Ryanair Passenger Nearly Sucked Out of Plane Window On Flight From Greece

Fri, 07/10/2026 - 12:26pm

A passenger on Ryanair was sucked halfway out of a window on Friday, July 10, during a flight from Greece to Germany.

The man was pulled out, head-first, after the window broke shortly after takeoff and was up to his shoulder, according to Greek public broadcaster ERT. Other passengers held him down, stopping him from being dragged out the window any further.

The plane was forced to return to Thessaloniki in Greece, where the man was treated for shock and other injuries, ERT reported. Other passengers were transferred to another flight.

“A Ryanair flight from Thessaloniki to Memmingen on Friday morning (10 July) returned to Thessaloniki shortly after take-off when a passenger window dislodged inflight. The aircraft landed normally, and passengers returned to the terminal," a statement from Ryanair to CNN said. “One passenger requested and received medical assistance on the ground in Thessaloniki. In order to minimise any delay, a replacement aircraft was arranged to bring passengers to Memmingen, which departed Thessaloniki at 9:53 local this morning.”

CNN further reports that an investigation has been launched by the Hellenic Air and Rail Safety Investigation Authority (HARSIA).

A few passengers spoke with Radio Thessaloniki about the incident.

"When the oxygen masks dropped, we had no idea what was going to happen. We didn't know whether we would make it back. We were sitting at the back of the aircraft, and we realised there had been some kind of explosion," a passenger named Sofia said. "We thought the plane was going down. The decompression was extreme. It felt like we couldn't breathe. The man who was injured was bleeding and then lost consciousness several times, most likely because of the lack of oxygen and the shock."

"We immediately realised there had been a decompression. There were screams... for a moment I thought someone had accidentally opened the emergency door," another passenger named Christina added. "The masks dropped, and there was a strong smell. The head and shoulders of one passenger were outside the window. Fortunately, he hadn't taken off his seat belt."

Test Your Knowledge of ‘90s Women in Music With Olivia Rodrigo on This Game Show

Fri, 07/10/2026 - 12:21pm

Olivia Rodrigo turned a Jeopardy! guest spot into a love letter to the women who shaped her. The pop star appeared on the latest episode to introduce a special “Women in Music” category, teasing that the clues would spotlight “some of the amazing singers who have inspired me.” Rodrigo went on to reference Beyoncé, Gwen Stefani, Alanis Morissette, St. Vincent, and Sarah McLachlan’s all-female Lilith Fair festival; each one tied to a defining moment in her own musical journey.

For her Beyoncé clue, Rodrigo pointed to the superstar’s 2010 Grammys performance of “If I Were a Boy,” which she said she watched “over and over.” It’s a moment she’s referenced before. (*In a 2022 interview with People, she recalled watching it roughly 25 times, adding that she hoped to one day inspire a younger fan the same way.)

Rodrigo’s Stefani clue leaned on their shared California roots, but the connection runs deeper. She joined Stefani onstage in June during No Doubt’s Sphere residency in Las Vegas, after holding up a sign requesting “the last hug at the last Sphere show.” The two also performed “Bathwater” together at Coachella in 2024.

Her nod to Alanis Morissette was more direct, calling the singer-songwriter her “icon” and crediting Jagged Little Pill with changing her life - echoing sentiments she shared in 2021, when she and Morissette appeared together on this magazine’s Musicians on Musicians cover.

Indoor furniture has mastered the art of multitasking. Futons turn into beds, sleeper sofas create extra space for overnight guests, and recliners adjust to your perfect position. So why should outdoor furniture be any different? Not every backyard hangout calls for the same setup. Some days, you need a comfortable place to stretch out with a book, while other days, you need extra seating for friends.

That’s where the Costway Convertible Wicker Patio Sofa at Target comes in. Designed to transform into three different layouts based on how you want to use your space, it brings indoor-style flexibility outdoors. Best of all, it’s currently marked down 59%, dropping the price from $370 to just $153.

With adjustable armrests and sturdy metal hinges, this sofa can shift from a two-person loveseat for morning coffee into a chaise lounge for reading a book, or even a fully flat daybed for soaking in the sun. The frame is wrapped in hand-woven mixed gray faux rattan, creating the textured look of traditional wicker while offering better resistance against fading and sun exposure. 

Inside, the cushions are filled with quick-dry foam that is designed to stay breathable and comfortable while allowing moisture to move through more easily after unexpected weather. The combination makes it a practical choice for spaces like patios, pool decks, balconies, and porches where furniture needs to handle everything from sunny afternoons to passing showers.

Built with a heavy-duty metal structure, this convertible sofa can support up to 660 pounds. Details like adjustable footpads help keep the sofa stable on different surfaces, while fixing clips and reinforced hinges help secure each configuration when you switch between lounging modes. Measuring 23 inches deep, 64 inches long in its compact loveseat setup, and extending to 70 inches long when converted into a chaise or daybed, it provides plenty of room to stretch out without overwhelming smaller outdoor areas.

Shoppers praised this “affordable, sturdy, and durable” sofa in the reviews section, calling it “suitable for all spaces.” One shopper wrote, “This patio sofa is an absolute steal! It’s soft and supportive.” That same person gushed that they are “already daydreaming about summer nights under the stars, snuggling in this stylish and cozy seat.”

Additional appearances already confirmed for the group include shows in Germany, the Netherlands, Belgium, the United Kingdom, Italy, Austria, Hungary, Poland and the Czech Republic later in the year.

Suffocation are also scheduled to appear at Sonic Temple in Columbus, Ohio, and Welcome to Rockville in Daytona Beach, Florida during the 2026 festival season.

The band was formed in 1989 in Centereach, New York, and became one of the defining names in death metal during the early 1990s. Their 1991 debut album, Effigy of the Forgotten, is widely recognized as one of the genre's landmark releases and helped shape technical death metal for future generations of bands.

The current lineup features guitarist Terrance Hobbs, bassist Derek Boyer, guitarist Charlie Errigo and vocalist Ricky Myers.

The tour announcement comes several months after drummer Eric Morotti exited the band after ten years as a member.

Morotti announced his departure in April, writing:

"Today. On my. Birthday. I have chosen to step away from Suffocation to prolong my health, myself. My integrity. I will not work with toxic. Abusive drug addicts. Let alone allow them to boss me around. I've been belittled and stepped all over for too long."

Suffocation later issued a response disputing those claims and stated that the decision to part ways was made by the band because of scheduling conflicts, as shared by Metal Insider.

The group said:

"Last week, the decision was made by Suffocation to part ways with Eric Morotti due to his conflicting schedule with Sanguisugabogg, which affected Suffocation's schedule for the year."

The statement continued:

"It is unfortunate that Eric decided to falsify claims and take this to a negative place forcing us to make this statement. Regardless, we wish him nothing but the best of luck on his future endeavors."

Following Morotti's departure, Suffocation announced that Origin drummer John Longstreth would join the band as a special guest performer for select 2026 appearances.

With a packed touring calendar and a new European headline run now confirmed, Suffocation are preparing for another busy year on the road nearly four decades after first forming on Long Island.

Watch Tommy Lee and Joe Rogan Lose It Over Rick Springfield’s Viral Shirtless Performance of ‘Jessie’s Girl’

Fri, 07/10/2026 - 11:54am

Tommy Lee recently appeared on Joe Rogan’s ‘The Joe Rogan Experience’ podcast, and both of these celebs went nuts over an unexpected performance. 

Obviously, the Motley Crue drummer had plenty to say about music and performers. But it was Rogan who brought up an ‘80s icon. The host took out his phone and said to Lee, “You want to see something f***ing inspirational? I’m going to show you something crazy…Have you seen Rick Springfield lately? I’m going to send you a video, and it’s going to blow you away. This is literally bananas.”

He continues, “This is Rick Springfield. He’s 76-years-old. 76. 76 and he’s singing ‘Jessie’s Girl’ like he just wrote it.”

And what is Lee’s response to the now-viral clip of a shirtless Springfield on stage? Two simple words…”He’s ripped!”

As the Springfield frenzy grows, Rogan adds, “First of all, he looks f***ing incredible. Like he’s working out every day or something. I mean, I don’t even understand it. He looks like a 30-year-old guy. And he’s singing the song like he just wrote it. Bro, 76…That’s crazy.”

After watching more of Springfield’s absolutely jaw-dropping performance, Lee says, “That’s inspirational.” Rogan agrees, sharing, “The passion and enthusiasm is what kills me. This is not a guy who’s just like going out there and going through the motions. He’s singing that song like he just wrote it.”

But the Rick Springfield fan fest doesn’t end there. Rogan keeps on going, “A lot of people when they’re 76 are basically waiting to die. This dude’s on stage with no shirt on, crushing life.”

And if you’re wondering what Lee thinks life will be like in his mid-70’s, the 63-year-old tells Rogan, “I love it. I love it. That’s gonna be me still 10 years from now.”

He added, “I remember in the ‘80s, there were no old rock stars. Like no one was out there touring who was an old rock star.  And then the Stones released a new album. I think it was like ‘88 or ‘89, and everybody was like, ‘Wow, they’re going to tour again?’ It was almost like, ‘Aren’t they done with this?’ Like, they’re older now. And then it started being a thing, where a bunch of older gyts would like go out on tour that hadn’t been on tour in a while. And now it’s like, ‘Why are we retiring? Like why would I stop doing the most amazing thing that a human being ever gets to do?” 

Lee replied, “That’s the best man, you gotta love that. And I think that, I don’t know, if you call it a resurgence or just that style of, like, there’s certain things that were really great that have stood the test of time.”

Tommy Lee and Joe Rogan aren't the only ones who were totally fanning out over Springfield’s performance. When the musician shared a clip of the now-legendary shirtless rendition of ‘Jessie’s Girl’ on his Instagram page, fans flocked to the post, losing it over the 76-year-old and writing comments such as, “Only time I’d consider a 70-year-old as a 50-year-old, definitely optimizing life! Shows passion is everything!”, “Amazing. His voice sounds great too! “ All the jealous Rick haters of the 80’s, take that!” and “Good lord, he’s hotter than ever!” Goes to show age doesn’t mean a thing!”

’80s Rock Legend Joins Supergroup Amid 2026 North America Tour

Fri, 07/10/2026 - 11:37am

Grammy Award-winning singer and Living Colour frontman Corey Glover has officially joined the all-star collective One Tribe Nation, giving the Los Angeles-based group one of rock's most recognizable voices as it prepares for its next chapter and a busy live schedule in 2026.

The new lineup will make its Los Angeles debut on July 25 during The Bluesadelic Sessions Live at The Den Studios, marking the first local appearance for the expanded band and offering fans an early look at material from One Tribe Nation's upcoming third studio album, Estado Dorado.

Led by guitarist and musical director Michael Sanders, the group will perform original songs alongside new interpretations of music by Living Colour, Santana, Curtis Mayfield and Sly & The Family Stone.

The partnership between Sanders and Glover began through a shared interest in songwriting. According to the band, Glover heard one of Sanders's unfinished songs through a mutual friend and immediately connected with the material. The pair later wrote several songs together and recorded new music, creating the foundation for One Tribe Nation's newest era.

"As a young black rock kid, those guys were gods to us," says Sanders, per Blabbermouth. "Working with Corey has been one of those surreal full-circle moments. The first song we wrote together sounded like we'd been making music together for years."

For Glover, joining One Tribe Nation adds another chapter to a career that stretches back more than four decades.

The Brooklyn-born singer became the voice of Living Colour in 1985 after being recruited by guitarist Vernon Reid. The band's 1988 debut album Vivid became a major success and helped establish Living Colour as one of the defining rock acts of the late 1980s.

Their hit song "Cult of Personality" earned a Grammy Award for Best Hard Rock Performance and introduced audiences to the band's mix of rock, funk, jazz and soul influences.

Since then, Glover has built a career that stretches well beyond Living Colour. He has released solo music, worked with numerous artists across genres, toured with the funk group Galactic and appeared in projects including the 1986 film Platoon.

In 2025, Glover was inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame for his work with Living Colour.

The singer has remained active throughout 2026 while also discussing progress on Living Colour's long-awaited seventh studio album, which will be the band's first release since 2017's Shade.

"We've written a few things and we've recorded a few things. Personally, I'm not satisfied just yet," Glover said during an appearance on SiriusXM's Trunk Nation With Eddie Trunk.

"We need to really go in there and sort of sit down and concentrate on making a record," he said. "And once we do that, I think we'll be good. I don't know when that's gonna be or how that's gonna work, but I can't wait for it to happen."

While Glover's arrival gives One Tribe Nation additional star power, the project was designed as a true ensemble rather than a featured-artist collaboration.

The lineup includes former Whitesnake bassist Uriah Duffy, two-time Grammy-winning percussionist Christian Pepin, veteran keyboardist Dave Schulz, drummer David Cowan and vocalist Ben Thomas.

Together, the musicians bring experience from rock, Latin music, jazz, funk, soul and pop projects that span several decades.

One Tribe Nation says its performances are built around community, musicianship and cultural diversity, combining Afro-Latin rhythms with rock, jazz and soul influences in a live setting designed to connect audiences across generations, according to Sonic Perspective.

The July 25 performance will also provide the first public preview of songs from Estado Dorado, which is scheduled for release later this year.

DJ Khaled is showing off his dramatic weight loss.

The music titan, 50, known for hits like "I'm So Hood" and "All I Do Is Win," has frequently been featured working out on his social media accounts lately.

Showing Off His Transformation

Back in February, Khaled took to Instagram to show a dramatic before-and-after post of his dramatic weight loss.

“You either win with us or you watch us win,” he captioned the photo. “I’m just getting started.“

In his Instagram Stories, Khaled shared a photo of himself on the golf course, adding that he was slimming down while playing the sport, as well as getting 15,000 steps a day.

“Walk and golf,” he wrote. “I want the weight off and it’s coming off!”

“I’m about to show up to greatness,” he said in another clip, PEOPLE reported. “And once you show up, you gotta put in that work. It’s 10-15,000 steps a day, just like I said. I’ve been doing 15-20 a day, but as long as you get to 10-15, you’re starting off your day incredibly. And everything after that is a bonus. Remember that!”

DJ Khaled Starred in a Wegovy Commercial

You may remember that Khaled appeared alongside several other stars in a Super Bowl commercial for the Wegovy weight-loss pill.

In a statement, he said, "I know what it’s like to go hard in the gym, eat clean, stay disciplined – put in that work every single day, but still not see the results you want. I knew I wanted to work with Novo Nordisk because I’m a father, I’m a husband, and I want to be the best for my family. When you’re trying to reach your goals and you’re looking for something more, having an option like Wegovy pill – that’s powerful."

John Stamos Says ‘Full House’ Could Have Been Very Different With the Original Danny Tanner

Fri, 07/10/2026 - 11:08am

John Stamos opened up about an original version of Full House that never made it to air— with a different Danny Tanner, the beloved character eventually played by Bob Saget.

During a July 2026 appearance on Bobby Bones’ podcast The Bobbycast, Stamos, who played Full House hunk Jesse Katsopolis for eight seasons, recalled shooting the pilot for the ABCsitcom with actor John Posey in the role of the Tanner family patriarch.

Soon after ABC picked up the series and told Posey he had the job, he was replaced by Saget, seemingly out of the blue, and an entirely new pilot was shot.

Stamos admitted it was a messy situation as it unfolded.

“I think I felt bad for the guy,” he said of Posey. "But it wasn’t like... we didn’t know what the show was going to be. The show wasn’t a hit for the first season. It wasn’t like, ‘Oh, that guy’s really losing out on something.’ We were just shooting a pilot, and we didn’t really know what we had.”

“And I think, you know, the chemistry of the show …I don’t know if the show would have been the same with the original guy, obviously. But it was a little weird,” Stamos added of the hit series.

RELATED: ‘Happy Days’ Guest Star’s 1978 Debut Changed Everything

Full House aired from 1987 to 1995 and was part of ABC’s popular TGIF lineup on Friday nights. The beloved family-themed series centered on Saget’s Danny Tanner, a widowed father of three who raises his daughters with the help of his brother-in-law (Stamos) and best friend (Dave Coulier).

Posey went on to roles inDallas, Cheers, Teen Wolf, and more, but he never forgot that he was almost Danny Tanner—for one episode, anyway.

In 2014, Posey told Yahoo! Entertainment he was approached to shoot the Full House pilot after an ABC talent scout spotted him in a comedy show.

"In all honesty, if somebody were to ask me now, I have no idea whether I was good in that pilot or not,” he admitted. “But overall I thought everything was pretty decent. And the show went. [ABC] picked it up with me, and everything was fine, until about a month or so later when I heard otherwise. … I get a phone call… and it was my agent saying, 'I don't know what's going on, but for some reason they're testing Bob Saget.' And I said, 'What are you talking about? Why would they do that?'”

“It seemed like everything was fine,” he noted. “We shot it. I learned as much as I could in a short period of time. And next thing I know... 'Hey, you're no longer employed.'"

RELATED: Danny Bonaduce Shares Details of On Set Clash That Got ‘Partridge Family’ Star Fired

Posey later found out that Saget and Paul Reiser were two actors originally wanted for the Danny Tanner role, but both were obligated to other shows.

"I guess something opened up for him,” Posey added of Saget. “Maybe he was fired from something, I think, and suddenly he was available. And I guess the executive producer talked ABC into allowing him to re-shoot. So that was the end of that."

Posey added that the Danny Tanner switcheroo was hardest on Candace Cameron and Jodie Sweetin, two of the young actresses who played his daughters in the pilot and would go on play Saget’s character’s daughters for eight subsequent seasons.

“I know that the young girls were all a little bit shattered when it happened, because we developed a pretty good relationship,” Posey shared. “Candace, she was very upset that [it] fell apart. It was hard for the kids to have to do this all over again with somebody they didn't know."

Country Star, With No. 1 Hit Song, Announces News Amid 2026 Tour

Fri, 07/10/2026 - 11:04am

Zach Bryan has announced a new EP while continuing his massive 2026 international tour, giving fans fresh music to look forward to before the end of the year.

The country singer-songwriter recently revealed on YouTube that his upcoming project will be titled Young Manhood and Other Donatable Organs. The announcement arrived alongside a new teaser for the unreleased song "Lodi When," marking the latest preview from the project.

Bryan shared only limited details about the EP and did not provide a release date. However, the timing of the announcement and his recent online activity suggest new music could arrive sooner rather than later.

The Oklahoma native has already previewed several songs connected to the project, including "Breakfast in Bed," "Better Friends" and "Lodi When." Fans have also speculated that additional unreleased tracks such as "You'll Get By" and "Pocket Change" could eventually appear on the record.

In "Lodi When," Bryan reflects on a former relationship and earlier chapters of his life.

"He made a big mess of all the songs he wrote/ He’d sing to you come daylight, but die before he woke."

The song continues with one of its most talked-about lines:

"If you could write a book on the man that you once were / Would you write about drinking / Or would you write about her / If you could just go back to the places you once been / Would you go back to her arms, back to Lodi when."

The EP announcement comes during a short break in Bryan's busy With Heaven on Tour schedule.

The tour began in March and has already included sold-out performances across the United States and Europe. Stadium stops have included Bank of America Stadium, Raymond James Stadium and Memorial Stadium, while overseas dates have taken Bryan through the United Kingdom, Spain, Germany, Denmark, Ireland and the Netherlands.

The tour resumes later this month with a July 24 show in Eugene, Oregon, before moving to San Diego, Salt Lake City, Denver, Arlington, Glendale, Toronto, Foxborough and Auburn, Alabama.

Bryan's final scheduled performance of the tour is set for Oct. 10 in Auburn.

The singer has remained productive during his break from touring, using YouTube to preview material instead of following a traditional album rollout.

Along with "Lodi When," Bryan recently posted a full performance of another unreleased track, "Better Friends."

Before those releases, Bryan shared "Breakfast in Bed," another song that fans believe could appear on the upcoming EP.

The announcement arrives during one of the biggest years of Bryan's career.

His sixth studio album, With Heaven on Top, debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 earlier this year after selling 130,000 units during its first week. Eighteen songs from the project also reached the Billboard Hot 100.

Bryan later released a full acoustic version of the album only days after the original arrived.

The singer, who first broke through with the hit "Something in the Orange," earned his first Billboard Hot 100 No. 1 single in 2023 with "I Remember Everything" featuring Kacey Musgraves. The song also topped the Hot Country Songs chart and earned Bryan a Grammy Award for Best Country Duo/Group Performance.

Earlier in 2026, Bryan announced he had started a sobriety journey and later married Samantha Sebastian on New Year's Eve.

His recent return to Instagram after previously deactivating the account has also fueled fan speculation that an official release announcement may be close.

Bryan has built a reputation for surprise releases and unconventional rollouts, often sharing songs directly with fans before officially releasing them.

For now, Young Manhood and Other Donatable Organs remains without a release date, but with multiple songs already circulating online and Bryan back on social media, anticipation continues to grow among fans waiting for his next project.

Netflix's 'Little House on the Prairie' Showrunner Reveals the Hardest Scene to Adapt — and Why She Rewrote It (Exclusive)

Fri, 07/10/2026 - 11:03am

When the news was announced that Netflix would be doing its own version of Little House on the Prairie, it came with expectations as heavy as all the supplies the Ingalls brought with them on their journey west. The hit novel series by Laura Ingalls Wilder has been one of the most popular book franchises of all time, and the 70s and 80s brought frontier life to our screens with the iconic TV series starring Melissa Gilbert and Michael Landon.

There's a lot weighing on this version of Little House, considering how much it has made an impression on people both on page and screen. And that is certainly the case for showrunner Rebecca Sonnenshine.

"I read all the books; I read them over and over again," she reveals to Parade in an exclusive interview. "They were kind of part of my personality. So I think I've actually been planning this my whole life. It's my dream. It kind of inspired me to become a writer and a filmmaker. These books are so vivid that they really created a movie in my mind as a kid. So I can thank Little House on the Prairie for sort of setting me onto my path in life."

That path includes a number of impressive credits for Sonnenshine, including The Vampire Diaries, The Boys and most recently the screenplay for the hit horror filmThe Housemaid. But now she's circling the wagons back to her original inspiration, bringing a new adaptation of the Ingalls and their adventures out west in Kansas. But, despite her extreme familiarity with the source material, she's also not afraid to take some liberties, including crafting brand-new storylines for the other residents of the town of Independence.

Sonnenshine talks with Parade about the scene she had the most difficulty adapting to the screen, creating new plots outside of the Ingalls family, and what to expect from the already-renewed Season 2.

How did you come up with the idea to create your own version of Little House on the Prairie?
It is an incredibly important television series to a lot of people. I fell in love with the books when I was five years old. My cousin gave me her extra copy of it, because I proved to her that I could read, and it sort of set me on this path of being a Little House on the Prairie sort of completist. I read all the books; I read them over and over again. They were kind of part of my personality. When I was misbehaving, my mom would ground me by taking away my books.

So I think I've actually been planning this my whole life. It's my dream. It kind of inspired me to become a writer and a filmmaker. These books are so vivid that they really created a movie in my mind as a kid. So I can thank Little House on the Prairie for sort of setting me onto my path in life.

What was the most difficult part about adapting Little House from page to screen?
Oh my gosh, that is a good question. I think the scene that we worked on the most was when the Osage came into the house, actually. Because we wanted to reframe it from what it was in the books, and we had a lot of discussions about it, and what it would look like, and how we would portray it. And I think we were successful. I'm very happy with what we came to. But it's a huge part of the book, and we wanted to include it, but by sort of shifting the perspective of it.

Talk to me more about that. While the book is obviously from a very specific perspective, the TV series chooses to highlight more of an ensemble around town. There's new storylines around the Osage family, for instance. Dr. Tann and Emily have their own romance. Did you come into this entire process aiming to showcase the characters outside of the Ingalls family?
Yes, absolutely. The books are a little bit limited in their POV, because they're very much through Laura's eyes, which of course we want to absolutely portray in this series. But also we wanted to widen out a little bit and provide some historical context, provide truly fully-realized characters that may have been just a moment in the book, or referred to as something unknowable.

I think one of the great things about adapting a work is that you kind of can make some of the unknowables known to people and really open up this lens on who's who. How did America become America? Who are the people who ended up settling the frontier? Who were the people who already lived on the frontier? It's an interesting question, and I think the time for it now is exciting. Because we have so much information, right, and we have so much new understanding of the world. It's great to bring our characters into that.

Showrunner Rebecca Sonnenshine reveals that the scene where the Osage enter the Ingalls household was the hardest to write in the 'Little House on the Prairie' reboot, saying, 'We wanted to reframe it from what it was in the books, and we had a lot of discussions about it, and what it would look like, and how we would portray it.'

At the beginning of the series, we get a bit of a mystery behind why the Ingalls family left Wisconsin. And, through some flashbacks and fever dreams, we find out it was due to the death of Charles's brother George, and him subsequently getting the blame. Talk to me about incorporating this into the story.
We wanted to have a sort of rich and textured family life that they had left behind. It was inspired by Little House in the Big Woods. There is a character of Uncle George, who is his younger brother. He's portrayed in that book as still wearing his uniform and blowing his bugle. He was a drummer boy in the war and as a kid that seems like, "Oh, that's so fun." And as an adult you think feels like maybe that person has some trauma from the war.

And so that's kind of it was definitely inspired by those scenes from the book in Little House in the Big Woods. And then wanting to talk a little bit about the aftermath of the Civil War, and what people were going through, and the discovery of what we would call PTSD, now labeled as melancholia, and tying that into a family secret. It just kind of hit so many great elements that we wanted to explore.

We need to get into how Season 1 ended. We know that Season 2 has already been confirmed. So are we just heading straight to Plum Creek and Walnut Grove?
Yeah. The last scene of the season, you know that they're headed for Walnut Grove and the Olsen General Store, and that they're going to meet those characters. The next season is on the banks of Plum Creek, and it's really exciting.

It should be noted that Edwards is the only person besides the Ingalls family who goes from Kansas to Minnesota. Given what you mentioned earlier about wanting to flesh out the cast of characters, is there a chance we'll see anyone else from Season 1 show up in Walnut Grove?
This show, I hope, runs a long time. And we had such an extraordinary cast. All of those characters were so special and delightful and wonderful, great actors, great people. We don't know. I think that the hope always is that everybody is part of the family now. The Ingalls move around a lot, so you don't know who they're gonna run into!

3 New Netflix Shows You Need to Binge This Weekend (July 10-12, 2026)

Fri, 07/10/2026 - 11:00am

Keeping up with everything on Netflix is almost like fighting the mythical Hydra. Every time you finish a show, three more seem to pop up in its place. But it's that seemingly unlimited well of content that has made it the most popular streamer today, even amidst the numerous amount of competition. And so, at the end of every week, we kick up our feet, grab the remote, and listen for that classic "tudum" sound as we dive into Netflix's voluminous library.

Luckily for you, Parade has flagged three new shows coming to Netflix this week that can become your new binge obsession! Here's what you need to check out this weekend (July 10-12, 2026).

Believe it or not, 30 years ago, one of the most popular catchphrases out there was a simple, "Bam!" That was the calling card of Emeril Lagasse, a chef who kicked cooking shows up a notch with his combination of delicious food and bombastic energy. His unique style proved an instant hit with both his live studio audience and people watching from home, making him one of the most famous chefs in the world in the late '90s and early 2000s. Now, Emeril heads to Netflix with the debut season of Emeril Cooks, where he welcomes in a veritable buffet of New Orleans chefs, restaraunteurs and celebrities to talk about the local cuisine. It's a delectible deep dive into Creole cuisine that will have you hitting "Next episode" on your remote with a passionate "Bam!"

One of the great things about Netflix is not only the wealth of new shows released weekly, but also the ever-growing repository of shows from the past. Indeed, over the years, many long-forgotten series that received little attention in their original runs have found a second life on streaming. Perhaps The Tick will join that list. Based on the hit comic book of the same name, The Tick was a 2001 FOX show that parodied superhero culture long before The Incredibles or The Boys. Starring Patrick Warburton as the titular hero, the show essentially served as a superheroic Seinfeld, known for trading more witty one-liners than punches. Alas, due to its very competitive time slot, The Tick was canceled after only nine episodes, but now the show is available in its entirety on Netflix. So stay away from the ticks outside by checking out The Tick on your couch!

For over a decade, viewers were obsessed with the life and times of the Ingalls family on Little House on the Prairie. Based on the iconic book series by Laura Ingalls Wilder, we were taken back a century, watching the trials and tribulations that came with living a “simpler” life on the frontier. Now, Wilder’s work gets brought into the 21st century, as a new adaptation of Little House has come to Netflix. Based on her third book of the same name, which also served as the pilot movie of the original series, the new version comes courtesy of Rebecca Sonnenshine, who recently broke out with her screenplay of The Housemaid. But, even though Little House on the Prairie is now in the streaming era, don’t expect any gruesome bloodshed, or curse words coming out of Laura’s (Alice Halsey) mouth.

It's one of the few chances to see The Killers in concert in 2026, as frontman Brandon Flowerspreviously announced a solo headlining tour across the UK, Ireland and North America in support of his upcoming album, Trasher.

It's the original night race, which takes place on the Marina Bay Street Circuit, and is considered one of the most physically demanding races due to its tricky street layout running through downtown Singapore.

The Killers aren't new to the F1 circuit, as they previously took the stage at the Formula 1 Las Vegas Grand Prix 2023 launch party on November 05, 2022, in Las Vegas, Nevada.

The 1980 Wimbledon Final With an Unforgettable 22-Minute Tiebreak Still Stands Among the Greatest Ever

Fri, 07/10/2026 - 10:54am

Wimbledon 2026 is delivering some of the sport’s most epic tennis matches, but the 1980 men’s Wimbledon final remains one of the most unforgettable moments in sports history. The five-set John McEnroe vs. Björn Borg classic featured a 22-minute, 18-16 fourth-set tiebreak and remains one of the defining moments of the era for diehard tennis fans and casual viewers alike. This was no ordinary Grand Slam final; it was the culmination of one of the greatest rivalries in sports. A new ranking names it the greatest moment in Wimbledon history. Rewatching the epic showdown, it’s easy to see why.

The 1980 Wimbledon Final That Defined a Generation

When John McEnroe and Björn Borg stepped onto the grass for the men’s Wimbledon final on July 5, 1980, anticipation for the showdown between two tennis icons had reached a fever pitch. This wasn’t just a battle for a championship; it pitted the fiery American against the ice-cool Swede in what would become one of the greatest tennis matches ever played.

Fans had come to expect—and even delight in—McEnroe’s animated arguments with officials and relentless competitiveness. His clash with one of the calmest players the sport had ever seen captivated audiences around the world and turned casual viewers into lifelong tennis fans.

How the Borg-McEnroe Rivalry Changed Tennis

This match was about more than tennis. The global popularity of each player was immense, but together their rivalry elevated men’s tennis to new heights during the late 1970s and early 1980s. The 1980 men’s Wimbledon final became the defining chapter of their rivalry and one of the most-watched sporting events of the year.

Although McEnroe saved championship point and captured an unforgettable 18-16 fourth-set tiebreak that lasted 22 minutes, Borg recovered to win the fifth set and claim his fifth consecutive Wimbledon singles title. The two would meet again later that year in the U.S. Open final, where McEnroe earned his revenge with a five-set victory. Still, it is the 1980 Wimbledon final that remains the defining moment of their rivalry, an iconic match whose popularity and impact transcended the sport.

Why the 1980 Wimbledon Final Still Matters

More than four decades later, the 1980 Wimbledon final remains the benchmark against which great tennis matches are measured. Regularly revisited in documentaries, highlight reels, discussions, and greatest-matches lists, the McEnroe vs. Borg championship is still considered one of the greatest Grand Slam finals in tennis history.

Its legacy extends beyond the scoreline. The match showcased the power of an unforgettable rivalry, contrasting personalities, and extraordinary shot-making, proving that the greatest sporting moments can captivate generations long after the final point has been played.

1975 Ballad, Reimagined Into a No. 1 Hit, Became a Soft Rock Anthem

Fri, 07/10/2026 - 10:50am

David Martin's "Can't Smile Without You" wasn't the hit everyone expected when it was released, but it became a soft rock anthem when covered by Barry Manilowyears later.

The 1975 soft rock track written by Christian Arnold, Martin, and Geoff Morrow has gone through a few versions since its initial release. When it was released by Martin, the track gained little to no attention. The same occurred when it was recorded in 1976 by the music duo The Carpenters when they released it as part of their album, A Kind of Hush.

Inspiration behind the track varies, with some reports claiming Martin was inspired by a woman named Debbie who appears on the cover with him. According to SongFacts, Martin was inspired by a greeting card his wife showed him. The card had a frown and a teardrop that said: "Can't Smile Without You."

"I was immediately drawn to the slogan, and during the drive home from Hampstead to Harrow, a journey of about 30 minutes, the song was written," he explained.

The song didn't gain traction on the charts until 1978, when Manilow's record label boss, Clive Davis, had him try his own cover. It was included in his Even Now album and was issued by Manilow as a single when his version landed at No. 1 on the Adult Contemporary chart and No. 3 on the Billboard Hot 100.

Manilow's version of "Can't Smile Without You" made some creative changes to the lyrics and sound after hearing both the Carpenters' and Martin's versions. Fans may notice the slight word changes in Manilow's version compared to the duo's from 1977. Martin's version had a string arrangement that Manilow felt was too simple and soon gave it his own creative flair.

"I decided that I would treat it with a big smile; like a vaudeville piece, with lots of key changes, a whistle in the intro and a real take-home ending," he said in The Complete Collection and Then Some, according to SongFacts. "I had even made plans to include a tap dance solo!"

The tap dance solo never happened and was instead replaced by whistling during the opening of the song. Manilow explained that he "realized that the song was absolutely irresistible and decided to treat it with the same smile, but less silly, and we made a record of it that I'm still proud of to this day."

Despite the creative changed done to the original track, Martin was head over heels for it and said that he "first heard Barry's recording of the song, I realized that his injection of key changes coupled with the feeling of voice made the song speak volumes."

"Can't Smile Without You" would become an anthem in many ways when it became a sports staple sung by fans of English Premier League club Tottenham Hotspur since the '70s. Manilow's track also appears in films like Starsky & Hutch, Hellboy II: The Golden Army, Unconditional Love, and the series Matlock.

The Reason Why Margaret Qualley Initiated the Split From Her Music Producer Husband

Fri, 07/10/2026 - 10:48am

New details are emerging following reports that Margaret Qualley and Jack Antonoff have separated. According to an exclusive report from Us Weekly, Qualley, 31, was the one who initiated the split after the couple experienced ongoing challenges throughout their three-year marriage. The insider pointed to demanding schedules, distance, and trust issues as contributing factors in the marriage’s breakdown.

The pair reportedly tried to make it work as recently as a few months ago. But according to the source, something shifted for Qualley. “At some point, the rose-colored glasses came off,” the insider says, “and she felt she needed to take a step back.” Antonoff, for his part, had reportedly confided in friends that the marriage had grown difficult.

View this post on Instagram

The first public cracks appeared before the news even broke. On July 3, Antonoff showed up solo to Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s wedding in New York - a notable absence that got people talking. Days later, on July 8, People confirmed the pair had split after three years of marriage. Around the same time, TMZ reported that Qualley had scrubbed wedding photos from her social media.

Yet the picture wasn’t entirely clear-cut: even as breakup rumors swirled, Antonoff was still spotted wearing his wedding ring. (*The couple hadn’t been seen together publicly since the 2026 Grammy Awards in February.)

Qualley and Antonoff met in 2021, got engaged the following year, and married in New Jersey in 2023. Despite the split, the source says there are no divorce plans yet - at least for now.

1979 Unstoppable Michael Jackson Anthem, Released 47 Years Ago, Changed Music History

Fri, 07/10/2026 - 10:43am

Forty-seven years ago, Michael Jackson released "Don't Stop 'Til You Get Enough," the lead single from his first LP for Sony Records. The song changed music history by pioneering a sleek, genre-crossing pop-funk style of music that would define his Thriller and Bad eras, allowing him to become a music superstar.

Released on July 28, 1979, the song transformed the former Jackson 5 member into a solo superstar. From the LP Off the Wall, "Don't Stop 'Til You Get Enough" launched him into solo superstardom.

According to Sterogum, Jackson yearned to step out on his own as a solo artist and have some creative control over the music he wrote and recorded. Jackson reportedly called his friend, producer Quincy Jones, asking him to suggest potential collaborators for a solo project, and Jones suggested himself.

Jackson reportedly wrote "Don't Stop 'Til You Get Enough" at home. He recorded a demo version of the song with his brother Randy Jackson playing piano and his sisterJanet Jackson on percussion.

Although Jackson was credited as the sole writer of the track, Jones later revealed that wasn't entirely the case. Speaking with Vulture, the producer pulled back the curtain on the song's true origins, claiming that Jackson actually had a bit of uncredited help from his keyboard player to get that signature groove down.

"Greedy, man. Greedy. “Don’t Stop ’Til You Get Enough” — Greg Phillinganes wrote the c section. Michael should’ve given him 10 percent of the song. Wouldn’t do it," Jones claimed.

According to Songfacts, "the chorus contains one of the most misheard vocals ever." The website cites the line, "Keep up with the force... don't stop 'til you get enough."

It has long been rumored that Jackson may have been inspired to write the line after seeing the 1977 film blockbuster, Star Wars. The "force" was a big element of the movie, described as an energy field that brings all living things and galaxies together.

Additionally, Jones called Jackson was a "very special talent" in an interview with CBC News. However, that didn't mean the two strong-willed creatives didn't get into some clashes.

Jones revealed that Jackson sent him a note during the song's production, asking him to remove the violins in its introduction. "It was the identifying line," Jones explained.

"I told him, 'No way. You don't tell me what to do. It ended up on the record. That's one of the strongest parts of the introduction."

The song reached No. 1 on the Billboard charts in October 1979. It remained on the charts for a total of 26 weeks.

"Don't Stop 'Til You Get Enough" would win a Grammy Award for Best Male R&B Vocal Performance at the 1980 awards. The song was also nominated for Best Disco Recording, a one-year-only award, but Jackson lost to Gloria Gaynor's "I Will Survive."

Zendaya Had No Idea She Was Up for Her Nolan Dream Role: But Tom Holland Did

Fri, 07/10/2026 - 10:42am

For all the spectacle Christopher Nolan packed into The Odyssey, the story fans can't stop sharing this week happened on a couch. As the film premiered in London on July 6 ahead of its July 17 theatrical release, Zendayaand Tom Holland each told their half of the same story. Namely, she never knew she was being considered for the role of Athena, and her husband was the one who spilled the secret.

Zendaya plays the goddess of wisdom in Nolan's adaptation of Homer's epic, opposite Matt Damon as Odysseus, Anne Hathaway as Penelope and Holland as the couple's son, Telemachus. But when Holland first landed his part, she assumed the family's good fortune ended there. "I was already on Cloud Nine for him," she recalled on the Happy Sad Confused podcast.

What she didn't know was what happened at her husband's meeting with the director. According to Holland, Nolan ended the conversation with a question: "Would you be offended if I asked Zendaya to play Athena?" Holland assured him he would not be, then asked if he could deliver the news himself. Nolan agreed.

The couple had read the script together the night before that meeting. So when Holland came home and suggested she look at it again, Zendaya was confused. His advice to her was "just read it again, but read Athena really closely." Her reaction, by her own account, was disbelief, followed by the realization that she would be working with a filmmaker she had admired for years. Holland has said that Interstellar is her favorite movie, and that getting to hand her that information felt like a gift he could never properly thank Nolan for.

The Odyssey marks the couple's first movie together since confirming their marriage, and their fifth on-screen collaboration since meeting on Spider-Man: Homecoming, though they share no scenes in Nolan's sprawling ensemble. The scheduling stakes were also very high. Holland previously told GQ that Marvel shifted Spider-Man: Brand New Day, which opens July 31, so he could take the Nolan role, putting both halves of the household at the center of two of the summer's biggest releases just two weeks apart.

For a couple famous for guarding their private life, sharing this heartwarming moment with fans is quite a treat. When The Odyssey reaches theaters on July 17, audiences will see the result of a role that a Hollywood wife found out about from her Hollywood husband, at home.
