Love me some Luther Vandross, but a bit ironic that Kendrick Lamar & SZA's hit "Luther," which just won the Grammy for Record of the Year, is based on a sample of Cheryl Lynn & Luther's 1982 duet, which was a cover of Marvin Gaye & Tammi Terrell's 1967 duet = everything old is new again.

Such sad news - Catherine O'Hara was a brilliant comic actress - from SCTV to Christopher Guest films to her recent role on The Studio... RIP :( deadline.com/2026/01/cath...

Ice Cold Execution = unwarranted, inexcusable, indefensible 😡😤🤬

This is some homophobic BS! Why would @netflix.com cancel a highly rated, acclaimed, viral, hit series (that was perfectly set up for S2) after only ONE season? Answer: To bow down to the Trump administration so they approve their WBD buyout/merger deal. deadline.com/2025/12/boot...
