It's time for a new Bebe Rexha era!

The Grammy-nominated artist, 36, announced her upcoming visual album Dirty Blonde on Thursday, Feb. 12 and released a Diplo-mixed supercut teasing its 13 tracks and music videos.

Much like Rexha's past releases, Dirty Blonde will feature a mix of genres — pop, EDM, country, hip-hop and more — according to the supercut. Each song will be released one by one by Rexha in partnership with independent label EMPIRE.

"This next chapter is about creative freedom — trusting my instincts, trusting my voice, and finally doing things the way I've always wanted to," said Rexha in a statement. "I've learned a lot, I've lived a lot, and I'm fully tuned into myself now. Following my gut has been one of the best decisions I've made in my career. This era is fearless, loud, and unapologetic — no filters, no limits. DIRTY BLONDE is me owning exactly who I am.

The supercut video opens with the New York native nodding to her roots by singing a track called "Chica Chica" with lyrics in Albanian while surrounded by burly men with "Bebe" tattoos at an outdoor street party. Other clips feature Rexha alongside pole dancers, making out with a waiter in a diner, dancing at a sweaty party and DJ-ing in a nightclub booth, while the songs include both confident and vulnerable lyrics about her life.

In the videos, she's also seen crying while getting hair and makeup done for a shoot, examining her physical features in a bathroom mirror, dancing around a convenience store, sitting on a bar, posing in the street, working out with a buff man in a gym and having an intense session with a therapist.

In an interview with Billboard, Rexha spoke about how she wants to showcase her true identity with Dirty Blonde, which marks her first independent full-length release.

"I feel like a lot of people, they saw me through this lens of when I was trying to be, like, this perfect, clean-girl pop star," she told the outlet. "When you're signed to a major [record label], it's a little bit stressful, you know? 'Cause you're trying to always make everybody else happy. A lot of the big songs that I had, too, were always in my computer — I'd always written them — and they were all basically 'No's' from whichever label I was at."

Rexha, who's earned huge hits with "Meant to Be" and "I'm Good (Blue)," said she's been encouraged against releasing what became some of her most successful songs in the past. Now, she's in control.

"Honestly, I haven't been able to show [this] side of me until now," she said. "Now I have a label, EMPIRE, that just is allowing me to be myself purely, and they celebrate that, and that's really cool."

Franco Nero shared sage advice from wife Vanessa Redgrave that he credits with helping him find success and longevity throughout his acting career

Nero and Redgrave first met and fell in love in the late 1960s; they share son Carlo Gabriel Nero, 56, but separated and then reunited as a couple in the 2000s

Nero is receiving a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame on Thursday, Feb. 12

Franco Nero is sharing words of wisdom he received from his wife Vanessa Redgrave.

Nero, 84, reflected on his legendary acting career and more than 20 years of marriage with Redgrave, 89, as he spoke with Variety on Thursday, Feb. 12 before he received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in Los Angeles. Nero and Oscar winner Redgrave married in 2006, but their romance dates back to the 1960s. The pair share son Carlo Gabriel Nero, 56.

"I am absolutely convinced that the longevity of my career is also due to a profound lesson I learned from Vanessa: determination. She used to repeat it to me often," Nero told Variety, while looking back on an acting career that began with Italian movies like 1962's Pelle villa.

"Beyond being the woman of my life, she is the most prestigious living actress — Vanessa is determination personified," he added. "For this reason, my artistic longevity and my relationship with Vanessa, dating back to the time of Camelot are deeply connected."

Nero and Redgrave first met when they costarred in the 1967 musical Camelot, which released one year after Nero himself broke out with his iconic role in the 1966 Spaghetti Western movie Django. Nero portrayed King Arthur's (Richard Harris) friend-turned-enemy Sir Lancelot, while Redgrave played Arthur's wife (and Lancelot's secret lover) Guinevere.

The pair separated some time after welcoming their son Carlo. Redgrave was already a mother to daughters Natasha Richardson, who died in 2009 at 45, and Joely Richardson, 61, with her late ex-husband Tony Richardson. Franco became their stepfather after he and Redgrave married in 2006.

As Nero and Redgrave told PEOPLE in 2010, they revived their friendship in the 1990s and subsequently fell in love again, which Redgrave said "happened naturally."

"When you rediscover love, it's even stronger. It's not physical anymore, it's something deep," Nero added at the time.

Following their romantic reunion, Nero and Redgrave costarred in movies like 2010's Letters to Juliet and a 2025 movie directed by Carlo titled The Estate, which premiered at the Torino Film Festival in Nero's native Italy in November. Redgrave also starred in their son Carlo's 2004 movie The Fever alongside Joely. It is unclear when The Estate may release in U.S. theaters.

Nick Jonas is a big fan of the Squatty Potty, calling the little stool — which is designed to ease bowel movements — "the best thing ever"

The singer even suggested BBC Radio 1's Matt Edmondson write a letter to his wife convincing her to embrace the product

"Even though it gets in the way, it shouldn't get in the way of your relationship," Jonas joked

Nick Jonas is a big fan of the Squatty Potty.

The Gut Punch singer got especially candid about his bathroom habits during a Wednesday, Feb. 11 interview on BBC Radio 1, even giving advice to host Matt Edmondson on how he can convince his wife to embrace the helpful stool.

"Absolutely. It's the best thing ever," Jonas, 33, said about the product, which elevates the feet, creating a 35-degree squatting position and easing bowel movements. Radio 1 host Matt Edmondson expressed to Jonas that he has a 'poop stool' by his own toilet as well, but his wife isn't into the product.

"I've got one, and honestly, it's not gone down well," the host said. "Yeah, it's a dilemma," Jonas replied.

"Not to give you marriage advice here, you should write a letter explaining why it's so important to you to have this. And even though it gets in the way, it shouldn't get in the way of your relationship. That's my unsolicited marriage advice for you today," joked Jonas, who has been married to actress Priyanka Chopra Jonas since 2018.

Chopra Jonas, 43, recently shut down speculation about issues within the couple's marriage.

"We're eight years in," the Quantico actress told Variety in a cover story published Wednesday, Feb. 11. "If people want to keep waiting for it to implode, that's their choice. I stopped thinking about it."

The couple wed in two lavish ceremonies in India in December 2018, just months after they began dating. Priyanka told Vanity Fair that she's aware that her relationship with Nick "rubbed people the wrong way,"

"I don't know what was it about us," said Chopra Jonas "I think there was the intercultural nature of it — different countries, different religions, age gap. It was very hurtful." The Jonases welcomed daughter Malti Marie in January 2022.

Both Nick and Priyanka are celebrating new projects. Nick released his fifth studio album, Sunday Best, earlier this month, while Priyanka's new film, The Bluff, will release on Feb. 25 on Prime Video.

The couple died in a plane crash on July 16, 1999

They were in marriage counseling around the time of their deaths

John F. Kennedy Jr. and Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy's relationship was full of passion.

The pair, who met in 1992 and wed in a secret ceremony on Cumberland Island, Ga., four years later, had their share of ups and downs, with the pair attending marriage counseling before the tragic plane crash that took both of their lives on July 16, 1999.

As John's close friend Sasha Chermayeff shared in the 2024 book, JFK Jr: An Intimate Oral Biography by Liz McNeil and RoseMarie Terenzio, "He was obsessed from the minute he met her."

Ariel Paredes, the granddaughter of Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis's assistant Providencia Paredes, told PEOPLE in June 2017, "They would love hard, and they would fight hard. [But] they were very much in love."

JFK Jr. and Carolyn's relationship is now the subject of Ryan Murphy's latest anthology series, Love Story, which premiered on FX and Hulu on Feb. 12.

Here's everything to know about John F. Kennedy Jr. and Carolyn Bessette's relationship, from their dressing room meet-cute to their untimely deaths.

Author Elizabeth Beller wrote in her 2024 book, Once Upon a Time: The Captivating Life of Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy, that the magazine editor and the PR rep first met in 1992 in the VIP fitting room at Calvin Klein, where she was working with VIP clientele.

"Calvin — along with his wife, Kelly Klein, and ... assistant MJ Bettenhausen — decided it should be [Carolyn], the most effervescent person on the sales floor, who would show John the selection of clothing," Beller wrote.

Not only did Carolyn make a sale, sending JFK Jr. home with several new suits, but she also gave him her phone number, which he reportedly called days later.

"[Carolyn] intrigued him more than anyone he'd ever met. A force of nature. He said he wanted to marry her. He was adamant," JFK Jr.'s best friend Robbie Littell said in JFK Jr: An Intimate Oral Biography.

Their first date was a bust

The couple's first meetup was far from smooth sailing. Bettenhausen told Beller for her 2024 book that Carolyn wasn't impressed with the company JFK Jr. was keeping at the gala dinner he had invited her to.

"Sitting next to him was another woman that Carolyn either mistook as his date, or actually was his date," Bettenhausen said.

Though the magazine publisher invited Carolyn along to an afterparty for the gala, she declined, reportedly telling JFK Jr. she was "meeting people."

Things turned around for the pair at a fundraiser on May 18, 1992, at which they were seen in "deep conversation" for more than an hour — just the two of them.

Carolyn never met JFK Jr.'s mother

JFK Jr.'s would-be wife never got to meet his mother before the former first lady's death on May 19, 1994 — a fact that became a point of contention between the two.

"The on, off-ness of their relationship between '92 and '94, partially, was ... because [Carolyn] would break up with him over the fact that he wasn't introducing her to Jackie," Beller told PEOPLE in May 2024. "[She was] thinking, 'This can't be serious if he's not really introducing me to his mother.' "

According to Beller, Carolyn was "increasingly irked" that JFK Jr. had met her mother, Ann Messina Freeman, but she had not met Kennedy Onassis. "If Carolyn met Jackie, I think [JFK Jr.] knew that that would sort of become a life of its own," the author told PEOPLE. "Maybe he wasn't quite ready for that."

Kennedy Onassis reportedly disapproved of her son's girlfriend, Daryl Hannah, to whom he was linked to when he met Carolyn.

As The Kennedy Heirs author J. Randy Taraborrelli wrote in his 2019 book, "John had measured most of the women in his life by Jackie's opinion of them. If his mother approved, John would decide he wasn't sure. However, if his mother disapproved, as she did with ... Hannah, John became even more attached."

Beller told PEOPLE that JFK Jr. later regretted not introducing his mother to Carolyn, calling it "one of his main regrets."

JFK Jr. proposed in July 1995 — but Carolyn didn't accept right away

Despite the fact that JFK Jr. was considered one of New York's most eligible bachelors, earning the title of PEOPLE's Sexiest Man Alive in 1988, Carolyn took her time to respond to his July 1995 proposal.

Per Once Upon a Time: The Captivating Life of Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy, John popped the question during a fishing trip to Martha's Vineyard, telling her, "Fishing is so much better with a partner," as he slid a platinum ring of diamonds and sapphires on her finger.

According to Beller, Carolyn responded by saying, "I'll think about it."

As a close friend of JFK Jr. told PEOPLE in June 2017, "She held the proposal off for about three weeks, which I think just made him all the more intent on marrying her."

Their wedding was a private affair

JFK Jr. and Carolyn tied the knot on Sept. 21, 1996, in an intimate ceremony on Georgia's Cumberland Island.

The church they exchanged their vows in held no more than eight pews for their 40 guests, including JFK Jr.'s sister Caroline Kennedy and her husband Edwin Schlossberg and Carolyn's mother and sister Lisa.

Caroline's daughters, Rose and Tatiana, served as flower girls, while her son Jack was the couple's ring bearer.

The bride, who was a bit late to the ceremony, walked down the aisle in a simple $40,000 spaghetti strap slip dress designed by her friend Narciso Rodriguez.

They celebrated at the Greyfield Inn, where guests indulged in a three-tier cake covered with vanilla butter-cream frosting and flower decorations.

Gogo Ferguson, who hosted the wedding at the Greyfield Inn, gave her first interview about the fairytale wedding weekend in the book, JFK Jr: An Intimate Oral Biography. Ferguson said, "She looked like a calla lily. ... There was no electricity in the church. I mean that one photo of them of them standing at the altar — so beautiful."

The newlyweds shared their first dance to Prince's "Forever in My Life."

Carolyn didn't feel like she "fit in" with the Kennedys

Though Carolyn never got the chance to meet her husband's mother, she did visit his family at the Kennedy Compound in Hyannis Port, Mass.

The trip reportedly shook Carolyn's confidence after she was quizzed on current events over dinner. "Carolyn tried to fit in — and that speaks to her tenacity and her desire to please John," wrote The Kennedy Heirs author Taraborelli.

Though Carolyn reportedly told friends she had no desire to return to the compound, Taraborelli wrote that she was "summoned" to the home of JFK Jr.'s aunt, Ethel Kennedy, in Hickory Hill, Va., after the couple were seen fighting in Central Park.

According to Taraborelli's 2019 book, Ethel told Carolyn not to let her nephew goad her into "bad behavior," saying, "You have to be better than that and you have to be bigger than that."

Taraborelli wrote, "It was tough love because she wanted Carolyn to make it and she sensed her vulnerability."

They were in marriage counseling in their final months

While JFK Jr. and Carolyn's relationship appeared harmonious from the outside, the couple had begun marriage counseling in the spring of 1999.

Beller wrote, "A week [after July 4], John had told several friends and colleagues that he and Carolyn were splitting up. Yet, others noted they seemed very happy together, even the weekend before."

According to JFK Jr.'s close friend Chermayeff, who was interviewed for JFK Jr.: An Intimate Oral Biography, the couple were going through a rough patch amid the impending death of JFK Jr.'s cousin, Anthony Radziwill, to cancer, as well as relentless media attention from the paparazzi.

Anthony's wife, The Real Housewives of New York alum Carole Radziwill, told PEOPLE in June 2017 that the pair weren't as far gone as they may have seemed. "To say their marriage was on the rocks is just inaccurate," she said.

The Kennedy Heirs author Taraborelli added, "They were working on their relationship at the time they died. They thought they had all the time in the world to figure this out."

Carolyn's mother warned JFK Jr. never to take both of her daughters flying

On July 16, 1999, the plane JFK Jr. was flying to Rory Kennedy's wedding with Carolyn and her older sister Lauren onboard disappeared.

Carolyn's mother, Ann Freeman, was reportedly "panic-stricken" at the news. "She said something like, 'I told him never to take two of my girls up at the same time,' " Terenzio recalled in JFK Jr.: An Intimate Oral Biography.

"She was angry," John's former assistant added.

They died together in a tragic plane crash on July 16, 1999

Tragically, the plane JFK Jr. was piloting crashed into the Atlantic Ocean after he became disoriented while driving through thick fog over Martha's Vineyard on July 16, 1999.

He, Carolyn and her sister, Lauren died upon impact sometime after 9:40 p.m., according to their autopsies, which were made upon discovery of their bodies on July 21, 1999.

JFK Jr. was 38, while his two passengers, Carolyn and Lauren, were 33 and 34, respectively.

"John and Carolyn were wonderful people. They fell in love, they had a stunning, dreamlike wedding," Chermayeff said in July 2019. "I don't know what would have come to pass had they not night died that night 20 summers ago — and no one does."

Brendan Morrow, USA TODAYFebruary 13, 2026 at 2:36 AM

Ryan Gosling is returning to "Saturday Night Live!"

The "Barbie" star, 45, will be back in Studio 8H for the sketch comedy series' March 7 episode, NBC has announced. He'll be joined by musical guest Gorillaz.

This will be Gosling's fourth time hosting "SNL." He most recently did so in 2024, when he was promoting his action-comedy "The Fall Guy."

Gosling's 2024 "SNL" episode was a hit with fans and featured the viral "Beavis and Butt-Head" sketch, in which he and Mikey Day played two members of an audience who unintentionally derail an event due to their uncanny resemblance to the cartoon characters. The sketch was so popular that Gosling and Day reprised the roles at the Los Angeles premiere of "The Fall Guy."

Ryan Gosling speaks onstage at CinemaCon on April 2, 2025, in Las Vegas.

Gosling's latest "SNL" hosting stint will come ahead of the release of his new science-fiction movie "Project Hail Mary," which is based on the Andy Weir novel and hits theaters on March 20. Gorillaz will be making their debut as an "SNL" musical guest. The band's latest album, "The Mountain," will be released on Feb. 27.

James Van Der Beek's family is looking for their financial path forward after the actor's death at 48

Fans of his career have questioned why the actor wasn't put on the path to financial success after six seasons as Dawson Leery on Dawson's Creek

Fans of James Van Der Beek and Dawson's Creek are looking for answers after learning his family is struggling financially following his death.

On Feb. 11, the actor's wife, Kimberly Van Der Beek, announced the news that he died at age 48 after a journey with stage 3 colorectal cancer. Shortly after, friends helped set up a GoFundMe on behalf of the family. In 24 hours, over $1 million had been raised.

"In the wake of this loss, Kimberly and the children are facing an uncertain future," the GoFundMe description reads. "The costs of James's medical care and the extended fight against cancer have left the family out of funds. They are working hard to stay in their home and to ensure the children can continue their education and maintain some stability during this incredibly difficult time. The support of friends, family, and the wider community will make a world of difference as they navigate the road ahead."

The GoFundMe follows months of other fundraising efforts for the family, which included selling off memorabilia from some of his biggest roles. It has left many fans wondering how the star of such a prominent hit could have had such a difficult time financially.

The answer is complicated. In part, there's the fact that per the CDC, colorectal cancer has the second-highest treatment cost of any cancer, accounting for 11.6% of all cancer treatment costs. Their statistics indicate that as of 2020, end-of-life costs, for the last year of a patient's life, were the highest that they are throughout the illness.

As for Van Der Beek's time on television for Dawson's Creek, the actor himself spoke candidly about it in 2012.

"There was no residual money," he told TODAY.com. "I was 20. It was a bad contract. I saw almost nothing from that."

In the 2012 interview, he said he signed on for the show, Don't Trust the B---- in Apartment 23, which premiered that year, "when the [Dawson's Creek] money ran out."

He explained that he "buckled down" and signed on for projects around that time to provide for his family. "It is very easy if you have all the money in the world to just sit back and coast. But if you realized that you are going to have to start providing for yourself and for your family, it really forces you to buckle down," he shared.

Rachel True, who appeared on two episodes of Dawson's Creek, noted in a tweet that shows that did not air on network television are impacted by residuals rules.

"TV shows not on ABC, CBS, or NBC are considered already 'syndicated' & all that means they don't have to pay proper residuals to actors. It F's actors like James out of their deserved financial security & proper legacy," she wrote.

Dawson's Creek aired on the WB for six seasons from 1998 through 2003.

Van Der Beek commented on the residuals situation during the 2023 SAG-AFTRA strike.

Speaking to the reasons behind the strike in an Instagram video showing his support, he explained, "The big things have to do with issues that would allow writers and actors who are just starting out to earn something that looks like a living wage — things like residuals, which have all but disappeared in the streaming era."

"These are nothing to multi-billion dollar corporations, but they're everything to people trying to pay their groceries and their rent."

While there were wins on the subject of residuals at the strike's conclusion, many actors have argued they don't properly account for how streaming views have dwarfed broadcast viewership in recent years.

SAG-AFTRA's post honoring Van Der Beek after his death contains comments and replies filled with criticism of the union's healthcare system, which has come under significant scrutiny in recent years for a work requirement that disqualifies actors who don't meet a certain income threshold or number of days worked over a period of time.

It first became the subject of a lawsuit in 2020, when the number of ongoing productions dwindled significantly as a result of pandemic shutdowns and requirements across different states, leaving many actors faced with losing their health insurance. It was at that time that the union sought to raise the threshold for insurance eligibility to those earning $25,950 a year, from $18,040, per The New York Times.

As of Jan. 1, 2026, an actor must make $28,090, or work 108 "eligibility days" to be covered by the union's insurance. Van Der Beek was diagnosed with stage 3 colorectal cancer in August 2023, and had since appeared in four films and three TV series, including two projects which have yet to be released.
