Following Kendrick Lamar’s recent Super Bowl Lix halftime show, many fans believe singer Carrie Underwood should headline the next show.

Lamar performed at halftime of the Kansas City Chiefs and Philadelphia Eagles championship game, with mixed reactions from viewers.

He featured various songs from his catalog during his set, emphasizing his Drake diss record, Not Like Us, and multiple tracks from his 2024 studio album, Gnx.

In addition to Lamar, Sza joined him on stage for several songs, including their duet Luther and All the Stars.

Several of this year’s halftime show moments went viral, including Serena Williams performing a crip walk dance on stage.

Now that the show is over, Underwood’s fans believe she’d be perfect as headliner for the 2026 Super Bowl due to her association with the NBC network.

You can’t buy Terry Pratchett’s first novel – or rather, you can, but it will cost you. A first edition of the original 1971 version of The Carpet People will set you back somewhere between £400 and £1000; Forum Auctions have one on sale with a guide price of £400 – £600.

But that is the version that was edited and re-published in 1992, after the original had gone out of print. And it is not quite the same book.

In his introduction to the 1992 revised edition, Pratchett said The Carpet People “had two authors, and they were both the same person”. When the Discworld novels began to sell and demand for Pratchett’s debut novel went up, he told the publishers that he needed to do some re-writes, and the resulting new...

Exclusive: Amazon Studios embarked on two entertainment collaborations that mark a real and differentiating commitment to supporting the U.S. Latino community.

The studio has joined forces with Edward James Olmos’ Latino Film Institute and is the exclusive sponsor of its Youth Cinema Project Alumni Program for the 2022-2023 school year. Ycp’s alumni program connects more than 300 program graduates from low-income, under-resourced public schools to hands-on access and learning opportunities across the industry, including mentoring and assistance with college applications.

Amazon Studios is also funding the inaugural Ycp Fellowship, which will provide 15 college-bound students with resources to make a high-quality short film as a team to strengthen their film school applications and scholarship opportunities. The film will then screen at next year’s Los Angeles Latino International Film Festival.
