Bill Maher acknowledged Dolly Parton’s passing on “Real Time” Friday night but suggested more important news may have been overshadowed by the country singer’s death.

Maher then spent the next several minutes mocking Trump’s decision to rename Lake Ontario to Lake America, as well as the ongoing war in Iran.

Maisie Williams knows a thing or two about witchcraft beyond her work in “Practical Magic 2,” admitting she once hired a digital mystic. Specifically, at Wednesday’s European Premiere for “Practical Magic 2,” the “Game of Thrones” alum shared that she once hired an “Etsy witch” to assist in her career. “I paid an Etsy witch to give me a role. To help me manifest a role in a movie,” she said to British Vogue during a red carpet interview. “And she told me some things that I had to say every night.” Per Williams, she followed the online spellcaster’s instruction, as she said the words “every night.” However, the spell didn’t work, with Williams quipping, “It didn’t happen!” While Williams may not be sold on the Etsy witch industry, the actress confessed that she does partake in superstitions. “I don’t like to walk over the three consecutive drains,” she said, referring to the British superstition that it’s bad luck. “I don’t swear by it.

After parting ways with WNBC, longtime investigative journalist Sarah Wallace wants to clear the air: She’s not retiring.

She’s an eagle when she flies. The world has had no shortage of opportunities to celebrate the late singer and philanthropist Dolly Parton since the icon’s death was announced Tuesday. Now, Parton’s home state of Tennessee plans to honor the celebrity with the unique distinction of having an airport named after her. The proposal will be discussed at a Metro Nashville Airport Authority meeting on Sept. 17. “Dolly Parton’s extraordinary life is forever woven into the fabric of our state. From her rural mountain home in East Tennessee to global stages, Dolly carried the Volunteer Spirit with her,” Tennessee Gov. Bill Lee said in a Friday statement. “At a place where Tennessee welcomes the world, it is fitting that Nashville International Airport would bear the name of our state’s favorite daughter and greet travelers with the enduring legacy of Dolly’s music, generosity, faith, and kindness.” A petition to rename the airport after Dolly Parton was started on Change.org in January 2025 and quickly gained momentum in the wake of this week’s events. At the time of writing, the petition has garnered 160,000 signatures, potentially drawing the attention of government officials. Prior to the airport renaming proposal, Sheryl Crow and Katie…
Description Sandra Bullock and Nicole Kidman give ET an exclusive look at the set of ‘Practical Magic 2,’ revealing their go-to move for getting into character: a bounce, a stretch and even a little twerk, all caught on camera before takes.

California lawmakers have unveiled a new trailer bill that will make changes to the state’s expanded production tax incentive program after a law capping annual tax credits for all businesses passed earlier this summer. On June 29, Senate Bill 122 was passed into law by Gov. Gavin Newsom as part of the state’s annual budget, capping the amount of tax credits any business can receive at $5 million or 70% of total liability per year, whichever is greater. The bill was passed as a way to raise revenue from corporate taxes by closing loopholes. But SB 122 sparked alarm among studios and entertainment unions, as the law threatened to undermine the industry’s efforts to make California more competitive as a film and TV production hub by expanding the state’s production incentive cap from $330 million to $750 million last year. With the $5 million annual cap in place, industry advocates like the Entertainment Union Coalition and the Motion Picture Association warned that it would take longer for major studio productions to receive the tax credits they earned while making it more difficult for independent productions to sell the credits to potential financiers. A new trailer bill, Assembly Bill 186, seeks…
