Gayle King is fighting back after a publication referred to her World Cup outfit as "frumpy" and "dowdy."

The CBS News anchor, 71, attended the Argentina vs. Spain final of the FIFA World Cup and posed on the red carpet at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey sporting a Boston Proper tank top, Alice + Olivia cargo pants, and silver Sneex shoes. However, an unnamed publication wasn't impressed with the legendary journalist's outfit and named her one of the “worst-dressed” stars of the big event. However, King didn't take the criticism sitting down.

During the July 21 episode of CBS Mornings, King defended her look, as did her colleagues.

“I didn’t realize that the World Cup had become such a fashion show,” King shared. “I really didn’t get it, not that I’m sensitive or anything about it,” she added.

She also pointed out that Kylie Jenner and Blake Lively were also placed on the worst-dressed list, adding, “I think all these women look great. I’m in very good company.”

King Gave a Very Revealing Interview

 King's return to the headlines comes two months after she appeared on the Wednesday, May 27, episode of the “Call Her Daddy” podcast with Alex Cooper and reflected on the moment in 1990 when she returned home after a flight was canceled, only to discover that her then-husband, William G. Bumpus, was having an affair. To make matters worse, the woman was in her home at the time.

“The alarm was set, which I thought, ‘That’s strange, because you’re in here by yourself,’” King said. “You’re a big ass, grown ass man. He never sets the alarm. And next thing I know, he comes flying out of the room and he’s got a towel on,” King shared.

Her husband told her “there’s somebody in” the house, so she started searching to find out who it was, “oblivious” to what he was telling her.

“I didn’t believe him,” she noted. “I get down and there they are — or there she is cowering behind the door in my towel. It was a nice bath sheet… I said, ‘I can’t believe that you are here and that you are doing this.’”

The children were outside with their nanny and clueless about what was happening inside.

“I was thinking, ‘The kids are here, I don’t want anybody to know,’” said King. “That was my main thought, ‘I don’t want anybody to know.’ That would not happen to me today.”

Anna Kournikova is giving fans a rare glimpse into her life as a mom.

The former tennis star, 45, took to Instagram on Monday, July 20, to share a look at her and her longtime partner Enrique Iglesias' three older children following Sunday's World Cup final match between Spain and Argentina.

In the adorable shot, the pair's eldest three children, Lucy and Nicholas, both 8, as well as Mary, 6, can be seen celebrating Spain's 1-0 win, each sporting a jersey from the country's national team.

In the photo, Kournikova's daughters posed with smiles, while Nicholas appeared to shout "Goal!" as he celebrated the moment. The proud mom kept her caption short and sweet, sharing three red heart emojis.

The love for the Spanish team runs deep in Iglesias' family, with the Spanish-born singer telling CNN in 2010 that "The World Cup is the only time my career comes second. It's crucial to me."

Missing from the photo was the pair's newest addition, their baby boy Romeo, whom they welcomed in 2025.

While they've shied away from sharing too many photos of the 7-month-old, the couple has shared a few sweet family moments throughout the past few months, including a video posted by Iglesias, which he noted was "directed" by Lucy and Mary as they played with Romeo in their backyard.

Still, the quick glimpses are rare for the pair, with the 51-year-old telling E! News that privacy is a priority for his family.

"When I go home, back home, I want to make sure that whatever goes on in my house," he said in a 2014 interview with the outlet, "it's just for me and my loved ones with me that are right there and I need that."

Ann Patchett’s new novel, Whistler, is quietly making moves on the Amazon Charts. Jumping up one spot, the novel is now ranked No. 17, just under Freida McFadden’s The Divorce and above J.K. Rowling’s ever-enduring Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows.

Whistler is enjoying its third week on the most-read fiction list, while also bobbing around on the shopping juggernaut’s most-sold fiction chart. Though it recently dropped out of the Top 5 on that survey, the novel has spent six total weeks there.

A rumination on found families and the need for human connection, Patchett’s 11th novel tells the story of 53-year-old Daphne Fuller, an English teacher at an all-girls school whose chance encounter with her former stepfather, Eddie Triplett, at a museum in New York City forges a bond that will never again be broken.

After a childhood tragedy sends their lives in different directions, the two reconnect more than four decades later. And even though the story is inspired in part by Patchett’s own childhood experience, the novel is ultimately a work of fiction.

In a conversation during the National Writers Series, via Woman’s World, Patchett shared more, revealing that she, like her protagonist, experienced a traumatic car accident in her youth.

“Yes, I was in a car accident when I was 9 with my stepfather and my sister,” she explained. “But we were hit on a Sunday morning by a drunk driver. It was an explosive accident. My sister, who was in the front seat, nearly died—and nearly died for a year after the accident.”

She continued, “I was in the back seat, and I broke my face, and I was unconscious for many, many hours. I don’t remember the accident. … I woke up in the hospital.”

Adding a finer point, she said, “It was so pivotal when I was a kid. And I believed as a child that everyone would be in a terrible car accident sooner or later. I saw it as a rite of passage. You draw from something you’ve experienced that is not the way you’ve experienced it, and yet emotionally you could say this thing happened and it was really life-changing.”

Exploring trauma and its aftermath in her latest title, as well as themes of love, memory, and connection, the novel debuted as a No. 1 New York Times bestseller and was named Heather’s Pick and Indigo’s Best Book of the Year (So Far).

The book has also made for a super-popular book club pick. Released June 2, Whistler was chosen for both Katie Couric's and Good Housekeeping’s Book Clubs. It was also one of Goodreads' most anticipated book releases of the summer. And so far, the response has been stellar.

“Ann Patchett’s new novel is a rare phenomenon in contemporary fiction: a novel both majestic and intimate, original and masterful in its structure, crystalline in its prose, revelatory in its insights, utterly devastating yet ultimately uplifting in its emotional impact,” The Boston Globe wrote in its review. “I think it is her best novel yet.”

Patchett herself is a highly acclaimed, bestselling novelist, essayist, and independent bookstore owner in Nashville, Tennessee. She is renowned for her lyrical prose and character-driven stories, with standout novels including Bel Canto, The Dutch House, and Tom Lake.

According to Variety, Amazon Prime Video is officially moving forward with a reboot series of the 1980s action classic, Robocop.

Per the outlet, Prime Video has piacked up the series with a planned eight-episode first season. The series has been in development since Amazon first acquired MGM back in 2022,

The show's official logline reads, “A giant tech conglomerate convinces the city to place a powerful robot on its police force – a robot implanted with the consciousness of a beloved, fallen officer.”

The series' producers include Peter Ocko, who will act as writer, showrunner and executive producer; James Wan, Michael Clear and Rob Hackett as executive producers through Blumhouse Atomic Monster; Michael Miner and Ed Neumeier, co-creators of the original Robocop film, as executive producers; Danielle Bozzone of Blumhouse Atomic Monster as co-executive producer; and Amazon MGM Studios.

“I’ve been a massive fan of Robocop forever, so getting to help bring this world to television is a dream,” shared Wan. “What Paul Verhoeven created in 1987 was decades ahead of its time, and its questions about technology, identity, and who corporations really serve have only grown more urgent."

"With Peter’s distinctive vision and bold approach to storytelling, and alongside Ed and our partners at Amazon MGM Studios, we’re working to honor what made the original iconic and highlight its relevancy in this modern, tech-driven world, while building something unmistakably new for a global audience," Wan continued.

“Robocop is a franchise that has meant something to audiences for nearly four decades — not just as an action spectacle, but as a sharp, provocative mirror of our relationship with technology and power,” said Peter Friedlander, head of global television for Amazon MGM Studios.

“Peter Ocko has crafted a vision that honors the soul of what made the original so enduring while building something entirely fresh and urgent for today," Friedlander added. "Paired with the cinematic sensibility of James Wan and the team at Blumhouse Atomic Monster, we believe this series will captivate a whole new generation of fans on Prime Video.”

Pumpkin spice is coming back to Dunkin', but this year it may have company. A leaked "first look" at the coffee chain's Fall 2026 menu surfaced Tuesday, July 21, when a food-news account shared a full menu graphic pointing to a rumored nationwide launch on Aug. 19.

🎃 SIGN UP for Parade's Pop Kitchen newsletter to get the latest food news and recipes delivered right to your inbox 🎃

One important caveat: this is a leak, not an official reveal. The image is credited to a Dunkin' employee, and the chain has not confirmed the lineup or the date, so treat everything as a well-sourced rumor for now. Dunkin' pulled the same late-summer timing last year, when a similar fall-menu leak previewed the season before it launched.

View this post on Instagram The Pumpkin Lineup Fans Expect

The leaked board brings back the pumpkin core in force. Alongside the returning Pumpkin Spice Signature Latte, the graphic shows a Pumpkin Cloud Dunkalatte, a Pumpkin Patch Cloud Latte, a Nutty Pumpkin Protein Latte and a Pumpkin Pie Coffee Chiller. On the food side, the long-requested Pumpkin Muffin appears to return, joined by Pumpkin Munchkins and a Pumpkin Donut. Fans in the comments were quick to celebrate the muffin's rumored comeback, with several saying they were frustrated it was missing last year.

The Surprise: A Wave of Tiramisu

The twist is tiramisu. The leaked menu leans hard into the Italian dessert flavor with four drinks: a Tiramisu Cloud Latte, a Tiramisu Protein Latte, a Tiramisu Shakin' Espresso and a Tiramisu Marshmallow. The rest of the rumored board rounds out with a Matcha Point, a Melon Deuce Energy and a Harvest Spiced Chai, plus Berry Daydream and Berry Clementine Refreshers and savory options like Maple Sugar Bacon and Chipotle Hash Browns.

If the leak holds, the chain behind this summer's viral Kylie Jenner collab would kick off fall on Aug. 19. Until Dunkin' says so, keep the sugar expectations in check.

Spicy Chick-fil-A Chick-n-Strips are back—sort of.

According to a new update from the fast food giant, the spicy strips are being brought back to two locations in Georgia from July 20 through September 12. The menu item was previously available in a variety of test markets, but were officially removed from the eatery's offerings in 2023.

While it's not entirely clear why the spicy strips were no longer offered, there have been reports that the item caused some issues in the kitchen, mainly because there needed to be a separate fryer and allocated freezer space. Other issues could have stemmed from keeping the spicy items separate from the regular strips as to not cross contaminate.

Over the past several years, Chick-fil-A has offered its spicy chicken sandwich, which is a favorite amongst diners.

It's unclear how far Chick-fil-A plans to push their testing market of the item—or if the company would re-test its spicy nuggets—but fans are already getting excited for the possibility that the spicy offerings might be making some sort of official return.

"I miss them so much," one social media user commented on an Instagram post by @Snackolator, an account that follows all kinds of new snacks and foods.

"Forget testing!!! Bring then everywhere," another fan of the spicy Chick-n-Strips wrote.

Chick-fil-A first started testing Spicy Chick-n-Strips in Philadelphia and in Texas in 2017 and then offered them in other locations, according to Mashed.

"Our Spicy Chick-n-Strips™ are a bold new twist on our classic Chick-fil-A Chick-n-Strips®. Made from the most tender part of the chicken breast, our Spicy Chick-n-Strips are seasoned with a spicy blend of peppers, freshly breaded and cooked to perfection in 100% refined peanut oil. Available with your choice of dipping sauce," reads a description of the item on Chick-fil-A's official website.

Are you looking forward to Chick-fil-A possibly bringing Spicy Chick-fil-A Chick-n-Strips back? Are there any other menu items you'd like to see return?

A legal dispute has emerged between Malcolm-Jamal Warner's widow, Tenisha Warner, and his mother, Pamela Warner.

In a lawsuit filed in DeKalb County Superior Court in Georgia on Monday, July 20 — the first anniversary of The Cosby Show alum's tragic death — Tenisha claims that she is owed $1.2 million in unpaid debts connected to the late actor's family trust.

According to documents obtained by The Atlanta Journal-Constitution and TMZ, the late actor signed a premarital agreement in May 2022. She alleges that Malcolm, best known for playing Theo Huxtable on the beloved '80s family sitcom, agreed to secure a $1 million life insurance policy naming her as the sole beneficiary, but claims he failed to obtain the policy.

According to additional documents filed in Los Angeles County last week, obtained by PEOPLE, Tenisha claims she is owed a total of $1,276,042.46, including $1 million in life insurance obligations, $50,542.46 for an anniversary payment obligation laid out in their agreement, $30,500 for a Roth IRA obligation, and $195,000 in salary Tenisha claims she's owed for working as her late husband's "chief of staff."

As for why Tenisha is suing her former mother-in-law, according to The Atlanta Journal-Constitution, she believes Malcolm's estate does not have enough assets to cover the alleged debt. The actor, who died at 54 last year after an accidental drowning while vacationing in Costa Rica, established The Warner Family Trust in 1996, which is now managed by Pamela, and Tenisha is asking the court to allow her to recover the money from the trust.

In addition to the alleged unpaid debts, Tenisha is requesting interest, legal fees, and an order that would stop Pamela from transferring or distributing trust assets until the case is resolved.

Sharing a statement with PEOPLEfollowing the filing, Tenisha said after attempting to handle matters privately, she had "no choice" but to pursue legal action to settle Malcolm's estate.

"For the last year, I have attempted to privately settle my beloved husband's complicated estate and honor his last wishes," Tenisha told the outlet. "Malcolm had every intention to provide for our 9-year-old daughter and me. He was close to finalizing a new estate plan to replace the stale plan created in 1996 when he was 26 years old, 20 years before we met and well before we gave birth to our beautiful daughter."

While Tenisha noted that the plans were nearly solidified to include both her and their daughter, she said Malcolm was ultimately "unable" update his estate "before we lost him."

"I have been struggling to care for our daughter as a single mom and now as her sole provider," she continued. "Legally, I had no choice but to take action to protect our rights before any potential statute of limitations expired. We thank you for your support, love and understanding as we work through this painful process while honoring Malcolm's life on the first anniversary of his death."

Some songs are identifiable from the very first note, and The Zombies' "Time of the Season" is one of them. That bubbling bassline, that cool vocal sigh, and those smooth lyrics were basically a recipe for a guaranteed hit. In actuality, that wasn't realized until well after the song came out—and the track initially did the exact opposite, sinking the band upon its initial release.

The Zombies had seen commercial success in the early '60s; their biggest early hit came in 1964 with "She's Not There," which reached No. 2 on the Billboard Hot 100. The following year, they got "Tell Her No" to No. 6, while "I Want You Back Again" and "She's Coming Home" came in at No. 95 and No. 58, respectively. Their experimental nature led them to embrace the psychedelic sound of the decade, but their initial venture into the new genre proved extremely disheartening.

According to American Songwriter, keyboardist Rod Argent claimed in Claes Johansen’s book The Zombies: Hung Up on a Dream that vocalist Colin Blunstone had "become very disillusioned with the fact that things weren’t happening anywhere, and I think he just got fed up with everything. Paul Atkinson felt the same, too. Chris [White, bassist] and I wouldn’t break the band up. But we felt we couldn’t carry on without Colin." By the winter of 1967, the band hung it up for good, but not before recording their now-iconic album Odessey and Oracle.

The album was, for all intents and purposes, a dud upon arrival. It went virtually nowhere when it was released in the U.S., and frustrated with the lack of momentum, the band decided to officially disband. However, Far Out Magazinereported that musician Al Kooper convinced Columbia Records to give "Time of the Season" a proper push. At first, it went nowhere, but by early 1969, the groovy tune peaked at No. 3 on the Billboard Hot 100.

“‘Time of the Season’ was the last thing to be written [for the album],” Argent told The Guardian in 2008. “I remember thinking it sounded very commercial. One of my favourite records was George Gershwin’s ‘Summertime;’ we used to do a version of it when we started out. The words in the verse – ‘What’s your name? Who’s your daddy? Is he rich like me?’ – were an affectionate nod in that direction.”

The song itself lives on as a timeless classic, featured in countless movies and television shows to instantly encapsulate the spirit of the late '60s.

One of Journey's signature songs almost had a very different legacy.

Released in 1978 on the band's Infinity album, "Wheel in the Sky" marked Journey's first appearance on the Billboard Hot 100 and helped launch the commercial breakthrough that would eventually produce classics like "Lights," "Lovin', Touchin', Squeezin'" and "Don't Stop Believin'." But before Steve Perry ever stepped behind the microphone to record the song, another singer had already helped shape it.

That singer was Robert Fleischman, who briefly fronted Journey in 1977 between founding vocalist Gregg Rolie and Perry. Although his tenure lasted only a few months, Fleischman co-wrote "Wheel in the Sky" before leaving the band under difficult circumstances.

Speaking to Classic Rock in a 2012 interview recently republished online, Fleischman recalled that guitarist Neal Schon already had the music when he joined the writing process.

"Neal and the band had the music already; I came up with the melody," Fleischman said. "One day I was given a poem that was written by Ross Valory's wife, Diane. So to make everyone happy I plucked out the line 'wheel in the sky' and then I wrote the rest."

Despite helping create the song, Fleischman never got to record the version that made Journey famous. He later said he believed manager Herbie Herbert had pushed him out of the band.

"Like any relationship you want out of, it's always a personality difference that's the excuse," Fleischman said. "I heard later the band was mad at him for squeezing me out."

Herbert later offered his own perspective, saying Fleischman was "very difficult to manage" and that once he heard Steve Perry's demo, he knew he had found the voice Journey needed.

Perry inherited "Wheel in the Sky" after joining Journey, but he didn't simply imitate what had come before.

"They already had 'Wheel In The Sky' in the bag," Perry recalled in a separate Classic Rock interview. "The way they had done it with Robert was different from how I was going to interpret it."

Related: Steve Perry Breaks Silence on a Possible Journey Reunion

The gamble paid off. Released as the lead single from Infinity, "Wheel in the Sky" became Journey's first Billboard Hot 100 hit, peaking at No. 57 and opening the door for the band's commercial breakthrough.

For Perry, one memory from that era has never faded.

"I remember clearly 'Wheel In The Sky' being the first single," he said. "Neal and I went to this pizza place, and I went over to the jukebox and saw a 'Wheel In The Sky' vinyl 45 in the machine. An ecstatic feeling."

He added that after dropping two quarters into the jukebox and hearing the song begin to play, guitarist Schon started laughing.

"It was a monumental moment," Perry said. "Back then if you were started to show up in jukeboxes it was a sign that you might be finally starting to happen."

Although "Wheel in the Sky" is Fleischman's best-known contribution to Journey, it wasn't his only one. Fleischman also received co-writing credits on "Anytime" and "Winds of March," both of which appeared on Infinity after his departure. His voice can also be heard on the band's 1992 compilation album Time. The previously unreleased song "For You" is included on the 3-disc box set and features Fleischman as the lead singer, making him a small but enduring part of one of Journey's most important records.

Today, "Wheel in the Sky" remains one of Journey's defining songs, but its history also serves as a reminder that one of the band's most important early hits was shaped by a singer who never got to enjoy its success from center stage.

Nobody has carved out as specific a niche in the music world as Dave Matthews, who shot onto the '90s music scene with his unique sound with Dave Matthews Band. The music of the group combines so many different sounds, styles, and perspectives of the musical world to create a body of work not quite like anything else. Possibly the best way to experience Dave Matthews is his live work, which is where you get to see a lot of his personality too.

These shows in the past have often featured Matthews sharing his politics. He's never shied away from making a statement on stage, using his platform to showcase his beliefs. Many fans are accustomed to this, while others haven't seen Matthews live and don't know to expect this.

This has caused a bit of division with fans online, who have split over a recent statement made by Matthews at one of his concerts directed at Donald Trump.

"I said it last night, but I'll say it again. Man, I'm so tired of this f****** president," Matthews said, to a huge applause from the crowd in attendance. This is on brand for Matthews, who has made his dislike of Trump very clear over the years.

The statement still divided fans, with some being upset at the singer's views as well as other who celebrated and empathized with the statement. Taking to the comments they reacted to what Matthews said.

"Yes David, we are too!"

"I absolutely hate when artist do this at concerts regardless of who or what they are for or against."

"Some of these comments, man… imagine choosing Trump over being a DMB fan 😂🫣 how embarrassing."

Like many fans in the comments pointed out, this is who Matthews is. He has always been a very authentic musician who hasn't hid from being himself.

Nancy Guthrie is still missing—but the FBI was able to recover video footage from her front stoop that became a key piece of evidence early in the investigation.

When Guthrie, 84, first disappeared on Feb. 1, the Pima County Sheriff's Department was leading the investigation. The FBI was brought into the case after the investigation was already underway, and that delay may have come at a cost, according to FBI Director Kash Patel.

Patel says that agents worked with Google to recover cached video from Guthrie's Nest doorbell after discovering that she did not have a cloud storage subscription and that the physical camera itself was missing. The footage they recovered had never been intended for long-term storage and was on the verge of being automatically deleted.

A screen grab from a video shows an armed individual appearing with camera at Nancy Guthrie's front door the morning of her disappearance in Arizona, United States on February 12, 2026.

Patel told Fox News Digital that while investigators were ultimately able to retrieve the video from Guthrie's front stoop, any additional footage that may have existed could have been lost before the FBI got involved. Whether that unrecovered video contained evidence relevant to the investigation remains unknown.

"We were looking for the needle of all needles in all haystacks, because since she didn't pay for [the subscription], they didn't record that data," Patel said. "But there was a chance that it was located in their cache just before it was being deleted."

The footage obtained showed an individual wearing a balaclava and carrying a backpack. The person also had a gun holstered on the front of his pants. The images and videos have been analyzed, but authorities have not publicly identified the individual.

"What we do know is that the longer you wait, there's no chance of recovering the video," Morgan Wright, the CEO and founder of the National Center for Open and Unsolved Cases, told Fox News Digital. "The earlier you get started, the better your chances. Waiting four days may have been fatal to the recovery of some video that could have been more illuminating."

There haven't been many major updates in the Guthrie case in recent weeks. Earlier this month, questions surfaced about the legitimacy of ransom notes sent to news organizations after Guthrie disappeared. However, the authenticity of those messages remains unclear.

Anyone with information about the Guthrie case is asked to call Tucson’s 88-Crime hotline at 1-520-882-7463 or the FBI at 1-800-CALL-FBI.

Paul Anthony Kelly skyrocketed to fame playing John F. Kennedy Jr. in Hulu's hit miniseries Love Story. But the actor is almost unrecognizable thanks to his new hair transformation on the set of his latest project.

Kelly, 37, was picked from relative obscurity to play the coveted role of JFK Jr. in the Hulu series, which chronicled his romance with Carolyn Bessette and their tragic death. The series, which starred Sarah Pidgeon as Bessette, was a runaway hit for the streaming network, and Kelly is already at work on his next project. Currently starring in Ryan Murphy's upcoming project, American Horror Story: Penthouse, Kelly was spotted on the set alongside Sarah Paulson. However, it was Kelly's dramatic hair transformation that captured the eyes of onlookers. Sporting platinum blonde hair with a leather trench coat in Washington Square Park, Manhattan, Kelly is almost unrecognizable thanks to his hair switch-up.

What Has Daryl Hannah Said About Love Story?

While Love Story earned plenty of acclaim and even a few Emmy nominations, not everyone loved it. Daryl Hannah, whose doomed romance with Kennedy Jr. is depicted in the series, spoke out in an essay for the New York Times that condemns the nine-part series created by Ryan Murphy and her depiction in it.

“The character ‘Daryl Hannah’ portrayed in the series is not even a remotely accurate representation of my life, my conduct or my relationship with John. The actions and behaviors attributed to me are untrue.”

Hannah continued by saying, “I have long believed that engaging with distortion often amplifies it. But a recent tragedy-exploiting television series about John F. Kennedy Jr. and Carolyn Bessette features a character using my name and presents her as me. The choice to present her as irritating, self-absorbed, whiny and inappropriate was no accident.”

She also condemned several details as being untrue, including a scene where Hannah is hosting a party where cocaine is used on top of a Kennedy heirloom.

“I have never used cocaine in my life or hosted cocaine-fueled parties,” she shared. “I have never pressured anyone into marriage. I have never desecrated any family heirloom or intruded upon anyone’s private memorial.”

"Give me your higher love" — or at the very least, how about some memorabilia?

Whitney Houston's legacy continues to be celebrated though her charitable foundation, which is holding an official auction next month with help from Julien's.

The famed pop-culture auction house took to social media on Tuesday, July 21 to promote its upcoming sale, set to take place in Los Angeles on Tuesday, August 11 at 10 a.m. PST (1 p.m. EST).

"100% of auction proceeds will directly benefit The Whitney E. Houston Legacy Foundation, furthering Houston’s mission to rebuild lives, restore self-esteem, and empower communities through impactful grassroots programs and services," reads the caption of Julien's recent Instagram post, in part. See below.

“This is our second year with Julien’s Auctions and their global reach has been fantastic,” Pat Houston, president of the Whitney E. Houston Legacy Foundation and the executor of The Estate of Whitney E. Houston, said in a statement. “This year, we have some super great one-of-a-kind memorabilia from Whitney’s archives and we are excited about the auction.”

• an RIAA-certified 9x Platinum award presented to Houston in recognition of the more than 9 million copies sold of her 1987 single, “I Wanna Dance with Somebody (Who Loves Me),” which earned her the 1988 Grammy Award for Best Female Pop Vocal Performance
• a gold-plated Social Security card issued to Houston, engraved with her name, “Whitney E. Houston”
• a Bob Mackie–designed embellished jacket

One of the most decorated novelists in America just wrote an ending.

Colson Whitehead's Cool Machine arrives Tuesday, July 21, from Doubleday, closing the acclaimed Harlem Trilogy he launched in 2021. He unpacked the finale in a new interview with NPR.

🎬 SIGN UP for Parade's Daily newsletter to get the latest pop culture news & celebrity interviews delivered right to your inbox 🎬

Whitehead is one of the most celebrated novelists working today, a two-time Pulitzer Prize winner for The Underground Railroad and The Nickel Boys. The latter became a 2024 film that earned a Best Picture nomination. He has hopscotched genres across his career, from that runaway-slave epic to this hard-boiled crime series, and now he returns one last time to Ray Carney.

The End of the Ray Carney Story

Set in 1980s New York, Cool Machine follows Carney, a Harlem furniture dealer who moonlights as a fence, as he gambles on one last big job and falls into the orbit of a legendary criminal mastermind. All the while, he tries to keep his cousin's son out of the city's worst corners.

Each book in the trilogy jumped a decade: Harlem Shuffle opened in the 1960s, Crook Manifesto moved into the 1970s, and the finale lands in a grittier, gentrifying 1980s of real-estate greed and rising crime.

Two Pulitzers and a Fitting Finale

Whitehead is one of only four writers ever to win the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction twice, the only one to do it with back-to-back novels. Early reviews have been glowing: one critic called Cool Machine a fitting finale "sure to make it a classic of New York fiction." It lands as one of the month's biggest releases.

Cool Machine is out now in hardcover from Doubleday. For readers who came in with Harlem Shuffle in 2021, the ending has been nearly five years coming.

What is the new twist for Season 21 of America’s Got Talent?

This summer AGT introduces a new twist: the Judges Callbacks round, which will give select Acts a second chance to make the Live Shows.

It will take place after the auditions are complete and 10 of the spots on the Live Shows will have been awarded to the 10 Golden Buzzers. So, before the judges fill the remaining spots, there will be a select group of acts that the judges will want to revisit before making their final choices.

“One question I get asked a lot is, ‘How do you decide who makes it through to the live shows?’” Simon told TV Insider. “We’ve been trying to be more transparent year after year, and then we said, “Let’s just show the audience how we get to that place.

“You have your Golden Buzzers, and there are about 44 spots [for the live shows]. When you watch the tapes back, there’s about, say, 20 acts, which I call the no-brainers. Then we have the maybes — these are acts who we think have got potential, and in an ideal world, you’d want to see again. So, effectively, that’s what we’ve done. Each judge has chosen a number of acts they want to see. I think I’m seeing six. And then I might put all of mine through, or I might put one through. Whoever we feel has done enough to merit being in the live show.”

What is the prize on America’s Got Talent?

The winner of Season 21 will walk away with $1 million.

What does the Golden Buzzer mean on America’s Got Talent?

We all love those emotional Golden Buzzer moments when one of the judges or host Terry Crews is so moved by a performance that they press the Golden Buzzer, confetti streams down, and that act is sent directly to the Live shows. The awarding of the Golden Buzzer by the judges and Terry takes place during the initial audition period.

We have gotten so used to the Golden Buzzer, we forget that it wasn’t initially a part of AGT. In fact, it wasn’t introduced until season 10. But it has proven how good a judge of talent our judges and host are. Eight out of the 11 AGT winners since its introduction—Paul Zerdin, Grace VanderWaal, Darci Lynne, Kodi Lee, Brandon Leake, The Mayyas, Richard Goodall and Jessica Sanchez —were Golden Buzzers. The exceptions are Shin Lim, Dustin Tavella and Adrian Stoica & Hurricane.

The winner was 30-year-old Jessica Sanchez from Houston, Texas, who returned to the show for Season 20 after having competed in the first season when she was a child. On Season 1 in 2012, Jessica finished runner-up.

“It’s just so overwhelming,” Jessica told Parade on the red carpet after her win. “Not only is this amazing moment happening, but I’m really close in my pregnancy of becoming a mother.”

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.

Ryan’s time as Jeopardy! Champ was short-lived, as Biermann ended DJ with a commanding runaway lead, with $30,000 to Ryan’s $8,600 and Sisk’s $7,400.

While all 3 contestants answered FJ correctly, Biermann took the lead, adding $2,000 to her final total of $32,000. Ryan wagered $6,201 for a second-place total of $14,801, while Sisk added $1,300 to his total for a third-place final of $8,700.

In 1960, birth control was introduced into healthcare, and women's reproductive care was forever changed. Some years later, country superstar Loretta Lynn co-wrote a satirical, comedic song that mirrored facts from her actual life about this topic. This song, which would go on to be the most well-known of her career, was the 1975 hit "The Pill."

"The Pill" is a storytelling-type song that follows a wife who is fed up with how often her husband has been getting her pregnant over the years. With the introduction of birth control into her life, she's now much happier because she can control this aspect of her life. In the song, Lynn sings:

"This incubator is over-used because you've kept it filled
But feeling good comes easy now since I've got the pill
It's getting dark, it's roosting time, tonight's too good to be real
Aw, but Daddy don't you worry none 'cause Mama's got the pill
Oh, Daddy don't you worry none 'cause Mama's got the pill"

Because of the song's blunt discussion of birth control — something that was seen as provocative in 1975 — many country music radio stations refused to play it. The ban from numerous radio stations stalled the song on the charts, repressing its peak at No. 5 during a time when typically songs by Lynn were guaranteed to be in the top three.

Still, because of all of the press surrounding the song, it became far more known outside of Lynn's typical country market. "The Pill" became Lynn's highest-charting single on the pop charts, hitting No. 70 in the States and eventually going No. 1 in Canada.

Speaking to Playboy magazine, Lynn recounted that many doctors in rural counties thanked her for the song as it made more women aware of birth control's availability to them. This type of more liberal, feminist stance was a rarity for Lynn, who typically tried to remain politically neutral in her work.

"The Pill" was a defining moment for women, women's rights, and Loretta Lynn as an artist in 1975.
