The Most Memorable Music Moments From HBO’s ‘Euphoria’
TV shows and movies have been using songs to supplement stories for decades. On HBO’s Euphoria, tracks don’t just add emotion and intensity to certain scenes, the music has become as central to the story as the characters in the show themselves. The songs featured span decades and genres — including a ‘60s era Andy Williams hit to “Nonstop” off Drake’s 2018 smash Scorpion. But how does the show’s music supervisor Jen Malone curate the perfect soundtrack? It’s actually not rocket science: “Through Spotify, Soundcloud, Instagram, and Twitter. I just find the artists and read all the blogs,” she told W Magazine shortly after the pilot came out in June 2019. “I have a good network of friends who know what’s poppin’ and use playlists. I go into the rabbit holes and see what’s good.” Explore See...
‘Broadway Bares’ Benefit Sets Live Onstage Return for June
Broadway is back, and so too is the long-running Broadway Bares spectacular. The annual, one night only charity burlesque show will return — live, onstage and in-person — for its 30th anniversary celebration on June 26 at the Hammerstein Ballroom in New York. For the last two years, COVID-19 sidelined the show to a virtual event. The theme for 2022 Broadway Bares show will be announced at a later date, along with any special guests that may take the stage. Previous installments of the show have included appearances from musicians like Billy Porter, Vanessa Williams, Cyndi Lauper and Adam Lambert.

Get to Nose Cyrano de Bergerac
Cyrano de Bergerac is one of the most prominent romantic figures in literary history — but even he’d admit his nose was even bigger! The public first got a whiff of the exploits of the seductive swordsman in 1897, in a play that bears his name and has been retold on stage and screen scores of time ever since. Despite the historically famous loaf of French bread on his face (which can be picked up by satellite cameras to this day) Cyrano has remained the grooviest guy from Gaul with all the gals. We caught up with the smooth-talking swordsman to talk about Cyrano the ELEVENTH film – starring Peter Dinklage as Cyrano and Haley Bennett as Roxanne (in theaters Feb. 25) – celebrating his powers of persuasion with the ladies to see if he thinks it passes his smell test. SPIN: Thanks for tak...
