Little House on the Prairie was released in 1974 and became a major success for NBC. The show, set in an agrarian Minnesota community in the 1800s, tells the story of the Ingalls family, led by Charles and Caroline Ingalls, known by their children as Pa and Ma. 

Michael Landon and Karen Grassle starred as the patriarch and matriarch of the family. Sadly, Landon died of pancreatic cancer in 1991. After the show's finale in 1983, many of the cast members went on to star in films, stage productions and other TV shows. Keep reading for a look at where the cast of Little House on the Prairie is now.

Gilbert began her career as a child actress early in life. While Little House is her best-known work, she also went on to appear in more than 80 projects after the show's conclusion. These include roles on 7th Heaven and Stand by Your Man. Gilbert also appeared on the 14th season of Dancing with the Stars. 

Off-screen, Gilbert launched Modern Prairie, described as home decor and apparel for mature women. The brand features several Little House-themed items, such as nightgowns named after both Mary and Laura.

Landon was already a successful actor before he took on the role of the Ingalls family patriarch, but he soon became synonymous with Charles Ingalls. In addition to Little House, he was well known for his years on Bonanza, which he filmed before the series, and Highway to Heaven, which would be his final major project. 

The actor was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer in 1991 and died in July of the same year at the age of 52. His final appearance was on The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson, just a few weeks before his death.

Grassle studied at the London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art and originally got her start as an actress on Broadway. She went back to the theatre after the conclusion of Little House and was involved in theater groups in Santa Fe, New Mexico, Louisville, Kentucky, and San Francisco, California.

Grassle has continued to perform on stage and screen. Her most recent film credit was in 2021's Not to Forget. That year, she also published her memoir Bright Lights, Prairie Dust: Reflections on Life, Loss, and Love from Little House's Ma, which details her experiences on Little House.

Anderson's career began when she was cast as Mary Ingalls at the age of 11. After the show ended, she wrote about what it was like on set in her book The Way I See It: A Look Back at My Life on Little House. She eventually moved to Canada, where she raised her children. Anderson's post-Little House roles include stints on Veronica Mars as well as The Equalizer and The Con Is On.

Twins Lindsay and Sidney began their careers as Carrie Ingalls. Each girl took turns playing the young member of the Ingalls family. The two girls had a connection to Michael Landon before taking the part: their father, Billy Green Bush (different spelling intentional!), co-starred in Bonanza. 

After Little House, Lindsay appeared in an episode of the crime drama series Matt Houston, and Sidney starred in the comedy-drama film Hambone and Hillie. They both appeared in a few commercials before eventually retiring from acting.

In April 2024, the twins joined Michael Landon's daughters, Leslie and Shawna, in a charity stride to help raise money for pancreatic cancer research and treatment. Landon died from the disease in 1991.

Butler, who played Almanzo Wilder, the husband of Laura Ingalls Wilder, in later seasons of the show, went on to star many years later as Hank Summers in Buffy the Vampire Slayer. In June 2024, he released his memoir Prairie Man: My Little House Life & Beyond, which focuses on his time on the show.

“Prairie Man, based on the title, is very centered around the Little House experience, and I draw from life experience that I got from Little House,” he's said of the book, which includes forewords by costars Melissa Gilbert and Alison Arngrim. “And there's talk about different relationships with different people that I had on the show. My sense of those people. There is a lot of gratitude in the book.”

The memoir also confronts “some hurt feelings, some disappointments, some of things that maybe didn't go the way I would've dreamed that they could go,” Butler told People. “But in an experience that satisfied and has satisfied so many dreams in my life. Little House has been this massive gift.”

Stewart portrayed school teacher Miss Beadle for the show's first four seasons. In a recent interview with The Sun, she remembered making a bold move in her audition: "I looked at the producer who was sitting behind this big desk with all these executives around him, and I said, ‘May I sit behind your desk?'" she recalled. 

"So he got up and moved, and I went around and sat in his chair and all the men were kind of [talking], and I went, ‘Quiet!'" she shared. "I don’t think you do that to studio executives. I don’t know why I did that; it just came out of me. And I got the part."

After Little House, she went on to star in a number of projects, including the original Twin Peaks and the 2017 revival, in which she played Betty Briggs. Fans of The Office may have recognized her when she fell prey to Dwight Schrute's overly exceptional customer service at Staples.

Back in the '80s, Mötley Crüe ruled the world. The hard rock outfit was one of the most successful bands of the era, with their music being inescapable on the charts. Their album "Doctor Feelgood" even reached number one on the Billboard Hot 100. They were arguably the most popular rock band of the era.

Now, all these years later, they are a legacy act, still traveling around and performing for all the fans that have grown up with them. They've managed to maintain a fanbase who either through nostalgic or diehard reasons has kept supporting them with their shows year in and year out.

Recently, those fans have been calling the band out for what appeared to be lip-syncing from lead singer Vince Neil at a recent concert.

@pacificcoastradio

Vince Neil and the rest of Mötley Crüe have largely dismissed or denied claims that they rely entirely on pre-recorded lead vocals during their concerts. While the band has occasionally addressed the use of backing instrumentation and auxiliary tracks to fatten up their arena sound, Neil has historically downplayed the accusations, attributing live sound discrepancies to audio delays, heavy reverb, or the natural wear and tear of decades of touring. #vinceneil #motleycrue #lipsync #pacificcoastradio #pacificcoastfm

♬ original sound - pacificcoastradio - pacificcoastradio

The caption claims that the Neil has always denied the accusations of lip-syncing, although the band has used backing tracks before to boost their sound. Fans didn't see it that way however, as they took to the comments to angrily accuse the singer of phoning it in and not singing anymore.

"No. That’s lip-syncing. His voice does not sound like that anymore."

"Sounds just like the studio version.👌Oh yeah because it is lol."

"You have one job Vince."

Another commenter noted that when paying for a ticket to a show, you expect to see the band actually sing, saying, "If they chose to tour…and I paid for a ticket… they'd better sing at least a little bit."

Other fans were quick to defend the band, bringing up that they're getting older and that it isn't easy.

"Let him be... gosh ppl are so rude."

"Mic issue? Not a huge secret they use some backing tracks but typically he at least does sing."

"Hey, the fact that Vince still wants to get up there and entertain the fans says a lot. His voice may not be what it was in the ’80s, but the guy is still showing up, still performing, and still giving people the chance to see Mötley Crüe live. After decades of touring, that kind of drive deserves some respect."

We may never know what really happened on stage at this Mötley Crüe concert, but no matter what, the band is still doing what they did in their prime: getting people talking.

Adam Sandler spent the Fourth of July weekend officiating the wedding of the year.

Two days later he was on the phone with the Nantucket police, though not for anything close to an emergency. Less than 48 hours after he married off Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce at Madison Square Garden on July 3, Sandler, 59, called the Nantucket Police Department's non-emergency line with a simple question: where could a guy find a pickup basketball game?

Public safety dispatcher Chris Reynolds took the call and later recounted it to the Nantucket Current, the local outlet that first reported the story.

"Sandler said, 'Hey, I'm here on your island and I like to play basketball. Can you tell me where there's a basketball court I could play on?' " Reynolds recalled.

A Well-Documented Obsession

The call was not a one-off. Hours before he officiated the Swift and Kelce ceremony on July 3, the Grown Ups star had already squeezed in a pickup run on outdoor courts in New York City during a heat wave. Sandler plays multiple times a week and has hooped with NBA pros and total strangers alike. Back in 2010, Shaquille O'Neal called him "a damn good player."

Reynolds pointed him toward the Backus Lane court off Surfside Road, where a group of locals had a game going. One of them, Andrew Kesler, said Sandler climbed out of a car and asked to jump in.

"Adam Sandler rolled in a car and started playing pick ups with the boys," Kesler said.

The Kelce Connection

Sandler first met Kelce on the set of the 2025 Netflix comedy Happy Gilmore 2, which featured a cameo from the tight end. He has spoken warmly about both newlyweds, once calling Kelce "such a gentle, nice guy" and describing Swift as "ridiculously nice" to his family.

It made for two pickup games in one wedding weekend, on two different islands. The second one just took a call to the cops to set up.

Unlike true antiques, modern furniture designed to mimic retro designs can be an affordable way to update your space.

Walmart has plenty of options to choose from, and one new vintage-inspired piece has caught our eye in the best way. 

Normally $52, the Maliowa Small Side Table is currently on sale for over 30% off thanks to a limited-time Walmart flash deal.

Measuring approximately 23 inches high, 15 inches wide, and 12 inches deep, this table is perfectly sized for small spaces like apartments, dorm rooms, and RVs. The petite design also works well in a cramped living room or office that needs extra storage or to fit a narrow space next to the bed as a nightstand. 

Made of wood coated in a water-resistant paint for durability, this table also features adjustable foot pads underneath each leg to keep the table stable. Three sturdy shelves with a total load-bearing capacity of 44 pounds offer ample room to stash remotes, hold a lamp, stack books, display framed photos, or store medical devices bedside. 

Though reviews are limited on this new table, shoppers are already raving about it. "The first time I saw it, I was in love with it," one person shared, calling it "elegant" and "so chic." The same shopper said the table looked "expensive," despite being on sale for under $40. The vintage-style table legs and color options evoke the look of similar tables from more expensive brands, but Walmart’s sale price will keep you on budget.

More than 30 years after forming, The Rasmus is finally embarking on its first North American headlining tour.

The Finnish rock band has announced a fall 2026 trek across the United States and Canada, marking the first time the group will headline its own tour in the region. Joining The Rasmus on the run will be British rock band Saint Agnes and Los Angeles outfit Death Valley Dreams as special guests. 

For vocalist Lauri Ylönen, the tour represents a milestone years in the making.

"We've waited for this moment for a long time," Ylönen said in a statement. "Our fans in North America have been asking us to come back and do a proper headlining tour for years, and now it's finally happening. We're excited to bring our full show across the Atlantic and play both new songs and the classics."

View this post on Instagram

The tour comes on the heels of the release of the band's latest album, Weirdo. The record follows 2022's Rise and continues the next chapter for a group that has remained one of Finland’s most successful rock exports for more than three decades.

"I had a feeling that we should go harder musically and I've been steering us into that world," Ylönen told The Strange Brew of Weirdo. "It excites me and feels tempting and unknown. Times are also rough and our is in a bad shape right now. Heavier sound fits and feels natural."

Formed in Helsinki in 1994, The Rasmus broke through internationally in the early 2000s with the release of Dead Letters. Powered by the global smash "In the Shadows," the album sold millions of copies worldwide and introduced the band's blend of alternative rock, gothic influences and melodic hooks to audiences across Europe, Asia and the Americas.

While the group has toured extensively throughout Europe over the years, North American appearances have been relatively rare. The newly announced headlining run gives fans the opportunity to experience a full-length show celebrating both the band’s classic material and its newest music.

Saint Agnes and Death Valley Dreams will provide support throughout the tour, adding a pair of rising rock acts to the lineup. Together, the three bands promise a night that spans hard rock, alternative and modern metal influences.

After decades of building an international following, The Rasmus is finally bringing its own headlining production to North America. For longtime fans who have waited years to see the band in a headlining setting, the upcoming tour marks one of the biggest milestones of the group's career.

Nicole Kidman has tight natural curls, but she doesn't show them in her recent movie roles. The Oscar winner has three daughters and she shared a cute baby picture of one of them and her blonde curls.

Nicole Kidman's Daughter Sunday Rose Turns 18 View this post on Instagram

Kidman, 59, posted a picture of herself holding Sunday Rose Kidman Urban on July 7 on Instagram. "Happy 18th my angel, you couldn't be more loved," she captioned the photo. Reese Witherspoon commented happy birthday on the post.

Sunday Rose has darker hair these days and models. She walked for Christian Dior Haute's Paris Fashion Week show on July 6, according to PEOPLE. The teenage model previously walked the red carpet at the Met Gala.

Kidman shares two kids, Bella and Connor, with her ex-husband Tom Cruise. She has two girls with ex-husband Keith Urban. Their youngest is 15-year-old Faith Margaret Kidman Urban.

The Moulin Rouge! star also celebrated a birthday on June 20. Sunday Rose posted a black-and-white photo of Kidman playing with her curly hair that day on Instagram. "Happy birthday mumma," she captioned the post. "No one I adore more."

Kidman once gifted her Oscar to her mother, then her Emmy and Golden Globe to her youngest daughters. Faith wanted it, but Sunday had a different reaction.

"I said to my oldest: 'You can put this on your shelf,’ and she said, 'No, my shelf is full, I don’t want that.’" the actress told Tatler. "Her shelf is full of snow globes and certificates and books, you know, bits and pieces and knick-knacks. I totally get it. You don’t want some trophy your mum’s won sitting up there."

Urban, 58, and Kidman got married in 2006 and divorced this year. The country singer wrote a message for Kidman on his Instagram story, "happy birthday Nicole Mary" with multiple exclamation marks on her birthday this year.

The actress didn't talk a lot during the divorce. But she opened up more with her return for Scarpetta and Practical Magic 2.

"I was quiet. I had other things going on. I was in my shell," Kidman told Variety. "Now I’m in a place of saying, '2026. Here we go,'" she later said. "I have Practical Magic with [Sandra Bullock]. I’ll be in full witch mode." The interviewer later asked directly how she was doing after the divorce.

"I am, because I’m always going to be moving toward what’s good," she answered. "What I’m grateful for is my family and keeping them as is and moving forward. That’s that. Everything else I don’t discuss out of respect. I’m staying in a place of, 'We are a family,' and that’s what we’ll continue to be. My beautiful girls, my darlings, who are suddenly women."

Several of The Gap Band's hits are still in heavy rotation today, with one in particular becoming one of the most defining tracks of the 1980s—and it remains a timeless classic 44 years later.

"Outstanding" was released in November 1982 by the musical trio, brothers Ronnie, Robert, and frontman Charlie Wilson. Written by contributor Raymond Calhoun, it appeared on the group's blockbuster album, Gap Band IV.

One of their signature songs and biggest hits, it climbed all the way to No. 1 on the Billboard Hot R&B chart, peaking at No. 51 on the Hot 100. The track has been dubbed "THE classic," with Boston's WERS FM station declaring it "might be the most popular song" ever recorded by the band. "Then the vocals of the three Wilson brothers hit you, and it puts you right into the loving mood. It is a complete jam song. It is something you can have on in the background, listen to intently, or dance to. That is the beauty of this song. It too has been sampled by multiple artists. From Notorious B.I.G. to Tyler, the Creator, 'Outstanding' has never left the musical spotlight since its debut in 1982."

The tune tells a feel-good love story, describing a man completely enamored with a woman. "Outstanding / Girl you knock me out / Excited / You make me wanna shout," the singers croon on the classic.

Wilson once admitted that of all the group's songs, "Outstanding" is the one he'd personally say "represents" The Gap Band and their remarkable impact.

He also added he could never have imagined they'd become a "staple" in music. "I wouldn't never had an idea," Wilson told NPR in 2005. "I would--not an inkling of an idea that it would last this long, either. We only was recording from our heart and just making music that felt good."

The band first formed in Tulsa, Okla., in 1967, and helped define the funk/R&B sound.

"Outstanding" became the third of four R&B chart-toppers for the band, following “Burn Rubber on Me (Why You Wanna Hurt Me)” and “Early in the Morning,” and preceding 1989's “All of My Love.” They're also known for such notable hits as "You Dropped a Bomb on Me," "Party Train," "Yearning for Your Love," "I Don't Believe You Want to Get Up and Dance (Oops Up Side Your Head)," and more, many of which became undeniable party anthems.

"And to believe that it would last this long and be in the clubs this long or for me to even be still singing this long is a blessing in itself," the legend, now 73, shared with the news outlet at the time.

Even now, 21 years after that interview, the legendary performer is still going. Despite suffering five strokes recently and losing his brothers and bandmates after both of their deaths (Robert in 2010 and Ronnie in 2021), Wilson remains an icon. In fact, he hit the stage on June 28, headlining the third day of the 2026 Hampton Jazz & Music Festival, sharing his story with the audience as he delivered a set of timeless hits.

Written in June of 1969, "Ramble On" by Led Zeppelin was recorded for their second studio album, Led Zeppelin II. The band recorded the track in New York City after guitarist Jimmy Page and lead singer Robert Plant completed writing the track.

The lyrics to "Ramble On" were heavily inspired by J.R.R. Tolkien's The Lord ofthe Rings. Many of Led Zeppelin's lyrics call back to Tolkien's work, as Plant, their main lyricist, was heavily inspired by Tolkien as a writer. "Ramble On," in particular, references Mordor, Gollum, and "The Evil One," aka Sauron. Additionally, the line "Leaves are falling all around" is a play on Tolkien's "Ah! like gold fall the leaves in the wind" from his Elvish poem, "Namárië."

A review of the song for Rolling Stonewrote, "The narrator of [Led Zeppelin's] 1969 classic 'Ramble On' finds himself in a very bizarre version of Middle Earth – a land where Mordor appears to be a great place to meet beautiful women, and Gollum and Sauron are more interested in fighting over the narrator's girlfriend than getting their hands on the One Ring."

While "Ramble On" was not initially released as a single, Led Zeppelin II went on to chart at number one in both the United States and the United Kingdom. In the several decades since its release, the album has sold over 12 million copies worldwide. The song was included on Rolling Stone's list of the "500 Greatest Songs of All Time" and ranked number 5 on the best songs by Led Zeppelin by the same publication.

Dave Lewis wrote in his bookLed Zeppelin: A Celebration that "Ramble On" was "the highlight" of Led Zeppelin II. For American Songwriter, Jacob Uitti called the song"one of the band's best."

Before 1980, "Ramble On" was never played live in its entirety by the original band. The full track was first performed live on December 10th, 2007, at a London performance.

A new supergroup is in the making thanks to an upcoming concert in celebration of punk legends The Ramones.

2026 marks five decades since the band released their debut self-titled album, and to honor the music icons' enduring legacy, The Official Ramones 50th Anniversary Tribute will see some huge stars make history with a brand new band made up of some of the biggest names in music.

Taking place on Aug. 30 at Hollywood Forever Cemetery in Los Angeles, the tribute event will feature the debut performance of Cretin Family, a punk supergroup formed of Green Day front manBillie Joe Armstrong, Rancid’s Tim Armstrong, and Blink-182 drummer Travis Barkeralongside latter-day Ramones bassist C.J. Ramone.

"The spirit of the Ramones is alive in every backyard punk show, punk club, and festival," Armstrong said in a statement, per Rolling Stone. "Generation after generation of cretins and weirdos become Ramones lovers. Kids are influenced by the Ramones and they don’t even know it yet. ¡Viva Ramones!"

View this post on Instagram

Barker also shared his excitement for the tribute, stating, "Ramones are the blueprint. Punk rock wouldn’t be what it is today without them. I’m honored to celebrate 50 years of one of the greatest bands ever."

Hosted byJohn Travolta, The Official Ramones 50th Anniversary Tribute will also feature a 50th-anniversary screening of Travolta’s 1976 movie, cult classic horror Carrie, along with a screening of his latest film, Propeller One-Way Night Coach.

The Ramones called it quits in 1996 after over two decades of back-to-back tours. While all of the original members of the band have died, the later-era members are keeping the music alive. Drummer Marky Ramone, who played with the band on and off again from the late '70s through the mid '90s, fronts Marky Ramone’s Blitzkrieg, while C.J. and Richie Ramone lead their own touring bands which focus on the classic hits.

There are three things guaranteed in the world today: Death, taxes, and Jeopardy! being on. Believe it or not, the iconic game show has been on the air for over 60 years (though the modern incarnation we know and love technically debuted in 1984). Under the watchful eye of Ken Jennings (who himself was a record-breaking champion), Jeopardy! puts three people's trivia skills and reflexes to the ultimate test. And so many of the greats to grace those podiums started by simply watching the show as it aired on weekdays, as millions have done for over half a century.

Here's a spoiler-filled recap of who won Jeopardy! today, plus the answer to Final Jeopardy.

Any reason to talk to Robert Irwin is a great one. I’ve personally chatted with him about endometriosis, while he supported his sister’s journey living with it at the Endometriosis Ball. And of course about Wildlife Warriors with his mother, Terri Irwin, at The Steve Irwin Ball.  But when given the opportunity to chat with him about his own passion project, the Crikey! Magazine Photography Competition, I was thrilled.

I was always curious why his Instagram handle has stayed "Robertirwinphotography "despite his charm and talents leading him into many other ventures (like underwear modeling!). It’s because photography is just as much a part of him as loving animals is.

“This has been a passion project of mine and ours for a very long time," the 22-year-old says in an interview with Parade. "A lot of people might not realize this, but there's this part of my life that's been really probably the most formative part of my life and really created the person I am today, which is photography.”

Check out our full interview with Irwin below, including judging wildlife photography versus mentoring dancing pros on Dancing with the Stars: The Next Pro, where he got his photography beginnings, and what animals are on his bucket list to photograph (yes, there are some animals even he hasn’t met yet!).

The last time we talked was at the Steve Irwin Ball for Wildlife Warriors. I think Witney’s husband buying your Dancing with the Stars outfit will be a core memory for me.
Oh, that was iconic! I looked over, and I realized. I'm like, "That's Witney and Carson…" And it was so funny because I could see Witney just melting, going, "Stop, stop, stop." And Carson, her husband, who's just the absolute greatest, he's just like, "No! I'm getting this." It was so funny. And he did! He got it. I think it landed at $36,000. So he helped a lot of animals with that. So, hey, on behalf of wildlife conservation, thank you to the McAllister family!

Tell me more about this project, the Crikey! Magazine Photography Competition, and how it started.
I've spent most of my life, obviously, on camera, advocating for the environment, but also behind the camera and behind the lens. I've spent many, many years of my life capturing nature through photography. And growing up, [it] was my kind of individual way of spreading this conservation message that I'm so passionate about. 

If you are a photographer, you enter a big competition. That's what really gets your work to the next level. And when you're a wildlife photographer, the whole point is to share stories of conservation. It's about helping the natural world. And I found growing up, there wasn't a lot that was geared towards young people who have that interest in photography. So we wanted to create something ourselves that was new, it was fresh, it was different.

So we created the Crikey! Magazine Photography Competition. The Crikey! magazine is our quarterly international edition, all about conservation and animals. This is the 10th year, and we're encouraging people from everywhere, any age, around the world, whether you're an established professional photographer or you're ten years old and you're just starting out, there's a category for you to tell your story. I'm on the judging panel. I get to see all of the images that are entered. It is just like the ultimate passion project. 

When did you discover that you had an eye for photography?
I always obviously had such an affinity with the natural world. I think growing up in a zoo, you can't help but fall in love with nature. I've gotten to travel around the world and seen conservation on the front line. It gave me this sense, this need to try and protect the environment. And then being part of animal documentaries since I was really young, you've always got a camera around, and I think that's what made me realize, 'Okay, the camera is really the tool.' That's the vessel between what I see on the front line and then amplifying that to the world. 

So I picked up a camera, and I started looking at it from an artistic perspective. It just became the biggest part of my life from about age ten, all the way through my teenage years. I've always got a camera with me. Now it's about I know that feeling that it gave me as a kid, and I want to give other kids that feeling. 

Since you said you were going to be a judge, is there any overlap from how you would judge or going to judge these professional dancers on Dancing with the Stars: The Next Pro? Anything that is a visual or artistic expression shares common ground. Whether you are a dancer or a poet or a painter or a filmmaker, a photographer, whatever it is, if you are using the visual arts or using any kind of artistic medium to express yourself or what you love, it's the same thing in different fonts.

Doing The Next Pro, this new era of Dancing with the Stars, which comes out July 13th,  was interesting because I kind of took a different position. I had spent three months in the ballroom dancing, and then all of a sudden, I was actually like a host and sort of almost a mentor to these incredible dancers. Not a mentor for how to dance; they're better than I'll ever be. But to mentor how to tell stories through dance and how to really express yourself and your creativity. And it was fun to watch people, the best in their craft, just giving everything to what they love. When I judge the photography competition, [it 's] the exact same thing. These are the top people, incredible individuals that are doing so well that now the world knows about.

Is there an animal you have not gotten to take a picture of yet that you would want?
There are so many, so many animals that I haven't even seen in the wild. I feel like people often assume they kind of think, 'Oh, wow, you sort of grew up with it. You've seen everything. You've been everywhere and seen all the animals.' It doesn't matter if this is your life and your passion and your conservationist, you will never see everything there is to see within the natural world. And anyone who has a passion for wildlife will tell you they have a list that's a mile long of what they want to see next. 

I haven't been to South America. That's like one continent that I still haven't been to, and I've always wanted to see sloths in the wild. I've always wanted to go to the Galapagos. I have a love for Komodo dragons. I've never photographed them in the wild. That is absolutely top of my list. Obviously, snow leopards. I think as a photographer, that is the pinnacle. Polar bears! That's another one that I've always wanted to see. A polar bear in the wild. I think I would just squeal with excitement if I saw one of them.

How do you approach the world of AI as a photographer, especially with AI affecting wildlife so much?
As with any advancement in technology, I think we sometimes forget about the environmental destruction that it can cause. I can definitely speak through, pun intended, the lens of photography. With AI, I think not only does it take away from the artistry of photography, but it also dilutes what is impressive. Because we've seen so many incredible things, we don't realize that what is real and that's more amazing because it's real, you know?

I'm looking for storytelling that shows nature as it's intended. You're not meddling with anything. You're letting nature take its course, and you're photographing it in its true and raw state. I don't care how many AI photos you see. When you see a real, true representation of nature, there is a visceral feeling that hits you in the heart; you just can't deny it. I think storytelling and art has to be authentic, and that is just so important. In wildlife photography, we need a true and authentic representation of nature. In our competition at least, there is no room for AI, that's for sure. It ain't happening.

Matt Bellamy, frontman of the Brit rock outfitMuse, looked back on the 20-year milestone the band is hitting with their 2006 release, "Black Holes and Revelations," with an update on how the hit record will be celebrated.

In an interview with NME, the lead singer discussed that while the band is currently touring their latest release, "The Wow! Signal," a major album birthday snuck up on them. “I think we’re supposed to do some kind of anniversary package, and I’ve got loads of missed emails from management saying we need this, this and this."

He continued, "We'll probably try to put together some kind of anniversary package," which should entice fans enough, particularly the Twi-hard generation. The 2006 album featured "Supermassive Black Hole," a prominent needle drop in the Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart starringTwilight film franchise. The song was the soundtrack to the iconic Cullen family vampirebaseball scene, and Muse's feature greatly expanded the band's popularity stateside.

The album reached No. 1 on the UK album charts for 2 weeks, along with five other countries overall, though it did not climb to the top in the U.S. Instead, it peaked at No. 9 on the Billboard 200, still going on to mark Muse’s first U.S. Top 10 album. 

Bellamy told the outlet that performing songs from the hit album is not off the table as he considers adding music from it to their current tour, stating that they may "bring ‘Take A Bow’ into the set,” and offered up the possibility of more for fans, adding, "Whether we play the whole album at some point, that could be an option," which would be amazing for early Muse fans who wanted to see the album during its original tour but had to duke it out for tickets thanks to the band's popularity during the height of Twilight mania.

It's surprising the band has not taken their legendary records, such as "Absolution" and "Black Holes and Revelation," back out on the road. A double album tour of their iconic space rock origins with a live orchestra in a global stadium tour would be incredible. For now, the band is on tour and heading to the states this summer.

Nearly six decades after it first roared into theaters, Easy Rider has picked up another major honor.

BBC Music Magazine has ranked the soundtrack to the 1969 counterculture classic as the greatest movie soundtrack of all time, arguing that it didn't just feature great songs, it fundamentally changed how Hollywood used popular music in film.

The publication praised the soundtrack for breaking with convention by relying on contemporary rock songs instead of a traditional orchestral score. Even more importantly, the music wasn't simply background noise. Songs were carefully chosen to help tell the story and reflect the emotional journey of Peter Fonda and Dennis Hopper's freewheeling cross-country odyssey.

The magazine wrote that Easy Rider "gave the movie industry in the US a huge kick in the butt" while calling its soundtrack "equally pioneering." It singled out memorable tracks including Steppenwolf's "Born to Be Wild," the Jimi Hendrix Experience's "If 6 Was 9," The Byrds' "Wasn't Born to Follow" and The Electric Prunes' "Mass In F Minor" as highlights of an album that helped redefine movie soundtracks.

Released in 1969, Easy Rider followed bikers Wyatt (Fonda) and Billy (Hopper) as they traveled across the American Southwest after a drug deal, encountering communes, prejudice and violence along the way. Jack Nicholson earned his first Academy Award nomination for his breakout supporting performance as attorney George Hanson, while the film itself received a second Oscar nomination for Best Original Screenplay. Produced for a reported budget of about $400,000, it went on to gross roughly $60 million worldwide and became one of the defining films of the New Hollywood era.

The soundtrack became a hit in its own right. Released shortly after the film, it climbed to No. 6 on the Billboard 200 and earned a Gold certification. Its blend of contemporary rock helped establish a new template that countless filmmakers would follow in the decades that came after.

BBC Music Magazine's top five greatest rock movie soundtracks are:

• Easy Rider (1969)
• American Graffiti (1973)
• Almost Famous (2000)
• Purple Rain (1984)
• Help! (1965)

The magazine's top 10 also included Pat Garrett & Billy the Kid, The Graduate, Pulp Fiction, The Big Chill and Trainspotting, underscoring just how influential Easy Rider's No. 1 finish is among some of the most celebrated soundtracks ever assembled.

More than 55 years after its release, Easy Rider remains a cultural landmark. In 1998, the film was selected for preservation in the National Film Registry for being "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant," and its soundtrack continues to stand as one of the earliest and most influential examples of popular music becoming an essential part of cinematic storytelling.

Survivor 50 star Rick Devens is joining the cast of Big Brother 28!

According to Entertainment Weekly, the news anchor will be one of the houseguests competing on the upcoming season of the CBS reality series. Big Brotherrevealed 14 of this season's contestants on Tuesday, July 7, via their YouTube channel.

And, according to the outlet, Devens is not the only former Survivor castaway that will be on BB28. A second Survivor alum is also reported to be competing for the $750,000 grand prize, but that persons's identity has not been revealed just yet.

CBS has not confirmed reports that Devens and another Survivor contestant are joining the cast. If true, however, they wouldn't be the only reality TV alumni on Big Brother 28. Tuesday's cast reveal confirmed that RuPaul's Drag Race star Salina EsTitties will also compete this season under their offstage name, Jason De Puy.

Devens first appeared on reality TV in Survivor: Edge of Extinction in 2019, where he finished in fourth place. Although he was originally brought onto Survivor 50: In the Hands of the Fans as an alternate, the fan favorite ultimately made the cast and became one of the season's biggest standouts.

Most memorably, Devens saved himself from elimination at two consecutive Tribal Councils and doubled the $1 million grand prize to $2 million after winning a coin flip brought to the show by MrBeast. He finished in seventh place.

Devens is far from the first Survivor castaway to cross over to Big Brother. Big Brother 25 featured Cirie Fields, while Hayden Moss and Caleb Reynolds competed on Survivor after their respective Big Brother runs.

Big Brother returns to CBS and Paramount+ on Thursday, July 9. The remaining houseguests will be revealed during the premiere episode.

Dolly Parton’s bio-musical, Dolly: A True Original Musical, is coming to Broadway! But that’s not even the best part. The show’s Broadway opening night is also the icon’s 81st birthday.

In a pre-recorded video statement, Parton tells fans, “I have some big news that I’m so excited to share. I can officially announce that Dolly: A True Original Musical is coming to Broadway and you're invited.”

She continues, giving us a glimpse of what to expect, “Just like the title says, I mean true in every sense of the word. Now this isn’t about a story about sparkle and shine on the outside. It’s about where I really come from. What I’ve lived. What I’ve lost. What I’ve loved. And how I found my way and told it in my own words and through the music that’s been part of me every step of the journey…This really is a dream come true.”

Broadway previews at the St. James Theatre in New York City start this December. Opening night (and Dolly’s birthday) is January 19.2027.

Storage doesn't have to mean settling for boring plastic bins that do the job but aren't much to look at. The best organizers do two jobs at once, hiding everyday clutter while looking like part of your decor. Right now, Wayfair has a set of chic rattan storage boxes from Kelly Clarkson that' deliver on both style and functionality, and they’re marked down by 45%.

The Kelly Clarkson Home Woven Rattan Decorative Box Set is on sale for just $41, down from $75. The two-piece set includes handmade woven rattan boxes in two sizes, each with a fitted lid, bronze latches, and a warm earthy tone that complements most decor styles. Shoppers called the boxes "super cute" and "great quality," saying they look right at home on console tables, bookshelves, and coffee tables.

Decorative storage should do more than hide the mess — it should enhance the room, too, which is why this set is such a great find. It has bronze hinged latches and fitted lids that keep everything looking clean and tidy. One Wayfair shopper described the set as "very high-end looking." Another said they're "so pretty and exactly what I wanted to add a little island feel." 

The set includes two coordinating boxes for flexible storage throughout your home. The smaller measures 3.6 inches tall, 5 inches wide, and 5 inches deep, while the larger comes in at around 5.2 inches tall, 7.2 inches wide, and 7.3 inches deep. You can display them together on a console table or bookshelf, or use them in separate rooms to corral remotes, charging cords and other small items. 

Rubber pads on the bottom protect your furniture  and floors from scratches and keep the boxes from sliding around. As one shopper wrote, "I like the square shape of them. They will be perfect on my coffee table for the remotes." 

Because they're handmade, no two are exactly alike, so buyers should expect small differences in shape, size, and color. Those slight variations in appearance coupled with the coastal, vintage-style woven design give these boxes even more of an heirloom-esque quality. The set is intended for indoor use only. To keep them clean, just wipe them down with a dry cloth as needed.

If you need extra storage, consider the larger version of the set, which is also on sale for $61. The two boxes feature a wider, flatter design, measuring 2.5 inches by 8 inches by 8 inches and 3.2 inches by 10.2 inches by 10.6 inches. Shoppers should take note, though, that the larger set is currently backordered, so shipping could take six to seven weeks.

Sixpence None the Richer was forced to cancel all remaining tour stops after the sudden death of their bassist, Justin Cary, last month.

"We are completely heartbroken over the tragic and untimely loss of our bandmate, brother-in-arms, and friend for 30 years, Justin Cary," lead vocalist Leigh Nash shared via Instagram on Tuesday, July 7. "The past three years had been full of international tours, recording new music, and an even further deepening of the joy of making music together. We were looking forward to connection with new and old fans around the world this summer and fall, but for now we need time to be still and grieve. With heavy hearts, we are canceling all remaining tour dates for 2026."

Nash and guitarist Matt Slocum shared a series of photos from the band's time together alongside their joint statement.

The devastating news comes just weeks after Cary suffered a fatal stroke on June 11 at the age of 50.

"Our brother of 30 years (and bassist), Justin had a stroke Thursday night," Nash announced via Instagram at the time. "His wonderful wife Linda has kept us updated everyday and night too. She is lovely, delicate and unfathomably heartbroken. We love our brother so so much. Words don’t cover it. I know so many out there love him too. Saw his brilliance, second to NONE professionalism, class, humor (oh my lord the humor) wit, tough as an old boot as they say. Many more adjectives to describe him. Please pray for Justin and Linda."

Following Cary's death, a GoFundMe was set up to help his wife and raised more than $50,000.

The band was set to embark on a 2026 tour throughout the United States and the United Kingdom this summer.

Love Island USA fans need to prepare as voting on the Peacock reality series is set to open up again later tonight, but before the vote begins, the series issues a warning to fans as a new twist is set to shake up the dynamic in the villa once again.

The official Love Island USA app teased the upcoming vote, “Tonight’s vote isn’t like the others,” the app teased. “We can’t spill the tea just yet, but we can give you one very important hint: Read. The. Vote. Subtitle. Carefully.”

The app gave one more cryptic clue regarding what the vote will entail, sharing “This little twist is something you’ve asked for… You are very welcome.”

Fans began speculating on what the ‘twist’ could be on social media. One user wrote on X (formerly Twitter), “streets saying Love Island might be having a 'least compatible' couple vote tonight….. I NEED EVERYONE TO READ BEFORE THEY VOTE ISTG”
