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.”

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.

‘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.

‘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.

‘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.

‘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.

‘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.

‘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.

General Hospital just saw Jacinda Bracken (Paige Herschell) drug Willow Tait’s (Katelyn MacMullen) iced coffee. So, now we’re waiting to see what is going to happen when the drugs kick in. This could change everything for Michael Corinthos (Rory Gibson) and his ex-wife.

And I can see Willow winding up totally humiliated. So, we’re going to talk about exactly how Jacinda’s plot to punish Willow plays out and where Willow might be when that little pill kicks in.

Jacinda Plots on General Hospital

So, we just saw Jacinda get a little baggie of pills from Ezra Boyle (Daniel Cosgrove). Jacinda apparently left at her favorite ex-customer’s place a few months ago. These are some kind of anti-anxiety medication maybe. Or something like that. Because she told Ezra she needed them to take the edge off after Willow hit her with that restraining order.

Michael doesn’t know yet that Willow filed legal papers to keep Jacinda away from Wylie and Amelia. But the court thought that her arrest record of prostitution was enough for a ban on her being around the kids. And that could hurt Michael in custody court that a judge signed off on this against his girlfriend Jacinda.

Then Willow told Nina Reeves (Cynthia Watros) about the restraining order and her mom freaked. She told Willow she needs to stop antagonizing Michael. And definitely needs to drop trying to get the PCPD to reopen the case into Drew Cain’s (Cameron Mathison) shooting. You know, Nina told her, Jack Brennan (Chris McKenna) told her, she’s not listening.

And then when Jacinda dropped off Nina’s dry cleaning at her apartment. So Jacinda was left alone with the coffees and dropped a pill into Willow’s iced treat. So now, since Jacinda left those pills at Ezra’s. And he seemed to know what they were, I assume that Jacinda has taken them at his place. They’re not like the ketamine.

If you remember that Nina and Portia had given Jacinda to dose Drew Cain Quartermaine (Cameron Mathison). Because that was a liquid. So, this is different. But if it’s anti-anxiety medication or a tranquilizer of some sort, it could really mess Willow up. Since she probably has no tolerance for it and certainly wasn’t expecting to be drugged.

Willow’s Potential Public Humiliation on GH

So, the first thing is after Willow leaves Nina’s place, she might all of a sudden get woozy and start driving erratically. You know, we don’t know if the kids are going to be in the car. If she does, obviously, Willow would have no idea she had drugs in her system. If she got pulled over and arrested for driving under some kind of influence, that would obviously be front page news.

It would ruin her rep as a congresswoman. And of course, Jacinda would be thrilled to see Willow humiliated. Just like when it happened to Drew. And that means Willow’s rep would be tarnished. She would probably lose her seat. And then Michael could leverage that incident.

But Willow was just telling her mom, Nina, it’s the perfect time. She said it’s the best moment to make a move against Michael. Because she’s never been in a place of power like this. But a DWI arrest would be really bad for Willow in custody court. And of course, that is Jacinda’s intention.

Willow Makes a Move on Chase on General Hospital

Another thing is the pills might loosen up Willow. And she does something crazy like she gets in a situation where she makes a move on Harrison Chase (Josh Swickard). You know, she might run into him out in public somewhere and start to get flirty and handsy. Or if Willow is brought in for suspicion of DWI and sees Chase, she might get frisky with him up at the PCPD.

We know Willow is definitely still hung up on Chase. And we’ll see how much she is if she runs into him when she’s got lowered inhibitions from that pill in her coffee and starts making moves. Even worse if she did it in front of Brook Lynn Quartermaine (Amanda Setton). Now that Willow and Drew are getting divorced, I could definitely see Willow making a move.

Now, I don’t think that Willow would usually be that blatant. But if this relaxation drug has her all loose and open, she might confess to Chase that she still wants him. Not being in her right mind, we could see Willow planting a kiss on Chase, which would mortify him and would be a really bad look for her.

Worst-Case Scenarios for Willow on GH

Another thing is that Willow might take the kids to the Metro Court pool and then the drugs kick in. You know, maybe she passes out on the chair while Wylie and Amelia are in the pool and without supervision, one of the kids, maybe Amelia. Because she’s younger might fall in the pool and then someone has to save them.

And that would be really horrific. Because there would be a lot of witnesses to the kids in the pool and Willow looking drunk or high or passed out. That would make her look like an unfit mother, especially if they then test her and there’s drugs found in her system. That would be great for Michael, which is ultimately what Jacinda is trying for. And that would be, of course, a nightmare for Willow and would wreck her in custody court.

General Hospital: Willow Goes Wild

And another thing we might see is they redo kind of what they did with Drew’s night of drugging and have Willow making a scene at the Metro Court or another establishment like Drew did when he was drugged with ketamine. But instead of doing body shots off somebody, maybe we’ll have somebody doing body shots off Willow. I could absolutely see her letting loose and getting rowdy if she’s hopped up on drugs. And that could definitely cost her her seat in Congress and her kids, which would thrill Jacinda.

But I think Michael is going to be horrified that Jacinda drugged the mother of his children. Another thing is we might also see Willow starting something with Drew, attacking him. Maybe not physically, maybe verbally. But out in public and airing some of their bad marriage dirty laundry. Willow has so much anger and hatred that’s built up towards Drew.

So, if those drugs loosen her tongue, Willow might cause a scene. And that would be amazing for Drew. Because if Willow went crazy and actually laid hands on him, somebody might call the cops and Willow could be arrested. And then it would be even worse if she was tested and they found these drugs in her system and she denies it. But they’re there.

Jacinda May Push Michael Too Far on General Hospital

I will say this, there are a couple of good reasons that Michael might be quite upset at what Jacinda has done to Willow. And we know that Michael’s losing his temper and asking Jacinda, “What did you do?” by the end of this week. So, one reason that Michael might be upset is if Willow has the kids with her when the pills kick in.

That alone might be enough for Michael to dump Jacinda. If she put his kids in danger with this petty revenge plot against Willow. Obviously, Michael would understand Jacinda’s frustration at being hit with the restraining order. But what she did to Willow is not the way to make things better. This is her little going rogue plot we’ve been talking about for a while.

Jacinda’s Scheme Brings Up Past Trauma for Michael

The second reason that Michael may not like this scheme of Jacinda’s is. Because something similar was done to him. I don’t know if you remember. But years back when Michael was angry at Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard), he got custody of Avery Jerome Corinthos (Scarola twins) when she was a baby.

And Morgan Corinthos (Bryan Craig) and Kiki Jerome (Haley Erin) were targeting Michael and they replaced his allergy medication with some sort of roofie and he took his allergy pills and he had a little drink. He wasn’t like boozing heavily. But as a result, he had an incident where he was just like blurry and he tipped over Avery’s stroller and it was caught on camera.

And if I recall correctly, that might have been what cost Michael custody of his little sister Avery. And then later, Sabrina Santiago (Teresa Castillo) tested his allergy meds and she figured out that he had been drugged and then it came out that Morgan and Kiki had done it to him. So, this might hit way too close to home for Michael and he might decide Jacinda truly is not the kind of woman he can allow around his kids, no matter if her plan succeeds and it helps him with the Willow problem.

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.

18

“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.

Jade Haliburton, the wife of Indiana Pacers star Tyrese Haliburton, showed off her massive new bling just days after the couple’s wedding. 

Tyrese, 27, and Jade, 28, sat courtside at the WNBA game between the Indiana Fever and Las Vegas Aces on Thursday, August 6. The couple were shown on the Jumbotron during a break in play, when Jade held up her huge wedding ring for the camera. 

“The Haliburtons are in the house for tonight’s @indianafever game 💍,” the Pacers shared via Instagram. 

Jade commented, “my husbanddddddd 😭😭😭😭😭❤️.”

“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.

Aaron Rodgers and his family may have found their way back to each other, but he is now setting strict boundaries regarding his newly restored family relationships. 

Years of strife kept Aaron from his family members, but a timely social media post shared in late July confirmed that the hatchet had finally been buried.  

Interestingly, many factors played a role in Aaron’s reconciliation with his family, including his wife, Brittani, who helped him keep an open mind.

During a candid conversation, Aaron clarified his decision regarding social media. The 42-year-old quarterback explained that his late July Instagram uploads featuring his parents, along with his older brother, were intended as a final gesture to conclude a long-standing public narrative. 

Viewing the post as a symbolic moment in his recent journey, he noted, “I feel like it was part of the full-circle nature of this last season for me.”

The football player emphasized that he prefers to keep personal matters out of the public eye, particularly given the amount of inaccurate rumors that have circulated over the years. 

“I think that the personal life should stay personal and private. But I feel like it was part of the full-circle to just one time post something, and never again,” Aaron told USA Today Sports.

When asked about public scrutiny, the athlete dismissed it, explaining that he doesn’t “give a [crap]” about anything people think about him, except those in his corner. 

Aaron Rodgers Recently Reflected On Family Feud And His Desire For Privacy

In addition to establishing firm boundaries regarding his online presence, the Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback also addressed the long-standing rift that previously separated his family.

Speaking on the resolution of the conflict, he pointedly noted the difference in how various family members handled the feud publicly over the years. 

According to The Blast, he reiterated his long-held belief that personal disagreements should remain away from headlines. This seemed to subtly address past commentary made by his brother Jordan during their separation.

“Now, not everybody in the family adhered to the same thing, but there are different things, situations, experiences, and people that actually change your life,” he quipped.

Despite the differing approaches to privacy in the past, the athlete expressed heartfelt appreciation to be able to finally move past the hostility.

Aaron Rodgers’ Wife, Brittani, Played A Huge Role In The Family Reconciliation

Further reflecting on the end of the family feud, Aaron explained how his marriage marked the true turning point in resolving the issue. He credited his wife, Brittani, for creating a safe space that allowed him to reconsider reaching out to his parents and siblings. 

“A big part of it was getting married, and having those conversations with my wife that allowed me to kind of open up to the possibility of coming together,” he revealed, per The Blast.

He emphasized that Brittani never pressured him into making amends, but rather that her steady affection and encouragement gave him the comfort needed to reconnect with his loved ones.

Aaron Rodgers’ Family Reunion Had Begun Long Before The Public Became Aware

Even though the family reunion seemed to have occurred at the time of the social media post made in July, reports indicate that the reconciliation was actually the result of a gradual, quiet process. 

The Blast previously reported that the Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback spent time with his parents, Ed and Darla Rodgers, months prior to his online post. 

The path toward healing actually began with a quiet, private meeting between the athlete and his father back in 2023. 

Video footage captured Aaron interacting warmly with his mother and father at the inaugural Athletics Hall of Fame ceremony for Pleasant Valley High School in Chico, California, where he was being recognized. 

As he accepted his induction into the school’s newly established hall of fame class, he took a moment during his induction speech to express public appreciation for his parents’ support. 

Aaron Rodgers’ Public Announcement Was A Confirmation Of The Reconciliation

Years after Aaron publicly thanked his parents in his acceptance speech, he then shared the social media post, which marked the moment the public first learned of the family’s progress.

The images captured warm moments with his mother, father, and older brother, Luke, as well as a sweet shot of the quarterback helping construct a toy for his young niece.

In the caption, Aaron wrote, “Another bonding week #fam.”

Additionally, resurfaced information further confirmed that the athlete and his father also unexpectedly crossed paths at the American Century Championship celebrity golf tournament in Lake Tahoe back in July 2023. 

According to The Blast, Aaron greeted his father with “Hi, Pops,” leading to an emotional embrace where both exchanged declarations of love.
