Paramount+ is the home for all of Taylor Sheridan’s shows, but the platform has plenty of other hit series to dive into, such as the CBS thriller series Tracker. The Justin Hartley-led crime thriller show premiered back in 2024, and while it flew relatively under the radar in the months leading up to its worldwide debut, it’s quietly become one of CBS’ most important shows in the last two years. The first season of Tracker went off the air in May 2024, and the series returned mere months later with its second season, which ran from October 2024 to May 2025. In keeping with tradition, Tracker Season 3 arrived last year in October, and there are now only a few episodes remaining in Season 3, which will conclude with a finale on May 24. It’s already been renewed for Season 4, which will almost certainly be back before the end of 2026.
For three full seasons now, most of Tracker has been filmed in Vancouver, Canada, despite the show taking place in various locations around the United States. However, news broke this afternoon that Tracker is making a huge change in Season 4 that’s going to rock the series to its core. It’s been reported that Tracker is officially packing up and leaving Vancouver and relocating to Los Angeles for production on Season 4, which will begin in June. This comes with the help of a $48 million tax credit to shoot in California, which will certainly help the series find its roots once it’s ready to begin production on its next season. This is an even bigger tax credit than the popular Prime Video sci-fi series Fallout ($42 million) received to shoot in Los Angeles.

Collider Exclusive · Action Hero Quiz Which Action Hero Would Be Your Perfect Partner? Rambo · James Bond · Indiana Jones · John McClane · Ethan Hunt
Five legends. Five completely different ways of getting out alive — with style, with muscle, with charm, with luck, or with a plan so intricate it probably shouldn’t work. Ten questions will reveal which action hero was built to have your back.
🎖️Rambo
🍸James Bond
🏺Indiana Jones

🔧John McClane
🎭Ethan Hunt

01
You’re dropped into a dangerous situation with no warning. What do you need most from a partner? The first few seconds tell you everything about who belongs beside you.
Advertisement
02
You have to get somewhere dangerous, fast. How do you travel? How you get there is half the mission.
Advertisement
03
You’re pinned down and outnumbered. What does your ideal partner do? This is when you find out what someone is really made of.
Advertisement
04
The mission is paused. You have one evening to decompress. What does your partner suggest? Who someone is when the pressure drops is who they actually are.
Advertisement
05
How do you prefer your partner to communicate mid-mission? Good communication is the difference between partners and a liability.
Advertisement
06
Your enemy is powerful, well-resourced, and has the upper hand. How should your partner approach them? The approach to the enemy defines the partnership.
Advertisement
07
Things go badly wrong and you’re captured. What do you trust your partner to do? Who someone is when you need them most is the only thing that matters.
Advertisement
08
What does your ideal partner bring to the table that you couldn’t replace? A great partner fills the gap you didn’t know you had.
Advertisement
09
Every partnership has a cost. Which of these can you live with? No one comes without baggage. The question is whether you can carry it together.
Advertisement
10
It’s the final moment. Everything is on the line. What do you need from your partner right now? The last question is the most honest one.

Your Partner Has Been Assigned Your Perfect Partner Is…
Your answers have pointed to one action hero above all others. This is the person built to have your back — for better or considerably, spectacularly worse.
Advertisement
Rambo
Your partner doesn’t talk much, doesn’t need to, and will have assessed every threat in your immediate environment before you’ve finished your first sentence. John Rambo is not a man of plans or politics — he is a force of nature shaped by survival, loyalty, and a capacity for endurance that goes beyond anything training can produce. He will not leave you behind. He has never left anyone behind who deserved to come home. What you get with Rambo is the most capable, most quietly ferocious partner imaginable — one who has been through things that would have broken anyone else, and who chose to keep going anyway. You’ll never need to ask if he has your back. You’ll just know.
James Bond
Advertisement
Your partner will arrive perfectly dressed, perfectly briefed, and with a cover story so convincing it’ll take you a moment to remember what’s actually true. James Bond is the most professionally dangerous person in any room he enters — and the most disarmingly charming, which is the point. He operates in a world of layers, where nothing is what it appears and every advantage is used without apology. You’ll never be bored. You’ll occasionally be furious. But when it matters — when the mission is genuinely on the line and the margin for error has collapsed to nothing — Bond is exactly the partner you want. He has survived things that have no business being survivable. He does it with style. That is not nothing.
Indiana Jones
Your partner will know the history, the language, the cultural context, and exactly why the thing everyone else is ignoring is actually the most important thing in the room. Indiana Jones is brilliant, reckless, and occasionally impossible — but he is also one of the most resourceful, most genuinely knowledgeable partners you could find yourself beside. He approaches every situation with a scholar’s eye and a brawler’s instinct, which is an unusual combination and a remarkably effective one. He hates snakes and gets personally attached to objects of historical significance, both of which will slow you down at least once. It doesn’t matter. What Indy brings is irreplaceable — and the adventures you’ll have together will be the kind people write books about. Assuming you survive them.
Advertisement
John McClane
Your partner was not supposed to be here. He does not have the right equipment, the right information, or anything approaching the right odds. He has a sarcastic remark and an absolute refusal to accept that the situation is as bad as it looks. John McClane is the greatest accidental hero in the history of action cinema — a man whose superpower is stubbornness, whose contingency plan is improvisation, and whose capacity to absorb punishment and keep moving would be alarming if it weren’t so useful. He will complain the entire time. He will make it significantly more chaotic than it needed to be. And he will absolutely, unconditionally, without question come through when it counts. Yippee-ki-yay.
Advertisement
Ethan Hunt
Your partner has already run seventeen scenarios by the time you’ve finished reading the briefing, and the plan he’s settled on involves at least two things that should be physically impossible. Ethan Hunt operates at the absolute edge of human capability — technically, physically, and intellectually — and he brings the same relentless precision to protecting his partners that he brings to dismantling organisations that shouldn’t exist. He is not easy to know and he will never fully tell you everything. But he will carry the weight of the mission so completely, so absolutely, that your job is simply to trust him — and the remarkable thing is that trusting him always turns out to be the right call. The mission will be impossible. He will complete it anyway.

What Is ‘Tracker’ About?
Tracker is an unconventional procedural that follows Colter Shaw (played by Justin Hartley), who travels the country in his old-school RV, helping police and private citizens solve crimes and locate missing citizens. The show also briefly features The Boys Season 5 star Jensen Ackles as Colter’s brother, Russell Shaw, but it’s unclear at this time if he will be back in Season 4. Tracker was written and created for TV by Ben H. Winters, who previously worked as a writer on the popular FX series, Legion.

Check out the first three seasons of Tracker on CBS and Paramount+ and stay tuned to Collider for more updates and coverage of Season 4.
Shakira is embracing a new chapter after years of heartbreak, legal battles, and public scrutiny.
Fresh off another major victory in Spain and preparing to headline the first-ever FIFA World Cup Final halftime show, the global superstar is reflecting on the scars left behind by painful experiences that ultimately reshaped her.
From her emotional split with Gerard Piqué to finding healing through music and fans around the world, the Colombian icon says every difficult moment taught her something deeper about resilience and strength.
ZUMAPRESS.com / MEGA
Fresh off a busy photoshoot in New York City, Shakira opened up about the lessons she learned from the difficult moments that unfolded publicly over the last several years.
The singer was in full work mode while discussing plans for the music video tied to her new Burna Boy collaboration “Dai Dai,” which will serve as the official song for the 2026 FIFA World Cup.

Although the upbeat track celebrates soccer, parts of its message closely mirror Shakira’s personal journey. “What broke you once made you strong,” a part of the lyrics declares.
Speaking exclusively to PEOPLE, Shakira admitted that line felt especially meaningful after enduring several emotional setbacks. “I always thought that I was more fragile or weaker than what life proved me to be,” the star told the outlet.
She spent recent years dealing with her highly publicized split from retired soccer player Gerard Piqué, with whom she shares sons Milan and Sasha.
At the same time, she was fighting a lengthy tax fraud battle in Spain while continuing to perform and release music.

“Behind every experience in life, there’s always a lesson,” she said, adding, “We have to be grateful for all those lessons, even for the people that leave you with scars, because they just make us better.”
Shakira Reflected On Her Long Fight To Reach Global Stardom
MEGA
Long before becoming one of the biggest Latin artists in history, Shakira said she had to fight constantly for opportunities.
Over the course of her career, the 49-year-old has sold more than 95 million records worldwide and helped open doors for newer Latin stars including Bad Bunny and Karol G.
Still, she admitted the road to success was not always easy. “I had to really fight for my dreams,” Shakira shared.
Looking back at her younger self, the “Waka Waka” singer said she wishes she had embraced more confidence earlier in life instead of worrying about perfection.

“I would say to that girl back in her 20s to enjoy more, to believe in herself more,” she said.
Shakira also reflected on how growing older changed her outlook on beauty and self-worth. “I think women, as time goes by, we just acquire this new confidence,” she explained. “Even though we don’t look as perfect as in our 20s, it’s beautiful to just be yourself and accept who you are.”
Beyond music, Shakira has continued focusing on charitable work. She revealed that all royalties from “Dai Dai” will support the FIFA Global Citizen Education Fund, which provides children worldwide with access to education and soccer programs.
Shakira Returned To The World Cup Stage Years After Meeting Gerard Piqué
MEGA
Soccer has remained deeply connected to Shakira’s personal and professional life ever since she first performed at the 2010 World Cup.
“I have this connection with [soccer] that seems unbreakable,” she explained. That tournament became especially life-changing because it was where she first met Piqué.

The pair eventually built a family together before their relationship collapsed years later amid allegations of infidelity.
Now, Shakira is preparing for another major World Cup milestone. The Grammy winner will headline the inaugural World Cup halftime show at MetLife Stadium alongside Madonna and BTS.
Although details of the performance are still being finalized, she hinted the show will carry a larger message during a difficult global climate.
“Every World Cup is really magical. I think this one is going to be all about bringing people together in this very sensitive moment in time, socially and politically,” Shakira explained.

Shakira Turned Heartbreak Into One Of Her Biggest Career Comebacks
MEGA
Following her breakup from Piqué, Shakira used music as an emotional release. In January 2023, she released “Shakira: Bzrp Music Sessions, Vol. 53” alongside producer Bizarrap.
The song directly addressed the aftermath of the split and quickly became a global success.
“It was just pure catharsis. I really needed to write about what I was going through and not have any censor,” Shakira admitted.
The track debuted at No. 1 on Spotify’s Daily Global 200 chart and became her first Billboard Hot 100 Top 10 hit in more than a decade.
Shakira joked that songwriting became cheaper than therapy. She also credited the painful chapter with helping her realize how resilient she truly was.

“Through those challenging moments, I discovered how resilient we all are,” the singer shared.
During that period, Shakira said support from loved ones became essential. According to her, “Life is a b-tch, but it’s so worth living because friends are there for you.”
Shakira Celebrated A Huge Legal Victory While Preparing For Her Next Chapter
MEGA
Just days after her photoshoot, Shakira secured another major personal win when Spain’s National High Court cleared her of tax fraud allegations tied to her 2011 income.
The ruling overturned penalties previously imposed by Spanish tax authorities. According to her representative, the songwriter is expected to recover more than €60 million ($69.7 million).
“After more than eight years of enduring brutal public targeting, orchestrated campaigns to destroy my reputation and sleepless nights that ultimately impacted my health and my family’s well-being, the National High Court has finally set the record straight,” Shakira said in a statement.

The star is now preparing for the U.S. leg of her world tour beginning June 13, with her sons expected to join her on the road.
Meanwhile, Shakira insists she still feels energized about what comes next, despite already spending three decades in the industry.
“You know what’s strange? I’ve done this professionally 30 years already,” Shakira said, “and it feels to me like I’m just starting.”

Best of the World with Antoni Porowski – Premiere – All Episodes Streaming
“Nobody knows who you are, nobody cares about you,” Kelly Cutrone said of Manuel, who harshly criticized Banks in Netflix’s “America’s Next Top Model” doc.
The X-Files is one of the most fascinating shows in genre history for the worst possible reason. The show dominated much of the ‘90s because it capitalized on the advent of the World Wide Web and America’s growing fascination with conspiracy theories. The fan-favorite monster of the week episodes could make even the most mundane things (including air-conditioning vents and flukeworms) into the scariest things imaginable. Beyond that, the show teased audiences with a growing mythology that involved government collaboration with nefarious aliens who wanted to dominate the world. Unfortunately, The X-Files dropped the ball when the show had to stop teasing and actually provide answers to its many mysteries.
The longer you watch the series, the clearer it becomes that showrunner Chris Carter was making most of this stuff up as he went along. He didn’t have much of a plan, really, beyond getting fans to tune back in each week. Arguably, though, he was always doomed to failure, as getting answers to huge mysteries is never as exciting as just speculating (just ask Lost fans). While Carter couldn’t see that, one of his best writers could. When writing the largely forgotten episode “Blood,” Glen Morgan deliberately never revealed who or what was sending out subliminal messages, reasoning that audiences would be much happier coming to their own conclusions.
The Power Of Subliminal Messages
“Blood” was a Season 2 X-Files episode that dealt with one of the hottest topics of the ‘90s: crazy postal workers! The plot involves a postman who, right before he gets laid off, starts seeing subliminal messages like “Kill’em All” pop up on various electronics readouts. This happens to other people in the town, too, who try to kill people (including Mulder and Scully) after receiving similar instructions. Eventually, Mulder realizes that people are being sprayed with pesticides by a crop duster that makes them susceptible to these subliminal messages. Fortunately, he and Scully are ultimately able to stop the postal worker from committing a mass shooting from the top of a clock tower.
When you watch the episode, the first question you’re likely to ask is who is sending these subliminal messages and why. Mulder speculates that the government is deliberately doing this, much like they previously did with “D.D.T. in the 50’s, Agent Orange,” and “germ warfare on unsuspecting neighborhoods.” After Scully asks why the government would intentionally create a self-destructive population, Mulder replies, “Fear. It’s the oldest tool of power. If you’re distracted by fear of those around you, it keeps you from seeing the actions of those above.” Notably, his theory is never proven, and a creepy message sent to his phone (“ALL DONE. BYE-BYE”) implies the experiment is over.
Not Sweating The Small Stuff
So, who actually sent the subliminal messages? Nobody knows, and that’s the point! As published in The Truth Is Out There: The Official Guide to The X-Files, “Blood” writer Glen Morgan had absolutely no idea when writing this episode who or what was sending these subliminal messages. He also didn’t care, believing it would be better for the audience to try to figure everything out on their own. In this way, everyone watching the episode is a bit like Mulder: we can speculate as to the evil forces behind this widespread human experimentation, but we’ll never know for sure.
In retrospect, this is the approach Chris Carter should have taken with the mythology of The X-Files. Because the show’s slogan was “The Truth Is Out There” and Mulder was a crusader for revealing government secrets, Carter felt compelled to eventually give us very granular information about the aliens and their planned invasion of Earth. But everything got confusing as we got info about creepy black oil, infected bees, alien bounty hunters, mysterious vaccines, and government super-soldiers. Later, the awful X-Files revival retconned almost everything, revealing that aliens were actually peaceful, and evil government forces were staging fake abductions while trying to exploit advanced technology.
Advertisement
That final revelation effectively ruined the entire series for fans who had been enjoying The X-Files for decades. Looking back, it’s clear that Carter should never have revealed anything and left these mysteries for fans to argue about. Would audiences have been pissed about being led on and never getting a real payoff? Probably. But at the end of the day, those angry fans would have come up with a headcanon that was infinitely better than the answers we got and eventually gotten over their annoyance. Now, though, the fandom will never get over how badly the coolest mythology in television history was ultimately handled.
Anya Taylor-Joy is quickly becoming one of Apple TV’s most valuable stars. After leading The Gorge alongside Miles Teller, a sci-fi thriller that became Apple TV’s biggest movie launch ever, the actress with the most fascinating multicultural background is already lining up her next major project for the streamer. This time around, there’s no monsters or snipers or a terrifying abyss with nothing in it but suffering — probably for the best — because she’s trading it for a con artist thriller with a pretty sweet cast. And now we know when we’ll get to see it, and what we can expect when we do.
Apple TV has just unveiled the very slick trailer for Lucky, the exciting new seven-episode limited series starring and executive produced by Taylor-Joy. The series will premiere globally on Apple TV with its first two episodes on Wednesday, July 15, 2026, followed by new episodes every Wednesday through August 19.
The series is based on the New York Times bestselling novel of the same name, written by Marissa Stapley, and follows a con artist whose latest job lands her in a bit of a pickle when a multimillion dollar heist goes terribly wrong. Lucky goes on the run but, with the FBI and a pretty ticked off crime boss closing in on her, she’s got to confront her demons and find a way out before her mistakes catch up to her.

Collider Exclusive · Sci-Fi Survival Quiz Which Sci-Fi World Would You Survive? The Matrix · Mad Max · Blade Runner · Dune · Star Wars
Five universes. Five completely different ways the future went wrong — or sideways, or up in flames. Only one of them is the world your instincts were built for. Eight questions will figure out which dystopia, galaxy, or desert wasteland you’d actually make it out of alive.
💊The Matrix
🔥Mad Max
🌧️Blade Runner

🏜️Dune
🚀Star Wars
Advertisement
01
You sense something is deeply wrong with the world around you. What do you do? The first instinct is often the truest one.
Advertisement
02
In a world of scarcity, what resource do you guard most fiercely? What we protect reveals what we believe survival actually requires.
Advertisement
03
What kind of threat keeps you up at night? Fear is useful data — if you’re honest about what you’re actually afraid of.
Advertisement
04
How do you deal with authority you don’t trust? Every dystopia has a power structure. Your approach to it determines everything.
Advertisement
05
Which environment could you actually endure long-term? Survival isn’t just tactical — it’s physical, psychological, and very much about where you are.
Advertisement
06
Who do you want in your corner when things fall apart? The company you keep is the clearest signal of who you actually are.
Advertisement
07
Where do you draw the line — if you draw one at all? Every survivor eventually faces a moment that tests what they’re actually made of.
Advertisement
08
What would actually make survival worth it? Staying alive is one thing. Having a reason to is another.

Your Fate Has Been Calculated You’d Survive In…
Your answers point to the world your instincts were built for. This is the universe your temperament, your survival instincts, and your particular brand of stubbornness were made for.
Advertisement
The Resistance, Zion
The Matrix
You took the red pill a long time ago — probably before anyone offered it to you. You’re a systems thinker who can’t help but notice the seams in things.
Advertisement
You’re drawn to understanding how the system works before figuring out how to break it.
You’d find the Resistance, or it would find you — your instinct for spotting constructed realities is the machines’ worst nightmare.
You function best when you have access to information and the freedom to act on it.
The Matrix built an airtight prison. You’d be the one probing the walls for the door.
The Wasteland
Mad Max
The wasteland doesn’t reward the clever or the well-connected — it rewards those who are hard to kill and harder to break. That’s you.
Advertisement
You don’t need comfort, community, or a cause larger than the next horizon.
You need a vehicle, a clear threat, and enough fuel to outrun it — and you’re good at all three.
You are unsentimental enough to survive that world, and decent enough — just barely — to be something more than another raider.
In the wasteland, that distinction is everything.
Los Angeles, 2049
Blade Runner
You’d survive here because you know how to exist in moral grey areas without losing yourself completely.
Advertisement
You read people accurately, keep your circle small, and ask the questions others prefer not to answer.
In a city where humanity is a legal designation rather than a feeling, you hold onto something that keeps you functional.
You’re not a hero. But you’re not lost, either.
In Blade Runner’s world, that distinction is everything.
Arrakis
Dune
Arrakis is the most hostile environment in the known universe — and you are precisely the kind of person it rewards.
Advertisement
Patience, discipline, and political awareness are your core strengths — and on Arrakis, they’re survival tools.
You understand that the long game matters more than any single victory.
Others come to Dune and are consumed by it. You’d learn its logic and earn its respect.
In time, you wouldn’t just survive Arrakis — you’d begin to reshape it.
A Galaxy Far, Far Away
Star Wars
The galaxy far, far away is vast, loud, and in a constant state of violent political upheaval — and you wouldn’t have it any other way.
Advertisement
You find meaning in being part of something larger than yourself — a cause, a crew, a rebellion.
You’d gravitate toward the Rebellion, or the fringes, or whatever pocket of the galaxy still believes the Empire’s grip can be broken.
You fight — not because you have to, but because standing aside isn’t something you’re capable of.
In Star Wars, that willingness is what makes all the difference.

Who’s Involved in ‘Lucky’?
Alongside ATJ, the cast includes Annette Bening (Nyad), Timothy Olyphant (Justified), Aunjanue Ellis-Taylor (King Richard), Drew Starkey (Outer Banks), Clifton Collins Jr.(Capote), and William Fichtner (The Dark Knight). The series comes from the prolific creator Jonathan Tropper — who also created Your Friends & Neighbors, another Apple TV sensation with Jon Hamm, and who has written the next Star Wars movie, Starfighter — who also serves as co-showrunner, writer, and executive producer through his Tropper Ink banner under his overall deal with Apple TV.
Cassie Pappas executive produces and serves as co-showrunner alongside Tropper. Reese Witherspoon — who made the novel one of her Reese’s Book Club standouts — and Lauren Neustadter executive produce for Hello Sunshine, while Taylor-Joy executive produces through her production banner, LadyKiller. Jonathan van Tulleken, who directed the pilot, also executive produces.

As a franchise set in the far future, you might expect Star Trek to make some definitive, sweeping statements about the use of AI. However, various shows and movies have presented this technology as something of a double-edged sword. In Star Trek, AI powers the ship’s computers and holodecks, and it helps bring the beloved android officer Data to life. But AI is also responsible for numerous existential threats to the entire galaxy, including everything from evil androids like Lore to weapons of mass destruction like the Planet Killer and Control. Star Trek is ultimately very wishy-washy about this technology, presenting it as both a game-changer and a life-taker.
In the real world, the good of AI is quite outweighed by the bad. Sure, it can help you write emails and generate images, but it’s also being used by massive corporations to cut corners and give paying customers cheap slop, all so some rich exec doesn’t have to pay some poor, overworked creative. Now, Star Trek has officially become part of the problem. Recently, Paramount seemingly used AI to create a thumbnail of William Shatner for Paramount+, and it created the stupidest-looking image in Trek history. Unfortunately, this is now the inevitable future of the franchise: a studio phoning in even the most basic creative efforts, all to please a fandom that is quietly dying.
Meet AI Slop Captain Kirk
This story begins with the worst streaming service ever created: Paramount+. Like all streamers, this platform provides thumbnails for various movies. Normally, this is just a still from the film. For example, when you scroll down to Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country, you might see an image of James Doohan giving his best thousand-yard stare. If you scroll to Star Trek III: The Search For Spock, you might see that melty-faced weirdo that Dr. McCoy tries to hitch a ride with. However, when fans recently scrolled to Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan, they saw an insanely ugly image of William Shatner that was seemingly created by AI.
The image features Shatner staring into the camera with a relatively sedate look on his face. He is wearing a suit and tie, which is properly absurd. Not only does Admiral Kirk never wear this suit in The Wrath of Khan, but the only time he wore anything remotely like this was when he donned a pinstripe gangster suit in the Original Series cheesefest episode “A Piece of the Action.” The most notable thing about this thumbnail on Paramount + is that one of Shatner’s eyes has a weird red glow around it. The whole thing is surreal and looks like what would happen if the Borg decided to assimilate Don Draper.
Garbage In, Garbage Out
So, what the heck happened here? On Bluesky, Ryan Estrada seemingly cracked the case. The image of Shatner’s face mostly does come from The Wrath of Khan. It’s from the scene where Kirk completes a retinal scan before accessing classified information on Project Genesis. In the movie, this is an extreme close-up of Kirk’s face, one that cuts off his chin and almost everything above his eyes. The shot works well in the movie, but it would look absolutely terrible as a streaming thumbnail. Estrada’s theory (and one I certainly agree with) is that Paramount fed the movie image to a generative AI and asked it to flesh out the rest of his body.
However, the AI took more than a few liberties with Shatner’s character. It basically ruined the actor’s hairline (something previously only God could do), making Kirk look like a slicked-down Wall Street broker. It put him in a business suit for completely unknown reasons, making the image look instantly out of place as a Star Trek thumbnail. Most bizarrely, it didn’t remove the red light from the reticle scan, making Kirk look like he’s got the galaxy’s worst case of red eye (maybe the waste extraction department was slacking). As ugly as it is, though, the worst thing about this AI slop is how damn lazy it is.

AI Slop: The Future Of Star Trek
Star Trek is currently celebrating its 60th anniversary, and Paramount is hoping to revive the entire franchise with a brand new movie. But why would anyone want to watch a film by the same creatively bankrupt people who had to use AI to make a freakin’ thumbnail? These execs are stewards of the coolest sci-fi IP ever created, but they couldn’t be bothered to simply take a suitable screencap from The Wrath of Khan. Sadly, this AI screw-up is an indictment of what Star Trek has become: lazy slop made by lazier creatives who hope you’re too stupid to care about how bad this franchise has become.
They’re wrong, obviously, and Paramount is about to learn a very bitter lesson: the only thing they can’t gin up in AI is fans who actually care about Star Trek anymore!

Nicole Kidman‘s thick, glossy hair has become almost as recognizable as her film career. Whether she’s attending a premiere, posing on an awards show red carpet, or stepping out for a press appearance, her blonde strands always seem to have that healthy, expensive-looking shine, prompting people to wonder what she uses in her hair routine.
As it turns out, one of the products helping maintain that signature look is surprisingly attainable. Kidman, who serves as a brand ambassador for Virtue, has credited the brand’s Healing Oil with helping keep her hair looking healthy, smooth and strong — and the strengthening growth-focused treatment is available on Amazon for $46.

If your hair has lost some of its bounce and shine, Virtue Healing Oil is designed to help. The formula pairs moisture-rich Kalahari Melon Seed Oil with softening Tahitian Tiare Flower to help smooth dry ends, boost gloss and make hair feel noticeably silkier after styling.
Jennifer Aniston has spent three decades on magazine covers, red carpets and our television screens, and somehow her skin keeps looking better. That signature lit-from-within glow she’s been working lately? It’s not just good genes and good lighting. The Morning Show star has said in countless interviews that she prefers to let her skin breathe, […]
The real standout, though, is Virtue’s Alpha Keratin 60ku technology, which helps support damaged strands while improving softness and manageability. A few drops can help tame frizz, add that healthy-looking sheen and give color-treated hair a fresher appearance between salon visits — all without the heavy, slick finish that makes some oils difficult to wear during the day.
The reviews are where things really shine. With more than 1,000 five-star ratings, shoppers are clearly hooked. One reviewer said the oil leaves their hair “feeling like silk” without “weighing it down.” Another shared that it “literally saved” their “bleached sad strands” and “really helped revive” their hair after damage from coloring treatments.
Finding out that one of Hollywood’s most enviable heads of hair relies on a product that doesn’t require a celebrity budget is always satisfying. At $46, the strengthening treatment offers an easy way to add more shine, softness and healthy-looking movement to your routine — while taking a cue from Kidman’s famously glossy strands.

The Sopranos star Aida Turturro has recalled a heart attack she mistook for prolonged chest pains.
During a Tuesday, June 2, appearance on Jamie-Lynn Sigler and Christina Applegate’s “MeSsy” podcast, Turturro, 63, detailed her near-death experience that led to an emergency quadruple bypass surgery.
“I was having chest pains for a while, but a hiatal hernia can imitate it [a heart attack],” she said. “My friend’s like, ‘Should we call the ambulance?’ and I’m like, ‘Nah, I’m fine.’ I get in my car, I walk to my house … my cousin gave me his doctor’s number, his doctor answered and he’s like … ‘It sounds like you might need to go to a cardiologist.’ I go to the doctor, [an] amazing doctor, and he’s like, ‘Yeah, you had a heart attack.’”
Turturro, who played Janice Soprano, the aunt of Sigler’s Meadow Soprano on the HBO drama series, was then told that “88 to 90 per cent” of her arteries were clogged before she was “rushed to emergency” where she underwent heart surgery.

“I could’ve died, I should’ve died then, but I didn’t,” the actress concluded. She also explained that she had thought that she was suffering from a hiatal hernia, which Mayo Clinic describes as when “the upper part of the stomach bulges through the large muscle [diaphragm] that separates the abdomen and the chest,” because she suffered from diabetes.
“I was lucky it wasn’t my time … diabetes is the number one cause of heart disease,” she said.
Turturro added that as a result of the surprise emergency, she’s since become more aware of taking care of oneself. “I’m blessed with beautiful people in my life. It’s all in your brain. I learned my lessons, you have to take care of yourself,” she said on the podcast. “We can always do better but it’s really about, don’t do nothing. You can’t help your kids, you can’t help your family if you don’t do you. Get everybody involved [because] this is a priority. This is our life, we’re doing this together.”

Earlier this year, Drew Carey spoke out about ignoring heart attack symptoms of his own in 2001. “I was really overweight, and we were supposed to come back to start taping [The Drew Carey Show] … we were going to start taping so I [wanted] to lose some weight. So I thought I was going to start jogging,” the comedian, 67, said during the March 4 episode of Ted Danson’s “Where Everybody Knows Your Name” podcast. “I had a little heart monitor, and I was jogging down my street, and my heart rate went up to … something really crazy, and I was like, ‘Oh.’ And I felt numb in my shoulder [and] all the things that I read were heart attack symptoms.”
After experiencing further symptoms on set the following day, Carey was hospitalized before undergoing a coronary angioplasty.
Since his experience, through prioritizing a healthier lifestyle, Carey has lost 80 pounds through diet and exercise.

Those songs helped Bryson secure two Grammy Awards for Best Pop Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocals in 1992 and 1994. His smooth vocals and emotional delivery turned both tracks into timeless classics that continue reaching new generations decades later.
Bryson’s catalog stretched far beyond Disney, however. His career also included songs such as “As Long as There’s Christmas” with the late Roberta Flack, “By the Time This Night Is Over” with Kenny G, and “Without You” with Regina Belle.
In 2017, he reflected on recording “Beauty and the Beast” with Dion during an interview with CBC. Bryson admitted the recording session transformed once the pair became more comfortable with each other in the studio.
“I looked across at her, and she looked back at me and what went on from the point of becoming relaxed was extremely intimate,” Bryson explained. “You can’t buy that. You can record it, though.”

He also said successful duets required singers to balance one another’s strengths carefully. Bryson noted that when performers support each other equally, “there are no weaknesses.”
Peabo Bryson’s Career Began Long Before Disney Fame
Long before becoming a Disney favorite, Peabo Bryson was already building a respected music career in the 1970s. He first gained attention while performing with Moses Dillard and the Tex-Town Display before signing with Bang Records and launching his solo career.
By 1977, he was releasing music through Capitol Records, beginning with “Reaching for the Sky.” The singer soon became known for R&B hits including “Feel the Fire,” “I’m So into You,” and “Crosswinds.”
Speaking to Soul magazine in 1978, Bryson admitted music had always been the only career path that truly made sense to him.

“It’s all I ever wanted to really deal with,” he explained, adding that he briefly considered becoming a doctor before realizing music was his calling.
The 1980s brought even more mainstream success. His track “If Ever You’re in My Arms Again” cracked Billboard’s Top 10 in 1984, while his appearance on “One Life to Live” led to him recording a version of the soap opera’s theme song.
Throughout his career, Bryson released 20 studio albums and continued performing for decades, maintaining a devoted fan base.
