Days of Our Lives finds that Holly Jonas (Ashley Puzemis) absolutely devastated to find out that EJ DiMera (Dan Feuerriegel) planted drugs in her bag to frame her. And Kristen DiMera (Stacy Haiduk) is now on the loose after escaping from EJ’s plot to send her away forever. Plus, Brady Black (Eric Martsolf) is going to need to do some serious damage control.

Days of Our Lives: Holly Learns the Horrible Truth

All right, so let’s talk about the betrayal that Holly’s about to experience this week when she finds out the truth. So, Sarah Horton (Linsey Godfrey) is going to tell Holly that the pills that were found in her bag were planted there by EJ. And Holly’s going to feel absolutely crushed and betrayed. She never would have expected that her mom’s boyfriend would do something that dirty.

But you know, Xander Cook Kiriakis (Paul Telfer) figured it out. We saw him piecing together the clues. And he was going to go to Holly and tell her everything. But then he backed off and told Sarah instead. And Sarah knows because Xander has evidence that EJ planted the pills in Holly’s bag, and now Sarah has to be the one to break the news to Holly that her mom’s boyfriend framed her.

Holly’s going to be absolutely devastated. And understandably so. Because Holly thought that EJ loved her mom Nicole Walker (Arianne Zucker), but if he did, he would never have put her daughter through this nightmare. Holly got arrested and went to jail. Holly could have gone to prison.

And all because EJ wanted to frame his ex-girlfriend, for having drugs so he could remove her from the picture and keep her from exposing his crimes. So, once Holly finds out what EJ did, she’s going to feel the sting of betrayal. And I’m sure Holly’s going to want some revenge on EJ for what he’s done to her.

Kristen’s Escape and Brady’s Problem on DOOL

But more pressing is the situation with Kristen who has just escaped from EJ’s plan to lock her away on an island. So, when EJ found Lexie Carver (Nikki Crawford) in the cargo container instead of Kristen, he decided to go ahead and bring Lexie home to the mansion where he could take care of her as she’s dying.

But what that means is that Kristen escaped the shipping container scheme and now she’s somewhere in Salem running free. And Rachel Black (Lorelei Olivia Mote) is vulnerable because her mother is out there. Now, Kristen has already been in contact with Rachel, pretending to be Susan Banks (Stacy Haiduk).

So, this puts Brady in a really tough spot because he knows his ex-girlfriend Kristen is out there loose and he knows his daughter Rachel needs protection. And I’m sure Brady’s going to be on high alert now.

Days of Our Lives: Brady Hunts Kristen Down

Brady and Steve Johnson (Stephen Nichols) are going to be trying to find Kristen. And they’re probably going to be working with the ISA or other law enforcement to track her down. But in the meantime, Kristen is out there doing who knows what. She might try to kidnap her daughter Rachel. Or She might try to disappear with her on Days of our Lives.

She might try and take her to a remote location. The possibilities are endless and all of them are terrifying for Brady. So, I could see Brady wanting to get Rachel out of Salem and maybe send her to stay with Victor Kiriakis (John Aniston) or another family member for safe keeping. Because if Kristen’s out there loose, Rachel needs to be somewhere safe where Kristen can’t get to her.

EJ’s Criminal Mess on Days

Also, Rafe Hernandez (Galen Gering) is going to be investigating EJ for the pill planting scheme. And Chad DiMera (Connor Floyd) is going to find out what his big brother EJ did and he’s probably not going to be happy about it. Also, we know that Gwen Rizczech (Emily O’Brien) wrote a confession letter that implicates both her and EJ in their crimes together.

And now Rafe and the ISA want to get Gwen back to Salem to testify against EJ so he can be prosecuted. And EJ is aware of this threat and he’s going to be nervous. Gwen is supposed to come back from Alamania with Leo Stark (Greg Rikaart) and help Rafe bring down EJ.

But the problem is EJ’s been hiding Lexie at the mansion. And once word gets out that Lexie is dying and she’s been holed up at the DiMera mansion this whole time, everyone’s going to be upset with EJ. Especially Abe Carver (James Reynolds) and Theo Carver (Tyler Joseph Andrews).

They’ve been kept in the dark about Lexie’s condition. And once they find out EJ’s been harboring dying Lexie without telling them, they’re going to be furious. And that could put EJ in an even worse position legally and personally.

EJ in Bad Shape on Days of Our Lives

So, EJ’s got a lot of problems stacking up. He’s got Rafe investigating him. He’s got Gwen about to come back to testify against him. And he’s got Kristen loose and causing chaos. He’s got Holly wanting revenge on him for framing her. And he’s got Abe and Theo about to find out that he’s been keeping dying Lexie a secret from them.

In the end, I think EJ’s going to have to make some tough decisions about whether he’s going to come clean about everything he’s done or whether he’s going to continue to lie and cover things up.

And based on EJ’s track record, I think we know which way he’s going to lean. But the walls are closing in on him and it’s only a matter of time before the truth comes out. So, we’ll have to see how EJ manages all of this chaos and whether he can survive the coming storm.

This week on Legally Us, Rachael Bennett, a certified family law specialist and senior attorney at Sullivan Law & Associates, breaks down Dorit Kemsley and Paul “PK” Kemsley’s contentious divorce.

In court documents obtained by Us on July 27, Dorit, 50, alleged that PK, 58, is trying to “egregiously misuse Family Code 2108” in an attempt to “side-step trial” and continue to allegedly forgo making their mortgage payments, claiming his alleged attempts would render both her and their shared children without a home. She also claimed that PK promised to pay their family’s bills after he moved out of their shared home in 2024 in lieu of child support.

Dorit Kemsley is accusing her estranged husband, Paul “PK” Kemsley, of having nefarious intent while attempting to sell their family home amid the pair’s ongoing divorce. In court documents obtained by Us on Monday, July 27, Dorit, 50, alleged that PK, 58, is trying to “egregiously misuse Family Code 2108” in an attempt to “side-step […]

PK then filed new court documents on July 30 denying Dorit’s recent motion and alleged that Dorit hasn’t made any payment for the mortgages, only covering certain costs for utilities and staff payroll. PK also claimed that Dorit’s expenses, totaling $900,000 for wardrobe, are not required in her Real Housewives of Beverly Hills contract.

Dorit denied spending the amount, explaining that many of the designer items were returned. However, she disclosed in a court declaration that she spent approximately $217,000 on her wardrobe for season 15.

“If PK can provide the court with a copy of the Real Housewives contract to show that there’s nothing in there requiring her to purchase specific clothing items or maintain a high-end luxury look, then he may be able to convince a judge that she is an excessive spender and that she shouldn’t be trusted to maintain the house,” Bennett tells Us. “For Dorit, her strongest claim is that the parties had a pre-existing agreement that PK would pay the mortgage instead of paying her under like a formal child support order, and if she can prove that, it takes the blame off of her for the foreclosure, and I think it’ll give the court a much more common sense explanation as to why the mortgage is so behind.”

Paul “PK” Kemsley fired back at estranged wife Dorit Kemsley’s claims that her contract for The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills can explain her so-called “excessive” spending habits. “Her contract does not state any requirement to update and maintain her wardrobe, make up and hair as a condition for her employment,” PK, 58, alleged in […]

She adds, “I would expect her to be able to show emails or texts reflecting their agreement, as well as proof that PK initially followed the agreement before the mortgage fell behind. It’s a battle of the evidence at this point.”

Thank You!

PK has expressed his desire to sell the home, arguing that an immediate, court-ordered sale of the property is necessary to preserve the remaining equity in the home. Dorit asked the judge to deny his request.

The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills’ Dorit Kemsley is clearing things up after a recent report claimed that her home is at risk of foreclosure. During a Thursday, March 19, appearance on Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen, Dorit, 49, was asked about a recent RadarOnline report alleging that she and estranged husband PK […]

“The court can absolutely force the sale of a family home while a divorce is still pending, but the judge has to have a really good reason to do it,” Bennett explains. “The most typical situation is if there’s some kind of a financial loss or risk of a financial loss. So where a house is in foreclosure and neither party is either willing or able to catch up the mortgage payments and keep it current, the court will step in and order the house be sold. It’s basically a protective mechanism to make sure that the couple’s assets don’t go to waste during the divorce process.”

PK and Dorit have been locked in a contentious divorce battle since April 2025, when Dorit filed to end their 10-year marriage. In the filing, she cited irreconcilable differences and requested sole legal and physical custody of their two children, son Jagger, 12, and daughter Phoenix, 9.

2026 has been the year of Luke Grimes so far, who is installed as the lead in one of the biggest CBS shows of all time, Marshals. Grimes reprises his role as Kayce Dutton in the Yellowstone spin-off, and despite record-low reception for a Taylor Sheridan-produced show, Marshals is coming back for Season 2. Long before he was working on Dutton Ranch, Grimes carved out a name for himself in a much different genre starring as Elliot Grey in the Fifty Shades of Grey movies, which made a fortune at the box office despite being maligned by critics and audiences. Grimes has leaned on his Yellowstone role heavily in recent years, but that hasn’t stopped him from picking up parts in other big movies with notable stars.

Last year, Grimes starred alongside Pedro Pascal and Joaquin Phoenix in one of the most polarizing movies of the year, Eddington. Writer/director Ari Aster has become a master at making movies that either resonate with audiences, or make them not want to come back to the theater for the rest of the year, and he tapped back into that chaotic dysfunction during the making of Eddington. The film cost only $25 million to make, but it still struggled at the box office, grossing only $13 million and still falling well short of its break-even point. Eddington, which also stars Emma Stone, has since found a streaming home on HBO Max in America, where it’s had several runs of success into the top 10. Overseas, however, the film has surged into the VOD top 10 on Apple TV in a few countries around the world where it’s not on HBO Max.

What Is ‘Eddington’ About?

The official synopsis for Eddington, which holds scores of 69% from critics and 66% from audiences on Rotten Tomatoes, reads as follows: “In May 2020, a small-town sheriff (Joaquin Phoenix) squares off against the town’s mayor (Pedro Pascal), igniting a powder keg that pits neighbor against neighbor in the isolated New Mexico town of Eddington. As pandemic paranoia, conspiracy theories, and political tension collide, an escalating standoff pushes the community to the brink.” Austin Butler, best known for his 2022 Oscar-nominated role in Elvis, also has a key role in Eddington. The 2025 Western was Aster’s first film after he teamed up with Joaquin Phoenix for Beau Is Afraid.

Check out Eddington on HBO Max in America and stay tuned to Collider for more updates and coverage of Luke Grimes’ future projects.

Slasher movies are easy to dismiss until one gets under your skin and stays there. A masked killer, a sharp weapon, a group of possible victims and a final survivor can sound like a basic formula. The masterpieces (on this list) expose how much can be done inside it.

These ten films have real personalities. Their murders are remembered, but blood alone did not secure their places here. Each one understands anticipation, character and the sick relationship between the audience and the killer. Horror fans have argued over these rankings for decades. Scroll down slowly to find out what I think.

10

‘X’ (2022)

Image via A24

A group of young filmmakers arrives at an isolated Texas farm in 1979, hoping to shoot an adult movie without telling the elderly owners what they are doing. That setup could have settled for cheap jokes and quick deaths. X instead connects youth, sex, ageing, ambition and resentment until the violence starts feeling like the ugliest possible reaction to being left behind.

Maxine Minx (Mia Goth) and Pearl (Mia Goth) drive the film far beyond its porn-shoot premise. Maxine believes fame will rescue her from an ordinary life. Pearl sees the youth and freedom she lost standing right in front of her. The barn, the alligator, the headlights and the television preacher all feed into a story about people desperate to feel special before time decides otherwise. X earns this spot through empathy that never softens the horror. Pearl is monstrous, but the film understands exactly where the rage began.

‘The Burning’ (1981)

Image via Filmways Pictures

Camp Blackfoot carries an old wound. Years earlier, a cruel prank left caretaker Cropsy (Lou David) horribly burned. His return turns another summer camp into a hunting ground, but The Burning has more on its mind than revenge. The campers actually behave like young people with existing friendships, private insecurities and enough personality to make the deaths feel disruptive rather than scheduled. The raft massacre remains the film’s most famous passage though.

The film comes from Tom Savini and his effects are fast, graphic and mean, with Cropsy attacking several people in broad daylight before anyone can properly react. Yet the camp life before that violence deserves equal credit. Woodstock (Fisher Stevens), Dave (Jason Alexander) and Sophie (Holly Hunter) appear early in their careers, while Alfred (Brian Backer)’s position as the bullied outsider complicates the usual slasher assumptions. Cropsy is not just punishing one neat group of guilty people. His anger has spread beyond the original humiliation and become an excuse to destroy strangers. That lack of moral order makes The Burning nastier than many of the Friday the 13th imitators surrounding it.

8

‘Child’s Play’ (1988)

Image via United Artists

There is something immediately upsetting about a killer hiding inside a toy a child loves. Child’s Play felt brutal because of that as a child. Six-year-old Andy Barclay (Alex Vincent) begs for a Good Guy doll, and his mother Karen Barclay (Catherine Hicks) manages to buy one despite their financial struggles. Neither knows that serial killer Charles Lee Ray (Brad Dourif) used voodoo to transfer his soul into the doll before dying. Andy then becomes the only witness to murders nobody believes he could have understood.

The film protects Andy’s point of view long enough for the adults’ disbelief to become part of the terror. Karen starts from a reasonable place, then has to accept that her son has been telling the truth while everyone around him treated him as disturbed. Chucky is still frightening here, before later sequels pushed his personality further into comedy. Brad Dourif’s voice has anger, panic and criminal arrogance in it. The battery discovery remains one of the cleanest reveals in 1980s horror. Karen sees that the doll has been moving without power, and every earlier scene instantly becomes worse.

7

‘You’re Next’ (2011)

Image Via Lionsgate

You’re Next is exactly how the name sounds. The Davison family reunion is already uncomfortable before a crossbow bolt crashes through the dining-room window. Old grudges, sibling competition and money have poisoned the evening, leaving everyone emotionally exposed when masked attackers surround the house. Then Erin (Sharni Vinson) starts responding with a level of calm nobody expected from Crispian Davison (A. J. Bowen)’s quiet Australian girlfriend.

What follows is one of the most satisfying reversals in modern slasher cinema. Erin grew up on a survivalist compound, so locked doors, broken windows and armed intruders register as problems to solve. Erin gets hurt, makes mistakes and understands the situation faster than the people panicking around her. The animal masks are creepy as hell. The family conspiracy underneath them is even uglier. Wealth has turned murder into an inheritance strategy, and the killers expect their victims to behave helplessly. Adam Wingard and writer Simon Barrett keep the humour vicious without draining the danger. A blender eventually becomes a weapon, which tells you how completely Erin refuses the role chosen for her.

6

‘Scream 2’ (1997)

Image via Miramax Films

Wes Craven and Kevin Williamson had already exposed the rules of slasher movies, so the sequel faced a brutal question. What could Scream possibly say next without repeating the joke? The answer arrives through copycat violence, media exploitation, survivor trauma and the pressure of watching real murders become entertainment before the victims have even recovered.

Sidney Prescott (Neve Campbell) is trying to build a life at Windsor College when Ghostface returns. Neve Campbell’s work here has more weariness than the first film. Sidney understands the pattern now, which only makes the renewed attack feel crueler. Gale Weathers (Courteney Cox) sees another career opportunity, Dewey Riley (David Arquette) returns with injuries that still affect him and Randy Meeks (Jamie Kennedy) treats sequel rules as protection until the rules fail him. His death in broad daylight remains a punch to the chest. The sound-booth murder of Cici Cooper (Sarah Michelle Gellar) and the car escape with Ghostface unconscious beside Sidney and Hallie McDaniel (Elise Neal) show how inventive the suspense had become. Scream 2 knows sequels need escalation, then asks how much suffering audiences expect survivors to endure for another good movie.

5

‘A Nightmare on Elm Street’ (1984)

Before Freddy Krueger (Robert Englund) became a comedian with knives, he was a filthy, cruel presence waiting inside sleep in A Nightmare on Elm Street. Tina Gray (Amanda Wyss)’s death announces that immediately. She is dragged across the ceiling while Rod Lane (Jsu Garcia) watches helplessly, and the bedroom offers no logical explanation for what is happening. Wes Craven had found the perfect slasher territory. Every person eventually has to sleep, and parents cannot protect children from something they refuse to acknowledge.

Nancy Thompson (Heather Langenkamp) becomes formidable through exhaustion rather than physical power. Heather Langenkamp’s character investigates the deaths, discovers the connection between Freddy and the adults of Elm Street and builds traps while her body is begging to shut down. The parents created the haunting when they burned Krueger alive and buried the truth, leaving their children to inherit the punishment. That generational guilt adds weight to every surreal image. The body bag in the school hallway, Freddy’s arms stretching across the alley and Glen Lantz (Johnny Depp) disappearing into his bed still feel wrong in the best way. Sleep was never safe again after this as a kid.

4

‘Black Christmas’ (1974)

Black Christmas helped establish ideas later slashers would use constantly, but its influence is only half the argument. The attic, the rocking chair and the unanswered telephone leave the film in a place far colder than closure. The phone rings inside a sorority house, and the voice on the other end refuses to sound human for long. It mutters, screams, threatens and shifts between identities while the women listening struggle to understand whether the caller is joking or already nearby. Bob Clark keeps the killer hidden so completely that even his face remains outside the audience’s reach.

Jess Bradford (Olivia Hussey) is dealing with an unwanted pregnancy and a controlling boyfriend while her friends begin disappearing during the Christmas break. Olivia Hussey allows the fear to build without losing Jess’s anger or independence. Barb Coard (Margot Kidder) brings sharp humour as Barb, whose drinking and hostility barely cover her own pain. The police trace the obscene calls slowly, and the truth is horrifyingly simple. They are coming from inside the house. Nobody can promise that Billy ever left.

3

‘The Texas Chain Saw Massacre’ (1974)

The title promises gore that Tobe Hooper barely shows. What the film delivers is worse. Five young people travel through rural Texas, pick up a deeply unsettling hitchhiker and eventually wander onto property belonging to a family that has turned slaughterhouse methods into domestic routine. The heat, dust, noise and relentless screaming make the whole experience feel physically unpleasant.

Leatherface (Gunnar Hansen) first appears with almost no warning. Gunnar Hansen’s huge frame fills the doorway, the hammer drops and a metal door slams shut. There is no speech and no theatrical reveal in The Texas Chain Saw Massacre. A human life ends with the speed of an animal being processed. The dinner scene later pushes Sally Hardesty (Marilyn Burns) beyond normal fear as the family mocks her terror and tries to involve their barely living grandfather in the killing. Marilyn Burns spends much of the last act running, falling and screaming until survival looks stripped of all dignity. Her laughter in the truck is not triumph. She has escaped with her mind hanging by a thread while Leatherface swings the chainsaw against the sunrise. One of the best slashers of all time.

2

‘Scream’ (1996)

Horror fans knew the rules before 1996. The genius of Scream was recognizing that the characters could know them too and still die. Casey Becker (Drew Barrymore) answers a phone call, talks about scary movies and slowly realizes the stranger outside understands her home better than she does. Drew Barrymore was the biggest name in the cast, which made her murder before the title card feel like a direct threat to audience expectations.

Sidney Prescott (Neve Campbell) has already lost her mother and watched the town turn that death into gossip. Ghostface forces her to question her father, her boyfriend, her friends and the story she has been told about Maureen. Neve Campbell keeps Sidney emotionally grounded while the film around her jokes about virginity, sequels and suspicious behaviour. Billy Loomis (Skeet Ulrich) and Stu Macher (Matthew Lillard) are terrifying precisely because their motives are unequal. Billy has built a revenge story around his own entitlement. Stu seems thrilled that murder has given him a role to perform. Scream laughs with horror fans, understands their knowledge and then uses that knowledge against them.

‘Halloween’ (1978)

The king of it all. Mighty Michael Myers. Halloween is basically a white mask that appears across the street, behind a hedge and beside a clothesline. Michael Myers (Nick Castle) spends much of Halloween standing still, yet every sighting changes the space around Laurie Strode (Jamie Lee Curtis). Haddonfield looks ordinary enough to lower everyone’s guard. Children walk home from school. Teenagers make plans. Parents leave for the evening. Evil has entered a familiar neighbourhood and has no interest in explaining itself.

John Carpenter’s direction is disciplined to the point of cruelty in this film. The widescreen frame encourages the viewer to search every background, while his score creates panic from a few repeating notes. Laurie notices Michael before anyone else, partly because she pays attention and partly because she already lives more cautiously than her friends. Once the attack begins, she fights with whatever is close, protects the children and keeps moving despite believing she has stopped him more than once. Dr. Loomis (Donald Pleasence) shoots Michael, looks down and finds the ground empty. The closing shots move through silent rooms while his breathing continues. The movie ends, but Haddonfield never gets its safety back.

An Ohio mom pleaded to child endangerment after being accused of injecting fecal matter into her child’s IV port. Tiffany M. Le Sueur reportedly pleaded guilty to the offense on Wednesday, August 5.

Ohio Mom Accused Of Injecting Feces Into Child’s IV Port

Tiffany M. Le Sueur pleaded guilty on Wednesday after she was accused of injecting fecal matter into her child’s IV port, per WTVG.

The 35-year-old’s child was reportedly a patient at the Nationwide Children’s Hospital in Columbus, Ohio, when the crime occurred.

Le Sueur was captured after the hospital staff reported her for possibly injecting a foreign substance into her child’s IV port in February. Subsequently, the staff began to monitor the Ohio mom’s hospital visits with her child. Additionally, the medical staff said they believed the foreign substance was fecal matter.

Witnesses Claim Le Sueur Used A Syringe To Inject The Feces

According to WBRC 6 News, a surveillance camera caught Le Sueur going into a bathroom with a cup. Subsequently, the Ohio mom allegedly used a syringe to inject feces into her child’s intravenous port on the footage.

She was later detained by the police, and her child was treated by medical personnel.

Le Sueur Only Received Probation

Despite the horrifying details of the crime, Franklin County Common Pleas Judge Mark Serrott only sentenced LeSueur to three years of community control.

Additionally, she was ordered to abide by all conditions of an ongoing child services case, per The Columbus Dispatch.

Le Sueur was also restricted from having unsupervised contact with minors following her arrest. In addition, she is scheduled to appear at a follow-up hearing next April.

If you’re a fan of rock music, there is no other genre that can match it. Rock and roll has a rawness and energy to it that can’t be found anywhere else. It’s an art form born in the 1950s, and despite its popularity taking a hit in the age of the internet, rock and roll will never die. Rock music is released through albums, a collection of art released by bands and artists. For so long, to promote it, labels would release singles as promotion. On radio and MTV, certain songs would catch fire, becoming timeless over the decades. These 25 rock songs best represent the different eras of the genre. To spice things up a bit, no band or artist can appear more than once.

Tool first debuted in the early 1990s. A decade later, they represented the best of the early 2000s on their third album Lateralus. Their third single, “Lateralus,” was butchered in its radio release, which cut out over three minutes of the 9:24 runtime. Lead singer Maynard James Keenan uses the Fibonacci sequence to build the song around. A true work of genius, it builds and builds until a frantic finish.

24

“In the End” by Linkin Park (2000)

Nu-metal had its day during the late 90s and early 2000s. As other bands came and went, Linkin Park remained because they were so much more than a fad. From the beginning, they were taking over the rock world on their debut album Hybrid Theory. Its last single, “In the End,” came out on one of America’s worst days, September 11, 2001. With hip hop and piano playing over Chester Bennington’s vocals and Mike Shinoda’s underrated rap vocals taking the lead, a song of utter hopelessness became even more heartbreaking for the era it came out in.

23

“Jump” by Van Halen (1984)

Van Halen was a mostly upbeat band with riffs and lyrics that were all about fun. They were sometimes criticized for not being deep enough, and captured their share of gripe for the pop and synth sounds found on their album 1984. For fans, however, it’s the perfect personification of the band. 1984 is best highlighted by “Jump.” Eddie Van Halen’s synth riff lead into David Lee Roth’s double meaning lyrics, turning from a statement about ending your life to one about the hope of jumping in and living it.

22

“Black Hole Sun” by Soundgarden (1994)

Soundgarden‘s most successful album, Superunknown, came out at the end of grunge, just a month after Kurt Cobain‘s death. One huge song, however, kept grunge hanging on. “Black Hole Sun” is the band’s most popular single. It’s a blend of genres, with grunge meeting old school hard rock and a bit of the Beatles. Chris Cornell‘s lyrics are a bit nonsensical, but his vocals are as hypnotic as ever. By restraining themselves, Soundgarden found perfection.

21

“Seven Nation Army” by The White Stripes (2003)

The White Stripes had been around for years, with plenty of critical acclaim, before 2003’s album Elephant. The first single was “Seven Nation Army”, a blast of heavy rock straight to the eardrums. With Jack White’s now legendary riff and Meg White’s energetic pounding of the drums, “Seven Nation Army” has only gotten bigger over the years. Today, it has become a sporting event anthem to rival Queen‘s “We Will Rock You.”

20

“Light My Fire” by The Doors (1967)

The Doors didn’t last long, but they were very prolific during their short years together before the death of Jim Morrison in 1971. Their first album, 1967’s self-titled The Doors, epitomizes who they were. You probably best know the three-minute radio version of “Light My Fire,” but on the album, it clocks in at seven minutes, with added experimental sections. The song opens with Ray Manzarek‘s organ solo. His mastery dominates the entire song, a richness of energy layered with Morriron’s soothing, deep vocals of desire.

19

“Man in the Box” by Alice in Chains (1990)

In 1990, Nirvana hadn’t broken out yet and grunge wasn’t even a term. Before it all stood Alice in Chains on their debut album, Facelift. As big as the band would get over the next few years, they were never better than on the album’s second single, “Man in the Box.” The song opens up with Jerry Cantrell’s ferocious guitar riff, before giving way to Layne Staley’s impossible voice. Although written about censorship and control, Cantrell’s struggle with drug addiction gives the powerful lyrics a more personal twist.

“Jeremy” by Pearl Jam (1991)

Pearl Jam‘s 1991 debut album, Ten, put them at the top of the grunge movement, right there with Nirvana. The track listing is filled with now classic rock such as “Alive” and “Even Flow.” One, however, stands out from the rest. “Jeremy” is infectious without even paying attention to the lyrics. It transforms though when you examine Eddie Vedder’s haunting vocals about a teenage boy pushed over the edge into a heartbreaking final act. More tragic, Vedder wrote the song based on the real life Jeremy Wade Delle, who took his life in front of his classmates.

“Sweet Child o’ Mine” by Guns N’ Roses (1987)

In 1987, Guns N’ Roses‘ debut album, Appetite for Destruction, took over the rock world. Although every track is hard rock mastery, “Sweet Child O’ Mine” is the one that sticks out the most. Slash‘s opening guitar riff is like an alarm bell calling you to attention. The entire band is in perfect harmony, anchored by Axl Rose’s unmistakable voice as he sings about love without remorse.

Metallica was the most successful heavy metal band of the 1980s. For a new decade, however, they took a huge risk by adopting a more commercial sound. What could have made them sellouts only made the group even better. 1991’s self-titled album begins with their most famous song, “Enter Sandman.” It starts off with a riff from Kirk Hammett that will rev up your soul. As Lars Ulrich‘s drums and Jason Newsted‘s bass kicks in, James Hetfield’s dark lullaby wakes up the masses who had fallen asleep in the era of late-80s hair metal dullness.

“Kenzi was the funniest, goofiest person I’ve ever met,” Jade wrote via Instagram. “She was always making me belly laugh. She had such a gift of bringing happiness to every room she was in. Some of my favorite memories with Kenzi are the simple ones — spending a summer living in her city, leaving our mark on the capital district, running around our cars at stop lights, cheering on the bandshell together, obsessing over The Office, dancing on countertops to Hannah Montana, and watching her light up anytime she got to be on a boat.”

The post continued, “She loved and supported Tyrese and me through every chapter,” Jade continued. “She was our biggest cheerleader and showed up for me in every big moment in my life. I can’t even imagine our wedding day without her there celebrating with us. The day will not be the same without her, but I know she will show us she is there somehow. She has been there for all of our moments since the day I met Tyrese. But Kenz will forever live on in my memories, my laughter, my stories, and in the person I am because of her. I will never stop laughing about all our memories together.”

Jade and Kern met as cheerleaders at Iowa State University, where Tyrese was also a standout basketball player. 

The Bold and the Beautiful announces some really exciting casting news. If you have not heard, we’re about to meet Melissa Dylan‘s (Sydney Bullock) mom, Darcy Dylan (Kelly Sullivan). And Bold got a great actress to play the role, soap veteran Kelly Sullivan. And it definitely sounds like Dylan needs her mom since Katie Logan (Heather Tom) is going after Dylan so hard.

Now, we don’t know much about Dylan’s backstory before LA, so this should be pretty interesting. We are going to talk about where you might have seen Kelly Sullivan on another CBS soap and what brings Dylan’s mom to town.

Bold and the Beautiful: Kelly Sullivan’s Soap History

So, we just found out the news that B&B hired the incredible Kelly Sullivan as Dylan’s mom, Darcy. If you also watched General Hospital, you might recall Kelly Sullivan was on there from 2011 to 2014. She played Connie Falconeri and dated notorious mobster Sonny Corinthos.

Connie had mental health issues. She had dissociative identity disorder. She also went by the name Kate Howard. And she wound up getting killed off by Ava Jerome (Maura West) before she could expose a mob plot. And then after General Hospital killed off her character Connie, then she swapped soaps.

So, Kelly Sullivan was next over on The Bold and the Beautiful’s sister soap Young and the Restless from 2014 to 2016. And on there she played Sage Warner who had a really brief fling with Adam Newman (Mark Grossman) and got pregnant and that was back when the character was played by actor Justin Hartley. So, Sage got pregnant by Adam but was more deeply involved in a romance with his brother Nick Newman (Joshua Morrow).

Darcy’s Fate on B&B

And of course you know Nick actor Josh Morrow is the dad of Will Spencer actor Crew Morrow. So, it’s interesting that Kelly Sullivan’s going to be playing opposite the son when in the past she played opposite the father. So, that’s going to be really cool when she steps into her role as Darcy Dylan on Bold.

But unfortunately, Young and the Restless also killed off Kelly Sullivan’s character. She died in a car crash. But her son Christian Newman is supposedly still on Y&R, although we’ve not seen the kid since he was a toddler, and he only gets those off-screen mentions. So, let’s hope B&B isn’t bringing Kelly Sullivan in to kill her off like the other two soaps did. She earned daytime Emmy nominations for outstanding supporting actress for both General Hospital and Young and the Restless in 2014 and 2017, respectively.

So, if you haven’t seen her before, I think you guys will really like her. And Kelly began taping her scenes as Darcy Dylan this past Tuesday, August 4th. We’re going to see Kelly Sullivan’s B&B debut as Darcy on Thursday, August 27th. And this is good timing because Dylan could really use her mom right now because Katie Logan is coming down really hard on Dylan for wanting to be with Will.

The Bold and Beautiful: Darcy Arrives to Defend Dylan

And again, this is kind of out of character stuff with Katie being so vicious to this girl Dylan that she really knows nothing about, when Katie seems fine with Electra Forester (Laneya Grace), who has been so horrible to Will and has dumped him over and over, has judged him and Electra has never shown him any loyalty.

But Katie is convinced that Dylan is just social climbing by taking an interest in Will. And Electra has already decided Dylan’s a gold digger. But I thought she was very respectful to Katie and very honest. But honestly, at this point, Katie’s acting like a Forrester the way she’s talking to Dylan.

So, I’m very excited to see her mom, Darcy, show up in LA to defend her daughter. And we’re going to talk about what we might see once Dylan’s mama shows up on the bold scene later this month. First of all, I bet that Darcy’s daughter will tell her that Katie has been accusing her of lying and having an agenda and gold digging just because she was a fan of their magazine when she was growing up.

Bold and the Beautiful: Katie’s Mind Made Up

And of course, Katie said that Dylan’s trying to latch onto Will’s wealthy family. But as far as I can see, Dylan is a good girl who was probably raised right, and Katie’s not really being fair. So, Darcy may lay into Katie. From the second she saw Dylan at Will’s place and realized who she was, Katie has been convinced that Dylan is only interested in Will because she’s social climbing.

Also, Katie’s been really nasty calling her by her name over and over like it’s some kind of curse word. Lots of people go by different names. The good news is Will, Bill Spencer (Don Diamont), and Wyatt Spencer (Darin Brooks) all seem pro-Dylan. So, maybe they’ll push back on Katie. And then I expect Dylan’s mom, Darcy, to really push back on Katie and especially if she sees her coming in hot at Dylan in front of her.

Darcy in the Dark on B&B

Another thing that I’m interested to see is Darcy’s reaction to finding out that Dylan was homeless and that her daughter was living in her car and then living over Will’s garage before she landed the job at Forrester and the job at Bikini.

And with two jobs, she’s paying her own bills. I’m sure that Darcy doesn’t know that Dylan was homeless or she’d have told her kid to come home or Darcy might have sent money to her. But we know Dylan’s a hard worker who wants to pay her own way.

Also, Darcy, you know, may not know that Dylan was tied up and held hostage by Luna Nozawa (Lisa Yamada) at gunpoint. So, I also wonder if Darcy knows that her daughter Dylan ran over and killed Luna. There may be some serious catching up that Dylan needs to do with her mom, Darcy.

And also, I expect Dylan might tell Darcy the awful thing Remy Pryce (Christian Weissmann) did to Electra with the deep fake nudes. Because Remy is Darcy’s nephew, she might ask Dylan about him and be totally shocked to hear what happened.

And I’m sure that Dylan’s also going to have to explain to her mom about her complicated dynamic with her ex-best friend, Electra. She told Dylan, of course, that she couldn’t date Will. But Dylan decided to pursue him anyway. And Will’s not going to listen to his mom, Katie. He already said he plans to keep seeing Dylan.

The Bold and the Beautiful: Darcy Meets the Spencers

And in fact, between now and when her mom Darcy shows up, Dylan and Will are going to get intimate. So by the time Darcy comes to LA, she will likely be meeting Will as Dylan’s love interest. And his mom, Katie, of course, as the overbearing person who’s talking nasty about her daughter.

I am looking forward to a showdown if Katie actually has the nerve to talk smack about Dylan right in front of her mom, Darcy. So, this week when Katie was blathering about how Electra is lovely and poised and basically better than Dylan, I was rolling my eyes. Electra is a brat who broke Will’s heart.

Also, speaking of Electra, I think Darcy might have some things to say to Electra for the way that she has treated Dylan because for a while now she has been bullying her, making unreasonable and unfair ultimatums. And aside from the verbal conflicts that Electra’s done to Dylan, we all saw Electra slap her. That was really wrong. I’d like to see Dylan report it to HR at Forrester Creations.

Forrester Creations Toxicity on Bold and Beautiful

Except I’m guessing they don’t have HR because there’s all kinds of nonsense that goes on there. It’s that toxic culture thing that’s now becoming public knowledge. I’m sure that Darcy is not going to be a fan of Electra at all. And I would also expect that Darcy will meet Bill Spencer and the rest of the family once she gets to LA and finds out, you know, that Dylan is seeing Will.

I do expect that Bill and Wyatt should be welcoming and Will should be too. But Katie might continue to be judgmental about Dylan without even getting to know the girl at all. I could see Katie telling Darcy, “You need to take Dylan and leave. Go back where you came from.” It could be really contentious. But what I can say is I’m super excited Dylan’s mom is coming to B&B and I’m thrilled that they cast Kelly Sullivan and I think y’all are going to love her.
