...It all began so modestly—a musical group dreamed up by four ambitious young men on a university campus. That band, Coldplay, quickly emerged not just as chart toppers, but performers who were destined to go down in rock history. The band has grown with each album, darting into different sonic corners—like their heroes U2 and R.E.M.—to produce music that is essentially a self-contained genre all its own. They’re the only rock band introduced

For the first decade of the rock 'n' roll era, Elvis was unrivaled in fame, fortune, and importance. He was a sensation with virtually no precedent, but following a stint in the Army just when he was peaking, the focus of his career shifted from making dangerous music to mass-producing safe movies. Then came the TV event that we now know as the “’68 Comeback Special.” It was originally supposed to be an hour-long ode to Christmas.
...Since the premiere of Star Wars: A New Hope (Episode IV) in 1977, our world has been made richer by the adventures of rebels long, long ago in a galaxy far, far away. Creator George Lucas turned his modest sci-fi film into a sprawling media empire, one glowing with a constellation of movie prequels, sequels and spinoffs, and now acclaimed animated and live-action television series. From Star Wars: The Clone Wars to 2023’s Ahsoka, The Unofficial
...The man who would come to be known across the world as John Wayne was not born to be a superstar. He was born Marion Robert Morrison in a small wooden house in the state of Iowa. In his early years he rode a horse to school and swam with his younger brother in a nearby ditch. He was a promising athlete and began a degree in law, but both pursuits would end in frustration. So how did he climb the slippery rungs of the Hollywood ladder to become
...Of the dozens of movies that have tried to capture the high school experience of students on the outside looking in, none did it with quite the humor, relatability and moxie — and the pitch-perfect depiction of the Queen Bee battles among teenage girls — as 2004’s Mean Girls. With six years of writing for Saturday Night Live under her belt, SNL cast memberTina Fey was already making waves in the comedy world when she produced a script brimming
...Director Denis Villeneuve told Total Film that Timothee Chalamet was the first person he texted when Dune: Part Two was greenlighted. "I spent almost a year with Timothee where he was saying to me, 'Can I put a little bit of the Muad'Dib here?' I said, 'No, Timothee. You're not the Muad'Dib yet, '" he said. "so I just wrote him a text message saying, 'Muad'Dib time.'"
Although she is considered the Queen of Country, Reba McEntire is many things beyond that. The aw-shucks, down-to-earth charmer from Oklahoma — who just happens to have 25 No. 1 singles and a place in the Country Hall of Fame — currently coaches aspiring singers on The Voice to spread her love of music to a new generation. She also created her own self-titled sitcom, which lasted for six seasons, and was a Kennedy Center Honors recipient. A
...It’s not every day that a pop group, let alone a K-pop group, dominates the global music conversation and the charts. But then again, BTS isn’t your average band. The septet set themselves apart from the outset, starting from their Big Hit Entertainment-backed debut album, 2013’s 2 Cool 4 Skool, to their 2022 anthology LP, Proof: They weren’t afraid to speak out on the younger generation’s struggles, tackle political issues, examine their

Of all the bands that emerged out of New York’s burgeoning music scene in the 1970s, none capture the anything-goes ethos quite as well as Blondie. Led by the stylish, magnetic and effortlessly cool Debbie Harry — and featuring the driving core of guitarist Chris Stein and drummer Clem Burke — Blondie fused cabaret, rock, hip-hop and world music into their sound and managed to make it edgy and popular at the same time. From creative covers
...Pedro Pascal is everywhere. Even people who have never seen one of his wildly popular shows, The Last of Us and The Mandalorian, are smitten with him and, honestly, it's justifiable. When Latinas Poderosas asked artificial intelligence why the three-time Emmy nominee is so lovable, the computer system noted that he is a talented actor and philanthropist with a wonderful sense of humor, great style and a big heart for his fans. Indeed, humans
...Olivia Rodrigo may be young, but she's already a global pop superstar. Her emotional ballads and edgy bangers have proven to be anthems for people of all ages who can relate to the agony of a bad breakup ("Drivers License"), or the sting of seeing your ex with a new love ("Jealousy, Jealousy"), or feeling incredibly hurt as a result of someone’s unexpected betrayal ("Vampire"). It’s that authenticity that allows
