The world mourned the loss of Patrick Stewart on Thursday as the iconic actor passed at the age of 86 after a battle with Alzheimer's Disease and Lewy Body Dementia. Stewart was a prolific stage actor as well as taking on massive roles in both television and film. He played Captain Jean-Luc Picard for 176 episodes of Star Trek: The Next Generation, as well as starring as Professor X in eight X-Men movies -- including post-credit scenes and cameos -- across both the Fox and Marvel Cinematic universes (with the ninth coming this December with Avengers: Doomsday).
But one of the things that made Stewart so special and beloved was his willingness to do something goofy or funny. Such was the case in a 2024 Super Bowl commercial for Paramount+. Not only did Stewart star alongside well-known CBS and Paramount+ characters like Survivor's Jeff Probst, Knuckles from Sonic the Hedgehog, daytime host Drew Barrymore and Miami Dolphins QB Tua Tagovailoa.

It's a truly ridiculous commercial that features Stewart trying to convince Tagovailoa to throw Arnold of Hey Arnold! to the top of a mountain. "Not built for the moment, I see," Stewart delivers as if he's on stage in the West End.

NEW YORK (AP) — When Jake Bauers gloved the final out of the Milwaukee Brewers' first World Series triumph, it might have ended the last Major League Baseball game for a long time.
While just 148 days remain until the scheduled start of the 2027 season on March 24, owners have proposed a salary cap for the first time since their 1994 plan led to a 7 1/2-month strike and the first cancellation of the World Series in 90 years.
"Obviously, you'd love to see the game be in a good spot and continue to be played," Milwaukee captain Christian Yelich said Wednesday a few hours before his team finished a five-game victory over Tampa Bay. "I think the game's in a great spot right now with a lot of people tuned in, a lot of popularity, a lot of great players out there. It would obviously be a shame if we miss time, but we'll have plenty of time this offseason to talk about it."
Baseball's five-year labor contract, agreed to in March 2022 on the 99th day of a management lockout, expires on Dec. 1. MLB is likely to lock out players again as soon as the deal expires.
That could create another free-agent frenzy ahead of the expiration. On Dec. 1, 2021, clubs committed to $1.4 billion in salaries that included nine-figure contracts for Javier Báez, Byron Buxton, Kevin Gausman, Max Scherzer, Corey Seager and Marcus Semien.

From time to time, it can feel like a lot of our most beloved celebrities and historical figures are dying at the same time. It has happened so often that now people expect famous people to die in threes, even when there's no reason for that.
And while all deaths are equally sad, it's true that some of them get way more media coverage and reactions, especially in the modern internet era. Looking through history, you might notice that some figures didn't get the homages they deserved only because another, more relevant figure happened to die on the same day.
So, here are some historical deaths overshadowed by other, more important deaths.

AA Milne's first Pooh book was published a century ago in October 1926. Generations of children loved it, but its inspiration, the author's own son, told the BBC that he took to "running away when people bring up the subject".
"Pooh, promise you won't forget about me, ever. Not even when I'm a hundred." This is the plaintive cry made by Christopher Robin to his teddy bear, Winnie-the-Pooh, in the final chapter of The House in Pooh Corner.
British novelist and playwright AA Milne needn't have worried. The first Winnie-the-Book was published 100 years ago in October 1926, and introduced a cast of characters modelled on the author's son and the soft toys he played with: lovably dim Pooh Bear, nervy Piglet, hyperactive Tigger, pessimistic Eeyore. Far from being forgotten, in the century since then the characters have taken on a life far beyond the parameters of their idyllic home, the Hundred Acre Wood.
BBC Radio 4, Desert Island Discs: Christopher Milne, 13/11/1976
From 1966, they became the subject of animated and live-action Disney films, in what is now one of the highest-grossing media franchises of all time. Pooh Bear has even courted controversy in Poland for being "inappropriate", sparked memes mocking the Chinese president Xi Jinping, and prompted tongue-in-cheek pop-culture theories in which the residents of the Hundred Acre Wood have been "diagnosed" with different psychological conditions.

Mikel Arteta hailed "special character" Noni Madueke after he fired ***** nal to a 1-0 win at Nottingham Forest.
Madueke came on at half-time and his deflected effort 10 minutes from time was enough for the three points at the City Ground.
The 24-year-old was left out of Thomas Tuchel's most recent England squad but has produced an impressive response.
"Noni, look at me, a smile on my face because he's a special character," Arteta said. "He's someone very much loved in and around the dressing room, the way he connects, talks to people.
"He's just a special guy. I think I saw an interview where they were asking a few of our players, 'Who would you call if you have a problem?' And some of them said Noni, which I was surprised (by).

Phylicia Rashad and Debbie Allen's story reveals how colorism, comparison, and beauty standards can shape Black women's self-image from childhood into adulthood.
For generations of Black communities, actress Phylicia Rashad has been seen as one of the beacons of grace and beauty. However, in a recent conversation on the "IMO Podcast" hosted by Michelle Obama and Craig Robinson, Rashad revealed that she once did not see herself as beautiful in comparison to her sister Debbie Allen.
"I think if there was competition that I felt, I always felt that Debbie was beautiful and that I was not," Rashad shared. "I don't remember what led to the conversation, but I said to Deborah that I had always wanted to be beautiful, like her, and she looked at me, she said, 'But you're the beautiful one, you're the one. I was always trying to be beautiful like you,' and then we broke down and started crying."
"We grew up with that foolishness, that colorism, foolishness that brown paper bag [test] foolishness," Allen interjected. "I remember one time Phylicia loved chocolate milk, and we were drinking chocolate milk, and my uncle said to her, 'Girl, you better drink all the white milk you can.' That was so ugly."
"I think that's why Phylicia felt, but Phylicia looked more like Mama than me. And I always wished that I was pretty like her," Allen added.

Just four months before the second anniversary of Paquita la del Barrio's death, tragedy has struck her family once again. On Wednesday, it was confirmed that Martha Elena Martínez Viveros passed away at the age of 47, the singer's adopted daughter.

The confirmation of her passing came through Paquita la del Barrio's official account. "Today, mother and daughter are reunited in heaven," reads a memorial note full of memories and respect.

According to local reports, Paquito, the singer's former manager, shared details of what happened: "She was fine, and from one moment to the next she was gone, at such a young age," he said, explaining that it was due to cardiac arrest, something shocking, as he was not aware of any health issues. In recent days, Martha had traveled to Peru with her granddaughters, where she enjoyed a wonderful family trip. Martha Elena was found dead in Veracruz, where the local government of Alto Lucero posted a tribute in her honor, offering condolences to the Martínez Viveros family and recognizing the profound mark that the singer and her daughter left on the community.

A new report suggests that Prince Harry's UK return is complicated by a single issue involving Meghan Markle. The news comes as the **** ss reportedly misses her old life and loved ones in California. After six years in California, the Sussexes moved back to the UK in August 2026 with their children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet.
Since returning to Britain, Prince Harry is reportedly carrying the major burden of making sure Meghan Markle feels at home. Per the Daily Express, sources are claiming that ensuring his wife settles in comfortably has become the Duke's biggest concern.
The "Suits" actress has previously spoken openly about her difficult time living in the UK. The couple even went on to make claims about the royal family in interviews and in Harry's memoir, "Spare."
Weighing in on her current situation, royal expert Duncan Larcombe suggests that Markle may now be going through what her husband experienced after relocating to the U.S. In conversation with New Magazine, he said, "Meghan's bound to feel homesick and be missing California and her friends, especially her mum Doria, because she has been the one constant in Meghan's life over the past few years. She'll feel the same way that Harry felt when he was out there."
Larcombe further explained that Prince Harry is under considerable pressure to help his wife settle in this time around. He reportedly wants her to genuinely connect with the UK, which did not happen during their previous stay. The royal commentator noted that the Duke will be keen for her to see Britain as a true home, which will be a significant undertaking.

Travis Kelce shared a hilarious reaction after seeing a Halloween display featuring hay versions of himself and Taylor Swift.
On the latest episode of the New Heights podcast, Travis and his brother, Jason Kelce, looked at fan-submitted Halloween decorations. One display showed "Haylor Swift" wearing a sparkling outfit inspired by the Eras Tour alongside "Travis Kelc-Hay" in a Kansas City Chiefs uniform.
After seeing the display, Travis jokingly asked, "Why'd they have to make my wife cross-eyed?" The eight-word remark quickly became one of the episode's funniest moments.

HUNTSVILLE, Texas (AP) — A Texas man who fatally shot a convenience store clerk was put to death Wednesday evening, becoming the 30th person executed in the U.S. this year and the first since Tennessee's failed attempt to administer a lethal injection to Christa Pike a week ago.
Jamaal Howard, 46, was **** ounced dead at 8:03 p.m. after receiving a fatal dose of pentobarbital at the state prison in Huntsville. He was convicted of killing of Vickie Swartout, 42, in a 2000 store robbery caught on surveillance video.
Asked by the warden if he had a final statement, Howard apologized profusely to some members of his victim's family, who watched through a window just feet from the death chamber.
"I wish that you accept my apology and I wish for your forgiveness," he said, shortly before the injection got underway. "I'm sorry for what happened. I wish you can learn to forgive me one of these days."
He also thanked his friends and family and said he loved them, adding he was "in a good state of mind to find peace and the Lord, so I thank y'all." He concluded with: "Hey, enjoy life, and peace to y'all."

Spooky season is here, which means Kings Island's Halloween Haunt is in full swing, and a famous Cincinnati native stopped by for all the thrills and chills.
Nick Lachey, the 98 Degrees boy band member and "Love Is Blind" host, shared the family outing to Kings Island in an Oct. 6 Instagram post. Lachey, along with his three children and wife Vanessa, with whom he co-hosts "Love Is Blind," posed in front of one of the park's most beloved (or hated) rides, depending on whom you ask: The Beast.
"Beast Mode activated! Kicked off Fall at Kings Island. Kids loved riding The Beast, the longest wooden rollercoaster in the world! Kings Island … you still got it!" he wrote.
Lachey's recent Kings Island visit was a full-circle moment as the singer, who attended the School for Creative & Performing Arts in Over-the-Rhine, also worked at Kings Island as a teenager. The 98 Degrees member was in a barbershop quartet.
"I started off singing a cappella barbershop music, walking around the park and singing to guests," Lachey said in a 2013 interview, per The Hollywood Reporter.

It's been an extremely busy period for Earl Charles Spencer, the brother of the late Princess Diana, who has been non-stop in promoting his very personal book, Swan Song: Diana, My Sister. Following his time stateside to talk about the publication, he is back at his beloved Althorp estate and he's shared a poignant photo from the place where his sister is buried.
The Earl took to his personal Instagram Stories to share an image that he took during a moment of quiet contemplation from the edge of the Round Oval Lake, partially showing the central island where Diana is laid to rest. Pleased with his photography skills, Charles captioned the picture: "My luckiest capture of the Round Oval Lake, Althorp." The striking photo showed the sun piercing through the scattered clouds on a crisp autumn day as the mist hung around the base of the trees.
The lake where Diana is buried
Diana's final resting place was decided upon by Charles himself, following her tragic 1997 death. Originally, it was planned that she would be laid to rest in the Spencer family vault at the local church but security concerns ruled that out. Instead, the island on the lake was chosen and the bridge removed to restrict access even further. Now, family members paying their respects have to board a small boat to get to her exact gravesite.

Jennifer Aniston is reportedly taking a step back from marriage plans with boyfriend Jim Curtis despite being deeply invested in their relationship. The Friends star, who has gone through two divorces, is said to feel that she and Curtis still have some things to work through before considering another wedding.
Aniston recently showed just how supportive she remains of Curtis as he promoted his latest book, The Book of Possibility. After Curtis appeared at an event in New York City earlier in September, Aniston posted about his book on Instagram on September 14. She shared a photo of the book cover and wrote, "I love this book." She followed it with a photo of herself and Curtis posing together. The actress captioned the loved-up image, "And I love this man."
Aniston and Curtis made their relationship public in July 2025 after their friendship reportedly developed into a romance. The couple had known each other for months before taking their relationship to the next level. However, a source told RadarOnline.com that Aniston does not want to rush into marriage again. "Jen loves Jim, but she doesn't want to rush down the aisle any time soon," the source claimed.
While Aniston has largely kept her relationship private, Curtis has spoken openly about it while promoting his new book. During an appearance on The Jamie Kern Lima Show on September 8, Curtis praised Aniston and called himself "blessed" to be with someone who is "so open-hearted." His openness has reportedly caused some tension because Aniston prefers to keep her personal life private.
For now, Aniston's friends are reportedly relieved that she has no plans to walk down the aisle again soon. "The good news for Jen's friends is that she's pumped the brakes on marrying Jim," the source said. The decision does not appear to mean Aniston has ended the relationship. Instead, she reportedly remains deeply in love with Curtis while taking more time to decide where their future is headed. "She loves him dearly, but they definitely have some things to figure out," the source added.

Relatives of some soldiers killed in the Iran war joined dozens of Gold Star families from prior U.S. conflicts Tuesday at the White House, where President Donald Trump offered words of comfort and candles were lit for the fallen service members, according to one of the widows who attended.
Not all families of the six soldiers killed March 1 in the deadliest attack of the Iran war opted to attend. Troops who survived the attack have raised questions about why they were stationed at a site that didn't have sufficient air protection and was viewed as a likely target.
Michelle Tietjens and other relatives have said they are angry the Army still hasn't answered questions over whether enough was done to protect their loved ones. But Tietjens and her teenage son traveled from Bellevue, Nebraska, to attend the event to honor her husband, Master Sgt. Noah Tietjens, who was killed along with five other Army Reserve soldiers by an Iranian drone strike in Kuwait.
"I decided to go originally because my son wanted to go," Tietjens said. "But then I wanted to see what it was about as well. I wanted to also go to support my husband's memory."
She said they toured several rooms of the White House and took a photo with Trump and the first lady, Melania Trump. Tietjens said the president told them that he wished he had her teenage son's full head of curly hair.

Christy Carlson Romano knows how to play a role, but finding herself has proven to be her greatest performance.
The Emmy-nominated actress and Disney Channel alum looks back on her turbulent upbringing in the spotlight in her debut memoir "Once Upon a Trainwreck: The Fall and Rise of a Child Star" (out now).
Romano, alongside fellow Disney darlings Shia LaBeouf, Hilary Duff and Raven-Symoné, epitomized teen stardom in the early 2000s, appearing in beloved TV shows and movies such as "Even Stevens," "Cadet Kelly" and "Kim Possible."
Despite her success, Romano often felt adrift in young Hollywood, intimidated by the upper echelons of prime-time dramas and glossy magazine covers.
"Looking back, I was really just trying to fit into whatever opportunity was thrown my way, rather than kind of create my own identity so that opportunities would find me in a different light," Romano tells USA TODAY. "I didn't have a stylist or a publicist, and I didn't really invest in myself the way that maybe I should have, to get to know exactly who I wanted to be, even if [that] changed over the years."
