It's been about five years since controversial comedian Jeff Garlin was formally fired from ABC's hit sitcomThe Goldbergs, and fans only continue to speculate over the star's alleged actions behind the scenes.

Roughly a year after Garlin's dismissal from the show, cast member Wendi McLendon-Covey gave an interview where she openly discussed her relationship with Garlin, saying that she had "PTSD" from her time working alongside the comedian.

“That was a long time coming,” McLendon-Covey told Andy Cohen, referencing Garlin's firing from the show in an interview for SiriusXM (via Cracked). As the actress put it, Garlin's exit came after the cast's repeated complaints regarding the actor. “That it finally happened, it was like, ‘Okay, finally someone is listening to us.’”

As for the specifics of her co-star's actions, McLendon-Covey asked Cohen to steer the conversation in a different direction, not wanting to shed light on what it was like working with the Curb Your Enthusiasm actor behind the scenes.

"I’m exhausted by that topic and the PTSD of it all," the actress said. "I just feel like the less people know about that, the better. No one benefits from knowing anything.” 

Garlin's tenure on The Goldbergs came to an end after a three-year HR investigation found evidence of repeated misconduct by the actor. Defending his behavior in an interview with Vanity Fair, Garlin said, "I have my process about how I’m funny, in terms of the scene and what I have to do. (Sony) feels that it makes for a quote ‘unsafe’ workspace.”

“To me, if you’re a stand-in on a show and you don’t like the content or the behavior... If someone’s going after you, that’s different," Garlin said when asked about an allegation saying he physically and verbally acosted a stand-in on the show. "But in terms of in general — well, then by God, quit, go someplace else.”

One of the most talked-about films at the 2026 Cannes Film Festival is also one of the strangest.

Acclaimed South Korean filmmaker Na Hong-jin premiered his long-awaited sci-fihorror movieHopethis week, and early reactions from critics and festival audiences have been anything but quiet. The film, which stars Michael Fassbender and Alicia Vikander, blends cosmic horror, survival thriller elements and apocalyptic science fiction into a story many viewers described as overwhelming in the best possible way.

Na is already well known among horror fans for the 2016 cult hit The Wailing, a movie that steadily built a passionate international following over the last decade. Because of that reputation, anticipation around Hope had been growing for years before the Cannes debut finally arrived.

According to early coverage from festival critics, Hope centers on mysterious beings arriving in a remote port town, setting off violent and increasingly surreal events. Several reviewers noted that the film shifts dramatically in tone and scale as it unfolds, moving from grounded suspense into large-scale cosmic horror territory.

Trade publications including Variety, Deadline and the Associated Press all highlighted the intense audience reaction after the screening. Some critics praised the movie’s ambition and visual style, while others admitted they were still trying to process exactly what they had watched. That split response only fueled more online discussion among horror fans eager to see footage, plot details and reactions from Cannes attendees.

Part of the fascination surrounding Hope comes from its unusually international cast and production scale. In addition to Fassbender and Vikander, the film reportedly mixes Korean genre storytelling with big-budget science fiction visuals rarely seen in Korean horror cinema. Fans online have already started comparing the project to classics like Alien and Annihilation, with The Wrap calling it a 'masterful monster movie.'

The timing also helped push the movie into the spotlight. Horror has been having another major mainstream moment lately, with audiences embracing ambitious genre projects both in theaters and on streaming platforms. Cannes reactions often create momentum months before wide release dates are announced, and Hope appears positioned to become one of the most anticipated horror releases on the horizon.

For Fassbender, this is not necessarily new territory. He played the calm but sociopathic and driven synthetic human in Alien: Covenant.

For now, fans outside Cannes are still waiting for a full trailer and official release plans. But after days of intense festival buzz, one thing already seems clear, Hope has become the rare horror movie capable of dividing audiences while making nearly everyone curious to see it for themselves.

Survivor 50 is here! Every week, Parade's Mike Bloom will bring you interviews with the castaway most recently voted off the island.

After doing a lot of work on his body, Jonathan Young came into Survivor 50 ready to build a body of work. Known for perhaps being the best provider and challenge performer of the new era, the Season 42 star knew he could easily steer into the curve, his opponents thinking they'd know what they'd get out of him. But, like many of the fish he has caught during his Survivor career, something much deadlier was lurking underneath the surface. Jonathan put in the work between seasons to dimensionalize his skills, from strategic and social tactics to practicing fire. And it paid off for him swimmingly, as he directed votes, got revenge, avoided being targeted, and even defeated his previous rival in the Final Four Firemaking. But unfortunately, the protege of Boston Rob Mariano was fated to have the same outcome as his mentor: Finishing in second place on his second season.

Jonathan started the game with the familiar beats that made him a standout player in the first place, catching fish and leading his tribe in challenges. But even on solid land, he wanted to play fluid, looking to still be his genuine self, while opening his game up to more to exaggeration and deception. Unfortunately for Jonathan, he got a heavy dose of that doled his way in his first vote of the season. Thinking he was locked in with his fellow new-school players to get out Rizo Velovic, he was left in the dark when Dee Valladares and Kamilla Karthigesu decided to Ruin the Friendship and boot Charlie Davis. Surprisingly, it was the first time Jonathan had been blindsided in his Survivor career. And he would make sure it would be the last.

Fortunately, the tribes merged the very next day. Jonathan was standing tall once more (though that tends to be his default, given his giant-like stature), working with old school and old school-minded players like Coach Wade, Chrissy Hofbeck, Stephenie LaGrossa Kendrick and Joe Hunter. And he made good on his newly claimed power immediately, steering the first two votes towards the two people who turned on him. The cycle soon after repeated itself; Coach and Chrissy got taken out in the "Double Duos" twist, but Jonathan got his revenge the next vote on Christian Hubicki.

Despite dealing with a game vascilating as much as the tide, Jonathan had his gaze fixed on one particular big fish: Ozzy Lusth. A challenge threat with a public idol was too threatening to keep in the game much longer, and so he kick-started a plan to shake Ozzy loose like a coconut from a tree. Unfortunately, he chose to bring Aubry Bracco and Rick Devens in on the plan, who proceeded to immediately blow it all up at Tribal Council, leading to not only Ozzy being spared, but Stephenie getting booted in one of the wildest nights in Survivor history. While down, Jonathan was certainly not out, especially when his next challenge win came with a "Power Broker" Advantage that allowed him to attend both Tribal Councils that night. He spent the afternoon putting in the steps (and the work) to jump in on two big votes. And yes, that includes finally getting rid of Ozzy, as he and the other men were able to keep him in the dark enough not to use his idol.

From there, Jonathan was able to coast on safety, his eyes set on getting rid of any of the biggest threats to the potential of him winning. But he was quite literally put in the line of fire on Day 25, when Aubry Bracco not only won a clutch Immunity Challenge, but put him and Rizo Velovic into fire. After going out at this same stage last time, all of Jonathan's preparation was represented in this moment, as he quickly finished off the "RizGod." With friends on the jury and a solid game to speak to, Jonathan felt he had a very good shot at the two-million-dollar prize. But, like a jar of uncooked rice, the jury got their licks in. While Jonathan got votes from three of his allies, it was ultimately not enough, giving him a palpable reaction at the live reunion.

The day after the finale, Jonathan talks with Parade about his incredibly mixed emotions following the finale, which jury member he believed helped turn the jury against him, and which other juror admitted they should have voted for him.

Jonathan, how are you doing right now? I can't imagine what's going through your head at this moment.
Hey, Mr. Mike. I'm doing good. That's a lie. I'm not doing great. I've been up since three this morning, just trying to go over it all in my head to figure out where I went wrong and where I should have zigged and where I should have zagged.

I mean, just looking at you at the live reunion, it seemed like you were quite emotional in the immediate aftermath of the winner reveal. Which jury votes surprised you the most?
I mean, I truly believed I played the best game. That's the truth. And I was disappointed in Devens. I thought I didn't know much about Christian and Emily, and I know they've played with them. But I played a lot with Devens. We had a rivalry, and I thought he respected that more. So I was disappointed. I don't know yet what to take from all this, but I'm sure God will show me something.

It's interesting you say that. Because I feel the rivalry with Joe was the much bigger one highlighted. But you had one with Rick as well?
Yeah. Me and Devens, just him telling all my plans that we were trying to get Ozzy out, and then following him around with the idol. We played closely, but just not together, I guess. So I expected more, so that maybe that's on me. I shouldn't expect more.

Walk me through your thoughts on final Tribal Council. Did your expectations on whether you'd win the game change over the course of the evening?
You want to know the truth? I knew as soon as the ball dropped out of Joe's hand that I had lost the game. I knew I lost $2 million as soon as Joe dropped that ball. Because, for some reason, I've just never been good at Simmotion. Which is crazy to me, because I've always fidgeted with thrown and juggled. But just as soon as that ball dropped, I knew it was pretty much over, and that I was going to get second. Because I knew what was going on, if you noticed, mostly the whole time. Except the Charlie vote; that one threw me pretty for a loop.

Of course, a major part of your gamewas the fact that you were able to bring in more social and strategic aspects, all under the expectation that you would be a provider and challenge beast. Considering all the prep you put it, did changing your game come easier or harder than you expected?
I started changing right when I got home from Season 42 and when I watched it for the first time. And being around Mr. Rob helped me a lot, because he would critique me. Mr. Rob's not exactly a shy guy, so if he saw something that I need to work on, he would tell me. And that's what you need is a mentor, a brother, a friend like that that'll help you and not be shy to tell you when you're wrong or when you mess up. And I'm proud to say that I've changed my game. Most people, they say it and they don't do it, but I did change my game completely. And maybe I should have made it more known at the end, how I changed my game, but I don't know. We'll have to figure out for the third time. I don't know exactly what to learn from this, but I promise you, I'll learn something. I promise.

Well, let's get into some of these relationships that you were able to build out there.You and Coach clearly clicked from Day 1, and were number one allies up until his boot. Talk to me about working with the Dragon Slayer.
Coach was a breath of fresh air every time I saw him with the jury. I felt like he helped me a little bit to keep fighting because I had a feeling that I had his vote, and I did. And that was always a good reminder, because Coach is going to play like Coach, and what you see is what you get a lot of times with Coach, and I like that. I like that Coach is going to be my friend, hopefully for the rest of my life.

What about Joe? The two of you seemed to be in lockstep once your other allies were eliminated. What was your dynamic like?
Joe, I don't think he could help but be a good guy. He can't help it. If he lies, it's kind of written on his face. Because when you have somebody truly genuine, it's hard for them to lie and be a bad guy. So, Joe, I could count on, if he ever lied to me, I'd be able to tell. And I knew that if he ever tried to vote me out, it'd be very hard for people to convince him to vote me out. So Joe was somebody that I knew well, and I wanted to keep next to me the whole game.

We saw a few times that you and Cirie would work together, and she told me last week you had a working relationship. Talk to me about that.
I knew that I couldn't trust Miss Cirie. She told me that, "Oh, I got you if I make it to the end. I got you if I make it to the jury." But that's so not what happened. Miss Cirie basically rallied the troops when she got back to Ponderosa. Snd that's part of the reason I think I lost. Do you think she just has the influence in the game like she did, where she's got four people asking her, "Hey, how do we vote?" You don't think they're doing that at Ponderosa? And is by happenstance that the people that surrounded her and asked her, "Well, how do we vote?" are the same people that didn't vote for me in the finale? I'm just curious. That's at least that's what I see. I know the game doesn't end once you hit Ponderosa, because people talk about it all the time. It doesn't stop till the finale is out. So that's what I think happened.

Let's talk about this Ozzy vote, a move you had been putting in the works for a while. Talk to me about how you were able to contribute to arguably the biggest move of the season.
Ozzy told me at the premiere that he was bitter, and that's part of the reason that he voted for Aubry. He's like, "Yeah, going back, I should have voted for you." And that's not a great thing to hear, that's not a great thing to hear at all. But I think that I knew that him going into Tribal, he had his person picked, and if you have your person picked, you want to help them win. So, if you go back and watch the finale, it was pretty obvious that he was wanting Aubrey to take the move of him going out, because he did spill the beans. No disrespect to Aubrey, though she played it perfectly with, "Hey, Ozzy just told me every single move, and we need to get him out." I was really shocked that Ozzy did that. That really shocked me.

Finally, you were able to turn tragedy into triumph in the finale, making it through Final 4 firemaking after falling short last time. I'm curious, if you had gone down in flames again, who would you have voted for out of Aubry, Joe and Rizo?
That's a hard one. I wouldn't vote for Rizo, because I think that Rizo is, at that point, pretty one-dimensional. As far as the camp life, he doesn't have much of that going on. But I'd have to consider Joe. Because I feel like he's made the Final Three, he didn't get any votes or credit for making it to the Final Three. I think he deserves more credit than he got, I do. And I think that when you know somebody's down, don't kick them. That's a huge thing that I saw in the finale. I saw my buddy down, and he was getting kicked by some of the questions. I don't like people being put down like that.

Denny’s is better known for their Grand Slam breakfast than slam dancing, yet the diner is diving headlong into the mosh pit with a new collaboration with Texas hardcore band Live Without.

Now through June 2, Denny’s is serving up the Mozz Pit Burger—a cheeseburger with mozzarella sticks slammed into the bun topped with marinara sauce--at select locations in Houston, Los Angeles and Miami. This unique collaboration commemorates an event that took place at a Houston area Denny’s in 2013.

That year, the fledging band discovered a local Denny’s in the Houston area was closing soon, so they talked the restaurant’s management into renting out the diner for a hardcore show. It was all captured on video, including the immortal words of singer Kris asking, “What the f--k is up, Denny’s?”

Denny’s is embracing the viral moment with the Mozz Pit Burger. In a recent post announcing the limited-edition burger, the diner played up the connection to the profane viral moment with a series of posts on their official Instagram account.

“mozzarella sticks on a burger? yeah. we went there. the limited edition MOZZ PIT BURGER is now available at select locations in houston, los angeles, and miami through tuesday, june 2nd and will absolutely have you saying “WTFIUD?” it posted, along with a photo of the new burger offering.

Not only has the moment inspired the new burger, it brought Live Without back to a Denny’s for an encore performance captured in a online spot for the collab. And the band may come back for more.

“after 13 long years, @dennysdiner x @livewithouttx reunite.
oh and if this music video gets 500k likes my boss said we can do a live show 👀.
#wtfiud,” reads the post.

Fans approved of the post in the comments.

“No one has any idea how much this means to me,” wrote one.

“IHOP has been quiet ever since this dropped,” added another.

“Getting this past legal must have taken years I'm obsessed with this,” yet another fan wrote.

As of this writing, the post had more than 259k likes, so the Live Without/Denny’s fans are going have to rally the troops to get the band back for another live show.

Until then, they can enjoy a Mozz Pit Burger.

Survivor 50 is here! Every week, Parade's Mike Bloom will bring you interviews with the castaway most recently voted off the island.

"There was an anxious, nervous girl on the Brains tribe who came in and had a panic attack on Day 2. She was supposed to go home that night, but somehow, she gets to the Final 3. Some say she should have won, some say she had no social game. She didn’t care what they said. She comes back for Game Changers and somehow gets to the Final 5. She comes back for Edge of Extinction. Everyone loved her, she was the underdog, and then she fell from grace and left Survivor world completely.

"And then she took some time to work on herself, and she came back for Survivor 50. She played this game for 137 games. She changed who she was. She changed how she played. She did everything to get to the end. I want to show people no matter who you are, if you believe in yourself, you can outlast more than you ever thought you could. You can push, and you get to the end of the game, and you can evolve just like Survivor."

We couldn't have said it better ourselves, Aubry Bracco. A decade ago, Aubry blazed a path to the Final Three, where she just lost out on the million in one of the most controversial endings in Survivor history. The years since then were not nearly as kind, from tough performances to a self-appointed exile from the fanbase. But, last year, she got the call to come out on Survivor 50, and, as she told us in the preseason, she was excited to both reclaim herself and the game she's loved for so long. She battled against being on the outside, as well as walking on eggshells, navigating multiple alliances. And, in the end, she was rewarded handily. A decade almost to the day after losing out on a million dollars, she found herself in the exact same spot, this time leaving two million dollars richer.

Despite how poor things went the last time, Aubry was eager to step in the sands of Fiji, feeling she's evolved both as a person and a player. But that step got off on the wrong foot during an unfortunate conversation with Genevieve Mushaluk, where she outright told the Season 47 standout she was unsure about working with her. The Canadian then worked to ice out Aubry from both tribes they were on together, all but ensuring her first trip to Tribal Council this season would be her last. But as Aubry admitted to luck being a large part of Survivor, she was able to benefit from a couple of key things. First, she never went to Tribal before the merge. And second, she was gifted an idol courtesy of Billie Eilish (vis a vi Christian Hubicki). While she started the individual game believing Rick Devens had sent it to her, in her first vote of the season, she wound up in a majority among her idol benefactors. And so, after days of tension building, Aubry was able to strike first, taking out Genevieve and keeping her idol intact.

Unfortunately, getting rid of her rival didn't mean the postmerge would be a smooth ride for Aubry. Indeed, she immediately became public enemy number one for her idol, forcing her to quickly play her "scarlet letter" of an idol to satiate her Puritanical tribe. Even still, Aubry was a "middle person" on the outside, seen as a floater who wasn't necessarily locked into any alliance. But that also gave her the flexibility to pivot when needed. As she put in one of her many incredibly well-spoken confessionals, “I’m not afraid to make big moves and jump ship if the people I’m working with are not working for me." Take Rick, as an example. The two had a familiarity and a relationship simultaneous compared to a married couple and a mother and child from their time on Edge of Extinction. But she was letting him become front-page news, allowing her to make headlines to be hidden beneath the fold.

Despite professing how patient she was with waiting to the right moment to strike, Aubry's biggest move of the season was arguably the one forced on her. At the Final Nine, the tribe was split up again, but she was not nearly as lucky with the draw than she was with the Blood Moon. With the other outsiders away, she was the de facto boot. But, unlike the Aubry from ten years ago, she chose not to express her anxiety, but embrace it — and more importantly, energize it. So when Ozzy Lusth, seeing an opportunity to prime a potential juror, told her some choice secrets, she was off and running, spreading the information up and down the beach. And, astoundingly, it helped put the wheels in motion for one of the biggest moves of Survivor 50, as Ozzy got completely blindsided with an idol in his pocket. Aubry operated like she had nothing to lose — and it was the move that got her on the path to the win.

It was around this point that Aubry was starting to feel the heat. Not from the Fijian sun, but from the pressure of repeating the same mistakes from her most successful game. It was clear that, after being prey for the majority of the season, it was time to go big-game hunting. Aubry pivoted her strategy to taking out the biggest threats before they could even sniff the end, turning things on Rick, Cirie Fields, and Tiffany Ervin despite her tight relationships with them all. Of course, that meant that Aubry was now public enemy number one. But, yet again, she fought with her back against the wall, as her hard preseason prep paid off when she won her second Immunity Challenge in her Survivor career. After taking out the last threat to her game in Rizo Velovic, the path to Aubry's redemption was set. At a final Tribal Council once more, she was able to speak to the tactics she utilized, weaponizing information to make sure she could vote wherever she needed to. And the jury rewarded her the win (and it turns out, a brand-new car) handily, making good on a moment she has been thinking about for ten years.

The day after the finale, Aubry talks with Parade about how surprised she was by her win, the variety of relationships (and rivals) she made throughout the season, and what she feels her Survivor legacy is.

Aubry, considering how many months, yet years, this has been in the making, I can't imagine what's going through your head. How are you feeling right now?
[Gets emotional.] I'm so relieved, Mike. It's been 10 years. Two days ago was the 10-year anniversary of the finale of Survivor: Kaoh Rong I was 30 then, I'm 40 now. I've really worked so hard to learn, to grow, to take in all the feedback — against my better judgment sometimes. And I really feel like I worked hard. I studied this game, I took myself out of it, I worked on my intuition. I study these players quite a bit. I studied game a bit. So I just can't even describe it. It's an honor. Much work has gone into this season from the players, the press, production. It's just such an honor.

I mean, it's still surreal. I'm like, "Do we have to go out and compete in something else? What's the twist?" But I'm feeling the love, and I'm so grateful. It's just surreal that we're finally here, Mike. I mean, just wild to think I was with you in the jungle less than a year ago.

Well, let's talk about how things ended less than a year ago, at the final Tribal Council. As you left Fiji, what did you think your chances of winning were? Were you surprised you were ultimately crowned Sole Survivor?
Yeah, I mean, I'd say the three I was the least certain about were Emily, Christian and Devens. They're very good about being tight-lipped. I didn't know where they were. I was very confident Stephenie, Chrissy and Coach had gone to Jonathan, and I was pretty sure that I had the other five. So I was not sure what was going to happen.

I felt like I left it all on the table. But I do not count my chickens before they hatch, especially considering Kaoh Rong. I've learned that I'd rather live in a world where it didn't work out to temper my expectations. Everyone's like, "Aubry's always never happy." I'm like, "I just live in a tempered expectations world." I've learned from Survivor that if you take the high too much, then the low feels lower. I try to stay in the pocket, the only way to survive.

Were Emily, Christian, and Rick just not giving anything away on Day 26? Or you're talking about in the months leading up to the finale?
Well, here's the thing: Christian, Devens and Emily are amazing players. And they told me, "We're not telling anybody who we voted for." And I respect that, and I never bothered them once. I never tried to get it out of them, and I respect them so much for that. So, I mean, they're the kind of players where they would be your best friend, and I wouldn't be sure.

Well, let's get into this Final Tribal, because you've been to quite a few on both sides. How did you feel about your performance as the evening went on? Did you get a sense anything was changing one way or the other?
There was pushback. I mean, it was a wild Tribal. So, first of all, I didn't have support on the Kaoh Rong jury, so I was pleasantly surprised. I was so honored that Tiff, Cirie, Ozzy had my backs. I mean, I voted them out of the game. But there was also that back-and-forth. Jonathan also had Chrissy and Stephenie fighting for him. So it was like every question, I'd say something, I'd get pushed back, Jonathan would say something, he'd get pushed back. So it really was kind of neck and neck feeling.

There was a conversation at one point about how your "open for business" strategy may imply passive gameplay. What's your reaction to that perception?
Was I aware of the perception? Yeah, I was. I knew I was playing a very subtle game. But here's the thing. I'm proud of my game, but I'm more proud of myself because I knew how to play the game that I needed to play for that particular concoction of people. And for those people, I knew that there were 23 other people who are the heroes of their own stories. There were big personalities. There were pre-existing relationships. Even though the game I played is not the game I would naturally play. Natural Aubry is Kaoh Rong Aubry, go chaotic. I had to have so much control with this group of people.

And a lot of that was taking my foot off the gas far more than I thought I would have to, especially at the merge when I came in with no social capital. So I knew that people kind of counted me out, but then I used that to my advantage. I was on the fringe. It was lonely, I often felt like I was on the outside looking in. I kept saying to myself, it's like I'm watching a zoo exhibit, and there's all these amazing animals, and I'm playing with them, but I'm almost like a step away from it.

So I could see how they thought I was being passive, or I wasn't super involved in votes. But I was in on every vote. I had relationships that were close enough to people. I was close enough to people where they let me in, but not far enough away that they would ever like forget about me. But I mean, I could see that. I mean, I knew that Jonathan had a dominant proactive game, and that some people who might not see the subtlety and appreciate the nuance.

Let's get into some of these relationships over the course of the season. You called Tiffany your "Survivor Angel" when she told you you were on the outs in the premerge. But, by the end, you try to lead the charge against her, and there's clearly a lot of fallout between you two. What was your dynamic like?
That's a great question. So, when we got to the merge, I mean, I had a rough pre-merge. I got on the wrong side of things very quickly, and I didn't want to overplay myself out of it. And Tiffany was my Survivor angel. But we got to the merge. She had other relationships. She bonded very closely with Cirie.

So, Tiffany and I always had a great working relationship. We would talk to each other before votes. But it was never this, "I'm your number one" kind of thing. We just have this good working relationship, we had a respect. And I think I said when I called her my Survivor angel, I said I would go as far as I could with her, and I did. So when she was upset, I mean, this is the thing I love about Tiff. She's passionate; she wears her heart on her sleeve. But at the end of the day, she did have my back, and I think she's an amazing competitor. I always had a working relationship with Tiffany, and I felt like I tried to do that with a lot of people. I was like, "I will work with you. You write my name down, I don't give a hoot. I will work with you on the next vote."

Cirie is someone you walked into the game having worked together in Kaoh Rong. But she told me the two you were surprisingly distant during the postmerge. Talk to me more about your perspective on your relationship.
So it was interesting. My recollection of Cirie at the merge is that she had heard that I called her a mastermind. I had to distance myself from her in the premerge because people were putting things together. I played with Ozzy, I played with Cirie, I played with Devens. And I told her, "Look, Cirie, I had to say that to save myself." And she said to me, "This can work as long as we're not seen talking to one another."

And one of the gifts of having worked with Cirie we've always had this intuitive connection. I know how she moves in the game. I can sense when she's starting to lose trust in someone. And along the way I would bring her back little tidbits, little seeds. Like in the scene with Jonathan, Stephenie, Devens, and I, where Ozzy's name comes up. I immediately went up to Cirie, and I'm like, "I'm hearing Ozzy's name. I don't want him to go." So I would constantly plant seeds. With Cirie, I felt I could communicate kind of telepathically. And I always knew I would only go to a certain distance with her. And I would also say, Mike, I do think I was a bit aloof this season, and that was very intentional. Something I learned in Kaoh Rong is that if you get too close to people — at least it's happened to me — and you get to the end, they're too hurt to vote for you.

To that point, let's talk about what happened with Genevieve, considering how much this dictated the first half of the season for you. Where did this tension begin? And how did it develop throughout the postmerge?
Gosh, it was so hard. I mean, I always thought she was the dangerous player. I was in conversations very early on the original Vatu. I remember I was with Stephenie and Colby. People talk. Angelina was called chaotic, Rizo was called lazy, and I said Genevieve was a dangerous player, but I was not not open to working with her. And that conversation you see, which I clearly did not do what I had to do, I actually approached her. And I said, "Hey, there's an awkward vibe between us. Can we have a business meeting about this?"

And it was a very long conversation. And in that conversation, I said, "Genevieve, you may have heard that I called you dangerous, but that doesn't mean that I don't want to play with you." I proceeded to talk to her every night. I would talk to her about finding the idol. I would say everything to her about what I was thinking in the game, and because I know that for her, information is currency.

Then when we got to Kalo and Tiffany told me it was going on with Genevieve, I was distraught because I thought I was trying to build this strategic relationship with Genevieve, and she would tell me that that's what was going on. But when we were together in the same space, that is not what I felt. And it did not feel good, and I was so frustrated. Like you're following me into the woods because you don't think I feel well? I don't think so! It was like "don't pee on my leg and tell me it's raining." It did not feel good.

And I would also say, at the merge, I went up after I said, "I know we're not even talking, Genevieve. But we have bigger fish to fry. We might have to work together." And I'll say, the one thing I wish you saw was the night she went home. I went up to her, like, "Hey, can we talk?" And she said to me, "I'm not talking to you." So my door was always open. And I really did try, and I understand and respect that I didn't try in a way that worked for her. But I tried.

Perhaps your literal crowning moment was this Ozzy blindside. What was your reaction when he gave you all of this information? And how were you able to utilize it throughout the day to save yourself?
I was dead. When we pulled those rocks, you see me,I'm crying. I thought I was gone. Those guys had been bonding a lot. I was shocked. It was like I was being given this weird Survivor gift. And I just was like, "Aubry, keep listening to him, keep listening to him, keep listening to him." And look, the Ozzy vote was very complicated. Everyone wanted Ozzy out of the game. There were a lot of consensus votes in 50. I don't think any one person [drove]. I mean, except Cirie's just a magician, I don't care what anyone says.This is a game we're going to turn over and over for years. And there's nuances, and people have different roles and different votes. And when Ozzy was talking to me, I'm like, "Come on, Ozzy! Keep telling me." And I went right back, and I told each of them everything he said to me, and where they fell in his plans.

You came into the game with over 100+ days on Survivor. And you spoke plenty about how much your past was at the forefront of your mind, particularly your loss in Kaoh Rong. Did that surprise you at all?
No. I think I said in the penultimate episode that the body keeps the score. I mean, I will say that, Mike, I had a very hard time the first few days. I was not my best self, wasn't feeling well. I also have this really intense bodily reaction when I go back to Fiji. In the time, in the place, I feel very deeply. And I wasn't surprised. When you play too much and you're a feelings person, you feel.

So then, let's talk about your entire journey. We've had plenty of people talk this season about what their impact has been on the show, and vice versa. What do you think your Survivor legacy is?
I think when you look at Outwit, Outplay, and Outlast, I've always resonated the most with Outlast. And I think it's that resilience and that grit. I don't make anything look easy, Mike. But I find a way.

Rik Emmett is not ruling out a future with Triumph after the band’s Rock and Roll Machine Reloaded Tourwraps in June.

The Canadian rocker, who co-founded the band in 1975 with Gil Moore and Mike Levine, revealed in a new interview that he’s having a lot of fun on the reunion tour—and he hinted that there could be more to come. He’s just not making any commitments just yet.

In an interview published by the Macomb Daily, Emmett, 72, said the sight of longtime fans smiling and singing his songs has been “a beautiful gift” to get in his 70s. He added that he will take some time off after the tour, but isn’t against more shows or new music at some point.

“I will say this. I wasn’t sure if this (tour) would happen, and it has, and I’m really having fun, and it’s really great,” Emmett said in the May 2026 interview. “So that probably speaks well for the future, but I don’t want to start speaking for the future yet. I don’t want to go there. Do I want to go into the studio and make a Triumph record? Not now, thank you. I just want to enjoy this and have a chance to wait for the smoke to clear and see how I feel at the end, and then see what else I might want to do.”

Emmett admitted that he's having so much fun on the tour that he even asked himself, “Why wasn’t I doing more of this sooner?” “But then there’s other moments where I go, ‘I’m not sure my knees can take it,” he added.

Emmett, the voice behind the songs “Lay It on the Line,” “Fight the Good Fight," and “Magic Power,” left Triumph in 1988. But he reunited with the hard rock power trio in time for their Edge of Excess tour in 1993, which was their last tour before Rock and Roll Machine Reloaded. Many fans believed Edge of Excess would be the band's final foray on the road.

In 2020, Emmett told Music Life Magazine that he was officially “retired” from touring. "I mean, I have retired,” he said. “I just got to a point where I still love to play, and I don't mind performing, although there is a little more anxiety now than there used to be.”

In addition to some physical pains, Emmett said he didn’t enjoy the travel involved with a major tour. “I have retired from the road, but I haven't retired from creativity," he said at the time.

Complete with a pedestal-style base, it's a bit more distinctive than your average bowl, and its thick construction makes it especially durable for long-term use.

Carmen Electra was a TV staple of the '90s, and the former reality star is still serving up looks on the red carpet.

Electra, 54, rose to stardom during the MTV era as the host of the dating show Singled Out, following Jenny McCarthy. A staple of the red carpet back in the day, the pop culture icon always kept fans guessing with her sultry looks and famous boyfriends. She sported the iconic red swimsuit on Baywatch and later focused on movie roles such as Scary Movie and Cheaper by the Dozen 2. But today, Electra tends to fly under the radar. That's why it's such a surprise to see the stunner hit the red carpet at The Abbey's 35th Anniversary Party in Los Angeles, California. Wearing a leopard print bunny outfit with a bow tie and matching ears, the beauty made it clear that she's still got it, several decades after the '90s.

How Electra Keeps the Spark Alive in Relationships

The star, who has had high-profile romances with stars like Prince, Dave Navarro, and Dennis Rodman, opened up back in February about how she manages to keep the spark alive in relationships.

"You definitely wanna keep the spark alive, but you wanna be with someone that you love being with because that's definitely what's gonna keep the spark live anyway, right?" she told Fox News Digital. "So someone that — you just love their spirit, you love who they are as a person, someone that's not a downer. I like artists, like people that are into art, whatever their art may be, all that good stuff."

Her Secret to Confidence in her Fifties

When it comes to being a confidence queen at 54, Electra said it's all derived from her mission to be the best person she can be.

"My confidence, wow, just comes from trying to be the best person I can possibly be," she said. "I'm a Taurus, so I'm very stubborn, but I love life, I love food, I love people, I love love, and I'm very passionate. And I'll always be that way. So, that's never going to stop."

The finale of Survivor is hardly the time for castaways to give their competition a leg up. But Joe Huntercontinuously goes against what's expected of the competitors. Here is how Survivor 50 finale viewers reacted to the Fire Captain helping out a finalist.

The final four came down to Aubry Bracco, who won immunity and picked Jonathan Young and Rizo Velovic to go to fire for the third final spot. That meant Joe, 46, had the easy job of watching them as he sat next to Aubry, 40.

Rizo, 26, was stressed as he practiced fire making because he couldn't get it started. Joe watched and decided to help him, as he had with Eva Erickson in Survivor 48.

"I just...I had to help him," Joe said in a confessional. "I just gave him the basics, the motions, how to hold your hand. How to hold the blade. How to put it on the material. Just give him the confidence to say that you can do this. Give him a fighting chance."

A Reddit thread was created with Joe's other quote, "In a sword fight, at least give everybody a sword." Fans underneath talked about their respect for the finalist.

"Joe is a bad Survivor player but a terrific person," a popular comment claimed. "I’ll take that any day of the week because the game is for a short time but his generosity really sticks out for outside of the game."

"Helping Rizo there was actually a great survivor play as well," another argued. "If Joe had a bit better of a social game, that could have been a solid jury management move to try and swing Rizo."

The final tribal council ended with Joe not getting a jury vote. "Too bad no one gave Joe a sword in FTC," one commenter wrote.

The finale ended with the jury voting Aubry as the season winner, making her $2 million richer.

Halloween Horror Nights at Universal Studios is one of the most anticipated and well-known events that the park holds each year. Over the past 35 years, guests have been able to experience the best of Universal’s horror films, immersing them straight into the action. One of the biggest attractions are the various themed haunted houses that are scattered throughout the parks, all of which are based off of major hit horror movies.

Today, Universal has announced that a four-time Academy Award Winning horror movie will be the theme of one of the houses. That movie is Sinners: the 2025 film that is now the highest grossing original horror film in history. If you’re one of the few that hasn’t caught the movie yet, it takes place in 1930s Mississippi, where twin brothers return to their hometown to open a juke joint–only the night spirals into a battle against vampires and other evils that haunt their town.

When you visit the Sinners house during Halloween Horror Nights, you can expect to be transported back to the Juke Club. Not all is fine and dandy, however, because quickly after entering, you will come face to face with vampires riddled with hunger. As you work to get through the house unscathed, you’ll run into some of your favorite characters from the movie.

When explaining why Sinners was the perfect choice for a new haunted house, Mike Aiello, Senior Director of Entertainment Creative Development at Universal Orlando Resort, shared, “It’s rare for a film to fully satisfy hardcore horror fans while also inviting new audiences into the genre—and that’s exactly what Sinners does. Its world, characters and intensity will translate into a relentless haunted house. We can't wait for our fans to step inside and experience the horror firsthand in a way that only Halloween Horror Nights can deliver."

There's no denying that "Are You Lonesome Tonight?" became one of Elvis Presley's most defining hits of his career and the 1960s. In reality, the hit track wasn't an original by the rock 'n' roll singer and was covered by multiple artists before him.

The traditional pop track was first created by vaudevillains Roy Turk and Lou Handman in 1926. They took inspiration from Ruggero Leoncavallo's Pagliacci and from William Shakespeare's As You Like It, with the line "All the world's a stage." The track became a popular ballad about heartbreak, with it getting covered and released first by Charles Hart.Vaughn De Leath later recorded the song as a B-side and was the first to become commercially successful. It landed at No. 4 on the charts.

Jerry Macy and John Ryan recorded a duet version, and Henry Burr ranked at No. 10 on the charts with his version. Over the next 20 years, it would be recorded by plenty more artists, with many landing on the Billboard charts. It wasn't until 1960, with Elvis's version, that it became the biggest hit on the charts, landing at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 and Cash Box. It would become a classic and long-lasting staple of the singer's live performances.

Elvis Presley recorded "Are You Lonesome Tonight?" after returning from the military

While Elvis was serving the final months of his two-year military service, the singer began experimenting with a new sound. After his return, he went straight to his first recording session to pick tracks for his newest album.

According to SongFacts, "Are You Lonesome Tonight?" was selected at the suggestion of his manager, Colonel Tom Parker. It was one of his wife's favourite songs after she heard it during Gene Austin's act, who her husband also managed at the time. Colonel's suggestion was one of the only times he interfered with Elvis's selection process.

At the time, Elvis was seeing success covering older tracks like "It's Now or Never" and was opening to cover the 1927 ballad as a way to broaden his music. He recorded the song alongside a band at 4 a.m. and performed it one more time after a failed attempt, and it became the master for the single.

Elvis's version of the song was put on hold for a while as the record label decided whether or not it fit the singer's image. They ultimately released the track, topped the charts, and became certified gold. The track's popularity then led to a response song by female singers like Dodie Stevens, Lina Lee, Ricky Page, and Thelma Carpenter.

If you love Anthropologie, you know that finding a dress in the $50 price range there can feel darn near impossible. The retailer's merchandise is gorgeous, but the prices can veer toward "Whew, can I afford that?" territory. For this very reason, I tend to hit up the Anthro sale section and filter through the top-rated to get the cream of the crop of the marked-down stuff. But every once in a while, there will be a special promo where a super-cute dress falls within my price range. And when that happens, it's glorious.

Right now, I'm looking for chic summer dresses that will be easy to pack for upcoming warm-weather escapes. So you can imagine my excitement when I stumbled upon the sleekest little black-and-white number priced at $54.60, but only for a limited time.

Celandine Racer-Neck Midi Dress, $54.60 (originally $78) at Anthropologie

The Celandine Racer-Neck Midi Dress feels like the fashion equivalent of casually getting complimented three times before noon. The racer neckline gives it that cool, sporty vibe that I find is almost universally flattering, and the front and back slits keep it from feeling too basic. Then you turn around, and there's a tie detail in the back that makes it look way more expensive and interesting than your average throw-on dress. The cotton blend is a huge part of why I love it, too, because it looks structured enough, but still soft and stretchy, so that you can actually wear it all day without immediately wanting to change clothes the second you get home.

This particular Celandine dress (that's a brand exclusively available at Anthropologie) comes in two colorways, but only the Black Onyx shown here is priced at $54.60 (again, for a limited time). The other colorway is a pretty blue and white stripe, with a promo price of $61.60, so just a tad more than Black Onyx.

In the reviews section of Anthropologie.com, shoppers rave about how flattering this dress actually is, even if the form-fitting silhouette might worry some.

"Wow," writes a customer. "Beautiful looking, very easy to wear, loved it."

Another person mentions that this will be their summer go-to look.

"This dress is so cute and perfect for summer," they said. "It's lightweight with the perfect amount of stretch. Will be one I wear over and over."

If this dress sparks joy for you and your summer plans, make sure you pick it up before it goes back to regular price. The only thing better than a stylish dress is getting it on sale.

Top Gun: Maverick actor Miles Teller has admitted he no longer feels confident doing profiles with journalists since an infamous 2015 Esquire piece labeled him "kind of a d---."

The Whiplash actor is in Cannes promoting his new film with Adam Driver, entitled Paper Tiger, but is understandably distrustful of journalists. The controversial 2014 article opened with the line: “You’re sitting across from Miles Teller at the Luminary restaurant in Atlanta and trying to figure out if he’s a d---," leading to online debate and controversy.

“That was so mishandled,” Teller told IndieWire at the French film festival. “The reason why I have not done profiles is because I said, ‘Wow, if I’m not doing this interview on camera, this person can misquote things or put things out of order or say things that didn’t happen.’ It felt like such a violation of what actually transpired.”

He added that, after reading the interview, he told his team he didn't want to do it again because he felt it didn't represent him well. "This is not life, so why would I ever want to be a part of something where they can just put that in?'” the actor who recently appeared in Michael continued.

“So it’s unfortunate that being a good person, that doesn’t sell. People want to click on the negativity. If you go to bed and put your head on your pillow and how you treat people truly, that’s what matters. That [2015] interview was like 12 years ago," Miles added.

The 39-year-old concluded that despite his media reputation, “the actors, the directors, the crew and the producers” all know who he really is because “you can’t hide who you are when you’re on set.”

At the time, Miles responded on social media to Esquire's controversial profile with: “Esquire couldn’t be more wrong. I don’t think there’s anything cool or entertaining about being a d--- or an asshole. Very misrepresenting," he wrote, per Variety.

How intense was the season premiere of Dutton Ranch? The series is a little more reminiscent of Yellowstone than Marshals is, so I imagine fans of Yellowstone will likely enjoy this series more, especially with Beth's (Kelly Reilly) no holds bar approach to everything.

Tonight, CBS will air the final episode of The Late Show With Stephen Colbert.

To commemorate the talk show, which Colbert has hosted for the past 11 years, he opened up the doors of the Ed Sullivan Theater to Architectural Digest in a set tour video for the magazine's YouTube channel.

In the video, Colbert and his team showed off The Late Show's set, balconies, backstage area, wardrobe room and more. Colbert also addressed what he hopes will happen to the famous Ed Sullivan Theater once his show concludes.

Stephen Colbert Spearheaded a Restoration of a Stained Glass Ceiling on The Late Show's Set @colbertlateshow

As Stephen Colbert explained in the AD set tour, when he was preparing to start his rendition of The Late Show in 2015, the theater's ceiling was covered with huge sound sails to help improve audio quality. However, Colbert had seen photos of the theater's original ceiling, and asked his team to rip out the acoustic sails to see if it was still there.

He was told that the ceiling had been ripped out in the 1950s — but that information was quickly proven wrong, as the gorgeous stained glass domed ceiling and plasterwork chandelier turned out to still be there. Fortunately, CBS paid to restore the original ceiling, and it's absolutely gorgeous.

The Late Show's lighting designer Michael Scricca then joined the video tour to explain how the lighting team projects images onto the stained glass ceiling and all around the theater.

The Late Show's Set and Balcony Are Filled With Meaningful Mementos View this post on Instagram

The Late Show's set and balcony are filled with plenty of Easter eggs and fun decor. For instance, on the set, there are framed photos of Beatles fans cheering on the Beatles when the band performed at the Ed Sullivan Theater.

On the theater's balconies, which are set around the edges of the stage, there are bookshelves filled with science fiction and fantasy books (Colbert's favorite genres), various hidden doors, a Captain America shield that Marvel sent Colbert and a sword Viggo Mortensen gave Colbert. There is also an original banner from the 1963 Freedom March, where Martin Luther King Jr. gave his "I Have a Dream" speech — which Colbert's mother attended while pregnant with Colbert.

What Will Happen to the Ed Sullivan Theater When The Late Show Ends?

"Because we're not being replaced by a late night show, I don't know what's going to happen to the Ed Sullivan Theater," Colbert said in the AD video. "But something should happen. It's too beautiful a space. And really, over the last 11 years, too much work has been put into it to make it a great television or broadcast performance space."

Colbert believes that the Ed Sullivan theater is "the best broadcast space in New York City. And the fact that nothing's gonna come in here breaks my heart, but someone will figure something out, and I wish them all the luck in the world, because they're gonna love it."

Music has a remarkable way of tapping into our emotions and unearthing old memories.  A song can suddenly remind someone of an old relationship, a summer they can’t stop thinking about, a difficult season of life, or even an older version of themselves they barely recognize anymore. While musical taste develops through personality, upbringing, and life experience, numerology suggests that our birth date can also influence why certain genres or artists resonate with us.

In numerology, every birth date carries its own energetic signature associated with different personality traits, emotional tendencies, and ways of moving through the world. Some people have a penchant for nostalgic, emotionally immersive music, while others connect more deeply with bold anthems, dreamy atmospheric tunes, or introspective storytelling. Read on to discover the type of music that may align most with your birth date.

People born on these dates are drawn toward the catchy beats of pop music. They love artists with strong identities, memorable visuals, and songs that instantly command attention and stick in their heads on repeat for hours.

Born on the 2nd, 11th, 20th or 29th: Dream Pop

People born on these dates tend to enjoy music that feels atmospheric, immersive, and existential, so dream pop’s atmospheric effects, layered vocals, and escapist fantasy themes resonate deeply with this group’s sensitive nature. They are drawn to music that feels comforting and nostalgic yet easy enough to disappear into for hours. Lyrics that feel like poetry really make the musical experience transcendent, especially in songs about longing, love, and connection.

Born on the 7th, 16th or 25th: Alternative Rock

People born on these dates enjoy alternative rock because the genre mirrors their introspective, multi-faceted psyche. They are drawn toward music that feels atmospheric, complex, and slightly unconventional rather than anything simplistic, glossy, or surface-level.

Born on the 8th, 17th or 26th: Hip-Hop
