Happy New Music Friday! The weekend is here, which means more streaming, new playlists and the best that music has to offer — and ET has you covered for everything in between.

Coachella kicks off today with headliners Sabrina Carpenter, Justin Bieber, Karol G, and Anyma. Fans can tune in via Coachella’s YouTube Channel to see seven stages featuring a lineup that includes Addison Rae, BIGBANG, BINI, Clipse, David Guetta, FKA twigs, Jack White, Kaskade, KATSEYE, Major Lazer, Laufey, The Strokes, Teddy Swims and more. The livestream will begin at 4pm PT each night.

CBS and Dick Clark Productions announced that Queen Latifah will host the 52nd American Music Awards on May 25. This will mark 30 years since her AMAs hosting debut when she was a co-host in 1995. She shared, “I am so excited to return to the American Music Awards stage to host this year. It’s been an incredible year for music and there is no better place to celebrate than in Vegas.”

Women lead nominations for the 61st Academy of Country Music Awards. Megan Moroney leads with 9 nominations, followed by Miranda Lambert with 8, Ella Langley with 7, Lainey Wilson with 7, Chris Stapleton with 6, Zach Top with 5 and Cody Johnson with 4. More performers have also been announced — Kacey Musgraves, Little Big Town and Miranda Lambert will join previously announced performers Cody Johnson, Lainey Wilson and Riley Green. The awards will stream live on May 17 on Prime Video.

The Latin Recording Academy announced that Daddy Yankee will be the 2026 Latin Recording Academy Person of the Year. He will be honored for his nearly three-decade career as a singer, songwriter and performer within the urban genre, as well as for his humanitarian efforts. Daddy Yankee shared, “This recognition from The Latin Recording Academy is a dream come true. It means a lot because it represents more than just a successful career; it’s recognition of years of discipline, struggle, faith and commitment to our culture.” He will be celebrated at a private gala on November 11 in Las Vegas, as part of Latin GRAMMY Week.

Lady Gaga and Doechii released their new song “Runway,” the first piece of music from The Devil Wears Prada 2. The song was written by Bruno Mars, Jaylah Hickmon, Lady Gaga, Andrew Watt, Henry Walter, Dernst “D’Mile” Emile II and Jayda Love, and produced by Bruno Mars, Andrew Watt, Cirkut and D’Mile. The song marks the first collaboration between Gaga and Doechii.

Hilary Duff has released “Come Clean (Mine),” a re-recorded version of her 2003 hit single. The track will be featured in “The Reunion: Laguna Beach” which premieres April 10 on The Roku Channel. The song will also be included on Hilary Duff – (Mine), a brand new collection of newly re-recorded renditions of Hilary’s great hits, out on April 18 exclusively for Record Store Day 2026.

16 year old country singer Maddox Batson is currently on his Live Worldwide Tour 2026 and made a stop at The Wiltern in Los Angeles this week, which was his 100th show.

Simone Ashley has released her debut EP, Songs I Wrote In New York. Best known for her starring roles in “Bridgerton” and “Sex Education” and upcoming films “The Devil Wears Prada 2” and “Peaked,” Ashley reconnects with her early foundations in music. Before acting, music and performing were her earliest forms of creative expression. Simone shared, “I’ve found a confidence in knowing what kind of women and artist I want to be – that feeling really kept me company whilst in the studio writing and recording these songs.”

Bruno Mars was honored today with a parade down the Las Vegas Strip to celebrate the launch of his new tour, The Romantic Tour. Park Avenue was officially renamed Bruno Mars Drive, which is a rare and distinguished honor reserved for only a select few whose influence has changed the Entertainment Capital of the World. Bruno was also honored with a special proclamation from Clark County Commissioner Jim Gibson and and ceremonial state flag from Nevada Governor Joe Lombardo, acknowledging Bruno’s significant cultural and entertainment contributions. Bruno also made a charitable donation to a local nonprofit.

'Steal This Story, Please' Review: Amy Goodman Documentary

‘Steal This Story, Please’ Review: Amy Goodman Documentary

by jummy84
written by jummy84

“Democracy Now!” is not a program you seek out when you’re on the fence about the issues. The daily nonprofit radio show, now entering its four decade on both the real and digital airwaves, is as unapologetically progressive as they come. Host and producer Amy Goodman and her team of reporters clearly subscribe to a worldview that the world is divided into a battle between oppressors and those they oppress, and their aggressive lines of questioning are catnip for an audience that believes the mainstream media is too centrist. It’s less a place for arguments and debates than a team headquarters that tirelessly tries to advance a cause.

Fatih Akin, Diane Kruger at the “Amrum” Photocall during The 78th Cannes Film Festival at Palais des Festivals on May 16, 2025 in Cannes, France.

It’s unsurprising, then, that the new documentary about Goodman plays like more of a greatest hits compilation than a serious attempt at capturing the essence of a person. Carl Deal and Tia Lessin’s “Steal This Story, Please!” recaps Goodman’s entire career, from her famous interview with then-President Bill Clinton in which she criticized him for passing NAFTA and “shifting the Democratic Party to the right” to her subsequent protests of the Bush and Trump administrations and her unwavering support of Palestine since October 7th.

Much like “Democracy Now!,” which does not accept advertisers and survives on donations from foundations and individual viewers, “Steal This Story, Please!” is a grassroots effort. The filmmakers are self-distributing the film this spring following a festival run that began at Telluride, and the audience will be overwhelmingly comprised of Goodman’s politically engaged fans. The film’s content suggests that Deal and Lessin are primarily focused on rallying the true believers to get even more involved, not converting anyone to Goodman’s worldview.

Given those parameters, it’s hard to imagine the film not succeeding at its goals. “Steal This Story, Please!” is a profile in courage, presenting Goodman as an unrelenting voice of the voiceless who is never afraid to get arrested or make an enemy in her pursuit of telling her truth. Her career is filled with the kinds of on-the-ground adventures that should inspire plenty of wide-eyed journalism students who haven’t yet realized how much of the job is just staring at laptop screens. Anyone looking for permission to protest, organize, and get their hands dirty for the things they believe in will likely leave the screenings feeling invigorated.

But the components that make “Steal This Story, Please!” a useful activism tool also turn it into an underwhelming piece of art. The film is only interested in portraying Goodman as an unambiguous hero, robbing us of the chance to explore the nuances of a complicated person who has participated in decades of history. There’s not much room to explore how Goodman has evolved, if she ever got something wrong, or express any critical thought about how her bomb-throwing approach fits into the media ecosystem.

There’s no denying that we’re living through dark times, and saying that a journalist subscribes to a simple Good vs. Evil worldview is less damning of an accusation than it would have been 15 years ago. But given how ideologically motivated Goodman is, her story could have been better told by a filmmaker with less interest in adding their thumb to the scale. A less fawning portrait of Goodman could have still reached the same progressive conclusions while giving us a better understanding of what makes her tick and why she continues to survive in a media landscape that never stops evolving. Instead, we’re left to try and fill in those gaps ourselves.

But “Steal This Story, Please!” is the kind of film that has no problem sacrificing artistic merit if it means inspiring a few more people to get out and protest. It’s not a coincidence that Deal and Lessin are rolling it out in the months leading up to a crucial set of midterm elections in America, and the only fair way to grade such a mission-based film is to see how much it helps accomplish its goals. On that front, we’ll all have to nervously wait a few months before we can deliver a proper verdict.

Grade: C+

“Steal This Story, Please” opens at IFC Center in New York on Friday, April 10 and in Los Angeles on April 17, with a national expansion to follow.

Hulu Passes on La LA Anthony, Kim Kardashian Pilot 'Group Chat'

Hulu Passes on La LA Anthony, Kim Kardashian Pilot ‘Group Chat’

by jummy84
written by jummy84

Hulu has opted not to pick up the comedy pilot “Group Chat,” Variety has learned. The show was inspired by La La Anthony’s book “The Love Playbook: Rules for Love, Sex, and Happiness” and hailed from writer Kenya Barris and executive producer Kim Kardashian.

The project was first announced as being in development back in 2024 under Kardashian’s first-look deal with 20th Television. Anthony starred in the pilot in addition to executive producing, while Kardashian was set to guest star and serve as narrator on the series. The cast also included Yaya DaCosta, Melanie Liburd, Rebecca Rittenhouse, and Stephanie Suganami.

But Anthony and Kardashian are staying in business together. Both are attached as executive producers on an untitled Tracy Oliver comedy series currently in development at Hulu. Oliver is also an executive producer on the project in addition to writing. 20th Television is the studio.

The logline for the new project states, “When the Bay Area’s most sought-after crisis manager for professional athletes finds her own life upended by her husband’s scandal, she turns to the three women who’ve been by her side through every version of her life. Together they navigate dating, ambition, motherhood, and the glamorous mess of starting over.”

Oliver is perhaps best known for writing the hit 2017 comedy feature “Girls Trip,” which grossed over $140 million worldwide. She went on to write films like “The Blackening,” “The Sun Is Also a Star,” and “Little.” On the TV side, she is known for developing “The First Wives Club” TV series at BET+ and for creating the Amazon Prime Video series “Harlem,” which ran for three seasons.

OIiver is repped by CAA, Artists First, and Myman Greenspan. Kardashian is repped by WME. Anthony is repped by Linden Entertainment, WME, and Sloane Offer.

Shushu/Tong Shanghai Fall 2026 Collection

Shushu/Tong Shanghai Fall 2026 Collection

by jummy84
written by jummy84

Liushu Lei and Yutong Jiang had the vibiest show of Shanghai Fashion Week this season thanks in large part to the thrilled sorority of Shushu/Tong girls that flocked to the Labelhood venue to see it. The core appeal of the brand seemed to be epitomized in Lei’s explanation as to why they’d called this collection The Invented Self: “She’s the kind of girl who has her own character outside of the family.”

Lei and Jiang’s collection was specifically inspired by Violette Nozière, the 1978 Claude Chabrol true-crime art house movie starring Isabelle Huppert as a 1930s teenager forced into a fatal revolt against her overbearing and abusive family. The designers took a panoply of 1930s and 1940s shapes and then applied a hyper-stylized and ultra-feminine filter that was most often expressed through the ceremonially crooked right elbow from, which in almost every look, a house handbag was hung.

Shrunken opaque cardigans, plaid pencil skirts, stirruped knee socks, ruffle edged gowns in crushed velvet that draped off the body like theater curtains framing a stage, peter pan collared swing coats, and cutely cut shift dresses were amongst the many ladylike brushstrokes with which Lei and Jang constructed the image of their heroine. As so often here in Shanghai this week, there were drop-waisted dresses and skirts as well as bows aplenty.

Although the audience was absolute proof of the appeal of these borderline costume full-look ensembles (the collection was designed to enable personal reinvention, after all), it was the outfits less reliant on both period and drama that seemed most potentially individual. Look 17’s ruffle-seamed track-skirt-suit in washed lemon nylon and the excellent quarter-zip, drop waisted, pleat skirted dresses in a deeply colored dense cotton mix in looks 2 and 29 were the highlights of this category. That track top, with shorts this time, was also shown in baby blue on a male model: it was one of several looks in which Lei and Jiang’s womenswear was given a pretty persuasive test drive on men.

Hannah Einbinder Slams AI Creators As “Losers”

by jummy84
written by jummy84

With the fifth and final season of Hacks taking on Hollywood once again, Hannah Einbinder has some thoughts about the role artificial intelligence plays in the industry.

The 4x Golden Globe nominee recently slammed generative AI creators as “losers” who are “trying to rob real creatives” as she tore into the tech trend that continues to divide Hollywood during a press conference for the HBO Max show.

“The people who make this stuff are losers,” she declared, according to SlashFilm. “They’re not artists. They’re not creative. And they’ve wanted their whole lives to be special. And they’re not special.”

Einbinder added, “They’re trying to rob real creative people of our gifts. And you can’t. And even if you try, you will never be cool. You guys suck. No one likes you. Anyone who’s near you is because they crave power and access over any ethical standard. You are a loser. You will never be cool. And you probably had a rolly backpack in high school. I wanna put your head in the toilet and flush.”

Jen Statsky, who co-created the series with Paul W. Downs and Lucia Aniello, agreed that in attempting to make the creative process “easier” with AI, creatives will suffer while execs continue to profit.

Jean Smart as Deborah Vance and Hannah Einbinder as Ava Daniels in ‘Hacks’ Season 5.

WBD/ HBO Max

“I wish that I believed that it was in better hands, but I don’t,” said Statsky. “And until there’s guardrails put on, until there is some stoppage mechanism to make sure that we are protecting the humanity both in art and people’s livelihoods, it ain’t good.”

Season 5 of Hacks premieres April 9 on HBO Max, reuniting Einbinder’s Ava Daniels with comedy icon Deborah Vance (Jean Smart), who plans to sell out Madison Square Garden with her first stand-up show after being legally barred from performing over breaking her late-night contract.

Vegan, gluten-free, refined sugar-free tiramisu recipe with simple ingredients: Watch how to make this delicious dessert

by jummy84
written by jummy84

For those with a persistent sweet tooth who refuse to compromise their fitness goals, the search for a ‘clean’ dessert often ends in disappointment. However, model, actor and content creator Vandana Pandit Nidadavolu may have just found the holy grail of healthy indulgence. Also read | Kala chana protein brownies recipe that’s ‘healthy and seriously delicious with each serving packing in 24 g of protein’

Vandana Pandit Nidadavolu presents a healthy tiramisu recipe using ragi flour and bananas for the base, replacing heavy cream with a cashew blend. (Freepik)

In an Instagram video shared on March 14, Vandana unveiled her recipe for a ‘vegan, gluten-free, refined sugar-free tiramisu made with simple ingredients’. The recipe aims to provide a nutrient-dense alternative to the classic Italian dessert without the heavy mascarpone or processed sugars.

The ‘healthier’ biscuit base

Unlike traditional ladyfingers made with refined flour and eggs, Vandana’s version uses ragi flour, a gluten-free millet known for its high calcium and fibre content.

“Mash the banana well,” Vandana instructs, serving as the natural sweetener for the base – add ragi flour and baking powder and mix. Add water gradually until a smooth batter forms. To achieve the classic tiramisu structure, she advises people to ‘pipe or spread the batter onto a lined baking tray in finger shapes’. The biscuits are then baked at 180°C for 15 minutes until set.

The heart of a tiramisu is its cream. To keep it vegan and refined-sugar-free, Vandana swaps heavy cream for a cashew blend with natural sweeteners. The assembly follows the traditional method but with a mindful twist. To ensure the ragi biscuits maintain the right texture, she suggests a quick soak. For the best results, she recommends a final chill, advising dessert lovers to ‘refrigerate for at least 60 minutes before serving’.

Why this recipe can work for you

This recipe addresses three major concerns for healthy eaters: refined sugar, gut health, and satiety. It uses bananas and honey/maple syrup to reduce its glycemic impact, incorporates ragi, which is easier on the digestive system for those with gluten sensitivities, and the healthy fats from the cashews mean you’ll feel satisfied with a smaller portion compared to traditional, sugar-heavy desserts. Whether you are a seasoned vegan or just someone trying to ‘eat clean’ while enjoying the finer things in life, this simple take on a classic is a must-try.

Here is Vandana’s step-by-step recipe for ‘vegan, gluten-free, refined sugar-free tiramisu’:

Ingredients and instructions for biscuits

• 1 ripe banana

• ½ cup ragi flour

• ¼ tsp baking powder

• Water (to adjust consistency)

Mash the banana well. Add ragi flour and baking powder and mix. Add water gradually to form a smooth batter (like shown in the reel). Pipe or spread the batter onto a lined baking tray in finger shapes (as shown in the video). Bake at 180°C for 15 minutes. Let them cool.

Ingredients and instructions for cashew cream

• ½ cup cashews (soaked in hot water for 20 minutes)

• 3 tbsp honey or maple syrup

• ½ tbsp lemon juice

• ½ tsp vanilla essence

• A pinch of salt

Blend everything until smooth and creamy. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.

Assembly

• ½ cup espresso or strong instant coffee

• Cocoa powder for dusting

Dip the biscuits lightly in coffee. Layer biscuits and cashew cream in a bowl. Repeat the layers and finish with a dusting of cocoa powder on top.

Refrigerate for at least 60 minutes before serving

Children’s Show Evil Puppets Horror Film ‘The Fuzzies’ Official Trailer

by Alex Billington
April 2, 2026
Source: YouTube

“I’m gonna kill that felt fuzzy!” Terror Films has revealed an official trailer for a new horror comedy called The Fuzzies, about evil children’s show puppets come to life. This low budget indie creation is a feature version of filmmaker Josh Funk’s original short film from 2020 also called The Fuzzies. And it features some very cool stop-motion work and puppetry. Childhood friends reunite at the eerie and spooky estate of their famous friend to mourn her passing. They experience what nightmares are made of – as grotesque puppets come alive and sinister stop-motion creatures make them fight for their lives. Starring Rocío de la Grana, Baylee Toney, Dustin Vaught, Gordy Cassel, Karen Leigh Sharp, & Seph Casani. It’s much more playful than scary and more wacky than frightening. Of course it’s a bit similar to Five Nights at Freddy’s, too. There’s also a film at Sundance this year titled Buddy about a killer children’s show mascot. Watch out.

Here’s the official trailer (+ poster) for Josh Funk’s horror film The Fuzzies, direct from YouTube:

The Fuzzies is directed by American genre filmmaker Josh Funk, making his feature directorial debut with this project after directing many other short films previously. The screenplay is written by Dustin Vaught & Josh Funk. Based on Funk’s 2020 short film of the name name. It’s also produced by Dustin Vaught & Josh Funk. This hasn’t premiered at any festivals or elsewhere, as far as we know. Terror Films releases The Fuzzies horror film direct-to-VOD starting May 1st, 2026 coming up.

Streaming Ratings March 2-8, 2026

by jummy84
written by jummy84

The first week of March was a big one for streaming shows set in 19th century England.

Prime Video’s Young Sherlock got off to a solid start in its premiere week, recording 678 million minutes of watch time in Nielsen’s streaming ratings for March 2-8. The series, which follows Sherlock Holmes (Hero Fiennes Tiffin) as a college student and budding detective, was the top series debut of the week.

Bridgerton, meanwhile, spent a second week as the overall No. 1 title, coming in at 1.99 billion minutes of viewing. It was one of three series to score more than a billion viewing minutes, along with The Night Agent (1.12 billion) and The Pitt (1.11 billion), neither of which are set in 1800s England.

Two other shows also made their first appearances in the original series top 10: Netflix’s Steven Spielberg-produced nature series The Dinosaurs drew 612 million minutes of viewing, and Apple TV’s Monarch: Legacy of Monsters had 467 million a week into its second season.

Hulu’s Paradise accumulated 694 million minutes of watch time for the week — down from a series high of 950 million minutes the previous week but still well above all but the finale week of its first season last year.

Netflix’s action film War Machine, starring Alan Ritchson, also had a big opening week, leading the movie chart with 1.1 billion viewing minutes. All four Jurassic World movies also made the rankings, led by 2025’s Rebirth with 741 million minutes.

Nielsen’s streaming ratings cover viewing on TV sets only and don’t include minutes watched on computers or mobile devices. The ratings only measure U.S. audiences. The top streaming titles for March 2-8, 2026, are below.
