There’s something very profound about this… Gene Hackman is over 70 years old here—wealthy, famous, with every award an actor could want. How many macho characters has he played? Some might not expect him to be so fragile about something that happened decades ago. And yet, he still gets...

Why did Two and a Half Men star Angus T. Jones call the show “filth” before leaving it in 2012? Since then, he’s left Hollywood, choosing to focus on his faith and community work. Here's the full story 👇

French cruise ships didn’t enforce MPAA ratings in their theaters back then, so I got to watch “The French Connection” as a pre-teen the year after it was released. Loved Gene Hackman in everything ever since. His passing leaves a hole, like Peter O’Toole’s did. Godspeed.

A very wise therapist said: there are some things you never get over. And those things typically happened in childhood or adolescence.

Amen. Divorce and abandonment leave permanent scars, and if not dealt with as an adult, long term poor choices for coping. Usually self-medicating.

What makes Barry Gibb so captivating after all these years? It’s easy to say “the voice” or “the songs,” but I think there is something deeper. Barry’s falsetto has always sounded unusual—high, bright, slightly fragile, but never weak. There is something almost vulnerable in it. He can sing about love without making it sound like a performance of love. You hear longing, tenderness, regret, and sometimes even a little fear. That is difficult to fake. But his greatest strength may be that he understands what a song is supposed to feel like. He doesn’t seem obsessed with showing us how well he can sing. He knows when to hold back, when to let a phrase breathe, and when to let the melody carry the emotion. His best performances feel less like someone demonstrating a talent and more like someone telling you something he has lived through. Then there is the songwriting. The Bee Gees wrote about things that sound almost too ordinary to become timeless: love, loneliness, desire, heartbreak, hope. Yet they had a rare ability to take those simple human feelings and turn them into melodies people could remember decades later. That kind of songwriting is much harder than it looks. And there is another quality I admire in Barry now: he doesn’t seem desperate to outrun his age. He doesn’t need to pretend he is still the man he was decades ago. Time has changed his face. His voice has changed. The world around him has changed. But when he sings those old songs, the years don’t disappear. They become part of the performance. That gives the songs a different kind of weight. A young singer can sing about love with excitement. Someone who has lived through decades of love, loss, success, grief, and change can sing the same words with memory. That difference matters. Perhaps that is why Barry Gibb still has such a powerful presence. He doesn’t simply carry his own music onto the stage. He carries other people’s memories with him. For someone in the audience, a Bee Gees song might bring back a first love, a long-gone friend, a wedding, a dance, a summer, or a time in life that can never return. Barry sings the song. But the listener remembers their life. And maybe that is the real measure of an artist’s longevity. Not staying young. Not staying fashionable. But creating something that grows older with you—and somehow still feels like it understands you.

Stephen A. Smith says watching Chris Cuomo admit Anthony Fauci “looked like he had something to hide” told him everything he needed to know. Cuomo immediately tried to walk it back, but Smith reminded him that Fauci wasn’t just some random public official pleading the Fifth: “He was the FACE of science! We TRUSTED him!” SMITH: “And I heard you say something I never heard you say before, last night, watching you…” “Chris Cuomo said, ‘Dr. Fauci did look like he has something to hide.’ You never said that before.” CUOMO: “You plead the Fifth?” “Anybody who pleads the Fifth seems like they’re trying to hide something.” SMITH: “Yeah, yeah. That’s fair. But what I’m saying is considering your profound respect for this man, your knowledge of his record, his resume, his history.” “I know how deep it hit you for that to come from YOU!” “And what I’m saying is even though you say that about anybody pleading the Fifth, go watch yourself talking about somebody pleading the Fifth, and then re-air how you looked last night when you said that about Fauci.” “He’s different!” “And it’s emblematic of what I said about him just now in terms of how Americans looked at him a few years ago.” “He was the gospel. He was the FACE of science. We TRUSTED him!” “That is not who we want to see pleading the Fifth, not him!” “And by the way, Chris, if he stood up and said…look man, I thought this, I made a mistake, it’s not an exact science. I messed up…” “What could we say? We could criticize him, but that’s about it. We can’t do anything else. What could we say?” “But that’s not what happened.”

🚨 BILLY BOB THORNTON SAYS HIS EXTREME OCD CONTROLS HIS EVERY THOUGHT — WHAT HE ADMITS NEXT HAS PEOPLE SHOCKED On Howie Mandel Does Stuff, actor Billy Bob Thornton just described what he says OCD actually feels like… and it’s nothing like people think. Not being “organized.” Not liking things a certain way. He says it’s mentally and emotionally exhausting... something that takes real brain power and energy all day long. • “It takes real brain power and energy to do this all day” • Says intrusive thoughts don’t leave until he completes them • Describes constant “rituals” his mind forces him to finish • Says even mid-conversation, he has to go back and complete thoughts And when that happens? He says it doesn’t feel optional. It feels like something in his head controlling what he does in real time. Howie adds that he's even missed flights… just because something touched his clothes and he had to go home and change. Billy describes patterns, angles, even movements he has to complete… or the thought won’t stop. Then he admits something that caught people off guard: He once became fixated on something about a stranger in a grocery store… and says the thought wouldn’t go away until he acted on it. So he did, then played it off like nothing happened. He says that’s what people don’t get. It’s not a preference. It’s not a personality quirk. It’s something that can take over your thoughts and control your actions at the same time. He says most people using the term “OCD” have no idea what it actually looks like. Be honest, is “OCD” being overused… or are people underestimating how serious it actually is? 📹: HowieMandelDoesStuff
