It's dark, and these ideas and images are precisely what writer Al Ewing wanted to explore. Ewing spoke with…

Last week, Universal Music Group (UMG) pulled their catalog from TikTok. In an instant, videos that once were soundtracked to the voices of Taylor Swift and Post Malone fell silent. And now, not even the artists themselves can share their music on the app.In an open letter published last week, UMG placed the bulk of the blame on concerns about artificial intelligence. “TikTok is allowing the platform to be flooded with AI-generated recordings—as well as developing tools to enable, promote and encourage AI music creation…

At a time of increasing climate peril and ascendant authoritarianism, it may seem like journalistic malpractice to spill scarce newspaper ink over the romance between NFL star Travis Kelce and uber-star Taylor Swift. But the conspiracy theorizing over the power couple, just before Kelce plays in the Super Bowl, could arise only in a time such as ours, and it says so much about the decline of trust and verifiable truth in this political moment.Make no mistake: This isn’t a both-sides-do-it problem. The speculation that…

On the fifth day of Nicki Minaj’s intense fixation on Megan Thee Stallion following a jab the “Savage” rapper likely threw Minaj’s way on her latest track, Minaj invoked Rihanna to claim that Megan tried to force sympathy for herself as a victim of violence.

While Christopher Reeves passed away almost two decades ago, his name was thrust back into the spotlight last year following his CGI cameo in The Flash – which prompted an honest take from a Smallville alum. Now, his name is ringing in ears again following the Sundance Film Festival premiere of the documentary Super/Man: The Christopher Reeve Story. The documentary in part highlights the Superman star's appearance at the 1996 Oscars following his life-changing horse-riding accident and the emotional standing ovation he…

Award shows are great for celebrating the wonderful work done by creatives throughout the year, but they're also an opportunity for celebrities to get together and mingle. That results in fun crossover moments that fans end up loving. This year, Selena Gomez and Florence Pugh shared an adorable hug together at the 2024 Golden Globes. The moment was captured on camera, with Elizabeth Banks caught in the shuffle, and she (of course) took the opportunity to photobomb. It's so perfect, and I'm wondering why this hasn't gone…
