In a first for the Kennedy Center Honors, the annual event will not take place at the John F. Kennedy Memorial Center for the Performing Arts this year. Instead, the 49th Kennedy Center Honors will be held at Capital One Arena in downtown Washington, DC, a venue with a significantly larger capacity of 20,000. Deadline reports that the ceremony will happen off-site on December 7, with the event's broadcasting partner to be announced later, according to a center spokesperson. The venue change isn't especially surprising. The center has been the subject of dispute for the past couple of years thanks to self-appointed chairman Donald Trump, who threatened to demolish the building unless his name was added to the exterior. His name was added in December 2025, and the addition has been consistently challenged in court for legal reasons. After a judge ruled that he couldn't just slap his name on the front of it, the waterfront center's main building was abruptly closed to the public because of purported structural damage and safety concerns that prompted renovations.
At the 2025 event, which was hosted by Trump, George Strait, KISS, Michael Crawford, Gloria Gaynor, and Sylvester Stallone were honored for their lifetime achievements in the arts. The CBS broadcast of the awards hit an all-time low in ratings, according to TheWrap. The honorees for this year's Kennedy Center Honors haven't been announced yet. Maybe Tom Cruise, who reportedly declined the honor last year due to scheduling conflicts, might get a second chance this time.

On a balmy July evening in New York City, I was lucky enough to be wandering around Greenwich Village with a coffee in hand, down a narrow street to the Minetta Lane (now Audible) Theatre to see Gloria Steinem speak.
Those two shows on July 14 and 16 turned out to be her last major public event appearances before her passing on Sept. 2. She spoke on a range of topics, and the program will soon be released as an Audible Original on Sept. 17. Steinem recounted her early career in journalism and was asked about her ex-lovers, but what I walked away with was her enduring messages on the importance of being understood, community and togetherness. "We acquire a certain group of people who understand us and that's what keeps us going," she imparted.

Gloria Steinem remained steadfast in her desire not to have any children until the very end.
The American journalist and social activist was a nationally recognized leader of second-wave feminism in the United States in the late 60s and early 70s after she published her famous article "After Black Power, Women's Liberation."
Steinem died on Wednesday at the age of 92. While the cause of her death is not known, she reportedly passed away peacefully in her New York home.

In 2025, the activist shared that although she admired women who had children, especially those who were doing it by themselves, she was comfortable with her own choice to be childless.

Gloria Steinem, who passed away at the age of 92 on September 2, 2026, was many things: co-founder of "Ms." magazine, second-wave feminist icon, and even stepmother to Christian Bale. (Who knew?) She was also, throughout her life, a serious fashionista. Some may believe such a passion is necessarily at odds with a dedication to feminism, and Steinem certainly had many critics who questioned her focus on fashion, but she viewed her style as an extension of her activism, not a conflict of interest. Gloria Steinem's beauty philosophy went hand-in-hand with her feminist ideals, and so did her approach to fashion.

"Fashion in the past meant conforming and losing oneself," Steinem pointed out in the 2011 HBO documentary about her life, "Gloria: In Her Own Words," but "fashion in the present means being unique and finding oneself," she continued. For Steinem, that came to mean a "power outfit" (above) that often included a fitted Henley shirt, flared jeans, a low-slung belt, funky jewelry, and a rotating collection of political badges and ******* ons, topped with her iconic aviator glasses and highlighted hair teased to the sky. There was a purpose to her style beyond expression and confidence, however. "She made it okay to be attractive and to be a feminist," friend and designer Diane von Furstenberg told Glamour.

Jane Fonda and Barbra Streisand have led tributes to the late Gloria Steinem.
The trailblazing feminist activist died at her home in New York City on Wednesday. She was 92.
Following the sad news, Fonda issued a heartfelt statement via Instagram.
"Gloria, in her graceful, kind, and deeply intelligent way, changed the world we live in," she wrote. "(Gloria) had a clever, often funny way to say just what was needed to surface feelings and ideas about where we belonged, what our inchoate yearnings meant, whether power was a word that women could and should embrace for ourselves, and how different power looked when held in men's hands alone."
While her own message, Barbra recalled how she was "deeply impressed" by Gloria from the moment they met in the 1970s.
"What made her so extraordinary was not only the strength of her convictions, but the humanity and grace with which she expressed them," the legendary singer-actress mused. "Gloria once said, 'When unique voices are united in a common cause, they make history.' Her voice changed history, but her greatest legacy may be the countless voices she helped others find - and gave the courage to use."

One of the strangest stories in NBA history involved a rumor about LeBron James getting livid about teammate Delonte West having a relationship with his mother in the late 2000s. The rumor mill of the time led to stories that LeBron partially left the Cleveland Cavaliers in free agency for the Miami Heat due to his anger over that situation. West and James have never been publicly linked since that time frame.
Despite never confirming the relationship, West randomly referenced still speaking with Gloria James via a Kick stream:
"A lot of those guys that I play with, LeBron, he's my 'him', and you know his family…called my mom all the time to make sure I'm okay. Miss James, Miss Gloria, she calls my mom, makes sure she's still the same. 'Tell your son I see him. He better get it together. Don't make me come check on him.'"
West framed the relationship as being wholesome and Gloria providing a motherly caring vibe in his life from afar. However, this in itself creates more questions about if a relationship truly happened all those years ago. Not even LeBron's close friends like Dwyane Wade or Chris Paul are casually name dropping his mother in interviews.
The end of the Cavaliers tenure confirmed that James was unhappy with something. Most ****** umed it was purely basketball since Cleveland failed to win a ****** le in that timeline and often fell short vs LeBron's rival Boston Celtics team of the era.

Hundreds of thousands of people in Puerto Rico's capital and surrounding communities woke up without running water as a massive rationing measure took effect Friday. It comes amid a severe drought on top of shortages due to infrastructure issues on the island.
"It's brutal," San Juan resident Gloriany Baba told CBS News in Spanish. "It's unbelievable to live through this today."
Residents were seen filling up jugs and buckets with water ahead of the rationing, which affects more than 180,000 customer accounts — meaning households and businesses — in San Juan and six other municipalities. Customers were divided into two groups that will alternate not having water for at least 48 hours at a time.
Government officials have not said when the rationing will end and have warned the outages could be extended to 72 hours at a time.
In San Juan, July was the driest month in more than 120 years and the second hottest on record. According to the U.S. Drought Monitor, about 36% of Puerto Rico is facing a severe drought, and another 32% is in a moderate drought.

Princess Diana's White House dance with John Travolta reportedly became a famous photograph. The People's Princess was 24 when she spun with the Hollywood star at Reagan's 1985 state dinner. A new source revisited the night and claimed the connection lasted beyond the ballroom. The report pointed to her love of dance. It also included claims that she later corresponded with him from Britain. That frame made the dance feel like a longer story.
According to a RadarOnline report, the dance took place at the White House in 1985. The dinner was hosted by President Ronald Reagan and First Lady Nancy Reagan. Guests included Clint Eastwood, Tom Selleck, Gloria Vanderbilt, and Travolta.
The actor had become famous through "Saturday Night Fever" and "Grease." Travolta later called the moment "a highlight of being in the United States." He also said it was Diana's "favorite moment," according to the report.
Meanwhile, Travolta said the dance was arranged quietly by Nancy Reagan. He recalled being told the princess wanted to dance, but he had to lead. Travolta said, "At midnight, I had to tap her on the shoulder."
He then asked, "Would you care to dance?" The actor said she dipped her head "in that Lady Diana way." Then, "we were off for 15 minutes dancing." He later described it as "like a dream."

Last week, news broke that Amy Griffin, author of the 2025 New York Times bestselling memoir "The Tell," had filed a lawsuit against the anonymous former classmate who, last March, sued Griffin, alleging that several of the anecdotes in the book — which details a horrific experience of childhood rape and ****** ual abuse — were not Griffin's, but her own. Griffin's countersuit claims that the classmate's lawsuit characterizes her as "a fraud and a thief." This isn't the kind of delicious, schadenfreude-dipped publishing-world drama about a bad art friend that other writers love to deconstruct in group texts. It's a dispiriting legal battle in which two women who likely suffered profound ****** ual trauma are publicly battling, one with a focus on preserving both her reputation and her business interests, and the other with almost nothing on her side, including, thanks to Griffin's countersuit, anonymity.
"The Tell" is about a woman who is by every possible measure successful, trying to understand what unseen force is holding her apart from an otherwise beautiful life — impacting her marriage, alienating her children and causing panic attacks. On the encouragement of her equally successful, equally blessed husband, Griffin agrees to try therapeutic MDMA. A former star student and long-distance runner from a prominent family in Amarillo, Texas, Griffin goes into her first session with a competitor's single-minded determination to, as she writes, "get to the finish line."
It takes almost no time for the drug to unearth memories of habitual ****** ual abuse by a teacher at her middle school that began when Griffin was 12 and continued until she was 16. Her confidence in the memories she recovers ("My body knew what had happened to me. The way I'd shake when I'd tell my story; the way my eyes welled up with tears at the mention of Texas") sets her on a relentless trajectory of seeking legal and emotional redress.

I listened to "The Tell" on audiobook knowing very little about it. I didn't know that Griffin is married to a billionaire former hedge-fund founder, or that she's on the Metropolitan Museum of Art's Board of Trustees, or that her own venture-capital firm, G9, has made her a billionaire in her own right. I didn't see the seals of approval from America's trio of book-club heavies — Oprah Winfrey, Reese Witherspoon, and Jenna Bush Hager — on its cover. I didn't read the glowing blurbs for a first-time author from Gwyneth Paltrow, Gloria Steinem, Chanel Miller and Mariska Hargitay. I didn't know that the book wasn't written so much as it was built by a prominent ghostwriter, a cadre of well-placed friends and colleagues, and a publishing industry that's made billions of dollars from trauma memoirs by women.
