Boldy James and Real Bad Man Share Banging New Album Killing Nothing: Stream
Boldy James and Real Bad Man have teamed up for the ice cold new album Killing Nothing. James previously linked with Real Bad Man in 2020 for the stellar album Real Bad Boldy, which means this isn’t the first time that fans have wondered how Real Bad Man can simultaneously claim to be a Los Angeles clothing collective and also a music production crew (Adam Weissman and James Clay Jones III are credited on every track). Then again, we can definitely see the appeal in looking as tight as Killing Nothing sounds. The 13-track set features contributions from frequent Boldy collaborator Stove God Cooks, as well as CRIMEAPPLE, Knowledge the Pirate, and Rome Streetz.

Samara Weaving on the Joys of Playing a Diva in Hulu’s The Valet
“It is quite fun being a little bit evil. It’s just a bit more interesting than being nice all the time,” says The Valet star Samara Weaving, who didn’t realize until this interview how many times she’s played a “crazy actress” (her words) in the past few years. The Australian actress (and niece of Lord of the Rings star Hugo Weaving) got her first screen credit in 2008, and since then has appeared in projects including the Oscar-winning drama Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri, the Showtime dramedy SMILF, and the delightfully twisty horror film Ready or Not. But she also played aspiring actress (and daughter of the studio head) Claire in the Ryan Murphy and Ian Brennan Netflix series Hollywood in 2020, and in The Valet, she’s Olivia, a major star who convinces titular valet Antonio...

Pete Davidson Is Exiting Saturday Night Live
Pete Davidson is exiting Saturday Night Live, multiple outlets report. Tomorrow’s Season 47 finale, hosted by Natasha Lyonne and featuring Japanese Breakfast as the musical guest, is expected to be his last episode. Davidson joined the sketch program in 2014 at only 20 years old, making him the fourth-youngest cast member behind Robert Downey Jr. (also 20), Eddie Murphy (19), and Anthony Michael Hall (17). A relative unknown at the time, Davidson has evolved into one of the biggest names among the current cast, in part because of breathless tabloid coverage of his romantic entanglements — from his short-lived engagement to Ariana Grande to his current partnership with Kim Kardashian — and in part because of an increasing presence in buzzworthy films, such as The King of Stat...

Netflix Unveils First Eight Minutes of Stranger Things Season 4: Watch
Pack your bags, because we’re heading to Hawkins, Indiana: Netflix has shared the first eight minutes of the highly-anticipated fourth season of Stranger Things today.

Throughout the rooms of the lab are fleets of children with hospital gowns, shaved heads, and numbers marked on their wrists — just like Eleven when we first met her. But as Dr. Brenner (Matthew Modine) begins his routine examinations on Ten, the young test subject detects disaster unfolding in Hawkins Lab — and one familiar face appears particularly gui...
