We’ll be having the time of our lives when this movie comes out.

Inaugural Entertainment announced Tuesday (May 12) that its Green Day-inspired comedy NIMRODS —named after the band’s 1997 Billboard 200 top 10 album Nimrod — will hit theaters this summer. Alongside the release date, Inaugural Entertainment also shared that it is partnering with with Legion M, the world’s first fan-owned entertainment company.

Directed by Lee Kirk, NIMRODS is a coming-of-age film that follows a group of three friends who embark on a cross-country road trip to Los Angeles after mistakenly believing that their band is opening up for Green Day at a New Year’s Eve show. The misadventures of the trio are inspired by Green Day’s years of living in a tour van.

The NIMRODS cast includes teen stars Mason Thames (The Black Phone; How to Train Your Dragon), Mckenna Grace (Scream 7; Regretting You), and comedian Fred Armisen. Rounding out the cast is Kylr Coffman, Ryan Foust, Ignacio Diaz- Silverio, Keen Ruffalo, Jenna Fischer, Angela Kinsey, Bobby Lee and Sean Gunn.

Green Day’s Billie Joe Armstrong, Mike Dirnt and Tre Cool are slated to produce the film along with Ryan Kroft and Michael Rapino Live Nation Entertainment, Tim Perell for Process and Jonathan Daniel.

“Green Day wouldn’t exist without the fans, and we’re excited to give those fans the opportunity to own a stake in the film as we work with the incredibly talented teams at Inaugural, Live Nation and Green Day to bring it to audiences,” said Legion M co-founders Jeff Annison and Paul Scanlan in the press statement announcing the film.

NIMRODS originally premiered at the 2025 Toronto International Film Festival under its original title New Year’s Rev. The film is set to hit theaters on Aug. 14.

Stephen Colbert brought the band back together on Monday night (May 11), welcoming fellow late-night hosts Jimmy Kimmel, Jimmy Fallon, John Oliver and Seth Meyers to The Late Show for a reunion ahead of the show’s May 21 series finale.

The gathering marked a significant moment for the group, who previously united in 2023 during the writers’ strike to launch a limited-run podcast called Strike Force Five, which raised money for their out-of-work staffs. In a similar spirit, the five hosts announced a new video episode dropping Wednesday, May 13, which will again benefit nonprofit World Central Kitchen, which provides meals for humanitarian, climate and community crises globally.

The conversation touched on the impending end of The Late Show, the future of late-night television, and the current political climate.

When Colbert asked the group whether they’d ever imagined having a job that the president of the United States would have strong feelings about, Kimmel interjected: “You know what’s even weirder? We’re doing a job that his wife has strong feelings about.” Meyers deadpanned: “Most of us have avoided that part.”

Colbert also put to the group a question he said he’d fielded repeatedly in recent months — whether they could make the case for late-night television to continue to exist. Kimmel pushed back on the premise entirely: “Why should you have to defend late night? Ryan Seacrest doesn’t get asked that question about Wheel of Fortune or whatever the hell he’s hosting.” Oliver added that he was “gonna be leaning forward” waiting for Seacrest’s answer.

The show closed with a round of “How Well Do You Know Your Fellow Late-Night Hosts?”, featuring questions written by Late Show writers. Colbert claimed the title of most-likely-to-have-made-out-with-the-most-guests, name-dropping Helen Mirren, Sally Field and Andrew Garfield among others. Fallon admitted to receiving “full tongue” from Martin Short during an SNL skit — “more than I’ve ever made out with anyone in high school.”

Colbert noted that all four of his guests had been hosting their respective shows longer than he had been at The Late Show, and that they would all continue after his departure. “You’re like the candy shell, I’m the nougat filling — and then somebody came along and just sucked it out,” he said. Kimmel offered a characteristically blunt eulogy: “It’s like when your young wife dies. It’s such a tragedy. It is ‘gone too soon.’”

CBS announced last July that The Late Show with Stephen Colbert would end after its current season in what the network described as “a purely financial” decision. The series finale airs May 21 on CBS at 11:35 p.m. ET/PT.

Warning: This article contains spoilers for the Season 24 finale of American Idol.

Hannah Harper has been named the Season 24 winner of American Idol. The Missouri country singer was crowned on Monday night (May 11) during the show’s live three-hour finale on ABC and Disney+, with Jordan McCullough finishing as runner-up and Keyla Richardson in third place.

The Top 3 opened the finale by singing judge Carrie Underwood’s “The Champion,” before each delivered a series of solo and duet performances throughout the evening.

Harper performed a duet with Lee Ann Womack on “I Hope You Dance” and closed out the competition with “String Cheese” — the original song that launched her journey on the show — before ultimately being crowned with a performance of “At the Cross (Love Ran Red)” by Chris Tomlin.

Harper went viral during her audition with “String Cheese,” an original song she wrote while dealing with postpartum depression following the birth of her youngest child. The mother of three from Willow Springs, Missouri grew up performing bluegrass and gospel music with her family band, The Harper Collective, and cited Dolly Parton, Shania Twain and Jo Dee Messina as key influences.

During her hometown visit last week, she was surprised onstage by Messina — whose song she had performed earlier in the competition. The city of Willow Springs officially declared May 6 Hannah Harper Day.

The star-studded finale featured guest mentor Alicia Keys, who performed alongside the top contestants. Judges Luke Bryan, Lionel Richie and Carrie Underwood all took the stage — the trio performing Richie’s 1986 hit “Deep River Woman” together — with Underwood also performing alongside Mötley Crüe.

Additional performances came from Brad Paisley, Blues Traveler and Gin Blossoms, Cameron Whitcomb, Clay Aiken, En Vogue, Jason Mraz, Lee Ann Womack, Nelly, Shinedown and Tori Kelly.

Harper had been a frontrunner throughout the season, with Underwood calling her one of her favorites from the moment she auditioned. American Idol Season 24 aired on ABC and streams on Hulu.

Starting during FIFA World Cup 2026, an event that she co-wrote the tournament’s official song, Shakira goes on the Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran (Women Don’t Cry Anymore) Tour throughout the United States, with nearly 20 dates starting Saturday, June 13 at Intuit Dome in Inglewood, CA. The U.S. portion of the tour ends at Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City, New Jersey on Saturday, July 25. During the fall, Shakira travels to Spain for an 11-day residency in Madrid.

Tickets to the tour first went on sale through Live Nation and Ticketmaster, while the retailer’s Face Value Exchange program is an option for fans to resell tickets.

Effie White meets Effie White when Jennifer Hudson and Jenifer Lewis sing together.

Ahead of Lewis’ appearance on the Tuesday (May 12) episode of Hudson’s eponymous talk show, Billboard has an exclusive preview clip from The Jennifer Hudson Show of the two singers delivering audience members a powerful duet.

“Now Jenifer, the last time you were here we sang a little bit, and we had a good little time,” Hudson begins. Lewis interrupts Hudson to share that when she got out of college and moved to New York, she replaced Tony Award-winner Jennifer Holliday in the workshop production of Dreamgirls before the show transferred to Broadway.

“I’m telling y’all right now, I could sing my ‘a’ off back then,” Lewis says. “But nobody could sing like Jennifer Holliday. Of course, she took it to Broadway.”

Lewis continues, “It was Jenifer Lewis that developed the role of Effie. Jennifer Holliday took it Broadway. And Jennifer Hudson did the movie. That’s a lot of ‘Jennifer’ going on.”

Lewis then says to Hudson — who won an Oscar for playing Effie White in the 2006 film adaptation — that they will sing together and that she has a suggestion for what song they should perform. Naturally she picks a Dreamgirls song: “I Am Changing.”

“I want y’all to know, and this is true, I haven’t sung this song since I was 19 years old,” Lewis, who is now 69, says to the audience as the opening notes of the track begin to play and before Hudson begins the duet. The two powerhouse vocalists go back and forth with the song before standing up from their seats and holding onto one another as their voices blend together for the epic conclusion. Lewis and Hudson end their performance with a huge embrace and exchanges of “I love you.”

“I got to sing with Jenifer Lewis, yo!” Hudson excitedly exclaims to the audience. “I’m living a dream right now.”

Watch Lewis and Hudson duet on “I Am Changing” from Dreamgirls below.

In 2025, Loop announced a partnership with McLaren Racing for a new pair of limited-edition McLaren Racing x Loop Switch 2 earplugs. The pair features the racing team’s iconic McLaren Papaya colorways with Loop’s sleek and cozy design. Cut to a year later, after announcement and release, I put the earplugs through their paces during the Miami Grand Prix.

Taking place during race weekend at the Miami International Autodrome in Miami Gardens, the weather was hot and sticky with the very humid and sweltering 87-degree South Florida heat beating down on those who couldn’t find shade, like myself. While I was very sweaty, as I baked in the sun, my ears, however, certainly looked cool and stylish with the McLaren Racing x Loop Switch 2 earplugs I used during sprints and qualifying rounds leading up to race day.

The earplugs fit snuggly and securely in my ears, while the roar of engines were reduced to a dull rumble, so I could pay attention to the race instead of being annoyed with the cheers from the crowd. It was a surprise to hear the difference between having the earplug in my ears compared to when they were removed. Experiencing the dampened sounds to the actual sounds of the track was like going from soft and gentle to harsh and abrasive at a moment’s notice.

To customize my race day experience, the McLaren Racing x Loop Switch 2 earplugs feature three modes of noise-reduction — quiet, experience and engage — which toggle back and forth with a dial on each earplug. This was ideal when I wanted to focus in on the race itself, but then toggle the noise reduction lower to talk with my friends sitting next to me about a driver attacking for better position.

The McLaren Racing x Loop Switch 2 earplugs were very comfortable to wear throughout the entire race weekend. Usually, I find most earplugs either stiff with hard plastic or too squishy with foam, but the McLaren Racing x Loop Switch 2 earplugs feel very comfortable and lightweight for all-day use. In fact, the earplugs come with four interchangeable eartips for a better seal and comfort, depending on your ear sizes.

And as a bonus, you could also pick up the Loop Link, which makes it possible to wear the earplugs like a fashionable necklace with a very clever magnet system. This way you don’t have to dig into your pockets or purse to find the earplugs when you need them during a loud event. Instead, you place them in your ears to block out noise when its loud, but then let them dangle around your neck for easy access when its not.

Otherwise, the earplugs come in a heavy-duty hard plastic clamshell case with Loop and McLaren Racing branding. The case is small, compact and durable, but could get lost if you have a lot of other things in your pockets or purse.

Starting at $64.95, the McLaren Racing x Loop Switch 2 sets the bar for premium earplugs, thanks to their custom fit, stylish looks, unique design and overall effectiveness for noise reduction in loud atmospheres, like motorsports events, concerts and music festivals.

Saturday Night Live‘s Weekend Update took aim at Tucker Carlson on Saturday night (May 9), with the former Fox News host portrayed by featured player Jeremy Culhane raging about the Met Gala, slamming the Michael biopic and closing with his most offensive hot take yet.

Appearing alongside co-hosts Colin Jost and Michael Che, the sketch version of Carlson opened by unloading on the annual fashion fundraiser at the Metropolitan Museum of Art.

“Let’s all prance around in our $100,000 clown outfits and watch the American empire crumble,” he said. “What are we doing? Come on.”

When Jost noted that Carlson clearly didn’t enjoy the event, the character replied sarcastically: “Oh no, I loved it. Because when I go to a museum, I don’t want to learn about history. No, I want to look at The Rock in a skirt. Do you smell what the Rock is cooking? Because I do — it’s gender confusion.” He then turned his attention to Madonna: “She named herself after the Virgin Mary. And you want to know my favorite thing about the mother of Jesus Christ? The big pirate ship on her head.” On Heidi Klum’s veiled statue look: “The left has finally gotten what they’ve always wanted. They put the Statue of Liberty in a burqa.”

Jost pointed out that Carlson actually lives in Maine, which sent the character into a conspiracy tangent about the state’s silent “E.” “What does the E even stand for? Oh, I know: ‘Euphoria.’ And no, I’m not talking about the feeling I get when I press one for English.”

Culhane-as-Carlson then turned to the Michael biopic — taking issue not with the film’s handling of Michael Jackson’s alleged crimes, but with something else entirely.

“The movie ends in 1988, so obviously they avoided something serious that needs to be acknowledged,” he said. “The part of Michael Jackson’s life no one wants to talk about anymore. The part when he was a white man. Sorry, kids, Michael Jackson doesn’t get to live a beautiful white life anymore. ‘Shamona’ — more like ‘shame on ya.’” The segment closed with Carlson’s take on A$AP Rocky’s Met Gala look: “He was on the red carpet wearing my least favorite color, African American.”

Saturday’s episode was hosted by Matt Damon, with Noah Kahan serving as musical guest. SNL Season 51 closes next week with Will Ferrell hosting and Paul McCartney as musical guest.

Noah Kahan made his return to Saturday Night Live on Saturday night (May 9), joining host Matt Damon as musical guest for Season 51’s penultimate episode — his second SNL appearance since his breakthrough 2023 debut.

The Grammy-nominated singer-songwriter appeared on the show two weeks after releasing The Great Divide, his fourth studio album, out April 24 via Mercury Records, performing album tracks “Doors” and “The Great Divide” for the Studio 8H audience.

The album debuted at No. 1 in both the United States and United Kingdom, with the former marking the best first-week sales for a rock album in over a decade. Produced by Gabe Simon and Aaron Dessner of The National, the 17-track record has been widely praised as a significant artistic step forward for Kahan.

In the lead-up to Saturday’s appearance, Kahan delivered a stripped-back Tiny Desk performance featuring album tracks “American Cars,” “The Great Divide” and “Paid Time Off,” alongside Stick Season fan favorite “Orange Juice.”

He also appeared on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon to discuss the album, and attended this year’s TIME100 Gala after being named among TIME’s 100 Most Influential People of 2026, where he was honored by Marcus Mumford, who wrote: “Musically, he brings us closer to our humanity in the same way some of the great ’60s folk songwriters did: pairing lyrics set in a particular space and time with traditionally infused pop melodies like Bob Dylan and Joni Mitchell at their best.”

Saturday’s episode also marked a milestone for host Matt Damon, who returned to Studio 8H for his third hosting stint. Promotional materials leaned into the shared New England heritage of both artists — Damon hailing from Boston, Kahan from Strafford, Vermont.

Kahan also recently launched Noah Kahan: Out of Body, a Netflix documentary that premiered at SXSW 2026, where it received the 24 Beats Per Second Audience Award. The film follows Kahan’s rise to stadium-level stardom and addresses his ongoing struggles with anxiety and body dysmorphia.

Kahan’s first SNL appearance in December 2023 saw him perform “Dial Drunk” and “Stick Season” from his breakthrough album We’ll All Be Here Forever. That record produced the multi-platinum hit “Stick Season,” which peaked at No. 18 on the Billboard Hot 100 and earned Kahan two Grammy nominations. His Great Divide World Tour includes four record-breaking sold-out nights at Boston’s Fenway Park — making him the first artist in history to play and sell out four shows at the venue — as well as additional arena dates in London, Dublin, Sydney, Melbourne and Auckland.

SNL Season 51 closes next week with Will Ferrell hosting and Paul McCartney as musical guest.

Riley Green is heading to The Voice.

The 37-year-old country star announced on social media Saturday (May 9) that he will join as a coach for season 30 of the NBC music competition series.

Green shared the news ahead of his concert at Ameris Bank Amphitheatre in Alpharetta, Georgia, on Saturday. He is currently on his Cowboy As It Gets arena tour across North America.

“I guess y’all can start calling me coach… see ya this fall. @nbcthevoice #thevoice,” Green captioned the announcement on his Instagram account.

The “Worst Way” singer joins previously announced coaches Kelly Clarkson and Adam Levine for the upcoming season of The Voice, which airs this fall on NBC and streams on Peacock. Levine’s contestant, singer Alexia Jayy, was crowned the winner of Season 29 in April 2025.

Green’s announcement post features a clip of him listening to voicemail on his phone left by Clarkson, who politely greets him using her full name and addresses him by his.

“That is officially the last time we’re gonna use each other’s full name ’cause we’re not tools,” she says in the message, which has her welcoming him to The Voice. “But we’ve never officially met. I’m super stoked to coach alongside you.”

Clarkson also kindly tells him she’s a “superfan” in the message — a “big fan, but needless to say, fan and all it’s a competition.” So she’s sent him a special gift: his personalized The Voice coach chair, adorned with duck calls. “I think you’re gonna need the practice because Kelly’s gonna whoop that ass,” she quips.

Comments on Green’s post include a friendly congrats from host Carson Daly, who wrote, “Welcome to the fam!! Can’t wait to hang! You drink right? Pls God say yes.”

Green has been on a winning streak of his own. The singer-songwriter has scored four No. 1 hits on Billboard‘s Country Airplay chart, including “Worst Way” and the Ella Langley collaboration “You Look Like You Love Me,” and has earned multiple CMA and ACM Awards to date.

He is also set to perform at the upcoming ACM Awards on May 17, where he is nominated for male artist of the year, album of the year [for Don’t Mind If I Do (Deluxe)], artist-songwriter of the year, and music event of the year for “Don’t Mind If I Do,” featuring Langley.

In April, Green made his acting debut on the CBS series Marshals, in which he plays Garrett, a former Navy SEAL who arrives in Montana while carrying personal demons he needs to put to rest.
