’00s Indie Rock Band Cancels Almost Sold Out Tour Amid Singer’s ‘Ongoing Health Issues’
Scottish indie rock band The Fratellis, which earned major fame in the mid-2000s with their album Costello Music, shared the sad news with fans on Feb. 2 that they had to cancel the upcoming anniversary tour due to lead singer Jon Fratelli's health issues.
The Fratellis shared a statement announcing the news on social media, clarifying that the concerts are expected to happen at later dates, as they said, "The Fratellis Costello Music 20th Anniversary tour is unfortunately being rescheduled due to illness in the band."
"Promoters Crosstown Concerts are working hard to reroute the tour and the new dates will be announced as soon as possible," the statement went on, noting that all of the original tickets for canceled concerts will be valid for the new dates.
In a personal message from the band, the members elaborated on the reason behind the situation: "Unfortunately, Jon is unable to perform right now due to ongoing health issues. With the tour so close it breaks our musical hearts to [make] this decision but in light of medical advice that Jon takes time to recover it’s the only sensible option."
They continued, mentioning the fans' excitement about the tour as they said, "We were blown away by the reaction to this tour and can only promise that we are as disappointed as you at having to wait a little longer to celebrate Costello Music’s 20th Birthday."
To further convince fans that there's nothing to worry about, The Fratellis included an anecdote about when the band first started, and "we were faced with a far more serious medical obstacle that should have ended our dream there & then."
But they didn't let that stop them as they "just point blank f---ing refused to accept that we couldn’t do what we’d set out to do...With a wee bit of time we’ll do now what we did then..whatever it takes to get back onstage as quickly as possible, playing music for anyone who loves our thing as much as we do."
View this post on InstagramLuckily, it seems like this is truly just a temporary delay and both lead singer Jon and the rest of the band members, Barry and Mince Fratelli, will be back on stage soon, as the band's summer festival performances are scheduled to continue as planned. This will start with the MacMoray Easter Festival in Scotland on May 2.

The Fratellis’ Hyped-up Anniversary Tour Was Almost Sold OutThe Fratellis and their fans were very excited for the anniversary tour, with almost all of the dates sold out. According to The Fratellis' website, before making the announcement, the only original dates that weren't sold out were the concert in Wolverhampton on Feb. 14 and the concert in Newcastle on Feb. 24.
While the tour was originally set to take place throughout February, the band hasn't shared when the rescheduled dates might be, but considering The Fratellis are set to perform at festivals starting in May, it might be sooner than expected.

'Today' Alum Kathie Lee Gifford Issues Earnest Request Following the Disappearance of Savannah Guthrie's Mom: 'Join Me'
Savannah Guthrie's longtime friend Kathie Lee Giffordis calling on viewers to "bombard Heaven" in prayer following the horrific news of the abduction of Guthrie's mother, Nancy Guthrie.
The former Today personality took to social media on the evening of Monday, Feb. 2, a day after Nancy was reported missing in Arizona, to address the "awful" news.
"I am devastated for my friend Savannah’s beloved mother, and I’m keeping her and her family in my prayers since I heard this awful news," she wrote, before requesting that her followers "join me in bombarding heaven with your prayers, too."
"I cannot even imagine the pain that they are in," she added. "Only God can comfort."
I am devastated for my friend Savannah’s beloved mother, and I’m keeping her and her family in my prayers since I heard this awful news.
Please join me in bombarding heaven with your prayers ,too. I cannot even imagine the pain that they are in. Only God can comfort.
Nancy was last seen near her home in Tucson, Arizona on the evening of Saturday, Jan. 31. A friend noticed her missing from church on Sunday morning and contacted her family before stopping by Nancy’s home and realizing something was wrong, leading her to contact the police.
Authorities have since shared that there are “suspicious circumstances” surrounding Nancy's disappearance, confirming that they “believe a crime has been committed” and that the 84-year-old “did not leave on her own.”
Police believe Nancy was “taken” from her bed “against her will” in the middle of the night, as she has physical limitations that would prevent her from walking away unassisted, and that she was harmed in the process. So far, they have not shared any of the details that have led them to this conclusion, simply calling the evidence in the house "very concerning."
Nancy is presumed to be without her daily medications at the moment, which could reportedly prove "fatal" if not taken. While no specific suspects have been named, investigators are looking into registered sex offenders in the area and are reviewing camera footage from Nancy's home, her neighbors, local businesses and traffic lights, as well as searching the area with the assistance of a helicopter, a plane, drones, search-and-rescue dogs and volunteers.
Savannah made a similar plea as Gifford earlier today, requesting her audience to "please pray" that they can "bring her home." Her dear friend Hoda Kotb has also shared her "hope" for Nancy's safe return.
Nancy, considered a “vulnerable adult,” is 5 feet, 5 inches tall, weighs 150 pounds, and has brown hair and blue eyes. Anyone with information is encouraged to contact the Pima County Sheriff’s Department at 520-351-4900.

'70s Music Legend Behind 'Jeremiah Was a Bullfrog' Dies at 83 After Overcoming Addiction
Chuck Negron, founding member of ’70s rock band Three Dog Night, died peacefully Monday at the age of 83. The acclaimed musician and notorious rock star was surrounded by his loving family at the time of his death. He is survived by his wife, Ami Albea Negron; his children Shaunti Negron Levick, Berry Oakley, Charles Negron III, Charlotte Negron, and Annabelle Negron; nine grandchildren; five nieces; two nephews; and his children’s mothers, Paula Servetti, Julia Negron, Robin Silna, and Kate Vernon.
Negron died at his home in Indio City, California, on Monday, February 2. Through six decades of success and struggle, his large and unconventional family remained the most important part of his life. After decades of estrangement from fellow Three Dog Night founder Danny Hutton, the two men met last year to bury the hatchet.
Chuck Negron and the Rise of Three Dog NightThree Dog Night was founded in 1967 by Negron, Danny Hutton, and the late Cory Wells. The vocal trio focused on out-of-the-box harmonies and cutting-edge production, making them one of the most successful bands of the late 1960s and early 1970s. Guitarist Michael Allsup and the late musicians Jimmy Greenspoon, Joe Schermie, and Floyd Sneed later joined the group. Hutton and Allsup are the last living members of the original band and continue to tour as Three Dog Night.
Negron’s lead vocals appear on classics such as “Joy to the World (Jeremiah Was a Bullfrog),” “One (Is the Loneliest Number),” “The Show Must Go On,” “Easy to Be Hard,” and “Old Fashioned Love Song.” Rampant drug use and internal friction ultimately stymied the band’s success at its peak. Negron squandered much of his fortune on drugs, eventually ending up on Los Angeles’ notorious Skid Row before getting clean in 1991.
Solo Career, Memoir, and LegacyNegron went on to have a successful solo career, releasing seven albums between 1995 and 2017. He also released a highly acclaimed book, Three Dog Nightmare, in 1999, offering an honest account of the highs and lows of his life while taking responsibility for his downfalls and shortcomings on his path to rehabilitation.
Despite suffering from chronic COPD for three decades, Negron continued to tour extensively, proudly displaying his iconic vocal abilities up through his final performances. In his last months, he battled a heart condition in addition to chronic COPD. His resilience, his music, and his family serve as a testament to his perseverance and long-lasting legacy.
An exact cause of death was not given.

'70s Rock Band's Biggest Hit Nearly Never Happened
"Joy to the World", arguably Three Dog Night's biggest hit, was never supposed to be their song.
Founding member, Danny Hutton explained how the song (written by Hoyt Axxton) was originally written for an animated series.
"I remember Michael Allsup, our guitar player, and our bass player, Joe Schermie...We knew Hoyt Axton," Hutton said during an interview on the Professor of Rock podcast. "Hoyt Axton actually got signed to our management company. So, Hoyt went out as an opening act for us. He was a great big bear of a man, a great guy."
He continued, "Hoyt invited them to a session down in Hollywood in Selma. They heard it and they thought it was pretty good. It was a failed song...he was trying to do a morning cartoon thing with about 11 songs on it and [the show] didn't work."
Once the show failed, Hoyt decided to split up the songs to different artists. Upon hearing the would-be hit, Hutton recalled saying, "Oh God, what the hell is going on here?"
Chuck Negron explained that Hutton "didn't feel it was right for the band."
Hoyt decided to pivot the song into a gospel song, changing the iconic line, "Jeremiah was a bullfrog," to "Jeremiah was a prophet," Negron added.
"I said, well, what was the version he'd been playing for the guys? and he played 'Jeremiah was a bullfrog,'" he continued. "There's something about it that was cool. We just said, 'OK, let's go to the studio.'"
The song went on to reach No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100, and was ranked No. 1 pop single of 1971 by the outlet. "Joy to the World" was nominated for a Grammy Award for Best Pop Vocal Performance by a Duo Or Group.
It seems the only one who knew the song would be a hit was Negron.
"I knew that ['Jeremiah was a bullfrog'] was going to be in everyone's head," he said. "It was just too bizarre."
2000s Metal Band Announces Third New Vocalist 26 Years After Forming
Swedish progressive metal pioneers Seventh Wonder welcome Mattias Olofsson as their new lead singer, debuting on the upcoming album and first single.
Swedish progressive metal masters Seventh Wonder are kicking off a new era with the official introduction of their third lead vocalist, Mattias Olofsson, formerly of the band Grand.
The announcement comes 26 years after the band’s formation in 2000 and marks the beginning of what they’re calling Seventh Wonder Mk.IV.
The band shared a photo of the full lineup on Instagram, captioned:
“Here is Seventh Wonder Mk.IV: say hello to MATTIAS OLOFSSON!! Mattias joined the band quite a while back and has since stepped up to the plate delivering both original tracks as well as the vocal parts for the upcoming album. We are delighted to have found a Stockholm-based talent, who can bring some new flavors to the sound and also participate regularly in band activities.”
Mattias also expressed his excitement:
“I’m beyond proud and grateful to join the Seventh Wonder family! The band has an incredible history and I’m thrilled to become a part of their legacy. I’m so excited for what we’re about to create together and can’t wait to get on this journey with all of you.”
View this post on InstagramTo introduce Olofsson, Seventh Wonder released a cover of John Norum’s 1987 hit “Eternal Flame” via Frontiers Music Srl, giving fans an early taste of their evolving sound.
The track features Olofsson’s melodic, refined vocal style, showcasing crystal-clear highs and emotional depth.
Seventh Wonder was formed in Stockholm in 2000 by Andreas Blomqvist (bass), Johan Liefvendahl (guitar) and Johnny Sandin (drums) after their previous band dissolved. Keyboardist Andreas “Kyrt” Söderin joined later that year.
The band initially cycled through vocalists, starting with Ola Halén (2001–2002) and Andi Kravljaca (2002–2005). Their debut album, Become (2005), launched them into the progressive metal scene. In 2005, Tommy Karevik joined, contributing to what many fans consider the band’s golden era with albums like Waiting in the Wings (2006), Mercy Falls (2008) and The Great Escape (2010).
After drummer Johnny Sandin left in 2012, Stefan Norgren joined. This lineup produced Tiara (2018) and The Testament (2022). Following Karevik’s departure in 2023, Seventh Wonder took time to find a new vocalist, ultimately selecting Mattias Olofsson, completing the lineup for their seventh studio album, currently in progress.
For those curious about Olofsson’s previous work, the band recommends checking out “Kryptonite” by Grand on YouTube, giving a taste of his versatile vocal range.
Fans can stream the new single “Eternal Flame” and watch the official visualizer on YouTube now.
Dry Winter Skin Driving You Mad? There's a Hotline For That
Winter weather is brutal on skin, and honestly, it can feel personal. One minute your face is fine, the next it's tight, flaky and somehow both dry andirritated at the same time. Cold air outside strips moisture fast, then you step indoors where the heat is blasting and whatever hydration you had left just disappears. It's a one-two punch that leaves your skin feeling cranky and confused (as if it didn't have enough problems).
Lips crack, hands get rough no matter how much lotion you swear you've applied, and don’t even get me started on static making everything feel itchier than it already is. Even people who never struggle with dryness suddenly find themselves slathering on creams like it's their second job. Makeup stops sitting right, redness pops up out of nowhere, and your skin just looks tired. You aren't even doing anything wrong, it's just the elements. But now there's a hotline for all of your "skincidents."
What in the world is a "skincident"? According to the folks over at CeraVe, the definition is, "The unexpected moment when dry skin makes an unwanted appearance—like when you cross your legs and your ankles look desert-dry, or that awkward handshake where hands feel cracked and parched."
As someone who is currently dealing with dry, itchy skin despite living in warm Southern California, I can still identify with a "skincident." Fortunately, CeraVe has people for that.

Here's How to Reach the CeraVe "Skincident" HotlineCeraVe understands that not all of us have a dermatologist on speed dial. In fact, most of us don't. That's why they set up their own Skincident hotline which is open through Feb. 27. Here's how to use it:
Dial 844-SKINCIDENT (844-754-6243)and choose from the following options:
- 'Press 1' to report a Skincident and share your dry-skin story.
- 'Press 2' to hear Dr. Dylan Greeney's advice about preventing dry skin.
- 'Press 3' to learn more about CeraVe's moisturizing products developed with dermatologists.
Now there will also be live Skincident agents availableMonday through Friday from 5:00–8:00 PM ET, but not every caller will reach one. However, if you report a Skincident during live agent hours and provide the requested information they ask for, you'll receive a full-size CeraVe body moisturizer. Just note that this is a "while supplies last" situation.

Legendary Jam Band Plays Record-Breaking 40-Minute Version of Beloved Tune 22 Years After Its Release
The ninth installment of Phish's super popular Riviera Maya "destination concert vacation" in Cancun, Mexico was full of surprises for fans.
Not only did the jam band debut a trio of new songs over the first three nights, but the fourth and final evening included the longest-ever versions of three classic tunes...and considering Phish is known for jamming out for extensive periods of time, that's saying a lot.
As Live for Live Music reported, Phish's show on Saturday, Jan. 31, featured extra-long variations on “My Friend, My Friend" (at 25 minutes) "Beneath a Sea of Stars Part 1" (nearly 20 minutes) and “A Song I Heard the Ocean Sing," from the 2004 album Undermind, which clocked in at a whopping 40 minutes.
Fans in the comments on a YouTube clip of the marathon-length jam were duly impressed.
"Longest Song the Ocean ever Sung," one person quipped, with a second adding, "This has everything I love about Phish in it. The melodic blissed out jam I’ve been waiting for."
"About 14 minutes in the seriously great vibes come in hard," noted someone else.
Phish honored late TV star Demond WilsonThe rest of the show was reportedly just as memorable, as the band went on to finish their second set with several "major-key bops" including “Meatstick," a cover of TV on the Radio‘s “Golden Age" and “Slave to the Traffic Light." The encore featured another cover, this time of "Loving Cup" by the Rolling Stones, along with "Harry Hood" as a finale.
According to Jambands, the concert also included a surprise tease of the theme song from Sanford and Son during "Weekapaug Groove" honoring the show's late star Demond Wilson, who died the day before.
The next couple of months will see Phish take a break as members Jon Fishman and Mike Gordon head out on separate tours, but the band will return to the stage in April for a sold-out residency at the Sphere in Las Vegas.

The Korean-pop group got its start in 2013, releasing its debut album Dark & Wild. Since then, the band has achieved unprecedented global fame, winning hundreds of awards, including Billboard Music Awards, South Korean Daesangs, American Music Awards, Golden Disc Awards and 26 Guinness World Records.
Angelina Jolie’s Son Pax Makes Unexpected Appearance While Exploring New Career Path
Pax Jolie-Pitt, the 22-year-old son of Hollywood superstars Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt, made a rare public appearance in an unexpected place as he reportedly explores an exciting new career path.
He was spotted at a screening of the short film Self Custody at the Sundance Film Festival at the end of January in Park City, Utah. The short film is a thriller starring Henry Cejudo, Adrian Grenier and Adley Pearl Jones, directed by Fernando Ferro and Garrett Patten.
Pax was photographed with Ferro and Patten at the screening, with the 22-year-old wearing a casual outfit of a black t-shirt with a red and blue plaid shirt on top, matching the relaxed vibe of the event.

The second-oldest son of ex-spouses Jolie and Pitt, Pax, was reportedly invited to the private screening by the directors as he started exploring a career producing films.
According to TMZ, he has allegedly been discussing some future projects with Ferro and Patten, leading to the screening invite. The publication also reported that a source close to Pax said he is doing "extremely well."
Pax potentially pursuing a career in film production isn't too surprising, given his mother's work producing films and his own movie experience.
Most recently, he worked as a production assistant on the 2024 movie Maria, which Jolie starred in as the title character. Before that, he worked as a still photographer on First They Killed My Father, the 2017 docudrama directed, co-written, and produced by his mother, according to IMDb.
Pax hasn't publicly commented on his appearance at Sundance or his possible career intentions.

In Vivienne's case, she stepped into the world of theater by her mother's side a few years ago, working as her assistant on the Broadway production of The Outsiders, which Jolie helped produce. The musical premiered on Broadway in April 2024 and went on to win Best Musical at the Tony Awards, with Vivienne and Jolie attending the star-studded awards ceremony.
Before that, Vivienne also did a little acting, playing a young Aurora in 2014's Maleficent, which starred Jolie as the iconic Disney villain. Now 17 years old, Vivienne has plenty of time to figure out what she wants to do for her career, but she could decide to work in theater and film.
Shiloh is also working in the arts, but in a completely different area, as the 19-year-old is a talented dancer and choreographer. Last June, she gained attention after she choreographed a dance routine for a fashion event under the name Shi, but it's unclear if she intends to continue pursuing dancing as a career.

Savannah Guthrie Shares Urgent Plea For Prayers For Mom Nancy: 'Bring Her Home'
Savannah Guthrie shared a stark, emotional plea on Instagram late Monday, February 2, as authorities investigate the disappearance of her mother, Nancy Guthrie, 84, whom police now believe was taken from her Arizona home against her will, according to Today.
The post, which went up just hours after law enforcement publicly confirmed they are treating the case as a potential abduction, features a simple image reading “Please Pray.” In a lengthy caption, the beloved Today Show host asked followers to join her family in prayer as they wait for answers:
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.
'He will keep in perfect peace those whose hearts are steadfast, trusting in the Lord.’ A verse of Isaiah for all time for all of us. Bring her home.

The message quickly drew an outpouring of support in the comments, with fans and well-known friends offering prayers, encouragement and messages of love. Country singer Chely Wright wrote, “I have been praying for your mom since I heard the news earlier today. I cannot imagine your family’s anguish right now. 🙏❤️.”
Author Ann Voskamp added, “Constantly. Dozens of times already today. Our hearts are aching with you — deeply. You have all our prayers — and our hearts. Promise 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 We all love you @savannahguthrie — and are encircling you and your family with unwavering love.” One fan commented simply, “Praying with you and for you, @savannahguthrie. 🙏🏼🕊️.”
The Instagram appeal comes amid deeply troubling updates from Arizona authorities. Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos said during a press conference that investigators believe Nancy Guthrie was taken from her home outside Tucson during the night of Jan. 31. Her residence is now being treated as a crime scene, and officials have said there are “concerning” elements suggesting she did not leave on her own.

According to the sheriff’s office, Nancy has physical limitations, requires medication and could not have walked away unassisted. Officials have stated they are no longer conducting a traditional search operation and are instead pursuing the case as a criminal investigation. Nanos said they have been searching using a helicopter, a plane, drones, search-and-rescue dogs and volunteers. Savannah is reportedly in Arizona with her family and has been in direct contact with law enforcement.
For now, the family’s public focus remains on faith, hope and collective prayer. Guthrie’s post is asking supporters to stand with them in the belief that her mother will be safely returned. As one commenter wrote beneath the post, echoing thousands of similar sentiments, “Lord, please deliver Nancy back to her family.”

Masked ‘America’s Got Talent’ Star Shocks ‘American Idol’ Judges With Surprise Reveal
America first met Sheldon Riley as a masked singer on America’s Got Talent. He reached the quarterfinals in Season 14 (2020) and made it to the semifinals as a member of Team Mel B on AGT: Fantasy League (2024).
Now, the 26-year-old from Melbourne, Australia is coming out from behind the mask to audition for American Idol, and he explained why the masks and why he took two years away from music in order to perform as his authentic self.
“I’ve wanted to do music since I was a really young kid,” Sheldon said in his video package. “When I was maybe 15 years old, I sung at my school and I remember that first applause, and I was, ‘This is what I’m going to do.’ I loved the way it made me feel. I loved the way it made me feel noticed. About 10 years ago, I auditioned for a big TV show back in Australia – my big moment. I sang my song and they said it wasn’t quite enough, just you singing is not enough.”
That experience made Sheldon doubt himself. It made him feel as if he had to play a character just to be seen. That’s why the masked singer character was created that dressed up in crazy, of avant garde fashion with crystals and diamonds. It was the thing that he felt made people see him and it took off.
“I had opportunities like crazy, not just Australia, but the world,” said Sheldon, who represented Australia in the 2022 Eurovision Song Contest. “I have been on every TV show competition known to man. I’ve done it all. The outfits just kept getting crazier and crazier. It was almost like an addiction to being the most memorable person in the room. But I’d come home and take the mask off, the makeup, the accessories, everything, and I would hate that person I saw in the mirror. I hated that version of me, so I took 2 years off and remembered why that little kid got up on stage that first time.”
American Idol is going to be Sheldon’s re-entry into music.
“This is the one show – there’s no smoke, no mirrors, no nothing – and I said to myself, if I was going to come back into music, it would be here with just the piano and me,” he said. “If you don’t like it, you don’t like it. I don’t know if anyone’s going to want what I have to give without what I usually put on. That’s a big part of why I’m here just to remind myself that my voice is enough.”

When judge Carrie Underwood heard his story, she said, “Everybody has that version of themself of what you just said. Everybody has got their mask whether it’s something physical that they hide behind or this certain identity that they’re created for themselves. Of course, you do worry if I wasn’t that, would anybody still love me. You are very relatable.”
Then Sheldon got down to the business of the night which was singing. He performed “Brother” by Australian singer/songwriter Matt Corby.
“You are crazy talented, crazy unbelievable,” Luke Bryan reassured him. “I don’t know why you had to wear the mask because you are an amazing looking person. Being the loudest guy in the room, you don’t have to be that. Being the most dynamic singer in the room, you don’t have to be that. It’s okay to just peel a layer off. That was impressive.”

“You are an artist and you’re authentic,”Lionel Richie said. “I love watching someone in their moment. You have stage presence. It’s all there. Accept you; embrace you.”
Carried added, “I’m really glad you’re here. I really love your voice, so let’s vote.”
It was three yeses, so Sheldon is going to Hollywood Week.
He said, “I’ve been enjoyed by a lot of people, very important people, but that was the first time it meant something because I went out there and not playing a character. It was me. They liked me.”
American Idol airs Monday nights at 8 p.m. ET/PT on ABC. Streams next day on Hulu.

'Lost' Heavy Metal Singer's Mysterious Later Years Revealed in Upcoming Doc
Like so many rock bands throughout history, Iron Maiden's lineup went through some big changes during the group's early years. While their best-known albums feature lead singer Bruce Dickinson, Iron Maiden had a different frontman for their 1980 self-titled debut album and its follow-up, Killers: Paul Di’Anno, who left the band in 1981. But what happened to the singer after that?
A new documentary from Wes Orshoski answers that very question. Di’Anno: Iron Maiden’s Lost Singer explores Di'Anno's "final years," according to Metal Hammer, including his health struggles, move to Croatia, knee surgery, and eventual reconnection with his former bandmates and return to performing.
“I was gonna be done with it in a year,” Orshoski told the outlet. “Paul led me to believe on the phone that he’d be up on his feet in a couple of months, then we’d be filming him back on tour in South America. So the first time I met him was at the entrance to Salisbury Hospital. I was in the room when the doctor said he could lose his leg. Within the next hour, I realized this guy wasn’t gonna stand any time soon.”
Sadly, Di'Anno died in October 2024 following an aortic dissection at the age of 66, but work on the documentary was finished shortly before his death. A new trailer for the film includes appearances from such notable rockers as Metallica's James Hetfield, Gene Simmons of Kiss and Gary Holt (Exodus, Slayer), plus founding Iron Maiden bassist Steve Harris.
Orshoski, whose prior work includes Lemmy (about Motörhead’s Lemmy Kilmister) and The Damned: Don’t You Wish That We Were Dead, told Spin that Di'Anno was "incredibly vulnerable" during the making of the documentary.
"He understood that he was taking a risk, allowing me to film some of the hardest moments of his life," the director explained. "And for me, some of those moments were incredibly gut-wrenching to film. But he had a fearless attitude about it: whatever got him to the next gig, the next chance to play, the next opportunity to chase that high of connecting with fans. If this film helped in that pursuit, it was worth it to him.”
Di’Anno: Iron Maiden’s Lost Singer is scheduled to be released sometime during the summer of 2026.

No One Saw It, But Kelsea Ballerini Wore Her Late Dog's Name Over Her Heart at the Grammys
Kelsea Ballerini turned heads on the 2026 Grammys red carpet in a dazzling, beaded backless dress adorned with paisley details. But for the "Cowboys Cry Too" songstress, the most meaningful part of her look was hidden inside, an intimate stitching that paid tribute to her late dog.
On Instagram Stories, Ballerini shared a close-up of a heart stitched inside her dress, positioned over her own heart, with the name "DIBS" embroidered inside.

The touching tribute comes less than a month after Ballerini announced Dibs' passing on Instagram. The artist shared that Dibs had died on Jan. 7, and included a series of heartfelt photos and videos with her beloved pup, including a throwback from when she first got him, a sweet moment of Dibs visiting her on the set of The Voice, and a video of Ballerini and her boyfriend, Chase Stokes, playing with him by the pool.
"[T]here are no words to articulate his role in my life, but i couldn’t have done the last ten years without him, and he will always be my soul dog…and i pray and believe we’ll find each other in every life," her caption read.
"[H]is love and reach can’t be captured in an instagram photo dump, or in a caption, but here’s a look at some happy from dibs. thank you for loving him so loudly with me. i feel like the luckiest girl in the world that i got to be his dog mom, greatest gift of my life," she added.
Ballerini was nominated for Best Contemporary Country Album at the 2026 Grammys for her record Patterns. The award ultimately went to Jelly Roll for his studio album, Beautifully Broken.

On the Grammys red carpet, Ballerini didn't shy away from addressing her reconciliation with Stokes, which made headlines in December 2025, just three months after the couple called it quits following two years of dating.
"I feel like outwardly, it looked a lot more dramatic than it was," Ballerini shared with Entertainment Tonight. "And that was quite the learning lesson for us."
Though Stokes was not by her side at the music event, she did share that he was there while she got ready. "We’ve been together for quite a while now and done a lot of life together and he was with me getting ready today and he’ll be with me when we wrap. I love love and I believe it in it."
