Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson is once again at the center of a cultural conversation, this time over what he calls “real masculinity,” a definition that is already raising eyebrows among fans who feel Hollywood continues to move further away from traditional male...
Jimmy Kimmel has long been one of the most partisan voices on late-night television, but his recent comments about the assassination of Charlie Kirk crossed from mockery into outright misinformation. On his ABC show, Kimmel smeared conservatives and President Trump by wrongly claiming Kirk’s alleged killer was a Trump supporter. The reality? Evidence has revealed the suspect was radicalized by supposed “anti-fascist” rhetoric — the very opposite of the narrative Kimmel peddled to his shrinking audience.
Walt Disney World has rolled out a surprising new deal for Florida residents that makes a day at Disney actually cheaper than Dollywood. The limited-time offer slashes daily ticket costs to just $70 per day—a number that not only undercuts Disney’s usual steep pricing but also places it below Dollywood’s standard one-day admission.

But fans immediately noticed something unusual: while the Ghost of Yotei trailer has been posted to YouTube and Bluesky, it has not been shared on X, one of the largest gaming discussion hubs on the internet.
When Bob Iger returned as Disney CEO, he suggested the company would step back from divisive politics and “quiet the noise” surrounding its involvement in culture wars. Yet Disney’s latest hiring move makes it clear the corporation is not backing away from its controversial diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) programs. In fact, it’s doubling down — with a position that pays nearly a quarter of a million dollars per year.
One of the things that’s quite remarkable (to some—not to me) about the thousands and thousands who are spouting vile and evil things about the murder of Charlie Kirk is this: A whole lot of them are either K-12 teachers or hospital RN’s. Yes, there are regular retail folks from print shops to malt shops, pols from local govt. to federal agencies and just about all demographics of occupation, location, and persuasion included, but the big shock to so many is just how many are people who teach our kids or secure our health.
Upon receiving his award at the Emmys, Colbert was quoted stating, “Sometimes you only truly know how much you love something when you get a sense that you might be losing it. Ten years later, in September of 2025, my friends, I have never loved my country more desperately. God bless America.

In the days following the tragic assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk, Hollywood figures and entertainment insiders continue to reveal where they stand on one of the most disturbing political killings in modern American history.

Only at Walt Disney World could something this outrageous happen—a robbery straight out of a Hollywood heist film. In the early hours of Monday morning, a thief in scuba gear allegedly robbed Paddlefish at Disney Springs and then swam away and escaped.

Cracker Barrel posted a video today that showed workers tearing down new “modern” signage to put the classic Uncle Herschel sign back in its place. But the audience is letting Cracker Barrel and its CEO know that this problem never should’ve happened in the first place.
When it comes to self-importance, Hollywood never disappoints. Sunday night’s Emmy Awards tried something different: host Nate Bargatze set up a clever gimmick where Hollywood celebrity winners could either help raise money for kids in need or — if they couldn’t keep their mouths shut — siphon funds away. And guess what happened? Hollywood Emmy speeches proved exactly why so many people can’t stand award shows anymore.
