Weeks after Twitter demanded its childhood be protected from the blight of human teeth on a CGI hedgehog, Paramount has announced that the Sonic the Hedgehog release date has been pushed back to February 2020 in order to better align Sonic with conventional spiny mammal beauty standards.

If I have to hear this, fine: Ed Sheeran feat. Chance the Rapper and PnB Rock, “Cross Me” - I don’t particularly care for Ed Sheeran, save the one song he sings that’s good for weddings, but for some reason, this song is... fine? I’ve listened to it on repeat in order to fully immerse myself for this blurb and have…

Robert Pattinson made his first big impression on me as Cedric Diggory, a Hufflepuff Seeker, in the 2005 blockbuster Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. Although the young wizard met an untimely fate, Diggory remains one of the franchise’s most celebrated heroes. Pattinson, with his trademark quiet introspection,…

Oh lordy, Dionne Warwick has an opinion about kids these days.

WarnerMedia, one of the roughly four billion new streaming services currently in the works, has announced its first anthology series, Love Life, starring Anna Kendrick and produced by Paul Feig.

A classic tension driver in many romantic comedies is the truth universally acknowledged that rich people generally marry other rich people, both because only other rich people know not to gulp from the finger bowls like a dumpster cat and because not having enough money whilst being attracted to someone who has…

As often happens with contemporary art, the past few years have brought an influx of socially focused art that reflects the anxieties of the time. In this case, that anxiety is the specific issue of police brutality and the way it infects and affects black teens’ lives, and how they’re forced to cope with the trauma…

When Drake sits court side at a Toronto Raptors game, as he often does, he has, how shall we say this, a lively presence. He whoops, he screams, he claps so forcefully he inspires memes, and takes his official status as a “team ambassador” a little too seriously. He’s so annoying court side that the Milwaukee Bucks…

On Sunday, I woke up with two alternating songs stuck in my head: “Happy Not Knowing” and “The Sound.” Both come from Carly Rae Jepsen’s fourth album, Dedicated, which dropped Friday and was the topic of an argument I’d been having in my head for much of the weekend. I could recognize the album’s bouquet of charms and…

When the 22nd season of Arthur premiered on PBS last week and the world found out that beloved teacher of aardvarks, Mr. Ratburn, is not only gay, but engaged to be wed, people lost their shit. It was a moment of celebration, both because many realized Arthur is still on-air and because a same sex wedding on…

If there is one thing Celine Dion loves, it’s being Celine Dion. If there’s another, it’s shoes. If there’s a third, it’s probably singing, though if I found out she was sick of it—sick of pushing past 10 night after night after night during the climax of “My Heart Will Go On”—I would not hold it against her.…

What could Downton Abbey do for its upcoming movie that would be a suitable upscaling of the show to the big screen, and yet true to the original? The answer, in retrospect, is obvious: Host the King and Queen of the United Kingdom for a visit, of course!

Jason Mitchell, best known for his roles in Straight Outta Compton and Mudbound, has been dropped from the cast of The Chi and the upcoming Netflix film Desperados following allegations of misconduct.

The new thing in Hollywood is asking, telling, pleading with audiences and critics not to spoil plot twists. Except this is not a new thing; it’s the long shadow of that creep, Alfred Hitchcock.

Jex Blackmore is a Satanic activist and performance artist whose work— focusing on reproductive rights and the struggle for bodily autonomy against an increasingly draconian state system—couldn’t be more timely. She’s also, in a recently released documentary, a bit of an unexpected villain.

Megan Thee Stallion chose to use three images of herself for the cover of her debut album, Fever, released on Friday. This should tell you how much she values Number One. There she is in a cheetah-print two-piece, and in a candy-apple-red bikini, and seated in a chair with her mouth agape. There’s a horse and flames…

You loved Whitney Houston, so you’ll pay to watch a “performance” by a spectral rendering of her that weighs about as much as a melismatic run and will be backed by her original band, as well as a bunch of back-up singers including her half-brother Gary Houston (née Garland). Right???

Rihanna, who has established that she is quite ready to drain your bank account with her groundbreaking new fashion line, sat down with playwright Jeremy O. Harris for a great T Magazine Q&A about the new Fenty line, what the hell is up with her new album, and whether she’ll work with Drake again anytime soon (nope,…

Two seasons ago, after George RR Martin’s guidebooks stopped and David Benioff and D.B. Weiss were forced to attain sentience, Game of Thrones started hitting the shitter. This is the conventional wisdom, though after I rewatched Season 7 in a binge a few months ago, I was less dissatisfied than when it first aired:…

The people wanted more Hot Pie, and I for one was hoping that in the Game of Thrones series finale, we’d learn the fate of our favorite Westerosi baker, who, in his entirely too limited appearances throughout the show, charmed legions of fans with his pithy sayings and his delicious baked goods.
