Taylor Swift shared a heartfelt tribute to Dolly Parton after the country music icon’s death at age 80. “A world without Dolly doesn’t feel possible, real, or right. But because of the eternally generous way she spent her time on this earth and the countless lives she changed for the better, her legacy will be an everlasting one,” Swift, 36, said in a statement obtained by Us on Tuesday, August 25. “She was truly the gift that kept on giving. Dolly gave us someone to look up to while encouraging us to be who we are as individuals,” Swift continued. “Somehow she was able to give us her lessons about the world gently and honestly, simultaneously, and oftentimes hilariously. She managed to give the world the ultimate mystery and fantasy in some corners of her life, but to give full transparency in the ways that counted. Somehow she was true grace and true grit, all in one dazzling person. She possessed the softest heart when it came to the struggles of others and a backbone of steel to defend her own self-worth as an artist.” The Grammy winner went on, “Along with her other fans, I am so grateful for…
President Donald Trump’s name was reportedly a major factor in Kennedy Center’s financial collapse, per leaked documents.
Jelly Roll weighed in on the strong reaction to his Monday monologue on “Jimmy Kimmel Live,” saying he couldn’t believe his jabs at Trump caused more trouble in late night than Rosie O’Donnell. “I did a couple of jokes like that last night, in case y’all didn’t hear about it,” the country singer noted during Tuesday’s monologue after making a dig at the White House’s ballroom project. “And it’s because I’m hosting a damn late night show. That’s where you talk about the news and you make jokes.” “But I guess apparently because I did it, it really messed with people’s heads. This was actually a headline, y’all,” Jelly Roll said, before referencing TheWrap’s Monday story, titled, “Jelly Roll Stuns ‘Jimmy Kimmel Live’ Audience With Multiple Jabs at Trump: ‘Didn’t See This Coming.’“ Jelly Roll confessed he was pretty surprised by the reaction, noting, “I have to say, as a former felon, drug dealer who has lost 300 lb., has tattoos all over his face and won three Grammys, this is the weirdest thing I’ve ever done to stun people.” Though, he was particularly stunned to see that his monologue caused “more trouble” than Rosie O’Donnell’s guest hosting stint, given…
In 2026, audiences are quick to call out a culture vulture. Brands wanting to engage with Carnival, Fête De La Musique, and cultural festivities must approach with caution, envisioning themselves as supporters, not headline sponsors.
The group, calling itself The Brigade, also includes Ram Bergman, Matti Leshem, Anthony Bregman, Micah Green and Lynn Harris.
Creators are claiming a stake in the businesses their influence helps scale. But the promise of a bigger payday comes with financial risk — and a more complicated relationship with their audiences.
Actress Golda Rosheuvel opened up about a less-than-pleasant fan encounter she faced while on vacation following the global success of “Bridgerton,” calling the experience “really weird and scary.” During her Tuesday appearance on Jesse Tyler Ferguson’s “Dinner’s on Me” podcast, Rosheuvel, reflected on the anxiety and loss of anonymity that came with her “Bridgerton” fame. “It is helpful that we were together before it all went crazy,” Rosheuvel, who plays Queen Charlotte on Netflix’s romance drama, said of her wife, Shireen Mula. “Sometimes she still holds on to the old days, which can be a little difficult.” Rosheuvel offered up their newfound travel expenses as an example, noting, “I don’t want to sound like a wanker, but it’s things like having to travel in a different seat than we used to. Do you know what I mean? And flying to Europe for £400 now rather than £50.” As Rosheuvel went on, she explained that this wasn’t due to wanting a more luxurious travel experience, but out of a need for privacy. “Sadly, sometimes I have anxiety about traveling, about people looking at me, because they do,” she said. “Being in the public eye now, my senses, I will know when…
J.K. Rowling fired back after a critic commented, “It should have been you,” on her tribute to Dolly Parton, calling out the post for publicly “wishing death” on her. Earlier on Tuesday, the “Harry Potter” author, whose anti-trans views have made her a controversial figure, took to X to pay tribute to the late country legend, who died at 80 following a brief battle with cancer. Like many in the industry, Rowling had nothing but praise for the singer, actress and philanthropist, writing, “Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library was the best contribution to child literacy ever made by a celebrity. Our paths crossed once, in the ’90s, backstage at a talk show, and I was completely tongue-tied and starstruck. RIP Dolly. You were a complete, irreplaceable one-off.” However, given Parton’s prior status as a devoted advocate for the LGBTQ+ community, many on X took umbrage with Rowling’s message about the “9 to 5” star. One scathing response appeared to catch Rowling’s attention, as she shared the comment with her followers: “It should have been you.” “Top tips for wishing death on people in public,” the author wrote alongside a screenshot of the critic’s message. “Blocking the target is useless if you’ve…
Meghan Markle is always stylish, but if there’s one department where the Duchess always shines, it’s her accessories. And while her jewelry often comes with price tags in the tens of thousands, if not more, I was surprised to find a designer‑inspired watch that looks strikingly similar to her pricey gold Cartier timepiece. Even better: the Amazon accessory is only $26! The Gaofan Hour gold watch has an identical silhouette and presentation to the Royal’s nearly $30,000 accessory — so much so that I’m convinced admirers will swear it’s the real deal. After all, the square face, Roman numeral markers and slim gold links echo the same elegance that makes Markle’s watch so iconic and identifiable. See it! Get the GAOFAN HOUR Gold Watch for $26 (originally $28) at Amazon! Please note, prices are accurate as of the publishing date but are subject to changes. Crafted from high-quality stainless steel with gold plating, the layered watch, which features a resizable band, has a delicate profile that sits comfortably on the wrist without weighing you down. Though it features a slim, sophisticated design, the durable watch can easily handle everyday wear and tear — think hand‑washing, light splashes and a bit…

Theatergoers in the United Kingdom were met with a surprising update from a cast member of “9 to 5: The Musical,” who appeared to break the news of Dolly Parton’s death ahead of Tuesday’s performance. “Good evening. Before we begin tonight’s performance of ‘9 to 5,’ we would like to take a moment to remember the remarkable Dolly Parton, who has sadly passed away today,” a cast member for the touring production of the musical shared with audience members at the Pavilion Theatre ahead of the scheduled show in Worthing, England. Many in the crowd appeared taken aback by the news of Parton’s passing, as several theatergoers could be heard gasping and saying, “Oh!” in response to the update. “‘9 to 5’ was originally written and produced by Dolly, whose extraordinary talent, creativity and spirit are woven into every part of this work,” the show’s performer continued, in a video obtained by the BBC. “Tonight, we will perform the piece as she intended, with great respect and affection for the woman whose vision brought it to life. Our thoughts are with Dolly’s family, friends and all those around the world who loved and admired her.” “So, as we begin, we…

As Rebel Wilson fights a Hollywood producer’s claims that she tried to damage her reputation, new legal documents have linked the legal battle to Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni’s now-settled It Ends With Us case. According to documents filed with the Superior Court of the State of California on Tuesday, August 25, and obtained by Us, Amanda Ghost has provided alleged correspondence sent by Wilson, 46, to the same PR company who Lively, 39, alleged orchestrated a smear campaign against her led by Baldoni, 42. In the documents, texts allegedly sent by Wilson to entertainment publicist Melissa Nathan, suggest that the Pitch Perfect star ordered Nathan to create anonymous websites that tarnished Ghost. (Ghost worked with Wilson on the star’s 2024 directorial debut The Deb, during which the pair experienced a falling out.) “Question – did you receive my text for the website?” Wilson allegedly wrote to Nathan, per the text exchange. “I never received an invoice.” Rebel Wilson Countersues ‘The Deb’ Producers Who Accused Her of Defamation Nathan’s alleged response read, “Morning, so sorry I was asleep. We have full text for the website we hadn’t heard from you – I know that it was a tough few days…

Jane Fonda and her 1A Committee formally defended actor and activist Mark Ruffalo Tuesday in a memo denouncing Paramount for labeling him “antisemitic” after he criticized the Ellison family, Oracle’s support of Israel and Paramount’s proposed $110 billion merger with Warner Bros. Discovery. The Oscar winner accused the studio of smearing the actor in an effort to deflect attention from legitimate concerns over the Ellisons’ business ties in the Middle East and more. “Mark Ruffalo has a First Amendment right to speak out about politics, powerful corporations and this dangerous merger — full stop,” Fonda said in a statement. “Calling his criticism antisemitic is a smear to delegitimize criticism of the merger and to distract from the question Paramount would rather not answer: Should one company be allowed to accumulate this much power over our movies, television and news?” Fonda added that the original Committee for the First Amendment was founded to stand against such tactics from “bully activists.” Fonda’s defense comes after Ruffalo attacked the Paramount-Warner Bros. merger in a Friday Instagram post, denouncing the business deal in part by drawing connections to the Ellison family’s ties to what he called Israel’s “genocide” in Gaza. “This is the company…
Iowa Attorney General Brenna Bird announced plans Tuesday to take California’s Rob Bonta to the Supreme Court over the state’s Paramount lawsuit. Bird published an op-ed in Daily Wire sharing why she plans to bring California directly to the Supreme Court over filing a brief in the state. In the article, Bird argued that Paramount’s acquisition of Warner Bros. would help the economy rather than hurt it, stating that “twelve states have overridden that judgment for the entire country, and Iowans never got a vote.” “California is once again trying to be the country’s regulator. And once again California is defying common sense to raise costs around the country. That makes this a dispute between states, and the Constitution says those can only be heard in the U.S. Supreme Court,” Bird wrote. “Iowa cannot sue California in a district court, because Congress said so. Intervening in California’s chosen forum raises the same problem — at least until the Supreme Court tells us whether it agrees with Congress that it is the only court that can hear this case. Without that ruling, we would be walking into a case filed by California before a judge with no authority to decide a…

Shooting is officially underway for Season 3,” Scott said coyly. “And that’s it.” You can watch the moment yourself in the clip below. View this post on Instagram A post shared by TODAY (@todayshow) Melvin then pressed further and asked if fans would have to wait three years between seasons again. “Severance” Season 2 came out in 2025, three years after the first season, following delays from the SAG and WGA strikes. “We’re doing everything we can to try and make sure that doesn’t happen. You never know,” Scott said. “We want to make the best show possible, so whatever it takes.” “You were so disciplined in a non-message,” Melvin joked with the actor. “How far into the shooting are we?” Scott confirmed that they are a few weeks into production but added that they “just started.” When asked if the season would wrap production by Christmas, the actor answered generically,…
