"Golden Bachelor" Gerry Turner on His Search for Love
It's never too late to fall in love again. Just ask Gerry Turner.
The former restauranteur's dream of a quiet post-retirement life on the lake was shattered six years ago when his wife of 43 years, Toni, died suddenly from a bacterial infection. Devastated, Gerry relied on the support from their two daughters and granddaughters to guide him through his grief, and, eventually, a new plan for his golden years: Becoming the first star of ABC's The Golden Bachelor.
Never has a new lead been so quickly and universally accepted and beloved by Bachelor Nation when it was officially announced that the 72-year-old widower with a love for pickleball would b…
How Taylor Swift Reacted to Finally Meeting Jason Kelce
How do you make sure Taylor Swift is enchanted to meet you? Jason Kelce has a way.
The Philadelphia Eagles center recently shared that the Jan. 21 Kansas City Chiefs vs. Buffalo Bills game was his first encounter with the "Karma" singer—and he certainly left her wonderstruck by taking off his shirt to celebrate his brother Travis Kelce's touchdown.
In fact, the tight end revealed his girlfriend's reaction, sharing on the Jan. 24 episode of the New Heights podcast, "Tay said she absolutely loved you."
And while the Grammy winner may now see Travis' brother as her brother, Jason shared that his wife, Kyl…
See Rihanna's New Met Gala-Themed Wax Figure
There's a fine line between Harry Styles and his brand-new wax lookalikes.
Waxwork museum Madame Tussauds recently unveiled seven new figures of the "Watermelon Sugar" artist, all of which were crafted after his colorful performance costumes and red carpet appearances from past years.
Four of the seven wax figures took direct inspiration from Harry's Love on Tour concert series, which saw the singer globetrot around the world in feather boas and sequins.
The museum's Singapore spot will feature Harry donning a blue-and-yellow outfit, complete with strawberry embellishments and gemstones, from the Glasgow leg of Love on Tour. Meanwhile, Madame Tussauds Sydney's wax…
Sophia Bush Divorcing Husband Grant Hughes: New Details
Grant Hughes is offering his own requests.
More than a month after Sophia Bush filed for divorce from the entrepreneur, he submitted a response to the One Tree Hill star's petition. In addition to citing "irreconcilable differences" as the reason for their breakup, Hughes, 42, asked the court to not grant spousal support to both him and Bush, 41, according to court documents obtained by E! News.
Furthermore, Hughes—who listed his and the Chicago PD alum's date of separation as June 27—asked that attorney's fees and other costs be individually paid for by him and Bush, per court documents.
On top of that, Hughes requested that…
Kate Middleton Steps Out Amid Photo Controversy
Prince William is showing up where it counts.
Only two days after Kate Middleton's Mother's Day U.K. photo raised eyebrows, the Prince of Wales stepped out without his wife to attend the funeral of Thomas Kingston, the late husband of his relative Lady Gabriella, multiple outlets reported.
For the private March 12 service, William gathered alongside Gabriella and her parents, the Prince and Princess Michael of Kent, at Chapel Royal in St. James's Palace in London, where the financier was laid to rest.
Despite sharing their grief following his death, Queen Camila and …
St. Bartholomew was flayed alive. St. Lawrence? Grilled to a crisp. St. Lucy and St. Agatha are often depicted carrying the symbols of their martyrdom around on small dinner plates, a pair of poked-out eyeballs in Lucy’s case, a set of severed breasts in Agatha’s. The lore of Catholicism is gruesome enough to fill a thousand horror movies. A picture in which a demure-but-hot young nun is lured to a spooky-opulent Italian convent for nefarious purposes isn’t such a stretch.
In Immaculate, directed by Michael Mohan and written by Andrew Lobel, Sydney Sweeney plays meek, devoted Sister Cecilia, a sweetheart from Detroit who has chosen to dedicate her life to Christ. There’s no way around it: she’s adorable, and the customs officers who detain her upon her arrival i…
Caribbean black cake may look humble, but its craggy, unfrosted surface conceals a sumptuous confection that earns its place of honor on the Christmas dinner table. It takes time to make; dried fruit soaked for days, weeks, or more in rum and brandy anchor its flavor profile. Almonds give it substance. Burnt sugar lends the dark color. There are surprising ingredients, like Manischewitz, which is often substituted for brandy. While the recipe probably began life as a variation on the plum pudding imported by British colonizers, black cake is emphatically its own sweet, dense, intoxicating, island-spiced, painstakingly assembled, culturally hybrid thing.
“You can’t follow Thrones, it’s The Beatles.” So said Ryan Condal, who created the Game of Thrones prequel series House of the Dragon with George R. R. Martin, in a breathless Hollywood Reporter cover story on the making of Dragon. Had the Beatles spent two years and record-breaking sums of money recording an abysmal follow-up to Let It Be that would throw the band’s entire legacy into question, this might’ve been an apt comparison. In truth, Martin, Condal, and Condal’s fellow showrunner Miguel Sapochnik have taken on the tougher task of constructing a franchise out of a once-great series whose final season alienated many fans to the extent that, even in our IP-crazy times, few seemed to come out of …
Lil Nas X’s new single “J-Christ” is the rapper’s latest moment of invoking a religion that has not always welcomed openly gay people like himself. It’s clear the artist sees himself as a martyr—a photo Lil Nas X posted on X (formerly Twitter) announcing the song featured him lying on a cross.
“MY NEW SINGLE IS DEDICATED TO THE MAN WHO HAD THE GREATEST COMEBACK OF ALL TIME,” he wrote.
Lil Nas X has always embraced provocative Christian imagery. The biggest example is the lap dance he gave a devil character in the 2021 music video for “Montero.” In TIME’s 2021 cover story about the artist, he explained that he is trying to reach certain people who have felt like sinners and outsiders at church, specifically LGBTQ youth.
“I grew up in a pretty religi…
