Amid a wealth of style choices at the 2026 Emmys, one color ruled above all: a bold crimson in its best look-at-me hue, seen on women happy to embrace its powerful psychology. From Cailee Spaeny in custom Miu Miu to Hassie Harrison in Monique Lhuillier, Rhea Seehorn in Louis Vuitton and Emmys host Mariska Hargitay in Monse on the red carpet, the choice was just the beginning of an evening that acquitted itself well on the style spectrum.
Among the more touching elements of the night's fashion conversations were the remembrances of legendary designer Bob Mackie, whose death in Palm Springs at the age of 87 was announced mere hours before the 78th Primetime Emmys kicked off at the Peacock Theater in downtown Los Angeles. During the pre-show, E! News host Keltie Knight took a moment to honor Mackie, calling him "one of the most prolific and celebrated costume designers of all time … [who] created some of the most iconic looks of all time for stars like Cher, Carol Burnett, Elton John, Diana Ross, Marilyn Monroe, Barbra Streisand, Dolly Parton and so many others. His impact on the world of fashion is really hard to put into words, and his legacy absolutely lives on." E! News finished the segment with a moment of silence and a black screen.

Wisconsin congressman Tom Tiffany was on his way home Saturday evening following a demanding day of parades and political events when his plane plunged into the pitch-black darkness of Lake Wausau.
As he was returning from the La Crosse County Lincoln Day Dinner in Onalaska, Wisconsin, Tiffany, the Republican gubernatorial nominee, was aboard a Beechcraft K35 when it lost power as it approached Wausau Downtown Airport, the congressman told reporters during a Sunday news conference.
"Hang on, Tom, and buckle up because we're going to go down," Tiffany recounted pilot Len Bolt warning him moments before the emergency landing.
About 10 seconds later, the plane hit the water.
"We were down to 70, 80 miles an hour at that point, and so it was a fast-moving car crash, and all that happened to me was my head hit the dash in front of me, and that was the extent of the damage," Tiffany said. "We're just really fortunate. We're fortunate the plane didn't flip."

More than 30 years ago, all over the walls of a high school about an hour west of downtown San Antonio, the signs started appearing.
In breezeways, next to lockers, and around the cafeteria, the motivational slogans kept popping up, some scrawled in magic marker on poster board, and others printed out on long sheets of dot-matrix paper. They were hung by a D'Hanis baseball coach who wanted to remind students that they could win anything with the "RIGHT MENTAL ATTITUDE," and that "PRESSURE MAKES DIAMONDS," and that "WHEN THE GOING GETS TOUGH, THE TOUGH GET GOING."
A bunch of clichés, maybe, but harmless ones. The coach meant well, and his team wound up winning state.
One of his colleagues, though, was a world-class wiseacre, and couldn't resist the opportunity to poke fun. Bill Lovett coached boys basketball and taught history. And above the chalkboard in his classroom one day, there was a long dot-matrix printout bearing a slogan of his own creation.
"AN ELEPHANT IN DISGUISE IS STILL BIG," it read.

Lil Durk has been cleared of every charge in the federal murder-for-hire trial that drew packed courtrooms, celebrity spectators and crowds of supporters to downtown Los Angeles.
A federal jury found the 33-year-old Chicago rapper, whose legal name is Durk Banks, not guilty on September 11 after three days of deliberations. The case centered on an August 2022 attack targeting rapper Quando Rondo that instead killed Rondo's 24-year-old cousin, Saviay'a Robinson, according to The ******* ociated Press.
Prosecutors accused Durk of financing and directing the attack in retaliation for the 2020 killing of his close friend Dayvon "King Von" Bennett. Durk's lawyers argued that former ******* istant Kavon Grant organized the plot without the rapper's knowledge and attacked the credibility of cooperating witnesses who had reached plea agreements with the government.
Durk was not released after the verdict. He remains in federal custody because he faces a separate trial involving murder-related racketeering and firearms allegations, with jury selection currently scheduled to begin October 5.
Durk had faced five counts: conspiracy to commit stalking, stalking using a dangerous weapon, stalking resulting in death, conspiracy to use interstate commerce facilities to commit murder-for-hire resulting in death and use of interstate commerce facilities to commit murder-for-hire resulting in death.

Arkansas-Pine Bluff and Alcorn State will meet for the second consecutive season in the 37th annual Southern Heritage Classic on Sept. 12 (6 p.m., HBCU Go). The Golden Lions won last season's meeting 24-20 at Simmons Bank Liberty Stadium.
Playing in the Southern Heritage Classic is more than just a conference game for the two foes. Both the Braves (1-1) and Golden Lions (1-1) have alumni bases in Memphis and fans from areas not too far away.
Golden Lions coach Alonzo Hampton and Alcorn State coach Cedric Thomas were celebrated at the annual coaches luncheon inside the Renasant Convention Center on Sept. 11.
Hampton reflected on the team's journey back to this event. This will be UAPB's fourth consecutive appearance after having a 1-2 record through three years.
"It has been amazing," Hampton said. "So we get excited, man. Every year we get a chance to come back. It keeps getting bigger and bigger, and you know you pray for good weather, and hopefully everything works out. But it's fun. I look forward to it. Our players look forward to it. We stay downtown at the Westin, and the band's coming, so it's just really exciting, man, to come back and be able to do this."

NEW YORK – Ready or not, here she comes.
Just when you think you know Tory Burch's next move, she subverts expectations and continues her reign as one of the most interesting American designers today.
The designer brought out a cadre of stars for her New York Fashion Week show Thursday, Sept. 10, at the Sunken Garden by Isamu Noguchi in downtown Manhattan. Though far from an underground designer, Burch took her show to subterranean levels before she reached new heights with her collection and her front row, which included a fashionably timely Lauryn Hill, flanked by daughter Sara Marley and niece Kymora Marley, as well as actress Amanda Seyfried, "Saturday Night Live" alum Chloe Fineman and fashion power broker Anna Wintour.
Alex Eala, the young newcomer who dominated at the US Open until her defeat by best friend and fellow young star Iva Jovic, also joined along with emerging talent Ravyn Lenae and established celebrities like Padma Lakshmi and director Janicza Bravo.
Hill, in oversized sunglasses and an olive-green cinched top and tiered skirt with a silk scarf draped delicately over her head, garnered camera flashes from every angle. Perched atop her lap (and on the arms of everyone in the front row) was Burch's newly released Bunny Knot bag, with Hill's in a ****** er yellow color with the dark knot detailing looking like polka dots.

The 2024-25 Boston Celtics set the NBA single-season three-point record with 1,457 makes across 82 games. Three different Celtics players made at least 250 threes that season, something no team had ever seen before. The question heading into 2026-27 is whether the Hornets can break the NBA three-point record.
Analyst Tom Haberstroh specifically named Charlotte as a genuine contender. Looking at the roster, it is not hard to see why.
" I think this Charlotte Hornets team, even though they lost LaMelo Ball, who was at times the most high-volume scorer, shooter in the NBA from downtown, still, I think this team, dude, I think they have a chance to break the three-point record next year," Haberstroh said on The Kevin O'Connor Show. "You got Coby White, who's a 95, 96 percentile volume three-point shooter. Good three-point shooter off the dribble. Kon Knueppel, we already know; the fact that he led the league in threes as a rookie is insane. Brandon Miller, also a high-volume three-point shooter."

Look at what Charlotte is putting on the floor. Kon Knueppel made 273 threes in his rookie season — the most in NBA history by a first-year player. Grayson Allen is 40.3% from three in his career. Royce O'Neale shoots 38.9% from deep while White (36.9%) and Naz Reid (37.1%) connect at 36.9% and 37.1%, respectively.

Megyn Kelly took shots at Sandra Bullock on Thursday for being afraid for her kids' safety because they're Black.
The "Megyn Kelly Show" host went after the "Practical Magic 2" star for comments made during the film's press tour. The actress said she was "uber paranoid" for the safety of her two children – who are both Black – in America right now. Kelly was quick to take issue with that, saying Bullock is feeding into the real problem.
"She has two children, both adopted, I think, from Louisiana. She wants you to believe, just like LeBron James said that Black men are being hunted in the streets of America… that they're being hunted in the streets of America," Kelly said. "She is a low-information voter, obviously, who has bought the lies about police, the false narrative that has besmirched them, defamed them and gotten Black Americans killed, thousands of them. Thousands killed because of fake narratives about the police that caused the police to pull back, especially in underserved communities."
"Minorities wind up dying. Low-income minorities, in particular, wind up dying because crime is unleashed on them by effectively woke white liberals like Sandra Bullock, who pushes false narratives that make her feel better about herself," she continued. "She's going to score points with Hoda [Kotb], but she doesn't give a s–t what happens to the people in Harlem or Downtown Chicago. And trust me when I tell you, her children are not in danger."
Earlier this week, Kotb got teary eyed with Bullock and her co-star Nicole Kidman when she said the star's choice to adopt her children Louis and Laila pushed the "Today" host to make the same decision.

The ******* e was first a one-bedroom apartment which he purchased back in 1998.

In a Fox News exclusive interview, Democratic Senate candidate James Talarico came out in favor of banning gender surgery for minors and opposed transgender-identifying men competing in women's sports.
Talarico also backtracked on several of his more controversial claims, including saying there are six genders and that "God is nonbinary."
This comes as the Texas Senate race, which is surprisingly close according to recent Fox News polling, enters its final months. The race is considered critical to both parties' chances of securing a Senate majority. Talarico is facing Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, a Republican who has faced controversies of his own. A Republican loss in Texas would significantly impact President Donald Trump's ability to implement his agenda.
Fox News spoke with Talarico at a food drive campaign event in Dallas on Tuesday. Talarico's event took place as the first-ever GOP midterm convention kicked off just miles away in downtown Dallas.

And she wants it to be on the biggest stage yet.
Representatives for Shields, the undisputed "GWOAT" of boxing who remains undefeated as a professional, have had recent negotiations to stage her next bout at downtown Detroit's Ford Field.

"We just feel like it's the right time to make history again, to break another glass ceiling," Dmitriy Salita, of Salita Promotions, told The Detroit News on Thursday.
"We would love for this milestone to happen in Detroit, as well."

The Flying Biscuit Café has signed a franchise agreement with franchisee Keisha Carter to bring the Atlanta-born all-day breakfast and brunch brand to McDonough, Ga., and the surrounding Henry County market. The site and opening date will be announced separately.
Henry County is one of the fastest-growing counties in Georgia. Its population rose from 203,922 residents in 2010 to 240,712 in the 2020 census, and the U.S. Census Bureau estimated it at 264,922 in 2025. McDonough, the county seat and its largest city, sits along Interstate 75 about 30 miles southeast of downtown Atlanta. Carter, who lives in the market, said growth there has outpaced the area's sit-down breakfast and brunch options — the gap that drew her to it.
Carter brings nearly 10 years of experience in sales, business development, operations, client relations and team leadership, including roles at several Fortune 500 companies before moving into entrepreneurship. She holds an MBA in finance management and is a Six Sigma Black Belt, and currently leads a metro Atlanta real estate group where she oversees business operations, marketing, sales strategy, team development and client experience. She and her family have been Flying Biscuit regulars for years, and often talked about the south metro needing a location closer to home.
Carter will partner with Eric Gladmon, who will serve as the venture's main operating partner. Gladmon owns and operates an Atlanta salon that has been in business for more than 30 years, and brings that ownership and operations experience to the group.

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Former Fox Sports ****** yst Mark Sanchez plans to plead guilty to charges ahead of a trial stemming from an October 2025 fight with a truck driver outside an Indianapolis hotel, according to court records filed Thursday.
A motion asks for a guilty plea and sentencing hearing for Sanchez in Marion County Superior Court. Online records didn't indicate which charges Sanchez plans to plead guilty to.
Sanchez faces a felony battery charge, along with three misdemeanor charges, for what prosecutors have said was a fight over parking.
The ex-NFL quarterback's jury trial was scheduled to start Tuesday. The trial had been rescheduled five times since it was initially set to begin in December. Sanchez and Fox Sports also face a civil lawsuit filed by the truck driver, Perry Tole.
A police affidavit alleges that Sanchez, smelling of alcohol, accosted Tole, who had backed his truck into a hotel's loading docks in downtown Indianapolis. Tole claims in his lawsuit that Sanchez entered the truck without permission, then physically blocked and shoved Tole, who then doused Sanchez with pepper spray.

A motion asks for a guilty plea and sentencing hearing for Sanchez in Marion County Superior Court. Online records didn't indicate which charges Sanchez plans to plead guilty to.
Sanchez faces a felony battery charge, along with three misdemeanor charges, for what prosecutors have said was a fight over parking.

It's been nearly three years since José Urquidy has thrown a pitch inside the Houston Astros' downtown ballpark, so when he arrived back in town as a member of the Chicago White Sox, he made sure to take the early bus to Daikin Park on Monday to take it all in.
"I walked in through the entrance in right field and just took a look around and said, 'Yeah, we were here for a long time and threw a lot of games here,'" Urquidy said from the visiting dugout before the Astros-White Sox series opener. "I'm playing in a different city now, but I can't wait to see my ex-teammates and talk a little bit. It feels really good to be back here."
The 31-year-old Urquidy had some huge moments in his six years with the Astros. He went 27-16 with a 3.98 ERA in 79 outings with the team, while also pitching in five postseasons, including three World Series. As a rookie, he got the win in Game 4 of the 2019 World Series against the Washington Nationals when he threw five shutout innings, allowing just two hits. He picked up two wins in the 2021 World Series against the Atlanta Braves, including a Game 2 start in which he struck out seven over five innings, allowing two runs. His three World Series wins are the most by any Mexican-born pitcher and the most of any pitcher in Astros history.
"All my games and all my innings that I threw here are something that I'm going to remember for all of my life," Urquidy said. "I can't tell you one (favorite memory) right now, but there are a lot of memories here and outside the field, too. The people, they recognize me wherever I go. My family and I have a lot of memories here."
Signed by the Astros as a 19-year-old international free agent out of Mazatlán, Mexico in 2015, Urquidy has dealt with injuries through much of his professional career. He had his first Tommy John surgery in 2017 after pitching in High-A in the minors. Two years later, he made his big-league debut. A shoulder injury limited him to 16 outings in 2023, and Urquidy suffered a forearm strain during spring training in 2024. He was close to rejoining the Astros when he had a setback in a Triple-A rehab start and had to have a second Tommy John surgery, marking the end of his tenure in Houston.

As training camp and the 2026-27 NBA season slowly approach, it is time to start taking a look at what each member of the Los Angeles Lakers should be working on this summer and how each of them can help the team be as successful as it can be.
Therefore, LeBron Wire is outlining three goals for each Lakers player this coming season.
Forward Arthur Kaluma, who went undrafted out of the University of Texas a year ago, was with the Lakers' G League affiliate last season. But after an impressive showing in July's summer league, he earned himself a two-way contract. Now he has an opportunity to perhaps earn some playing time and perhaps even break into coach JJ Redick's rotation at some point, especially if he accomplishes these three goals.
During the G League tip-off tournament and regular season last year, Kaluma shot 37.8% from 3-point range while taking 3.7 3-point attempts in 24.4 minutes a game. In the main Las Vegas summer league, he shot 50% from downtown on a high volume of attempts while averaging 18.6 points a game.
Redick values players who can hit from the outside and provide overall offense, and if Kaluma does that at the NBA level, he will give Redick a different decision to make as far as divying up minutes and figuring out his depth chart at the wing and forward spots.

Once a worker reaches full retirement age of 67, Social Security cannot withhold benefits regardless of how much they earn returning to work.
Union pension funds can permanently suspend monthly checks when retirees return to the same industry, trade, and geographic area for 40-plus hours a month.
Suspended pension checks are rarely paid back, so a $8,000 job that pauses a $2,400 monthly pension must be evaluated on net gain, not headline pay.
Don't wait: the ****** yst who called NVIDIA in 2010 just revealed his top 10 AI stocks. See the full list FREE now.
A heavy-equipment operator sits in an excavator cab downtown. Around 2005, he helped put up the five-story office building in front of him. Two decades later, the city wants stadium parking there, and a contractor has called him back for one last job: tearing down what he helped build. At 67, the pay is good, the controls still feel familiar, and Social Security keeps arriving without interruption. Then his union pension fund learns where he is working.

A new report is warning that networks aligned with the Muslim Brotherhood have become deeply embedded in Canada, raising concerns that Islamist influence taking root north of the border could pose a broader threat to the U.S. and Western democracies.
A report from the Institute for the Study of Global Antisemitism and Policy (ISGAP) revealed ties between Muslim Brotherhood-aligned groups and Canadian democratic institutions, civil society, electoral politics and higher education, demonstrating similarities with other activist movements in the West, a phenomenon some ****** ysts have described as the "red-green alliance."
"Canada's challenge is not simply the presence of individual extremist voices or isolated institutional weakness. The report maps how interconnected ideological networks acquire legitimacy, institutional access, public funding, political influence and protection from scrutiny," Charles Asher Small, the research institute's executive director, told Fox News Digital.

High-powered IndyCars will take to the streets around the National Mall in Washington, D.C., on Sunday, racing in a 250-mile circuit that marks the latest Trump-backed sporting event to commemorate the 250th anniversary of the U.S.
The Freedom 250 Grand Prix is slated to take place Sunday in downtown D.C.
The Freedom 250 Grand Prix will wrap around a small portion of the National Mall in a 1.7-mile circuit near the Capitol that includes seven turns and 147 laps—adding up to a 250-mile race.
Nearly a half mile of Pennsylvania Avenue will be driven during the race, marking the circuit's longest straightaway in which cars will have a pit lane to their left and are expected to reach speeds around 185 mph (the speed limit for regular traffic there is 25 mph).
The race is free but attendance requires a general admission ticket, which is no longer available following the closing of a ticket request window on June 7.

Gillian Anderson looked back on a rambunctious moment of her teenage years that resulted in an arrest.
The former X-Files actress revealed on the Monday (August 17) episode of podcast Conan O'Brien Needs a Friend that she was on crystal meth when she was arrested for breaking into her Grand Rapids, Michigan school back in 1986. Anderson would have been 17 years old at the time.
Anderson shared that around the time of the incident, she was in a "punk phase" and had on "pointy buckle boots" while breaking into her alma mater, City High-Middle School.
"So when the security guard was chasing me through downtown Grand Rapids, I stepped on a nail, and that's what slowed me down," she explained.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Instead of adding new roses, President Donald Trump's White House Rose Garden is growing statues.
Trump put statues of some of America's founders in the garden just off the Oval Office after he replaced its plush lawn with a white stone patio, turning the historic outdoor **** e into a look-alike of the one at his Mar-a-Lago home and private club in Palm Beach, Florida.
At least one statue was a gift. Others are on loan from people who wish to remain anonymous.
The latest addition, a bronze depiction of a seated Thomas Jefferson signing the Declaration of Independence, was a gift from George Lundeen, a sculptor from Loveland, Colorado. It joins statues already displayed there of George Washington, Alexander Hamilton and Ben Franklin. A fifth sculpture named "Freedom's Charge" is also on the patio.
The statues are part of Trump's sweeping series of White House renovations, from his gilded makeover of the Oval Office to the ballroom and helipad that the Republican president is having built on the south grounds. These projects fit into Trump's broader plan to leave his mark on downtown Washington through other construction projects, including a statue garden on federal land near the National Mall.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — The Kansas City Royals' quest to move to a new downtown ballpark cleared a major hurdle on Wednesday when the Kansas City city council approved a $600 million commitment to help make it happen.
The club announced in April that it planned to partner with Hallmark Cards on a $3 billion project to create a mixed-use development, with the new stadium as the centerpiece.
The city council's decision sets the general structure for how the city will finance its share of the investment, though there are still several more steps to navigate. The city could approve the creation of a tax increment finance district that would redirect a portion of the tax revenue in the district back into redevelopment in the area.
The Royals have pledged to pay for $760 million of the estimated costs. The club and the city will also try to secure an additional $540 million from the state government.
"This step advances what will be the largest public-private economic development project in Kansas City," Royals chairman and CEO John Sherman said in a statement. "It will bring Royals baseball to the center of our city, creating jobs, housing and year-round economic activity, advancing Kansas City's terrific momentum."

Atlanta Democratic Mayor Andre ******* ens drew criticism Thursday after telling constituent Jonathan Brimer to "shut up" when Brimer pressed the mayor on voter-approved transit and pedestrian-safety commitments.
The exchange began after ******* ens posted a video on his Instagram Friday showing his visit with Nature Gurlz, an Atlanta group that encourages Black women to spend time outdoors.
Brimer responded to the post by pressing the mayor on transportation priorities.
"Have some fun by restoring Peachtree St's pedestrian-centric design in downtown and by delivering what we voted for with extra sales taxes for MARTA by getting Beltline rail done," Brimer said.

Former Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and his pop star girlfriend, Katy Perry, filmed themselves prancing around a Montreal hardware store in their latest silly video together.
Trudeau, 54, grabbed a plunger and what looked like a dish drainboard full of different items and mugged for Perry's camera as his son Xavier Trudeau's song "Downtown" played over the store's speakers.
The 18-year-old model and pop star reposted the clip on his Instagram with the caption, "My new single 'DOWNTOWN' reaction video."
"In the Home Hardware on St-Laurent St," Trudeau says in the clip.

IndyCar's Ontario Honda Dealers Indy at Markham was seen by 913,000 viewers on Fox. The inaugural street race, which saw Andretti Global's Marcus Ericsson capture his first win in three years, outdid last year's Toronto race – which was viewed by 734,000.
The race peaked with 1.081 million viewers from 2:15 to 2:30 p.m. before Ericsson passed Romain Grosjean for the lead on Lap 86 of the 90-lap race. It was IndyCar's most-viewed Toronto-area race since 2012, when 1.129 million watched Dario Franchitti win in the Exhibition Place neighborhood.
IndyCar's first weekend at Markham faced a lot of scrutiny after the race's promoter, Green Savoree Racing Promotions, didn't have the new street course prepared for IndyCar and support series practice sessions Friday. The race moved to Markham after spending 37 of the last 40 seasons in Exhibition Place. With World Cup matches taking place at BMO Field this year and the downtown Toronto race being a rolling one-year contract, IndyCar moved to a suburb 20 miles out, where the series is set to race for another four years.
Fox is averaging 1.731 million viewers, which is up 16% from last year through 14 races (1.486 million). Aug. 9's Grand Prix of Portland received only 677,000 viewers – a 5% decrease from 2025.
IndyCar is in its second year of having all its races broadcast on Fox's network channel. Last summer, Fox acquired a one-third stake in Penske Entertainment, IndyCar's parent company. Markham marked the third straight race below 1 million viewers after eight of the first 11 races of the season surpassed 1 million (and only one was below 900,000). The Music City Grand Prix on July 20 had 775,000 viewers, although rain delay coverage following the men's FIFA World Cup final reached 2.878 million viewers.
