In your youth, you may have relished the sun, soaking up as much of the golden rays as you could. In decades past, baby oil was passed around more readily than sunscreen. Leaving the beach with a tan was the goal. Now, there’s a good chance that’s the very thing you’re trying to avoid.

Prolonged time in the sun without proper protection not only makes skin look older by reducing the elastin and collagen in the skin, it also greatly increases the risk of skin cancer, which is the most common type of cancer in the U.S. 

According to the Skin Cancer Foundation, one in five Americans will develop skin cancer by age 70. The good news is that when it’s detected early, skin cancer is highly treatable.

While protecting skin from the sun’s UV rays by wearing protective clothing and sunscreen is paramount to reducing the risk of skin cancer, a study published in JAMA Dermatology highlights another way to lower the risk: upping intake of a common vitamin. 

Here, dermatologists explain what that vitamin is and how consuming it plays a supporting role in protecting against skin cancer.

The Vitamin That Lowers the Risk of Skin Cancer

According to the JAMA Dermatology study, consuming nicotinamide, a form of vitamin B3, could help lower the risk of two types of skin cancer. Nicotinamide has been recommended by doctors to people with a history of skin cancer since a 2015 study found that taking the supplement lowered the risk of recurrence. 

The JAMA Dermatology study included 33,833 people. Participants who took 500 milligrams of nicotinamide twice a day for more than 30 days had a 14% reduced risk of skin cancer. For people who started taking nicotinamide after being diagnosed with skin cancer, the risk reduction of getting skin cancer again jumped to 54%.

“Vitamin B3, particularly in the form of nicotinamide, helps support the skin’s ability to repair DNA damage caused by ultraviolet radiation,” says Dr. Jenna Queller, MD, FAAD, a dermatologist and the founder of DermWorks. 

She explains that UV exposure can damage DNA and impair cellular energy stores, which can lead to the development of skin cancer. “Nicotinamide helps replenish cellular energy and enhances the skin’s natural DNA repair mechanisms,” she explains.

Dr. Lauren Rimoin, MD,a dermatologist with Westlake Dermatology, says that another way vitamin B3 helps lower the risk of skin cancer is by supporting the skin’s local immune system to catch and eliminate precancerous cells. There are other skin benefits, too. “You will often find niacinamide listed as an ingredient in topical skin care products. This is because it strengthens the skin barrier, reduces redness and inflammation and can improve acne,” she says.

How To Get Vitamin B3 Through Food

There is no shortage of foods with vitamin B3. Cosmetic dermatologist Dr. Danny Guo, MD, says that beef, pork, poultry and fish all have vitamin B3. He adds that nuts, seeds, peanuts, legumes and grains also contain the nutrient, as well as many fortified foods, like cereal. 

If you want to take a vitamin B3 supplement for the purpose of skin cancer prevention, he recommends taking a 500 milligram dose twice a day, which is the dose the scientific study found to be beneficial. “There is no evidence on higher dosages of vitamin B3 supplementation for further reduction of skin cancer risk, so I would not recommend this,” he explains.

Dr. Rimoin adds to this, saying that taking too much vitamin B3 can increase the risk of heart attack and stroke.

Other Ways To Reduce Your Risk of Skin Cancer

While the link between vitamin B3 consumption and a reduced risk of skin cancer has been shown in multiple scientific studies, all three dermatologists emphasize that upping your intake of the nutrient or taking a vitamin B3 supplement should not be considered a primary way to protect yourself from skin cancer. Instead, it should be viewed as a secondary way to lower the risk.

“The most effective way to reduce skin cancer risk remains comprehensive sun protection. This includes wearing a broad-spectrum SPF 30 or higher every day, seeking shade during peak UV hours, wearing sun-protective clothing, hats and sunglasses and avoiding tanning beds,” Dr. Queller says.

She adds that regular skin examinations are also important, especially for anyone with a history of skin cancer or who gets a lot of sun exposure. Remember, skin cancer is highly treatable when it’s caught early. 

As we move into summer, protecting your skin from the UV rays is especially important. To protect yourself, apply sunscreen regularly when you’re going to be outside and wear protective clothing. Getting enough vitamin B3 can help too, but it shouldn’t replace your sunscreen.

TV legend Marlo Thomas looks incredible, almost two years after the death of her beloved husband, talk show icon Phil Donahue.

The entertainment icon and philanthropist, 88, rose to stardom on That Girl and later pioneered the children’s franchise Free to Be… You and Me. In a new appearance alongside actress Candice Bergen and legendary journalist Diane Sawyer, the beloved star looked happy and healthy. After the devastation of Donahue's death in 2024 after a long illness, Thomas is doing great once again.

The trio hit up the opening night of Every Brilliant Thing at the Hudson Theatre, and looked like the ultimate girls' squad. Pretty in pink, Thomas held hands with Sawyer.

Her First Interview Since Donahue’s Death

Last year, Thomas spoke about the loss of her husband of 44 years during an appearance on TODAY.

“I’m doing well. I’m like Sheinelle,” Thomas, referencing TODAY’s Sheinelle Jones, whose husband, Uche Ojeh, died of brain cancer in May 2025.

In response, Jones said that Thomas has “been my Earth angel.”

“Thank you. I miss him a lot,” Thomas said of Donahue.

Following Donahue’s death, Thomas shared a sweet message on Instagram alongside a vintage photo of the duo riding a Vespa together on vacation.

“Until I return, I wish you good health and happy days in the company of family and friends, and I hope that you will continue to hold close those you cherish most, just as I was blessed to do with my beloved Phillip,” Thomas captioned the photo.

While Thomas has stayed low-key since Donahue’s death, she did make a rare exception recently. On Thanksgiving Day, Thomas appeared on the “Daily Variety” podcast to share the story of how her father, entertainer Danny Thomas, launched St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital in Memphis, Tenn. Thomas is a frequent face in the hospital's commercials, which serve children facing pediatric cancer and other life-threatening illnesses.

“My sister and brother, and I created this 22 years ago. We’ve raised $1 billion so far on this program, which we’re very excited about, and we brought it up to $100 million dollars a year program now,” Thomas said during her appearance, Variety reported. “Nobody pays at Saint Jude. Nobody pays for anything. They don’t pay for treatment or travel or housing or food. We pay for all of that. And it’s our honor and privilege to do that.”

The Cro-Mags have released their first new song in six years, marking a major return for one of hardcore punk's most influential bands. 

The New York hardcore veterans premiered “Wired For Chaos,” a track that arrives alongside an official music video directed by Rex Miller, exclusively on Rolling Stone.

The song shares its title with the 2024 documentary centered on Cro-Mags founder, vocalist and bassist Harley Flanagan. The release also comes after the band signed with BLKIIBLK, the heavy metal imprint of Frontiers Label Group. A new full-length album is currently targeted for release in 2027.

Speaking about the track, Flanagan described its sound and structure in detail.

“It comes in with an aggressive metal intro befitting a UFC walk-in or a video game, then bursts into a more traditional HC thrash vibe before returning to a heavy beatdown at the end in an unmistakable Cro-Mags style,” he said, according to Lamb Goat.

The song explores deeply personal themes tied to Flanagan's life experiences.

“The song is literally about being programmed and wired for chaos from birth, not just by environment, but by parents, trauma, childhood experiences, and the resulting PTSD that I personally struggle with as a result.”

Cro-Mags’ New Song Signals Next Era 

“Wired For Chaos” is the band's first new original song since the release cycle surrounding their 2020 album In The Beginning. The latest track continues the aggressive blend of hardcore punk and thrash metal that helped establish the Cro-Mags as one of New York City's defining heavy music acts.

The band has played a significant role in the development of hardcore music since emerging from New York's underground scene in the early 1980s. Their influence has extended beyond hardcore punk, helping shape crossover thrash and other alternative heavy music styles.

Earlier this year, Flanagan revealed that work was underway on the band's next studio album. The project reportedly involves drummer Greyson Nekrutman and producer Arthur Rizk, who has previously worked with several notable metal acts.

The upcoming record will follow In The Beginning, which was released in June 2020. Prior to that album, the group issued the Don't Give In EP in August 2019 and the From The Grave EP in December of the same year.

The newly released music video for “Wired For Chaos” highlights footage captured during recent Cro-Mags performances. According to Flanagan, the video reflects the broad audience that has supported the band throughout its history.

The release of “Wired For Chaos” arrives during a busy period for the band and Flanagan personally. The documentary Harley Flanagan: Wired For Chaos, which chronicles his turbulent life and survival story, reached theaters in June 2025.

Earlier this year, the Cro-Mags also shared a newly recorded version of their classic song “Hard Times” to celebrate the 40th anniversary of their landmark debut album The Age Of Quarrel.

With a new label partnership, a fresh single and a full-length album planned for 2027, the Cro-Mags are once again adding new music to a legacy that has stretched across more than four decades.

Sopranos star Aida Turturro suffered a heart attack without realizing it.

The acclaimed actress, 63, earned two Emmy nominations for her role as the chaotic sister of Tony Soprano, played by James Gandolfini, on the iconic HBO series. Janice, often known for sweeping into town and creating mayhem wherever she landed, also forged several hectic romantic relationships during her run on the series. Without any major spoilers, let’s just say that you won’t want to miss Janice’s tumultuous storylines on the memorable series. But in a new appearance on the June 3 episode of the MeSsy with Christina Applegate & Jamie-Lynn Sigler podcast, Turturro revealed her real life mirrored the drama of her hit show when she suffered a heart attack. However, she didn't realize that's what it was.

 “I should've died, I could've died, I was lucky it wasn't my time,” said Turturro, who has rheumatoid arthritis and diabetes.

Turturro was "in pain on the floor" at a friend's house, she explained, PEOPLE reported. “My friend's daughter is like, ‘Should we call the ambulance?' [and] I'm like, ‘Nah, I'm fine' … I get in the car, I walk to my house.”

She went home and lay down, but her cousin encouraged her to see a cardiologist. A few days later, she went to the doctor.

“I go to the doctor … [an] amazing doctor … and he's like, ‘Yeah … you had a heart attack,' ” Turturro recalled, adding that she was told that “88 to 90 percent” of her arteries were clogged.  She was rushed to the hospital and had a quadruple bypass.

After her heart attack, Turturro has been working toward her health. In a recent red carpet appearance, the star showed off her svelte frame and looked happier than ever.

Staying in Touch With Her Sopranos Costars

While The Sopranos concluded in 2007, the cast has managed to stay close. Turturro recently took to social media to share a photo from a lunch reunion with two of her costars: Steven Van Zandt, who played Silvio Dante, and Steve Schirripa, who played Bobby Bacala on the series. Looking happy and healthy, Turturro smiled brightly alongside her former costars.

“Lunch with the boys❤️,” she captioned the shot.

What we love about this style is that it has a contoured footbed with arch support. The insole is additionally cushioned, making it shock-absorbent, and consists of a deep heel cup that provides stability on the bare foot (so you don't have to wear socks with them to be ultra-comfy!). The new arrival is the kind of shoe that you can slip on at a moment's notice, making it ideal for everything from running errands to family events.

Amy Adamshit the red carpet with husband Darren Le Gallo and daughter Aviana Le Gallo, and the internet can't get over Aviana being a total doppelgänger—but not for Adams.

As shared by Entertainment Tonight, Adams attended the premiere for her upcoming Apple TV series Cape Fear, which will hit the streamer on June 5, alongside her husband and daughter. The comments of Entertainment Tonight's post are full of well wishes for the family and excitement over the new project.

However, fans couldn't help but notice one shocking detail: Adams' daughter Aviana is a dead ringer for actress Scarlett Johansson.

View this post on Instagram

One commenter writes, "Her daughter looks just [like] Scarlett Johansson!!!!! ❤️🔥," and another says, "Oh my gosh, your daughter looks like Scarlett Johansson very beautiful. Congrats on the new show."

A few comments also take a more lighthearted approach, with one commenter joking, "Does Amy Adams know she gave birth to Scarlett Johansson?"

Aviana, born in 2010, is Adams' only child. So far, she has starred in just one project, Disenchanted, the sequel movie to Adams' beloved 2007 Disney movie Enchanted. In Disenchanted, Aviana had only a cameo role as "Little Girl in Town Square."

Yet, after this most recent red carpet appearance, many in the comments are saying it's only a matter of time before she hits the big screen again with her own career (although that remains to be seen).

Cape Fear is executive produced by industry icons Martin Scorsese and Steven Spielberg and stars Adams, Javier Bardem, Lily Collins and Patrick Wilson. The story centers on a married couple (Adams and Wilson), who are thrust into a harrowing, terrifying experience when a killer from their past (Bardem) returns.

The new series is a remake of two prior films of the same name, one in 1962 and one in 1991. All three projects are based on John D. MacDonald’s 1957 novel The Executioners.

Food Network is bringing back the tournament format to Guy's Grocery Games, and this time the competition is going global.

According to the latest issue of Food Network Magazine, Guy's Grocery Games: Global Games premieres Wednesday, July 8, at 9 p.m. ET. Hosted by Guy Fieri, the tournament will feature eight accomplished chefs competing for a $50,000 prize and what the network describes as "international glory."

The competition appears to put a global spin on the format that proved popular last year with the show's Greatest of All Time (GOAT) Tournament, which brought together some of the winningest chefs in Guy's Grocery Games history.

This year's field features eight returning competitors, each associated with a different culinary tradition from around the world.

Representing Italian cuisine is Gabe Bertaccini, while Claudette Zepeda will bring Mexican flavors to the competition. Viet Pham appears poised to represent Vietnamese cuisine, David Viana the Portuguese and Iberian traditions, and Aarthi Sampath with Indian cuisine.

The field also includes Kevin Lee representing Korean cuisine, Einat Admony showcasing Middle Eastern and Israeli flavors, and Tobias Dorzon bringing West African cuisine into the spotlight.

A promotional image released by the magazine shows each chef wearing a different colored track jacket, giving the tournament the feel of an international sporting event. The chefs are grouped together beneath the title Global Games, reinforcing the worldwide theme.

The new tournament promises another opportunity for viewers to watch some of the franchise's most recognizable competitors navigate the unpredictable twists that have made Guy's Grocery Games a longtime Food Network favorite.

Let’s be honest: the traditional hotel minibar is rarely a source of genuine wellness. For decades, it has been the place you turn to for an overpriced sleeve of peanuts, a late-night candy bar or a tiny bottle of club soda after a exhausting day of travel. But one iconic luxury property is officially turning that old-school amenity completely on its head—and trading out the standard junk food for a chilled, ultimate self-care oasis that requires absolutely no spa appointment.

Just in time for the hectic summer travel season, The Spa at Four Seasons Hotel Washington, DC has announced the debut of "The Beauty Vault." Instead of leaving guests to browse a basket of salty snacks, the hotel is wheeling a retro-style, designer Smeg mini-refrigerator straight into your room, packed to the brim with a chilled, carefully curated collection of premium, editor-approved skincare and cult-favorite beauty essentials.

The idea behind the upgrade is to blend the ultimate convenience of in-room relaxation with a serious, results-driven approach to traveling self-care. Because long-haul flights, changing climates, and intense summer heat can wreak absolute havoc on your skin, the hotel’s spa team hand-selected products specifically designed to target post-travel recovery, hydration and brightening.

And yes, keeping them stashed inside a custom Smeg fridge isn't just for a great Instagram photo. Delivering the products perfectly chilled prior to your arrival significantly enhances their physical performance. The cold temperature instantly helps depuff tired eyes, constrict blood vessels, calm inflammation, and turn a standard nighttime lotion application into a deeply refreshing, revitalizing ritual after a long day of sightseeing.

What is Packed Inside the Luxury Fridge

So, what exactly are you getting when you open up that retro door? The self-guided wellness vault skips the generic lotions and loads up on heavy-hitting, premium spa staples:

• Internal Wellness Boot: A Cause Medic wellness shot and specialized sleep gummies to help reset your internal clock and fight off jet lag.
• Targeted Masking: A high-end KNESKO Diamond Radiance face sheet mask and matching under-eye mask.
• Advanced Serums & Tools: Epicutis lipid serum paired with a luxury Natura Bissé microcurrent Gua Sha tool, plus their signature C+C Vitamin eye cream, exfoliating scrub, and soufflé mask.
• Total Body Relaxation: VOESH collagen gloves for parched hands and a soothing, weighted jade eye mask.

If you want to take your in-room pampering to a tech-forward level, guests can also request add-on high-tech tools to complement their routine, including a HigherDOSE red light therapy mask for your face and décolleté ($75) or a deep-healing infrared heating mat ($100) to boost your body's circulation and muscle recovery.

The Ultimate No-Appointment-Needed Luxury

For travelers managing tight itineraries, business meetings, or packed family schedules, the true luxury of the setup is the complete flexibility it offers.

“With The Beauty Vault, we are continuing to evolve how guests experience wellness during their stay,” says Erin Meyer, Spa Director at Four Seasons Hotel Washington, DC. “It offers the flexibility to maintain personal routines, discover new products, and enjoy meaningful results, all within the comfort of the guest room.”

The entire Beauty Vault experience can be added to your stay for $550 per person, and it can be reserved online right when you book your room or requested directly from the concierge during your visit. While it is certainly an investment, it completely redefines the concept of room service—proving that sometimes the best way to unwind after a frantic day of travel is to skip the cocktail menu, put on a plush robe and raid a designer fridge full of gold-standard skincare instead.

When it comes to traveling by plane in 2026, it really is up in the air how your trip will go (pun intended). From rising fees and operational disruptions to changing loyalty programs and more, modern-day airline travel can definitely be a bit of a stressful and uncertain experience, to say the very least. All of that said, airlines are still trying to meet consumer needs and prioritize reliability, value and customer experience. This is why the Best Airlines Report, released this morning by The Points Guy (TPG), is especially pertinent.

"The aviation industry has gone through one of the most challenging years on record," said Brian Kelly, founder of The Points Guy, in a press release shared via email with Parade. "From operational challenges to evolving traveler expectations, airlines have had to adapt quickly. Our Best Airlines Report cuts through the noise to provide travelers with a data-driven look at which carriers are delivering the best overall experience, helping consumers book with confidence and choose the airline that best fits their needs."

Here is The Points Guy's top choice for the best airline in 2026.

2026's Best Airlines, According to The Points Guy

For the 10th year in a row, TPG narrowed down its top picks for the best airlines. It based its rankings on a weighted analysis of objective data from 2025, examining every part of the travel day, including timeliness, baggage handling, affordability, aircraft features and loyalty.

In 2026, TPG chose Delta as the best airline. This marks the eighth consecutive year the airline has ranked number one in TPG's annual report. However, this year's ranking was super close. In fact, it was by the slimmest margin in the ranking's history; Delta only narrowly beat out United Airlines and Southwest Airlines, ranked number two and number three, respectively.

TPG's choice of Delta yet again shows the power of a positive in-flight experience and the importance of reliability when traveling. Known for its reliable operations, premium cabin offerings, expansive lounge network and strong customer experience, it makes sense that Delta is at the top again.

Eve Plumb will forever be known as Jan Brady on The Brady Bunch, but the former child star had a successful acting career both before and after the 1970s sitcom.

In a new interview, Plumb, 68, admitted that she wished more fans knew her from Fudge, a short-lived children’s series she appeared in in the 1990’s.

“That would be great,” Plumb said in an interview with Houston Public Media. “I wish Fudge had lasted a little bit longer. I love doing Fudge, but Disney bought ABC, so they had their own Saturday morning content, but Fudge was great.”

The series, which aired on ABC’s Saturday morning schedule for two short seasons in 1995, was based on the Judy Blume book series of the same name. Plumb admitted she wasn’t aware of the book franchise when she auditioned for the part as mom Anne Hatcher.

“I didn't know Fudge when I went to went into audition,” Plumb shared. “It was a last-minute audition, and I went in, and I had like a couple seconds with the script, and so I'm a pretty good cold read, so I was like, 'Okay, I get it. It's mom and a kid, I think.’ I said, ‘Okay, I'm sorry. Um, is Fudge a friend from outer space or no?’ ‘He's your three-year-old son.’ Oh, okay. Great. Got it. Go!”

Plumb, who was known for her long blonde hair on The Brady Bunch, wasn’t always recognized on the Fudge show.

“And I had also dyed my hair dark brown, which made me very happy because right about that time I never got recognized and it made me relax a lot more in public, and so I got cast as a brunette,” she said. “It was great.”

Blume, who was one of the most beloved and prolific children's book writers of the 1970s and ‘80s, didn’t have quite as fond memories of the TV show about the young character in her book series.

“There's a TV series from the Fudge books,” she told January magazine in an interview. “That was an emotionally difficult experience. … Emotional and frustrating. Because you know, they said they needed my input desperately. So we went out there and stayed for several months and they wouldn't let me anywhere near it. It was terrible. I was referred to as the writer of the original material. It was a great lesson in surviving a degrading, humiliating experience.”

“Wanting to work with and participate and having been invited and then shoved aside. It was really pretty bad," she added.

Blume did credit the cast for their work on the series.

“I loved the cast,” she said. “The cast was really lovely. The children were wonderful. The set direction was incredible. I couldn't believe what they were able to build on a lot. The brilliant creative stuff was fun, in that way. I just wanted it to be so good. And I just thought it could be so different. Everybody is always in a hurry. You know, hurry, hurry, hurry, hurry. So I was disappointed.“

If you're dealing with a room in your home that receives little natural light, you're going to want to be thoughtful when selecting a paint color for the space. After all, some hues—even those that you might expect to work just fine in such a room—can make a dimly lit space appear even more cramped and cave-like. Below, interior designers highlight five shades they'd surely skip in a dark room time and time again.

1. Dark Charcoal

In a room that's already dark, selecting a dark charcoal paint color will result in a look that's too severe, explains Esther Ellard, the founder of Effortless Designs. "There is a balance between drama and 'dungeon dark,'" she says. "With charcoal, you really want a room that has more natural light to give it a more organic feel."

Generally speaking, colors with a low LRV (black, deep green, navy and the like) are ones to avoid unless your room features ample natural light. "What looks rich and dramatic on a small swatch can end up absorbing light once it covers an entire room," says Lauren Saab, the founder of Saab Studios. "Ultra-dark paint colors need balance—otherwise, the room can start feeling more closed in than cozy."

2. Cool Grays

Some lighter hues are going to be problematic in dark rooms, too, for example, cool gray. "Cool grays can be lovely in certain scenarios, but definitely not in dark rooms," shares Ellard. "Without enough natural light, they can seem very cold and lifeless, making the entire room feel the opposite of cozy."

You might assume that a stark white will brighten up your dark room in an instant, but Saab cautions against going in this direction, noting that this shade will "often backfire" in such an instance. "Icy whites can make low-light interiors feel flat and cold instead," the designer says. "In rooms without much natural light, they tend to pull gray undertones rather than warmth, which can leave the whole space feeling a little lifeless by afternoon."

4. Colors With Yellow or Green Undertones

Rebecca Merritt isn't a fan of how colors with yellow or green undertones end up reading in darker rooms. "Under the artificial lighting that dark rooms rely on, those undertones shift in really unflattering ways," cautions the founder of Merritt Design Co. "What looks like a soft, earthy neutral in the can will turn dingy once it's on the wall and you're living with it under lamps and overhead lights."

5. Highly Saturated Colors

Skip any highly saturated color in this type of room, too, Merritt advises. "Deep, rich hues need light to really come alive and feel intentional," she says. "In a dark room, that saturation just feels heavy and oppressive rather than dramatic, and you end up with a space that feels smaller and more cave-like, not cozy."

When it comes to creating the ultimate spot to relax, few pieces of furniture can compete with a hanging egg chair. Whether you're enjoying a warm summer evening outside or curling up indoors with a good book, there's something uniquely cozy about the cocoon-like design and gentle swaying. The downside is that many egg chairs feel a bit cramped, limiting how comfortably you can lounge.

If you've been searching for a roomier option, the LHBcraft Double Wicker Hanging Egg Chair is worth considering. Designed to comfortably accommodate two people, it offers significantly more space than traditional hanging chairs. Right now, it's on sale for 49% off at Walmart, dropping the price from $370 to just $190.

The chair features an impressive 700-pound weight capacity and measures 51.1 inches long, 38.6 inches wide, and 79 inches tall. The generously sized seat has a depth of 26.5 inches, giving you plenty of room to stretch out. You can choose between beige cushions with a black frame or black cushions paired with a beige frame.

The cushions are filled with high-elastic polyester fiber that provides both softness and support. The breathable polyester fabric helps keep seating comfortable even during warmer weather, while the thick cushioning creates a plush feel that's inviting for extended lounging sessions. The cushions are also fade-resistant and water-resistant, making them practical for outdoor use.

The chair is crafted from all-weather PE wicker woven over a sturdy e-coated steel frame. Both the frame and stand feature rust-resistant finishes designed to withstand outdoor conditions. The materials are waterproof, UV-resistant, and built to handle long-term exposure to the elements without compromising appearance or performance.

Legendary rock singer David Lee Roth is hitting more cities in 2026 after announcing five additional shows for his North American tour.

The former Van Halen frontman revealed the update through his official channels, adding new stops in Canada and the United States as demand continues to grow for his ongoing Don't Love Me, Rent Me tour.

The newly announced dates include Edmonton, Alberta on July 10, Vancouver, British Columbia on July 13, Salt Lake City, Utah on July 21, Louisville, Kentucky on July 28 and East Moline, Illinois on July 31.

Fans can access an early ticket presale beginning June 3 at 10 A.M. using the password ROTHROCKS through David Lee Roth's official website. Public ticket sales begin June 5 at 10  A.M.

The tour now stretches across the United States and Canada throughout the summer, featuring more than 20 scheduled performances.

View this post on Instagram

Roth's 2026 itinerary begins June 3 in Port Chester, New York, and includes stops in New Jersey, Ohio, Indiana, Michigan, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Florida, Colorado, South Dakota, California, Nevada and several Canadian cities.

The expanded schedule comes after Roth's highly publicized return to live performances. The singer stepped away from touring for five years before making his comeback in May 2025.

Since returning to the road, Roth has performed with a band that includes a guitarist, bassist, drummer  and four male backing vocalists. His recent concerts have featured many of the songs that helped establish him as one of rock music's most recognizable frontmen.

Known to generations of fans as "Diamond Dave," Roth rose to fame as the lead vocalist of Van Halen. He fronted the band during multiple eras, including its classic lineup years from 1974 to 1985, a brief reunion in 1996 and again from 2007 until the group's final years before disbanding in 2020.

His solo career also produced notable hits including "California Girls," "Yankee Rose" and "Just Like Paradise."

The tour announcement arrives shortly after Roth shared personal memories about his songwriting partnership with late guitar icon Eddie Van Halen during a recent concert appearance.

Speaking to fans during a performance, Roth reflected on the small space where many of Van Halen's earliest songs were created.

"The beginnings of every song we sing to you tonight, I started with Ed," Roth told the audience, per Guitar Player.

He described the room where the pair worked together in the band's early years.

"When I first walked into Ed’s, it wasn’t even a room," Roth recalled. "It was identical to the way I grew up."

According to Roth, the space was so small that the two musicians worked closely together while developing ideas that would later become some of Van Halen's most famous songs.

Van Halen's self-titled debut album arrived in 1978 and quickly gained national attention. Over the following years, the band released a string of successful albums and became one of the defining rock acts of its generation.

Roth remains closely linked to that legacy while continuing to perform for audiences across North America.

With five new shows added to an already packed schedule, fans will have more opportunities to see the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame singer live during the summer of 2026.

The full tour continues through September, concluding with a scheduled performance in Laughlin, Nevada on Sept. 5.

Chipotle is giving away 53,000 burritos — and here’s how you can get yours! Basketball fans already know that the June 3 matchup between the New York Knicks and the San Antonio Spurs is a must-watch event. But now they have another reason to tune in. 

In celebration of the chain’s new “53 Years. 53 Real Ingredients” campaign, Chipotle is treating 53,000 customers to the eatery’s beloved burritos for free.

How can customers get a free Chipotle burrito?

Chipotle will post a text-to-win code on X immediately after the final game of the series. All you need to do is text the code to 888-222 for your chance to score a freebie. But don’t wait. Only the first 53,000 customers will get the chance to snag this delicious deal. 

Why is Chipotle giving away 53,000 free burritos?

What is so important about the number 53? Knicks or Spurs fans may already know the answer. The year 1973 is important to both teams. It was the last time the New York Knicks won the NBA Championships, and it was also the San Antonio Spurs’ first season as a professional basketball team. If you do the math, 1973 was exactly 53 years ago. And that’s why Chipotle is giving away 53,000 free burritos during this year’s NBA Championship. 

Senior Vice President of Brand Marketing at Chipotle, Stephanie Perdue, said of the new offer, “This year’s series created a connection we couldn’t ignore: 53 years tied to a unique championship storyline and 53 real ingredients that define Chipotle.” 

Perdue continued, “Giving away 53,000 free burritos is our way of bringing the story to life for fans.” 

Along with the giveaway, Chipotle is introducing two new high-protein meals as featured digital menu items named after NBA stars in honor of the Finals: New York Knicks’ Josh Hart and Mikal Bridges. 

Josh Hart’s High Protein Burrito (95 grams of protein) features white rice, double adobo chicken, black beans, fresh tomato salsa, sour cream, and cheese. Mikal Bridges’ High Protein Bowl (71 grams of protein) includes white rice, double adobo chicken, tomatillo-green chili salsa, roasted chili-corn salsa, and lettuce. These digital order items are only available for a limited time. 

If you're anything like me, right about now is when the health goals get real—more protein, more movement and a genuine effort to make better food and beverage choices. The non-negotiable in my morning routine is caffeine, and I always need plenty of it. And more times than I'd like to admit, I pair that coffee with a donut. (In my defense, there is an amazing donut shop down the street from my house.) But thanks to the 90-degree temperatures over the past few weeks, I've been leaning into protein shakes before going for my daily walk.

Naturally, I've dusted off my blender and started playing around with different ingredients—because unlike normal people, I want everything I consume to be a treat. And just in time for National Donut Day—Friday, June 5—I've found a way to celebrate that won't derail my diet. The move is simple: I add one of 5-hour ENERGY's new donut-inspired flavors—Jelly Donut or Boston Cream—to my morning protein shake and it transforms into a frosty, donuty, sugar-free treat.

My Spiked Protein Shake > Coffee and a Smoothie

Have you ever tried to drink a coffee and a smoothie or protein shake during your morning rush? Not the best combo—you're either wasting the coffee or the blended beverage. And if you actually do manage to finish both cups, your stomach is not a happy camper. (I'll spare you the details from when I retched over a toilet as fellow gym-goers asked if I was okay.) Combining them into one concoction means not only less liquid for your body to process, but also way less for you to drink.

Now I've got my protein, caffeine and energy all in one glass—no wasted drink suffering in my car's cupholder, no sugar crash and no tummy ache. My new recipes also help me stick to my fitness goals—I get the sweet flavor with zero calories and no sugar.

My 4 Donut-Inspired Protein Shakes

I'm always a little skeptical of anything that promises dessert flavor with no sugar, but these new flavor shots are the real deal. Instead of being just a novelty, they've earned a spot in my morning routine. I get my protein, caffeine and energy, all in one frosty treat that helps me stick to my goals and beat the summer heat.

A quick note before you blend: Each shake will contain one bottle of 5-hour ENERGY, so you're essentially getting the same amount of caffeine as a 12-ounce cup of coffee. You can also use half and save the rest for the next time you need a boost. For the protein powder, my go-to is neutral vanilla protein to let the donut flavor shine, but feel free to sub it with any flavor you think might work best.

1. Boston Cream Protein Shake

• 1 scoop vanilla protein powder
• 1 cup of skim or low-fat milk (or your favorite milk alternative)
• A handful of ice
• 5-hour ENERGY Boston Cream Donut shot

Blend everything until smooth and frosty. That's it—creamy vanilla and chocolate, no bakery run required. And I'm telling you, you're really gonna taste that Boston Cream flavor in the shake.

3. Jelly Donut Protein Shake

• 1 scoop vanilla protein powder
• 1 cup of skim or low-fat milk (or your favorite milk alternative)
• A handful of ice
• 5-hour ENERGY Jelly Donut shot

Blend until smooth. The raspberry-jelly finish is chef's kiss, and the caffeine, B-vitamins and protein definitely pack a punch.

2. Bougie Boston Cream Shake

• 1 scoop vanilla protein powder
• 1 cup of skim or low-fat milk (or your favorite milk alternative)
• Boston Cream Donut shot
• 1–2 crushed Nilla Wafers or graham crackers
• A handful of ice
• A small pinch of flaky sea salt

Same as the first recipe, but you''ll add the crushed Nilla Wafers or graham crackers before blending, which adds a little crust-like texture. Finish with a pinch of sea salt—I always save some of the crushed Nilla Wafers to sprinkle on top, too!

4. Peanut Butter and Jelly Donut Protein Shake

This protein shake is both natural and nostalgic. The peanut butter turns the jelly flavor into a full-on PB&J moment—childhood vibes, a nice salty-sweet combo and it's genuinely filling. The peanut butter adds more protein and nutrients, too.

• 1 scoop vanilla protein powder
• 1 cup of skim or low-fat milk (or your favorite milk alternative)
• 5-hour ENERGY Jelly Donut shot
• 1 tablespoon peanut butter
• A handful of ice

When you start planning a major milestone vacation that includes everyone from grandparents to toddlers, it's incredibly easy to default to the standard, predictable playbook. For decades, the conventional wisdom has been to book a cookie-cutter villa at a massive Florida theme park resort or look into a structured vacation club property. But according to a comprehensive new study, the absolute best place on earth to craft an unforgettable, multi-generational luxury getaway is actually a bucket-list tropical paradise hidden halfway across the globe.

To identify the world's premier hotspots for multi-generational luxury travel, the destination experts at luxury tour operator Kuoda launched a deep-dive data analysis. Rather than simply tallying up standard hotel counts, the study evaluated 25 global destinations against the specific, non-negotiable pillars that actually make a three-generation trip function seamlessly: the availability of expansive luxury family resorts, a balanced ratio of adult to child-friendly attractions, high-end all-inclusive availability and overall regional safety scores.

The surprise crown winner? Bali, Indonesia, which blew past traditional domestic vacation capitals to secure the number-one spot worldwide.

Why Bali Mastered the Multi-Gen Equation

The biggest headache of a multi-generational trip is trying to keep an energetic teenager entertained at the exact same time a grandparent is looking to slow down and relax. According to Kuoda's data, Bali achieved a perfect index score of 100 because it natively possesses the exact infrastructure required to balance those contrasting needs.

The island boasts an impressive 43 top-tier luxury family resorts, offering extended families the space to spread out by booking sprawling private villas or interconnected suites under a single roof. For parents and grandparents looking to unwind, the study tracked a staggering 1,452 adult-focused relaxation and entertainment activities across the island, ranging from world-class cliffside wellness spas to upscale coastal fine dining.

Crucially, the destination keeps younger travelers completely captivated without relying on standard arcade rooms. Bali features 235 dedicated children's attractions, allowing families to easily map out days filled with private cooking classes, traditional cultural performances, water parks, and visits to local elephant sanctuaries.

The Top Five Global Contenders

While Bali took home top honors, Kuoda’s data highlighted four other exceptional international landscapes that successfully cracked the multi-generational code:

• 2. Tuscany, Italy (Index Score: 85): Taking the second-place slot, Tuscany offers 49 luxury family resorts tucked into rolling hills. It serves up nearly 1,200 adult activities like private vineyard tastings and historic art tours, but nicely balances them with nearly 200 child-friendly experiences like hands-on gelato making, interactive pasta-cooking classes, and family agritourism farm stays.
• 3. Male, Maldives (Index Score: 73): For families who want to relax without constantly watching the final bill, the Maldives ranks third and boasts the highest density of luxury resorts on the list with 90 properties. The islands feature incredible overwater spas for adults alongside 73 youth attractions, including dedicated kids' clubs and guided snorkeling excursions for young swimmers.
• 4. Riviera Maya, Mexico (Index Score: 72): Packing 36 luxury coastal resorts, this Caribbean hotspot offers over 800 adult retreats alongside 147 eco-adventure experiences tailored for kids, including the famous Xcaret Park and natural cenote swims. It also holds the second-highest safety score in the top five.
• 5. Algarve, Portugal (Index Score: 68): Rounding out the top five, Portugal’s southern coast features 38 luxury resorts and stands out as the safest overall destination in the top tier. Adults can look forward to cliffside spas and championship golf courses, while children can enjoy boat tours through sea caves and calm, family-friendly beaches.

The Art of a Seamless Family Trip

As seasoned family travelers know, a great vacation requires far more than just a beautiful hotel room; it requires flawless, stress-free logistical coordination behind the scenes. At the bottom of Kuoda’s rankings, otherwise beautiful destinations like Anguilla and Belle Mare fell short simply because they lacked a diverse variety of activities to keep younger travelers engaged throughout an extended stay.

"A multigenerational trip only works when every generation feels like the day was designed for them," a luxury travel expert from Kuoda noted in the report. "Private drivers who know exactly when to stop for a bathroom break. Hotels that can connect two suites without making anyone walk down a hallway in their pajamas. Guides who can keep a teenager engaged while also slowing down for grandparents."

Ultimately, the secret to stepping away from the standard theme park routine is leaning into destinations that do the heavy lifting for you. "A family does not just need a resort in Bali," the Kuoda expert added. "They need someone to book the cooking class for the kids and the spa for the parents at the same time, then arrange a driver to bring everyone back together for sunset. That coordination is invisible when it works and impossible to ignore when it does not." If you are ready to trade the standard vacation club routine for a meaningful global adventure, looking toward the rich culture and effortless luxury of the Indonesian coast might just be the ultimate upgrade your family is looking for.

Have you ever noticed that the first burst of warm weather makes every outdoor space feel full of potential? That tiny patio you ignored all winter now seems perfect as a morning coffee spot. The backyard becomes an outdoor dining room, movie theater and relaxation zone all at once. Even if you don't have a resort-style pool, creating a comfortable place to unwind outside doesn't have to involve a major makeover.

The reality is, the best outdoor purchases tend to be the ones that make you use your space more often. And if a simple chair can turn a patch of grass, patio or balcony into your favorite spot to spend an afternoon, that's a pretty good return on investment.

If your outdoor space is more cozy patio than sprawling estate, Aldi's Belavi Folding Lounge Chair feels designed with that reality in mind. Measuring 74.4 inches long, it gives you plenty of room to stretch out, but the real selling point is that it folds up when you're done, making it a lot easier to stash away in a garage corner, closet or against a wall when space is tight.

For those who really want to rest while they soak up the sun, the lounge chair's four-way adjustable backrest lets you switch between sitting up with a book and fully embracing nap mode. Meanwhile, the integrated pillow adds a little extra comfort without needing to drag extra cushions outside. It also has a built-in carry handle, which makes moving it around your space much less awkward. Available in gray or taupe, the colorways have that simple, neutral look that won't compete with the rest of your outdoor setup.

I've been an Aldi fan for a long time, but lately it really seems to be stepping up its game in terms of outdoor offerings. From really lovely sun catchers to gorgeous $15 patio rugs, there's a lot happening in the Aldi Finds aisle right now to help you give your outdoor hangout a budget-friendly boost. And if you're the handy type, definitely don't sleep on the chain's 105-piece tool kit that's perfect for tackling summer projects before taking a nap in this lounge chair. That sounds like a solid summer day to us.

Jason Kelceand Travis Kelceare launching a brand-new collaboration today, and it's the perfect purchase for Kelce fans looking to elevate their footwear this summer or anyone looking for a unique, high-quality gift this Father's Day.

In partnership with the Kelce brothers' fan-favorite podcast, New Heights with Jason & Travis Kelce, handcrafted, Hawaiian-inspired footwear brand OluKai has just launched the Mea Ola Nu‘u sandal.

The Mea Ola Nu‘u sandal draws inspiration from Jason and Travis' NFL careers by using full-grain leathers in its premium leather design—a callback to classic pigskin footballs. The sandals also feature Jason and Travis' signatures in gold foil, decorative stitching and a "New Heights Equipment Co." stamp.

NewHeights x OluKai

OluKai

The Mea Ola Nu‘u sandals, which will be available in men's sizing, retail for $160 and can be purchased at KelceClubhouse.com or OluKai.com starting today and in OluKai retail stores beginning on June 9.

This new collaboration comes on the heels of some other new business ventures for the Kelce brothers, including a recently released western film featuring Kylie Kelce, The Last True Cold One, in connection with Garage Beer, the beer company the brothers co-own together.

Of course, when it comes to the Kelce family, there is currently one major question on most fans' minds, and that's whether Travis and Taylor Swiftwill be tying the knot this summer. Unsurprisingly, the happy couple has been keeping their wedding details under wraps, although it is heavily rumored that they will be getting married this summer.

Swifties and other internet sleuths have been paying attention to every detail, down to the NYPD possibly dropping hints, as well as comments from various celebrities about whether they've been invited, with Maisie Peters, who briefly opened for Swift on her iconic Eras Tour, saying she hasn't received an invite and Queer Eye alum Antoni Porowski avoiding the question entirely.

Swift is famously a mastermind, though, so the public shouldn't expect actual details until the megastar is ready to share them, if that day ever comes.

Carlos Santana, the legendary guitarist and musician, is ramping up the excitement for fans ahead of his upcoming tour.

The 78-year-old icon shows no signs of slowing down as he continues delivering high-octane performances for the Oneness Tour.

Following the success of the tour in 2024 and 2025, the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductee is hitting the road once again this year for multiple-city stops on the North American Summer Tour.

Along with fellow rock and roll icons The Doobie Brothers, the forthcoming event just got expanded.

In an Instagram update, Santana announced the extension of the run with one more show due to popular demand.

“Due to overwhelming demand after two sold-out shows, Santana is returning to the iconic @redrocksco for a third and final night!” the caption reads, with a new show date in Colorado scheduled for Aug. 24. Tickets will officially go on sale on June 5 at 10 a.m. MT.

The Oneness 2026 Tour, headlined by Santana and The Doobie Brothers, will kick off its 29-date run on June 13 in Illinois and cover a list of states including Michigan, Ohio, Indiana, Virginia, California and more before concluding in Minnesota on Aug. 27.

The upcoming summer tour isn't the first time that the legends have taken the stage together. In fact, in 2019, the "What a Fool Believes" hitmakers appeared as special guests on Santana’s Supernatural Now Tour.
