New ‘Spider-Man: No Way Home’ Poster Confirms Appearance of Green Goblin
Sony Pictures confirmed in a new poster that the Green Goblin will make an appearance in Spider-Man: No Way Home. The poster sees Tom Holland‘s Spider-Man in the middle of chaos brought upon by Doc Ock’s robotic tentacles, Electro’s lightning and Sandman’s sand, while the Green Goblin is flying on his glider in the background sporting the mask Willem Dafoe wore in Sam Raimi’s Spider-Man films form the early 2000s. No Way Home’s first trailer only initially teased the villain with his iconic cackle and green bomb, however Dafoe was not actually present in the visual. Zendaya, Jacob Batalon, Marisa Tomei, Benedict Cumberbatch, Alfred Molina and Jamie Foxx will be reprising their roles as MJ, Ned Leeds, Aunt May, Dr. Strange, Doc Ock and Electro, respectively. No-Way Home will mark Molin...

M. SHADOWS: How AVENGED SEVENFOLD Got Involved In NFTs
AVENGED SEVENFOLD recently announced the Deathbats Club, a new level of connecting with fans based around non-fungible tokens, or NFTs — digital assets (free tickets for life, free meet-amd-greets for life, airdrops over the course of each year, drum lessons, guitar lessons, golf lessons, giveaways, skip the lines at shows, poker nights, movie nights, etc.) that can’t be replicated. After an initial drop of 101 free NFTs to whet fans’ appetites, they will release 10,000 at the end of November via avengedsevenfold.io, with everyone who buys one becoming part of the community.

Drake Shares New Song “Give It Up” on OVO Sound Radio
Drake treated fans this weekend as he debuted a never-before-heard song presumably entitled “Give It Up” on OVO Sound Radio. The slow-moving cut clocks in at about five minutes and hears Drizzy return to his roots of melancholic lyricism over relaxed beats. He touches on a woman he’s interested in pursuing, but she unfortunately is not interested in him due to his playboy lifestyle. “To love you right / I gotta give it up,” he sings at the end of chorus, hinting that he’s willing to give up his other women for her. The debut of “Give It Up” arrives shortly after Certified Lover Boy logged its fifth week atop the Billboard 200, making it the longest-charting rap album of 2021. It matched the record of Scorpion but is still many weeks away from the record of Views, which logged 13 weeks...
Travis Scott & Live Nation Sued Over ‘Predictable’ Astroworld Tragedy
The lawsuit claims the disaster was the direct result of “a motivation for profit at the expense of concertgoers’ health and safety” and the “encouragement of violence.” “Defendants failed to properly plan and conduct the concert in a safe manner,” wrote Souza’s attorney, Steve Kherkher of the firm Kherkher Garcia LLP. “Instead, they consciously ignored the extreme risks of harm to concertgoers, and, in some cases actively encouraged and fomented dangerous behaviors.” Representatives for Scott, Scoremore and Live Nation did not immediately return requests for comment on Sunday (Nov. 7). The case is one of the first of many lawsuits that are expected to be filed over the incident, which appears to be one of the deadliest crowd disasters at a music event in years. The crush occur...
Dionne Warwick Herself Crashes ‘SNL’ Talk Show Skit, Sings ‘What the World Needs Now Is Love’: Watch
“I’m tired of interviewing people who are not icons,” Nwodim’s Warwick said before introducing the real Warwick. “Please welcome, me.” Wearing similar sparking outfits, the two engage in some playful banter before Nwodim’s Warwick mentions a song she heard by rapper YoungBoy Never Broke Again. She then asks the real Warwick why musicians today aren’t just named Burt Bacharach, a reference to the singer’s former collaborator. “I don’t know the answer, but I will keep tweeting until I find out,” Warwick answers with a smile. SNL debuted the “Dionne Warwick Talk Show” skit in late 2020 after the legendary singer went viral on Twitter following some memorable exchanges with artists such as Taylor Swift and Chan...

808 State’s Andrew Barker Dies After ‘Short Period of Illness’
The statements were shared with a black-and-white portrait of Barker. The acid house act released their debut album, Newbuild, in 1988. Andy Barker (alongside Darren Partington, together known as the Spinmasters) joined when Gerald Simpson departed in 1989, and his first work with 808 State was the 1989 EP Quadrastate, which featured the track “Pacific State” that became a top 10 chart single in the United Kingdom. 808 State’s most recent release was 2019’s Transmission Suite, their first new album in 17 years. “I started DJing when I was fourteen in a local youth club, playing early hip hop and electro,” Barker was quoted as saying in an interview in 2019. “By the time I was old enough to go out clubbing, house music had arrived. The similarity between ...
Kieran Culkin Just Wants to Cancel His Cable in Hilarious SNL Sketch: Watch
“Your call is important to us, and will be answered in the order that we feel like.” The headache of cancelling with the cable company is universal, and Saturday Night Live decided to put host Kieran Culkin through the nightmare in a hilarious sketch during last night’s episode. The clip started with the Succession star merely wanting to cancel his cable package, as he’d broken up with his girlfriend and was moving out. However, a group of hapless Spectrum employees were determined to make the process as difficult as possible — whether that meant Aidy Bryant’s Tanya asking for the “42-digit customer pin number that came on [his] first bill” or Mikey Day’s customer service rep in training transferring him to a Domino’s pizza guy. Along the way, Culkin is constantly offered a land-line upgra...
Kieran Culkin Plays Ska-Loving Skateboarding Jockey in Bonkers SNL Sketch: Watch
Kieran Culkin won the Kentucky Derby as a skateboarder named Toby Bird on last night’s Saturday Night Live. And it was all set to a ska song, because why not? “So there I was/ Doing skate tricks at the park/ Then I jumped with too much force/ And I landed on a horse,” the Succession star sings as an explainer, before adding, “If I lean right or left/ He’d follow my every move/ And if I wanted him to go faster/ I’d just give him a bag of chips.” As the race progresses, Culkin’s teen ska sensation plasters the horse’s backside with skate stickers, and even manages to nail an ollie, a backside 180, and a kickflip…but only if he asks the horse nicely.
