It’s been a big year for soap star Mike Manning. After snagging the role of Smitty on CBS’ latest soap Beyond The Gates and attending the Human Rights Campaign dinner in Los Angeles, Manning has now checked something special off his bucket list.

This Is What Dreams Are Made Of

Last month, Manning announced that he was going to San Diego Comic Con to premiere his new film Unexpected Treasures. The world-famous convention was held at San Diego Convention Center over the weekend, and Manning documented his experience on Instagram.

“Comic-Con from start to finish. It’s been on my bucket list forever to speak on a panel and the entire experience was a dream,” Manning wrote in the caption, along with photos of himself and the cast at the panel and with the movie poster.

Manning went on to say, “Bonus: causing mischief as @deadpool. Loved every minute of it,...

In an interview with Michael Fairman TV, Ehrich, who previously portrayed the role of Fenmore Baldwin on “The Young and the Restless,” revealed he’ll be portraying the role of Wesley McKinnon, the younger brother of Caleb McKinnon, played by Mike Manning on Lany Entertainment’s “The Bay.”

“He had written a role, and then I read for him,” Ehrich said of how the role came about, while referring to series creator Gregori J. Martin, who also serves as the show’s head writer and executive producer. “There’s a connection to music with this character, but there’s also a very intricate emotional arc to this role.”

Although he’s unable to provide any further details about his new character, Ehrich shared that he has remained...

Demi Lovato, 32, is stepping into a new chapter with her recent marriage to Jordan Lutes, 34, better known under the name Jutes, on Sunday in Los Angeles.

The pair met when Lutes collaborated with Lovato on her most recent studio album, Holy Fvck, in 2022. The couple started dating soon after and before announcing their engagement in December 2023.

Lovato has had many relationships in the past with fellow musicians, including Trace Cyrus, Joe Jonas, Wilmer Valderrama and Max Ehrich, to whom she was engaged in July 2020.

When discussing her relationship with Lutes on The Howard Stern Show in 2023, Lovato said their bond feels much healthier than past relationships, as many of those had been with older men, which made her feel “gross.”

“We laugh nonstop,” she continued, showing the relaxed nature of her relationship with Lutes. She also highlighted the importance of her relationship beginning as a friendship, which was the foundation...

It’s been nearly 50 years since a certain shark-centric thriller made audiences everywhere scared to get back in the water. But with his new horror film “Dangerous Animals,” director Sean Byrne and his cast want to correct the species’ misrepresentation displayed in “Jaws” by terrifying viewers with the true top of the food chain: the human being.

But not just any old human. In “Dangerous Animals,” Jai Courtney portrays a charming yet brutal serial killer named Tucker who uses the ocean to live out his own killer instincts. Naturally, it’s not the sharks’ fault they’d eat whatever they find submerged amongst the chum. In fact, both the cast and crew went so far as to praise the animals at the film’s Los Angeles premiere at the Egyptian Theatre in Hollywood on Tuesday night — even if they experienced a real-life shark attack on set while making the Australian/Canadian/American co-production.

Demi Lovato married her boyfriend of three years, Jordan Lutes, on May 25. Their relationship was first reported in August 2022, and they went public with the relationship later that month during Lovato’s 30th birthday. Before her romance with Lutes, she described her sexuality as fluid and came out as pansexual.

In a 2023 interview, she recalled her parents’ reaction when she had come out as bisexual to them. While she had built up this fear of her parents not accepting her sexuality, it all turned out to be for nothing. They had a priceless reaction to her coming out, which surprised the singer.
