While Taylor Swift moves on to Europe for her blockbuster Eras Tour, new information about her backup dancers has come out.
Swift utilizes 50 truckers to transport staging and costumes and 15 backup dancers, six of whom are male.
Their names are Jan Ravnik, Sam McWilliams, Kameron Saunders, Whyley Yoshimura, Raphael Thomas and Kevin Scheitzbach.
Ravnik, in particular, has had fans’ tongues wagging.

It was a great week for the top two albums on the Billboard 200 albums chart for the tracking week that ended May 23, but for Billie Eilish‘s highly anticipated third album “Hit Me Hard and Soft,” huge personal-best numbers weren’t enough to surpass Taylor Swift‘s “The Tortured Poets Department,” which spent its fifth straight week at number-one. Read more about this week’s chart here at Billboard.com.
“Tortured Poets” was actually up a whopping 45% to 378,000 equivalent album units based on its combined record sales, individual track sales and online streams. As Billboard reports, the gain was due to new digital album and CD variants, plus multiple deluxe CD editions being back in stock. “Hit Me Hard and Soft” achieved 339,000 units, which is Eilish’s best week ever, better even than her blockbuster debut album “When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go?,” which started off with 313,000 units.

Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift are seemingly having a wonderful summer. Swift attended Kelce’s Super Bowl win in February 2024, and he’s now making arrangements to see her as often as he can while she continues performing in “The Eras Tour” across Europe. A new report suggests Swift is staying in a $4 million cottage — and Kelce will likely join her.
Taylor Swift is reportedly staying in a $4 million cottage during the European leg of ‘The Eras Tour’
Taylor Swift spares no expense when it comes to “The Eras Tour” and her relationship with Travis Kelce. Recent reports suggest her European leg of the tour costs $30 million in security alone — and she makes millions of dollars with each three-hour show. With this in mind, it makes sense that Swift chose to stay in a storybook Cotswolds cottage costing her over $4 million while she tours the UK. The cottage is near...

This past weekend, The Cabot theater in Beverly, Massachusetts hosted an event that was billed as An Evening With Richard Dreyfuss + Jaws Screening – but attendees did not expect what they got from legendary actor Richard Dreyfuss when he took the stage. Most of them probably expected the moderator to lead Dreyfuss on an overview of his amazing career, allowing him to discuss not only Jaws (and set the record straight about whether or not he was a jerk on set) but also films like American Graffiti, Close Encounters of the Third Kind, Stand by Me, Stakeout, What About Bob?, or the two that earned him recognition from the Academy: Mr. Holland’s Opus (he earned a Best Actor Oscar nomination for his performance in the film) and The Goodbye Girl (he won the Best Actor Oscar for that one). Instead, Dreyfuss used the event as an opportunity to go on...

Richard Dreyfuss is gonna need a smaller platform.
The actor attended a “Jaws” retrospective screening at the Cabot theater in Beverly, Massachusetts and participated in a post-screening Q&a. However, Dreyfuss used the platform to make negative comments about the trans community, women (he referred to them as submissive and weak), and the #MeToo movement, according to the Boston Globe.
Dreyfuss walked onstage wearing a dress over his clothes, using a cane, and dancing to Taylor Swift’s “Love Story.” It only got weirder from there.
When referencing teenagers transitioning, Dreyfuss said, “It’s not Ok because when the kid’s 15, she’s going to say, ‘I’m an octopus.'”
IndieWire has reached out to Dreyfuss’ representatives for comment.
The Cabot executive director J. Casey Soward issued a formal apology to patrons for Dreyfuss’ outburst onstage.

Just when the loony mother grabbed Emma’s hand, the first episode ended, leaving everyone wondering what happened next. Well, we see Emma panting and rushing her way to the car to see the red spots her mother caused on her flawless white skin. Patricia terrorized and traumatized her two little girls when she lost sleep all those years ago, and now she lies dead in a hospital bed, looking like somebody’s traumatized her instead. The second episode of Paramount Plus’ Insomnia is titled Bad Blood, and if you don’t immediately think about the Taylor Swift song, you are probably the right audience for this show.

It was the feud heard round the world — still is, really. Kendrick Lamar and Drake have traded diss tracks back and forth, and they went beyond petty beefs. Drake accused Lamar of domestic abuse, while Lamar called Drake a “certified pedophile.” In the end Lamar was considered the winner of the war according to Andre Gee of Rolling Stone and Joseph Patterson of Complex UK and Trench Magazine, among others, and their relative commercial performances bear that out, with Lamar’s “Not Like Us” topping the Billboard Hot 100. But could Grammy darling Lamar win more Grammys for so directly calling out another Grammy winner?

Richard Dreyfus Sexist Rant Sparks Apology ( Photo Credit – Wikimedia )
Oscar winner Richard Dreyfus is under fire again over a sexist and homophobic rant that reportedly prompted a Massachusetts theater to issue an apology over the offensive remarks.
It all began when the Cabot hosted the 76-year-old “Jaws” star for “An Evening With Richard Dreyfuss” on Saturday, May 25, before the film’s Massachusetts Theatre screening.
However, things supposedly went off the rails as soon as Richard Dreyfus walked to the stage wearing a dress over his clothes. In a YouTube video taken by an audience member, the actor was seen on stage wearing a floral print dress, shaking his hips to Love Story by Taylor Swift in the background.

The actor took to the stage in a dress backed by Taylor Swift’s Love Story, then reportedly made a number of sexist and transphobic comments
A cinema in Massachusetts has apologised to the audience at a special screening of Jaws and a Q&a with its star, Richard Dreyfuss, who reportedly made a number of sexist and transphobic comments.
Appearing at the Cabot theatre in Beverly, Massachusetts on 25 May, Dreyfuss took to the stage in a house dress to a background track of Taylor Swift’s Love Story, shaking his hips suggestively and brandishing his walking stick like a baseball bat.

Billie Eilish fans shouldn’t expect three-hour concerts anytime in the near future.
Following the release of her third studio album, Hit Me Hard and Soft, the Grammy and Oscar winner took to the music app Stationhead to answer fan questions live.
When asked if she would ever perform a three-hour-long show — similar to what Taylor Swift and Beyoncé have done for the Eras Tour and Renaissance World Tour, respectively — Eilish responded, “I’m not doing a three-hour show, that’s literally psychotic.”
“Nobody wants that,” she could be heard saying in recordings posted on X, formerly Twitter. “You guys don’t want that. I don’t want that. I don’t even want that as a fan. My favorite artist in the world, I’m not trying to hear them for three hours.”
While Eilish didn’t direct her comments at a particular artist, some Swifties questioned if she...

In recent years, “Jaws” star Richard Dreyfuss has come under fire for speaking out on subjects such as Oscar diversity requirements and the use of Blackface.
At a “Jaws” retrospective screening in Beverly, Mass. on Saturday evening, he appeared to take his inflammatory remarks even further as he ranted about subjects reported to include trans people, Barbra Streisand, the MeToo movement and women in general. As attendee Diane Wolfe described it to the Boston Globe, “[Dreyfuss] said that the parents of trans youth, allowing them to transition, was bad parenting and that someday those kids might change their minds.”
In a statement, Cabot executive director J. Casey Soward apologized for not anticipating that Dreyfuss might say provocative things on stage.

Although she didn’t end up topping the charts, Billie Eilish just earned her biggest week ever on the Billboard Top 200. Hit Me Hard and Soft landed on Number Two on the charts this week, just behind Taylor Swift’s Tortured Poets Department.
According to Billboard, Eilish’s 339,000 equivalent album units is the highest in her career, including nearly 200,000 album sales, also a career peak for the 22 year-old singer. This is Eilish’s first studio album to not debut at Number One, due to the record-setting numbers from Swift’s latest release.

A Massachusetts theater is apologizing to its patrons who came to attend a screening of Jaws with star Richard Dreyfuss but instead were subjected to alleged sexist and homophobic comments from the actor over Memorial Day weekend.
Attendees who headed Saturday to The Cabot theater in Beverly, Massachusetts, for what was billed as “An Evening With Richard Dreyfuss + Jaws Screening” were likely anticipating some amusing or insightful anecdotes from the actor about filming the classic Steven Spielberg action blockbuster.
Instead, the Oscar winner went on a freeform rant that, according to social media posts from those in attendance, began while he was speaking about Barbra Streisand and moved into his bigoted perspective on trans youth, the Academy Awards’ inclusion rules and then on to trans kids affirming their gender.
Following the event, attendees quickly took to social media to criticize the actor’s remarks, with some saying they even walked out during the event.

Billie Eilish’s new studio album Hit Me Hard and Soft has debuted at No. 2 on the latest Billboard 200 albums chart, marking the singer-songwriter’s best-selling week ever.
The new Eilish album has 339,000 equivalent album units earned on the chart dated June 1 (for the week ending May 23). That figure represents Eilish’s largest week ever by units earned, and of that sum, 191,000 are traditional album sales, again her best sales week yet.
Billboard also reports that the 191,000 traditional sales figure includes 90,000 in vinyl sales, yet another Eilish best.
The figures handily surpass Eilish’s previous top sales: Her 2019 debut When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go? which registered 313,000 units. Her previous biggest sales week, Billboard notes, was the opening frame of the debut album, with 170,000.

The figures handily surpass Eilish’s previous top sales: Her 2019 debut When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go? which registered 313,000 units. Her previous biggest sales week, Billboard notes, was the opening frame of the debut album, with 170,000.

“It’s official, I left my [heart] in Lisbon. My first time in Portugal and you all made me feel like I was right at home.
“I’ll seriously never forget the way you treated us, the overwhelming love and passion and hands in the air and dancing and how you screamed every lyric!! Muito obrigada.”

In a nearly two-decade career, Taylor Swift had never performed in Portugal…until this weekend.
The superstar singer brought The Eras Tour to Lisbon for two back-to-back, sold-out stops at Estádio da Luz in Portugal’s capital city. It was a weekend Swift said she won’t ever forget — and she’s already committed to coming back.
“When I first walked out on this stage, when I first appeared at the beginning of the show, and I looked out and saw this crowd, you took my breath away,” Swift told an electric and capacity crowd of 64,000 at the first show Friday night. “My heart was beating so fast. You just made me feel so lucky to be here with you tonight. Thank you so much for coming to this show.”

Deadpool & Wolverine will finally bring the Merc with the Mouth and Logan together, and while we're expecting heaps of cameos, there's one we know many of you are eager to see on screen this July.
In case it wasn't already obvious, we're talking about The Hulk. Wolverine debuted in the pages of The Incredible Hulk #180 for an unforgettable clash with the Jade Giant, and Marvel Studios now has the opportunity to recreate that somewhere in the Multiverse.
Offering us an idea of what it might look like is a new fan poster which sees Wolverine and The Hulk in the thick of battle.
As much as we'd love to see this in Deadpool & Wolverine, we wouldn't be surprised if Marvel Studios is saving this for Avengers: Secret Wars. Then again, with The Hulk brought to life with VFX, it might be easy enough to insert the Green Goliath into Wade Wilson and Logan's team-up.

Bianca Censori and Kanye West seem to be keeping a low profile or remain in the news most of the time. A few weeks back, reports claimed that Ye was planning to launch an adult site. Meanwhile, Bianca’s family was concerned about her as they feared Ye might drag her into the adult film business. She has now flown to Australia to spend time with them.

Their weird behaviors draw enough media attention for them to remain relevant online.

Justin Bieber and Hailey Baldwin Bieber are all set to embrace parenthood soon, hopefully strengthening their relationship.

When Taylor Swift took over The AMC at The Grove to debut “The Eras Tour” last October, cars wrapped around the block. With the official kickoff event for what would become a $261.6 million box office hit filling auditoriums with celebrities — while outside hundreds of screaming fans swarmed the luxury mall’s towering parking deck and famed Cheesecake Factory Observational Deck — it seemed as though presidential motorcades had inconvenienced SoCal less than a single night at the movies with planet Earth’s favorite pop star.
No one is complaining about a visit from Taylor Swift, of course; least of all the film lovers who in 2023 rightly hailed her as a dark horse savior of cinema in a dire time. Still, when contrasted with Lady Gaga’s pared-down world premiere for HBO’s “Gaga Chromatica Ball” — a tidy event with an enthusiastic but small line on the sidewalk and a single-block road...

Much like British spy’s tuxedos and gadgets, the theme song of a James Bond film is also essential to the overall Bond experience. From Shirley Bassey’s iconic Goldfinger for Sean Connery’s 1964 classic to Adele’s Skyfall for the best Daniel Craig Bond feature, there has been a plethora of classics over the 25 Bond films.
But there has also been a plethora of acclaimed musicians, who have faced rejection from the Bond creators over the years. This includes Honeymoon creator Lana Del Rey, who wrote a song back in 2015 for Daniel Craig’s penultimate Bond feature.

Steven Spielberg’s 1985 classic that took home 11 Oscar nominations is by no means a feat of mere auteurist filmmaking but one showing exceptional skill and brilliance. Behind the camera, there is none other than Spielberg, even though his inspiration might often come from borrowed sources. As such, the adaptation of Alice Walkerʼs Pulitzer Prize-winning 1982 novel, The Color Purple, couldnʼt have been in better hands than the surgically gifted ones of the venerated director.

Pictures]38 years later, Oprah Winfrey, the star of Spielbergʼs 1985 film took it upon herself to pass on the tradition of transforming the tragic tale of Alice Walkerʼs novel into a work of art for the screen. After much deliberation and struggle, the musical drama produced by Spielberg and Oprah made it onto the screens in 2023 to widespread acclaim.

Singer Sia had given out cash prizes to the players she most enjoyed watching each season.

Taylor Swift has been urged by a BBC nature presenter to reconsider to curtail her “absurd” use of private jets.
Chris Packham, a longtime host of BBC nature programs and a tireless environmental campaigner, spoke out after Swift sent in the lawyers to silence a social media blogger sharing a log of her international jet useage.
The UK’s Daily Mirror newspaper reports that Swift sent a cease and desist letter to Jack Sweeney, who had calculated and shared that Swift travelled 178,000 miles on two private planes in 2023. His strongest ire was reserved for the flights she made this February, making a one-day round trip from Tokyo to Las Vegas and back, to support her boyfriend Travis Kelce at the Superbowl final.
Packham told The Mirror:
“We know that private jets are the single greatest contributor when it comes to jet aviation fuel and the least efficient because they’re carrying one person.

Season 2 already elevated the show with its numerous guest stars as well as the transition of the family sandwich shop into a fine dining establishment.

Charlie Davis proved on Survivor 46 that he is the biggest Taylor Swift fan the show has seen.
It even led to a jury member (Tiffany Ervin) lashing out at him during the final speeches.
But Charlie isn’t ashamed about being a part of the Swifties (Taylor Swift fan group).
During the Survivor 46 season finale, Charlie lost the jury vote to Kenzie Petty.
Had his bestie from the game, Maria Gonzalez, voted for him, it would have created a tie. Ben Katzman also said he would have voted for Charlie to break the tie.
The vote means Charlie likely missed out on winning the $1 million due to how Maria voted. Now that he can share his feelings about what happened in Fiji, Charlie posted a video on social media.

Charlie Puth is reflecting on what it was like having Taylor Swift name drop him in a song lyric.
On her song “The Tortured Poets Department” from her recently released album of the same name, Swift sings, “We declared Charlie Puth should be a bigger artist.” Though Puth has vaguely reacted to the mention on social media, he spoke more in depth about the lyric in an interview with Rolling Stone published Friday.
He recalled that he was first told of Swift mentioning him by a friend who had heard a leak of the song, but he didn’t believe it.
“My brain immediately went to ‘Oh, like in an interview or something. That’s cool. I love Taylor Swift,'” he recounted. But then he thought the mention of his name was AI-generated. “I’m going to wake up tomorrow and it was just a big joke that someone...

Iconic singer Céline Dion is opening up about her battle with a neurological condition that has derailed her performance career. The trailer for her new documentary I Am: Céline Dion, released on May 23, offers a glimpse into the Canadian superstar’s private struggle with Stiff Person Syndrome.
Described by Dion as a “very rare neurological disorder,” Stiff Person Syndrome is a progressive condition that causes severe muscle stiffness and painful spasms and significantly impacts an individual’s physical mobility and even the ability to sing. The rare disorder has prevented the Grammy-winning artist from taking the stage over the past few years.
“My voice is the conductor of my life,” Dion solemnly reveals in the trailer. “I need my instrument.” The 55-year-old powerhouse performer expressed the immense difficulty of canceling shows, admitting, “It’s not hard to do a show, you know? It’s hard to cancel a show. I’m working hard every day,...

“I can’t do that,” Eilish said. “My show would be like a million years long. If I did that, I’d have to cut like every other song that I have — so I’m gonna have to choose, y’all. But I’ll do most of [the songs from the album].”
