The biggest risk would have been doing Iron Man 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8.” As such, the revived DC Studios under Guardians of the Galaxy franchise filmmaker James Gunn and Conjuring franchise producer Peter Safran has plans to do exactly that: Not to gavage moviegoers on a diet of Superman, Batman and Wonder Woman, but rather build secondary DC characters into diamond properties. A 2024 Anthony Fantano video, improbably enough, is back in the conversation this week. By now, your endless scroll has alerted you to the resurfacing of the music critic and The Needle Drop personality's review of Halsey's most recent studio album as of this writing, 2024's The Great Impersonator. While Fantano handed the album "a light to decent 1," it was otherwise met with largely favorable reviews. Seemingly, though for reasons that aren't entirely clear, the review in question has received renewed attention amid coverage of Fantano's recent interview with Olivia Rodrigo, whose excellent new album you seem pretty sad for a girl so in love is currently atop the Billboard 200 chart.

On Tuesday (June 23), X posts began circulating alleging the 59-year-old fan was “jumped” while awaiting the departure of Heated Rivalry star Connor Storrie from his hotel during Paris Fashion Week. The controversial figure was criticized for her seemingly parasocial and obsessive relationship with the young actor, frequently seeing his movies multiple times in theaters, attending premieres and sightings, and maintaining popular social media accounts dedicated to Chalamet, which occasionally included a vocal disdain for his relationship with Kylie Jenner. Cromer would go on to distance herself from the actor after his failed awards campaign for Marty Supreme, for which he left empty-handed from all the major ceremonies. In an Instagram post announcing the shocking move, she wrote, “Things have changed in this fandom in such a significant way that we also have to adjust to the changes and focus on other interests that simply bring us joy.” Learn more about your ad choices.

The superstar singer delivered the second of four performances in Los Angeles on The Eternal Sunshine Tour, and 90 minutes through the show Grande stopped to address the crowd, which responded to her comments with wild cheers and applause. “Thank you so much, oh my god. L.A., thank you so much. Are you kidding? What the hell? I’ve never in my life experienced a crowd like this,” Grande said as she got emotional and wiped away tears with a gloved hand while wearing custom Vivienne Westwood, Christian Louboutin boots and Swarovski jewelry. “This is so overwhelming in the most beautiful way ever. Thank you so much for being so loving. Holy moly. I said holy moly, but I meant it, you know.” Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Lizzo is putting a certain rumor to rest. On Saturday, May 23, the rapper and singer (whose real name is Melissa Jefferson) responded to a fan comment accusing her of "talking s---" about Taylor Swift. "The Life Of A Showgirl + MY FACE HURTS FROM SMILING — 4.005M," a user wrote on X the day prior, referring to Swift's latest album and Lizzo's 2025 mixtape, respectively. "ICEMAN + MAID OF HONOUR + HABIBTI — 683k." The post also featured a clip from her "STFU" music video. Lizzo, 38, reshared the post, asking users to clarify what the X user wrote: "Can someone explain what this means?" One user replied, saying, "It means all that s--- talking you did about Tay finally caught up to you." That's when Lizzo stepped in to defend herself. Learn more about your ad choices.
