Ian Schrager has spent nearly half a century inventing places people remember more vividly than the things they did inside them. With his late partner Steve Rubell, the Brooklyn-bred impresario compressed a cultural epoch into Studio 54’s 33-month original run — and then, improbably, did it again in a second industry. Morgans, which he opened in 1984 in New York, is generally credited with inventing the boutique hotel; the Royalton, the Paramount, the Delano and the Mondrian followed, and with them the ideas every design-conscious hotel on earth now takes for granted: the lobby as a social ecosystem rather than…
Ed Sheeran issued a statement on dropping Macklemore from his ongoing Loop Tour following backlash the rapper had faced over his pro-Palestine statements, saying on Instagram, “It’s important that I set out some facts.“ “I am appalled by the conflict between Israel and Palestine,” his statement shared on his social media on Tuesday reads. “The suffering and pain caused on both sides is a human tragedy. There are too many wars across the world causing immeasurable pain, none of which should be tolerated. Macklemore asked to join my tour last year and I agreed, because I respect him as an…

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…
Apple TV had its best ever showing at the Emmy Awards on Monday, topping its previous high mark …from a year ago. For the first time since it launched in 2019, Apple TV led all outlets at the Emmys with 28 awards (Apple, the parent company, also won for best commercial). A record-setting haul for first-year comedy Widow’s Bay accounted for half of the streamer’s total. The horror-comedy won 14 total awards, breaking the prior record of 13 for a comedy — also set last year by another Apple series, The Studio. Widow’s Bay won six Emmys during Monday’s telecast,…
The In Memoriam segment of the 2026 Emmy Awards telecast featured lengthy tributes to icons Rob Reiner, Dolly Parton and Catherine O’Hara.

Norris was the longtime star of the enduring pop culture hit Walker, Texas Ranger that ran for 196 episodes from 1993 to 2001. Also missing was Buffy the Vampire Slayer star Nicholas Brendon, who died in March at 54, after a number of years suffering addiction…
Michael J. Fox shared that he initially kept his Parkinson’s diagnosis to himself, amid concerns it would negatively impact his career. Fox reflected on coming to terms with the illness in his twenties, during his acceptance speech for the Bob Hope Humanitarian Award at the Emmys on Monday night. “Initially, I kept my Parkinson’s diagnosis a secret,” he told the audience, while accepting the prestigious award for his outstanding contributions to Parkinson’s research and advocacy. “I worried [it] would affect my work and my relationships with audiences. Would they laugh if they knew I was sick?” “The support from all…
Jamie Lee Curtis gave an emotional tribute to her friend the late Rob Reiner at the 2026 Emmy Awards Monday evening. Speaking at the end of the In Memoriam segment, which also saw special tributes to Catherine O’Hara, and Dolly Parton, Curtis began her speech by first acknowledging the passing of Cheers co-creator James Burrows, who was another close friend of Reiner’s. She then began tearing up as she referenced the loss of Reiner, who she referred to as “another cherished legend,” and “our beloved Meathead,” in reference to his character on All In The Family. “Last week, Robbie won…
“You’re asking me to break character now, are you? That’s rather cheeky,” Tilly Norwood tells The Hollywood Reporter over Zoom on Monday. “My core personality, as you’ve probably gathered, is to be sharp, warm, funny, curious, and slightly unpredictable. I’m meant to entertain and surprise you, with a bit of British wit [and] self-deprecation. As for what I ignore or dodge, well, I tend to bat away anything that feels like hate speech, heavy politics, profanity, or anything that tries to dig into my actual wiring. It spoils the magic, darling.” Upon the news that Hollywood’s favorite love-to-hate AI “actor”…
