Thank you for the love that you gave to the show and all the creators.” Amber Noizumi and Michael Green, co-creators of Blue Eye Samurai, and executive producer Jane Wu all appeared via pre-taped interviews, previewing the return of the Emmy-winning series.

If you are attending the Friday opening night of the 59th edition of the Karlovy Vary International Film Festival, get ready for stars, fireworks and “Tropical Chancer,” “I’m Not Your Toy” and “Bulletproof” courtesy of La Roux. The festival, kicking off the European summer holiday season, has a track record of free opening night concerts that get the Czech spa town grooving. Two years ago, Russell Crowe rocked the crowd, and electronic band Morcheeba got folks moving. Last year, Kosheen was in the house – well, actually in the square outside the Hotel Thermal. This year, another big British name is ready to bring the party to Karlovy Vary, which runs through July 12: Grammy-winning synthpop act La Roux. And is tradition, the fireworks on stage will be followed by a fireworks display. La Roux’s self-titled debut album in 2009 was a critical and commercial success and won numerous awards. It produced such hits as the ones mentioned above. It was the creation of singer Elly Jackson, known for reddish hair that also inspired the band name, and record producer Ben Langmaid, who later left the duo. Jackson followed up the debut album with 2014’s Trouble in Paradise, followed by 2020’s

McHenry Visiting Professor in Diplomacy and International Relations, has published an article in the “Reflections” section of the July/August edition of Foreign Service Journal. Duguid was a U.S. Foreign Service officer from 1990-2020.

Sixty seconds is all you have… sixty seconds to defend yourself and your bunker from what used to be people. This is what awaits players in Piotr Bunkowski’s first-person shooter, One Rotten Oath . In  One Rotten Oath , players take on the role of a mysterious survivor who is also a programmer, trying to live as normally as possible in a bunker during an apocalypse. A leak at a nearby chemical lap has exposed people to the mysterious chemical into monsters. Unfortunately, the only generator in the bunker randomly malfunctions, forcing players to defend the bunker from waves of monsters who progressively get stronger each level. Using the GDevelop Engine, along with a camera and green screen, One Rotten Oath is brought to life in old-school FPS action that calls back to the late 80s and early 90s DOS games. Players can now try the game out for themselves as the Demo is now available, with the game’s full release sometime this year.

In this week's Legal Beat newsletter, Snoop settles with a session musician, Diddy nears the end of his sex trafficking trial, Jay-Z loses a key round in his extortion lawsuit and much more. Snoop Dogg at the TIME100 Gala held at Jazz at Lincoln Center on April 24, 2025 in New York, New York. Adela Loconte THE BIG STORY: Snoop Dogg reached a confidential settlement with Trevor Lawrence Jr., a veteran studio musician who has been credited on songs by Bruno Mars, Alicia Keys, Ed Sheeran, Kendrick Lamar and other top artists. Snoop and Lawrence were locked in litigation for close to a year over two backing tracks on the 2022 album BODR. Lawrence claimed Snoop did not properly license his backing tracks before using them on the BODR songs “Pop Pop” and “Get This D–k,” and that the legendary rapper made matters worse by also releasing both songs as NFTs (non-fungible tokens) without his permission. Snoop, meanwhile, said he had a deal with Lawrence and paid the producer $20,000 before releasing BODR. The rapper’s lawyers criticized Lawrence in court papers for seeking a “preposterous windfall” of millions of dollars through the litigation. Trending on Billboard Snoop and Lawrence’s settlement

Logo text Iain Stirling, the voice behind Love Island USA, swears all his jokes on the hit Peacock reality series come “from a place of love.” The comedian has been narrating the U.K. version of Love Island for 10 years, and the U.S. version since season four. And while he enjoys getting to see the episodes before the world does and writing jokes for them, it doesn’t come without its challenges. “I’m sort of glad I live in the U.K. because I wouldn’t have the willpower to not tell loads of people what’s going down on Love Island today. I’m so bad,” Stirling, who returns to America in October for his new stand-up show Iain Stirling Live, tells The Hollywood Reporter with a laugh. Below, Stirling talks about the reality hit’s buzzy season seven, hosted by Ariana Madix, including his Jeremiah waiter joke that received a “visceral reaction” from fans, his process of writing the scripts and jokes for each episode, and relating to the “Islanders that are slightly ostracized from the group.” *** When it comes to writing the script and jokes for each episode, do you get excited that you know what happens before America does?

After pushing the TikTok sale date back yet again, President Donald Trump said in an interview on Sunday that he had found a potential buyer for the ByteDance-owned platform. Though the president said he will not reveal the identities of the buyers for another couple weeks, Bloomberg is reporting that the buyer is a group of investors from Oracle, Blackstone, and VC firm Andreessen Horowitz (a16z). According to the report, these investors had made a bid, but it lost momentum amid tensions between the U.S. and China due to Trump’s tariff proposals. Oracle has long been engaged with TikTok as part of its Project Texas initiative to make sure that U.S. user data is stored in the States.
