Pop singer Adele demolished and reconstructed her $58 million Beverly Hills mega-mansion, which she bought from Rocky star Sylvester Stallone in 2022. However, the singer kept one iconic feature – Stallone’s swimming pool statue of his famous boxing character Rocky.
The 18,587-square-foot home has undergone an extensive remodel two years after the Grammy-winning singer bought it with her husband, sports agent Rich Paul. Adele, who has not yet moved into the estate, is paying millions for significant renovations.
One prominent remnant of Stallone’s ownership is the outdoor swimming pool area featuring his iconic, life-sized sculpted statue of Rocky Balboa, the character from his popular film franchise. Last year, Stallone told the Wall Street Journal he had planned to take the statue, but Adele “really wanted” to keep it.
When Adele acquired the home, it already had an enormous footprint with eight bedrooms and 12 bathrooms. However, the singer has expanded it further...

Nobody is immune to the bewitching charm of Adele, not even Hollywood A-listers, the likes of which include Emma Watson and Emma Thompson.
One of the world’s best-selling music artists, Adele had celebrities swooning over her at one of her sets in ’21 right after the dreadful pandemic; people were dancing without inhibitions like there was no tomorrow after being completely enthralled by the Skyfall artist’s powerful voice.

Conjoined twins Abby and Brittany Hensel publicly announced Abby’s marriage with a new video on social media on Thursday. Abby married husband Josh Bowling, a U.S. Army veteran, in 2021. The twins, 34, kept the news private until the marriage was confirmed through official records obtained in March.
The video shows Abby and Brittany, arms around Josh’s shoulders, swaying to a remix of Adele‘s “Rolling in the Deep” on the dimly lit dance floor at the Jerome Event Center in Delano, Minnesota. The twins also seemed to clap back at critics in a separate video posted on the same day.
The sisters captioned a video montage of them getting ready for the wedding with, “We know you think you know us,” with two heart emojis and “#sisterhoodgoals.” The video featured the song “Collide” by Justine Skye, using the lyrics, “I know you think that you know me/But you...

The Grammys are handed out every year by the Recording Academy, an organization composed of music professionals representing different genres across the industry. For multiple years their nominations for Album of the Year were decided by clandestine nomination review committees, but the academy got rid of most of those in 2021, so now the decisions are made entirely by members at large. Scroll down for our latest racetrack odds, which are based on the combined predictions of Gold Derby users. Those odds are constantly changing, so we’ll be updating this list throughout the season.

Not everyone in the industry appreciates the Grammys, though. At the 2021 awards The Weeknd didn’t get a single nomination despite an acclaimed album (“After Hours”) and a song (“Blinding Lights”) so popular that Billboard ranked it as their number-one single of 2021 and the number-one song of all time.

Who will win Record of the Year at the 2025 Grammys? This award goes to the artists, producers, and engineers of the year’s best single. That’s where this differs from Song of the Year, which goes specifically to songwriters. Though this award is not technically a popularity contest, commercial success is typically a major factor, like Miley Cyrus‘s reigning champion “Flowers,” a blockbuster that spent several weeks atop the Billboard Hot 100. So will the next winner be a big hit as well? Scroll down to see our official racetrack odds, which are calculated based on the combined predictions of Gold Derby users. The odds are always changing, so we’ll be updating this list as the season progresses.
For most of history there were five Grammy nominees in the Record of the Year category, same as there were for Album of the Year, Song of the Year, and Best New Artist.

Many famous artists such as Adele, Sam Smith, and Paul McCartney made tunes for 007 movies. When Madonna wrote her James Bond theme song, she wanted to bring the Cold War spy into the modern era with a certain genre of music. The tune is a touch on the divisive side. Here’s why it deserves a lot more love than it gets.
Madonna wanted to make James Bond ‘get techno’
Madonna wrote and performed the titular song from the James Bond thriller Die Another Day. During a 2002 interview with CNN, Madonna was asked if she felt that the people behind James Bond expected her to accept their offer to write a 007 theme song. “Well, no, I hemmed and hawed about it for a while because just for that reason though,” the “La Isla Bonita” singer said. “Everybody wants to do the theme song of a James Bond movie,...

The James Bond franchise has come a long way, with 6 different actors portraying the iconic character til now, and Daniel Craig being the latest actor to portray the role of Special Agent 007. However, many fans of the age-old spy franchise believe that Pierce Brosnan is the greatest actor ever to don the role. The Irish actor became synonymous with the role and he attracted immense love and following from the fans of the franchise.

2024 has been an unusual year for music breakouts. While we’ve seen a number of new artists hit the charts for the first or second time, a lot of them could potentially veer into one-hit wonder territory — where they as artists aren’t as prominent as the songs they managed to hit it big with. Looking ahead to the upcoming Grammys, this is quite an issue in the Best New Artist category, where the academy often snubs perceived one-hit wonders in favor of acts who have already demonstrated some staying power. There’s one artist, though, who has moved the public conversation this year with her breakthrough — if she’s eligible for the award.
Sabrina Carpenter has been bubbling up for a while, but she finally had a real hit in 2023 with “Nonsense.” It wasn’t really a smash, though, only peaking at number-56 on the Billboard Hot 100. Still, the...

Billie Eilish’s third studio album, “Hit Me Hard and Soft,” was released May 17, yet it seems like everyone is still on a high about it. The singer-songwriter’s new record has been a huge commercial success, and it has also managed to captivate critics too, with many hailing it as the best of the year and Eilish’s brightest work yet. The album’s run has just started, but it is already a possible ticket for Eilish to score her second Album of the Year win at the Grammys.
A second win for Eilish would definitely be impressive, but not shocking. Throughout her short career, she has already taken home nine Grammys, six of those being in the general field. She’s one of the few people to win the awards for Record and Song of the Year twice, and she did so with three different songs, showing that...

Adele paused her Las Vegas show on Saturday to respond to a homophobic heckler in the crowd.
Per footage on social media also obtained by SkyNews, an audience member at Adele’s June 1 show could reportedly be heard yelling, “Pride sucks!” as the singer chatted with the audience between songs. The day marked the first day of Pride Month, an annual celebration for the LGBTQ community.
“What was that? Did you just say, ‘Pride sucks?’” Adele responded. “Did you come to my fucking show and just say that Pride sucks? Are you fucking stupid? Don’t be so fucking ridiculous.”
She added, “If you got nothing nice to say, shut up, all right?”
The singer’s comments were met with cheers from the rest of the audience.

One customer clearly picked the wrong artist to mess with.
During Adele’s Saturday night concert in Las Vegas at Caesar’s Palace, she bantered with the crowd in-between songs, her usual style. That’s when she was interrupted by a heckler in the crowd yelling, “Pride sucks!”
“What was that? Did you just say, ‘Pride sucks?’” Adele said, per the social media footage below. “Did you come to my f–king show and just say that Pride sucks? Are you f–king stupid? Don’t be so f–king ridiculous.”
She continued, “If you got nothing nice to say, shut up, all right?”
Adele has been a strong LGBTQ+ supporter. Last year, she celebrated Pride Month during her residency by wearing a black dress with a rainbow flag train and Pride-themed confetti.

While Henry Cavill awaits his destiny as Agent 007 in the James Bond films, the producers are reportedly looking at changing up a different aspect of the legendary spy franchise. According to a source, producer Barbara Broccoli is looking at artists such as Bruno Mars and The Weeknd to produce the theme song of the next Bond film.
The James Bond films have always featured an original song for their grand opening credits sequences. Three of these songs have won Oscars in the past, including Adele’s ‘Skyfall’, Sam Smith’s ‘Writing’s on the Wall’, and Billie Eilish and Finneas O’Connell’s ‘No Time To Die’. The new Bond film might have a change in style due to the artists the production is eyeing.

How do we know what music is actually good? Many fans look to critics. Sure, some might label music journalism as irrelevant in assigning value to art, but the reality is, critics do at least partly contribute to the consensus on the quality of music. That’s why, whether it is during a civilized conversation or the most rabid Twitter stan war, an album’s Metacritic score typically comes up. So award show voters must take those top albums more into consideration than others, right? To be a big awards player, doesn’t your album need to be somewhat acclaimed?
Let’s take a look at the past three Grammy ceremonies as examples. Since these are ceremonies with no nomination review committees involved, the results are a more accurate, unfiltered reflection of what voters think. According to Metacritic, anything below 81 is not “universally acclaimed,” so that’s how I’ll sort it out.

Madonna is the best dance-pop singer ever. However, Madonna still produced some of the best pop ballads to grace the Billboard Hot 100. Here’s a look at her five best slow songs.
5. ‘Live to Tell’
“Live to Tell” has a certain mystery that few Madonna ballads possess. The song’s theme of internality was the first moment in Madonna’s career where it felt like she might have hidden depths. Many emotional Madonna projects owe a depth of gratitude to “Live to Tell,” such as “Take a Bow,” “Don’t Tell Me,” and Ray of Light.
Perhaps the best part of “Live to Tell” is its signature synthesizer riff. It’s one of the Material Girl‘s best musical moments. While the song itself is innocuous, the “Like a Virgin” singer courted controversy by performing the song while feigning crucifixion.
4. ‘Crazy for You’
The best songs portray a love that sounds almost desperate.

Billie Eilish may not have debuted at number-one on the Billboard 200 with her new album “Hit Me Hard and Soft,” but she still achieved some personal-best metrics. The album accumulated 339,000 equivalent album units, her highest total ever in a single week. Of those units, 191,000 came from traditional album sales, also her strongest result. And the lead single, “Lunch,” debuted at number-five on the Billboard Hot 100, the highest debut of her career yet. Given Eilish’s stellar track record in top Grammy categories, could we then see “Lunch” win her Record of the Year and Song of the Year again?
Eilish has already made history in both categories. She won Record of the Year in 2020 and 2021 for “Bad Guy” and “Everything I Wanted,” respectively, making her just the third artist to win that award in consecutive years; that feat had previously been achieved by Roberta Flack (“The First Time Ever I...

With Katy Perry leaving American Idol as one of the judges, fans are making guesses at who will replace her. Many fans have already made a wish list with names like Jon Bon Jovi on them. However, there is a new guess and it is based on something a megastar has said this year.
Here is who some think might be joining American Idol next season.
Will Adele Join American Idol As New Judge?
A Reddit post was started with an embed from a social media post. In that post, someone claimed that Adele was considering joining American Idol as Katy Perry’s replacement. The reasoning given is that she wants to have a second baby and wants something more laid back (that still pays well) than her Vegas residency.

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.

While backstage at the Ivor Novello Awards in London on Thursday, Lana Del Rey detailed which of her songs was written — and rejected — for a James Bond film.
“I mean, how has that not happened yet?” Del Rey replied when asked by BBC if she would consider writing a theme song for the franchise. The Born to Die singer then sang the chorus to her track “24” — which was one of the 14 songs that appeared on her 2015 album, Honeymoon — before adding, “I wrote that for them.”

It’s been about a decade since Twenty One Pilots came oozing out of Columbus, Ohio, with their resolutely Midwestern, amicably dystopian 2015 hit “Stressed Out,” an emo-rap-industrial-pop slab of sing-songy melancholy that touched enough of a nerve to catapult the previously unknown duo into Adele/Beyoncé echelons of chart success. Twenty One Pilots’ post-genre sound was well-timed for the full blossoming of the streaming era. Blurryface (the album that contained “Stressed Out”) went from reggae-lite to ukulele twerpiness to pop-punk to piano-pop to Edm. Adding some value amidst all the playlist-brained vertigo,...

Over the past week or so, Apple Music has slowly unveiled the titles included in its list of the “100 best albums.” Today, the top 10 albums were revealed, with Miss Lauryn Hill’s The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill claiming the No. 1 spot. Rounding out the top five are Michael Jackson’s Thriller; The Beatles’ Abbey Road; Prince’s Purple Rain; and Frank Ocean’s Blonde.
The top 10 also includes Stevie Wonder’s Songs in the Key of Life; Kendrick Lamar’s good kid, m.A.A.d city (Deluxe Version); Amy Winehouse’s Back to Black; Nirvana’s Nevermind; and Beyoncé’s Lemonade.
In all honestly, it’s a pretty safe top 10, especially considering the drama that unfolded when Apple unveiled picks 11-20 and slotted Adele’s 21 at No. 15 and Taylor Swift’s 1989 (Taylor’s Version) at No. 18 — ahead of albums like Dr. Dre’s The Chronic, The Beach Boys’ Pet Sounds,...

Sony Music, the largest music publisher in the world and the home of artists like Beyonce and Adele, has contacted more than 700 firms, including Google, Microsoft, and OpenAI, to determine if they have used its songs to develop artificial intelligence systems.
The publisher wants to stop training, developing or making money from AI using Sony songs without permission, the BBC reports.
In a letter, Sony said it has “reason to believe” that the addressees “may already have made unauthorized uses” of its music. Sony Music says it will enforce its copyright “to the full extent permitted by applicable law.”
The complaint mirrors other concerns about AI tools, which have to be “trained” using existing materials.
For example, the BBC says, a chatbot might have “learned” to give a particular written style by being shown billions of books.

What do you do when a gesture of admiration for your favorite celebrity doesn’t quite go as planned? For Harvey Kindlon, a heartfelt token of adoration towards Hollywood starlet Megan Fox, who just turned 38 yesterday, once resulted in an unforeseen viral moment.
Sadly, the Holiday in the Sun actress once turned down her young fan who tried to give her a sign of his love in front of a horde of paparazzi, who were obviously taking pictures of the entire event. It was way back in 2009 in London, when the then 11-year-old Kindlon stood among millions of fans, clutching a yellow rose for Fox, who soared to fame as Mikaela Banes in the hit flick, Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen.

Paul McCartney is the first U.K. musician to become a billionaire, it has been revealed, as the Sunday Times unveiled all the famous faces on its wealth-tracking Rich List for 2024.
The top 350 are not just your typical hedge fund owners and oil moguls — the list includes the King, the British Prime Minister and even a Catholic priest. But entertainment has its place on the Rich List. Here are some of the biggest names you might recognize.
None other than Salma Hayek is the most significant name in showbiz near the top of the list. She and her billionaire businessman husband François-Henri Pinault came in at an eye-watering 31st with 6.147 billion pounds in fashion and film. (Pinault is CEO of Kering, a luxury goods corporation that owns brands such as Gucci, Balenciaga, Bottega Veneta and Alexander McQueen.)

What happens when a horror movie doesn't know it's a horror movie? You get "Passengers," the 2016 sci-fi film starring Chris Pratt and Jennifer Lawrence. Directed by Morten Tyldum and written by Jon Spaihts, the movie takes place aboard a spaceship transporting thousands of people to a distant planet in the aftermath of Earth's ecological collapse. When a malfunction causes one of the passengers, Jim (Pratt), to awaken from hypersleep 30 years into the vessel's 120-year journey, he's left with a dilemma: Should he live out the rest of his days on the ship alone, end his life prematurely, or wake up Aurora (Lawrence), the hot lady he's crushing on, and lie about what happened for as long as possible? I'm betting you've guessed what he does.
Jim's decision was meant to be a surprise. However, much like what happened with Matthew Vaughn's "Argylle," the film's "twist" was spoiled in reports long before its release.

And Beltran had to juggle Levi and Amelink.
Join the discussion with Haley Whitmire White, Lucy Peel, and Jasmine Blu!
What were your overall thoughts on this episode?
Haley: It was fine for a filler episode. Nothing terribly exciting happened, but it set up several potential big storylines. A couple of moments made me think we're in for some pretty big reveals towards the end of the season.
Lucy: I liked seeing different pairings here. Link and Beltran, Webber and Adams, Kwan and Griffith. Otherwise, I was underwhelmed. I am sure we're in for a big season finale, possibly disaster-centric.
Jasmine: I think this has been an interesting season because it feels like a "filler season." They haven't...

American Idol fans are not happy the judges have kept a certain contestant. There has been a lot of great talent in the current season of the singing competition. However, fans are giving their opinions on certain artists and why they think they are still there. The competition is down to the nitty gritty and the best singers. At least that is what is supposed to be at this point in the competition. Fans think otherwise.
Judges Favoring Contestants
There has been speculation that the judges are keeping contestants around due to their relationships with famous people. However, Luke Bryan debunked that.
“I think if we start sending people through just because they have a connection with any form of music or if there’s somebody famous, if we start sending people through that don’t seem like they’re worthy of it, I think that America will call us out on that.

Hey, "American Idol" fans. Tonight, May 5, 2024, another new Live performance/results episode for American Idol's current season 22 did indeed hit the air, and we found out who made it into the top 5 at the end of it. Tonight's theme was Adele night. So, each of the top 7 contestants sang one song from Adele's catalog. They also sang a dance classic song. R&b star Ciara showed up to mentor them. The celebrity judges: Lionel Richie, Katy Perry and Luke Bryan were all on hand. Jack Blocker kicked off the performances by singing, "Long Tall Sally" by Little Richard. Afterwards, Luke said “This is not the kid we knew a couple of weeks ago. You used your voice in a different way. 10 out of 10.” Lionel said, “I don’t know what the heck I just saw.
