‘Modern Family’: Julie Bowen and Ty Burrell Star in Funny Skit for an Important Message

Thu, 05/07/2026 - 3:29pm

There is another reunion between Modern Family stars. Julie Bowen and Ty Burrell played a married couple, Claire and Phil Dunphy. Families at home watched their characters raise three children for years. They are back to give a message to real families with their new partnership.

Ty Burrell and Julie Bowen Promote Teen Meningitis Awareness And Vaccine

The actors star in a video playing parents, and it's styled like Modern Family with them speaking to the camera. "Kids, career, former costars, who text all the time," Bowen, 56, said after looking at her phone.

"Oh, that would be me," Burrell, 58, admitted. "Julie and I are both real-life parents of teens. So yeah, I do reach out now and then," he later said. He claimed it was for advice from teenage slang to meningitis.

The actors are part of GSK’s Ask2BSure campaign, making parents aware to ask their teenager's doctor about the risk of meningitis and the vaccine. The age risk range starts at 16 to 23 years old as they are in close quarters with other young people. The rest of the video follows Burrell and Bowen as they go on a tour about meningitis with their fake kid, Sam.

Bowen has three kids with her ex-husband Scott Phillips. Their first son, Oliver, was born in 2007. Twins, John and Gustav, were born in 2009.

Burrell married his wife, Holly, in 2000. They adopted Frances in 2010 and Greta in 2012. So the costars grew their family as they played the Dunphys.

Modern Family ended after 11 seasons in 2019. It's currently available to stream on Hulu.

Iconic Rockers Named ‘Greatest Band’ of Rock’s ‘Golden Decade’

Thu, 05/07/2026 - 3:27pm

The 1970s represented what BBC Music Magazine recently called rock’s “golden decade,” an era when albums became ambitious artistic statements and bands evolved into global cultural forces. In a new ranking of the 15 greatest bands of the 1970s, the publication celebrated the artists that helped define the sound, spectacle and attitude of the decade.

Before revealing the who was named to the top slot, let's take a look at which bands made the Top 5.

Landing at No. 5 was Queen, praised for blending “heavy metal, vaudeville, and classical music into massive stadium anthems.” The publication highlighted frontman Freddie Mercury’s “incomparable four-octave range” and the band’s theatrical live performances that changed expectations for arena rock.

At No. 4, Fleetwood Mac earned recognition for turning personal turmoil into immaculate pop-rock craftsmanship. The magazine pointed to Rumours as the defining example, calling the band’s ability to transform collapsing relationships into timeless radio staples part of its enduring mystique.

The No. 3 spot went to The Rolling Stones, whose run from Sticky Fingers through Some Girls was described as the blueprint for the rock-star lifestyle. According to the ranking, the band remained “dangerous throughout the entire following decade” while many of its contemporaries softened or drifted into trends.

Just missing the top spot was Pink Floyd at No. 2. The magazine singled out the group’s immersive, conceptual albums, especially The Dark Side of the Moon, which famously stayed on the charts for nearly 15 years. Their sprawling soundscapes and philosophical themes helped redefine what a rock album could be in the 1970s.

But the No. 1 position ultimately went to Led Zeppelin, which the publication called the “undisputed champions of the 1970s.” The ranking praised the band for becoming “the biggest band on the planet,” breaking attendance records once held by The Beatles and setting the standard for hard rock’s golden age.

The magazine credited the group’s legendary chemistry, from Jimmy Page’s towering riffs and production work to Robert Plant’s unmistakable vocals, John Paul Jones’ versatility and John Bonham’s thunderous drumming. It also highlighted the band’s “flawless sequence” of 1970s albums, including Led Zeppelin IV and Physical Graffiti, as proof of its unmatched creative run.

For generations of rock fans, the debate over the greatest band of the 1970s will never really come to an end. But according to BBC Music Magazine, no group better captured the scale, sound and ambition of the era than Led Zeppelin.

Their towering run of albums and arena-shaking live shows helped define an entire decade of rock music before the band’s story was suddenly cut short following Bonham’s death in 1980. Rather than continue without him, the remaining members chose to disband, sadly bringing one of rock’s most celebrated eras to an abrupt end.

1959 Rejected Novel Became the Greatest Horror Film of All Time

Thu, 05/07/2026 - 3:25pm

Give the master of suspense a rope, and he’ll turn it into a masterpiece that leaves his critics gasping.

When Alfred Hitchcock set out to adapt Robert Bloch’s Psycho, released in the spring of 1959, he did so against industry skeptism. The book was widely dismissed as low-brow pulp fiction, and Hollywood studios were wary of its dark, controversial subject matter.

Underestimated, Hitchcock forged ahead and delivered a gem The Guardian and American Film Institute would later rank as the greatest horror movie of all time.

Although Bloch’s novel was generally well received within genre circles, mainstream critics at the time didn’t warm to the lurid subject matter — a story centerd on a deeply disturbed killer running a secluded motel. Inspired in part by the notorious crimes of real-life 1950s Wisconsin murderer Ed Gein, the novel pushed beyond typical suspense fiction with much more graphic and unsettling prose. Hollywood hated it even more, with French auteur Francois Truffaut famously calling the book “amateurish and implausible,” SFF World shares.

Even Hitchcock’s screenwriter, Joseph Stefano, reportedly “hated” the book, despite staying incredibly loyal to the text with his screenplay. Paramount Pictures, for its part, were initially reviled by the source material, putting up significant resistance because the studio considered Psycho to be too sordid and unmarketable. Not to mention a censorship nightmare. Rejecting Hitchcock’s project, Paramount stripped his funding and banned him from film on the studio’s lots. 

Sixty years old and working on a shoestring budget, Hitchcock still managed to make the most remarkable film of his career. Starring Janet Leigh, Anthony Perkins, and Vera Miles, the director saved money by shooting on Universal Studios' lots, stretching his Alfred Hitchcock Presents TV crew, and filming in black and white, saying the monochrome look will “have so much more impact.”

It was only after Hitchcock’s masterpiece that the novel was finally recognized for its structural genius and psychological horror, eventually hailed as a groundbreaking exploration of insanity.

There’s a fun anecdote about Hitchcock and Psycho. According to Variety, Hitchcock bought as many copies of the novel as he could so the twist ending wouldn’t be spoiled. Seems like he was successful in keeping the secret. When the film was released in 1960, audiences were blindsided by the film’s twists and turns. Early reactions described unprecedented shock, terror, and astonishment. The film was an instant success, redefining the horror film blueprint and outmaneuvering Hollywood on his own terms.

There are three things guaranteed in the world today: Death, taxes, and Jeopardy! being on. Believe it or not, the iconic game show has been on the air for over 60 years (though the modern incarnation we know and love technically debuted in 1984). Under the watchful eye of Ken Jennings (who himself was a record-breaking champion), Jeopardy! puts three people's trivia skills and reflexes to the ultimate test. And so many of the greats to grace those podiums started by simply watching the show as it aired on weekdays, as millions have done for over half a century.

Here's a spoiler-filled recap of who won Jeopardy! today, plus the answer to Final Jeopardy.

What was Final Jeopardy today?

Final Jeopardy today was in the category "PLAYS AND PLAYWRIGHTS."

The clue: "The first version of a 1960s play by this man had a slightly different title, ending with 'Meet King Lear'"

The answer: Who is Tom Stoppard?

Williams faced a much tighter game as he aimed to defend his title.

Yoas had the lead going into Final Jeopardy with $12,600, while Williams and Yan were tied at $9,200 each. She needed to wager carefully to protect the lead, while Williams and Yan needed correct responses and aggressive wagers to stand a chance. Williams wagered his entire total, which paid off when he answered correctly and walked away with double at $19,800. Yan opted for a more conservative wager of $3,402, got it right, and landed second place with $12,602. As for Yoas, she wagered $5,861, answered incorrectly, and dropped to third place with $6,739.

How Stanley Tucci's 'Devil Wears Prada 2' Zinger Led to a TJ Maxx Collab

Thu, 05/07/2026 - 2:43pm

Meryl Streep and Anne Hathaway lead the charge in The Devil Wears Pradamovies, but co-star Stanley Tucci is often in the mix stealing scenes.

The Oscar-nominated actor, 65, reprised his role as Runway magazine staffer and art director Nigel in The Devil Wears Prada 2. And thank goodness for that.

In the brand-new sequel, Andy (Hathaway) makes her return to the magazine at one point, and Nigel chimes in, “Look what TJ Maxx dragged in.” Add that to the list of Tucci's epic one-liners across both films.

Don't let the jab fool you, however. The renowned actor and director is now turning the quote on its head and embracing being a “Maxxinisto” in a new ad campaign with the longtime retailer.

"They came to me just a little while ago, and they said, “Would you want to do this commercial?” And I thought it was really funny, Tucci told The Hollywood Reporter in an interview article published Thursday, May 7. "We got Ryan Reynolds’ company [Maximum Effort] involved in it, who shot it, directed it, came up with a concept with TJ Maxx folks."

He continued, "I just thought it was so funny, smart. I was like, why not? If you can go to a store and buy designer goods for a lot less and you’re gonna get them in the shop itself, I have no problem with that!"

"Stanley Tucci sets the record straight about TJ Maxx," reads the caption of TJ Maxx's YouTube upload of the all-new commercial on Thursday, May 7. "He now stands corrected and very well dressed." Check it out below.

Fans have already flooded the comments section of TJ Maxx's Instagram post featuring the funny ad to show their support of the unlikely collaboration. "This is ICONIC 👏 marketing 10/10," wrote one user, while another person commented, "No better Ambassador for TJ Maxx….well done @stanleytucci !!!😍"

This 12-Time Tony-Nominated Musical Comedy Extends Its Broadway Run

Thu, 05/07/2026 - 2:39pm

Schmigadoon! officially opened on Broadway on April 20, and the musical comedy is here to stay until 2027.

Following its 12 Tony Award nominations, Playbill announced that Schmigadoon! has extended its run until January 3, 2027, at the Nederlander Theatre in New York City.

Schmigadoon!, which has been nominated for Best Musical, is produced bySaturday Night Live’s Lorne Michaels, based on the Apple TV+ series of the same name. The show takes place in the magical town of Schmigadoon, “where every day is a musical.” A current-day New York couple finds themselves stuck in this town, and only their love can get them home.

The show stars Alex Brightman as Dr. Josh Skinner, a surgeon. Brightman said that Skinner’s biggest quality is an aversion to musical theater, which he said is “counter to [his] entire life.”

“As such a lover of musical theater, there is something very difficult about being in the show, watching this happening and trying to remember that I have to hate what I'm watching,” Brightman said in an interview with Broadway Buzz. However, he called the show's environment a “joy bomb.”

Brightman’s co-star, Sara Chase, who plays Melissa Gimble, was recently nominated for her first Tony Award. She said that when she received the news, she was “in shock all morning.”

“I’m so grateful that that show has gotten so recognized, because I think it's so well deserved,” Chase said to New York Theatre Guide. “I just love it, and I really hope other people come and discover it as well.”

Chase said that the show is “just pure joy.”

“I want [people] to know that when they come to see Schmigadoon! they can leave their troubles at the door for two and a half hours,” Chase said. “They will be filled with hope and inspiration and a big smile on their face.”

Tickets are available now for Schmigadoon! until January 2027.

The 'Poo-nami' Problem: How Sewage Is Ruining a Beloved California Beach

Thu, 05/07/2026 - 2:32pm

People from near and far have traditionally flocked to the famed Coronado Beach in San Diego for an idyllic escape. The upscale resort town boasts pristine sands, turquoise waters, and the iconic Hotel del Coronado—where rooms cost upwards of $1,000 per night. But lately, paradise has a decidedly unpleasant smell.

As many as 38 million gallons of wastewater per day from Mexico have increasingly rendered this idyllic seaside hub off-limits, turning what should be one of California's most beautiful beaches into a public health crisis, one which some are referring to as “poo-nami” (yes, it's okay to chuckle.) And it's not just the water that's the problem—it's the air, too.

When Paradise Turned Toxic

In 2025, the beaches in front of the historic Hotel del Coronado were shuttered for 129 days due to the fecal flood, many of these during peak summer. For a destination whose entire economy depends on tourism and recreation, that's devastating.

Even non-beachgoers aren't spared. The entertainment director at the Coronado Shores condo community told the NY Post that he's forced to close his windows several times a week to keep out the sewer-like odors wafting from the contaminated waters.

While Coronado Beach is still open, there are multiple warning signs around the water due to high levels of bacteria that may cause illness.

Why Is Coronado Beach Dealing With This?

The culprit is the Tijuana River, which carries wastewater directly into the Pacific. While Tijuana's sewage has affected the U.S. for years, pollution has surged amid a population boom in the border town, whose population has more than doubled over the past 30 years to 2.3 million, straining its wastewater resources.

The problem extends beyond beach closures. According to a recent survey cited in the NY Post, symptoms of exposure to hydrogen sulfide gas included respiratory issues, headaches, stomach illness, and even cognitive issues such as difficulty concentrating. Children are reportedly waking up with headaches, seniors are struggling to breathe, and residents describe feeling like prisoners in their own homes.

San Diego County Board of Supervisors Paloma Aguirre has called it the "worst environmental disaster in the United States" and called on Governor Gavin Newsom to declare a State of Emergency for the Tijuana River crisis.

What Are They Doing About It?

The Trump Administration says it's taking action. The administration negotiated two new agreements with Mexico—the Memorandum of Understanding in July 2025 and Minute 333 in December 2025—committing both sides to speed up project timelines. The EPA also completed a 100-day expansion of the South Bay International Wastewater Treatment Plant, which prevents an additional 10 million gallons per day of raw sewage from reaching U.S. waters.

But for Coronado residents and the tourists who used to flock there, these improvements have come too late.

Sally Field Reveals the Film Her Ex Burt Reynolds Didn’t Want Her To Do: ‘He Threw the Script at Me'

Thu, 05/07/2026 - 2:31pm

Sally Field is looking back on the downfall of her relationship with Burt Reynolds and the movie that made her realize their time together was ending.

The legendary film and television actress, 79, is known for roles ranging from Mrs. Doubtfire and Forrest Gump to Not Without My Daughter and Absence of Malice. While she got her start in the ’60s as Gidget and The Flying Nun, she progressed into a layered career filled with tremendous roles that solidified her as one of Hollywood’s most talented actresses. Now back with the Netflix adaptation of Remarkably Bright Creatures, based on Shelby Van Pelt’s 2022 blockbuster novel of the same name, Field is looking back on one of her Oscar-winning roles: 1979's Norma Rae.

“It was the beginning of me pulling away when he didn't want me to do Norma Rae, called her a whore, and it was because she had some sexual past. He threw the script at me," Field told PEOPLE. "He wanted to control me, and because I was standing up, he said, 'Boy, you're letting this get the better of you.' And I said, 'This is the better of me.' And I went and I met with [director] Marty Ritt. I did the film. But it was the beginning of me finding my legs."

Reynolds didn't want her to promote the film at the Cannes Film Festival, but she went anyway.

"It was a standing ovation for like 10 minutes, and I started to cry," Field shared. "I just was like, 'What?' After I had worked so hard to get out of television, to even be considered for anything, and here I was."

When she won the Oscar for the role, Reynolds refused to attend. Ultimately, they broke up for good by 1982.

“Being Norma at that time was exactly what I needed, because to learn how to stand in her shoes, I think I said this, I could feel my own legs,” says Field. “I could feel my body getting stronger. Because I was having to portray how she grew up, I started to grow up, and I eventually just wouldn't be manipulated and humiliated like that. And ultimately I left.”

Who Does Sally Field Play in Remarkably Bright Creatures?

In the film, Field plays the lead role of Tova Sullivan, a grieving widow and aquarium cleaner who works nights and builds a relationship with Marcellus, an octopus voiced by Alfred Molina. Check out the trailer for Remarkably Bright Creatures below.

The film premieres on Netflix on May 8, 2026.

‘Teen Mom’ Star Catelynn Baltierra Calls Out ‘Disgusting’ Adults for Body-Shaming Carly Online

Thu, 05/07/2026 - 2:30pm

Teen Mom’sCatelynn Baltierra has something to say about body shamers. The 34-year-old recently revealed that ‘certain pages’ were stealing photos of her first child, Carly’s, prom pictures. And as if that wasn’t bad enough, Baltierra claims adults are now body-shaming the 17-year-old.

Catelynn and her now-husband, Tyler Baltierra, rose to fame after filming MTV’s 16 and Pregnant and Teen Mom. As original cast members from the show’s first season, the couple’s story featured a heartwrenching journey of hard decisions, ups, and downs. Unlike the other teen moms, Catelynn chose adoption for her daughter, Carly. And while Carly’s adoptive parents, Brandon and Teresa, did appear on 16 and Pregnant and Teen Mom, the relationship eventually became strained, and they stopped filming the show.

Even though Carly hasn’t been on camera in years, the series’s fans and followers still seem to find photos of her. And according to Catelynn, this isn’t okay.

Baltierra posted a video to TikTok earlier in the week, saying, “Why do grown adults feel the need to comment on children’s and minors’ bodies, okay? First of all, saying that she looks like a skeleton, or she needs to eat cheeseburgers, or she’s too skinny.” The reality TV star went on to add, “It’s disgusting. Aren’t we grown here? Do you guys not realize that people can be skinny-shamed? It’s not, you know, just a fat thing.”   

Catelynn continued slamming the adults who took to social media, body-shaming Carly, adding, “It’s horrible. Knock it off. Grow up. My children have very, very fast metabolisms, look at their father. Okay, skinny…Keep your opinions to yourself when it comes to children. It’s disgusting, and it needs to stop.”

Catelynn and Tyler Baltierra Have Faced a Body-Shaming Backlash Before 

This isn’t the first time the Baltierras have been at the center of a body-shaming controversy. In 2023, Tyler fiercely defended his wife when comments on one of his own selfies spurred a serious backlash. After Tyler posted before-and-after Instagram pics of his fitness journey, several Instagram users made outrageously negative (now-deleted) comments about Catelynn. Not only did Tyler defend her, but plenty of the couple’s fans showed their support.

One commenter wrote, “Now that is a good man and husband right there! Society’s messed up views on beauty is disgusting! Beauty comes from within and comes in all shapes and sizes!” Another added, “People are saying Cate should get in shape, anyone ever consider the woman has four children…she looks amazing. I’m over here still trying to lose the baby weight it’s been two years…Looking great you two. Always loved you guys when I watched the show.”

LeAnn Rimes and Eddie Cibrian’s Relationship Timeline: From Affair and Fallout to 15-Year Marriage

Thu, 05/07/2026 - 2:28pm

Plenty of celebrities have cheated on their spouses, but few of them have been as candid about it as LeAnn Rimes, whose affair with Eddie Cibrian remains a central part of her narrative to this day. The two met on the set of the Lifetime movie Northern Lights in 2008, while she was married to Dean Sheremet and he was married to Real Housewives of Beverly Hillsalum Brandi Glanville, and struck up a romance that sent tabloids into overdrive. 

"I did one of the most selfish things that I possibly could do, in hurting someone else," she said in 2010, publicly owning up to her infidelity for the first time. "I take responsibility for everything I've done. I hate that people got hurt, but I don't regret the outcome."

She and Cibrian went on to marry in 2011, and remain husband-and-wife to this day. Keep reading for a closer look at their complicated but long-lasting love story.

Who was LeAnn Rimes’ first husband?

Rimes was married to Dean Sheremet, whom she met in 2001 when he was working as a backup dancer at the Academy of Country Music Awards. The pair married the following year, when Rimes was 19 and he was 21, and for a long stretch, they appeared to have one of country music’s more stable marriages. In 2008, the year Rimes met Cibrian, they enthusiastically hosted a “seven-year itch” party for friends and family. 

“We wanted to remember how blessed we are, and how excited we still are about each other,” Rimes told People at the time. “My ankles and my feet hurt because I was jumping around on the dance floor so much!” Soon, she added, they would start a family. 

But by July 2009 the young couple was separated amid reports of Rimes’ affair. 

Speaking out in a 2015 interview with Nat’s Next Adventure, Sheremet recalled the moment he realized his wife was stepping out on their marriage.

"There was this bar that everyone hung out at after set and I remember coming down the stairs and seeing the two of them shooting pool together,” he shared. “I could just tell by the body language that everything had changed. She's shooting pool, shooting tequila, in a tight tank, tight jeans, over the knee boots and she's standing across from him, playing with the pool cue … My stomach dropped. I literally felt like I got hit."

After his divorce from Rimes, Sheremet studied at the French Culinary Institute and pivoted to becoming a successful chef and TV personality. 

Why did LeAnn Rimes leave her first husband?

The short version is that she fell in love with someone else; the long version is more complicated than that.

In an interview with Shape, Rimes said her relationship with Sheremet was “great, but ultimately it wasn't a fulfilling marriage for either of us.”

"We got married so young,” she continued. “I was 19 and he was 21, so as we got older, we grew apart."

Still, she didn’t justify her infidelity. “I think any relationship is hard to get out of, and I don't think the way I did it was right,” she said.

For his part, Sheremet told Nat’s Next Adventure that his marriage to Rimes had its cracks before her affair. One of the main problems? He abandoned his career for her. 

"I was a professional dancer. She was a superstar. I knew that one of us had to sacrifice something to have a healthy marriage,” he said. "...It would have been unfair for where she was in her career for me to ask her to pump the breaks. I thought it would be better for me to take all of my creative energy and ideas and put it into her."

Eventually, that led to resentment. "I have my own dreams and goals and I felt like there wasn't room for me,” he explained. “..."As it went on, there were a lot of animosities that built up. I felt like I was never having my needs met so there was fighting.” 

Still, he wasn’t expecting the “f--king disaster” that befell their relationship. “Even though there was tension, we were still talking about the next chapter, about starting a family,” he shared. “I remember feeling earlier on like, 'I can't wait till 30. We'll have a kid, slow down a bit.’”

Today, Sheremet shares son Atlas, who will be 8 in August, with ex-fiancé Vanessa Black

When did LeAnn Rimes and Eddie Cibrian start their affair?

The relationship began while filming Northern Lights in 2008 and came to light in March 2009, after Us Weekly published pictures, taken from a video security camera, of Rimes and Cibrian having an intimate dinner at a Laguna Beach restaurant in March 2009. (They were seen holding hands and kissing.) 

At first, both denied the rumors. “It is a fabricated story that is using random snapshots as connective tissue to create a scandalous relationship,” a representative for Cibrian said at the time

But by July 2009, their respective marriages were over and the media frenzy — and backlash — was relentless.

"It got really messy, but I have learned a lot from that and I'm not glad it happened, but I know why it did,” Rimes said in 2011. "I can't fight this public scrutiny," she added. "What happened is not who I am. It's not me at all."

Years later, she reflected on the public response in a 2025 interview with the wellness platform Flow Space.

“I realized very quickly that there are a lot of women who’ve been hurt. Like, I’ve been on both sides of that coin — I’ve been cheated on, too, so I know that feeling,” she said. “But so many women don’t know what to do with that anger… I was a target that was just easily projected upon. And once I realized that, things got a lot easier.”

When did LeAnn Rimes and Eddie Cibrian get married?

The pair got married on April 22, 2011, in a private ceremony at a home in California. The couple had reportedly invited guests to what they said was an engagement party, only to surprise them with a wedding instead. 

Marking their 15-year anniversary in 2026, Rimes wrote on Instagram, “Day by day, we walk hand in hand through the rollercoaster of life… and god, I'm so grateful that it’s with each other. We've been through so much in our 15 years as husband and wife. we know how to ride the waves 🌊, hold each other in times of need, mend what needs mending. I'm so proud of what we have created together. 15 years is just the beginning.”

View this post on Instagram What is the age difference between LeAnn Rimes and her husband?

There’s a nine-year age gap. Rimes was born on Aug. 28, 1982, while Cibrian was born on June 16, 1973. 

Did LeAnn Rimes ever have children?

No, Rimes has never had biological children. She’s a stepmother to Cibrian’s two sons, Mason, 22, and Jake, 18, from his marriage to Glanville.

“People always assumed, ‘She must not be able to have kids because she’s not having kids,’” the “How Do I Live” singer said on Today. “I’m like, ‘That has nothing to do with that.’”

“I just felt so strange that there had to be a reason other than I don't want kids,” she continued. “That should be reason enough. I didn't need anything to satisfy my own ego of ‘This is my kid that I birthed or came from me.’ It just didn't cross my mind. I was really happy raising his children and they're such great kids.”

Does LeAnn Rimes get along with Eddie Cibrian’s ex-wife, Brandi Glanville?

Not exactly. Glanville fired shots at her ex husband and his new wife for years, and one of her most pointed complaints — that Rimes was "copying" her life — appears to be coming back around.

It all started in 2017, when Glanville accused Rimes of “harassment,” claiming the Grammy-winning artist was “obsessed” with her. “[I have] really made an effort to take the higher road with Eddie and LeAnn for the sake of my boys," she said in a statement to The Dirty. Then she went on to claim that Rime was "copying my life from going to my dentist, dermatologist, plastic surgeon to even attempting to see my trainer of 14 years."

Cibrian shot back via a representative, saying in part, “I normally don’t respond to Brandi's foolishness but I will not allow false and reverse accusations to go unanswered about my wife. LeAnn is a fantastic stepmom to the boys and is always gracious to their mother. Having to put up with Brandi's made up drama all the time is extremely frustrating.”

Eventually, the animosity seemed to fade, and in 2021, Glanville said that she and Rimes were “like sister wives.” 

“Eddie’s going to be in my life for the rest of my life,” she explained on an episode of the “Hollywood Raw” podcast with Dax Holt and Adam Glyn. “We bicker still like we’re married when we’re not … It’s me and LeAnn and Eddie.”

“The truth is LeAnn and I get along really well,” she admitted. 

Cut to April 2026: Glanville openly criticized Rimes for sharing a video of her painful jaw release therapy. "I just don't know why you share that," Glanville said on her Brandi Glanville Unfiltered podcast. When cohost James Maas pointed out that Rimes had been sharing her health journey more broadly, Glanville shot back, "Oh, like me. So weird." (Glanville recently revealed that ruptured breast implants led to an infection that caused facial disfigurement.)

"Well, I hope she gets better,” Glanville concluded.

A month later, responding to rumors that Rimes was coming up in "casting conversations" for The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, Glanville reacted on X. "I hope it's true about RHOBH," she said. "I mean she got everything else of mine- husband, kids, boobs, bronco, random illnesses she might as well just be a housewife and finish it off once and for all."

Prince William and Kate Middleton Tour Schools as They Look for Prince George’s Next Steps

Thu, 05/07/2026 - 2:25pm

Prince William and Princess Kate have been spotted at Oundle, a prestigious private boarding school, amid rumors that Prince George may attend in September.

The 12-year-old George and his two younger siblings, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis, currently attend Lambrook School in Berkshire, near the family home at Adelaide Cottage. Oundle School is reported by the likes of the Metro to be a frontrunner for Kate and William to send all three of their children.

"William and Kate’s visit was terribly exciting," a source told The Sun. "They are considering other schools, but people in Oundle have their fingers crossed that George will be starting here in September."

The school was founded in 1556 and is the third largest boarding school in the UK. The school charges over $61,000 a year for full-time boarding school students and prides itself on its traditional values, sports and music curriculum, and its eco-consciousness. Pupils can board from the age of 11 and have the opportunity to study Latin, Chinese and Ancient Greek.

There is still a chance that the royal couple will send their children to either Eton, where Prince William and Prince Harry studied or Kate’s former school, Marlborough College, where Pippa and James Middleton also studied.

In March, the Prince and Princess were seen with the young heir on a tour of Marlborough College, where students were reportedly sent inside by a "highly stressed teacher", and the royals visited. A source told the Mail On Sunday that the teenagers were told to "go and sit in the library, or anywhere else, stressing they absolutely could not be outside."

In April, royal broadcaster Helena Chard told Fox Newsthere has been "much speculation surrounding Prince George’s next school." She revealed that "discussions have been circulating" for a long time, with the Prince and Princess of Wales reportedly "arguing and debating the decision for years."

2005 Classic Nintendo Game Starring an Iconic Mario Character Was Released 21 Years Ago

Thu, 05/07/2026 - 2:25pm

Yoshi Touch & Go (which was called Catch! Touch! Yoshi! in Japan) was a 2005 video game for the Nintendo DS that allowed players to control where the characters went using the touch screen and microphone. Yoshi’s Island, which had a similar concept, was released on the Nintendo DS a year later, in 2006.

Unlike Yoshi’s Island, the player was not directly controlling the characters. Yoshi moved forward with a baby on his back while the player drew lines with a stylus to create ‘clouds’ that helped them avoid obstacles and discover new routes. Players could also draw circles around the enemies to trap them in bubbles and blow into the microphone to eliminate clouds.

In an interview with Nintendo Online Magazine in 2005, game designer Keizo Ohta said, “The conception started as Balloon Trip. We initially knew we wanted to incorporate drawing images as the integral game element. It was after E3 that Mr. Kimura and some other designers joined our group to further elaborate on our game idea. It was our collaboration that lead to the final product.”

He continued to explain that the game didn’t use any buttons. “I wanted the game player to concentrate on drawing,” he said. “It's an interesting way to control your character.”

The color of the Yoshi that you played as changed based on your score in the vertical section of the game, where you had to save a baby from falling and collect coins. The lowest score allowed you to play as a green Yoshi, but higher scores resulted in a blue, pink, yellow, red, black, orange, purple, or white character.

As one reviewer on Reddit said, “I love Yoshi Touch & Go. The only mode worth playing is Marathon but it's really fun seeing how far you can get. It's definitely the best in the Yoshi's Island series, with the obvious exception of the actual original Yoshi's Island game.”

Although some players believe this game worked well as an arcade experience, others were disappointed that there wasn’t much of a story to it. As another review said, “I hated it as a kid because it had no replay value besides getting a higher score.”

The game, which was originally released 21 years ago, was re-released on the Wii U Virtual Console in 2015.

Brendan Fraser Has a Roller Coaster Confession About 'Mummy 4' Prep

Thu, 05/07/2026 - 2:13pm

Appearing on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon on Wednesday, Brendan Fraser confirmed that The Mummy 4 is officially happening, and that he's already started preparing the only way that made sense. By riding the Universal Studios attraction built around the original films.

'I heard that to get you in character for the role, Universal took you to your ride,' Fallon said, flashing a photo of Fraser aboard the Revenge of the Mummy coaster, mid-drop, grinning. 'Can you spot me?' Fraser joked. Fallon then added 'I have a ride as well' (referring to his Ride Through New York Starring Jimmy Fallon ride at Universal Studios). Sheepishly, Fraser responded 'and I haven't been on it yet.'

The crowd erupted. Fraser, 57, confirmed he plans to fix that soon. 'Count on it' he said, and got back to the Mummy news people wanted to hear.

'We're going to get the band back together,' he said of the fourth Mummy film, slated for release October 15, 2027. 'We're going to give the audience what they have been bothering all of us for for the last 20-whatever years.' He stopped himself before saying too much. 'I should probably stop talking like this before I give anything away. However, I know that — please wish me luck. I'm doing my best to get this 57-year-old gear in shape.'

Rachel Weisz, who played Evelyn O'Connell in the first two films but sat out the 2008 third installment, is confirmed to return alongside Fraser. The film will be directed by Radio Silence duo Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett, known for Ready or Notand the recent Screamfilms.

The Mummy news wasn't the only thing Fraser brought to Fallon's couch. He's also set to appear in the WWII drama Pressure, in theaters May 29, playing General Dwight D. Eisenhower in the tense 72 hours before D-Day. Fraser said he knew almost nothing about the history when director Anthony Maras approached him, but what sealed the deal was a side-by-side photo of himself and Eisenhower that Maras sent over.

'I was like, 'Me, really? I don't really look like Ike Eisenhower,' he told Fallon. 'And then he sent me a photo of myself alongside Dwight Eisenhower, and I went, 'Oh, okay.'

Pressure centers on the little-known story of a British meteorologist whose forecast, dismissed by most of the Allied command, persuaded Eisenhower to delay the Normandy invasion by roughly 14 hours, exploiting a narrow break in a storm system. Fraser put the story in its simplest terms. 'Eisenhower said, 'We're going on the advice of this meteorologist.' Years later, when Walter Cronkite asked Eisenhower how he'd pulled it off, Ike's answer was blunt. 'We just had better weathermen than the Germans did.'

Fallon also praised Fraser's Whaleco-star Sadie Sink, who is currently playing Juliet opposite Noah Jupe in a West End production of Romeo and Juliet in London. Fraser didn't hesitate: 'She's playing the part she was born to,' he said. 'It was written by William Shakespeare.'

Now that Julianne's brother, Derek Hough, is a dad to a baby girl, Everley, he's speaking out about how wonderful an aunt his little sister will be.

“I mean, she's gonna be the best aunt in the world. My girl's gonna get spoiled — that's for sure — from Aunt Julianne. That's for sure,” he told PEOPLE just last month, calling dad life "the best."

Hough also noted that becoming a parent has changed his focus quite a bit.

“You know, being in the industry, you wanna do great in your career and be at the top of the game and do this, achieve this,” he said. “But being a dad now — that's the pinnacle. That's the top. Everything else is now just a bonus, you know what I mean? That is the echelon right there.”

Deciding to End Her Acting Hiatus

Back in March, Hough spoke out in an interview with Entertainment Tonight about why she decided to end her acting hiatus with a return to the big screen in The Bride!.

“You know, I get to do the thing that I love which, first and foremost, is dancing. It’s acting, it’s singing,” Hough explained. “This is not a musical but my character specifically is a role that people go…and escape and have that fantasy world of what’s possible.”

Keith Urban and Hootie & The Blowfish Set to Rock the 2026 AMAs

Thu, 05/07/2026 - 2:05pm

The volume for this year's American Music Awards has turned up! Keith Urban and Hootie & The Blowfish are two of the newest musical acts added to the award show's performance lineup.

Hootie & The Blowfish's appearance is especially significant. The group, which made headlines in 1996 after winning the AMA for Pop/Rock New Artist, will return to the AMA stage nearly three decades later. The band is set to perform hits from their debut album, Cracked Rear View, which helped them achieve their first AMA trophy, along with pop culture fame and music industry success. In celebration of the album's 30-year anniversary in 2024, Hootie & The Blowfish reflected on its legacy with Billboard.

"It seems to resonate in people's lives in a very big way," said guitarist Mark Bryan. "Those stories like [it 's] their wedding song or they say, 'It got me through my father's death,' always keep coming back to us, and it never gets old. What a great full-circle way as a songwriter to know that you've connected with people. As a songwriter and musician, you can't ask for more. It's such a dream come true to have made an album that has connected on such a level with people like that."

Urban is scheduled to perform a song from his 13th studio album, Flow State, set for release on June 12. Alongside fellow musicians such as Dolly Parton and Michael McDonald, the country superstar was also inducted into the Musicians Hall of Fame in April. Amid his recent career success, the former American Idol judge has made headlines for his 2025 divorce from Nicole Kidman and a rumored rift with his daughters, Faith Margaret and Sunday Rose.

Keith Urban and Hootie & the Blowfish join KATSEYE, Teddy Swims, Riley Green, Maluma, Twenty One Pilots, and sombr, with more performers to be announced. Additionally, actress/rapper Queen Latifah will host the star-studded event.

The 52nd American Music Awards will air live on CBS and stream live on Paramount Plus, May 25.
