A group of health experts have shared eight red flag cancer symptoms that men in particular need to be aware of.
Robert M. Young, whose 70-year career included independent and studio documentaries, narrative features, and episodes of Battlestar: Galactica, died Tuesday in Los Angeles at 99. His death was confirmed in a Facebook post by his son.
Carlos Aguilar The graceful movements of 12-year-old Anthony Madu, a boy from Lagos, Nigeria, with a zeal for ballet, are inherently cinematic: arms stretched out to the sky, his body contorting like a determined feather fending off a gust of wind, just before he pirouettes with elegant agility that commands attention. At school, however, he faces constant bullying since his passion doesn’t fit his country’s traditional gender role expectations.
Ricky Gervais was once a thriving pop star before he made his career in comedy.The British comedian, 62, actually moonlighted as a singer in the 1980s, forming a band called Seona Dancing.The “Office” star created the pop duo with friend Bill Macrae during their senior year at University College London in 1983.The pair was signed by London Records at the time and even released two tracks: “More to Lose” and “Bitter Heart.”In a resurfaced video, Gervais can be seen crooning his heart out in typical ’80s fashion while Macrae played the piano.“Yearly reminder that Ricky Gervais once performed a would-be New Romantic classic in front of a bunch of grade schoolers,” the account called “Terribly Awesome Covers” captioned the jaw-dropping clip.
Jason Orange has been spotted wrapped up against the cold in London, in a rare sighting of the reclusive former Take That star.The 53 year old ex-singer has lived ‘off-grid’ in his Cotswolds country home, ever since he shocked fans by quitting the popular group 10 years ago. Former bandmates described how he had stopped responding to emails and calls in his bid to stay out of the limelight.
Luther Vandross‘ voice was the soundtrack of many Black millennial childhoods. Personally, I would wake up every Sunday to church music followed by his hit single “Never Too Much” which still stops most people in their tracks to this day. In the documentary, Luther: Never Too Much, director Dawn Porter chronicles a his journey to stardom and how he manifested the career he desired.
Wait, Gwen Stefani was in a band before her solo career?

SAS: Who Dares Wins star Ollie Ollerton has opened up about his decision to go sober, revealing that one of the scariest things about giving up alcohol was that he “never knew” who he was without booze. During an interview with OK!, the former Special Forces soldier spoke about his sobriety and how he transformed his relationship with alcohol thanks to the hit Channel 4 show. “The biggest thing for me was that I never knew who I was.

Twenty years before landing an Oscar nomination for Killers of the Flower Moon, Lily Gladstone was visualizing winning an Academy Award.
Clayton Davis Senior Awards Editor “Oppenheimer” has surged ahead of its competition, potentially becoming one of the most dominant Oscar winners since “Slumdog Millionaire” (2008), which garnered eight statuettes. Looking at the state of the race post-nominations, the Universal Pictures’ blockbuster could make an even bigger impact. Christopher Nolan’s historical drama about the father of the Atomic bomb leads the tally with 13, making it the 11th movie to reach such a gargantuan Oscars nomination count.
Colman Domingo organized his closet to distract himself, “The Holdovers” actor Paul Giamatti was sound asleep and “Killers of the Flower Moon” breakout Lily Gladstone texted with Leonardo DiCaprio after making history as the first Native American nominee. On the morning of the 2024 Oscar nominations, Variety spoke to this year’s contenders — including “The Holdovers” star Da’Vine Joy Randolph and “Past Lives” director Celine Song — about getting recognized by the Academy. How does it feel to make history with this nomination? It’s truly something that belongs to my community.
Marc Malkin Senior Editor, Culture and Events Shortly after the Oscar nominations were announced on Tuesday morning, “Oppenheimer” director Christopher Nolan recalled watching Cillian Murphy transform into J. Robert Oppenheimer for the first time. “It was really in the hair and makeup tests, which we shoot on Imax and in black-and-white,” Nolan told Variety.
Universal’s Oppenheimer led all nominees for the 96th Oscars on Tuesday with 13, one short of tying for the most nominations in a single year.
Todd Gilchrist editor Although it isn’t structured any differently from dozens of other cradle-to-grave documentaries about artistic luminaries, “Luther: Never Too Much” sheds light on much more than just the life and career of R&B singer Luther Vandross. Drawn largely from interview and performance footage of Vandross over his almost 40 years in entertainment, and bolstered and contextualized by retrospective talks will collaborators and confidantes, director Dawn Porter’s film exposes some uneasy truths about the music industry and the media we may now know, but whose seeming ubiquitousness at the time he was alive may be difficult to fully comprehend.
Peter Debruge Chief Film Critic Taking a one-for-us victory lap after one-for-them studio smash “Captain Marvel,” indie duo Ryan Fleck and Anna Boden blow a big, self-indulgent kiss to the late-’80s East Bay with “Freaky Tales.” Berkeley-born Fleck was all of 10 years old in early 1987, when this nostalgia-fueled anthology film is set, which explains the wide-eyed way he romanticizes the defining subcultures of the time (with Boden presumably doing her best to broaden the film’s incredibly specific, “you had to be there“ appeal). In four distinct but intertwining chapters — populated mostly with fresh faces, plus grizzled-but-gorgeous Pedro Pascal — “Freaky Tales” melds wildly different sectors of the city: There’s the rowdy-yet-respectful Gilman Street punk crowd; the revolutionary Oakland hip-hop scene (including Too $hort, whose raunchy rap anthem gives the film its name); the Warriors’ historic victory over the Lakers, in which local basketball legend Eric “Sleepy” Jones scored a record-setting 29 points in the fourth quarter; and a disturbing spike in neo-Nazi-linked hate crimes, which strangely serves to tie everything else together.
