Jan Shepard, who guest-starred on Rawhide, The Virginian, Gunsmoke and two dozen other TV Westerns and played opposite Elvis Presley in movies eight years apart, has died. She was 96.

Shepard died Jan. 17 at Providence St. Joseph Medical Center in Burbank of pneumonia brought on by respiratory failure, her son, Hollywood prop master, Brandon Boyle, told The Hollywood Reporter. “She was a good one and will be dearly missed,” he said.

Shepard portrayed Mimi, the sister of Presley’s Danny Fisher, in the Michael Curtiz-directed King Creole (1958) and the wife of Danny Kohana (James Shigeta), who partners with Presley’s Rick Richards in a helicopter business, in Paradise, Hawaiian Style (1966).

“The first time, I found him to be just the cutest kid around, a big teddy bear, a lot of fun,” she said in an interview for Boyd Magers and Michael G. Fitzgerald’s 1999 book, Westerns Women. But on their next movie,...

Bon Jovi have announced a vinyl reissue and deluxe expanded edition of their seminal 1986 album Slippery When Wet, arriving February 28th via Island/UMe.

Two vinyl pressings will be available, including a highly collectible liquid-filled disc limited to 1,300 copies worldwide ($99), as well as a picture disc limited to 1,500 copies ($39.98).

Meanwhile, a deluxe expanded 2-cd and digital edition includes the original album on Disc 1, plus a bonus disc featuring an acoustic version of “Wanted Dead or Alive,” remixes, and previously unreleased live recordings from the 1987 “Slippery When Wet Tour.”

Slippery When Wet stands as Bon Jovi’s most successful and best-selling album, having been certified 12-times platinum. The 10-song tracklist features three of the band’s staple tunes: “Livin’ on a Prayer,” “You Give Love a Bad Name,” and the...

Fans of Days of Our Lives were saddened by the recent death of Wayne Northrop, who played the heroic Roman Brady from 1981 to 1994. It’s very hard to replace a beloved character, but in 1998, Josh Taylor took over the part and made it his own. In his own right, Taylor became as much a fan favorite as Northrop and continues to bring his best performance in each episode. The actor recently revealed that he had to make some changes before he became the performer we all know and love.

He Had No Choice in the Matter

A video on the official Days Instagram page was posted with the caption, “We gave the cast a twist: they asked a mystery question, not knowing who would answer it!

Liz Feldman’s No Good Deed has suspense, emotion and humor all in one. The murder mystery series starring Lisa Kudrow, Ray Romano, Abbi Jacobson, Denis Leary, Poppy Liu. O-t Fagbenle, Teyonah Parris, Luke Wilson and Linda Cardellini arrived on Netflix Dec. 12.

Throughout the series, several songs emphasize moments or themes in the show, like that of home, which is punctuated by Ozzy Osbourne and Motley Crue songs. A Eurythmics number sets the tone at a big scene in the finale, and a Bon Jovi song also pulls at the sinister side of the story.

Several other original songs performed by different characters put some spin on the series, which follows the Morgans, Lydia (Kudrow) and Paul (Romano) as they attempt to sell their house to reasonable buyers so that they can move on from a tragic event that happened there a few years ago. Thus, three couples — Leslie (Jacobson...

Warning! Spoilers for Netflix's No Good Deed ahead!

Netflix's No Good Deed features a soundtrack that perfectly sets the tone for this dark comedy. The series follows a couple attempting to sell their home without dredging up too many dark secrets and comes from Dead to Me's Liz Feldman, with music by Siddhartha Khosla. Along with an original score, No Good Deed features a variety of popular rock, classical, and pop songs, many of which perfectly fit the theme of house and home. Then, to sweeten the pot even further, the Netflix series features a couple of original songs from artist Rachael Cantu.

It's quickly clear in Netflix's No Good Deed that the central couple, Paul and Lydia Morgan (Ray Romano and Lisa Kudrow), are hiding something. Of course, they aren't the only ones since each member of the three couples vying for their Los Angeles home keeps some secrets as well.

Hollywood’s ultimate daredevil and heartthrob, Tom Cruise is someone whose name screams stunts, actions, and box office gold. Whether he’s hanging off in planes in Mission: Impossible or hitting Mach 10 in Top Gun: Maverick, Cruise is the guy who can deliver big-screen adrenaline. But he’s got more than just heart-defying action scenes and billion-dollar franchises. Of course, we know him for his usual stunt game, but hidden in his filmography are some real gems that didn’t get the hype they deserved but honestly, they should have.

Zachariah Smith was successful when he appeared on American Idol. He was in Season 21 of the hit reality singing competition series. Smith finished in the Top 5 before his elimination. However, looking back at his time on the show, Zachariah wasn’t really happy about one aspect of the show. He felt Idol forces singers into “lanes.”

Here is what Zachariah said about his time on American Idol.

Zachariah Smith Blasts American Idol

Zachariah Smith was talking with some fans on Instagram, and the topic moved to whether he would appear on another singing competition series. It all started when a fan said Smith should try out for The Voice when the show has its next virtual open auditions. “Your voice would totally rock and bring the house down,” they said.

American Idol season 21 Top 5 finalist, Zachariah Smith has been busy since competing on the show in 2023. Zachariah has released the singles "American Grace," "Midnight in Mississippi," "Dream Again," and "Rainy Days." After American Idol, Zachariah performed in the Built 4 More Tour and made his Grand Ole Opry debut.

American Idol season 21 finalist Zachariah Smith has been busy since he competed in the reality singing competition series in 2023. Zachariah, a then 19-year-old from Amory, Mississippi, who worked as the grill cook at the famous restaurant, Bill's Hamburgers, auditioned for the show in Nashville, Tennessee. He impressed the judges--Lionel Richie, Katy Perry, and Luke Bryan--with his incredible vocals and showmanship at his audition, during which he sang "Hurts So Good" by John Mellencamp.

Throughout American Idol season 21, Zachariah continued to blow everyone away with his awesome performances. He brought his signature throwback style to songs such as "Lucille" by Little Richard,...

Tom Cruise and Jon Bon Jovi made uncredited, brief cameo appearances in the Young Guns franchise. Young Guns, followed by its sequel, played a crucial role in the revival of the Western genre in the 1990s. A third Young Guns film has been written and prepped, but its future is uncertain; if it happens, it should continue the tradition of hidden cameos.

On the surface, Tom Cruise and Jon Bon Jovi may not appear to have much in common, but they both share a unique Western trait in common. Without a doubt, the 1980s was the worst time for Westerns, thanks to the box-office failure of Heaven's Gate. This 1980 epic cost a staggering (for the time) $44 million to produce, and grossed less than a tenth of that back at the box office. In the aftermath, studios avoided Westerns like the plague, with Clint Eastwood's genre comeback Pale Rider being a rare exception.

Bon Jovi’s new album, Forever, has officially arrived, and with it the group’s collaboration with Jason Isbell, “Waves.”

The track is vintage Bon Jovi, with guitar riffs and hooks that soar to the rock & roll heavens. Isbell helped write the song, along with the band’s John Shanks, and provides backing vocals, joining Jon Bon Jovi to sing, “Waves/They take me down no one here gonna save me now/Waves/They knock me off my feet/Waves/Now I understand I see her face I see her...

Jon Bon Jovi married his high school sweetheart Dorothea in 1989, and they remain deeply in love. The couple has four children, including a son who is engaged to a Stranger Things actress. Bongiovi and his wife Dorothea have navigated personal and professional highs and lows together.

The Hulu docuseries Thank You, Goodnight: The Bon Jovi Story chronicles the decades-long journey of the rock band Bon Jovi, shining a spotlight on Jon Bongiovi (better known by his stage name Jon Bon Jovi), who has built an impressive career for himself and a large family. Bongiovi was born on March 2, 1962, in Perth Amboy, New Jersey, and raised in New Jersey. When he was 12 years old, Bongiovi formed his first band, and he founded a second called Atlantic City Expressway (which included future Bon Jovi member David Bryan) when he was 16.

Bongiovi went through many bands when he was in his teens, but...

In this day and age, singers and performers can make a quick buck on the side by selling their music catalog. Justin Bieber’s done it, Katy Perry’s done it, but Jon Bon Jovi won’t do it. And the answer all comes back to money.

Jon Bon Jovi – Says Their Music Catalog Has “Grown Exponentially” Through The Years

You won’t find Jon Bon Jovi in the lineup of the people who want to sell their music catalogs. Nope, keep the huge one-off payday, this star’s going to keep the rights to his music.

Bon Jovi has a mentor in former songwriting partner Richie Sambora, who sold his catalog in 2020 after exiting the band in 2013. This included his copyright to hits that he co-wrote with the frontman.

While Bon Jovi and Sambora may be chill, the former has no intentions to follow in the latter’s footsteps.

The Bon Jovi documentary on Hulu offers a refreshing break from Taylor Swift's Eras Tour hype. Bon Jovi's journey from the 80s to now is explored in Thank You, Goodnight, a four-episode docuseries. Despite their different stories, both the Eras Tour and Bon Jovi's anniversary concert showcase huge behind-the-scenes work.

For over a year, Taylor Swift's Eras Tour has taken over pop culture, and with its release as a movie in October 2023, it is very hard to avoid, but luckily Hulu has released its own concert documentary, Thank You, Goodnight: The Bon Jovi Story, which is a perfect replacement for those interested in music but sick of hearing about Swift. Thank You, Goodnight: The Bon Jovi Story is a four-episode docuseries currently streaming on Hulu, which follows iconic rock star Jon Bon Jovi as he reminisces about his band, Bon Jovi, and rehearses for a 40th anniversary concert.

Original members Jon, Tico, and David still rockin' with Bon Jovi after 40+ years. Phil X & Hugh also jammin' in the mix. Dave Sabo left Bon Jovi in '83, joined Skid Row and stayed buds with Jon. Alec John Such's bass playing journey with the band. Richie Sambora's family time led him to quit Bon Jovi in 201 Solo career launch, potential return talks with the band in 2023.

The new Hulu docuseries Thank You, Goodnight: The Bon Jovi Story reveals many of the behind the scenes details behind Bon Jovi's rise to fame. The four-part miniseries covers more than 5 hours of exclusive content, photos, and never-before seen footage, including modern interviews with John Bon Jovi, David Bryan, and Richie Sombora, who discusses why he quit Bon Jovi in 2013. Thank You, Goodnight was released in its entirety on April 26, 2024 and can only be streamed exclusively on Hulu. Gotham Chopra directed the project.

It’s hard to picture so many rock bands without the lead vocalist and guitarist pairings: Mick and Keith, Steven and Joe, Jon and Richie…But not all of these partnerships last. It has now been over a decade since Richie Sambora left Bon Jovi. And while he doesn’t regret the decision to leave the arena rockers after 30 years of hits and hairspray, he’s not entirely proud of how he did it.

Ahead of the second leg of their 2013 Because We Can Tour, Richie Sambora left Bon Jovi, undoubtedly the biggest change in membership for the band since forming in the early ‘80s. But with so much bad medicine in his mouth, he had no choice. As Richie Sambora revealed in Hulu’s docuseries Thank You, Goodnight: The Bon Jovi Story, “I don’t regret leaving the situation, but I regret how I did it…So I’d...

There wasn't a more capable director of massive, widescreen Westerns working in Hollywood during the 1950s and '60s than John Sturges. Whether classical ("Gunfight at the O.K. Corral") or somewhat unconventional ("Bad Day at Black Rock"), Sturges could frame a mountainous expanse or stage a gunfight with the best of them. He thrived when working with big casts and specialized in discovering stirring nuances in characters that would've been walking cliches in more typical genre flicks.

Sturges was also efficient, which came in handy when managing expensive studio productions populated with big egos. His biggest challenge in this department might've been "The Magnificent Seven," the 1960 remake of Akira Kurosawa's masterpiece "Seven Samurai." Yul Brynner, then a hugely popular movie star (largely on the strength of his Academy Award-winning performance in "The King and I" and his portrayal of Ramses in Cecil B. DeMille's "The Ten Commandments"), controlled...

Los Angeles, April 28 (Ians) ‘Livin’ on a Prayer’ could very well be one of the most loved songs but its creator, Jon Bon Jovi wasn’t impressed with the song initially.

The 62-year-old rock icon recently opened up about his four-decades-long career and recalled that he didn’t initially connect with the band’s chart-topping 1986 hit, reports ‘People’ magazine.

He told ‘People’, “It wasn’t that I didn’t want to record it, but I wasn’t all that impressed on the day that we wrote it.”

Upon writing the song, “it was the simple chord progression, the melodies and the lyrics” at first. “But the bass line came to life in the demo studio, when we took it back to the band and worked it up,” reflected the Grammy winner. “That’s how it became what it is”.

He further mentioned, “We knew what we wanted, we just didn’t have it,...

Jon Bon Jovi will discuss it all — Richie Sambora, his debilitating vocal cord injury, his legacy, and more — in a new hour-long interview special with Good Morning America co-anchor Michael Strahan.

Michael Strahan x Jon Bon Jovi: Halfway There is set to premiere this Sunday, April 28, at 10 p.m. Et on ABC before arriving on Hulu the following day, April 29. A new trailer for the special, which offers a glimpse at its scope, is premiering today exclusively on Rolling Stone.

“I feel a bunch of emotions,” Bon Jovi says at the start of the clip.

The four-part docuseries, Thank You, Goodnight: The Bon Jovi Story, goes deep on the big-hair, big-sound band famous for such anthemic hits as “Wanted Dead or Alive” and “Livin’ on a Prayer.” Frontman Jon Bon Jovi talks about the project — and the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame group’s four-decade career. On Showing Both Highs and Lows “One thing we agreed upon on day one was this was not going to be a puff piece. There are [honest] moments of other [band members’] truths in the film; I wasn’t going to ask for them to be cut out. And I think that makes the bonds deeper — being able to truly speak the truth without fear of repercussion or bruised egos.” ©2011 David Bergman for http://www.TourPhotographer.com On Maturing as a Songwriter “At 20, when I got a record deal, I didn’t have a lot else to write about other than high school,...

Robert Smigel’s Triumph the Insult Comic Dog somehow found a way to add another goofy layer to “Weird Al” Yankovic’s iconic shtick. Yankovic was one of Triumph’s guests at his recent “Let’s Make a Poop!” live shows at Sf Sketchfest (now available to watch in full online), and to honor the pop parody king, Triumph asked if he could perform some of his favorite Weird Al spoofs — only he delivered some hilariously dumb, half-baked ones Yankovic definitely never wrote (though there was something about them that...

The retelling of Bon Jovi’s legacy is wanted dead or alive.

The iconic New Jersey-based band is at the center of four-part Hulu docuseries “Thank You, Goodnight: The Bon Jovi Story.” Billed as an “all access” account of the band’s rise to fame, the docuseries spans 40 years of rock ‘n roll history culminating in frontman Jon Bon Jovi’s vocal injury that throws the band’s touring future into question.

“Thank You, Goodnight: The Bon Jovi Story” joins the band in February 2022 and follows their real time journey with its fits and starts as they attempt to chart out what’s next. The series uses personal videos, unreleased early demos, original lyrics, and never-before-seen photos to capture Bon Jovi’s journey from Jersey Shore Clubs to the biggest stages on the planet. The docuseries is directed and executive produced by Emmy winner Gotham Chopra.

Millie Bobby Brown and her fiancé, Jake Biongiovi, had a date night at the Damsel world premiere at The Plaza in New York City.

The couple was seen with Biongiovi’s proud parents, singer Jon Bon Jovi and Dorothea Hurley.

Brown was wearing a gray patterned gown while Biongiovi sported a classic suit and tie look. The iconic pop star went with a leather jacket. Hurley said yes to a black turtleneck and brown skirt.

The “Wanted Dead or Alive” singer recently defended his son’s engagement with the Stranger Things star from critics who say they are too young.

Bon Jovi discussed his thoughts on the engagement on Andy Cohen’s SiriusXM show.

“You know, if you find the right partner and you grow together, I think that would be my advice really, is growing together is wise,” he said.

You only had to look at Jason Isbell’s silhouette to realize what song he was about to perform at the MusiCares tribute to Jon Bon Jovi on Friday night in Los Angeles. Wearing a large-brimmed hat and a long duster coat and holding — the giveaway — a double-neck guitar, it was clear “Wanted Dead or Alive” was in the cards.

Isbell acknowledged as much on Instagram on Saturday: “I think it’s pretty obvious which Bon Jovi song I did just by looking at this picture,” he wrote.

Jon Bon Jovi was the man of the hour at the MusiCares Person of the Year Gala on Friday, where the rock star was celebrated by a tribute lineup that included Bruce Springsteen, Shania Twain, Melissa Etheridge, Jelly Roll, Damiano David and Sammy Hagar.

The Bon Jovi frontman was awarded the annual honor for his artistic achievement in the music industry and dedication to philanthropy. Proceeds from the gala support MusiCares, the leading music charity offering health and human services to music professionals.

The event — held in downtown Los Angeles right across the street from where Sunday’s Grammys will take place — began with an auction that included two Bon Jovi-related items: a volunteer day and dinner with the star at his Jbj Soul Kitchen restaurant in New Jersey and a tasting of his Hampton Water Rosé wine in East Hampton, with the musician and his son Jesse. After the auction,...

Jon Bon Jovi was honored as the MusiCares Person of the Year on Friday to kick off this year’s Grammy Weekend, joining other legendary artists including Joni Mitchell, Lionel Richie and Dolly Parton to have been honored at the glitzy annual dinner over the past 30 years.

Flanked between two previous Person of the Year Honorees Bruce Springsteen and Paul McCartney at his table for much of the evening (along with Patriots owner Robert Kraft, who introduced him before his speech), Bon Jovi finally accepted the honor at the end of the night.

Hulu is about to (willingly) take some bad medicine.

The streamer has acquired a four-part series about Bon Jovi. Titled Thank You, Goodnight: The Bon Jovi Story, the project comes from Gotham Chopra’s Religion of Sports banner and will chronicle the mega-selling arena rock band’s 40-year run of riding steel horses and giving love a bad name.

Thank You, Goodnight is also the first retrospective on Bon Jovi’s history that will feature participation from all present and past members of the band. It’s set to premiere April 26 on Hulu in the United States and later in the year on Star+ in Latin America and Disney+ in the rest of the world.

The announcement comes on the 40th anniversary of the release of Bon Jovi’s self-titled first album, which peaked at No. 43 on the Billboard 200 chart. Two years later, the band’s Slippery When Wet exploded,...

As Skidrow frontman Sebastian Bach sat down after a long day of metal rocking to enjoy some MTV, an energetic pretty boy suddenly appeared before the eyes of Bach. And all he could think was, “What the f*ck is a Bon Jovi and What the f*ck is with all those teeth?”, as smiling was not exactly considered cool amongst the metal-heads of the time. And we can’t forget Twister Sister frontman Dee Snider, who believes that he can pin point the exact moment that metal started to become less metal….when Bon Jovi smiled, creating what many like to call “happy metal”. While others say that Bon Jovi’s music brought a fresh new light to the genre causing millions of other smiles to spread throughout the world. Not being completely miserable and angry all the time was a bold controversial move in the world of rock...

Season 24 of “The Voice” ended Tuesday, December 20 with host Carson Daly announcing Huntley as the winner. The 33-year old gave coach Niall Horan his second victory, keeping him undefeated and making the “Slow Hands” singer just the third coach to win two seasons back-to-back (Blake Shelton won Seasons 2-5 and Kelly Clarkson‘s team took the top spot in Seasons 14 and 15). Watch our exclusive video interview with Huntley above.

“I know I’m 33 and Ruby is 16, but that girl can sing and she’s a super mega-talent,” Huntley says. “I did not once think that I was going to win this thing. As soon as my name got called I was definitely surprised. The father in me remembered Ruby was up there with me. I know what it’s like being that 16-year old kid with all that talent and it not going the way I want it to. I...

The morning after giving coach Niall Horan his second consecutive victory on The Voice, newly minted winner Huntley rang TVLine to discuss everything from his little girl’s big influence on the competition to the long and the short of being the show’s best-tressed contestant — even if some viewers doubt that his magnificent mane is all his. Here’s what the rocker had to say…

Tvline | Congratulations! Tell me about your night.

[Laughs] I don’t know if I can tell you that, but it was a great night. I definitely went out and celebrated.

Rock music had its turn in the spotlight on this season of NBC’s The Voice, thanks in large part to contestant Huntley. The Virginia blues-rocker, who goes by one name, was crowned the winner of Season 24 on Tuesday night (December 19th) after performing a number of rock songs throughout the competition, including Creed’s “Higher” in the finale.

The 33-year-old father of two sang “Higher” on Monday during night one of the two-part finale, lending his powerful and soulful rasp to the monster Creed hit. The 1999 song is having a moment in 2023, having also been used as a rallying cry for World Series champions the Texas Rangers.

On Tuesday night, Huntley was named The Voice champion, winning the national vote over runner-up Ruby Leigh, a 16-year-old country singer.

Huntley wowed the coaches throughout Season 24, beginning with a rousing rendition of The Black Crowes’ “She Talks to Angels” during the...

If “The Voice” had a Mount Rushmore of coaches, three of the faces carved into its granite would no doubt be Niall Horan, Blake Shelton and Kelly Clarkson. Why? Because as of the Season 24 finale on December 19, they are the only coaches to have won two seasons in a row. That’s quite an impressive feat, especially considering the immense amount of talent that has graced the NBC reality TV show since its debut in 2011. See the updated “The Voice” winners list.

Niall joined the esteemed list on Tuesday night when Huntley, his 33-year-old artist from Fredericksburg, Virginia, won Season 24 over runner-up Ruby Leigh of Team Reba McEntire. That gave Niall back-to-back victories because he also prevailed in Season 23 with Illinois pop singer Gina Miles, who bested runner-up Grace West of Team Blake. Since Niall isn’t returning in the spring for Season 25, that means he will remain undefeated for the time being.

Tuesday night on NBC, the remaining five contestants on “The Voice” Season 24 found out their fates in the live two-hour finale (read our minute-by-minute live blog). One by one, host Carson Daly revealed which artist came in fifth place, fourth place, third place and second place, and then named the ultimate winner. But did the right person win?

“The Voice” season 24 kicks into high gear on Tuesday, November 21 when the four teams led by veteran coaches John Legend and Gwen Stefani as well as reigning champion Niall Horan and first-timer Reba McEntire enter The Playoffs. After the blind auditions, battle rounds and three-way knockouts, the coaches have narrowed their teams down to five and will add a sixth who is yet-to-be-revealed as a wild card pick.

As of now, Team Niall consists of four four-chair turns: Huntley, Nini Iris and Alexa Wildish, all of whom he won over in the blinds, and Mara Justine, whom he stole from John in the knockouts; and Claudia B., a three-chair turn that he stole from John in the battles and then saved in the knockouts.

Supernatural's extensive use of music, spanning across multiple genres, adds depth and atmosphere to the show's various storylines and emotional moments. Iconic songs such as "Beautiful Loser" by Bob Seger and "Wanted Dead or Alive" by Bon Jovi perfectly complement specific scenes, enhancing their impact and adding a layer of meaning to the characters' experiences. The show's musical choices also serve to introduce and establish important characters, like the haunting song "O, Death" by Jen Titus which accompanies the introduction of the terrifying character Death, creating an atmosphere of tension and fear.

Supernatural had a 15-season run full of monsters, death, and family, but it also had a lot of good music to accompany the long-going show. Throughout the years, the series pulled from several genres from classic rock to the singer-songwriter genre. However, without fail, each song seamlessly fits into the situation within its use of following two brothers...

Jeff Tweedy never meant to be a memoirist. “I was kind of recruited to write a book based on some agent’s idea that I might be able to write something worth reading,” he says, recalling a conversation five or more years ago. “I said, ‘Sure, I guess.’ It felt accidental.” That somewhat inauspicious beginning led to Let’s Go (So We Can Get Back), the acclaimed memoir that Tweedy published in 2018. A couple of years later, he wrote a second bestseller, How to Write One Song, encouraging readers to tap into their own creativity.

The film world is still reeling from the recent loss of actor Rick Dalton, whose passing was first announced on May 19th, 2023 by The Video Archives Podcast's official Twitter account. Dalton, who passed away at his Honolulu, Hawaii home (shortly after celebrating his 90th birthday in April), is survived by his wife, one-time Italian starlet Francesca Cappucci.

The Video Archives Podcast, created and hosted by filmmakers Quentin Tarantino and Roger Avary, aired an episode on May 22nd that is apparently part one of a multi-episode run that revolves around the directors' memories of Dalton and his work.

While other friends and fans of the actor such as Leonardo DiCaprio and Brad Pitt have yet to make any official statements or remembrances, Tarantino has made sure that Dalton's name isn't fading into the ether like so many stars of yesteryear. The "Pulp Fiction" director made sure to include a tribute to...

American Idol Top 5 finalist, Zachariah Smith, was eliminated after his two extraordinary performances on Disney Night, but, after his exit, he teased some exciting upcoming events. Zachariah impressed the judges, Lionel Richie, Katy Perry, and Luke Bryan, with his showmanship at his audition, during which he sang "Hurts So Good" by John Mellencamp. His last two performances of "I Just Can't Wait to Be King" from The Lion King and "Life is a Highway" from Cars were thrilling, but he unfortunately didn't make the Top 3, along with Wé Ani. Iam Tongi, Colin Stough, and Megan Danielle will now compete for the American Idol crown on the May 21 finale.

In an Instagram post, Zachariah spoke to his fans, announcing some exciting future endeavors.He told them not to "skip out on the finale" because he was eliminated because he will appear on it.

The “American Idol” Top 10 performed for “The Judge’s Song Contest Night” on Monday, May 1. Immediately following the episode we polled fans and asked who gave the best performance. Wé Ani topped the list for the second night in a row with her passionate rendition of “I Have Nothing” by Whitney Houston. The song was chosen for her by Luke Bryan, but Katy Perry was the winner of the song contest, defeating Bryan and Lionel Richie. When Oliver Steele, Marybeth Byrd and Tyson Venegas landed in the bottom three, she used her winning powers to save Oliver.

Marybeth and Tyson were eliminated. But did American get it right? And who gave the best performances of the night? Watch Wé’s performance and see our full poll results below.

‘American Idol’ Top 10: Who gave the best performance?...

American Idol season 21 is heading into its final weeks of the competition, and the Top 8 has been determined. On Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Night, American Idol season 8 runner-up and current Queen frontman Adam Lambert mentored the contestants. Unfortunately, Nutsa and Lucy Love were sent home after they were saved by the judges, Lionel Richie, Katy Perry, and Luke Bryan, the week before. The American Idol season 21 Top 10 then performed during the Judges' Song Contest on the following night.

During the American Idol season 21 Judges' Song Contest, the judges chose a song for every contestant, who then picked one of them. After the performance was over, they had to guess who picked it. Since more contestants picked Katy's songs, she won the contest. She was able to save one contestant, Oliver Steele, to round out the Top 8. Sadly, Marybeth Byrd and Tyson Venegas went home. As the American Idol...

The 1990 song "Blaze of Glory" from the "Young Guns II" soundtrack is impossible to resist. I feel pretty confident in saying that, when you read the title of that song, it began playing in your head. In fact, you'll be singing it for the rest of the day, and if anyone else is around, they'll join in with the harmony. Maybe you, like a young version of me, watched the video repeatedly, admiring ... the music. I didn't mean the exceedingly good-looking Jon Bon Jovi himself. Okay, that's a lie, but the song really is pretty great. There is a reason it's performed at every karaoke bar, including the fictional one in the afterlife in "The Good Place." 

What you might not have realized about the song you cannot stop singing now that I've mentioned it, is that it was written over dinner with two stars of the 1990 sequel to 1988's "Young Guns.

Chicago – Cult character actor Rutger Hauer passed away late last month, but the mark he made with his array of performances carried through two generation of admirers, even receiving the honor of Best Dutch Actor of the (20th) Century in 1999. He died on July 19th, 2019, in his native Netherlands. He was 75.

He was born in Breukelen, the Netherlands, to actor parents. After a couple stints in the military, he graduated from the Academy for Theater and Dance in Amsterdam in 1967, and made his TV debut two years later when director Paul Verhoeven cast him in the Dutch medieval action drama “Floris.” His film debut came in 1973 with “Turkish Delight,” and he performed mostly in Dutch films during the 1970s, including work with Verhoeven again on “Solider of Orange” (1977) and “Spetters” (1980).

Although Hauer made one international English language film previously, his American debut came in 1981 with “Nighthawks.” His was unforgettable one...

They've seen a million faces, and they've rocked them all...and now it's official: Bon Jovi will finally be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. The famed rock band, who rose to fame in the '80s and is led by Jon Bon Jovi, joins Dire Straits, the Moody Blues, the Cars and the late Nina Simone in the class of 2018. In addition, the late Sister Rosetta Tharpe will be honored with an Early Influence award.  The news was announced on Wednesday. "Hey everybody, just wanted to say hi, wish you all a happy holiday and, oh yeah, by the way, thank you," Jon said in a video message posted on Instagram, as Bon Jovi's 1986 hit "Wanted Dead or Alive" is played...

Tuesday’s episode of The Voice left Season 13’s Knockouts in the rearview mirror and me feeling reflective — mainly about how easy it was to pick the standouts from this eh-ok crop of contestants. My once-high expectations for Anthony Alexander have been lowered. After Monday’s “Behind These Hazel Eyes,” I still think of Moriah Formica as rock but not rock-solid. Ashland Craft’s “Wanted Dead or Alive” should have left her singing “Take Me Home, Country Roads.” And as far as I can tell, Jon Mero simply cannot cut the cheese out of his performances. That leaves, Imho, five real contenders: Chris Weaver,...

Had Monday’s start of The Voice’s Season 13 Knockouts been Kelly Clarkson’s Blind Audition to be a coach on the show, would you have turned your chair for her? The Grammy-winning American Idol champ certainly appeared to be into it. And her advice seemed on point. (For instance, she suggested that Shi’Ann Jones maybe shouldn’t spend an entire song doing runs, encouraged Janice Freeman not to just copy Mary J. Blige, and brought a hell of a howl out of Dennis Drummond.) But I dunno — she didn’t feel like an obvious slam-dunk the way that...
