Sesame Street

The singer joined Big Bird and Mr. Snuffleupagus to show their appreciation for the planet Brandi Carlile will be stopping by Sesame Street on Thursday to help Big Bird and Mr. Snuffleupagus, also known as Snuffy, celebrate all things nature. In an exclusive clip from the episode, which teaches kids about the environment, Carlile explains that “Nature is all around us, it’s everything around us not made by people.” To help her two friends learn more about what Earth is all about, the singer…

Elmo celebrated his birthday earlier this month. The beloved children’s entertainer made his first appearance on Sesame Street in 1980, so it seems like a fair guess that he would have turned at least 44 years old this year. By any normal measure, Elmo should be a middle-aged man, but lurking in the details of his back story is a fact so bizarre that it strains our most basic assumptions about the universe. Elmo is three and a half years old—and every year, on February 3rd, he turns three and a half again.Why Bitcoin…

It was the live TV attack that shocked the world. Furry red monster Elmo was making an appearance on the Today Show on Thursday, speaking about the importance of mental health, when all of a sudden, Larry David launched toward the muppet and attacked him, grabbing his face and throwing a punch at the Sesame Street legend. “Somebody had to do it!” David said with a giggle. David later returned for a different Today segment and apologized to Elmo, who quickly accepted the sentiment. But looks like it was not…

“Elmo is just checking in! How is everybody doing?” the account for the cheerful red monster innocently wrote Monday morning. It was the perfect setup for the cynics of Twitter/X. Elmo is just checking in!

By Harmeet Kaur | CNN When there were few other Indigenous celebrities in the spotlight, there was Buffy Sainte-Marie. The celebrated singer-songwriter rose to prominence during the folk revival of the 1960s, building a name as a Cree artist. She sang about the injustices experienced by Indigenous peoples in songs such as “Now That the Buffalo’s Gone,” “My Country ‘Tis of Thy People You’re Dying” and “Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee.” She showed children that Native people weren’t relics of the past in a five-year stint on…

Cameo has added a pair of timeless superstars to its stable of celebrities (a term used loosely in some cases) available for personalized video greetings. Cookie Monster and Elmo, who may or may not have fallen on hard times, will shamelessly plug their services on the six-year-old platform, offering to count to your kid’s age or rattle off words that start with the same letter as your child’s name — for $25 a pop. Perhaps that relatively low price for the Sesame Street icons is because humans don’t appear to record their…

Black Adam - Official Trailer 2It started so simply. Variety reported that the DC film, which has earned less than $400 million worldwide, was a bomb that was going to lose Warner Bros. around $200 million. This happens, even to stars as usually consistently bankable as Dwayne Johnson. But the actor and the studio went into full-on denial mode for some reason, insisting that thanks to home video, rentals, and the sales of Black Adam merchandise, the movie was going to make money… except none of these things are ever…

Image: DisneyThe Muppets’ time with Disney shows lately might have been a bit up and down, but The Muppets Mayhem looks like it wants to live up to some of the zaniness of the franchise’s most classic show—with a little help from the Electric Mayhem themselves. Though there were only the human characters and showrunners there for the panel, NYCC con-goers did receive a pre-recorded visit from starring Muppets Dr. Teeth and Monster. Attendees then watched a short clip from the upcoming show,as the Electric Mayhem band…
