If you've ever walked out of the salon with rich, cool, perfectly toned brown hair and then watched it slowly shift toward a warm, reddish-orange over the following weeks, you already understand the problem blue shampoo exists to solve. This has long-been my personal nightmare—I think I look amazing, but I’m leaning into Ronald McDonald territory. No disrespect to the clown, but it’s not a cute look on me.

Unfortunately, brassiness is just what brown hair does sometimes. Color fades, underlying warm pigments emerge and what was once a cool, dimensional brunette starts looking a little more Halloween-adjacent. The frustrating part is that most people either don't know blue shampoo exists or assume purple shampoo does the same job. It doesn't.

Whether your brown hair is natural, color-treated, highlighted or balayaged, brassiness is coming for it—and the right blue shampoo, used correctly, is the most practical thing you can do between salon visits.

To find the 12 best formulas across every brunette concern—including the "best overall" bottle that gained popularity in the 1990s and has remained a staple in the beauty industry—we talked to Kerry Yates, trichologist and founder of Colour Collective; Louise Bailey, founder of Beauty Club London, a specialist salon dedicated to hair extensions, hair loss and thinning; and Stanley Nolan, hair expert and cosmetologist and beauty education specialist at Ogle School Stafford. Here's what they'd put in your shower.

What Is Blue Shampoo—and How Does It Work?

Think of blue shampoo as the "brunette version" of purple shampoo. As Bailey explains, "Blue shampoo is designed to neutralize unwanted orange and copper tones that naturally develop in brunette hair over time. The blue pigment sits opposite orange on the color wheel, so it helps counteract those warmer tones, leaving brown hair looking cooler, richer and glossier."

It doesn't permanently recolor anything—it refreshes tone between salon visits.

Nolan adds that it works "by coating the hair shaft and acting as an instant toner."

Who should use blue shampoo?

Anyone with brunette hair who has noticed warmth, brassiness or an orange cast developing should use this type of shampoo, as Nolan explains, "Blue shampoo should be used by brunettes since the colors oppose each other on the color wheel."

Bailey recommends it for color-treated, highlighted and balayaged brunettes specifically, though natural brunettes dealing with sun-induced warmth benefit too.

How often should you use blue shampoo?

Once a week is the consistent recommendation across all three experts, and less is almost always better than more.

"One of the biggest mistakes I see is people using it every wash because they think more is better,” says Bailey. "In reality, too much toning can leave brunette hair looking flat." Nolan agrees, adding that daily use "can leave your hair with a blue tint."

How To Use Blue Shampoo for Best Results

Don't apply it straight from the bottle. "First evacuate into your hand, dilute with water, create a lather then apply starting at the roots and then massage to the ends,” says Yates. “Leave the ends for the very last as this area is usually more porous and can grab color.”

Nolan recommends leaving it on for three to five minutes before rinsing and always following with a hydrating conditioner or mask. Bailey agrees on the conditioner step. "Healthy, hydrated hair will always make your color look more vibrant," she says.

Blue Shampoo vs. Purple Shampoo: What's the Difference?

They target completely different problems. Bailey puts it plainly: "Purple shampoo neutralizes yellow tones, making it ideal for blondes, platinum and silver hair, whereas blue shampoo targets orange and copper undertones, which brunettes are far more likely to experience."

Nolan confirms the color wheel logic. Purple and yellow oppose each other; blue and orange oppose each other. Using the wrong one won't damage your hair, but it won't do anything useful either.

Can Blue Shampoo Damage Your Hair?

Not inherently. Yates is clear that the non-oxidative dyes aren't damaging the way bleach or permanent color is. The concern is pigment grab on porous ends. "Blue shampoo dyes can be a bit more 'positive,' so the color can grab especially on super porous ends or sections of the hair," she tells Parade.

Nolan adds that leaving it on longer than the recommended three to five minutes can result in dry and dull hair with daily use. Bailey's concern is overuse on already-fragile hair. So, for anyone dealing with hair loss, extensions or chemical processing, a hydrating formula and careful timing matter more than for someone with healthy virgin hair.

Here are the bottles that these hair professionals recommend the most.

Best Overall: Aveda Blue Malva Shampoo, $75

Yates calls this "the original" and still the benchmark. "Aveda was the first one to come out with a blue shampoo," she tells Parade, and the formula holds up—the pigment level is calibrated well enough that you get cool-tone correction without the grayish cast on the ends that heavier formulas can leave behind.

Nolan likes the organic botanicals including ylang ylang, lemon and eucalyptus that make it "a gentler long-term option." It's no wonder this bottle has become a cult-favorite over the last three decades.

Best for Color-Treated Brown Hair: dpHUE Cool Brunette Shampoo, $28

Yates and Nolan both picked this product independently. Yates loves the balance of pigment and gentle detergents. "Hair that has been color treated feels like it has been properly cared for vs. feeling squeaky clean," she says.

Nolan adds that it's "color safe, paraben free, SLS and SLES sulfate free, with silk proteins and hibiscus extract to increase brightness and prevent breakage." 

Best for Balayage: Oligo Blacklight Blue Shampoo, $27

Amazon

Nolan's balayage pick earns its place by working across blonde, brunette and highlighted hair simultaneously—which is exactly the challenge balayage creates.

The formula "consists of squalane, moringa oil, açai extract and argan oil," he explains, refreshing faded highlights while nourishing and protecting the hair. For color that lives in multiple tonal territories at once, a formula that handles all of them is the practical choice.

Best for Natural Brunettes: Semi Di Lino Anti-Orange Shampoo, $26

Amazon

Yates loves this collection for the smooth, polished feeling it leaves on the hair. "The Semi Di Lino collection is formulated to deliver the perfect smooth feeling on the hair—a great sulfate-free formula that still delivers a great lather," she says.

For natural brunettes who haven't processed their hair and want something gentle enough for consistent use, the sulfate-free formula corrects brassiness without stripping the hair's natural balance.

Best Affordable: Matrix Brass Off Shampoo, $22

Yates recommends this as the best value option while being direct about where extra care is needed. "The price is right for this formula. The pigment mix can be a bit heavy, so follow directions and be very light when applying on any areas that are porous," she advises.

You're able to get real toning results without spending more—it just requires a slightly more cautious application.

Best Luxury: Davines HEART OF GLASS Silkening Chelating Shampoo, $44

Sephora

Shop It at Sephora

Nolan's luxury pick adds something most toning shampoos skip entirely: chelating action. This says it's for blondes, but the Jagua blue extract handles toning while the formula removes hard water buildup and mineral residue that dulls color and accelerates brassiness.

"It provides deep nourishment, lasting moisture and removes build-up and hard water residue," he says. For anyone in a hard water area watching their color go brassy faster than expected, this addresses the actual cause rather than just the symptom.

Best for Dry Hair: Pureology Color Fanatic Top Coat + Tone Hair Gloss, $32

Amazon

Nolan reaches for this when dryness is the primary concern alongside brassiness. "It neutralizes brassy, yellow or orange tones, and revives warm shades while restoring vibrancy, shine and softness by using oat milk and camellia oil," he explains. The gloss format delivers toning without the cleansing agents that can strip already-dry hair.

Best Sulfate-Free: Fanola Wonder Blue Shampoo, $29

Amazon

Shop It on Amazon

Nolan's sulfate-free pick uses Algapur—an omega-9 rich microalgae oil—for nourishment alongside guar gum to smooth the hair cuticle. Vegan, sulfate-free and delivering real toning without the drying effect that other sulfate-free formulas can somehow still cause.

For color-treated brunette hair that needs consistent toning and gentle cleansing, this is the formula that doesn't force a trade-off.

Best for Fine Hair: Milk_Shake Cool Brunette Shampoo, $28

Amazon

Shop It on Amazon

Yates is enthusiastic about this one, explaining, "The lather on this shampoo is just lush. I love the feel while washing the hair and rinses away without that squeaky clean feeling." The pigment blend does real work on brassiness while the formula stays light enough not to drag fine hair down.

Best for Thick Hair: Joico Color Balancing Shampoo, $25

Amazon

Shop It on Amazon

Both Yates and Nolan recommend Joico, for slightly different reasons. Yates loves the robust emollient blend that keeps thick hair manageable and supple while correcting brass. "They have a more robust blend of emollients which can help control thick hair to ensure it retains its manageability and suppleness," she says.

Nolan points to the green tea extract, UV absorbers and smart release technology that "continuously releases Rosehip Oil, Arginine, and Keratin to help repair, strengthen and protect hair." 

Best for Gray Coverage: Virtue Color Kick Debrassing Shampoo, $46

Amazon

Yates says that standard blue shampoo isn't exactly right for gray hair—the dye blend and pigment concentration are calibrated for brunettes, not for the yellow-gray correction that silver hair needs.

This formula uses "a slightly different dye blend and lighter pigment," she explains, making it a more appropriate choice for anyone managing gray or transitioning to silver. Oribe Silverati is her other recommendation for this concern, and it's worth noting both in any gray hair routine.

Best for Color-Treated Extensions: Kérastase Chroma Absolu Bain Bleu Anti-Brass Shampoo, $46

Amazon

Shop It on Amazon

This is Bailey's pick at Beauty Club London, where she works daily with clients whose hair needs extra care. "It tones down unwanted orange and copper tones without stripping the hair. It also contains caring ingredients that leave the hair feeling softer and healthier—which is especially important for clients with extensions or hair that's already a little dry," she explains.

For fragile, compromised or extended hair, a formula that tones and treats simultaneously is a great way to go.

Post-hardcore band Chiodos has surprised fans with its explosive return to music.

The beloved Michigan rockers released "TAPDAT," its first piece of new music since 2014's Devil, which marked the band's fourth and final album before its decade-long hiatus.

"TAPDAT" was produced by Keith Sorrells and captures everything that longtime fans know and love about the band, while propelling them forward into a new era.

"There is still so much work to be done to build out the world of Chiodos. TAPDAT is the first step in that direction," frontman Craig Owens said in a statement. "Its return to our ethos is what drew me back to creating with this band, and you can feel it throughout every minute of the song. An unapologetic, experimental ride that pulls you in every step of the way. As for the future of Chiodos, I'm surrounded by incredible talent. We are stronger, more focused than ever and eager to continue the story I've been waiting 12 years to tell."

In tandem with the release, the band also dropped a "TAPDAT" official music video, with fans sharing their excitement for the new single.

"That's a great comeback song!!!" one person wrote, "I love it."

"Excuse me?? This is a hell of a surprise," commented another, "So good."

A third said, "Now that's how you do a comeback."

Kicking off later this month, the band will be hitting the road on the It's Not You, It's Me Tour, touring across North America. Starting in Denver, CO on July 30 and wrapping up in Sacramento, CA on Oct. 3, the tour will include stops at huge festivals such as Warped Tour and Louder Than Life.

Formed in 2001, Chiodos released its debut album, All's Well That Ends Well, in 2005. Its second record, Bone Palace Ballet debuted at No. 1 on the Rock chart and placed at No. 5 on the Billboard 200. After a ten-year hiatus, the band reunited in 2024 with an appearance at Las Vegas' When We Were Young festival.

There is a lot of debate around the evolution of heavy metal. Many claim the whispers of it began in the late '60s thanks to the likes of Led Zeppelin, Cream, and The Yardbirds, but often credit Black Sabbath as the grandfather of it all. The genre quickly took on a life of its own, developing with a few notable acts at the helm—one of the most revered being none other than Motörhead. The band was formed after frontman Lemmy Kilmister was booted from Hawkwind following an arrest in Canada over drug possession, according to Loudwire.

Kilmister formed Motörhead, named after a song he wrote for Hawkwind, and began building a strong underground following across the UK. They were on their third album by the time the U.S. caught on to their sound, and it was all thanks to "Ace of Spades," released Nov. 8, 1980. It would not only define the band, but also an entire subgenre of heavy metal.

The Story Behind 'Ace of Spades'

Much like all things in the music industry, the story behind the iconic song is a mix of fact and urban legend. The legendary instrumentals were what took the most work. According to Louder, "Fast" Eddie Clarke told Classic Rock in 2017 that he and Phil "Philthy Animal" Taylor were messing around and came up with a solid riff they took back to the studio. Under the guidance of producer Vic Maile, they fleshed out the sound with Kilmister, using Maile's "box of tricks" in the studio for interesting effects. However, the famed lyrics that harken to Kilmister's struggles with gambling were allegedly conceived in the back of a transit van, traveling a reported 90 mph.

“He might have written it in the [toilet] for all I know,” Clarke reportedly said. “He used to do that. We’d say: ‘Man, we need some [darn] lyrics for this.’ So he used to go for a [quick break] and write the lyrics. But if he said he wrote it in a Transit van, then you’ve got to believe him.”

Kilmister said it was the first of his "10-minute" tracks, one he tried to fill with as many gambling references as he possibly could. The song catapulted the band and made an indelible mark on the history of metal music. However, despite its solidifying success, it wasn't necessarily his favorite track.

“‘Ace of Spades’ is unbeatable, apparently, but I never knew it was such a good song,” Kilmister confessed to Mojo in 2011, according to Far Out Magazine. “Writing it was just a word exercise on gambling, all the clichés. I’m glad we got famous for that rather than for some turkey, but I sang ‘the eight of spades’ for two years and nobody noticed.”

The career-defining track would become part of every set they played until Kilmister's death in 2015.

“To be honest, although ‘Ace of Spades’ is a good song, I’m sick to death of it now. Two decades on, when people think of Motörhead, they think ‘Ace of Spades,'” he wrote in his autobiography, White Line Fever. “We didn’t become fossilized after that record, you know. We’ve had quite a few good releases since then. But the fans want to hear it, so we still play it every night. For myself, I’ve had enough of that song.”

Whether it was written in a van or on a bathroom break, the song changed the music industry as we know it, and for that, metal fans everywhere are eternally grateful.

"Beercation" may not be your next Wordle guess, but one hotel in one of America's most underrated states fits the bill perfectly.

Blending an underrated beach vacay with one of the top craft beer brands in the States, this 16-room boutique hotel was just crowned by Rolling Stone as one of the world's 'coolest' stays on Earth.

After winning the publication's "Coolest Concept" category, a trip to Delaware might suddenly deserve a spot on your travel list.

Truth be told, Delaware's largest city, Wilmington, has become one of the Northeast's trendiest getaways since commercial flights returned, reopening the airport and now anchored by Avelo Airlines.

But the state's sprawling coastline has long been the main draw, and now travelers looking for something new have another great reason to visit.

Dogfish Inn: The 'Coolest' Hotel You Didn't Know Existed

Dogfish Head might sound like a forgotten Nickelodeon cartoon, but it's a household name among beer lovers, known for its specialty brews, such as 60 Minute IPA, 90 Minute IPA, and SeaQuench Ale.

Even NBA all-star Chris Bosh once entered his name for his own ale, Bosh Blonde.

Even avid beer drinkers may not know the brand has its own hotel, nestled along the Delaware coast between Lewes and the more popular Rehoboth Beach, where Joe Biden's viral beach photos were taken during his presidency.

Rolling Stone recognized Dogfish Inn’s cozy digs as its “Coolest Concept" — largely for its beer-inspired character and laid-back coastal setting; you couldn’t ask for a better home with Delaware's top beaches so close by.

It's not just Rolling Stone editors singing the property's praises—it's guests, too.

Holding an impressive 4.9/5 Google rating, recent visitors are leaving rave reviews like "My family and I have been coming here since 2021 and it's only gotten better each time."

Another said, "The Dogfish Inn is a great place to stay! Central location in Lewes, 10 minute walk to the beach and easy access to anywhere in town."

Being undeniably beer-themed, there has to be a bar onsite, right?

Wrong. But there are plenty of other ways to tap into the experience, including:

• Free bike rentals
• Beach chairs to borrow
• Outdoor fire pit overlooking the canal
• Gear shed stocked with outdoor gear and games
• 7 dog-friendly room options
• Easy access to Cape Henlopen State Park, beaches, kayaking and hiking just minutes away

Prices vary, especially throughout the peak of summer, where rates hover around the $300 mark. October is the sweet spot.

Going to a concert usually comes with one universal rule: the closer you sit to the stage, the more you'll pay. But one legendary musician has spent the last 25 years doing things differently, refusing to sell the most coveted seats in the house.

And that icon is Billy Joel.

Joel, who recently announced a new clothing collaboration with the MLB, previously revealed that he doesn't offer front row seats to any of his shows. The reason? He doesn't want his fans buying pricey tickets from scalpers.

"About 25 years ago, I got tired of looking down...the first-row tickets are always scalper tickets—always somebody who paid way too much money to be a big shot—sit in the front row," Joel said on a 2017 episode of Jimmy Kimmel Live. He went on to say that he knows that the "real fans are in the back" of the arena. So, he has his team upgrade some of his biggest fans, many of whom are just happy to be in the building, never mind in a seat that's close enough to see the sweat on Joel's forehead.

Joel reportedly loses about $20,000 per show by doing this, according to Morning Drive with Christie Live,

In 2025, Joel was forced to cancel all of his shows after he was diagnosed with a rare neurological disorder called normal pressure hydrocephalus (NPH).

"This condition has been exacerbated by recent concert performances, leading to problems with hearing, vision, and balance," a statement released at the time read. "Under his doctor's instructions, Billy is undergoing specific physical therapy and has been advised to refrain from performing during this recovery period."

It's been more than a year since Joel has performed a full length concert and, while his health seems to be improving, he hasn't announced any plans to return to the stage. If an when he does, however, expect the first row to be filled not with the highest bidders, but with the fans who have supported him throughout his legendary career.

Toshiaki Fushimi was an Olympic gold medalist who won silver in the team sprint at the 2004 Summer Olympics in Athens. He achieved the victory alongside Tomohiro Nagatsuka and Masaki Inoue.

According to PEOPLE, Fushimi died after an incident at the Matsusaka Keirin tournament on July 18 after crashing into a barrier. He had been attempting to avoid a collision that took place ahead of him. “Fushimi sustained fractures to his cervical vertebrae (neck) and skull,” the outlet reported. He succumbed to his injuries at 10:15 AM on July 19 at the age of 50.

“It is truly heartbreaking that he lost his life in an accident during a race,” Hiroshi Kido, the chairman of the Japan Keirin Association, told The Independent. “We will reconfirm our safety measures and thoroughly ensure fair and safe races.”

The outlet also reported that Fushimi “made his professional debut in the keirin in 1995, winning 619 races, five G1 titles and the Keirin Grand Prix twice, in 2001 and 2007. He returned to racing this May after a four-year lay-off.”

View this post on Instagram

Professional cyclist Josiah Ng Onn Lam wrote a tribute to Fushimi on social media, saying, “Toshiaki Fushimi wasn’t just a competitor. He was one of the best Keirin riders Japan has ever produced. Grand Prix winner. Olympic Silver Medalist. A true professional on the track. We raced against each other for years. That kind of rivalry builds a respect that doesn’t fade. Devastated to hear he lost his life doing what he loved. My thoughts are with his family and the entire Keirin community in Japan. Rest in peace, champion."

Fans also paid their respects on Reddit, with one saying, “1 of every 4 races he won. The Eddy Merckx of Keirin and track racing. A terrible loss for track cycling.” Another said, “RIP, watched him race in Matsusaka years back, and he was already a legend then. Crashing at 50 still going all out says everything about the man.”

Fushimi was mostly known as a keirin cyclist, which is a form of motor-paced cycle racing. He had over 400 victories over his career.

No rockstar of the '70s era has become more synonymous with political work than Roger Waters, the legendary bassist and principle songwriter of Pink Floyd. Waters has been a vocal political activist for decades now, even going as far as speaking at the United Nations.

Much of Waters' career has morphed into this more activism focused approach, with him dedicating a lot of his musical and personal energy to standing for the causes he believes in. This has led him to carry his platform wherever he can, no matter how unlikely it may be.

This leads to his new interview with a very surprising host: Tucker Carlson. Waters has always found himself on the left side of the political spectrum, which is what made his meeting with the right wing media personality a bit surprising. On this show, Waters weighed in on 9/11, and about how he doesn't believe the events are what they seem to be.

View this post on Instagram

Waters is pushing the common conspiracy theory that the towers were detonated as opposed to solely destroyed by the airplanes. This is a theory that many people have latched onto over the years although there is no officially backed evidence to support that idea.

"There is no way the North and South towers and Building Seven came down because of airplanes hitting. Just not possible," Waters vehemently stated.

Fans were shocked by the statements, taking to the comments to share their offense and anger at the claims made in the video.

"It’s unbelievable how many stupid people there are. And they think they know everything."

"Well, I was there, and let me tell you, it was the planes. Roger Waters, Tucker Carlson, and Donald Trump weren’t there that day and, they’re not structural engineers. So they can tell me aliens did it for all I care because none of them knows wtf they’re talking about."

"Don’t listen to expertise from this guy on anything other than maybe music. Luckily there are ACTUAL EXPERTS IN STRUCTURAL ENGINEERING that study and analyze these things."

Roger Waters' episode with Tucker Carlson is on YouTube now.

Summer style doesn't have to be difficult. It's all about finding that perfect mix of comfort and cool. A "versatile" practical top made of a lightweight and breathable linen or cotton blend helps keep you comfortable, even when temperatures climb. Pieces thin enough to layer easily under a cardigan or denim jacket for cooler evenings are versatile wardrobe staples you'll reach for again and again.  

If you're searching for a linen-blend top that feels light on the skin but still looks pulled together, Amazon's IdealSanxun Linen Button-Down Tank checks every box. The $20 tank (down from its usual $25 price tag) has a classic button-down front and sleeveless scoop neck that creates a casual, laid-back vibe. Whether you are meeting friends at a backyard barbecue or packing for a weekend getaway, this lightweight tank has quickly become a staple for shoppers looking to stay breezy in rising temperatures.

The tank's design is simple but smart. A flattering scoop neckline, button-down front, and sleeveless cut keep it classic while lending a touch of effortless style. Reviewers called it "very cute and comfortable," with many noting that the fabric is thin enough to keep you cool on the hottest days, but not so sheer that you need to worry about extra layers. For those who love a versatile piece, this tank pairs easily with shorts, skirts, or jeans, and can also be dressed up with a cardigan or light blazer for evenings out.

What really sets this tank apart is the way it captures the spirit of "summer comfort." Reviewers have worn it for everything from European trips to casual workdays, praising its ability to keep them comfortable without sacrificing style. The button-down detail adds visual interest, while the linen blend ensures breathability and a relaxed fit. This tank offers a practical solution for so many settings if you value both form and function in your wardrobe.

The blend of 70% viscose and 30% linen gives it a soft, airy feel that moves with you and keeps you cool even on the hottest days. Its breathable fabric and versatile style make it perfect for everything from casual errands to sun-soaked vacations. Shoppers are snapping up multiple colors, knowing they have found an affordable essential that blends comfort and effortless summer chic.

The brand recommends gentle machine washing in cold water to maintain the shape and softness of the fabric. Because linen and viscose are prone to shrinking and wrinkling under high heat, a little extra attention to washing and drying goes a long way in keeping the tank looking its best all summer long.

Shoppers appreciated the range of sizes from extra-small to extra-large. Reviews stated that the top fits true to size, but you can size up for a looser fit. The array of 21 color options makes it easy to find a shade that suits every mood and occasion. "I have this top in white and one in tan,” one reviewer noted, adding that it’s comfy and cool for these hot days."

"[I] love this and want to get it in multiple colors now," another shopper stated. "The material is lightweight and breathable but not see-through. I’ve worn it so far with a skirt and linen pants, and think it’ll probably be just as cute with jeans or shorts. I bought it to go to Europe and need to make it versatile with different outfits."

Some Aldi Finds disappear almost as quickly as they arrive, turning an ordinary grocery run into a treasure hunt. Whether it's seasonal home decor, kitchen gadgets or cookware, shoppers know that waiting even a few days can mean missing out entirely.

That's happening right now with one of Aldi's most anticipated kitchen returns. The popular item has made its way back to stores, but shoppers are already sharing stories of empty shelves and celebrating when they manage to snag one before it's gone.

Crofton Cast-Iron Bread Oven What is your all time favorite song and why?
by in AskReddit

Aldi has brought back its Crofton Cast Iron Bread Oven as part of its weekly Aldi Finds lineup, and shoppers are especially eager to get their hands on the pastel teal colorway.

The 6-quart enameled cast iron bread oven sells for $29.99, making it a much more affordable alternative to similar premium bread ovens. Designed with a flat base and a high-domed lid, it's made specifically for baking artisan loaves. It also features a stainless steel knob and comes in two colors: pastel teal and cream white.

Unlike Aldi's everyday products, Aldi Finds are available for a limited time while supplies last, and this one is already proving to be a hot commodity. The bread oven is currently sold out online, leaving many shoppers hoping they'll still find one in stores.

The Teal Colorway Has Shoppers Hooked

While both colors have attracted attention, the pastel teal version has become the standout favorite among shoppers.

On Reddit, one Aldi shopper shared that they almost missed out on buying one altogether.
"I didn't have a chance to go to my local store when these came out, so I thought I wouldn't get one," the shopper said. But they managed to get the last one at the store. "Baked a loaf of sourdough this morning and am really pleased with the result. $29.99 well spent!"

The Crofton bread oven offers the same elegant look that has made premium bread ovens so popular, but at a fraction of the price. While it's designed specifically for baking bread rather than replacing a traditional Dutch oven, many home bakers appreciate its domed shape for helping create bakery-style loaves at home.

If you're hoping to add one to your kitchen, you may not want to wait too long. Since it's an Aldi Find, it won't stay on shelves indefinitely, and with online inventory already gone and shoppers reporting they're grabbing the last ones in stores, this kitchen favorite could disappear again just as quickly as it returned.

Some beloved rock songs are complicated creations made during bold collaborations with different artists and musicians. Other times, one songwriter experiences a burst of inspiration that quickly shapes up to be a masterpiece.

For one of the rock band Kansas' first-ever acoustic songs, "Dust in the Wind," guitarist and songwriter Kerry Livgren's casual guitar technique practice at home led to one of the best ballads in rock music.

Livgren has told the story many times, noting how it all started while he was practicing acoustic fingerpicking at home. His wife, Vicci, heard the pattern of notes he was playing and told him it would make a great song.

While he first told her, "Nah, it’s just an exercise," her words clearly stuck with him. And after he thought of a phrase he had read in American Indian poetry around that time, "All we are is dust in the wind," inspiration sparked.

"It really struck me and stuck with me. I was humming that line along with this fingerpicking exercise, and 15 minutes later I had a song," said Livgren in an interview with Guitar World. "When I played it for the band, there was stunned silence."

The guitarist concluded, "Sometimes the things that happen out of a simple inspiration are far more enduring than something you might labor over endlessly.”

Kansas drummer Phil Ehart said the other band members knew "Dust in the Wind" was a hit upon first listen. He told Louder in an interview, "We listened to it and all of us were just blown away... The melody was so beautiful."

The track was first released on the band's 1977 album Point of Know Return, before coming out as an official single the next year. It peaked at No. 6 on the Billboard Hot 100 in early 1978, and it is the band's only song to break into the Top 10 in the U.S. The song has been certified 3x Platinum thanks to its huge success.

Almost 50 years later, "Dust in the Wind" isn't just one of Kansas' best songs and a huge part of the band's legacy. It's also a classic for all fans of rock music.

On Dutton Ranch, the iconic Ed Harris plays Everett McKinney, a local veterinarian and Vietnam War Navy Vet. When speaking about the role with Variety, the star admitted that he felt “misled” about how important his character would be on the Yellowstone spinoff. He revealed that halfway through filming the series, he told his team to “get me the f--- out of here.”

“Prior to signing on for it, I was talked to quite a bit about what the season was, and what my character was going to do — and that I was one of the four main characters,” Harris said. “And that wasn’t really the case.”

He continued, “I said, ‘I’m feeling underused and inconsequential,’ and they kind of went, ‘Oh.’ I’m being told my character will have a little bit more to do [in Season 2]. I was just a little frustrated, to tell you the truth.”

Harris also expressed frustration about a scene of his character singing in a bar being left out of the show, which “really pissed him off.”

“So there’s this scene in there … I’m talking to [Beth Dutton] at the bar, and [Rip Wheeler] comes in and says, ‘OK, Everett, come on, it’s your turn,'” Harris said. “I walk up to the mic, and they cut it. They cut the song out. I’m going, ‘F--- you, people.'”

However, Harris admitted that when he watched the show, he thought it was “pretty good” and his character was “relatively important to the story,” although it “didn’t feel that way” during filming.

Dutton Ranch’s first season, which consists of nine episodes, is now streaming on Paramount+. It has already been renewed for season two, which should be coming sometime in 2027.

Yellowstone, meanwhile, is available to watch on Peacock. It has five seasons, consisting of 53 episodes. The series resulted in a Golden Globe Award for Kevin Costner in 2023, as well as nominations for Screen Actors Guild Awards and Primetime Creative Arts Emmy Awards.

When it comes to horror novels, Grady Hendrix is one of the best. He’s a master storyteller, whether it’s about witches, vampires, or even Final Girls.

July 21 is International Witch's Day, and it’s right in the middle of Summerween, so you know what that means! It’s time to grab all your favorite witchy books, and Witchcraft for Wayward Girls has to be on the list.

The most recent of all his popular horror novels, Witchcraft for Wayward Girls was originally published on Jan. 14, 2025. Earlier this year, it was released in paperback, and by then, it had already proven to be Hendrix’s most critically acclaimed release.

Did you miss it? It’s a funny thing. Hendrix is either an author that you’ve read everything from, or he’s an author you may not have heard about. I was hooked after a chance encounter with My Best Friend’s Exorcism, and now I don’t miss a release.

So, if you haven’t read his work yet, you won’t know much about this latest release that’s perfect to celebrate International Witch's Day with.

Set in 1970s Florida, we follow a group of pregnant teens. They’re trapped in a maternity home, waiting to give birth. Once they do, they will never get to see their babies again, not even knowing where they have been sent to. That’s the real scary reality from the ‘70s in this novel, but there is a supernatural horror mixed into it.

When the teens come across a paperback titled “How to Be a Groovy Witch,” they decide it’s time to access their power. Sure, they may not think that witchcraft is real at first, but they soon become masters of their own destinies. It’s time to prove that the doctors, their parents, and all the other adults in their lives don’t know what’s best for them.

I have said since I first read the novel that it was a gutsy move by Hendrix. A male author writing a power about the systemic oppression of women was a huge risk, but he achieved a genuine, heartfelt story mixed in with all the horror and gore. There’s an element of the tale that is sure to get your blood boiling, as you think about the things that were done to women to keep them oppressed and controlled. While there are still things that need to change, it’s also important not to forget about these maternity homes and the way women were oppressed in the past.

Don’t worry, Parade isn’t sharing the parts that will anger you. We want to celebrate International Witch's Day in style, and that means sharing something from “How to Be a Groovy Witch,” the fictional book in the novel that I feel needs to be an add-on in a deluxe package of Hendrix’s works so far.

Enjoy!

“Y’all have to see this,” Fern said, and with a flourish she pulled the book out from behind her back, the way a magician pulls a rabbit out of a hat.

She knew without being told that they shouldn’t have it. It felt electric in her hands.

“Another book,” Rose said. “Stupendous.”

“No,” Fern said. “This one’s different.”

On the cover, some long‑haired fox held a black candle. She wore a black turtleneck, a black miniskirt, and black knee‑high boots. A silver pentagram hung around her neck and she stared out at them with eyeliner eyes, lips slightly parted. A bunch of psychedelic lights hit her from the sides and at her feet sat a black plastic cauldron with dry ice coming out of the top. The entire setup looked like it came from Woolworth’s and cost $3.99.

“How to Be a Groovy Witch,” Zinnia read the title out loud. “By Eth Natas. Oh, brother.”

She closed her eyes and went back to trying not to throw up.

“No, listen,” Fern said.

And she opened the book and gave the audition of her life.

“Magic isn’t real,” Zinnia said.

“The Salem witches were real,” Fern said. “I’ve done the play.”

“The Salem witches were a bunch of teenage girls stuck in the middle of nowhere who got a lot of people killed because they were bored.”

Fern was sick of the level of ingratitude around here.

“This book is the first interesting thing that’s happened to us in weeks and y’all are acting like it’s chores,” she said, voice hard. “Everyone complains that we’ve got nothing to do and nothing to watch but reruns and now something actually happens that might be fun and y’all start griping. Has Wellwood turned y’all into a bunch of squares?”

The last was directed at Rose. Fern knew Rose would rather die than be square.

“Fine,” Rose said. “Read us something good.”

Even Holly started paying attention now. Fern liked being the center of attention.

No one said a word in the darkening room. Outside, the summer sky turned from lavender to gray. Shadows congealed in the corners like dirty cobwebs. The only light came from the glowing tips of their cigarettes.

“Okay,” Rose said. “What do we do next.”

“First,” Fern said. “We need to find the right spell.”

“Have none of y’all ever read a book?” Zinnia asked. “Messing around with this stuff is a bad idea.”
“What can possibly go wrong?” Fern asked.

“Everything,” Zinnia said.

Rosie O’Donnell is back in the U.S., getting ready to debut her one-woman Broadway show ‘Common Knowledge,’ and opening up about some very personal changes. The comedian and actress recently spoke with Entertainment Tonight, opening up about the staggering cost of her facelift and about losing weight on Mounjaro.

How much did Rosie O’Donnell’s facelift cost?

While Rosie didn’t dish on the exact price of her lower facelift, she did share a ballpark figure, saying, “It’s kind of expensive. It was more expensive than any car I’ve ever purchased.”

The actress continued, explaining why she chose to get a facelift, “I had very big marionette lines from losing weight on Mounjaro for three years.” 

She also told ET, “But I had this extra skin and these big lines and people in Ireland are like, ‘Rosie, are you alright love?’ I’m like, why? ‘You look so sad.’ I’m like, ‘It’s not me, it’s my face.’”

Of course, this isn't the first time that O’Donnell has spoken publicly about her decision to have a facelift. 

View this post on Instagram

In May, she posted a before and after photo on Instagram and wrote about the procedure on her Substack: “I used to feel very strongly about facelifts. Not casually - morally. I had assigned myself as head of all women who would never - ever. I thought it was a betrayal. Of feminism. Of aging. Of our team of women worldwide. And then I lost 50 pounds.” 

She also got candid about body image, her child’s opinion on her decision, and acceptance, “And then I had this quiet realization…if I’m teaching Clay anything, it can’t be that my body belongs to an idea either. Even a good idea. Even feminism.” 

What did Rosie O’Donnell say about her recent weight loss?

O’Donnell also revealed to ET how she used the popular GLP-1 medication to lose weight, “For three years I’ve been on Mounjaro. Now, I don’t do what most people do when they go up really quickly. I stay on one dose a full year,” adding, “That’s what my doctor decided for my diabetes and what would be best for me. So I lose about 20 to 25 pounds a year. And this is my third year. So I’m at like 60-something pounds.” But that’s not the only good news.

The former daytime host/soon-to-be quest nighttime host (she’s filling in for Jimmy Kimmel this August) continued, “And now I can buy clothes off the rack. I don’t have to like go and try everything on to see what fits. I know I have a size that works, that fits, that you know, and I feel so much better. You know, I really do.” 

John Kirby, an acting coach for films like The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe and Scream 4, has died at the age of 75. He died three years after being diagnosed with ALS, a neurodegenerative disease.

Kirby’s death was confirmed by Nathan Nesbitt when the news broke on social media. Nesbitt was Kirby’s acting manager and assistant for 22 years, Variety reported.

“I am here to officially, with a broken heart, announce the passing of our beloved John on the early morning hours of Wednesday, July 15, and it has been devastating for all of us, and we’re trying to just find a way to cope,” Nesbitt posted.

In an additional statement, Nesbitt highlighted the legacy Kirby has left.

“I can’t turn on a television or watch a film without recognizing someone John coached, mentored or influenced,” Nesbitt said. “His fingerprints are everywhere in this industry. His impact extends far beyond the performances we see on screen — it’s woven into the very fabric of Hollywood.”

Kirby’s acting coaching stretches across Disney and Universal Pictures. He coached celebrities like Jeff Bridges, Jim Caviezel, Hilary Duff and Alyson Stoner. He also coached Chrissy Metz, who paid tribute to Kirby on Instagram.

“My John. My mentor. My friend,” Metz posted. “My cheerleader when there was no chance of winning, my sounding board free of judgment, full of encouragement, and always from a deep place of love. I will never be able to thank you enough for believing in me. I will never get over your innate sense of intuition, every single time.”

Metz continued, saying that even in suffering, Kirby remained “a brilliant and selfless teacher who will continue to bring people together.”

“Your legacy will live on in every one of us, always,” she said. “Until we meet again… I miss you. I love you. ‘Take care.’”

Metz’s fans quickly took to her comment section to share their thoughts and prayers with her.

“He would be so proud knowing that you’re currently shining on the Broadway stage,” one user said.

“I am covering you and everyone was privileged to love John in my condolences and my prayers,” another said.

A celebration of life service will be held for Kirby and open to the public on Aug. 15 at 1 p.m. at the Hall of Liberty at Forest Lawn Hollywood Hills.

Todd Bridges has a lucky flight to thank for reconnecting him with Diff'rent Strokes co-star Gary Coleman.

The 61-year-old actor, who played Willis Jackson on the iconic sitcom, opened up about mending his relationship with his on-screen little brother after years of not talking during an appearance at Fanboy Expo Knoxville over the weekend.

"The first three years [of Diff’rent Strokes] we were all very close, and then Gary’s parents came and changed a lot of stuff," Bridges remembered, as per PEOPLE. While he and Coleman "weren't very close" after that, Bridges said he was able to reconnect with Coleman before his death at age 42 in May 2010 due to a brain hemorrhage.

“I’ll tell you a funny story. I hadn’t seen Gary in years or talked to him in years. I’m about to get on a plane, and somebody says, ‘Hey, man, your little brother’s here,’” Bridges recalled. “I’m like, ‘I ain’t got no older brother, what are you talking about?’ He was like, ‘Your little brother’s here.’ I go, ‘Dude, I have no idea…’ He goes, ‘Gary Coleman.’"

“So I go, and I walk in on the plane, and I’m getting ready to sit down, and they sat us next to each other,” the actor continued. “We were going to different places in New York, but I’m sitting, and he goes, ‘They set us up.’ I go, ‘Yes, they did.’ So we ended up sitting there and talking, and that’s how we connected again.”

Bridges has been open about the ups and downs of his relationship with Coleman over the years, revealing last year that Coleman's father attempted to have him fired from Diff’rent Strokes after the two child stars got into a slapping fight.

"Gary’s father tried to have me fired,” Bridges said in an August 2025 appearance on The Patrick LabyorSheaux with Patrick Labyorteaux. “They were like, ‘We can’t fire him, [Coleman's father] Willie. We can’t fire Willis. The show is about Willis and Arnold. We’d be done.’"

"When the show ended, I didn’t talk to Gary," Bridges continued of the divide Coleman's father created between the two boys. "I was having my own issues, And then, as he started having issues, [we got] back together, and we became close again. Very, very close."

He even recalled reuniting with Coleman for an autograph signing as the Dirty Work actor was struggling with his health and helping him navigate the event in his wheelchair.

“Why are you pushing me after the things I’ve said about you?” Coleman asked, Bridges recalled, to which he replied, "You’re still my brother, man. It doesn’t matter."

The Firm introduced themselves to the public not only as an all-star band but also as a group capable of creating a rock anthem through "Radioactive."

Named by BBC Music Magazine as one of the "greatest supergroups" of all time, the four-piece band brought together musicians from Led Zeppelin, Bad Company and more, delivering a song that would become the band's biggest hit.

Released in 1985 as part of the British rock group's self-titled debut, The Firm featured Paul Rodgers on lead vocals and rhythm guitar, Jimmy Page on lead guitar, Tony Franklin on bass and keyboards and Chris Slade on drums. The band cracked the Billboard charts following the success of their first single.

The song entered the Billboard Hot 100 at No. 86 before climbing to a peak of No. 28, where it held the spot for two consecutive weeks.

Beyond its success on the Billboard Hot 100, "Radioactive" topped the Mainstream Rock chart, becoming The Firm's biggest commercial release.

Written by Rodgers, the singer jokingly described the creation of the song as "a five-minute write," hinting that the spontaneous burst of creativity made it easier for him to write and produce.

The iconic vocalist also mentioned that Page supported the process after liking the demo.

“So we decided to record it,” he said, as mentioned byUltimate Classic Rock. “A lot of people are surprised to find that I actually played the solo in that – it's a finger exercise. I wanted something that sounded kind of robotic, and Alexis Korner had shown me that exercise years and years ago."

In a post on Rodgers' YouTube channel, fans not only praised his powerful vocals but also celebrated "Radioactive" as a timeless classic more than 41 years after its release.

“Great song. Great musicians. Great video. Can't stop listening in 2026. Thanks, Mr. Rodgers,” one wrote.

“This song brings back the 80s for sure , the good old days,” a commenter said.

“Paul Rodgers' voice alone took this song up a few notches!” another added.

The post also prompted fans to reminisce about the memories associated with "Radioactive" and the emotions it evoked when they first heard it.

“I remember seeing this as a little kid and thinking ' that guitar player is a total rock star. I had no idea then who Free or Bad Co or Led Zeppelin were. But I knew it was cool when I saw and heard it,” a social media user said.

The same was true for another fan, who said, “I remember the first time I heard this on the radio in the car. I drove mesmerized and fell in love with that voice again!!! Great song!!”

Despite its brief two-year run as a supergroup, The Firm left a lasting mark on rock music with "Radioactive," a song that continues to be celebrated alongside the band's legacy.

Halloween may still be months away, but Costco is already getting shoppers in the spooky spirit with the return of one of its most talked-about decorations.

The retailer’s Giant Ground Breaking Skeleton has officially made its way back for the season, giving fans another chance to bring a larger-than-life Halloween display to their homes.

The oversized skeleton quickly became one of Costco’s most recognizable Halloween finds, with shoppers rushing to grab the dramatic decoration when it first gained popularity. Standing several feet tall, the skeleton features a spooky design that looks like it’s crawling out of the ground—making it an instant centerpiece for Halloween displays.

The decoration also includes eye-catching details designed to make it stand out after dark, including glowing elements and animated features that add extra drama to front yards and Halloween setups.

Now that the fan-favorite item has returned, shoppers are already preparing for spooky season, even though the calendar still says summer.

Costco’s early Halloween rollout has become part of a growing trend sometimes called "Summerween," where fans start celebrating Halloween earlier than ever with decorations, movies, treats and themed events arriving well before October.

For longtime Costco shoppers, the early arrival is no surprise. The warehouse retailer is known for bringing back popular seasonal items that often attract plenty of attention from collectors and holiday decorators.

Once the Halloween merchandise appears, some shoppers make their purchases quickly to avoid missing out before the season officially begins.

For Halloween fans who already have their costumes planned or simply like getting an early start, the return of Costco’s viral skeleton is a sign that spooky season is officially on its way.

Now, Costco members have started spotting one of those long-awaited arrivals in warehouse freezers, and fans are already celebrating its stateside debut.

Magnum Twistpops Are Now Available in the US View this post on Instagram

According to food influencer Mark Vayntraub, better known as Markie Devo, Costco warehouses are now carrying Magnum Twistpop Tripleberry, a frozen treat that's long been a favorite in the United Kingdom.

Known across the U.K. as Twister Berry-licious, the fruity ice pop combines raspberry, blueberry and blackcurrant flavors with a creamy vanilla-flavored ice center for a sweet and refreshing dessert that's especially popular during the warmer months.

Costco shoppers can find the frozen treats in a 15-count box at select warehouses.

American shoppers are freaking out over the frozen find. Some are begging for more U.K favorites to hit U.S. shelves, while one shopper summed up the news with one word: "Finally."

Some social media users also said they've started spotting the frozen treats in local corner stores, suggesting they may become easier to find over time.

Why British Shoppers Love This Frozen Treat

Twister Berry-licious has been a British summer staple for years, making it one of those frozen treats many people grew up eating. Its combination of tart berry flavors and creamy vanilla gives it a lighter, fruit-forward taste than traditional ice cream bars while still feeling like an indulgent dessert.

The addition of black currant also makes it stand out. While it's a common flavor in the U.K., it's much less common in American frozen desserts, giving U.S. shoppers a chance to try a flavor combination they may not have experienced before.

If you're looking for something different to keep in the freezer this summer, this Costco find could be worth adding to your cart. Whether you're already a fan of British snacks or simply like trying new frozen desserts, Magnum Twistpop Tripleberry offers a refreshing twist on the classic ice pop.
