“I knew I had done something remarkable,” John Fogerty says of his years with Creedence Clearwater Revival in the new episode of Rolling Stone Music Now. “In a sense, I did what the Beatles did, but I did it all by myself. I didn’t have two other guys to write songs with me.”

For his new album, Aug. 22’s Legacy: the Creedence Clearwater Revival years, Fogerty re-recorded classics (from “Born On the Bayou” to “Have You Ever Seen the Rain”) with his sons Shane and Tyler filing in for the long-since-split band.

William H. Macy, the revered Oscar-nominated and Emmy-winning character actor, will sit down with yours truly on Sept. 9 in Toronto to record a special episode of The Hollywood Reporter’s Awards Chatter podcast in front of an audience at THR’s Access Canada Summit, a three-day event that spotlights Canada’s vibrant content industry.

The recording will take place at Toronto’s Omni King Edward Hotel at 10:30 a.m. local time. Tickets are available for purchase on the summit’s website.

Macy, 75, is best known for his work in films like 1996’s Fargo, 1997’s Boogie Nights and 2015’s Room, as well as TV series such as ER and Shameless. He will be at this year’s Toronto International Film Festival with Clint Bentley’s Train Dreams, which had its world premiere at the Sundance Film Festival last January en route to being acquired by Netflix, and for which he...

While there’s no concrete information yet, there’s a chance that the next two seasons of The Voice could be impacted by the tragic death of music mogul Brandon Blackstock.

Brandon passed away on Thursday morning (August 7) after a three-year battle with cancer. He was the ex-husband of Kelly Clarkson and father of their two children. He was also the former step-son of country singer Reba McEntire.

So, why will the next two seasons of The Voice be impacted?

Reba and Kelly are judges on the upcoming seasons and they were both schedule to be filming right now.

Reba is set to be a coach on the 28th season of The Voice, airing in Fall 2025. She will be joined by Niall Horan, Michael Buble, and Snoop Dogg.

Exclusive: One of the more intriguing Emmy battles this year is Beyoncé going head-to-head with Saturday Night Live’s celeb-filled 50th anniversary special.

Netflix’s Beyoncé Bowl and SNL 50: The Anniversary are battling each other in the Outstanding Variety Special (Live) category.

The Television Academy had originally scheduled this award to be handed out during the second night of the Creative Arts Emmys, but Deadline understands that it has now been moved to the main primetime show, which will take place September 14 at the Peacock Theater in Los Angeles and air on CBS and Paramount+.

A TV Academy spokesman confirmed the move. The motives for the move are not entirely clear, but it’s likely an opportunity to get Beyoncé to the awards. The pop star has never attended the Emmys, despite having been nominated before.

The two shows will also go up against fellow nominees the Apple Music...

When Ozzy Osbourne brought Metallica on tour in 1986, he noticed his young opening act blasting Black Sabbath in their dressing room and covering his old band’s songs in soundchecks. Osbourne’s first assumption, he said later, was that Metallica were mocking him. He was stunned to learn they were actually displaying their hero worship, and trying to coax him onstage with them.

As discussed in the new episode of Rolling Stone Music Now, Osbourne — who died July 22 at the age of 76 — could be touchingly insecure for a beloved and wildly influential metal legend.

Some things are better left hidden from the public eye, but unfortunately, a conversation between the Osbournes became the center of attention for all the wrong reasons when Sharon Osbourne urged her daughter to be with Diddy, despite her son’s protests. Whether Kelly dated Diddy or not remains unknown, but back then, Sharon wouldn’t have minded it at all.

Amidst the recent scandal the rapper has found himself in, an old moment from ‘The Osbournes’ show revealed exactly what two members of the family think of Diddy, and they couldn’t be more different from each other.

In the resurfaced clip (via the Daily Mail), Sharon and Ozzy Osbourne‘s son can be seen warning his sister about getting too close to Diddy. It was revealed that Diddy gifted Kelly a diamond watch to make up for his security guard bumping into her and knocking her over.

Remember...

Sean Diddy Combs is seeking either a retrial or an acquittal, a month after he was convicted of two charges of transportation to engage in pr*stit*tion. In a 62-page memorandum to the judge overseeing his case, his defense team claimed that the prosecution unfairly targeted their client. They claimed that his verdict was “unconstitutional” and unprecedented (via CNN).

Diddy was convicted of the lesser offenses, while he was acquitted of the more serious charges, including s*x trafficking and racketeering. His legal team questioned the interpretation of evidence in the charges, claiming that they were not supported by actual law.

The defense continued to claim that Diddy engaged in consensual s*x and adult entertainment. They claimed that their client’s activities were distorted by the prosecution and presented as a major crime. They argued that the escorts involved in the act were all legally hired through licensed services,...

Trigger Warning: This article contains minor references to themes of s*x trafficking and pr*stit*tion, which some individuals may find distressing.

P Diddy’s federal criminal trial has landed him with a split verdict that’s mostly in his favor, but he isn’t entirely out of public fire. For one, Colorado Buffaloes head coach Deion Sanders is said to have called the rap mogul out for an alleged serious crime in a since-deleted tweet. Also embroiled in the fire with him was Snoop Dogg, whom the coach didn’t hesitate to name-drop.

As shared by @Ri_S_OB on X, in an old tweet from April 2011, Coach Prime seemingly took to his X handle @DeionSanders to allege both Sean Combs and Dogg of a disturbing claim. Here’s what he wrote:

I don’t think y’all heard me! Diddy, Snoop, and Prime with a house full of kids.

Michael Jai White has been in a lot of film and TV projects over the last 35 years or so. But probably most beloved amongst his fans is “Black Dynamite,” the 2009 sendup of 1970s blaxploitation movies he conceived, co-wrote and starred in. That it remains a favorite for him too is made obvious by “Trouble Man,” which isn’t a spoof but a relatively straight-faced replay of that vintage genre’s conventions, with White (also directing now) as the supercool hero constantly besting bad guys via martial arts and gunplay, while simultaneously fending off the attentions of various beautiful women.

Bearing no formal relation to the actual 1972 blaxploitation feature of the same title, which is best remembered for its Marvin Gaye score, White’s “Trouble Man” is full of such winking references to vintage African-American pop culture. But referentiality is as far as this semi-tongue-in-cheek endeavor goes; it does a lot...

Shirley Halperin is departing The Hollywood Reporter to become co-editor-in-chief of Rolling Stone — the first woman to fill that role in the brand’s 60-year legacy. Maer Roshan, THR’s co-editor, is staying on as the magazine’s sole editor-in-chief.

Halperin, a veteran music journalist and editor, will lead Rolling Stone’s music coverage alongside Sean Woods, the title’s longtime executive editor, who is being promoted to co-editor-in-chief. Halperin starts her new role on Sept. 1, serving as both co-editor-in-chief and head of music, and will split her time between New York and Los Angeles. Woods, who will step into his new role effective immediately, will remain based in the brand’s New York headquarters. The duo will work closely with Rolling Stone’s recently appointed CEO, Julian Holguin, to shape the brand’s editorial direction.

The Coalition of Asian Pacifics in Entertainment (Cape) has named its Showrunners Incubator class of 2025.

The #TakeTheLead diversity initiative is back for a second year. “Nancy Drew” and “Tom Swift” executive producer and showrunner Melinda Hsu is acting as chair of the program. The incubator provides writers who are on the brink of showrunning with exclusive mentorship and real-world training and education.

“According to the WGA’s latest job statistics, there were over 1,300 TV writing jobs lost last season—nearly half of them at the co-executive producer to showrunner level,” said Rhian Moore, Cape’s head of programs. “This sharp decline means even fewer opportunities for writers to gain the leadership experience they need, both in the writers’ room and on set. With alumni from our inaugural year already finding success as they step into showrunning roles, Cape is excited to continue our work training the next generation of creative leaders.

14 Kim Kardashian’s Head Fell Off

In 2011, she added to her tragically diverse portfolio with a horrible song called “Jam (Turn It Up)” that flopped with 14,000 downloads in its first week. Don’t worry, she blamed it on a good cause: She retroactively and flippantly announced that she “gave the proceeds to a cancer organization.” Ew, here, you take this 14 cents.

After allegations of sexual assault surfaced, he was summarily written out of Netflix’s flagship franchise, House of Cards, and has struggled to get work since.

Snoop Dogg, rapper, pop culture icon, and surprise voice actor in The Garfield Movie, has set his sights on the Marvel Cinematic Universe. No, seriously. The 53-year-old legend, born Calvin Cordozar Broadus Jr., recently posted AI-generated images on Facebook showing himself suited up as Venom, locked in combat with Spider-Man. The caption was a casual, “Who agrees I should be the new Venom?” You can probably guess what happened next. The comment section exploded with a mix of support, confusion, and comedy gold. One fan deadpanned, “Weed and AI is a wild combo.” Another pitched an entirely different Marvel character: “Snoop. I would like to see you as our new Luke Cage.” But perhaps the most cutting came from someone who commented, “Totally disagree. I don’t think Venom can Crip walk.” And then there was the comment that everyone agreed with: “I don’t see Venom. I see somebody...

NBC has made some big announcements regarding its full fall 2025-2026 schedule, so now we know a lot about what’s ahead for next season. Two of the network’s freshman comedies got early renewals, and it is the home for many tried-and-true procedural dramas that aren’t going anywhere anytime soon. Here’s a look at everything we know about NBC’s fall 2025-2026 TV plans. Renewed NBC Shows NBC has renewed Happy’s Place, its new Reba McEntire-led family comedy series, for a second season. It also gave a Season 2 order to the hospital workplace comedy St. Denis Medical. Though The Voice has not been officially renewed for 2025, the network has already announced Snoop Dogg will rejoin the coaches chair for Season 28. Also, all three shows in the One Chicago universe — Chicago Fire, Chicago Med, and Chicago P.D. — will return. And it’ll continue to be a Dick Wolf...

The NBC fall 2025 premiere dates have been announced and include the latest iteration of the iconic musical competition series The Voice, the return of the compelling Zachary Quinto drama series Brilliant Minds, the venerable Law & Order franchise, and the finale of summer’s #1 show, America’s Got Talent.

The 2025-2026 season — specifically those shows returning and premiering in the fall — will be here before you know it! NBC has joined CBS, ABC, and Fox in unveiling its fall 2025 premiere dates. It all begins with The Voice‘s return, with coaches Michael Bublé, Reba McEntire, Niall Horan and Snoop Dogg, and the Brilliant Minds Season 2 premiere on Monday, September 22. Then the Law & Order franchise once again takes over Thursdays — yes, that’s Organized Crime back on the schedule, with the Season 5 episodes that already streamed on Peacock (there’s no news about Season 6) — on September 24. The other Dick Wolf franchise, One Chicago, kicks off its new seasons on Wednesday, October 1. NBC’s hit comedies St. Denis Medical and Happy’s Place both start their second seasons the week of November 3 with back-to-back airings on Mondays and Fridays. Plus, NBA returns to NBC beginning on Tuesday, October 21, with the hourlong...

Surprise! The three-hour Law & Order Thursday lineup will be back on NBC’s fall schedule. Law & Order: Organized Crime, which moved from NBC to Peacock ahead of its fifth season a year ago, will return to the broadcast network. Its fifth season, which recently wrapped its run on the NBCUniversal streamer, will get a second window on NBC, airing in its old Thursday 10 Pm slot behind Law & Order and Law & Order: Svu. The L&w trio will debut their new seasons Sept. 25.

The intention with Organized Crime‘s move to Peacock was to make the drama starring Christopher Meloni even more serialized and edgy. While it is serialized, Season 5 was not as dark as anticipated, making it suitable for a 10 Pm airing on broadcast, where the expectation is that it would reach a largely new audience.

Stephen Curry didn’t flinch. He might’ve been tired of Kendrick Lamar’s Not Like Us but that fatigue wasn’t rooted in pettiness; it was personal. Unlike LeBron James, who danced publicly to a diss aimed squarely at Drake, Curry admitted in a recent Complex interview that his groan was rooted in friendship. Curry said:

We go way back though and it’s actually kind of a family thing too. One of Ayesha’s cousins is from Toronto and the whole deal. So, we’re all in the same boat.

“Everywhere we went, it was all I heard,” Curry told Complex, adding:

The fact that they know who I was with. You can’t do nothing about what the DJ’s playing. But I was like, I got sick of it at a certain point. It’s funny the cameras caught me because that was from the soul.

Peter Rice, the onetime chairman of Walt Disney Television and head of 21st Century Fox, has been tapped as the Head of Ceremonies and Content for the LA28 Olympic and Paralympic Games, organizers said Wednesday.

He will be tasked with overseeing the creative vision and physical production of all four ceremonies at the Olympic Games, which run July 14-30, 2028, and the Paralympic Games, which run August 15-27.

“Peter is one of the rare individuals whose expertise seamlessly combines creativity, operational insight and production excellence to deliver Ceremonies that will captivate audiences around the world,” said LA28 president and chairperson Casey Wasserman, to whom Rice will report. “He’s been a leading figure in shaping the modern television and film landscape and is the perfect asset to reimagining the delivery of the Opening and Closing Ceremonies for the digital age, leaving a legacy well beyond the Games.”

The Voice is going to look very different next spring. Not just because of the coaching lineup, but because of the coaching lineup. The Voice has officially revealed their celebrity coaches taking on the infamous red spinning chairs for Season 29: Adam Levine, John Legend, and Kelly Clarkson. For the first time in the show's history, the long-running singing talent show will only employ three coaches.

Season 29, subtitled "Battle of the Champions," will see a slightly different format than cycles past. The three champion coaches will compete in a Triple Turn Competition that will provide the victor with a Battle-round Super Steal that nullifies any rival's attempt to steal a sought-after singer. In the Knockouts, the trio of coaches will bring back two artists each from their past teams to go head-to-head in an In-Season All-Star Competition. The coach who earns the most wins in the face-offs will be guaranteed...

The Voice has continued to remain one of the most popular singing reality shows on American television. Season 29 is set to premiere early next year, and fans are excited to see what the show will serve this time around. Plus, there are about to be some major changes to the format this season.

Season 29 is titled The Voice: Battle of Champions, and it’s going to feature a new format, new advantages, and some Voice alums returning. For the first time in the show’s history, there will be three coaches instead of four. Here’s what we know about the upcoming season and all of its changes.

The Voice is coming back in 2026 — and its bringing some iconic coaches with it. On Tuesday, NBC announced that Kelly Clarkson, John Legend, and Adam Levine will return to their red chairs for Season 29 of the music-competition show, set for next spring.

Season 29 will feature a new format — titled “The Voice: Battle of Champions” — to coincide with NBC Sports’ “Legendary February,” which includes broadcasts of Super Bowl Lx, the Olympic Winter Games, and the NBA All-Star Game.

According to NBC, Clarkson will film The Voice and The Kelly Clarkson Show...

In a move that should surprise absolutely no one who’s been paying attention to the broadcast landscape, The Voice is shaking things up in a big way — and honestly, it’s about time.

Season 29, debuting in Spring 2026, is getting a full-on rebrand: The Voice: Battle of Champions. Sounds intense, right?

Well… it kind of is.

Let’s start with the headline: Kelly Clarkson, John Legend, and Adam Levine are all coming back — and not just as your typical rotating red-chair occupants.

These three are the only coaches in The Voice‘s long history who have actually won the whole damn thing. So NBC looked around and said, “Hey, what if we built a whole season around winners?” Revolutionary!

The Voice has officially been renewed for season 29 and NBC, but there are some changes coming!

Just Jared can confirm that the new season will feature Kelly Clarkson, John Legend, and Adam Levine back as coaches for a Spring 2026 debut on NBC!

This new season will be dubbed The Voice: Battle of Champions. Coaches will be getting 10 artists per team and will feature four major rounds.

Keep reading to find out more…

Scroll down to find out about the four new rounds, direct from NBC!

Blinds: Coaches compete against each other in the “Triple Turn Competition” (vying for the most three-chair turns) with the winner gaining a special advantage in the next round.

Battles: The coach with the most three-chair turns automatically earns a “Super Steal” for the Battles. This coveted prize can only be used once and trumps any other coach’s attempt to steal, guaranteeing a win.

Knockouts:...

Kelly Clarkson, John Legend and Adam Levine are reuniting on The Voice for the first time since Season 16. The trio are set to star as coaches for Season 29 of the NBC show, which will launch in the spring.

This comes as Michael Bublé, Snoop Dogg, Niall Horan and Reba McEntire have been set as coaches for Season 28, which comes out in the fall.

Both seasons are being shot at the same time, hence the early announcement for coaches on Season 29 ahead of Season 28 debuting.

The network also revealed that the show will include various format revamps for Season 29, which is being dubbed The Voice: Battle of Champions.

NBC said Season 29 will be “infused with fast-paced, competitive elements” inspired by NBC Sports, which has Super Bowl Lx, the Milan Cortina Olympic Winter Games and the NBA All-Star Game on the docket in February.

Kelly Clarkson, John Legend and Adam Levine will return as coaches for “The Voice” Season 29.

Clarkson, Legend and Levine, all of whom have served as coaches for multiple seasons of “The Voice” and won at least one season, will return to the NBC singing competition show’s red chairs for the upcoming 29th season, airing in 2026, the network announced Tuesday. The returning coaches will take the baton from Michael Bublé, Snoop Dogg, Niall Horan and Reba McEntire, who will serve as coaches for Season 28 premiering this fall.

The return of the O.G. coaches is only fitting for the 29th season, which will be dubbed “The Voice: Battle of Champions,” as the three coaches make up the only panel in the show’s history comprised entirely of “Voice” winners.

Clarkson will film “The Voice” and “The Kelly Clarkson Show” Season 7 concurrently, and filming schedules for both shows have already been worked out.

“The Voice” is officially set to return for Season 29 at NBC with a format revamp and the coaching lineup set.

Kelly Clarkson, John Legend, and Adam Levine will all return as coaches for Season 29, which will air in spring 2026. Clarkson will film “The Voice” and “The Kelly Clarkson Show” concurrently.

NBC is calling Season 29 “The Voice: Battle of Champions,” named due to the fact the coaching panel is comprised entirely of “Voice” winners. Coaches will enter the competition with 10 artists per team. The new season will feature four rounds, each featuring a “Voice” first. Those are:

–Blinds: Coaches compete against each other in the “Triple Turn Competition” (vying for the most three-chair turns) with the winner gaining a special advantage in the next round.

–Battles: The coach with the most three-chair turns automatically earns a “Super Steal” for the Battles. This can only be used once and trumps any other coach’s attempt to steal,...

Before he became the world’s biggest sellout by performing at a fascist regime’s fake money party, he set a record that really lays bare how Guinness is just a marketing firm for hire: “The World’s Largest Paradise Cocktail.” This dipshit dumped 180 bottles of gin into a tub that’s too small to be a dunk tank and accepted an award for it.

Beyoncé is pulling out all stops — and raising some eyebrows — as she once again attempts to win her first Emmy.

Fresh off her historic first Grammy win for Album of the Year, the Cowboy Carter star's NFL Christmas Day halftime show for Netflix, titled Beyoncé Bowl, has earned four nominations — including two categories where she could take home the award: Best Variety Special (Live) and Best Directing for a Variety Special.

The Emmy has eluded Queen Bey — she has lost eight previous bids (nine if you count Daytime Emmys) — but her campaign for gold is in full swing. You can't get caught in an L.A. traffic jam without seeing billboards for the seven-month-old performance — she has even got posters at the bus stop. But if Emmy voters were expecting to rub elbows with the global superstar in some cozy 300-seat screening room, well, Beyoncé had a different strategy in...

On July 12, Donald Trump took to Truth Social to threaten stripping his longtime nemesis Rosie O’Donnell of her U.S. citizenship, despite her having been born to American citizens and in the U.S. — something which legal experts say the president does not have the power to do.

Trump has been feuding with O’Donnell since 2006, when the then-lead panelist of “The View” criticized him for taking a moralistic tone toward one of his Miss USA pageant winners after an indiscretion. As rounded up well by Variety’s Daniel D’Addario, O’Donnell’s particular on-air criticism struck an unusually deep chord for Trump.

It wasn’t just that O’Donnell questioned why he should be the moral arbiter of anything; it was that she called out his physical appearance as well, throwing her hair over the top of her head in an imitation of his signature look, and making her mouth into an “o.

Beyoncé has received eight Emmy nominations over the year but the most-award artist in Grammy history is still searching for a TV win.

The Cowboy Carter star will have another crack at an Emmy this year after her Netflix NFL halftime show Beyoncé Bowl was nominated in Outstanding Variety Special (Live), going head-to-head with both SNL50: The Anniversary Special and SNL50: The Homecoming Concert.

It marks an interesting battle between one of the biggest pop stars in the world and a TV special that featured more A-list celebrities and former SNL stars than could fit in Studio 8H.

Other nominees in the category include The Apple Music Super Bowl Lix Halftime Show

Starring Kendrick Lamar and The Oscars.

According to Deadline, The Voicehas been left out of the Primetime Emmys' Outstanding Reality Competition Program category for the first time since its second season in 2012. Since then, The Voice has been nominated in the category every year, and has won in 2013, 2015, 2016, and 2017.

The NBC show has been usurped in the Outstanding Reality Competition Program category by Survivor, which returns after missing the cut last year.

It marks a step change for the unscripted world with Peacock’s The Traitors also competing again after winning last year.

The other nominees in the category are RuPaul’s Drag Race, The Amazing Race and Top Chef.

Esta secuela animada, todavía sin título oficial y con estreno previsto próximamente en cines, se encuentra en plena fase de desarrollo y, según ha trascendido, los productores están en conversaciones con posibles guionistas y directores, y se espera que en breve se anuncie el elenco.

There’s never a dull moment with Grok, the chatbot from Elon Musk‘s xAI, which he has consistently called the “smartest” AI in existence despite its forays into racial conspiracy theories, tendency to speak in the first person as Musk himself, and recent output of what it termed “Hitler fanfic.”

Last week, xAI debuted the latest version of the bot, Grok 4, which Musk bizarrely claimed would be able to “discover new technologies,” perhaps as soon as this year. But today, he proudly unveiled an update to the model that pointed toward rather different applications.

Sabrina Carpenter is as good as any current pop star at cultivating controversy and attention — the latest evidence was the now-subsided furor over her absurd Man’s Best Friend album cover, which seems to take cues from Spinal Tap’s Smell the Glove. “She’s leaning into it and laughing about it at the same time,” says Angie Martoccio, who profiled Carpenter for her recent Rolling Stone cover story — which revealed that image aside, the singer’s true obsession is music.

“I wasn’t aware that she was a full-on music nerd,...

Pratt has starred in different animated films, including 2020's Onward, 2023's The Super Mario Bros. Movie, and 2024's The Garfield Movie.

Akon‘s plan to build a $6 billion Akon City in Senegal, supported by his own Akoin cryptocurrency, is not working out. Even the best-laid plans, amirite?

The 2018 proposal imagined a virtuous cycle of economic investment in the Republic of Senegal. Graphic representations depicted curving skyscrapers, as both singer and country cultivated comparisons to the Wakanda of Black Panther.

Now the BBC has officially confirmed what anyone following the story has long suspected: It’s not going to happen. Instead, the singer and his home country will focus on a more “realistic” project.

“The Akon City project no longer exists,” according to Serigne Mamadou Mboup, the head of Senegal’s tourism development body, Sapco. “Fortunately, an agreement has been reached between Sapco and the entrepreneur [Akon] Alioune Badara Thiam. What he’s preparing with us is a realistic project, which Sapco will fully support.”

Before it was called off, construction had got...
