Who Is Tyriq Withers? Meet the Reminders of Him Star
Just call Tyriq Withers the internet’s new boyfriend.
“I never signed up for that,” the actor joked during a March 2026 interview with People. “I think the beautiful thing about it is I just show up to these interviews and just bring myself, and I’m just glad people resonate with that. It is validating that you don’t have to be anybody else but yourself.”
While some consider the actor’s breakout role to be his one-episode stint as Aaron in a 2022 episode of Atlanta, Withers also made waves for starring as Cameron Cade in the 2025 horror film Him.
Fans — especially those on TikTok — have continuously praised Withers’ unfiltered nature throughout his rise to stardom.
“I mean, if y’all have me, I’ll be grateful and thankful,” he told People, referring to his new viral internet success. “I don’t know why you’d pick me, but I’m here. I’m here.”
Aside from appearing as Teddy Spencer in the 2025 I Know What You Did Last Summer reboot, Withers has cemented himself as a leading man with his role as Ledger Ward in the 2026 Reminders of Him movie adaptation.
“I think this still is a challenge because you are living in the quiet softness of vulnerability,” Withers told Marie Claire about the film. “That change of pace is always nice. And I think we’re not defined by the type of movie — it’s a testament to both of our abilities to showcase the range.”

Who Are Tyriq Withers’ Parents?
Withers’ father is Leon Withers Jr. and mom is Kimberly Hart. He has a sister named Cayla. His brother, Kionte, died in an April 2021 car accident.
“I’d experienced grief before, but not like this,” he told GQ in a September 2025 interview. “It was just like, ‘F***, take me instead.’ My brother had a son. He was a beautiful father, so soft and sensitive to my nephew. And what am I doing?”
He added, “My partner at the time asked me, ‘What would Kionte want?’ And I came to the conclusion that the best way to serve my family is to continue on this path of chasing my dreams. That gave me purpose. I started looking for him in every script.”

General Hospital Early Spoilers March 16-20: Sonny & Ric Team Up for Revenge Plot!
General Hospital early weekly spoilers for March 16th- 20th expose Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard) and Ric Lansing (Rick Hearst) plotting some payback.
As we always do on early edition day. We start with what is coming the rest of this week. Then we dive into next week.
General Hospital Spoilers Wednesday, March 11th: Justine Plays It Cool with Sonny
So on Wednesday, March 11th on General Hospital, we got Justine Turner (Daya Vaidya) continuing to play it cool. And obviously this is about Sonny. They had their little thing where they were going to be one and done. But obviously Justine’s one night with Sonny isn’t going to be enough for either of them.
We’ll see. Plus, Cody Bell (Josh Kelly) won’t take no for an answer. And I’m betting he wants to take Molly Lansing-Davis (Kristen Vaganos) over to General Hospital because she doubled over in agonizing pain and then passed out cold at Charlie’s. I’ve seen some people on social media asking if she might be pregnant. She is having an endometriosis flare up. If you don’t know what that is, it’s tissue from inside your uterus that grows outside your uterus and it causes this horrible pain and infertility issues which Molly has and just lots of stuff and some people have to have surgery for it. It’s very painful.
So Cody does not know about this yet, but I’m guessing Molly is going to have to tell him. She might refuse to go to GH because she knows what it is. So Molly is unconscious on Monday. Cody is pleading with her to wake up and then this conversation.
Alexis Davis (Nancy Lee Grahn) goes over to grill Sonny and I wonder if she’s going to talk to him about her frustrations with the Scout Cain (Cosette Abinante) situation. And I do wonder if there’s any way that Alexis tells Sonny that Willow Tait (Katelyn MacMullen) shot Drew Cain Quartermaine (Cameron Mathison). She’s sitting on that, but I don’t think she’s going to sit on it forever.
GH Spoilers: Sonny & Ric Strategize
And Sonny tells Ric if he wants to back out that now is the time to say so. So, this may be about Sonny’s plan to destroy Jenz Sidwell (Carlo Rota) and he may be pulling Ric in because Jason Morgan (Steve Burton) is getting ready to leave town and Sonny needs some help.
I am loving this Ric and Sonny thing. I like Ric and Elizabeth Webber (Rebecca Herbst). They’re okay, but if she ends up with Dante Falconeri (Dominic Zamprogna), I can live with it. But Ric and Sonny, I’m loving the bromance.
Elsewhere, Elizabeth and Dante share a common interest. They’re talking up at General Hospital, and Elizabeth tells Dante if any part of him feels like he wants to try again, now is the time. And I think Elizabeth might be telling him about Lulu Spencer (Alexa Havins Bruening). You know, if you want her, maybe make a move before she gets in deeper with Nathan West (Ryan Paevey). But I kind of don’t think Dante wants that.
And Lulu, meanwhile, is venting to her stepmom Tracy Quartermaine (Jane Elliot). And I’m sure it’s about Lulu dating Nathan and Maxie Jones’ (Kirsten Storms) bad reaction and her running and telling Dante before they could. And James West (Gary James Fuller) is asking his dad, Nathan, if he wants a girlfriend. And obviously, he’s not going to bring up Lulu at this point.
And Emma Drake (Brayden Bruner) tells Gio Palmieri (Giovanni Mazza) she’s got to accept the fact she is going to fail. And I wonder if that is about saving her grandma, Anna Devane (Finola Hughes).
General Hospital Spoilers Thursday, March 12th: Valentin Mulls an Offer
On Thursday, March 12th, Valentin Cassadine (James Patrick Stuart) is thinking carefully about an offer. Now, this may be an offer from Carly Corinthos Spencer (Laura Wright) herself. You know, everybody wants Valentin to leave, so he and Carly may be figuring out some place to protect her, but where he can still be around.
Or he may get an offer from Josslyn Jacks (Eden McCoy) or Jason, you know, since he’s about to leave town and wants Carly safe and Valentin is an issue. We’ll see if one of them makes the offer.
Maxie is demanding answers. And this may be about the sketchy Deception deal with Sidwell, unless of course it’s more on Nathan and Lulu, but I feel like it might be work related.
Meanwhile, Britt Westbourne (Kelly Thiebaud) is thankful. So maybe Lucas Jones (Van Hansis) or Marco Rios (Adrian Anchondo) have their hands on Britt’s meds by then. And Lulu is looking to Carly for advice.
I don’t know if that’s a great idea since she’s aiding and abetting an internationally wanted fugitive, but I’m sure again this is about the whole Nathan and Maxie thing and I think Carly’s going to tell her follow your heart, go for what you want.
GH Spoilers Friday, March 13th: Jordan’s Secret at Risk
Friday, March 13th, we’ve got Jordan Ashford’s (Tanisha Harper) secret at risk of being exposed. So, I’m assuming that’s a baby on the way and maybe we’re finally going to see that pregnancy test with two lines.
And Elizabeth gets some news from Dante, maybe about Delilah (Lily Cardone) and maybe Jane Doe. And something shocks Portia Robinson (Brook Kerr). And I wonder if she is going to find out that Jordan is pregnant.
And Harrison Chase (Josh Swickard) asks someone for something. So this may be help from Alexis. Maybe, you know, can you help us foster this baby temporarily until we find the family? Something like that.
Week of March 16th-20th on General Hospital spoilers: Carly and Sidwell Plan Their Party
The week of March 16th through the 20th, Carly and Sidwell are going to be planning their party that’s going to be out at Wyndemere on Spoon Island. So, I wonder if Carly is going to use this event to try and sneak Valentin onto the island with her so that they can, you know, get whatever they need to finish taking Jack Brennan (Chris McKenna) down.
Of course, they know they’ve got to take Cullum down as well. Jason is leaving soon. Steve Burton’s break begins and he’s already out on it, but his character is going to be offscreen by the end of the month. So, a reliable source leaked to us that he’s kidnapped, but right now he’s planning to run away with Britt, which is kind of awful.
Because it sounds like he’s just going to up and leave Danny Morgan (Asher Antonyzyn). That is not great fathering choosing Britt over Danny. Jason seems to just choose other people over his children. So, at least he told Michael Corinthos (Rory Gibson) to, you know, take over parenting him, but terrible parenting.
Jordan has a hard time keeping that secret. And if Portia finds out, oh my gosh, she’s going to hold her feet to the fire because Jordan’s done the same thing to her so many times. There’s no way Portia is going to keep quiet.

General Hospital Spoilers Week of March 16th-20th
Dante and Elizabeth get closer and we may see things shifting between them. Sparks may be flying, but you know, Ric has been seeing Elizabeth. He kissed her and he’s still hot for her. So, I would actually be okay with Elizabeth getting a love triangle because she’s had no love interest in so long. I think having two is absolutely fine.
Maxie continues to struggle with the Lulu and Nathan issue next week. And I’m very interested to hear Damian Spinelli’s (Bradford Anderson) take on all this. Josslyn is truly scared for her mom Carly. And as much as Josslyn and Jason want Carly to stay away from Valentin, they can’t force her.
And of course, Josslyn is struggling and Jason held back. Did you notice he didn’t tell Josslyn that Carly and Valentin are intimately involved, but I imagine that Josslyn can figure that out on her own before too long. We also have Justine and Sonny continuing to fight their urges.
The good news is the DA’s office is not going to pursue a case against Michael because Chase basically tainted everything with, as far as they know, planting evidence. Of course, he didn’t. It was Willow that planted the evidence and that will eventually come out.
Willow May Turn to Sidwell for Help
And speaking of Willow, I’m also wondering if she’s going to talk to Sidwell about dealing with the threat of Brennan. You know, because Sidwell, she doesn’t know this, but he could go to Cullum, who could then, you know, tell Jack to step off where she is concerned. So, we’ll see how that goes.
Hopefully, Willow does turn to Sidwell. I mean, they’re partners in crime at this point. Also, Chase and Brook Lynn Quartermaine (Amanda Setton) spend some time with baby Jane Doe, and we may in fact see them fostering the baby soon.
And Willow is getting acclimated to being in Congress. And of course, Sidwell’s pulling her strings, but she’s used to dealing with overbearing men. Growing up in a cult, I think prepared her really well to work with Sidwell. That’s your General Hospital early weekly spoiler outlook.

Bold and Beautiful Early Spoilers March 16-20: Bill Reaches His Breaking Point & Ivy Resorts to Dirty Tactics!
Bold and the Beautiful early weekly spoilers for March 16th – 20th suggest Bill Spencer (Don Diamont) is completely losing it and Ivy Forrester (Ashleigh Brewer) playing even dirtier than she was before. If you can imagine that.
As we always do on early edition day, we start with what is coming the rest of this week and then we’re going to dive into what is ahead for next week.
Bold and the Beautiful Spoilers Wednesday, March 11th: Ridge Loses His Cool
So on Wednesday, March 11th, we’ve got Will Spencer (Crew Morrow) up at Il Giardino talking to Hope Logan (Annika Noelle). This is a carryover from the past episode and he is asking for an update on Will and Electra Forrester (Laneya Grace). But Will wants to know what is going on with Dylan (Sydney Bullock). And of course, Will is very worried about why Dylan took off and went up to Forrester Creations. But bottom line is Hope does not know why.
And I’m curious if she will tell Will the same kind of thing that she was telling Dylan about how Electra’s had this cushy life and she really doesn’t understand hardship. Because Will’s had a life like that. So, I’m curious if Hope will bring that up or not because she and Dylan seem more eye to eye because they grew up in similar economic situations.
Ridge Forrester (Thorsten Kaye) loses his cool because Bill is going to stand his ground on Wednesday and he’s making it very clear to Brooke Logan (Katherine Kelly Lang) and Ridge that he and Katie Logan (Heather Tom) are using Eric Forrester‘s (John McCook) designs. Period. They are bought and paid for. Woo! That does not go over well. Ridge absolutely explodes. Scares the caterer. Bill’s complaining there’s no dessert. And then Ridge is just railing at Katie, asking if she wants to be remembered for stealing. And she insists that she and Eric collaborated for weeks on the designs. But then Brooke slams Katie and says, “You didn’t create anything.”
Chaos Erupts on B&B
And then Bill is losing it and telling Ridge, “Don’t you dare talk to my wife like that.” So obviously this conciliatory dinner is going to go down in flames. Eric, meanwhile, is spending some time reconnecting with RJ Forrester (Joshua Hoffman). Eric is up at the Forrester Creations design office, and RJ is telling his granddad that Forrester Creations is your home.
So, I’m hoping we get a clue during this conversation from Eric about whether he’s going to wrap things up at Logan, you know, finish what he promised Katie and then come back to Forrester or if he’s just cutting things off with Logan and back at Forrester already to stay.
Dylan is more than thrilled to accept Steffy Forrester‘s (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) job offer and she wants to know Dylan’s full name for HR and she says her name is Melissa Dylan and her parents call her Miss Dylan. Now, problem is they introduced Miss Dylan as this art teacher and I don’t think they were going to keep her around.
It was one of those cases like, “Oh, we really like the actress,” but they were already calling her Miss Dylan and then just Dylan. And she’s been in the credits for a while now as Melissa Dylan. And I was wondering how they were ever going to do that. Hopefully, they’re just going to stick to calling her Dylan because that’s how we all know her, right?
Thursday, March 12th: Katie Defends Herself to Brooke on Bold and the Beautiful
Thursday, March 12th, leading up to Logan’s big press conference launch, Liam Spencer (Scott Clifton) is chatting up VIP Dottie (Morgan Fairchild) and her assistant Joseph (Jim J. Bullock) at the Spencer Publications offices. They’ve got fashion press there. They’ve got VIPs. It’s going to be a huge event. And they have built a showroom set.
Now, to me, that means that Logan isn’t going anywhere because that’s a pretty spendy set to construct for a one-off. Meanwhile, Katie is having to defend herself and her actions to Brooke yet again. And I’m sure it’s about using Eric’s designs and pushing forward with the launch of Logan, which Brooke feels like the designs are stolen, the name is stolen. Katie feels like she’s entitled to use it. Fans are split equally.
Elsewhere, Electra is very unhappy when Dylan shares her big news. And I’m sure this is about Steffy giving Dylan a job at Forrester Creations. And of course, Electra isn’t going to want Dylan anywhere near her after she kissed Will and broke her rules and you know it was just not proper.
Friday, March 13th: Brooke and Ridge Crash Logan’s Launch
Friday, March 13th, we’ve got Bill and Katie putting Eric’s designs right onto the runway over at the Spencer Tower for the press conference. We’ve got models there. We’ve got gowns and then Katie hits the Logan runway with Bill announcing a new name in LA fashion and it is Logan.
So Katie’s making a speech at Logan’s debut event. They’ve got the dresses produced from Eric’s designs. They got models, a full house, a whole big thing. And Ridge and Brooke have the audacity to crash and they interrupt Katie’s press conference. I’m sure there’s going to be a huge scene. And I cannot wait to see how messy, messy, messy this is going to get.
Bold and the Beautiful Spoilers Week of March 16th-20th: Ivy Plays Dirty
The week of March 16th through the 20th, I expect Electra to go rant to Ivy that Steffy has hired Dylan at Forrester Creations, the person that Ivy, you know, has told Electra was basically seducing Will and being totally inappropriate.
And I would not be surprised if Ivy marched into the CEO office to demand that Steffy rescind the job offer. Take it back. You know, Ivy is way more confrontational than Electra, but I don’t think anything she says will get Steffy to cooperate. She doesn’t even like Ivy. We all know that, right?
And if she gives Steffy the whole it’s not proper thing, I think Steffy might hand that right back to her. And hopefully that will inspire Dylan to tell Steffy what she saw about the letter and about Electra and all that.
Bold and the Beautiful Spoilers: RJ Still after Electra
Meanwhile, RJ isn’t going to give up on trying to make Electra his now that she and Will are officially and completely split. Electra and Will’s communication is terrible. You know, Will didn’t tell Electra he saw her with RJ and you know, Ivy’s in the mix driving them apart. So contrived.
Plus, Ivy keeps pushing Electra and RJ. We’re going to get a lot more of that. And I could actually see Ivy going to Dylan and telling her to go away and threaten her. And I don’t think Steffy’s going to tolerate that. I don’t think anybody’s going to tolerate that except Electra and Ivy.

Hope and Brooke Won’t Give Up on Deacon and Taylor on B&B
Hope and Brooke are not going to give up on Deacon Sharpe (Sean Kanan) and Taylor Hayes (Rebecca Budig) having a future. And if Hope hears about Steffy ranting and demanding they end things, you know, Hope may decide that she’s on a matchmaking mission.
Meanwhile, Deacon and Taylor are fighting their urges. You know, they did say goodbye. Deacon is trying to recommit to Sheila Carter (Kimberlin Brown), but he’s head over heels in love with Taylor, who is terrified of losing her family. This is all about Steffy’s ultimatum, but in the end, I don’t think Deacon and Taylor can stand being apart.
Bold and the Beautiful Spoilers: Deacon & Taylor Take the Next Step
Bold and the Beautiful spoilers confirm that a couple makes love for the first time in the month of March. I absolutely think it’s Deacon and Taylor. I don’t think Will is going to go down that road with Dylan anytime soon. And I don’t think Electra is going to go hop in bed with RJ. And that really leaves only Deacon and Taylor.
Things are going to get a lot more intense between Dylan and Ivy. I expect Dylan to tell Electra everything pretty soon despite what Ivy said. And I do expect some threatening antics from Ivy. She’s just getting out of control. I don’t think I’m going to miss the character when Ashleigh Brewer has to go out on maternity leave. This is so unlike the Ivy from years ago.
Things get heated between Brooke, Katie, Bill, and Ridge after the Logan fashion show. I mean, heck, during it, really. And Bill and Katie are gonna have to do damage control at the press conference after whatever stunt that Ridge and Brooke pull and there’s going to be big fallout and I’m sure Eric’s gonna have some things to say about all of this. That’s your Bold and the Beautiful early weekly spoiler outlook.

Gavin Newsom Reacts To Possible Iran Drone Attacks In California
Things are getting serious on the West Coast. Gavin Newsom is addressing growing concerns after reports of a potential retaliatory threat tied to Iran started circulating online. And let’s just say… it pushed “West Coast” into trending territory. With the situation reportedly involving possible drone activity targeting parts of California, the governor didn’t waste time addressing the matter.
RELATED: Trump Raises Eyebrows With “I Guess” Response To Whether Americans Should Worry About Iran Retaliation (VIDEO)
Authorities Warn Of Possible Drone Threat
According to information reviewed by ABC News, authorities were alerted that as early as February 2026, Iran allegedly expressed interest in carrying out a surprise drone attack that could target locations in California if the U.S. launched strikes against the country. The potential threat was reportedly identified by the United States Coast Guard and shared with law enforcement agencies as a precautionary warning. Officials say there is currently no additional information about the timing, method, or specific targets tied to the alleged plan.
Newsom Says State Is Taking Threat Seriously
Newsom confirmed that California officials are taking the reports seriously, explaining that the California Office of Emergency Services is already sharing real-time information with local law enforcement agencies across the state. He added that officials have been actively monitoring drone-related security concerns for some time and have formed specialized working groups to address potential risks. In a video released on Wednesday, Gov. Gavin Newsom shared:
“As it relates to drone strikes, we have been aware of that information,” he revealed. “We have been working collaboratively through the (SOC), which we established right after the war began — the State Operations Center. Working with the Office of Emergency Services, but also working locally to make sure we transmit any information that we have received.”
The alert comes amid ongoing tensions following U.S. military operations against Iran during the administration of Donald Trump, with reports indicating that Iran has since carried out drone strikes in parts of the Middle East. Meanwhile, the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s Los Angeles office declined to comment on the situation, and the White House has not yet responded to requests for clarification.
The Comment Section Didn’t Take Long
As soon as TSR dropped the post, folks ran straight to the Instagram comment section and started ducking for cover. Some joked that the whole situation has to be part of a rollout for a new Call of Duty game, while others immediately asked, “Who is we?” when it came to any talk about retaliation. And, of course, a few Roomies simply chalked it all up to the same conclusion they always do — that Earth is ghetto.
One Instagram user @iknowwhereiwanttoeat said, “Can we stop the world so I can get off 😩”
This Instagram user @dextercarr added, “🗣️ WE DIDNT DO NOTHINNNNNN *cries in temper tantrum*“
And, Instagram user @_thats.brookes.alexandria_ wrote, “Not us living in GTA before we get GTA 😔”
Meanwhile, Instagram user @sportyvixen shared, “Dis teew much 🤦🏽♀️”
While Instagram user @ceecee_la said, “Iran go ahead and hit Washington DC & Mar-a-Lago first pls respectfully“
Lastly, Instagram user @loonyt joked, “the new Call of Duty rollout been 🔥🔥 so far“

Jeffrey Epstein Told Victim He Fathered Child With Woman He Called ‘Perfect’
Jeffrey Epstein
Pedo Was a Papa?!?
Published
Jeffrey Epstein wasn’t just a pedophile, he was also a proud papa … at least that’s what he told one of his sexual assault victims.
In the Epstein Files, there’s a document that makes it sound like Epstein was a father to a child.
A woman, who claims Epstein sexually assaulted her for years starting when she was 16, told the feds Epstein once pointed to a photo of a blonde woman displayed inside his New York City mansion and told her it was the mother of his child.
The victim said Epstein described his baby mama as “perfect” … and in addition to the photo, he also displayed a sculpted mold of the woman’s torso.
Epstein is pictured in the files hugging a woman who is cradling a baby in her arms … though her face and the child’s face are redacted to protect their identities. Epstein has a hand on her waist and is grinning as he looks at her in the photo.
Another image in the Epstein Files shows the convicted pedophile holding a baby … the child’s face is redacted, so it’s unclear if this is the same baby from the other photo we just mentioned.
Sarah Ferguson, the former Duchess of York, emailed Epstein in September 2011, congratulating him on having a baby boy. She said she’d heard the news from former Prince Andrew, her ex-husband.
The victim who claimed Epstein told her he was a father spilled the beans to the FBI in January 2020 … five months after Epstein died in a New York jail as he awaited trial on sex trafficking charges.

Sam Asghari
Britney Has Been Oppressed Like Iranian Women
Published
Piers Morgan Uncensored
Sam Asghari has some thoughts on Britney Spears getting arrested on suspicion of DUI … but he’s being very careful how he chooses his words.
Sam was a recent guest on “Piers Morgan Uncensored” to mostly talk about America’s current war with his native country Iran … but, of course, he was asked about the hot water his ex-wife got into last week.
As you can see in the clip … Sam said he saw similarities in the way women in his country’s society are oppressed and the way BS has been oppressed — specifically by the media.
And just like he did on Fox News last week, after her arrest … Sam said Brit made a mistake and can come back from it. What she needs more than anything is the media to backoff.
NewsNation
As for Britney, she was arrested last week for allegedly driving under the influence in Ventura County, California.
Bottom line … seems Sam hopes his ex gets the help she needs — without a ton of cameras in her face. Good luck with that.

3 Classic Rock Songs the Rock Bands Who Wrote Them Actually Hated
Have you ever heard a song way too many times and started getting sick of hearing it? Turns out, even our favorite artists feel the same, sometimes even toward their own work. There are plenty of songs in history that have gone on to become classics, beloved by many fans and critics alike — even across generations. However, a song can be so popular and overplayed that some musicians develop a love-and-hate relationship with their hit tracks. Some have even gone to the extent of actually resenting the song that brought them massive success.
Hating your own song isn’t, in fact, a reflection of the artist themselves. Most of the time, they simply didn’t want a particular hit to define their artistry or become the central focus of their entire oeuvre. This topic isn’t new either, as many musicians have already disclosed their dislike of their most popular releases. However, these three bands stood out for being their own song’s number one detractors.
“Creep” (1992)
Artist: Radiohead
Radiohead has delivered many great songs that could easily become their signature hit. That includes fan favorites like “No Surprises,” “Fake Plastic Trees,” “Let Down,” and the Romeo + Juliet soundtrack, deserving of the signature hit status: “Exit Music (For a Film).” However, “Creep,” off their debut studio album Pablo Honey, owns that recognition. The band’s debut single is widely credited for launching their career into greater heights, even if they didn’t initially plan on releasing it.
Over the years, the song itself has become its meaning too: a creep, or even a weirdo, among the band’s catalog — at least for Radiohead. It was stylistically different from most of their songs (both sonically and lyrically), even within Pablo Honey, and the song’s entirety wasn’t the route Radiohead was gravitating toward either. But it became so popular that, at one point, the band was considered a one-hit wonder early in their career, and it overshadowed many of their songs that they consider best represent them as artists. That led them to avoid playing the song live, though they sometimes offer it to fans, presumably for its nostalgic appeal.
“Wonderwall” (1995)
Artist: Oasis
Whether they like it or not, “Wonderwall” — from (What’s the Story) Morning Glory? album — will always be synonymous with Oasis’ legacy. Despite the song’s immense success, even listeners grew to disdain it for overexposure in the years since its release. The Gallagher brothers (Liam and Noel Gallagher) aren’t the song’s biggest fans either, with Liam even going too far by saying “Wonderwall” makes him want to “gag.”
In an interview, Noel revealed that the song was one of his least favorites, and admitted that “it’s not finished,” adding, “If I could somehow twist time and go back there, I’d probably pick a different song for our calling card. Probably ‘Some Might Say.’” But perhaps no one hates the song as much as Liam does. During the release of their seventh studio album, Dig Out Your Soul, Liam didn’t hold back in expressing just how much he hated the song. He said, “At least there’s no ‘Wonderwall’ on there. I can’t f**king stand that f**king song! Every time I have to sing it I want to gag. Problem is, it was a big, big tune for us.”
Bob Dylan praises a cover of his hit song that captured its essence like no other.
“Smells Like Teen Spirit” (1991)
Artist: Nirvana
“Smells Like Teen Spirit” is credited for launching Nirvana to public consciousness, and one that gave them massive mainstream attention — the very reason that made the late Kurt Cobain resent the song. As Nirvana’s fame skyrocketed, Cobain’s enthusiasm for the song dwindled over time. While the song made them a household name, the frontman would eventually refuse to play it live: one, because it was written to be “the ultimate pop song,” and two, to make way for the rest of their music. He didn’t even play the song during what would become his final public performance. In a conversation with Rolling Stone, Cobain said:
“Once it got into the mainstream, it was over. I’m just tired of being embarrassed by it. I’m beyond that… The reason it gets a big reaction is people have seen it on MTV a million times. It’s been pounded into their brains. But I think there are so many other songs that I’ve written that are as good, if not better than that song, like ‘Drain You’. That’s definitely as good as ‘Teen Spirit.’ I love the lyrics, and I never get tired of playing it. Maybe if it was as big as ‘Teen Spirit,’ I wouldn’t like it as much.”
