The AI-animated music video praising Spencer Pratt features lyrics like 'Latinos for Pratt we're singing/Because we're tired of this dirty beat,' but the musical style is more Miami and Cuban than reflective of L.A.'s Latino heritage.
It's time for 2026 California to wake up to the fact that Sib, Joe Sib, is a contender for the Best of Us Award. It's wildly rare to have an artist like Sib who crosses over from being in the early punk rock scene to co-founding SideOneDummy Records and discovering talent like Flogging Molly.
During breakfast, the artist walked past their table. My daughter, like any child, recognised her, got excited, and just wanted to make sure it was really her. And the worst part is she didn't even approach her. She simply walked past the singer's table, looked to confirm it was her, smiled, and went back to sit with her mum.
Kelly's A-lister look was undeniable. The actor popped up on VF's cream carpet decked out in a sumptuous, velvet brown Brunello Cucinelli one-and-a-half breasted dinner jacket and matching silk-wool trousers. Impossibly louche and fitted to be relaxed but not oversized, the jacket - a custom job, put together by legendary stylist Warren Alfie Baker - instantly evoked images of old Hollywood.
Jonah Singer, a 27-year-old ASMR content creator, utilizes a $100,000 head and torso simulator mic named Alex to produce his videos, which are particularly popular among viewers suffering from insomnia and anxiety.
I don't attract gay men and I'm not attracted to gay men. It's just not a thing. If you ask any of the girls, they'll tell you the same. That's why I don't really go to gay clubs, and I don't go to gay things, because the men that I attract are not there.
Kaeden Rowland has made shopping at Staples well, cool! A print specialist at one of the store's locations in upstate New York, this 22-year-old regularly posts videos of herself on the job. We watch her make cat mugs and help people strike the best poses for passport photos. She's the opposite of corporate-and that connects.
Rogan frames the presence of ICE as a direct response to mass fraud in Minnesota, justifies ICE's need for total anonymity to carry out their work, warns one of the real problems is that ICE might wrongly be seen as villains, and expresses sympathy for ICE agents. While lamenting Good's shooting as unfortunate, Rogan says she seemed crazy and out of her fucking mind, speculating she was a deliberate agitator.
I'm looking forward to fellowshipping with fellow art enthusiasts and seeing ambitious work from galleries around the world. I'm especially excited for the Collector X Dinner, which always brings together some of the most thoughtful voices in the art and business community.
Michael has become a must-follow voice in queer comedy thanks to his sharp observations, deeply relatable videos, and his ability to capture the messiness, humor, and contradictions of gay culture. Whether he is skewering dating apps, touring internationally, or turning dumpsters, French onion dip, and therapy into comedy gold, his work resonates because it is honest and very funny.
It's kind of a little local community hang spot as much as it is a retail store. You could buy analog cameras or photo books at the shop. If you're like me, you could browse in order to motivate yourself to dig your old film camera out of the closet. Or you could just hang out, talk art, and make friends.
I've gotten more comfortable with the idea of Joelle, and my boyfriend calls me Joelle. My family doesn't call me Joelle. My friends call me JoJo, but Jenna Johnson from Dancing with the Stars calls me Joelle, so it's kinda been a mix in my life. But now, I feel like Joelle more so now than ever.
The only good reason to be mad at him is that he has leveraged the unlimited resources and power of Klutch Sports, CAA, Spotify, and The Ringer to make daytime SportsCenter simulacrum without the catchphrases. Paul and Kellerman's FanDuel-sponsored podcast is bad. It's bad in the sort of banal way that most podcasts are bad-the hosts don't say much of substance, they are stricken with red light syndrome, and their riffs are obtuse and unimaginative.
From helping Beyoncé figure out how to launch an album exclusively on social media to onboarding Pope Francis to Instagram (he held my hands and asked me to pray for him) to watching creators become the next generation of entrepreneurs, the impact on culture that me and the team have been able to have is something that I take great pride in.
Steve Martin Writes the Written Word is an aptly-named collection and excellent introduction to the comedian's best writings, including some new material. In another piece, he makes the list of 100 greatest books he read laugh out loud funny with fake titles such as "Omelet: Olga - Mnemonic Devices for Remembering Waitress' Names" and "Marijuana! Totally Harmless (can't remember author)."
Michael Ovitz, the cofounder of powerhouse Los Angeles talent agency Creative Artists Agency and a prolific tech investor, effusively praised Jeffrey Epstein and made arrangements to meet him at his New York home and off the coast of St. Barts, newly released files reveal. The disgraced financier invited Ovitz to his private Caribbean island in 2012 and said he knew Ovitz "well" in emails to a Microsoft executive and his publicist, Peggy Siegal.
On Thursday, the House passed the Health Care Affordability Act in a 230-196 vote, which would provide a three-year extension to the Affordable Care Act, thus extending the pandemic-era subsidies that expired on December 31. And while the bill is pretty much guaranteed to be dead-on-arrival in the Senate (especially since it's already been rejected by the upper chamber and Sen. Majority Leader John Thune (R-S.D.) vowed to ignore it), that didn't stop Rep. Lauren Underwood (D-Ill.)-who introduced it-from performing a little celebratory dance.
It's purely a creative space. There are no deadlines. There are no have-to's. It's just something I do for me. When you design a recording studio, the first thing you want to do is treat the room to make sure the sound is good, so you're getting an accurate depiction of the music as it was played or recorded.
"By launching a service that operates without meaningful safeguards against infringement, ByteDance is disregarding well-established copyright law that protects the rights of creators and underpins millions of American jobs. ByteDance should immediately cease its infringing activity," Charles Rivkin, chairman and CEO of the MPA, said in a statement Tuesday.
Through throwback posts, people have been traveling back to the year when dog and flower crown Snapchat filters, Instagram eyebrows, the mannequin challenge and the Chainsmokers were everywhere. But why, you may ask? On social media, 2016 is remembered as the last carefree era, a time when people posted whatever they wanted without overthinking it, when folks actually danced at parties instead of pointing their phones at the DJ booth to "capture content."
Dhar Mann's morality tales about Karens getting exposed, kids with disabilities finding acceptance, and the like have made him one of the internet's most popular creators. He also stands out in a mostly unscripted world for his focus on scripted content, including a recent micro-drama production deal with Fox. His videos, shot in a 125,000 square-foot Burbank production studio, regularly run 20 minutes or longer and get upward of a million views on YouTube.
The Human Artistry Campaign's " Stealing Isn't Innovation " movement launches today with over 800 signatories. Those include many Hollywood actors, including Scarlett Johansson, Cate Blanchett, and Joseph Gordon-Levitt, as well as writers such as Jodi Picoult and Roxane Gay, and musicians like Cyndi Lauper and They Might be Giants. The campaign has a simple message: "Stealing our work is not innovation. It's not progress. It's theft-plain and simple."
Under the deal, Wayans will produce original content for the platform, appearing in livestreams, hosting interactive sessions and launching his own multiplayer Play Together room. His addition comes shortly after NBA star James Harden joined the company as its first Premier Creator, signaling a broader push to mix star power with online play. Best known for his long career as an actor, writer and producer, Wayans plans to use the platform to meet fans in a more direct way.
As the CEO and co-founder of the generative AI music company Suno, Shulman currently finds himself in the exhilarating if perhaps unenviable position of being simultaneously regarded as the architect of music's future and its executioner. Suno, which was founded just over two years ago, allows users to create entire songs with just a few text prompts. At the moment, you can't prompt it with the name of a specific pop star
But Rocky can't get his phone to sync with his sports car. He's determined, though, and while the engine growls at low idle, he tinkers for minutes that feel much longer. But still-no dice. He calls over one of his two bodyguards, both of whom are affable as far as dudes who protect celebrities for a living go. One of the bodyguards pushes a button here and twists a knob there and, bada bing, Rocky's album at last begins playing on the Ferrari's speakers.
Mike Jones upgraded to iPhone 17 Pro Max but kept his legendary 281-330-8004 number, proving his 2005 marketing strategy was pure genius. Mike Jones just proved that some marketing strategies never go out of style, and his legendary phone number, 281-330-8004, continues to ring even on his brand-new iPhone 17 Pro Max. The Houston rapper posted on Instagram showing his phone was already buzzing with calls before he even finished setting up his new device.
