Nashville is a town of unsung heroes — of both “your favorite artist’s favorite artist” and session musicians who can play circles around the more celebrated front people. It’s also a town that usually waits until it’s far too late to recognize any of them, if at all. The Mississippi-born Charlie Worsham is all of these things: performer, player, songwriter, ally, and beloved member of the community. And last Friday, Vince Gill announced that Worsham would be the newest inductee to the Grand Ole Opry. It’s about damn time a Music City institution got something so right. The Grand Ole…

The four adult Cascio siblings who allege Michael Jackson sexually abused them on interstate or international trips when they were minors have lost their bid for a public trial of their child sex trafficking claims and must instead go to private arbitration with Jackson’s estate, a federal judge has ruled.

A child sex trafficking lawsuit against Michael Jackson‘s estate has been thrown out of court. Four siblings – Edward, Dominic, Marie-Nicole and Aldo Cascio – accused the late singer of abuse in a lawsuit this February, per Billboard.

Despite the family members having previously defended the star against pedophilia claims, the siblings alleged that Jackson raped and molested them as children over the course of more than 10 years. They first spoke out about…

Travis Barker didn’t want to do this documentary.

“She’s a traitor to the West.”  Elon Musk posted this on X on July 25 in response to a clip of Zanny Minton Beddoes, editor-in-chief of The Economist, saying on CNBC that Musk propagates a “caricatured” image of Europe as a deteriorating, unlivable hell hole. Beddoes had recently interviewed Musk, challenging his views on Europe, and confronting him for supporting far-right politicians and parties from Germany to the UK. Beddoes never questioned the hallmarks of liberal democracy: free and fair elections, separation of powers, equal protection under the law, or human rights. But in Musk’s mind, her pushing back on his…
