Just a few minutes into the new movie Primetime, To Catch a Predator host Chris Hansen — played to eerie perfection by Robert Pattinson — finds himself seated next to an older man on an airplane who has clearly had a few cocktails. “It is so cool to meet a real celebrity,” he says. “What you’re doing matters, like, really fuckin’ matters… If I was you, I’d just fuckin’ kill those guys, beat the living shit out of them, bare hands. Don’t you ever just want to bleed ’em?” Not all viewers will recognize the actor, but true fans of…
Stray Kids have not submitted their latest project, This & That, for consideration at the 2027 Grammy Awards. According to Variety, JYP Entertainment confirmed the eight-piece group allowed the eligibility period, which concluded on Aug. 28, just two weeks after the EP release, to pass without action.

Metallica, never a band to shy from spectacle, made a reliably mammoth debut at the Las Vegas Sphere last night (October 1). Operating as a four-piece unit in front of the venue’s giant curved screen, they opened with Master of Puppets classic “Battery” to launch an 18-song set spanning from their 1983 thrash-metal debut Kill Em All to their most recent album, 2023’s 72 Seasons.

There’s a hot streak, and then there’s the year Miami duo B0YG1RL are having. Angela Rio and June “Tété” Vinette’s new self-titled album actually marks their fourth LP of 2026, and follows the thrilling Novagang collab EXIT 2B. The pair’s blend of kompa, post-rage rap, reggaeton, electro-pop, and baile funk is a testament to their rich roots in the South Florida scene and beyond, delivered primarily in Haitian Creole. They easily blend diasporic traditions with hyperlocal heat by recognizing that the two are, more often that not, one and the same.Listen on Apple MusicListen on SpotifyListen on TidalListen on Amazon…
Metal’s biggest band, Metallica, seemed bigger than usual on Thursday night, when they kicked off their Life Burns Faster residency at the Sphere in Las Vegas. With a 160,000-square-foot screen that stretches 240 feet into the air, they had their largest canvas ever for visuals, and they used every inch of it. Although they created jaw-dropping visuals for every song in their set list, they turned the artwork for Ride the Lightning, Master of Puppets, and … And Justice for All into an immersive, almost 3-D experience for fans when they played those albums’ title songs on the first night.…
Pete Hegseth, to his credit, understands one truth about the world: the military’s job is to kill people. Hegseth, the newly rebranded “Secretary of War,” is obsessed with showcasing clean-cut troops trained to do just that. He refers to it as “lethality,” a word that he used twice in his roughly hour-long State of the Force speech on Wednesday, which laid out his vision for this new, more-violent military: a force of fit, unified “warfighters,” unburdened by the bureaucracy and norms of the past. “No more diversity quotas, no more gender pronouns, no more identity months,” Hegseth said, pacing back…
Phil Collins has seemingly reignited his long-running feud with Paul McCartney – suggesting that the Beatles legend was behind him being taken out of a documentary. The spat between the two dates back over 20 years ago, when the singer, drummer and Genesis member was allegedly on the receiving end of a belittling comment from McCartney when he met him at Buckingham Palace. Collins opened up about the supposed incident in 2016, saying that he approached McCartney and his then-wife Heather Mills at the palace in 2002 and asked them to sign a “first edition of The Beatles by Hunter…

CMAT has shared her thoughts on the backlash being faced by Ed Sheeran, saying that while she thinks he could have handled it differently, a lot of the criticism he is facing is still “unfair”. Sheeran has been at the centre of controversy recently, after Macklemore was dropped as a support act for his ‘Loop’ tour after making a speech calling for a “free Palestine”. After his on-stage comments, Gillette Stadium owner and New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft said he found Macklemore’s speech “deeply offensive and hurtful to the Jewish community”, while the likes of Pink and the Israeli…
