Fans of Blink-182 can soon head back to the rock show as the beloved band have unveiled a trio of huge headline shows across Europe.

The California rockers have announced a trio of concerts that will take place in June 2027. Kicking off in Berlin, Germany, on June 8, the band will head to Milan, Italy, on June 13, before closing out the short run on June 15 in Paris, France. The band will be joined by rock giants Billy Talent in Berlin, and in Milan and Paris, support will come from "So Far, So Fake" singers Pierce the Veil.

Per the announcement, shared on Instagram on June 22, presale begins on June 23 at 10:00 A.M. local time. Those hoping to score advance tickets can sign up for the presale via the band's official website, and general tickets will be available on June 26 at 10:00A.M. local time.

Prior to the mini tour, Blink-182 will headline twin festivals Rock am Ring and Rock im Park from June 4 through 6.

Over the last few weeks, fans of the "What's My Age Again?" hitmakers have been speculating a tour announcement after they began sharing cryptic social media posts hinting at their fourth studio album, Take Off Your Pants and Jacket, which was released on June 12, 2001.

To mark the anniversary, the band released a special deluxe edition of the album, titled Take Off Your Pants and Jacket(25 Year Anniversary Edition), which includes all six of the vault tracks in one place. Defining late '90s pop-punk, the original release made history as the first punk rock album to debut at No. 1 on the Billboard 200.

While it's unknown if the recently announced shows will link to the album's monumental anniversary, the band will undoubtedly be playing a range of fan-favorite classics and newer material during the shows.

Bobby Prince was a video game composer who worked on iconic games like Doom and Wolfenstein 3D. Only a month ago, the Library of Congress announced the score Prince created for Doom would be preserved in the National Recording Registry.

“The video game Doom brought a heavy metal energy to MS-DOS systems across the globe, while at the same time pioneering the ever-popular first-person shooter genre. Key to Doom’s popularity was the adrenaline-fueled soundtrack created by freelance video game music composer Bobby Prince,” the Library of Congress stated.

His music was beloved by many. As reported by Level Up, “Prince’s compositional style, often fast-paced, aggressive, and electrifying, drew heavy inspiration from heavy metal. Through his friendship with John Romero, he was introduced to the music of Alice in Chains, Pantera, and Metallica, whose raw energy heavily informed the iconic soundscapes he created for Doom.”

According to a statement released by his family, Prince died peacefully on June 16, 2026. In their eulogy, they explained that the composer had a love of music that started when he was young.

“During his youth and early adulthood, he performed with many talented musicians and bands throughout the Athens music community,” they explained. “Music remained a constant thread throughout his life and was shared with family, lifelong friends, and fellow musicians. Bobby served in the United States Army during the Vietnam War as a platoon leader. Following his military service, he pursued careers in counseling and law before ultimately becoming one of the pioneering composers and sound designers in the video game industry.”

The family continued, “His innovative work helped define an era of gaming and influenced generations of players around the world. Through his compositions and sound design for landmark titles including Doom, Doom II, Wolfenstein 3D, Rise of the Triad, and Duke Nukem 3D, Bobby helped establish video game music as a respected art form. In 2005, the Video Game Industry honored him with a Lifetime Achievement Award.”

Prince is survived by his wife, two sons, and a granddaughter as well as extended family. As they stated, “Bobby Prince's Legacy lives on through his music... His love lives on through our hearts.”

Some girls just love to have fun. That is certainly the case for Cyndi Lauper, who turns 73 today, June 22, 2026.

Born on June 22, 1953, Lauper became known as the “Queen of Quirky Pop” thanks to her iconic track, “Girls Just Want to Have Fun.” It’s a song that is sung by millions even today, becoming an anthem for many.

Lauper has sold 50 million copies of her songs worldwide, standing out thanks to her neon hair and powerful vocal range. Did you know that she has a four-octave range?

While many remember her for “Girls Just Want to Have Fun,” she stood out with the power ballad “Time After Time” and “True Colors.” The more you think of her songs, the more you realize just how much you know! It’s also easy to see how she’s become the inspiration for artists such as Katy Perry and Lady Gaga. This is a woman not afraid to be herself, and she shines in positivity while doing it.

What few people will realize today is that Lauper isn’t just an amazing singer. She has been praised for her humanitarian efforts. In 2010, she was diagnosed with psoriasis, an autoimmune skin condition that causes painful, flaking rashes all over the skin. It’s something she has had to manage while performing live, and it’s something that many people struggle with.

To help raise awareness, Lauper has been vocal about her medical journey. She wants others to seek treatment as soon as possible, allowing them to manage the progression of the issue. For Lauper, it started as a minor scalp rash that was managed with the right shampoo, but after that, it spread to other parts of her body.

Also dubbed as “The Queen of Having Fun,” she hasn’t just raised awareness for psoriasis. In 2022, she launched the Girls Just Want to Have Fundamental Rights Fund, which is focused on abortion rights and reproductive healthcare. She has also long been an advocate for LGBTQ+ rights, with her third single from her first album, “She Bop,” becoming the first (and only) Top 10 song to have a direct mention of a gay porn magazine. It even ended up with a Parental Advisory sticker for the meaning behind the story in the song. “True Colors” is also a gay anthem, advocating for LGBTQ+ who have run away or are homeless.

Her first track will always be the one most people immediately think of when they consider the 73-year-old icon. “Girls Just Want to Have Fun” didn’t just bring about something fun that everyone could dance to, but it brought a new role model for women around the world, focusing on playfulness and differences in self-expression. It became the first music video to win the Best Female Video prize at the MTV Video Music Awards in 1984, and it quickly proved she was one to watch.

Few songwriters have left a mark on country music quite like Kris Kristofferson.

Born on June 22, 1936, in Brownsville, Texas, the singer-songwriter, actor and poet would have celebrated his 90th birthday today.

Although Kristofferson built an extraordinary career spanning music, film and television, he remains best known for writing one of the most beloved songs in country music history: "Me and Bobby McGee."

The song has become a timeless classic since its release, but its journey to legendary status was anything but ordinary.

Kristofferson wrote "Me and Bobby McGee" in the late 1960s, and it was first recorded by country singer Roger Miller.

However, it was Janis Joplin's version, released after she died in 1971, that transformed the song into a cultural phenomenon and sent it to No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100.

Over the decades, "Me and Bobby McGee" has been recorded by countless artists across multiple genres, cementing its place as one of the most enduring songs of the 20th century. The track's themes of freedom, loss and longing continue to resonate with listeners more than 50 years after it first appeared.

While "Me and Bobby McGee" may be his most famous composition, Kristofferson's influence extends far beyond a single song.

He also penned classics including "For the Good Times," "Help Me Make It Through the Night" and "Sunday Mornin' Comin' Down"—songs that became major hits for artists like Ray Price, Sammi Smith and Johnny Cash.

His songwriting helped redefine country music in the late 1960s and early 1970s, bringing a more personal, literary style to the genre. Alongside fellow legends Willie Nelson, Johnny Cash and Waylon Jennings, Kristofferson later became a member of the iconic country supergroup The Highwaymen.

In addition to his music career, Kristofferson found success in Hollywood, appearing in films such as A Star Is Born, Blade and Pat Garrettand Billy the Kid. But despite his accomplishments on screen, he was always revered first and foremost as a songwriter.

Kristofferson was inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame in 2004, a fitting honor for an artist whose words shaped generations of country music.

Following his death in September 2024 at age 88, tributes poured in from across the music world, with fellow artists praising his storytelling, artistry and lasting impact.

It’s been 71 years since moviegoers were first charmed by Lady and the Tramp. The animated Walt Disney classic made its debut in theaters on June 22, 1955.

The film, the love story of a pedigreed cocker spaniel named Lady and a street-smart, homeless mutt, Tramp, featured the voices of Barbara Luddy, Larry Roberts, Peggy Lee, Bill Baucom, and more. Future Fred Flintstone actor Alan Reed even lent his voice to the film.

One of the most iconic scenes in the film features Lady and Tramp sharing a plate of spaghetti, leading to their first kiss as the romantic song "Bella Notte" plays for them.

Disney himself reportedly didn’t want to include the scene at first, writing off the premise as “silly,” according to CBR. Animator Frank Thomas was able to change Disney’s mind after he animated the sequence and personally presented it to the legendary entertainment mogul.

That famous scene and others landed Lady and the Tramp on the American Film Institute’s list of 100 Greatest Love Stories of All Time.

Disney once explained that he got the idea for Lady and the Tramp after reading Ward Greene’s story Happy Dan, the Whistling Dog. In a vintage video posted by Yahoo Entertainment, Disney recalled dreaming up the pairing of a rogue pup with a classy Lady.

In another archival video, Disney described Lady and the Tramp as a “fun picture” to make. "It was an original story to start with, and as we made the picture and got to know the characters, we kept getting new ideas, and we had to fully wait to expand them because there wasn’t any set storyline," he shared.

According to a post by The Walt Disney Family Museum, Disney made a bold decision to present “Lady and the Tramp” in the widescreen format, Cinemascope, which meant the backgrounds were widened to fill the wider format. Two versions of the film had to be created for different theater formats, which meant a lot of extra work for the animators.

Lady and the Tramp remains a timeless masterpiece that continues to captivate audiences decades later. Rolling Stone ranked it among the best Disney films, adding, “The widescreen compositions are some of Disney’s very best.”

And Rotten Tomatoes still gives Lady and the Tramp an impressive  91 percent “fresh” rating on its Tomatometer, describing it as a “nostalgic charmer” and noting, “The songs and richly colored animation are technically superb and make for a memorable experience.”

Michael Gross, who played the beloved father Steven Keaton on Family Ties, is wishing his legendary costar Meredith Baxter a happy birthday, too. The duo turned 79 on the same day!

Gross and Baxter, both 79, rose to stardom on the hit NBCsitcom, which followed former hippies Steven and Elyse Keaton as they raised their family during the Reagan era. Of course, that included their aspiring capitalist son, Alex, played by Michael J. Fox in his breakthrough role, and their superficial daughter, Mallory, played by Justine Bateman. Younger daughter Jennifer, played by Tina Yothers, rounded out the bunch. The series became a favorite throughout the ’80s and highlighted the sharp contrast between the ideals of the baby boomer generation and those of their children. 

Since Gross and Baxter share the same birthday and are still close, Gross wished Baxter a happy birthday in a sweet new Instagram post.

"79 years ago today, baby Michael was born in the Central Time Zone and baby Meredith in the Pacific Time Zone. Thirty-five years later, the two of them met and played husband and wife on @nbc's FamilyTies. @familytiescentral#fans already know this, but for those who don't, "Happy Birthday, Meredith Baxter!!!" Gross captioned the throwback shot.

The former child actress played Jennifer Keaton on Family Ties. But in a sweet reunion back in 2023, Yothers reunited with her onscreen older brother, Fox, to attend the 2023 A Funny Thing Happened On The Way To Cure Parkinson’s event at Casa Cipriani in New York City. 24 years after the show ended, the duo still keeps in touch!

Ali Larter is giving Legally Blonde fans all the endorphins after showing up at the film's recent 25th anniversary reunion looking positively ageless.

Larter, who played accused killer Brooke Taylor Windham in the original 2001 film, looked stunning in a black, strapless dress featuring floral details as she reunited with co-stars Reese Witherspoon, Jennifer Coolidge, Selma Blair, Matthew Davis and Victor Garber at a New York City fan event on Saturday, June 20.

"Legally Blonde 25th Anniversary," Larter, 50, wrote on Instagram alongside photos of her look for the reunion event. "Is it even possible?! It was so amazing to reconnect with this special cast and reminisce about all our favorite scenes. Ummmm… Liposuction!"

"What a dream to be part of a movie that has inspired so many people and delivered so much laughter and pure joy," she continued, adding of Prime Video's upcoming prequel series, "Can’t wait to watch Elle!"

Larter's followers were quick to brand her an "ageless icon," with one commenter writing, "You simply do not age. It’s wild!" Another person commented, "Time has barely passed you by!! Still as gorgeous as ever," as a third chimed in, "Ali you look better than ever."

A different Instagram user gushed, "Absolutely love you girl you’re looking elegant as ever and stunningly beautiful," as another wrote, "Both you and Reese are timeless beauties."

More than two decades after Larter introduced Legally Blonde fans to Brooke's Butt-Buster Workout, Prime Video is set to debut its prequel series Elle, starring Lexi Minetree as a young Elle Woods.

Elle follows Elle Woods "in 1995 as a fish in the tumultuous waters of high school where she encounters tricky friendships, forbidden romance and questionable fashion choices," as per the official logline. "Through it all, Elle uses her family as a touchstone, and forms an even tighter bond to her mother, proving that they can get through anything life throws their way as long as they have each other. With each challenge she faces, Elle grows closer to the Elle Woods we know and love today."

Elle also stars June Diane Raphael, Tom Everett Scott, Jacob Moskovitz, Gabrielle Policano, Chandler Kinney, Zac Looker and Amy Pietz, with Brad Harder, Chloe Wepper, Danielle Chand, David Burtka, the late James Van Der Beek, Jessica Belkin, Kayla Maisonet, Lisa Yamada, Logan Shroyer, Matt Oberg and Sharon Taylor recurring.

All eight episodes of Elle debut on Prime Video on July 1.

Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young, the legendary group behind the smash hit album Déjà Vu, continue to resonate with today’s generation after earning renewed recognition for their iconic record.

Composed of David Crosby of The Byrds, Stephen Stills of Buffalo Springfield, Graham Nash of The Hollies and Neil Young of Buffalo Springfield, the band saw its album named by Rolling Stone as one of the greatest albums of all time.

With its list of 500 albums, spanning different genres, eras, bands and solo artists, the rankings unveiled the most influential, popular and timeless acts in music history, voted on by hundreds of music experts, critics, producers, industry professionals and more.

While Marvin Gaye’s What’s Going On, The Beach Boys’ Pet Sounds and Joni Mitchell’s Blue secured the top three spots, Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young made it to No. 220, all thanks to their 1970 studio album Déjà Vu.

Described as a “rock & roll powerhouse,” the record was the folk-rock supergroup’s first-ever album after recruiting Young to their star-studded lineup.

From trio to quartet, they released a number of hit songs, including the band’s cover of Joni Mitchell’s "Woodstock," which became their highest-charting single of 1970, followed by "Teach Your Children," a single written by Graham Nash, the pop-folk hit “Our House” and another standout song, “Ohio,” with all four tracks entering the Billboard Hot 100 chart.

With its number of fan-favorite tracks, their debut album as a quartet reached No. 1 on the Billboard 200.

Nash credited the Buffalo Springfield frontman for his significant contribution to the album’s success.

“Neil’s a strange energy. He brings a darker edge and a more realistic edge to our music…It did fit, though. Déjà Vu is a pretty fun album,” he told Music Radar as reported by Classical Album Sundays.

The album sold over eight million copies worldwide, further cementing their status as one of the most influential groups of the 1970s.

As Nash continues to recall, Déjà Vu had a different feel compared to their previous album as a trio.

“During the first album, we were all in love,” he told the outlet, referencing their romantic relationship with respective partners back then. “David was in love with Christine [Hinton], Stephen was in love with Judy Collins, I was in love with Joni [Mitchell]. Everything was rosy and fantastic. By ‘Déjà Vu’, Joni and I had split up, Stephen and Judy had split up, and Christine had just been killed. It was all dark.”

The former member of The Hollies revealed that “Our House” was a bittersweet reflection of his time living with Mitchell in their home in Laurel Canyon.

Two reality TV fan favorites just tied the knot in a romantic ceremony in Croatia. Love Is Blind’sGiannina Gibelli and The Bachelorette’sBlake Horstmann finally made it official, marrying over the weekend. 

Gibelli and Horstmann both looked for love in the spotlight. Giannina was an original cast member of Netflix’s Love Is Blind. The season 1 standout fell for Damian Powers, sight unseen, and agreed to marry him on the show. But sadly (or more like luckily), he said no at the altar, leaving Gibelli single. Even though they didn’t marry, the pair did stay together for over two years. 

Horstmann, who starred in The Bachelorette and Bachelor in Paradise, also failed to find true love on reality TV. While he did finish as runner-up in season 14, Horstmann caused plenty of drama on Bachelor in Paradise, with Caelynn Miller-Keyes (whom he had dated prior to filming) saying on the show, “I thought he was a great guy and then we really had something. We talked about skipping Paradise and coming out with us, and then he ghosted me. Just like fully stopped communication.”

Gibelli and Horstmann met while filming Paramount+’s All Star Shore, started dating in 2021, and confirmed their relationship the following year. Giannina gave birth to the couple’s first child, son Heath Orion Horstmann, in March of 2024, making an Instagram announcement that read, “Our lives are brighter, fuller, and forever better. Thank you for all of the love and well wishes. Heath has so many people who love him. We’re parents!” The couple got engaged later that year.

The brand-new bride documented the fanfare leading up to their nuptials on Instagram. In February, she previewed her rehearsal and after-party looks, taking fans along with her as she shopped for dresses. In March, she shared a sneak peek at her wedding invitations. And in April, she shared pics of her birthday bachelorette trip to Amsterdam. 

More recently, Giabelli posted (on June 1) the couple’s trip to pick up their marriage license. And then there’s the wedding vacation. The family of three kicked things off in Capri, getting in plenty of fun in the sun. Per Giabelli’s posts, they then went to Pompeii and Sorrento before heading to Venice and eventually taking a ferry to Rovinj, Croatia, for the wedding. 

A reception with a four-course plated dinner at the Hutterott Castle followed the romantic ceremony. Their nearly 100-person guest list reportedly included fellow reality TV stars Jessica Vestal, Colleen Reed, Alexia Lemiex, Raven Ross, Taylor Krause, Anna Redman, Chris Bukowski, Astrid Wendt, Jason Tartick, and Kevin Wendt. 

Why Croatia? Gibelli’s mother is half-Croatian! The bride, who visited the country years ago,  toldPEOPLE, “I felt at home and knew that one day this was where I would get married.” 

If you were asked to guess the most photographed spots in America, your mind would probably wander straight to the soaring skyscrapers of New York City, the neon-drenched corridors of the Las Vegas Strip, or the palm-fringed boardwalks of Los Angeles. It turns out you’d be exactly right on the heavy hitters. According to a massive new data-science index from the photo-product platform Popsa, which analyzed millions of traveler photos, New York City officially holds the number-one spot with a perfect index score of 100. But if you look just a fraction further down the list, the fourth most photographed "city" in the United States is a total curveball that beats out nearly every major coastal metropolis on the map: Bay Lake, Florida.

For anyone who isn’t a local government buff, Bay Lake is the tiny, Disney-controlled municipality that technically contains the Magic Kingdom, Epcot and Hollywood Studios. Because millions of families treat a walk down Main Street, U.S.A. as a once-in-a-lifetime bucket-list pilgrimage, the sheer volume of images captured in front of Cinderella Castle managed to land Popsa an index score of 90, tying Las Vegas. The data proves that our modern travel habits are entirely driven by the pursuit of frame-worthy memories, whether we are capturing world-class streetscapes or waiting for the perfect fireworks blast over Tomorrowland.

When you look at the top ten list as a whole, it becomes clear that the most camera-dominant destinations across the country balance iconic, cinematic landmarks with a thriving local food and culture scene.

In New York City, the classic sunrise walk across the Brooklyn Bridge or a stroll through DUMBO’s cobblestone alleys deliver those timeless, iron-framed compositions that look straight out of a movie. On the opposite coast, Los Angeles (No. 2) commands a score of 91 by pairing the sun-bleached ridges of Runyon Canyon with the neon glow of the historic Angels Flight Railway. Las Vegas (No. 3) rounds out the podium by proving it is far more than just casino floors, drawing massive crowds out to the vivid rust-and-amber sandstone valleys of Red Rock Canyon just twenty minutes off the Strip.

Beyond the theme park gates of Bay Lake, the rest of the top rankings reveal a beautiful mix of architectural marvels and coastal escapes. Chicago sits at number five, where the distorted skyline reflection in Millennium Park's Cloud Gate sculpture and architecture cruises along the river canyon keep shutters clicking constantly. San Francisco follows closely at number six, relying on the classic, fog-wrapped morning views of the Golden Gate Bridge from Battery Spencer and the colorful Victorian charm of the Painted Ladies.

Down in Miami (No. 7), the lens shifts toward the bold, free-spirited energy of the Wynwood Walls murals and the pastel, historic lifeguard towers dotting South Beach. San Diego (No. 8) channels a completely different waterfront vibe, capturing wild sea lions sunning themselves on the sandstone cliffs of La Jolla Cove and the fairy-lit piazzas of Little Italy.

"Are you kicking around the idea of flying home with your favorite dip? If you're traveling within the U.S., make sure to keep your carry-on sauces to 3.4oz or less and place any larger containers in your checked bags."

Chicken Bacon Ranch fans have another reason to hit the drive-thru this summer.

Fast-food chain Zaxbys is leaning into one of its most popular flavor combinations with the launch of an all-new Chicken Bacon Ranch menu, featuring three indulgent items built around the classic pairing of chicken, bacon and ranch dressing. The new lineup is available in all restaurants, online and via third-party delivery beginning today, June 22.

The menu showcases what the company calls its fan-favorite made-from-scratch ranch dressing, combined with hand-breaded chicken and hardwood-smoked bacon.

According to the chain, the limited-time offering includes three different ways for customers to enjoy the flavor combination that has become a staple across the fast-food industry.

The move comes as chicken chains continue to battle for customers' attention with bold flavor combinations and limited-time menu innovations. Chicken Bacon Ranch has become one of the most popular fast-food flavor profiles in recent years, inspiring menu items at numerous major restaurant brands.

For Zaxbys, the launch is part of a busy year of menu experimentation.

In recent months, the chain has introduced giant chicken wraps, new dry-rub flavors and seasonal milkshakes as it looks to stand out in the increasingly crowded chicken category. Earlier this spring, the company rolled out Giant Chicken Finger Wraps, including a Chicken Bacon Ranch version, after customer demand for more portable meal options.

The latest launch also puts Zaxbys in more direct competition with fellow chicken chains, including Chick-fil-A, as brands continue searching for the next viral menu item.

Customers interested in trying the new Chicken Bacon Ranch lineup won't have to wait long.

The limited-time menu is scheduled to arrive at participating Zaxby's restaurants beginning June 29, giving fans another chance to indulge in one of fast food's most enduring flavor combinations.

From their sun-baked shores to the innate glamour, luxury, and jaw-dropping beauty that you can’t help but come across, whether you’re in Mallorca or Mykonos, Mediterranean destinations are among some of the most romantic, sensual, and relaxing on the whole planet. Copious sunny days, historic charm, and world-renowned culinary delights meet travelers everywhere they go in the Mediterranean. But there is one spot that might be a better fit for your spirit, based on your birth month. After all, your birth month tells an astrology-based story about your perspective, strengths, challenges, and tastes. 

Read on to learn which Mediterranean destination best matches your spirit, based on the month you were born.

Born at the start of a new year, you claim either hardworking, serious Capricorn or progressive, group-oriented Aquarius as your sun sign. Both signs are ruled by Saturn, the taskmaster planet, which oversees commitment, reality checks, and boundaries, and both signs are equally committed to making their mark. That’s why The Algarve in Portugal is the Mediterranean destination that best matches your soul, as it’s both truly unique (very Aquarian) and also a prime Portuguese tourist destination (which appeals to Caps), thanks to its breathtaking coves and grottos, charming beaches, Michelin star restaurants, and appeal for everyone from surfers to globe-trotting adventure-seekers. Vineyards and luxe resorts have earned it the nickname “the California of Europe."   

You came into the world when the sun was moving through either imaginative, innovative air sign Aquarius or ethereal, mystical water sign Pisces, making you a dreamer and a doer. That’s why Santorini, a world-famous island in Greece that boasts wine, whitewashed villages, breathtaking scenery that includes cliffs, black lava rocks, and a volcanic crater. It’s a place where you can dream and explore the science of the island, serving as a globally recognized geological and archaeological wonder, which appeals to your curious mind and heart.

Born when the sun was moving through either mystical, empathic Pisces or go-getter, dynamic, athletic fire sign Aries, Mallorca, Spain, with its activities for both spiritual and athletic types. If you’re more of an Aries, especially when you’re globe-trotting, Mallorca is the perfect destination for cycling, water sports, and tennis. If you’re more Piscean and looking for a destination that boasts awe-inspiring meditative spots, you’re in luck, as well, given that Mallorca is home to ancient mountaintop hermitages, Gothic cathedrals, and natural beauty that sets the stage for self-reflection and daydreaming. 

You came into the world when the sun was taking a trip through either fiery, competitive Aries or grounded, tactile, sensual Taurus, and Port Cheli in Greece speaks to both sides of April-born people with its cosmopolitan vibes and quiet roots. Originally a secluded fishing village, Port Cheli now welcomes many private yachts and is also a popular place for families to have a relaxing vacation. If you’re a super-active, Aries-style traveler, you can get from Porto Cheli to a variety of destinations on the road, and boat trips are also possible. Soft sand, clean water, and a chill vibe also appeal to earthy Taureans. 

Whether you were born when the sun was moving through slow and steady earth sign Taurus or curious air sign Gemini, you’re a communicator, a connector, and a relationship-oriented person who will adore the glamour and convenience of Cannes. The French destination, well known for its annual film festival, also boasts street art, timeless palaces, wow-worthy yachts, and high-end shopping, all of which feels in tune with your love of learning and luxury. It’s also a great spot to hop to or from, given its proximity to the Nice Côte d’Azur Airport and the sea, appealing to the Gemini-informed adoration of flitting from one destination to the next. 

The sun was in either social butterfly air sign Gemini or caregiving water sign Cancer when you were born, making Nice a destination that speaks to your spirit. Its youthful energy and urban culture blends with history, boutiques, cafes, beach clubs, and ancient cathedrals which appeal to your sentimentality and appetite for soaking up knowledge and connecting with others. And because Nice is also easy to access via air, sea, or land, it’s also a perfect base for exploring the Côte d’Azur—or really, all of Europe, which appeals to your sense of adventure and making the most of any given moment. 

Born when the sun was in either nurturing, caregiving water sign Cancer or sunny, dramatic fire sign Leo, you adore spending quality time with your nearest and dearest and might also have a penchant for the upscale side of life, from luxury hotels to fine dining. In turn, Capri, with its dramatic coastal cliffs, glamorous shopping, jaw-dropping viewpoints, and boat excursions that may feel especially therapeutic for you if you’re more Cancerian, is right up your alley. It’s also considered a wonderful spot to explore alongside family, whether you’re swimming in hidden grottoes or checking out the iconic Faraglioni rock formations. 

You were born under deeply loyal, theatrical fire sign Leo or cerebral, sensitive, earth goddess-y Virgo, which makes luxurious, romantic Positano exactly your vibe. The cliffside village on the Amalfi coast is famous for its pastel-hued homes, pebble beaches, Path of the Gods hiking trail, local specialties like limoncello, and exclusivity, as it’s not as accessible as other destinations, given that you can only reach it by ferry, private car, or coastal bus. Whether you’re lounging at a five-star palazzo or sipping a spritz at a Michelin-starred restaurant, your innate love of all things glitterati will feel pampered in Positano. 

FURTHER: These 4 Birth Months Make the Best Fathers

You were born under either intuitive, cerebral earth sign Virgo or beauty-loving, partnership-oriented, beauty-loving air sign Libra, which means that a destination dedicated to social gatherings is in tune with your soul. Saint-Tropez offers boutiques, winding streets, and a twice-weekly market in Place des Lices that serves as a spot for locals to gather—all interesting destinations for a curious Virgoan person. It’s also the backdrop of beach clubs that feature daytime parties, world-class DJs, A-list celebrity spotting, and exclusive nightlife that appeals to a social butterfly Libra. 

The sun moved through romantic, elegant, balance-loving air sign Libra and intimacy-seeking, magnetic water sign Scorpio during the month you came into the world. A sexy destination with equal parts mystery and sensuality is the best fit for your soul, which makes ancient, decadent Hvar, Croatia a clear choice. Having been inhabited for over 6,000 years, its history is striking, and the old town is a labyrinth of narrow stone alleys that will intrigue and dazzle you, given your sense of wanting to uncover mysteries. Hvar is also known for its witchy fortress (Fortica), which features lavender fields, and its intoxicating scents, from rosemary to pine resin and salt. Its surreality appeals to your inner romantic, poet, and lover.

Whether you were born under the powerful, fearless water sign Scorpio or jovial, wanderlust-fueled fire sign Sagittarius, you care deeply about transformative experiences, whether they’re impacting you spiritually or emotionally, and for this reason, Salvador Dalí’s beloved Costa Brava was made for you. Dalí chose this destination for its dramatic landscapes—cliffs, surrealistic rock formations, small, enclosed coves—and its ability to inspire his art. That same vibe appeals to your very own intense, go-big-or-go-home approach to life. And with your appetite for coastal activities and cuisine, you might also enjoy exploring Costa Brava’s Catalan cuisine, hiking the Camí de Ronda coastal trail, sea kayaking, or snorkeling in turquoise waters. 

Born with your sun in either adventurous Sagittarius, symbolized by a centaur, or hardworking, serious Capricorn, symbolized by the Sea Goat, you often play as hard as you work and believe in doing the most, which is also the vibe of one of the most famous Greek islands. With its high-end designer pop-ups, world-class house music DJs, and beach clubs that provide full-day entertainment, you can always find a place to party and make the most of the moment. Whether you’re a Sag who loves to live large or a Capricorn who is both earthy and interested in status, the amplified details Mykonos offers—large yachts, over-the-top cocktails, brightly hued bougainvillea—are sure to speak to you.

Coca-Cola will always be known for its regular supply of iconic soda flavors, be it a bottle of classic Coke or a refreshing can of Cherry or Vanilla Coke.

As delicious as the brand's signature flavors are on their own, Coke is giving fans even more reason to celebrate with the debut of three new soda flavors inspired by one of the most anticipated movies of the year.

As audiences look ahead to the release of Illumination's upcoming Minions & Monsters, Coca-Cola is adding three new flavors to its Freestyle Machines across the country.

Found exclusively at AMC theaters, the new lineup of Minions-inspired flavors specifically includes:

• Sprite Bello Yello: taken from the Minions' signature greeting, the Bello Yello features a blend of Sprite Lemonade and Sprite Pineapple, delivering a refreshing tropical soda unlike ant other.
• Minute Maid Goomi Green: inspired by Minions & Monsters' central antagonist, Goomi Green features a mix of Minute Maid Limeade, Sprite Vanilla and Mello Yello Citrus Twist for the ultimate tangy beverage.
• Fanta Irene Infusion: named for a standout character in the film, the Infusion offers a mix of Fanta Orange and Fanta Fruit Punch, perfect for all those who love a tropical-inspired soda to accompany their movie-going experience.

As with most of Coca-Cola's Freestyle machines, the new flavors are available in both standard and zero-sugar varieties. And if the early reaction online has been any indication, fans might find themselves stocking up on the limited-edition soda flavors while they're still in theaters.

"Ok I need to head to one of these now," said one fan.

"The way I’ll be going in the cinema just for banana sprite 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️💨," shared another user.

Arriving in theaters on July 1, Minions & Monsters serves as the third installment in the Minions franchise and the seventh entry in the overall Despicable Me series. The film's cast includes Christoph Waltz, Jeff Bridges, Jesse Eisenberg, Allison Janney, Zoey Deutch and Phil LaMarr, among others.

On Monday, the family of Alan Greenspan announced his death, citing complications from Parkinson's Disease as the cause. The 100-year-old was most famously the chair of the Federal Reserve, working under four different presidents for five terms during his tenure, according to NBC News.

Often credited with steering the country through one of our longest periods of economic expansion from 1991 to 2001, and just as often blamed for creating the conditions that led to the Subprime Mortgage crisis that began in 2007, Greenspan has had a storied career. Here are just some of the things that Greenspan accomplished during that time.

According to the Federal Reserve History website, Greenspan began his financial career in 1948, when he joined the National Industrial Conference Board. This was after he graduated from New York University, but before he received his doctorate from Columbia University.

Here, he helped analyze demand for metals such as steel, copper, and aluminum.

In 1954, Greenspan became the chairman and president of Townsend-Greenspan & Co., a position he held until 1974, and then again from 1977 to 1987. The economic consulting firm was highly profitable, according to Timemagazine, and at one point, it was the place some of the country's largest corporations turned to for conservative financial advice.

"He is the kind of person who knows how many thousands of flat-headed bolts were used in a Chevrolet and what it would do to the national economy if you took out three of them," former Texas Congressman and friend Frank Ikard once said of his vast financial capabilities.

In 1985, Greenspan appeared in multiple commercials as a pitchman for Apple's IIc computer, which many might not realize. "People in high places are always asking me: ‘Alan, where does the money go,'" he said before hawking the computer (and its modem). Back then, the computer cost $1,300.

Some of the features of this early model included checking your bank balance and paying your bills online, according to Wired. "You can even pay your bills off automatically," Greenspan, who had previously served as chairman of the President's Council of Economic Advisers, said in the commercial. "If you have any money left over, congratulations. You’re doing better than the government is."

The timing of the Apple spot was amusing in hindsight, since just two years later, Greenspan was appointed to the Federal Reserve, holding the position through two recessions, including the Asian financial crisis in 1997 and the September 11th attacks, according to the Federal Reserve History website.

Greenspan earned a reputation as anti-inflation during this time and worked to control prices rather than promote employment, a stance that critics complained about. However, while some may not have been fans, he did earn the praise of four presidents, first being appointed by Ronald Regan and then reappointed by three successive presidents.

You can add "accomplished author" to Greenspan's list of achievements. He wrote several books during his lifetime, including:

• The Age of Turbulence: Adventures in a New World
• The Map and the Territory
• Capitalism in America

The Age of Turbulence was particularly well received, and the book went on to become a New York Times Best Seller, according to Amazon.

Greenspan clearly leaves behind an impressive legacy, but it's likely to pale in comparison to the one he left at home.

His wife, NBC News' Andrea Mitchell, announced his death in a statement early Monday, writing in part, "To me, he was my husband, who shaped my life from our very first date in 1984. He had ‘irrational exuberance’ for baseball, the Washington Commanders, tennis, golf, and music, especially jazz," she continued. "He will be remembered for his brilliance and his kindness. Being his life partner was the joy of my life."
