It's hard to pinpoint any book that has had as lasting of an impact on true crime as In Cold Blood.

The bestselling work by Truman Capote has been ranked among the greatest books of all time by The Greatest Books, a site that compiles and weights rankings from numerous credible literary lists to determine consensus classics. Its placement reflects both critical acclaim and its influence across generations of readers, not to mention the genre.

Published in 1966, In Cold Blood tells the real-life story of the 1959 murders of the Clutter family in Kansas. What set the book apart was Capote's approach, blending journalistic reporting with novelistic storytelling, a style he famously described as the "nonfiction novel." The result was a gripping, deeply psychological narrative that explored not only the crime itself, but the lives of both the victims and the perpetrators.

"Several admirable reporters--Rebecca West for one, and Joseph Mitchell and Lillian Ross--have shown the possibilities of narrative reportage; and Miss Ross, in her brilliant 'Picture,' achieved at least a nonfiction novella. Still, on the whole, journalism is the most underestimated, the least explored of literary mediums," Capote told The New York Times in 1966 of his unconventional style.

The book is widely credited with shaping the modern true crime genre, setting a template for countless works that followed. Its detailed character studies and immersive storytelling elevated it beyond a simple retelling of events, turning it into a landmark in American literature.

"When I first formed my theories concerning the nonfiction novel, many people with whom I discussed the matter were unsympathetic," Capote explained. "They felt that what I proposed, a narrative form that employed all the techniques of fictional art but was nevertheless immaculately factual, was little more than a literary solution for fatigued novelists suffering from 'failure of imagination.' Personally, I felt that this attitude represented a 'failure of imagination' on their part."

The story has been adapted multiple times for the screen, beginning with In Cold Blood, a stark and critically acclaimed film that stayed closely aligned with Capote's original narrative. A later television adaptation further revisited the story for new audiences.

Capote's own experience writing the book became the subject of the film Capote, starring Philip Seymour Hoffman, who won the Academy Award for Best Actor for his portrayal. The film explores Capote's complex relationship with the case and the emotional toll of immersing himself so deeply in the lives of the killers.

Decades after its release, In Cold Blood remains both celebrated and debated, praised for its innovation while raising ethical questions about the boundaries between journalism and storytelling.

"I think I have a really great gift, and I owe it somehow to get it out!" Capote told Vogue in 1979. "But I have to get it out the best possible way, and that is what makes an artist have a career: it is this integrity of holding on, holding on, holding on no matter what."

With its inclusion among the greatest books of all time, the novel stands as a true crime classic, one that forever changed how real-life stories are told.

A film director is the creative leader of a movie production and is responsible for all things like interpretation and management of the artistic aspect, but sometimes, they risk it all.

This was the case for the late French filmmaker and actor Jacques Tati, who famously went bankrupt after his 1967 film, Playtime. Also writing, directing and starring in the comedy film, he reprises his role of Monsieur Hulot from his earlier films: Vacances de Monsieur Hulot and Mon Oncle. Despite its commercial failure during its release, it became Tati's most daring work and eventually ranked as one of the greatest films of all time, according to Rotten Tomatoes, a popular movie ranking site.

To create his vision for Playtime, he built an entire functioning city set, known as "Tativille," right outside of Paris, complete with its own power plant and roads. Trying to create a futuristic version of France's capital, the construction of the set and filming needed a massive budget, and it was one of the most expensive French films to ever be made. To completely finance the project, he mortgaged his previous successful films and his own home.

In addition, the late director and actor insisted on filming Playtime in 70mm, which is very expensive, but large enough to capture each scene. Filming took a span of three years, from 1964 to 1966.

Playtime is not your typical comedy movie, though. The movie runs a little over two and a half hours, and there are very few lines of dialogue. Instead of leaning on monologues, jokes or one-liners, the story and the comedic effect of Playtime are entirely visual. Despite its differences from today's comedies, it inspired many of today's household filmmakers, including David Lynch and Wes Anderson.

Playtime flopped at the box office during its release because it was very different from his previous movies. Due to the poor reviews, it failed to secure a wider U.S. release. The failure of the comedy film, which also starred Barbara Dennek, Rita Maiden, France Rumilly and more, resulted in Tati's production company, Specta Films, being placed into administration and eventually closed down in 1974. To settle his debt, Tati was forced to sell the rights to his films and his personal home.

Tati didn't give up, and he created a new production company and reprised Hulot in a more modest film titled Trafic in 1971. He created another movie named Parade three years later, which ended up being his last film, before his death in November 1982 at 75 years old.

Years after his death, his children, Sophie and Pierre, started working on regaining the rights to their father's film and maintaining his legacy. The film that almost destroyed him ended up being his magnum opus, and it still makes an impact almost 60 years later.

Playtime can be rented on Apple TV and Amazon Prime Video for $3.99, and on Fandango at Home for $5.99.

The '80s were full of soft rock tracks that tackled the concept of love, from heartbreak and breakups to finding the right person. In 1989, Richard Marx released a chart-topping hit written as a love letter to his wife that became an era classic.

"Right Here Waiting" was released as part of Marx's second studio album, Repeat Offender, as his second single. The track's title is fitting when knowing the backstory behind the inspiration for its lyrics and message. It talks about being "oceans apart" and waiting for the person they love to finally return home.

In truth, Marx wrote "Right Here Waiting" as a love letter to actor Cynthia Rhodes, who was away in South Africa filming one of her movies. Many know her here for her infamous role as Penny in Dirty Dancing, Tina Tech in Flashdance, and Jackie in Staying Alive. She met Marx while he was working on the soundtrack for Staying Alive, but he thought at the time she was too young for him to date. They met again two years later and married in 1989.

Based on Rhodes' filmography, she was in Africa filming Curse of the Crystal Eye when Marx wrote "Right Here Waiting." According to SongFacts, Marx and Rhodes weren't married yet at the time, and he was eager to go see her.

"But my visa application was rejected and when I came back I wrote this song which was more of a letter from me to her. It was the fastest song I wrote, in barely 20 minutes. And this was the time when there was no Skype and Social networking so I had to ship the track to her. The song was very personal and was not intended to go public. But my friends pursued me to record it," he said.

Marx had no intention of singing the track because of how personal it was to him. It was originally going to Barbara Streisand, who agreed only if he changed the lyrics. She stated it was because "I’m not gonna be right here waiting for anyone." Her rejection led Marx to have a No.1 chart-topper.

"Right Here Waiting" entered the Billboard Hot 100 charts at No. 44 in early June of that year, and peaked at No.1 in mid-August. It kept its spot for three consecutive weeks and became Marx's third chart-topping track. The single even charted on Billboard's Adult Contemporary charts and became certified Platinum.

The Young and the Restless newcomer and Daytime Emmy winner Roger Howarth is opening up about how he approached taking over the role of the villainous role of Matt Clark.

Howarth is the fourth actor to play Matt Clark. Eddie Cibrian originated the role in 1994. The character was later recast in 2000 with Russell Lawrence, before Rick Hearst took over until Matt was written out in November 2001.

Howarth discussed the role in an interview with TV Insider’s Stephanie Sloane, where he reflected on joining the top-rated soap and teased what viewers can expect.

Asked about his approach, Howarth said, “I trust the writing and I think that the writers have a clear vision of who this guy is.”

Executive producer and head writer Josh Griffith has led the soap since 2019. He previously worked with Howarth on One Life to Live, where Howarth rose to fame as Todd Manning.

Howarth said he hasn’t focused on revisiting the character’s past scenes, choosing instead to focus on the current scripts. “I really just try to stick to what I could figure out from what they were writing rather than try to do what the other two actors who’ve played the part did.”

That does not mean he lacks appreciation for his predecessors. “I’m a fan of both of them. I have a huge respect for them. I know Rick a little bit and he’s a lovely guy,” he said.

Howarth added that the key is moving the character forward rather than recreating the past. “On some level, you have to just do your thing with what the writers give you,” he added. “That’s probably the best way to go about it.”

Howarth has enjoyed a successful daytime career since debuting on Loving in 1992 as Kent Winslow and later appearing on Guiding Light as Jory. He later became a soap icon on One Life to Live as Todd Manning, followed by an eight-year run on As The World Turns as Paul Ryan, before joining General Hospital, where he played three different roles over 11 years.

Howarth stepped away from General Hospital and daytime television in 2023 before returning as Matt Clark on The Young and the Restless in 2025.

The Young and the Restless airs weekdays on CBS with episodes streaming weeknights on Paramount Plus.

A surprise on French television turned a routine press tour stop into one of the most emotional moments of Meryl Streep's career.

While promoting The Devil Wears Prada 2 alongside Stanley Tucci on Journal de 20 heures, the Oscar winner was handed a tablet by host Laurent Delahousse and told to press play. What she saw made her clutch her chest and tear up on live air. The video came from Jennifer Lawn Lejeune, the actress who played Streep's daughter Eva Zawistowska in the 1982 drama Sophie's Choice. Lejeune was 4 years old when she filmed the role. She now lives in France, where she works in finance.

A Full-Circle Moment 44 Years in the Making

In the message, Lejeune recalled telling her own mother, after working with Streep, that the actress was her "favorite mother" because Streep "was always nice to me and playing with me," she said in the clip aired byJournal de 20 heures.

Streep, watching the woman speak, asked the host quietly, "That's the child?" Her eyes welled. "What a gift," she said.

Why 'Sophie's Choice' Still Hits

Released in 1982 and directed by Alan J. Pakula from his own adapted screenplay, Sophie's Choice earned Streep her first Best Actress Oscar at the 55th Academy Awards. Adapted from the William Styron novel, the film follows a Polish immigrant in Brooklyn carrying a devastating secret from Auschwitz. Sophie's Choice also marked Kevin Kline's feature-film debut, opposite Peter MacNicol as the young writer Stingo.

Lejeune appeared in the harrowing flashback in which Sophie is forced to choose which of her two children survives. In a 2014 Blu-ray commentary, Lejeune said the separation scene was shot 13 times.

Theaters in 4 Days

The reunion came as Streep, Tucci, Anne Hathaway and Emily Blunt wrap the press push for The Devil Wears Prada 2, which world-premiered April 20, 2026 at Lincoln Center's David Geffen Hall in New York. Lady Gaga joins the sequel cast. The film opens in U.S. theaters Friday, May 1, 2026, via 20th Century Studios.

For all the fashion and the spectacle on the press tour, the Journal de 20 heures moment cut through differently. Forty-four years after the cameras stopped rolling on a 4-year-old playing her daughter, the bond translated through a screen.

Creating a home that feels warm, stylish, and uniquely personal doesn't require a full renovation. Sometimes, all it takes is the right statement piece to transform an entire room. In today's interior design trends, organic shapes, natural textures, and warm tones are leading the way. Homeowners and renters alike are leaning into decor that softens harsh lines and introduces a sense of calm, curated imperfection.

Wall decor, in particular, plays a crucial role in defining a space. Mirrors are no longer just functional—they are now central design elements used to reflect light, create depth, and enhance aesthetic appeal. From minimalist interiors to cozy, rustic settings, the right mirror can tie a room together while also making it feel larger and brighter.

The Goo Goo Dolls have some exciting news for the O.G fans.

The iconic rock band that rose to fame in the late 1990sannounced on their Instagram this Monday afternoon that they released a music video for their hit song "Better Days," to celebrate the 20th anniversary of their eighth studio album, Let Love In, which took place on Saturday. A deluxe edition celebrating this milestone will be released on July 24.

The album, released on April 25, 2006, sold 83,000 copies in its first week and peaked at No. 9 on the Billboard 200. In May 2019, the album was certified Gold by the Recording Industry Association of America. "Better Days" served as the lead single for the record, and the fourth song on the tracklist.

"To celebrate 20 years of our album Let Love In, we’ve just made the 'Better Days' music video available in 4k 💜," the Goo Goo Dolls wrote as their caption. "Watch it now at the link in our bio."

The news comes five months after the band concluded their Summer Anthem Tour, which celebrated the 30th anniversary of their fifth studio album, A Boy Named Goo. The lineup of North America shows started in Phoenix on July 13, then concluded on Sept. 12 in Missouri. In addition, the rock band released a 30th anniversary deluxe version of the record, which includes additional covers and live performances of their hit songs.

The Goo Goo Dolls will be going on tour again this summer with support from rock band Neon Trees. Their upcoming shows will take them across the United States, starting in California on July 24, then ending in Pennsylvania on Sept. 5. The current members of the band, which include John Rzeznik and Robby Takac, alongside touring members Brad Fernquist, Craig Macintyre and Jim McGorman, are also expected to make stops in Idaho, Alabama, Florida, Missouri, New York and more.

Despite being a lead single for Let Love In, one of The Goo Goo Dolls' most successful albums, there was never an official music video until now. Instead, they used the song for a 90-second montage for the Buffalo Sabres, which ruled the hockey world in 2007, after winning the Presidents' Trophy during the regular season.

"I love that the song was part of such an amazing time for the Sabres and for Buffalo," the frontman told The Athletic back in June 2020. The Goo Goo Dolls were formed in Buffalo in 1985, originally as a cover band, where Rzeznik was born and raised.

"It's one of those things that still sticks with people, and I guess, for lack of a better term, reminds them of better days," the Buffalo Sabres' Television Director Matt Gould added. "I still get chills from it."

After 10 years of releasing albums, The Goo Goo Dolls eventually evolved into a punk band and gained mainstream attention thanks to the release of their breakthrough single "Name." In 1998, they released "Iris" for the soundtrack of the film City of Angels and the lead single for their sixth album, Dizzy Up the Girl. The song spent 11 months on the Billboard Hot 100 and peaked at No. 1 on the publication's Hot 100 Airplay chart (now called the Radio Songs Chart) for 18 weeks. Currently, "Iris" has over 3.3 billion streams on Spotify. Despite its success, it never topped the Hot 100 chart.

The 20th Anniversary Edition of Let Love In will be released on July 24. Meanwhile, the music video for "Better Days" is out now.

Beyoncé fans are eagerly awaiting the next album, which fans have dubbed as her Act III album. Per usual, Beyoncé is a master at teasing her fans into breathless fervor with almost anything she does. So when Bey dropped a carousel of gorgeous photos in a purple ruffly Saint Laurent gown early this morning, fans got right to work, and they're now convinced the photos hint at her new album on several fronts.

Here's what hints Beyoncé fans have decoded so far:

Is Beyoncé's new album almost here?

Beyoncé superfans have spotted a few direct references to her Lemonade album among the new images. For one, the brightly color ruffled dress has the same unapologetic power diva flow as her yellow Lemonade gown by Peter Dundas for Roberto Cavalli. But more specifically, the image of her coming down the stairs invokes an exact image on the stairs in her "Hold Up" video. In both visuals, Beyoncé is descending. So maybe that's the message—a new Beyoncé album is on its way. Could this be the first teaser for the new album?

Several commenters on Beyoncé's post think so:

• "SHE COMING"
• "i smell an announcement coming 👀🐝👑"
• "its timeeeeee"
• "Bey you been a little TOO active 👀"
• "And so it beginith"
• "You better serve ACT III tease 😩❤️‍🔥"
• "Act iii crumbs 😍"
• "The queen stepping out"
• "omggg she cominggggg 💜💜💜"

Check out some side-by-side photos, linking the new photoshoot to visuals from Lemonade:

View this post on Instagram Will Beyoncé's new album be an alternate Lemonade?

One Beyoncé fan on TikTok called a "Beyhive midnight emergency" and takes the Lemonade visual connection even further, asking, "Are we getting an alternate Lemonade?" What would that look like? Only Beyoncé can tell us.

Of course, Bey could simply be giving a 10-year anniversary nod to Lemonade. April 23, 2026, marked a decade since the visual project and sixth album, Lemonade, was released.

Will Beyoncé's next album will be inspired by Prince?

Rumors have long been swirling that Bey's new Act III album will be rock-focused, the third in a trilogy of works reclaiming musical genres with a deeply Black historical influence—her albums Renaissance dove into dance music and Cowboy Carter into country. But now the latest purple-fied photo drop has fans wondering if there's a connection to one Black musical genius forever linked to his heavy rock guitar perfection—and that's Prince.

Fans in the comments are seeing purple:

• "SHE COMING…🥹 come on Purple Rain!"
• "Purple rain ohhh baby ACT 3 IS COMING 🔥🔥🔥🔥"
• "You think you're slick with the purple color😏"

No man or woman has Meryl Streep beat when it comes to Oscar nominations. She currently has 21 nominations and 3 wins. Streep, 76, once revealed her acting inspiration.

She was a student at Yale when she saw 29-year-oldRobert De Niro in Bang the Drum Slowly. Streep was shocked to find out he was far from his Southerner role. He was closer to her own background. Streep is from Connecticut and De Niro is from New York.

"Over the years, people have always said to me, ‘What actress do you most admire? What actress’ career would you like to emulate?'" Streep said at A Celebration of Film gala, honoring De Niro in 2022, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

"But, really, the second time I saw Robert De Niro, I said to myself, that’s the kind of actor I wanna be," she continued. "That’s what I wanna do. And I wanna do it with the commitment and the passion and the skill and the beauty with which he applies to it. And he’s been my beacon for 50 years."

The actors were in both The Deer Hunterand Marvin's Room. They were nominated for an Oscar in the Vietnam War movie, the first of many for Streep. But it was 1984's Falling In Love where they played lovers.

Streep plays a commercial artist while De Niro is an architectural engineer who rides the same train. They form a friendship that turns into love. The cast is stacked with Dianne Wiest and Harvey Keitel.

Of course, the cycle continues with Streep inspiring others. Her daughters, Grace Gummer, Mamie Gummer, and Louisa Jacobson, followed in her footsteps and are acting.

The return of Floetry isn’t just a reunion—it’s a moment fans waited nearly a decade to witness again.

On April 22, that moment finally came, and it hit full force inside Washington, D.C.'s The Anthem, where London native duo Marsha Ambrosius and Natalie Stewart's Say Yes Tour stop turned into an emotional celebration of neo-soul at its finest.

One of the most anticipated stops on the spring run, which is part of a multi-city tour that launched in Newark earlier in April and spans across the U.S., the musicians didn't disappoint. Backed by a lineup that includes Raheem DeVaughn—who proved why his voice is timeless with a sultry performance and poignant display of Black pride—and Teedra Moses—who never fails to deliver a sexy set, according to fans—the Black Promoters Collective-produced show delivered a full-bodied R&B experience, blending live instrumentation with Floetry’s signature spoken-word transitions.

Fans in attendance—and across social media—described the night as “incredible,” “amazing,” "nostalgic" and “an entire vibe,” with many praising the duo’s chemistry as if no time had passed. Clips circulating online show packed crowds singing along to classics like “Say Yes” and “Getting Late,” while others highlighted the duo’s effortless interplay between Ambrosius’ powerhouse vocals and Stewart’s poetic delivery.

Online, the resounding sentiment was clear: fans were willing to wait for this moment to come, and it was worth it.

Floetry first formed in 1997 in London, breaking through in the early 2000s with a signature blend of poetry and R&B that reshaped the genre. Their debut album Floetic (2002) produced hits like “Say Yes,” helping them earn Grammy nominations (Best R&B Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocals) and a devoted fanbase.

But their journey hasn’t been linear. After an initial split around 2006 and a brief reunion run that ended in 2016, the duo once again went their separate ways—making the idea of another tour feel unlikely. The Say Yes Tour marks their first national tour together in roughly 10 years, a revival described as both a celebration and a return to the duo’s roots of intimate, live performance—and an indication that the neo-soul genre is stronger than ever.

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.

Who won Jeopardy today?Greg Shahade

Greg Shahadeended JamieDing's historic 31-game winning streak, denying him the chance to tie or beat James Holzhauer's 32-game record.

Shahade ended the game with a commanding final score of $33,000. He found all three Daily Doubles and answered correctly, wagering aggressively and building a major runaway lead going into Final Jeopardy.

Who are the Jeopardy contestants today?Greg Shahade

Katrina Puckett

Katrina Puckett is a teacher from Washington Court House, Ohio.

Jamie Ding

JamieDing is a bureaucrat and law student from Lawrenceville, New Jersey, who had an impressive 31-game streak, notching in fifth place for consecutive games won and highest winnings in regular-game play on the Leaderboard of Legends, before being defeated by Shahade. Every Jeopardy! streak has to end at some point, but as Redditors pointed out, they were "hoping we’d have a few more weeks."

He may be saying bye for now, but his legacy is secure as he finishes his run with $882,605. And it won't be the last we see of him on the Alex Trebek Stage, as he's earned a spot in the next Tournament of Champions.

What was Final Jeopardy today?

Final Jeopardy today was in the category "World Languages."

The clue: "Of South Africa's 12 official languages, these 2 are alphabetically first & last."

The answer: What are Afrikaans & Zulu?

All three contestants answered correctly, but the wagers told the real story. Shahade went into Final Jeopardy! with $32,600 and, with the game already locked up, made a conservative wager of just $400. He answered correctly and finished with $33,000, earning himself the title of new Jeopardy! champion.

Ding entered with $16,000 and wagered $3,010; although he answered correctly, he finished with $19,010, not nearly enough to catch Shahade. Meanwhile, Puckett entered with $3,000, wagered $1,990, and answered correctly, walking away with $4,990.

Shahade will return on Tuesday to defend his title.

In 1977, a song with a simple message of hope quietly made its debut only to find unexpected chart success decades later.

"Three Little Birds," released by Bob Marley and the Wailers, first appeared on the album Exodus and later in 1980 it was released as a single. Despite its now-iconic status, the track did not chart at the time of its original release.

Over the years, however, the song's gentle reassurance, "every little thing is gonna be all right," helped it grow into one of Marley's most beloved and recognizable tracks. Its laid-back rhythm and uplifting lyrics made it a global favorite, often associated with comfort, resilience and optimism.

Marley, who died at just 36 years old after battling melanoma, left behind a legacy that continues to influence music and culture around the world. "Three Little Birds" stands as one of the clearest examples of his ability to turn simple ideas into powerful, enduring messages.

More than three decades after its release, the song experienced an unexpected chart breakthrough. In 2008, child singer Connie Talbot recorded her own version, introducing the track to a new generation of listeners. Her rendition went on to reach No. 1 on the Hot Singles Sales, marking a major milestone the original recording had never achieved.

Talbot went on to pursue a decades-long career as a solo artist, releasing original music and touring having grown a devoted fan base on the heels of her childhood success.

The moment underscored the song's timeless appeal, proving that its message could transcend generations, genres and even decades.

"I was so lucky to have a career as a child and I find it hard to kind of live up to those achievements," Talbot told Unclear. "Growing up in general and in the music industry definitely had its struggles, highs and lows, meeting incredible people, and some not so much. I realized that everything has kind of led up to this point and everything has led up to this freedom of being able to write about anything I want to."

Today, "Three Little Birds" remains a cultural staple, played in everything from films to everyday life moments when reassurance is needed most.

"Communication go on, you know," Marley said in a 1980 interview. "Someone hear the truth, and tell it to someone, next one tell it to the next one. There is not no one man who really tell everyone cause each one a go teach the next one. Like you hear a good advice, you tell someone else. And it go on, you know."

What began as a quiet release in 1977 ultimately became a No. 1 hit 31 years later, solidifying its place as a timeless classic that continues to uplift listeners around the world.

Rock legend BruceSpringsteen kicked off his Sunday night concert in Austin with a ”prayer of thanks” for DonaldTrump.

The singer-songwriter is a well-known critic of the president, but put their rivalry aside during his most recent show. He shared gratitude that Trump was safe after the White House Correspondents' Dinner shooting on April 25. 

In a video circulating on social media, Springsteen told the crowd, “We begin tonight with a prayer for our men and women in service overseas, we pray for their safe return.”

The “Dancing in the Dark” singer continued, “We also send out a prayer of thanks that our president, nor anyone in the administration, nor anyone attending, was injured at last night’s incident at the [White House] press correspondents’ dinner.”

The 75-year-old singer’s disapproval of the current administration did not prevent him from condemning the recent shooting.

“We can disagree. We can be critical of those in power, and we can peacefully fight for our beliefs. But there is no place in any way, shape, or form for political violence of any kind in our beloved United States.”

This isn’t the first time the “Born to Run” singer has mentioned Trump at a concert.

At Springsteen’s 2025 European tour launch, he told his audience, "In my home, the America I love, the America I’ve written about, that has been a beacon of hope and liberty for 250 years, is currently in the hands of a corrupt, incompetent, and treasonous administration.”

The pair's long-running feud dates to 2012, before Trump entered politics.

The current president took to X after Springsteen attended a “get‑out‑the‑vote” rally for then-President BarackObama.

“Why would Ohio listen to Bruce Springsteen reading his lines? Be careful or I will go to Ohio and @MittRomney will win it,” he wrote.

Just months before the 2016 election, the “Born in the U.S.A.” singer called Trump a “moron” in RollingStone, adding that he is “a tragedy for our democracy.”

Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band are currently on the ‘Land of Hope and Dreams’ tour.

When the box office is in need of a pick-me-up, it's always a delight when superheroes enter the picture.

Later this year, December 18 to be exact, Avengers: Doomsday will hit theaters. Marvel's highly anticipated release is a direct sequel to Avengers: Endgame (2019) — which was a follow-up to Avengers: Infinity War (2018), as fans will recall.

Monday, April 27 marks eight years since Infinity War hit the mass and remains a fan-favorite. In an article published last week, Collider called the 19th film in the MCU the "greatest film" from the iconic universe, writing:

"Avengers: Infinity War is arguably one of those rare movies that felt like a true cinematic event, both in its scope and how it paid off a decade's worth of build-up. Its story is just as intense: the intergalactic tyrant Thanos (Josh Brolin) finally plans to collect the six Infinity Stones, which will allow him to wipe out half the universe. The Avengers, the Guardians of the Galaxy, and other heroes join forces to stop Thanos, grappling with questions of sacrifice along the way."

Speaking of Brolin, critics and audiences particularly favored Infinity War due to the Goonies actor's layered performance as a villain, among other perks. And let's not forget the data highlights: The 2018 blockbuster became one of the highest-grossing films of all time and climbed onto Disney+'s Top 10 list as well.

The following year came Endgame, and directors Joe Russo and Anthony Russo recently announced that the hit film would be re-released on Sept. 25 — and feature brand-new footage. They had previously revealed that Marvel’s highest-grossing film of all time would be re-released in theaters ahead of Doomsday.

Although it hasn’t been announced what the new footage will include, Joe Russo, 54, said at the recent Sands Film Festival that it’s important that Endgame gets re-released. Disney also announced that both Endgame and Doomsday would be released with Infinity Vision, “a new benchmark for theatrical presentation.” Find out more here.

Summer is right around the corner, and you know what that means: blasting classic rock anthems with windows down. And we have the perfect hit to play on repeat: the Eagles' “One of These Nights.”

Named 1975’s definitive song of summer by Business Insider, the track hit the airwaves in May that year and became a landmark anthem for the band. Not only did it signal a new era for the boys, but “One of These Nights” shifted their sound from the easygoing country-rock of their 1972 self-titled debut to a darker, more R&B-tinged vibe.

"We like to be a nice little country-rock band from Los Angeles — about half the time," Don Henley told Rolling Stone in 1975. "We wanted to get away from the ballad syndrome with 'One of These Nights.' With Don Felder in the band now, we can really rock. He's made us nastier and did a great guitar solo on the single."

Written by Henley and Glenn Frey, the title track off their June 1975 album infuses a disco-bottomed groove into the group’s signature California rock sound. 

“I'd been listening to Spinners and Al Green records when I started writing it at the piano," Frey told Rolling Stone. "Our producer, Bill Szymczyk, is a real R&B freak. He was a freelance engineer in the '60s on Aaron Neville's 'Tell It Like It Is' and B.B. King's 'The Thrill Is Gone.'"

Meanwhile, for his part, Felder crafted what is now an iconic guitar lick that actually mimics the sound of another instrument altogether. 

Speaking with Guitar Player last year, Felder said, “If you listen to that guitar solo, it’s really an alto saxophone solo. I kept listening to this track, and it wasn’t like rock ‘n’ roll. It was almost like R&B at the time.”

He added that he’s good friends with prolific saxophonist David Sanborn and put himself in Sanborn's shoes to craft his riff. "So what I did, it's really a horn part; it's got places where a sax player would stop and take a breath. It's an alto sax solo that I play on guitar."

The track marks Felder’s first credited song with the Eagles and, oh, was it a good one. Hitting No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 in August that year, “One of These Nights” was the second chart-topping single for the Eagles, with the album seeing the same success and reaching the pinnacle spot on the Billboard 200.

It’s just one of those songs.
