Mark your calendars: the “Survivor” auction is back!

At the end of the October 30 installment of “Survivor 47,” viewers were treated to a sneak peek of next week’s November 6 episode, in which it was revealed that the auction returns. “I see that word ‘auction’ and my heart explodes,” declares Caroline Vidmar in the preview trailer. This marks the 18th time that the auction will appear on CBS’s reality TV show. However, it’s only the second time in the “New Era,” following a well-received stint in the 45th season that introduced several new twists.

To recap, the “Survivor 45” auction started out with the contestants having to find bamboo tubes around camp containing various dollar amounts. They would then get to use that money at the auction on food and comfort items (plus some nasty fish eyes). Jeff Probst informed the competitors up front that there wouldn’t be any...

During a televised interview, former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin (R) supported the former president and condemned Vice President Kamala Harris.

On Saturday, news anchor Rosanna Lockwood questioned Palin on her show Global News Today with Rosanna Lockwood.

Lockwood asked the ex-Alaska governor why she thought the former president “was fact-checked more than Harris” at the debate.

“I think it’s very obvious over here in the U.S. that our mainstream media is quite liberal, and they would love to see a puppet like Kamala Harris be elected – somebody who is actually controlled not by her own convictions and her own experience and her own vision for this country and the world but for globalists really, not just socialists but communists who want to control the people,” Palin stated.

“And [the former president] is much more independent,...

Suicidal Tendencies have dropped their first studio recording with new drummer Jay Weinberg. The track, “Nós Somos Família,” is a Portuguese-language rework of their 1997 track “We Are Family.”

The new version of the celebratory song sees the Los Angeles thrash vets teamed with a host of Brazilian artists who are featured on the track, including Badauí (CPM22), B Negão (Planet Hemp), João Gordo (Ratos De Porao), Rodrigo Lima (Dead Fish), Supla, Fernanda Lira, Marcão Britto, and Thiago Castanho (Charlie Brown Jr.), plus skateboarders Sandro Dias and Pedro Barros.

Notably, it’s the first studio recording to feature Weinberg since he joined Mike Muir and company earlier this year following the drummer’s unceremonious exit from Slipknot. Weinberg’s worldclass skills are immediately put on display as the track opens with a blitzing soloed drum roll.

The single was recorded at Estúdio Central (formerly RedBull Station) in São Paulo,...

The Trolls are back! Long-lost siblings reunite and troll magic faces a new obstacle in “Trolls Band Together.” Dynamic duo Poppy (Anna Kendrick) and Branch (Justin Timberlake) embark on a new adventure to get Branch’s brothers’ boy band — Brozone — back together to save Floyd (Troye Sivan) from two wannabe superstar singers who secretly leech off of Floyd’s talent.

John Dory (Eric André) catalyzes the reunion of Brozone, who broke up over creative differences when Branch was a baby. The other two brothers — Clay and Spruce — must be tracked down to save Floyd from losing all of his talent to Velvet (Amy Schumer) and Veneer (Andrew Rannells).

An epic soundtrack, complete with a new *Nsync song as well as renditions of old classics and the addition of Camilla Cabello’s voice awaits adventurers ready for “Trolls 3.”

The legendary Nile Rodgers brought a whole lot of funk to the NPR office for the latest iteration of their Tiny Desk Concert series.

Rodgers’ six-song setlist serves as a useful reminder of just how ubiquitous his music is. He and his Chic bandmates kicked things off with their 1978 disco classic “Le Freak,” the whoops and hollers of the vocalists meshing with those from the equally-energized audience.

“Obviously, every song we’re gonna play today is a song I wrote,” Rodgers said between songs with a smile, laughing off the braggadocio of the statement. But bragging is absolutely called for when you’ve written tunes like Diana Ross’ “I’m Coming Out,” Sister Sledge’s “We Are Family,” and Daft Punk’s “Get Lucky,” all of which Rodgers also performed at the Tiny Desk.

Rogers and company then played the Chic song “Good Times,” further proving his massive influence by...

Nile Rodgers and Chic brought the “maximum funkocity” to Nrp’s Tiny Desk, delivering a half-hour set of classics from both the Chic catalogue and songs co-written by Rodgers himself.

The set opened with Chic’s “Le Freak,” and from there went on to feature Diana Ross’ “I’m Coming Out, Sister Sledge’s “We Are Family,” Daft Punk’s “Get Lucky” (all co-written by Rodgers), Chic’s own “Good Times” interpolated with the Sugarhill Gang’s “Rapper’s Delight,” and concluded with the David Bowie/Rodgers collabo “Let’s Dance.

The Masked Singer, the return of Gordon Ramsay’s Kitchen Nightmares, Lego Masters and David Spade-hosted game show Snake Oil are among the slew of unscripted titles leading Fox’s fall schedule as the writers and actors strikes take a bite out of the scripted broadcast season.

There’s plenty more where that came from, according to recently installed President of Unscripted Programming Allison Wallach. But, don’t expect a reality boom for the sake of it, she adds.

Wallach is overseeing her first fall schedule in her new role; the former boss of Fox Alternative Entertainment took over in December, replacing Rob Wade, who was named CEO of the company.

She has got off to a good start. The Masked Singer returned for Season 10 with an opener that featured old faces and a surprise performance by Demi Lovato before bringing in the new crop of secret celebrities.

Jamie Foxx has yet again posted an update, expressing his gratitude to family, friends and followers as he continues to recover following what he has called “an unexpected dark journey.”

Posting on Instagram this week, Jamie Foxx wrote, in part: “You’re lookin at a man who is thankful… finally startin’ to feel like myself… it’s been an unexpected dark journey… but I can see the light… I’m thankful to everyone that reached out and sent well-wishes and prayers… I have a lot of people to thank… u just don’t know how much it meant.” He added hashtags such as #imbackandimbetter and #nobaddays.

This post comes four months after a “medical complication” put Jamie Foxx in the hospital and took him off of Back in Action, the movie that was nearly done filming when the undisclosed incident occurred.

Jamie Foxx offered an update on his health in an Instagram post late Friday night.

“I went to hell and back and my road to recovery had some potholes as well,” he said in the video. “But I’m coming back and I’m able to work.”

Jamie Foxx has psoted his first message on social media since he has hospitalized back in April – sitting atop a hot race car in Las Vegas.

“Thankful for my @betmgm family and a great few nights in Vegas. We got Big things coming soon ,” his message read.

Last week, Foxx was on the Chicago River on a boat waving to his fans while smiling. He seems to have recovered and looked healthy on the boat.

Foxx wore black sunglasses, a black t-shirt and matching black bottoms while hanging out with his friends.

The news of his hospitalization was announced by his daughter Corinne Foxx on Instagram. She shared that her father faced a “medical complication” after filming in London with Cameron Diaz in the new Netflix film Back In Action. She wrote, “We wanted to share that my father, Jamie Foxx, experienced a medical complication yesterday. Luckily, due to quick action and great care,...

Four simultaneous protests occurred in New York City on Friday, the first day of the SAG-AFTRA strike, with Writers Guild, IATSE, local Democratic Socialists of America members and more from other unions joining in on the picket lines and similar protests occurring in Los Angeles.

Amid beating, hot sun and spurts of rain, picketers rallied in front of the Netflix and Warner Bros. Discovery Offices near Union Square, Amazon and HBO in Hudson Yards, Paramount in Times Square and NBCUniversal at 30 Rock.

Among the hundreds that walked the New York picket lines Friday were Ted Lasso’s Jason Sudeikis, Survival of the Thickest’s Peppermint and Sagan Chen, Numb3rs’ David Krumholtz, Grounded for Life’s Kevin Corrigan, Severance stars Zach Cherry and Jen Tullock, as well as Runaway’s actors Ariela Barer and Clarissa Thibeaux.

Thousands of actors have been walking the picket lines across LA and New York today and it’s clear that the SAG-AFTRA strike against the studios is going to continue to wreak havoc on scripted television.

But many of these faces are also now in charge of hosting, exec producing and competing in unscripted series for the broadcast networks, leading to the question of whether shows such as The Voice, Dancing with the Stars and The Masked Singer will be impacted by the strike.

It led network execs, producers and agents to scramble yesterday, making frantic phone calls to talent and figuring out the landscape as it pertains to the walkout.

The short answer, it seems, is that the majority of these shows, which make up the bulk of the fall schedules, will still be able to go ahead with production, thanks to a different contract set up.

Good news about Jamie Foxx’s health keeps coming in, as sources are saying the Academy Award-winning actor “was in good spirits and having a good time” over the weekend while taking some recreational swings at Topgolf.

Adding to the observation about Jamie Foxx’s health, the source told People, “He looks healthy…He didn’t need any physical assistance.” This – coupled with his recent venture out on a boat – is definitely good news for his recovery. His outings come three months after he was taken to the hospital following an undisclosed “medical complication” while shooting Netflix’s Back in Action. The movie was finished with body doubles.

Jamie Foxx also apparently has a strong support system keeping him company and safe following his spring health scare. “There were other guests on the floor, it wasn’t fully private. They came in through a side entrance on the third floor right to their section…...

Months after the TV upfronts when other networks debuted their lineups, Fox has finally announced its 2023 fall schedule. “The Masked Singer” Season 10, the return of Gordon Ramsay’s “Kitchen Nightmares” and Fox’s wholly owned animated comedy “Krapopolis” from Dan Harmon will be leading the network.

Fox will kick off the fall with a Tuesday night dedicated to musical mysteries. “Celebrity Name That Tune,” hosted by Jane Krakowski and band leader Randy Jackson, will return on Sept. 19. It will then be followed by the Season 3 premiere of “I Can See Your Voice.”

But its real season will begin in earnest on Sunday, Sept. 24. That marks the special two-episode premiere of Fox’s latest animated series, “Krapopolis.” From “Rick and Morty” creator Dan Harmon and starring Hannah Waddingham, Richard Ayoade, Matt Berry, Pam Murphy and Duncan Trussell, the animated comedy follows a flawed family of humans, gods and monsters trying to...

After not announcing anything in May, Fox has joined the rest of the broadcast networks in announcing its plans for its fall 2023 schedule — and premiere dates. The slate is strike-proof, filled with animated and unscripted series. That includes the return of The Masked Singer for its 10th season, new series Snake Oil hosted by David Spade, and singing competitions Celebrity Name That Tune and I Can See Your Voice. On the animated side, new comedy Krapopolis is joining Animation Domination. Fox will also air the following series in the 2023-2024 season: 9-1-1: Lone Star, Accused, Alert: Missing Persons Unit, Animal Control, The Cleaning Lady, Doc, Farmer Wants a Wife, Grimsburg, Lego Masters: Celebrity Holiday Bricktacular, Next Level Chef, Rescue: Hi-Surf, and We Are Family.

Aside from its regular “Fox Animation Domination” block on Sunday nights, Fox’s fall schedule is taking a more alternative approach this year as the WGA strike continues to remain an issue for Hollywood.

In similar fashion to other broadcast networks, Fox’s fall schedule was notably missing mention of its scripted series premiere dates. Those programming blocks have instead been filled with unscripted shows like “Celebrity Name that Tune” and “Kitchen Nightmares” and animated series like newcomer”Krapopolis” (which recently got a long overdue premiere date) and mainstays like “The Simpsons,” “Bob’s Burgers” and “Family Guy.”

Hosted by Jane Krakowski and band leader Randy Jackson, “Celebrity Name That Tune” is an all-celebrity edition with games that will test the musical knowledge of athletes, musicians, actors, TV personalities, comedians and Olympians as they play for their favorite charities with a chance to win over $150,000. The show is produced by Fox Alternative Entertainment,...

Fox has finally unveiled its fall schedule and, as expected, it’s full of unscripted series and animated shows.

The network once again eschewed plans to launch its fall schedule in May, as the other broadcast networks did. Last year, the network unveiled its 2022/23 schedule in the first week of June.

The fact that Fox is leaning entirely on reality shows and animated series, as well as wrestling, is not a surprise given the fact that the writers strike, which is in Day 71, has disrupted production, as well as the threat of an actors strike.

It has parked its lineup of scripted series including 9-1-1: Lone Star, The Cleaning Lady, Accused, Alert: Missing Persons Unit, Animal Control and new series such as Doc and Rescue: Hi-Surf for the time being.

The biggest changes to its 2023/24 schedule on the unscripted side is the move of Lego Masters from Wednesday night to...

Hollywood star Jamie Foxx has been photographed in public for the first time since enduring a sudden medical complication that led to his April hospitalisation.

Foxx was recently seen in a boat on the Chicago River, reports Variety. Foxx appeared to be healthy in the footage, throwing a peace sign to the cameraman. He was onboard with several other guests.

TMZ shared footage of the actor from the boat ride. Foxx was admitted to an Atlanta hospital in April after facing a “medical complication.”

His daughter, Corinne Foxx, confirmed the situation at the time: “Luckily due to quick action and great care he is already on his way to recovery. We know how beloved he is and appreciate your prayers. The family asks for privacy during this time.”

The new footage of Foxx marks his first public appearance since, seemingly affirming that the actor is on his road to recovery.

Jamie Foxx is out and about this weekend and made his first public appearance since suffering a “medical condition” that had the actor hospitalized.

As the Django Unchained star recovers from the incident, TMZ caught Foxx cruising on a boat and waving at onlookers giving fans their first glimpse of the actor in months. Foxx was seen aboard the boat on the Chicago River with other guests accompanying him.

It was back in April when Foxx’s daughter Corrine issued a statement confirming her father had been hospitalized.

“We wanted to share that, my father, Jamie Foxx, experienced a medical complication yesterday, (April 11),” read the statement. “Luckily, due to quick action and great care, he is already on his way to recovery. We know how beloved he is and appreciate your prayers. The family asks for privacy during this time.”

While everyone online wondered how Jamie Foxx was recovering from the scarcely detailed medical emergency that left him hospitalized for some time, his own peers and colleagues couldn’t even get in touch to receive any answers, either. In a recent interview with People, John Boyega said that Foxx only recently, who acts opposite him in the upcoming Netflix film They Cloned Tyrone, began answering his calls.

“He finally picked up the phone. Thank you, bro,” Boyega said at the Hollywood premiere of the film. “He’s doing well. And then,...

Jamie Foxx is headed for full recovery, with new details emerging that he is currently in a Chicago rehab facility, where he reportedly first checked into in late April. This stems from an incident earlier that month described by his family as a “medical complication.”

While the exact conditions of the “medical complication” have yet to be revealed, TMZ notes that “the facility specializes in stroke recovery, traumatic brain injury rehab, spinal cord injury rehab and cancer rehabilitation.” The family has been quiet on the cause, but this information could help hush some of the rumors going around following the event. Photos obtained by the tabloid point to daughter Corinne, in addition to other family members, being with Jamie Foxx over the weekend to support him as he continues his rehab.

“We are thrilled to be developing ‘We Are Family’ with Jeff Apploff and our friends at Fox Entertainment,” Jamie and Corinne said in a statement.

Updated: The network upfronts are once again front-and-center for the television industry as major players gather in New York May 15-17 for the springtime ritual of presenting programming plans for the upcoming TV season.

Upfronts are always a hectic time, but this year it’s even more so because of the writers strike that began May 2. Writers and many actors are sitting out the upfront presentations in solidarity with the Writers Guild of America. The promise of WGA pickets surrounding all major events spurred Netflix to make a hasty decision to switch to a virtual presentation rather than an in-person event at the company’s Paris Theater.

As content chiefs outline their plans for the 2022-2023 television season, here is a running list of new drama and comedy series orders handed out by ABC, Disney, CBS, Warner Bros. Discovery, NBC, Fox, the CW and other major players in the upfront.

Jamie Foxx is looking to get back into the spotlight as soon as possible, as it was just announced that he and his daughter Corinne will be co-hosting the game show We Are Family, set to premiere on Fox next year.

The news comes the week after Corinne Foxx revealed that her father Jamie had been released from the hospital following a “medical complication.” The details of that episode have yet to be disclosed, leading to much speculation as to what happened with Jamie. Corinne Foxx, who has been the de facto spokesperson for Jamie, didn’t help matters much when she announced that he had actually been out for some time, posting on Instagram, “update from the family: Sad to see how the media runs wild. My Dad has been out of the hospital for weeks, recuperating. In fact, he was playing pickleball yesterday! Thanks for everyone’s prayers and support!

Jamie Foxx and daughter Corinne Foxx have announced their next project, days after Corinne announced her dad was out of the hospital after his mysterious illness. The new show, called "We Are Family," is a music-centric game show that will premiere on Fox in 2024. Jamie, 55, and Corinne, 29, previously teamed up to host Fox's "Beat Shazam." Jamie has hosted that show since 2017, with Corinne serving as the show's DJ

According to a statement from Fox, "We Are Family" will feature nonfamous relatives of celebrities performing duets with their family member, whose identity will remain hidden. The audience of 100 contestants will try to guess the celebrity and can ultimately win up to $100,000 each. Fox said the celebrities will range from "musicians and professional athletes to actors and beyond." Jamie is an executive producer on the series as well.

Jamie Foxx is already planning his return to TV.

On Monday, Fox announced the actor will host a brand new game show, “We Are Family”, along with his daughter Corinne Foxx, People reported.

The show is a musical guessing game in which contestants must guess which mysterious celebrity a non-famous person is related to.

A different celebrity and their relative will appear in each episode, with the famous person’s identity hidden from contestants and viewers, as clues as given.

The studio audience will be vying to win a cash prize of up to $100,000 for guessing the name of the celebrity.

It’s a family affair at Fox, as Oscar-winner Jamie Foxx and his daughter, producer and activist Corinne Foxx, are set to host the brand new music-centric game show We Are Family. The show was announced today (May 15) by Allison Wallach, President, Unscripted Programming, of Fox Entertainment, as part of the network’s Upfront Presentation at the Manhattan Center. We Are Family will see non-famous relatives of celebrities performing duets with their hidden famous family member while a studio audience comprised of 100 contestants plays through multiple rounds of clues and gameplay. Players can win up to $100,000 each by correctly guessing which celebrity the performer is related to before they are revealed. Celebrities appearing on We Are Family will range from musicians and professional athletes to actors and beyond. The series will be co-produced by Apploff Entertainment and Fox’s in-house unscripted studio, Fox Alternative Entertainment, which created the program. Jeff Apploff...

It looks like Fox is taking a wait-and-see approach to the Hollywood Writers strike.

The network on Monday picked up more series for the 2023-24 season but didn't announce a fall schedule.

CBS and NBC announced their fall plans last week, with ABC and The CW to follow this week, but it looks like Fox is holding off on confirming which shows will be airing in the year's final months.

This isn't much of a change from last year when Fox held off on a fall schedule until June.

Given the work stoppage due to the Wtiers Strike, there's a good chance many of the network's scripted shows won't be available for a fall bow.

As a result, the fall schedule will likely be governed by what happens in the coming weeks regarding the strike.

"Rather than announce a schedule today that we may not be able to meet, we're...

Fox unveiled its 2023/24 programming slate this morning and the writers strike was front and center.

The network, which, once again, didn’t unveil a schedule, said that it has a “solid” contingency plan given the current situation between the WGA and the AMPTP.

Fox Entertainment CEO Rob Wade said, “Obviously, nobody wants this strike and our thoughts go out to the writers at the moment. But we feel very confident in our schedule and our ability to pivot as and when necessary. Current there are no changes to the schedule but as the summer continues, we’ll look at that carefully and make the right decisions going forward.”

Wade said that it will have originals throughout the year including a slew of unscripted titles.

“We just went through a global pandemic and three years ago, we had original programming starting 16 days after the Covid pandemic began with our iHeart special.

Ahead of its Monday afternoon Upfront presentation, Fox did not unveil a fall schedule but instead released its overall line-up of programs for the entire 2023-24 TV season.

With the Writers Guild of America strike creating uncertainty about when production on shows might resume, and since no returning or new scripted Fox dramas have episodes in the can, the network said it would lock into a fall schedule at a later date.

For the second straight year, Fox is not releasing a fall schedule at its upfront presentation. Whenever the network does announce its plans, it will include a healthy dose of unscripted programming.

The broadcaster did release its slate of primetime series for the 2023-24 season Monday morning, and it features near parity between the number of scripted (13) and unscripted (12) shows. The latter category includes renewals for Farmer Wants a Wife and Special Forces; new game shows Snake Oil, hosted by David Spade, and We Are Family, hosted by Jamie and Corinne Foxx and from the same producers as Beat Shazam; and the returns of I Can See Your Voice, which took the 2022-23 season off, and Gordon Ramsay’s Kitchen Nightmares, last seen on Fox way back in 2014 — when it shared space on the schedule with the first seasons of Brooklyn Nine-Nine and Sleepy Hollow.

For the second year in a row, Fox is not releasing a fall schedule ahead of its upfront presentation.

Fox did the same thing in 2022, opting instead to announce their content slate for the upcoming broadcast season but holding off on announcing a formal schedule until a later date. Last year, the move came as the network was still waiting on decisions on the dramas “9-1-1” and “The Resident.” But with the latter show canceled and the former moving to ABC, this year’s move comes as the writers’ strike enters its third week.

Networks like CBS and NBC have already announced their fall lineups, but whether or not any primetime scripted shows across all the networks debut as scheduled remains to be seen as the strike drags on.

“Obviously nobody wants this strike and our thoughts go out to the writers at the moment,” said Fox Entertainment CEO Rob Wade...

Jamie Foxx is hosting another game show for Fox.

The actor, who has been recovering from experiencing a medical complication, and his daughter Corinne Foxx are hosting guessing game show We Are Family.

The series will premiere in 2024, giving Foxx plenty of time to recover. Corinne Foxx recently revealed that Foxx was out of the hospital and playing pickleball.

It comes after Foxx was replaced by guest host Nick Cannon for the latest season of Beat Shazam.

Showcasing non-famous relatives of celebrities performing duets with their hidden famous family member, We Are Family will feature a studio audience entirely comprised of 100 contestants playing through multiple rounds of clues and gameplay to win up to $100,000 each by correctly guessing which celebrity the performer is related to before they are revealed.

Jamie Foxx and his daughter Corinne Foxx are expanding their relationship with Fox, with the duo set to co-host the music game show “We Are Family,” which has been ordered to series at the broadcaster.

The series was announced just ahead of Fox’s upfront presentation to advertisers in New York. It comes as Jamie is still believed to be recovering from a “medical complication” that left him hospitalized on April 12. Most recently, Corinne stated that her father had been out of the hospital “for weeks,” as of May 12.

Jamie is also the host of the Fox music game show “Beat Shazam,” with Corinne serving as the show’s DJ.

Jamie Foxx and his daughter, producer Corrine Foxx, will host a new music-centric game show called “We Are Family” for Fox, Allison Wallach, President, Unscripted Programming, of Fox Entertainment announced Monday.

The series, which will premiere in 2024, will showcase non-famous relatives of celebrities performing duets with their hidden famous family member. The entire studio audience will be entirely comprised of 100 contestants playing through multiple rounds of clues and gameplay to win up to $100,000 each by correctly guessing which celebrity the performer is related to before they are revealed.

Jamie Foxx, Hannah Waddingham, Will Arnett and “Shameless” producer John Wells are among the big names set to bring their talents to Fox’s 2023-24 programming slate. Whether the broadcast network’s next TV season will begin this fall, however, remains unclear.

In an unusual and astute turn, Fox opted to go vague ahead of their upfronts presentation to advertisers Monday, not promising new programming for the fall as the writers’ strike puts most productions on pause.

“Rather than announce a schedule today that we may not be able to meet this fall, we will hold back until we have a better handle on what programming will be available,” Executive Vice President of Program Planning and Content Strategy for Fox Entertainment Dan Harrison said in a conference call. Executives repeatedly emphasized that the Covid-19 pandemic taught the network “how to pivot and be flexible.” Fox will be using the same...

Fox Entertainment will have its new CEO, Rob Wade, making his debut at the network’s upfront presentation today. In a sign of continuity, he will unveil the Fox content slate for the 2023-2024 television season but not a schedule. The network first broke with tradition by not presenting a fall grid at the upfront last year; Fox announced fall schedule and premiere dates June 6.

The network did away with unveiling a fall schedule at its May 2022 presentation because, in media companies’ multi-platform pitch to advertisers, that does not have the importance and urgency it once did. That strategy is even more timely this year because of the uncertainty surrounding the networks’ fall schedules amid the ongoing WGA strike.

“One of the big lessons we learned from the pandemic is how to pivot and be flexible. The WGA strike has a similar effect on our business requiring us to be...

Jimmy Fallon cranked up the love for Ariana DeBose’s viral rap from this year’s BAFTAs ceremony, donning a wig, a tan Stetson and strumming a guitar as he nailed an impression of the iconic musician Neil Young — singing “Angela Bassett did the thing.”

“The Tonight Show” announcer Steve Higgins introduced the act on Monday, saying, “Ladies and gentlemen, Neil Young,” and pointing to a darkened center stage. The camera panned to a single yellow light shining down onto a man sitting on a black stool. Although unable to see his face in the shadows, the hat, the long hair, the guitar resting on his leg and a harmonica held below his mouth gave hint to what was to come.

And then Fallon began to sing. Or was it Neil Young? Hard to tell because it was that spot-on! Listen to Fallon in the clip at the top and decide for yourself.

Actress Angela Bassett has simply done the thing once again. After being name-dropped by Ariana DeBose in a rap that opened the BAFTA Film Awards, the ‘Black Panther: Wakanda Forever’ star said that she reached out to DeBose in the aftermath to check in on her.

Bassett’s mention was one of the catchier lyrics in DeBose’s opener. DeBose, who won last year’s BAFTA and Academy Award for best supporting actress for her performance in “West Side Story,” kicked off the British Academy Film Awards on February 19 with a rap that name-dropped several of the evening’s nominees, including directors honoured in debut feature and women competing in both the lead actress and supporting actress categories, reports Variety.

Angela Bassett has simply done the thing once again. After being name-dropped by Ariana DeBose in a rap that opened the BAFTA Film Awards, the “Black Panther: Wakanda Forever” star tells Variety that she reached out to DeBose in the aftermath to check in on her.

“I Dm’d her last night. I did. It was beautiful,” Bassett told Variety senior entertainment writer Angelique Jackson on the red carpet at the NAACP Image Awards on Saturday evening. “I just wanted to make sure she was okay because, you know, it’s a lot of attention. And she is A-Okay.”

Bassett’s mention was one of the catchier lyrics in DeBose’s opener.

Ariana DeBose is speaking out for the first time since her “Angela Bassett did the thing” rap performance at the 2023 BAFTA Awards went viral.

In a preview for an upcoming interview on BBC Radio 2’s “The Zoe Ball Breakfast Show” posted Saturday on TikTok, the “West Side Story” star brushes away the criticism and instead chooses to focus on the love she’s received. Ball’s among DeBose’s fans who loved the performance, saying “it was a woman, singing and dancing, being magnificent, celebrating women onstage.”

“You know what, you might be one of the few [who loved the performance],” DeBose said. “I’ll take it, because you’re my people!”

DeBose, who opened the 2023 BAFTA Awards performing “Sisters Are Doing It For Themselves” and “We Are Family”, as well as an original rap where she shouted out the awards show’s female nominees, shared a bit about how the performance came about.

Ariana DeBose is doing the thing and sharing her thoughts about the reaction to her much-debated viral rap from the recent 2023 BAFTA Awards ceremony.

The Oscar winner took to Instagram on Saturday to post a carousel of images and footage related to her musical performance while recently hosting the BAFTAs. During Sunday’s awards ceremony, DeBose rapped about a number of the nominees and used the line “Angela Bassett did the thing,” leading to widespread social media commentary.

“The internet is wild y’all!” DeBose wrote in her post. “Appreciate all the love.”

Her carousel included footage from the stage of Lizzo’s Thursday concert in Amsterdam, during which the music star told her audience to “shake it off” before twice reciting the now-infamous line about Bassett and seeming to mimic DeBose’s body movement from the awards show.

DeBose’s post also included a tweet from Halle Berry that used the Bassett line,...

The 2023 BAFTAs on Sunday were supposed to be about the awards, but social media is focused on just one musical performance from the evening.

Oscar-winning “West Side Story” star Ariana DeBose performed a medley during the British awards show, celebrating the role of women in entertainment.

Included in the medley were takes on “Sisters Are Doin’ It for Themselves” and “We Are Family”. In between those, though, was an original rap paying tribute to the night’s female nominees.

“All the ladies in the room, supporting and leading all here I presume,” DeBose rapped “Hong Chau; Dolly D; Kerry; and Carey with a C; Dame Emma, I’m so fond; Ana girl,...

Just a day after stealing the show at the 2023 BAFTA Awards, Ariana DeBose has already gained her defenders. Nick Bullen, a producer of the ceremony, has criticized those that mocked the “West Side Story” Oscar Winner’s opening rap performance, calling the criticism “incredibly unfair.”

During the Sunday night ceremony, DeBose performed a medley of the songs “Sisters Are Doin’ It For Themselves” and “We Are Family” onstage with a group of backup dancers. In the middle of her performance, DeBose launched into a rap in which she shouted out the various women nominated and present at the ceremony: “Angela Bassett did the thing, Viola Davis my ‘Woman King,’ Blanchett Cate you’re a genius, Jamie Lee you are all of us.” Her rap, particularly the “Angela Bassett did the thing” moment, immediately went viral, with clips of it flooding Twitter.

BAFTAs awards producer Nick Bullen believes Twitter criticism of Ariana DeBose’s opening number at Sunday’s awards show was “incredibly unfair.”

Speaking to Variety the morning after the telecast, the producer — who was backstage during the London awards ceremony honoring the best movies of the year — shared that the “West Side Story” star “put the whole piece together” with her team, working closely with a musical director and choreographer, and didn’t deserve the vitriol.

DeBose and her back-up dancers burst onto the stage following host Richard E. Grant’s opening monologue. Belting out “Sisters Are Doing It For Themselves” and “We Are Family,” the singer transitioned into an original rap saluting the awards’ female nominees.

“Angela Bassett did the thing, Viola Davis my ‘Woman King,’ Blanchett Cate you’re a genius, Jamie Lee you are all of us,” sang DeBose, who danced her way around the front row...

The West Side Story star put in one of the all-time great berserk musical performances with a bespoke song celebrating, by name, many of this year’s female nominees

If you didn’t watch the Baftas last night, it means you missed one of the all-time great berserk musical performances ever seen: Angela Bassett Did the Thing.

That wasn’t its official name, by the way. Nobody knows what the official name was. Technically it was a musical performance by Ariana DeBose, but it was a performance so gormless, so busy, so deeply and unsettlingly confusing, that to give it a name would only serve to minimise it. Angela Bassett Did the Thing came as the middle part of DeBose’s medley celebrating women. The first part was a full-bore rendition of Sisters are Doin’ It For Themselves; in itself an orgy of spinning and twirling and flung chairs, performed...

Marc Anthony and Nadia Ferreira have officially said “I do!” Et has confirmed that Anthony wed the Miss Universe contestant at the Perez Art Museum in Miami Saturday.

Anthony and ex-wife, Jennifer Lopez’s kids, Max and Emme, 15, were not in attendance.

It was a black-tie affair, with a source exclusively telling Et that the couple’s 250 guests arrived for the ceremony at 7:00 p.m. and partied into the night, with most guests leaving the venue around 4:00 a.m. Ferreira, 23 wore a lace gown by Galia Lahav, while Anthony, 54, meanwhile, was dapper in Christian Dior.
