Gold Derby is serving up Big Brother 28 spoilers all summer long. Read at your own risk! The house turned upside-down last night after Rick Devens won the Week 2 Head of Household competition.

At Friday’s nominations ceremony, he officially put Jason De Puy, Lyric Medeiros, and Melody Morris on the chopping block. Jason immediately…

Salaam (also known as Brother Bilaal) is seeking the Oscar winner’s testimony in his lawsuit against Pinkett Smith, who he accuses of orchestrating a smear campaign against him after an alleged confrontation at Smith’s birthday party in 2021, according to court documents obtained by E!

Between 40 percent and 60 percent of women in perimenopause and menopause experience insomnia or other sleep difficulties, yet the problem is still routinely dismissed as an unavoidable part of getting older. With midlife sleep struggles finally breaking into the mainstream thanks to projects like the short film The M Factor, featuring Naomi Watts and Halle Berry, here’s what’s actually driving it and what works. Why Does Perimenopause Cause Insomnia? Perimenopause disrupts sleep through three overlapping hormonal shifts. Estrogen and progesterone both fall, melatonin production drops with age and cortisol, the body’s main stress hormone, tends to rise. Higher levels…
2026 has been a busy year for Sydney Sweeney so far after she returned as Cassie in the third and final season of Euphoria, but her momentum heading into the year was a result of another project. Back in 2025, Sweeney teamed up with Amanda Seyfried and Brandon Sklenar for The Housemaid, the erotic thriller based on the novel of the same name by Frieda McFadden. The Housemaid grossed over $400 million at the box office against a modest $35 million budget, making it one of the most profitable movies of 2025. It didn’t take Lionsgate long to confirm that…
Having watched Exit 8 (now on Shudder) and Backrooms within a few days of each other, I’m ready to banish the phrase “liminal space” to vocabulary purgatory. Both films feature characters wandering through atmospherically unsettling corridors that either endless loops (the former movie) or endlessly meander through quasi-psychological labyrinths (the latter).

The Japanese film debuted at the 2025 Cannes Film Festival, and is based on a hit video game, The Exit 8, that’s billed as a…
