent stage. I feel like this time, everybody's had fun. They've all done well. They're now just gluttons getting a second helping at the buffet. And I don't feel like I'm gonna be about, "Is this the right thing to do?" 

I just think that our mission here is to create an exciting season. And I feel like that's what I want to do. I want to win, but I also feel like winning is my version of winning would be to keep it exciting and then still somehow win it. But keeping it exciting means maybe keeping players in who are to others a huge threat, and somebody that you definitely want to take out. I feel like it'd be fun to sit with Cirie and Ozzy at the end. So that feels like maybe a different strategy than maybe some other people might have.

Well, let's get into that. We're gonna play a game called "Friend or Foe." I'm going to give you a name of someone on the cast, and you have to tell me if they're someone you want to work with, or someone you see as an enemy or threat. Starting with Jenna.
Friend. I feel like it'd be so fun. I mean, as somebody who watched the first season, it would just be a great story to have her go deep. And she has a vibe where there's something scattered and goofy about her that I think is funny. 

Colby.
Colby, I feel, is a great story. He'd be somebody I'd want to work with, but I also like him. I'm vibing him. He seems maybe a little grumpy, I can't tell. It's hard to know when in these things, because he's a little reserved.

Stephenie.
Stephenie, again, I'm old school. She's got a cool Survivor story, and she seems like she should be cool to work with.

You mentioned Cirie before as someone possibly in your Final Three plans. Give me your thoughts on her.
She's the perennial heartbreak of Survivors. I feel like Survivor owes her one. And it feels like these late-game twists have owned her multiple times, and she's played such great games. So, nothing would make it a better season than to have her somehow pull it off. I think she's got an uphill battle, but I'm not gonna be the one trying to pull the rug out from under her. 

How about Ozzy?
Definitely Friend. Actually, he's probably the only other person besides Christian and Angelina that I know outside of the game, because he was a manager of a restaurant in LA, so I had struck up a friendship with him. And like Cirie, I feel like he's had such an interesting journey on Survivor. And I feel like to have him get this at this stage of his life, and it would just be cool.

Coach.
I can sense he's got a good sense of humor. But he also played a very kind of "honor" [game],  or at least he talks that. So I don't know. I am loyal, actually. But I don't really like, "to the end, brother!" [Gesures dramatically.] That kind of stuff.

Aubry.
I would definitely work with her. I don't think she's a Foe.

Chrissy.
Chrissy, she has a little bit of a more maternal Angelina vibe. She's gonna try to run the show in this kind of warm mother way, which I might bristle against. I don't want a mother out here.

Let's get into your fellow David vs. Goliath representatives. What's your take on Angelina?
Angelina is a real friend. She was somebody I went through the entire David vs. Goliath with, Day 1 to Final Tribal Council. She's like my Survivorgirlfriend. So nothing would make me happier than if we would be on the same tribe and go through it again together. So  definitely a Friend. But Angelina only knows one speed. And she's gonna Angelina, and so I can't be responsible for her game. If she blows up her own game, that's on her. I'm not gonna go down with the ship.

Talk to me about Christian. He did vote for you to win, but you also played a large part in his boot.
Has he talked to you? Has he said something? Yeah, Christian and I are friends outside of the game. But yeah, I definitely feel like it would be a great story if he somehow got his revenge on me. I love Christian, and it was never personal. And I feel like I don't have a lot of friends out here, so I actually see him as a Friend. So it's nice to see him here. And so I hope, if we're targets for each other, it's like, "Keep your friends close, keep your targets closer." I hope we can at least pretend to work together.

How about Rick?
Rick Devens, I feel like he seems so nice. In this pregame, he's like a Labrador Retriever. He just constantly wants to make eye contact; he's smiling. And there's something about that, like, makes me want to vote him out. Just because I feel like he's working so hard to [be] this kind of avuncular, harmless dad. But I'm sure if I actually hung out with him, I would like him a lot. I would totally probably be wanting to work with him.

Mike White on 'Survivor 50'

Robert Voets/CBS

Let's move into the new era, starting with Jonathan.
Jonathan, I hope he's on my tribe so we don't have to go to Tribal Council. I have some weird feeling that I am gonna be on a tribe with him. I don't know, I just have this intuition that he's gonna be on my truck. But he seems cool. He's literally a giant. LIke I got in pretty good shape. I'm in better shape than I was when I came seven years ago. Then I get here, and I'm seeing these guys, and I'm like, "Oh my God." It's like if Jack and the Beanstalk was like a biblical story, like a giant Jesus showing up.

[Laughs.] How about Dee?
Dee, I feel like...I don't know. Especially like the winners of these later seasons. You've had your fun; you can go.

Emily.
She seems interesting. I don't even remember how well she did. I didn't do full recon, but she has a Ren Faire, like she's a fair maiden playing a harpsichord, look to her. ​​But was she a good strategist? I don't even remember. Anyway, I would take her as it comes. If she's cool, I'm cool.

Charlie.
Charlie definitely seems like "guy who's the smartest guy in the room" vibe. He's probably been smart and good at everything. And then he does really well in Survivor, and now he's gonna come back. So, yeah, he might be somebody that I would probably be okay voting out.

Related: The 50 Best ‘Survivor’ Challenges Ever — According to the People Who Made Them (Exclusive)

Well, you talk about not doing recon. How about someone who is known for playing hide and seek in Q?
Q is the most handsome. He's so good-looking. I would just keep him around to stare at. He's also kind of interesting to watch because he's got a little crazy eyes going on.

Tiffany.
Tiffany seems cool. We've been in the same vans this whole week, so I've spent a lot of time sitting next to her. She seems cool. I don't know. I'd like to get to know her.

Genevieve.
Genevieve, I feel like she played such a good game, and so heavily strategic. I feel like I would probably be like, "I'm not a good strategist. Help me." But something tells me she might have made herself a target because she played such a kind of clinical strategic game that it'd be hard to feel like you could trust her.

Let's talk about some of the recent faces on our screens. What are your thoughts on Joe?
Joe, I feel like one of these three in this season has to go early. It's so clear that they all work together. They were just working together. There's no daylight between the season. So he seems like a great guy, but one or two of those should go.

Does Kamilla fall in that pecking order as well?
Well, Kamilla, it's funny. Because her vibe here seems like she looks like a girl who's waiting for her parent to pick her up from school and she's in detention. She's not very animated. She looks kind of down. And I'm like, "Wow, you just were the star of the last season." She looks like, "Wait, what am I doing here?" Like she's in trouble or something. So I'm curious to get to know what she's like outside of this pregaming thing. But, I mean, I really liked her on her season. I would work with her.

Kyle.
Kyle would be probably my first vote-out. It's not even personal. But again, there's a lot from that season; they have this blood bond. And then he just won? You've had your fun. You were just here. You were just on TV, winning. You're not missing out if you go home.

Any thoughts on the 49 players?
The guy Rizo, he has kind of a "McLovin" vibe. I have a feeling he's like strangely confident, even though he has kind of a gawky [look]. He's also very young; he seems like he's maybe 18 or something. And then Savannah, she seems like maybe a Parvati nesting doll. She looks like she could fit inside Parvati. Like a little Parvati mini me or something, but she seems very poised; she's very self-contained. And something about that, I think, is interesting.

Which previous player do you wish were out here on the island with you right now?
Well, definitely Richard Hatch, just because it's like the first season. I mean, if you want to see anybody try to play this new era, it would be Richard Hatch. So, yeah, I guess I wasn't expecting to see him, but I would have been stoked to see him.

Finally, what celebrity or fictional character would you bring out for a Loved Ones visit? This is an interesting situation for you, because a celebrity could actually be your loved one.
I mean, because she's my friend, Jennifer Coolidge, I'd probably bring out. Or Molly Shannon. Just because they're close friends, and also would be so funny to have in this situation and scenario. I almost even asked them, and then I was like, "Nah, they would probably feel like they needed to do it. I wouldn't want to put them through it.

Would Jen get on the boat?
Jen would probably get on the boat. I don't know how well she'd get off the boat.

When I spoke to you the day after the David vs. Goliath finale, you talked about playing Survivor to "keep chasing that adventure." And it's safe to say you've gone on plenty since. So what does it mean for you to embark on a new adventure in a very familiar setting?
I mean, honestly, nobody's gonna like me to say it. But I feel like I've hacked the culture. Because I feel like there's probably a lot of celebrities or whatever who probably watch Survivor and just be like, "I can't do that." And somehow being able to do my creative stuff and be completely engrossed in that, but then also be able to do something like this, I'm such a pawn in someone else's game. Honestly, I've just been feeling so lucky to be here. 

And also it's like you realize, your life is like decorating a house. After some point you like, you realize there's so many layers of stuff you've built up over time. And I guess that's there's a satisfaction to that, where you look back, and you're like, "Wow." I just keep taking these chances, and then they continue to sort of pay off somehow in some deeper way for me. And coming back here now, it's obviously an adventure. But also, it's a weird homecoming too. And because it's 50, it feels like it's meaningful to all the people involved. And to be able to participate in that with those people, it's moving almost.

It's "In the Hands of the Fans." So I feel like I owe it to, I don't know if it's the fans on Reddit or these message boards, whatever. But I feel like it's my duty to, yeah, obviously play an interesting way, but also try to keep the people in who are also playing interesting ways, and keep it as exciting as possible for everybody.

[WARNING! This article spoils the events of Bridgerton Season 4 Part 1, now available for streaming on Netflix. Please do not read further if you do not intend to know what happens in Episodes 1-4.]

A lot happened in Bridgerton Season 4 Part 1, especially regarding Lady Violet Bridgerton's (Ruth Gemmell) and Lord Marcus Anderson's (Daniel Francis) relationship. Actor Daniel Francis's comment during his interview about where he thinks his character is headed next has upset some fans.

Part 1 of the fourth season revealed that Lady Bridgerton decides to live her own life and explore a relationship with Lord Anderson, leading to a steamy night. Her decision came with some trepidation, still feeling unsure about moving on from Edmund's death.

In an interview with Deadline, the topic of conversation led to Francis speaking about how his character could step into a fatherly role for the last male Bridgerton, Gregory (Will Tilston).

"I think he'd be a great mentor and father figure for young Gregory, as he goes through the things of life, but also, he’s not trying to replace Edmund as well," Francis said. "I think that’s important as well, that creates a space, which is, 'I'm not trying to replace Edmund.' He is there just discovering something that is new and fresh for them."

Francis's comment on Lord Anderson becoming the "man of the house" has upset some fans. They have watched as Anthony Bridgerton (Jonathan Bailey) stepped into the role of a father figure for all of his siblings from a young age. Many believe the fatherly role, especially for Gregory, is reserved for Anthony.

"The Bridgertons don't need a father figure; they already have Edmund in their memories and Anthony, who became a father at 18 when he wanted to be a brother. The production wants to discard Anthony, but the fans won't accept that," said one fan on X.

"Gregory is a BRIDGERTON, and the head of that family name is his brother ANTHONY who is close to their father, and provided him when he is still a toddler up to his late teens," said another.

One fan added, "He already has one, and his name is Viscount Anthony Bridgerton!!!! Stay away from the children. Please, just focus on being a lover. Thank you...."

Bridgerton fans feel that Anthony and Kate's (Simone Ashley) marriage serves as the "heart" of the family and the lessons on love that Lady Violet and Edmund instilled in their children from a young age.

Given his combined 21 years as the regular host of The Tonight Show, it's safe to say Jay Leno has delivered his fair share of memorable on-air interviews.

Whether appearing opposite a blockbuster movie star or speaking with the then-president of the United States, Leno consistently managed to crank out quality television moments the likes of which viewers couldn't enjoy enough.

Yet with how many years Leno spent on television, it's also fair to assume Leno occasionally appeared in a few less-than-stellar interviews on The Tonight Show over the years.

In 2014, for example, Leno once revealed his personal least favorite celebrity to ever appear on The Tonight Show, singling out a famous reality television star as his worst TV guest.

Taking to the stage for an episode of Craig Ferguson's Late Late Show, Leno was asked by the show's host whether he ever grew tired or let his mind drift when speaking with guests he found slightly less interesting.

"The classic example is I had one of these reality stars on… Trista!" Leno said, referencing realty TV personality Trista Sutter. "From one of these Bachelorettes… So, I'm sitting and I'm looking at the side of her head. I couldn't be less interested. I've never seen this stupid reality show — you know what it was."

As if that weren't that bad enough, Leno went on to reveal that, after his initial encounter with Sutter on The Tonight Show, he bumped into her in the parking lot once the show had wrapped for the night.

As further evidence of their utter lack of chemistry, Leno outright failed to recognize The Bachelorstar, asking her name only moments after their initial on-stage interactions.

"So I said 'Well thank you, and good talking to you, see you, great, good night everybody!'" Leno remembered. "I go out in the parking lot, there's this woman standing next to me with her boyfriend. She goes, 'Hey, can I have a picture?' I said, "Sure, how're you doing?' She goes, 'Good.' 'So what's your name?' She goes, 'What?' 'What's your name?'"

Natalie Imbruglia is ready to celebrate her 51st birthday on Tuesday, but she still looks the same as she did back in the '90s.

The Australian pop singer rose to stardom in her home country in the role of Beth Brennan in the popular soap opera Neighbours, but it wasn’t until she released her debut single “Torn” in 1997 that she went on to international fame. Featured on her debut studio album, Left of the Middle, the song, a cover of a 1995 song by the band Ednaswap, dominated the charts. Still actively touring, Imbruglia has released six albums, with 2021’s Firebird as the most recent.

Over the weekend, Imbruglia took to Instagram to share that she was heading to Mexico to perform, but also to have a little bit of fun. While her hair is longer than it was during her MTV heyday, Imbruglia has barely aged a day since "Torn" topped the music charts. Just look at those cheekbones!

"See you soon Mexico!!! It’s been a long time coming… and I haven’t been on stage in months so I’m sooo excited!!" she captioned the photo, which showed her sitting on a plane. "My first show on my Birthday too!!! 😆💜💃🏽."

‘Torn’ is Covered By Today's Hottest Singer

While “Torn” was a ’90s classic, some of the hottest singers of today love to cover the beloved tune, whose music video dominated the airwaves. Last summer, Camila Cabello took a seat at the piano to cover the song during the Australian leg of her Yours, C tour, Billboard shared.

“when in australia… you have to sing torn,” Cabello captioned a clip of the performance, which she shared to her social media pages.

Cabello isn’t the only one who loves to cover the tune. Back in March, Dua Lipa‘s Australian leg of her 2025 “Radical Optimism” tour featured a performance of the song. Dressed in a fuzzy white scarf trailing dramatically behind her, she belted out the song and delighted fans.

Today co-anchor Savannah Guthrie's mom, Nancy Guthrie, is still missing after being abducted from her Arizona home—and police say blood was found at the crime scene.

On Tuesday, Feb. 3, law enforcement sources told the Los Angeles Times that blood and signs of forced entry were discovered at the Tucson home where Nancy, 84, was taken against her will. Police did not confirm who the blood belonged to.

The Pima County Sheriff’s Department (PCSD) launched a search for Nancy on Sunday, Feb. 1, describing her as a “vulnerable adult” who was last seen at her home on the evening of Saturday, Jan. 31. The PCSD declared her home a crime scene on Monday, Feb. 2, revealing later that day that she Nancy was “taken” from her residence “against her will,” in the middle of the night.

On Feb. 3, NBC correspondent Liz Kreutz reported from Tucson on Today, sharing, “While the sheriff tells us they have received many tips from the public and community, he says they still don’t have a solid lead.”

However, Kruetz also revealed that possible DNA testing is pending but could still take several days. Prima County Sheriff Chris Nanos explained, “We took some samples that we hope will have enough profile of a DNA—profile that gives us some identification as to what we’re looking at,” he said.

Savannah took to Instagram on Monday to ask her followers for their continued prayers amid her mother's ongoing search effort.

Alongside an image that read "Please Pray," she wrote, in part: "We believe in prayer. We believe in voices raised in unison, in love, in hope. We believe in goodness. We believe in humanity. Above all, we believe in Him. Thank you for lifting your prayers with ours for our beloved mom, our dearest Nancy, a woman of deep conviction, a good and faithful servant. Raise your prayers with us and believe with us that she will be lifted by them in this very moment. We need you."

Disney fans woke up to a true pinch-me moment on Tuesday: the company announced that Josh D’Amaro will become the next Chief Executive Officer of The Walt Disney Company, officially taking the reins at the annual shareholders meeting on March 18, 2026.

For many fans, D’Amaro is already a familiar face. Over the last several years, he’s been the executive most closely associated with Disney’s parks renaissance—the person on stage at D23 events, the leader behind massive park expansions and the executive who speaks fluently in the language of storytelling, immersion and guest experience. Now, that same energy is heading to the very top of the company.

For Disney’s board, the choice reflects years of careful planning and firsthand experience watching D’Amaro lead some of the company’s most ambitious chapters. “Josh D’Amaro possesses that rare combination of inspiring leadership and innovation, a keen eye for strategic growth opportunities and a deep passion for the Disney brand and its people–all of which make him the right person to take the helm as Disney’s next CEO,” said James Gorman, Chairman of The Walt Disney CompanyBoard of Directorsin a press statement.

“Throughout this search process, Josh has demonstrated a strong vision for the company’s future and a deep understanding of the creative spirit that makes Disney unique in an ever-changing marketplace. He has an outstanding record of business achievement, collaborating with some of the biggest names in entertainment to bring their stories to life in our parks, showcasing the power of combining Disney storytelling with cutting-edge technology. The Board believes he is exceptionally well prepared to guide this global company forward to serve our consumers around the world and create long-term value for shareholders.”

“I am immensely grateful to the Board for entrusting me with leading a company that means so much to me and millions around the world,” D’Amaro said in the same statement. “Disney’s strength has always come from our people and the creative excellence that defines our stories and experiences.”

D’Amaro succeeds Bob Iger, who will remain on as a senior advisor through the end of 2026. Iger praised his successor, saying D’Amaro has “an instinctive appreciation of the Disney brand” and “a deep understanding of what resonates with our audiences.”

Alongside the CEO announcement, Disney also revealed a historic new creative role. Dana Walden, longtime leader of Disney’s entertainment businesses, will become President and Chief Creative Officer—the first time that title has existed at Disney. She’ll report directly to D’Amaro and oversee storytelling across the company’s many worlds, from film and television to streaming and beyond.

“Given that creativity is at the heart of everything Disney does, she is a wonderful choice,” Iger said.

D’Amaro’s rise feels especially meaningful to fans because of where he comes from. He joined Disney in 1998 at Disneyland Resort and went on to lead both Disneyland and Walt Disney World before overseeing Disney Experiences globally. During his tenure, the company opened places fans now consider essential—Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge, Avengers Campus, Mickey & Minnie’s Runaway Railway and World of Frozen—with even more lands and parks already on the horizon.

As Disney enters its next chapter, the message is clear: the person who helped build the magic fans physically walk into is now the one shaping where the magic goes next.

Blake Shelton did not approve of one fan's outfit during a recent show in Las Vegas.

In fan-captured footage from his concert at The Colosseum at Caesar's Palace on Friday, Jan. 30, the country star stopped the show to address a fan in the audience who was repping merch for a different artist, fellow country crooner Luke Bryan.

"You come to my show wearing Luke Bryan s—t?" Shelton, 49, questioned the fan in the crowd, while playfully adding, "What's the matter with you? That guy's an idiot!"

In the video, originally posted to TikTok by the fan in question, Shelton could be seen gesturing to his crew while requesting they "Get her some merch," to swap out with her current T-shirt.

View this post on Instagram

But Shelton wasn't done yet, as he went on to make fun of the way Bryan performs on stage, particularly criticizing him for frequently pointing microphone to the audience and asks the crowd to sing along.

"Luke Bryan...You ever notice that he always does 'Y'all sing along'?" Shelton asked, before quipping, "Because he's too drunk to remember the words to his own song."

"Drunk and high!" he doubled down, while further joking that Bryan performs while "on drugs."

"Put that on YouTube. Put it on your Instagram," he told the fan.

But Shelton's lighthearted roasting of Bryan was clearly all in good fun, as the two stars are longtime pals with a friendly country music rivalry.

"Gotta love Blake," one fan wrote in the comments on Instagram, while another added, "Blake is hilarious."

The fan who was wearing the Bryan T-shirt later updated fans on TikTok to confirm that Shelton really did give her a free T-shirt to replace the forbidden Bryan merch.

Awards season is synonymous with high-glam red carpet moments, and Hailee Steinfeld has long been one of its most reliable scene-stealers. 

But this year, the attention surrounding one of her standout looks had slightly less to do with fashion—and more to do with a milestone moment in her personal life.

Speaking exclusively with Parade, Steinfeld, 29, reflected on the awards season appearance that felt especially meaningful to her. When asked to name her favorite red carpet look over the years, she pointed to a recent moment that’s still top of mind. “I might say, and maybe it’s because it’s top of mind, but The Globes a couple of weeks ago,” she said. “I wore this beautiful, beautiful Prada dress, and that was a special moment for me… a different looking red carpet moment for me than I’ve ever had in the past.”

The Sinners star’s Golden Globes appearance marked the first time she publicly stepped onto the red carpet since announcing her pregnancy with her and husband Josh Allen’s first child. Her shimmering, long-sleeved gown kept the styling classic and restrained, allowing her growing baby bump to take center stage.

But Steinfeld explained that what makes a look memorable for her goes far beyond the finished photos, and is more about the creativity. “I love the collaboration when it comes to working with a designer and my stylist and hair and makeup, even nails being such a huge part of a look.”

That same collaborative energy shows up in Steinfeld’s upcoming Super Bowl project, where she shares the screen with Keegan-Michael Key and Danny McBride in State Farm’s latest commercial. The spot puts a playful spin on Bon Jovi’s “Livin’ on a Prayer,” and Steinfeld said the tone immediately clicked for her. “The way that this was written was so quick and witty, but so smart,” she explained. The jingle, she added, had an almost immediate effect. “This new little rendition has not left my brain,” she said. “And I have a feeling that’s gonna be the case for a lot of people.”

Steinfeld’s new commercial will air during Super Bowl LX on Sunday, February 8.

Savannah Guthrie's 84-year-old mother has gone missing and authorities believe that she may have been abducted from her home in Arizona. As the search for Nancy Guthrie continues, some of Savannah's dearest friends are speaking out in an effort to find answers and to ultimately bring Nancy home safely.

Savannah's longtime friend Hoda Kotb has posted a few things on social media, asking the public for help during this trying time.

On Monday, Feb. 2, Kotb uploaded a photo of Savannah and Nancy and added the prayer hands emoji and a red heart emoji. Hours later, Kotb shared the hotline number for tips on Nancy's whereabouts or any information that might be helpful in finding her.

View this post on Instagram

"If you know anything.. pls help," Kotb wrote.

Dozens of fans took to the comments section of the post to send thoughts and prayers to the Guthrie family.

"This is so devastating and disturbing- praying for her safe return," one comment read.

"I’ve been praying and watching for updates all day. I’ve cried several times about it," someone else wrote.

"Praying for Savannah’s mother and her family who loves her so," a third Instagram user added.

"Praying for Savannah, and her precious family… Please bring her mom home," a fourth said.

The most recent updates on Nancy's whereabouts don't offer much more than urgency. On Tuesday, Feb. 3, Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos said that time is of the essence right now.

“It is a race against time, and I hope that window hasn’t closed,” he told NBC’s Liz Kreutz on Today.

Anyone with information on what happened to Nancy or her whereabouts is encouraged to contact authorities at (520) 351-4900.

Considering the risky material that British comedy group Monty Python produced over the years, it may be surprising that the one word censored by the BBC seems relatively mild.

Michael Palin recently revisited a revealing moment from Python’s early television years, explaining the forced cut during the show’s original run. Speaking on the No Such Thing As a Fish podcast, Palin described how broadcaster standards intervened during one of the troupe’s memorable sketches, 'Summarize Proust Competition,' resulting in an edit that has since become part of Python lore. Spoiler alert: I'll reveal the word at the end.

The sketch, which aired in Season 3 of Monty Python’s Flying Circus, centers on an intentionally impossible task. Contestants are given just 15 seconds to summarize Marcel Proust’s In Search of Lost Time, first dressed casually and later in formal evening wear. The escalating absurdity is classic Python, turning highbrow literary reverence into a pressure-cooker game show that collapses into chaos.

Palin explained that following one contestant’s failure, Graham Chapman’s character is interviewed and asked about his hobbies. The answer was written as a list of activities designed to shock through blunt contrast. The first two made it to air without issue: “strangling animals” and “golf.” The third, however, did not.

According to Palin, BBC reviewers objected to that final word and instructed the production to remove it entirely. At the time, editing meant physically cutting audio tape, Palin said, not simply trimming a digital track. The edit created an abrupt gap at the end of the list before the Eric Idle responds.

That silence became part of the joke. The cut, followed by the crowd’s seemingly unexpected reaction, suggested something outrageous had been said, even if viewers never heard it themselves. For someone watching the sketch today, the laughter carried the implication. For longtime fans, the missing word was already known, giving the moment an extra layer of subversive laughter.

You can watch Palin discuss the incident here:

https://www.facebook.com/share/v/1Ky2QC3zEK

The story highlights the delicate balance Monty Python often struck between provocation and restraint. While the group was famous for pushing boundaries, much of their humor relied on implication, timing, and tone rather than explicit delivery.

Since then, Palin’s career has stretched far beyond sketch comedy. Since Monty Python, he has become a respected travel documentarian, author, and actor, known for curiosity and warmth as much as irreverence.

In a tongue-in-cheek moment, No Such Thing As a Fish 'bleeps' the offending word in the teaser clip, though it is not in the podcast itself. The word? "Masturbation.'

Decades later, it may feel like a censorship overreach at a time when even Monty Python had to negotiate limits. The sketch endured and the omission itself became part of the comedy’s lasting legacy.

As more and more evidence from the notorious Epstein files make their way into the public spotlight, Jon Stewart is addressing his name briefly appears in the email list centered around the disgraced financier.

In the opening moments of Monday's episode of Comedy Central's The Daily Show, the 63-year-old comedian addressed the elephant in the room by pointing out that his name is indeed mentioned in an email correspondence between Epstein and film producer Barry Josephson.

“Of course, to get ahead of the story, I am also in the files,” Stewart said on Monday's episode. “We all searched our names, right?”

Rather than personally participating in the email thread, however, Stewart's name was simply highlighted as a potential narrator for a project centered around a director and stand-up comedian Stewart theorized to be Woody Allen.

“You all know which Woody, right?” Stewart said. “It’s the Epstein files — it ain’t Harrelson or the cowboy from Toy Story.”

“Jeffrey Epstein always had his finger on the pulse of what America was clamoring for in 2015!” Stewart deadpanned. “But Barry Josephson, thinking like the out-of-the-box television professional that he was, pitched this idea. This is true, quote: ‘Make a true biographical experience with his stand-up being the capper. Somebody like Jon Stewart could host/narrate the biographical part.'”

Feigning surprise, Stewart joked, "Excuse me? I am offended! Somebody like Jon Stewart, or Jon Stewart? My point is, do I have the offer or is this an audition?”

Elsewhere in his monologue, Stewart turned to the repeated mentions of both Elon Musk and Donald Trump in the recently declassified Epstein files, specifically opening up about the commander in chief's response to the files' release.

“Look man, we always knew that the people at DOJ releasing these documents weren’t on a fact-finding mission, they were running interference,” Stewart said. “And the guy they’re running interference for seems very satisfied with these results.”

If you’ve ever driven down Cancún’s Hotel Zone, you know the building. The one that looks like a row of glass-topped pyramids rising between the Caribbean Sea and the Nichupté Lagoon. For years, Paradisus Cancúnhas been one of the most recognizable resorts on the strip—and for the past year, one of the quietest.

That’s about to change. After nearly a year closed, Paradisus Cancún is officially reopening on April 1, 2026, following a renovation backed by an investment of more than $50 million. The timing is deliberate: just ahead of Easter travel, when Cancún reliably fills up with spring breakers, families and sun-seekers looking for an easy win.

What didn’t change is the thing longtime guests worried about most. The pyramids are staying. The resort’s stepped, atrium-style design—sunlight pouring down through vines and glass ceilings—remains intact. Instead of tearing the place down, the renovation focused on the parts guests actually use. Rooms were fully updated to improve layout, comfort and technology. Public areas and gardens were refreshed, not reinvented. The goal is a resort that feels familiar when you arrive, but noticeably more comfortable once you settle in.

View this post on Instagram

The biggest addition is something new for Cancún regulars: an adults-only Reserve wing. It’s essentially a quieter section within the larger resort, with upgraded accommodations and dedicated areas for guests who want a little separation without giving up the scale and amenities of an all-inclusive. It’s a familiar idea elsewhere in the Caribbean, but new for this property—and a sign of how competitive Cancún’s resort scene has become.

The basics still hold. All-inclusive dining, multiple pools spread across the property and direct access to one of the Hotel Zone’s more swimmable beaches. On one side, bright turquoise water and wide sand. On the other, calm lagoon views and sunsets that feel worlds away from the busiest stretches of the strip.

Paradisus Cancún sits in a prime, central location and its return adds a refreshed, recognizable option at a time when prices across the region continue to climb. Early rates are expected to start around $325 per night, with the Reserve wing coming in higher.

It’s not a brand-new resort—but in Cancún, that might be exactly the point.

For Disney fans who plan vacations the way some people plan weddings, there’s a new credit card in the mix—and it’s clearly designed with park regulars and cruise loyalists in mind.

On Tuesday, The Walt Disney Company and Chase announced the Disney Inspire Visa Card, a new top-tier option joining the existing Disney Visa lineup. It’s the first major addition to the Disney–Chase partnership in years, and it’s aimed squarely at superfans who already spend heavily across Disney parks, resorts, cruises and streaming.

“This card is meant for our biggest Disney fans,” said Cathy Cline, Senior Vice President, Corporate Alliances & Consumer Financial Services at The Walt Disney Company during a media briefing. “We want to give our fans as many options as possible to get even closer to the magic.”

The Inspire card carries a $149 annual fee and sits above the no-fee Disney Visa and the $49-a-year Disney Premier Visa. What makes it different isn’t just the earn rates—it’s how tightly it’s tied to Disney habits fans already have. Cardmembers can earn Disney Rewards Dollars faster on Disney+, Hulu and ESPN+, as well as on gas, groceries and restaurants, then redeem those dollars for park tickets, resort stays, cruises, movies and merchandise. Rewards don’t expire, and each Disney Reward Dollar equals one actual dollar—no math required.

There are also built-in anniversary perks that feel tailored to people who return year after year: a $100 statement credit after buying Disney theme park tickets annually, and 200 Disney Rewards Dollars each year after hitting a spend threshold on Disney resorts or Disney Cruise Line bookings made directly with Disney. Existing Disney Visa cardholders can apply, too.

The Inspire card also comes with new, fan-forward card art. Cardmembers can choose from five exclusive designs—plus access to 11 additional Disney Visa favorites—turning the card itself into a subtle flex for anyone whose fandom extends beyond the parks.

To sweeten the launch, the new card also comes with a sizable welcome offer. New cardholders can receive a $300 Disney Gift Card eGift upon approval, plus a $300 statement credit after spending $1,000 in the first three months—a total of $600 in upfront value if you meet the requirements.

That bonus—and the ongoing perks—put this new card in a very different tier from Disney’s existing options from Chase and The Walt Disney Company. The no-annual-fee Disney Visa currently offers a smaller welcome bonus (typically around $150) and earns 1% back on most purchases. The Disney Premier Visa, which carries a $49 annual fee, earns 2% back on gas, groceries, and dining, but doesn’t include any automatic annual park or resort credits.

By comparison, the new Inspire card’s $100 annual theme park ticket credit, 200 Disney Rewards Dollars each year for resort or cruise bookings, and up to $120 back annually on Disney+, Hulu, and ESPN+ are benefits that can easily outweigh its higher annual fee for anyone who visits the parks or books Disney trips regularly.

Chris Cracchiolo, President, Co-branded Cards at Chase, called the new card “the culmination of years of guest feedback,” adding that Disney and Chase have spent more than two decades refining what fans actually value. “We’re constantly surveying guests,” he said. “This is about giving them faster ways to earn and new benefits that feel meaningful.”

Other familiar perks remain—discounts on select park dining and merchandise, special character photo opportunities and access through the My Disney Experience and Disneyland apps—but the Inspire card layers on more flexibility, including Chase’s “Pay Yourself Back” feature, which allows rewards to offset airline purchases.

For Disney fans who already organize their lives around trips to the parks, sailings with Disney Cruise Line, and nights spent streaming Disney+, the Inspire card isn’t about discovering Disney—it’s about making the Disney life they’re already living pay off a little more.

Whether you’re hosting at home or attending someone else’s celebration, watch parties for big events like the Super Bowl are just as much about the food as the big game.

But if you’ve ever vied for oven time at a potluck, you know that smaller appliances like air fryers are your best friend for crispy, hot food– and that’s where this appetizer on sale at Costco comes in clutch just in time for the upcoming NFL championship game.

Costco fan page Costco.so.obsessed recently took to Instagram to praise Summ Foods’ pork lumpia, which was spotted at a California warehouse for $9.99, writing that it’s “perfect for the Super Bowl.” 

A 32-ounce box of the fully cooked Filipino-style spring rolls comes with 20 of the crunchy, savory appetizers, complete with sweet chili sauce for dipping. Each roll clocks in at 95 calories, with a tablespoon of the sauce adding 30 calories per serving. 

Filled with pork, carrot, cabbage, textured soy flour, and spices, the wheat-wrapped rolls can be made in the oven in 18 minutes, or in the air fryer in half the time.

Fans jumped into the comments to share their excitement for the lumpia, writing, “Yummm this looks good,” and proclaiming that they “Can’t wait to try!”

“Yumpia,” said a third commenter, cleverly combining their reaction with the name of the food.

While the product comes with a dipping sauce, a Reddit user who says they work at Costco shared a few months back that they love to enjoy it with another fan-favorite Costco find. “It pairs perfectly with the Wholly Guacamole individual snack packs,” they wrote on the social media platform. 

“Was at my store for a stint and now it's gone. Really hope it comes back because I love them so much! Bachans japanese bbq sauce goes great with them!” said another Redditor, though the same post had several users explaining that while “they’re ok,” the rolls could use more filling. 

“If I was having a major lumpia emergency and I didn’t have time to make them myself or go to my fave local spot to buy a bunch, and/or the people eating them couldn’t tell the difference, I would get these,” one Redditor said.

“Only the middle of each unit has filling. Towards the ends, it was solely wrapper,” said another, explaining that the quality “was actually quite good, wrapper and filling. Just make sure to deep fry or air fry it instead of oven baking. Tastes exactly like my mom makes from scratch minus her added shrimp.”

John F. Kennedy Jr. and Carolyn Bessette were the ultimate ’90s power couple, captivating the world with their glamorous romance. Now, a new FX series takes viewers behind the headlines to explore their passionate but turbulent love story.

Love Story: John F. Kennedy Jr. & Carolyn Bessette, by Ryan Murphy, peels back the layers of the couple's love story, from the moment they first met, through their marriage, and the reported breakdown of their relationship. The trailer is a greatest hits of many of their very public moments and quieter times they spent together.

Starring Paul Anthony Kelly as JFK Jr. and Sarah Pidgeon as Bessette, the series shows the duo struggling with a very public relationship they desperately tried to keep private.

Love Story opens with the couple’s first spark at a charity event, before Kennedy seeks out Bessette at her Calvin Klein office to begin their unforgettable courtship. On one of their first dates, Bessette asks, "How old were you when you realized you were the son of a president?" He replied, "I don't think anyone's ever asked me that before."

Bessette is warned by Kelly Klein (Leila George), "There's a lot of tradeoffs being with someone like that. Shiny people, they belong to everyone."

The trailer shows the couple falling deeper in love. Bessette meets the Kennedy family at their compound in Hyannis Port, Massachusetts, but she remains wary, telling her beau, "There's your world, and then there's mine."

"It's not a question of whether or not I want to spend the rest of my life with you," Bessette says in the trailer. "It's a question of if I'm cut out to be Mrs. JFK Jr."

The clip features some iconic press moments, including the couple's first appearance after their wedding outside their North Moore Street apartment in New York's Tribeca, as well as their infamous fight captured by cameras in Washington Square Park. In the trailer, Bessette tells Kennedy, "Everything in my life has changed. They won't leave us alone."

Love Story: John F. Kennedy Jr. & Carolyn Bessette is a nine-episode series that debuts on FX Thursday, Feb. 12 at 9 p.m. ET with a trio of episodes. Following, the series will air one new episode weekly.

A staple of the indie rock scene for decades, guitarist/singer Kraig Jarret Johnson has been beloved by fans for decades for his work with such bands as Golden Smog, The Jayhawks, and Run Westy Run...so fans were devastated to learn the Minneapolis musician has been diagnosed with cancer.

Johnson's family opened up about his health struggles on a GoFundMe page started to raise funds for his cancer treatment.

"Hi everyone, Ava and Esther here," the message began. "Our beloved stepdad Kraig was recently diagnosed with colon cancer. He underwent surgery to remove a third of his colon and after some tests, we learned that the cancer has spread to his lymph nodes. Over the next few months he will be undergoing chemotherapy and will be unable to work. Our mom will be Kraig's primary caregiver and they will both be out of work for the foreseeable future. We are raising funds to cover their household expenses (for possibly the rest of the year) as well as the endless medical bills they will encounter."

"Our city is under occupation. We have friends and neighbors dying in the streets," the post continued. "Our mom and Kraig are the most generous people we know and have taught us how to show up for those we love, those we do not know. We are abundantly aware of the crisis our community is facing, especially our immigrant neighbors, our Black and Brown neighbors, and other vulnerable community members. It feels like an inappropriate time to ask for community support; we would not be asking for funds if we had any other option.

Fans in the comments were quick to express their concern and send best wishes.

Johnson had been performing up until very recently, as he was seen with Golden Smog in NYC in December and again with the band at Wilco's Sky Blue Sky festival last month.
