Andrew Bird brought his signature sound to KCRW HQ in Santa Monica, Calif., on Friday night (October 30) for an intimate Live on KCRW performance featuring new music, fan favorites and stories from his celebrated career.

The acclaimed singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist treated the audience to a special evening of music and conversation, performing several brand new songs alongside selections from his 2019 album My Finest Work Yet.

The album is also getting a new moment in the spotlight, as songs from the record will be featured in the upcoming movie I Play Rocky.

Andrew was joined on stage by an impressive lineup of musicians, including Ted Poor on drums, Alan Hampton on bass and Madison Cunningham on electric guitar.

During the Q&A portion of the evening, Andrew had the audience laughing as he reflected on his recent Emmy win for “Need Someone,” his original song featured in HBO’s hit medical drama The Pitt.

Despite releasing more than 20 albums throughout his decades-long career, Andrew joked, “My first Grammy was an Emmy.”

He also revealed the surprising story behind the award-winning track.

Gavin Brivek, who handles research for The Pitt, initially cold called Andrew in search of music for a pivotal scene in the series. Andrew admitted that he hadn’t watched the show at the time, assuming it was “just another medical drama.”

However, after Gavin sent him the scene, Andrew immediately connected with the material. The inspiration came so quickly that he ended up writing “Need Someone” in just one hour!

The Emmy-winning song became one of the evening’s highlights, arriving toward the end of the set alongside “Bellevue Bridge Club” and “Cracking Codes” before Andrew closed out the performance with “Capsized.”

For fans who couldn’t attend the intimate show, there’s good news! The full session will be published by KCRW and made available to the public on December 2.

Rebecca Gayheart is detailing Eric Dane‘s final days.

If you are not aware, Eric passed away on February 19, 2026, at age 53 after his battle with ALS. Eric started dating Rebecca in the early 2000s and they tied the knot in Las Vegas in October 2004.

The couple called it quits in 2018, with Rebecca filing for divorce after 14 years of marriage.

In March 2025, Rebecca called off their divorce and dismissed their proceedings. We found out a month later that Eric had been diagnosed with ALS.

Rebecca Gayheart Reveals Eric Dane’s Last Hospital Stay

“He had gone to the hospital so many times before, and they would patch him up, so to speak, and he would come home. And he’d be okay. And we’d go back to the normal routine, which did change week by week,” Rebecca said on the Today show.

He went to the hospital in February 2026, and they did not anticipate that he would pass away at that time.

“I had no idea that that was it, that that week was going to be our last week. And nor did my daughters. It really took a few days for us to understand the gravity of what that last trip to the hospital meant,” she continued. The pair had two daughters together, Billie, 16, and Georgia, 14.

She said by his third day in the hospital, something had shifted in “the tone of when the doctors were talking to us, and some of the information we were given.”

“He was fully aware it was shifting, and he was still communicating with us. Not well verbally, but I could understand him most of the time. The kids could most of the time, his closest friends,” Rebecca added.

“But I remember the moment Eric decided to make some choices, and he did. … He was in control of the way he was going to leave,” she continued.

His final days saw his daughters in his hospital room, which they “tried to make it as nice as you can be in the hospital room,” with candles and music.

Our continued thoughts are with Eric Dane‘s loves ones.

The medical examiner’s report for Victoria Zardoya toxicology results have been revealed.

Milania Giudice‘s childhood friend sadly passed away at the age of 20 after an apparent fall over the summer. She apparently fell off of the ruins of old Fort Dade on Egmont Key, and had life threatening injuries.

The Medical Examiner’s Report Revealed What Was In Victoria’s System

TMZ reports that she had ketamine and norketamine in her system, as well as alcohol and etomidate.

According to the Medical News Today, “Ketamine is a medication that doctors use as an anesthetic to induce loss of consciousness…doctors sometimes prescribe it for “off-label” uses, such as depression.” And if you aren’t aware, norketamine is produced by the body after breaking down ketamine. Etomidate is used for sedation.

The sample was taken on July 24, the day of her fall. They note that “the report does not establish when or why the drugs were administered, or whether they played any role in her fall.”

Milania Giudice and her family previously paid tribute on social media with emotional posts.

NCIS fans will have to wait another week for new episodes of their favorite shows.

CBS is taking a break from its regular Tuesday night lineup on November 3, meaning there won’t be new episodes of NCIS, NCIS: New York or NCIS: Origins tonight.

The network is airing live coverage of the 2026 midterm elections instead of its usual primetime programming.

The good news is that all three shows are scheduled to return next week, and we have the dates, times and upcoming episode details.

Why Aren’t the NCIS Shows on Tonight, November 3?

CBS is airing its America Decides election coverage beginning at 7 p.m. ET on Tuesday (November 3).

The special programming replaces the network’s regular Tuesday night schedule, which normally consists of NCIS at 8 p.m., NCIS: New York at 9 p.m. and NCIS: Origins at 10 p.m. ET/PT.

The interruption comes just a few weeks after all three shows returned for their new seasons on October 6.

NCIS is currently in Season 24, while NCIS: New York is airing its first season and NCIS: Origins is in Season 3.

When Do NCIS, NCIS: New York & NCIS: Origins Return?

All three shows are scheduled to return with new episodes on Tuesday, November 10, 2026.

Here’s the confirmed schedule:

– 8 p.m. ET/PT: NCIS Season 24, Episode 5, “Speechless”

– 9 p.m. ET/PT: NCIS: New York Season 1, Episode 5, “True Love”

– 10 p.m. ET/PT: NCIS: Origins Season 3, Episode 5, “Baila Esta Cumbia”

The shows are returning to their usual Tuesday night timeslots, so the schedule change is only a one-week interruption.

The next episode of NCIS will follow the team as an investigation involving a missing Marine leads them to a young girl with a special talent.

Meanwhile, the newest spinoff, NCIS: New York, continues following Sam Hanna, played by LL Cool J, alongside Nick Schaeffer, played by Scott Caan.

NCIS: Origins continues exploring the early career of Leroy Jethro Gibbs, played by Austin Stowell, with Mark Harmon also appearing as the present-day Gibbs throughout Season 3.

How Can You Watch NCIS on Paramount+?

All three shows air on CBS and are also available through Paramount+.

Subscribers to Paramount+ Premium can stream their local CBS affiliate live, including new episodes as they air. Paramount+ Essential subscribers can watch new episodes on demand beginning the following day, although that plan does not include the live local CBS broadcast.

If you’re looking to catch up before the November 10 return, episodes from the current seasons are available to stream on the service.

We previously shared more details about NCIS: New York and how to watch the new spinoff, including the return of LL Cool J’s Sam Hanna.

You can also read about Mark Harmon‘s expanded role in NCIS: Origins Season 3.

Colton Little is opening up about the difficulties of finding acting work in Hollywood and revealing why he’s stepping back from his career.

The 37-year-old actor, best known for playing Andrew Donovan on the Peacock soap opera Days of Our Lives, shared a video on Instagram on Saturday (October 31) discussing his financial struggles and the possibility of losing his SAG-AFTRA membership.

Colton explained that he’s been working professionally as an actor for approximately 15 years, appearing in television shows and movies, but says opportunities have become increasingly difficult to find.

Colton Little Says He’s Facing SAG-AFTRA Membership Termination

“Get ready with me to get kicked out of SAG-AFTRA, the actor’s union,” the video begins.

In his video, Colton revealed that he owes approximately $2,000 in union dues and shared what appeared to be a SAG-AFTRA email notifying him that his membership was scheduled to terminate on November 1 because of an outstanding balance.

“SAG is kicking out hundreds of members today because the union charges actors dues that are based on how much you earn acting,” he said.

The actor expressed frustration with the state of the entertainment industry, pointing to the pandemic, the 2023 Hollywood strikes and concerns about AI replacing jobs.

He also described the situation in Los Angeles as bleak, claiming that productions and acting opportunities have become increasingly scarce.

“Right now, I owe about $2000. And as a working class actor in LA after COVID and two strikes and now the imminent threat of AI replacing everybody’s jobs, there are no auditions. There are no parts. There is nothing filming in L.A. It’s really bleak,” he said.

Colton explained that he’s decided not to pay his outstanding union dues for now and instead plans to prioritize his personal well-being.

“I’ve just decided to pull back. I’ve decided not to pay my dues. And it does feel like a huge betrayal to myself and to this dream that I’ve poured so much into but unless the right opportunity comes along, I’m going to prioritize myself for now, and I encourage you to do the same,” he explained.

What SAG-AFTRA Says About Membership Terminations

SAG-AFTRA resumed enforcing its regular membership termination policies following several years of relief amid the strikes and the pandemic.

In an October 25 statement, the union explained that it would resume membership terminations beginning November 1.

SAG-AFTRA said affected members received repeated notices and were given 12 months to address their outstanding balances. The organization also pointed to financial assistance measures it had offered, including installment plans, extended payment deadlines and waived late fees.

According to SAG-AFTRA, members whose memberships are terminated can apply for reinstatement, with opportunities for individualized consideration of financial hardship.

Earlier this year, Colton also made headlines when his relationship with General Hospital actor Adrian Anchondo became public.

Chris Rock is opening up about his past behavior during his marriage, giving up pornography and the changes he’s made in his personal life.

The 61-year-old comedian and actor is featured on the cover of GQ‘s 2026 Men of the Year issue, where he reflects on his divorce from Malaak Compton-Rock, going to therapy and his future in Hollywood.

Chris and Malaak married in 1996, separated in 2014 and finalized their divorce in 2016. They share two daughters, Lola and Zahra.

Chris Rock Opens Up About Cheating on His Ex-Wife, Malaak

In his 2018 Netflix comedy special Tamborine, Chris previously admitted that he had cheated on his wife and struggled with pornography use.

In his new interview, Chris once again reflected on his former relationship, and admitted to cheating.

“I was not a great husband. I watched a lot of porn. I don’t watch porn anymore. I haven’t watched porn in five, six years,” he told GQ.

He also acknowledged that his past behavior wasn’t something he was proud of.

“It’s not anything I’m proud of, but it’s something I had to go through,” he said.

“I tested my powers. I definitely realized I wasn’t God or anywhere near him, and I was severely humbled, as I should have been,” he reflected.

Chris discussed how his divorce affected his career, including the 12-year gap between directing 2014’s Top Five and his new A24 movie Misty Green.

“Nobody has a successful divorce, so that takes time,” he explained, adding that he returned to touring while trying to get his personal life back together, as well as his finances.

“Then once it’s done, you’re not sitting on the money you had before, so now you got to really make some money. So you go on tour, or two tours. So there was a lot of stand-up. There was a lot of getting my life together,” he continued.

Chris Rock Opens Up About Therapy & His Learning Disorder

Chris also discussed seeking therapy after realizing his personal relationships weren’t where he wanted them to be.

“My personal life wasn’t what I wanted it to be. And I’ll leave it at that,” he said, describing how emotional he was when he first started therapy.

He also opened up about being diagnosed with nonverbal learning disorder, which can affect how someone interprets nonverbal social cues.

According to Chris, receiving the diagnosis helped him recognize how some of his behavior had affected others throughout his life.

“It made me realize how insensitive a lot of my behavior was throughout the years,” he admitted, going on to reflect on how he thought his fame affected his relationships.

“Mental illness and celebrity—it’s a weird combination there, because you think people are reacting a certain way because of celebrity,” he explained.

“Because it’s this weird thing that you can’t quantify. So I used to just blame everything on celebrity. It’s like, ‘Oh, we’re not connecting because I had a chronic unique-ism.’ I thought I was so f—ing unique.”

Is Chris Rock Planning to Retire From Stand-Up Comedy?

Elsewhere in the interview, Chris revealed that he expects to focus more on directing, although he isn’t officially announcing his retirement from stand-up.

“I’m probably going to direct more. I don’t know how much [more] stand-up I’m going to do,” he said.

“I got like six, seven specials, man. That’s a lot. So I don’t know. I’m not announcing anything or anything, but if I do it, I want to do it right.”

Chris Rock Doesn’t Want the 2022 Oscars Slap to Define His Career

He also reflected on the infamous 2022 Oscars incident involving Will Smith, explaining that he wants audiences to focus on his creative work rather than that incident.

“Something happened. It wasn’t cool. And I would like to move on,” he said.

“I know there’s a part of that that’s going to follow me the rest of my life…I have a plethora of art I’m trying to get out, and that’s what I want you to pay attention to, not some crazy night,” he continued.

Jennifer Lawrence is channeling Katniss Everdeen today!

The 36-year-old Oscar winner was photographed on Tuesday morning (November 3) in New York City, but it was her hand gesture that caught the attention of fans!

Jennifer appears to be doing Katniss’ Hunger Games three finger salute, made famous by her in the franchise that launched her into superstardom.

You’ll also notice she has her hair in a braid, reminiscent of the character as well.

Jennifer and her co-star in the films, Josh Hutcherson, have been confirmed to return for The Hunger Games: Sunrise on the Reaping.

Sunrise on the Reaping follows sixteen-year-old Haymitch Abernathy from District 12, beginning on the morning of the reaping for the 50th Annual Hunger Games, also known as the Second Quarter Quell, the biggest Games yet with twice as many tributes. The story follows Haymitch into the arena, where he forms an unlikely alliance with fellow tribute Maysilee Donner (Mckenna Grace) and joins a coalition determined to challenge the Capitol’s control under President Snow (Ralph Fiennes). As the competition unfolds, Haymitch risks everything to take down the Games from within the arena — setting in motion the rebellion that will change Panem forever.

The movie will be released in theaters on November 20.

The movie is directed by Francis Lawrence with a screenplay by Billy Ray and Michael Lesslie. It is based on Suzanne Collins‘ bestselling novel of the same name.

If you haven’t seen, Jennifer just made a plastic surgery confession.

A judge in the United Kingdom has made a ruling on the anonymous celebrity’s identity.

Last week, it was reported that a famous, anonymous public figure is facing allegations that he engaged in “inappropriate sexual activities with a large number of girls and young women.” This celebrity apparently wanted to keep his name out of the press, and his lawyers actually said that if his name were to be published, he would be “highly likely” to take his own life. He apparently fears the “trial by media.”

He has been trying to halt Independent Television News from publishing his name.

The Judge Is Revealing the Ruling in the Anonymous Celebrity Case

A judge said that he can officially be named.

“The claim brought by the claimant is dismissed and the application for the injunction is refused,” the judge said, via The Sun.

However, we won’t know his name just yet.

The Catch: the Judge Ruled That He Cannot Be Named Yet Due to Possible Appeal

The man in question could file a potential appeal, and this has halted his name possibly being exposed at this time.

By the way, the celeb in question has denied the claims. His lawyers have also claimed that the anonymous celeb has previously attempted suicide twice, been hospitalized twice, been placed in an involuntary detention, and been seen by more than 10 doctors over this matter.

Stay tuned.

Eric Dane‘s memoir reveals more details about his time on Grey’s Anatomy as Dr. Mark Sloan – aka McSteamy.

He wrote about it in his posthumous memoir, My Book of Days: A Memoir in Moments. If you are not aware, Eric passed away on February 19, 2026, at age 53 after his battle with ALS.

“Every moment I spend playing Dr. Mark Sloan, acting with the Grey’s cast and interacting with the actors and crew off camera, is a complete joy,” he wrote, via EW.

He Initially Did Not Want to Audition for Mark Sloan After Auditioning for Derek Shepherd

He wrote that he was concerned it was only a guest-starring spot, and thus, almost did not go to the audition!

He said he auditioned for McDreamy – the role played by Patrick Dempsey – and almost got it: “I could play the **** out of this part. But I’m not going to. I pass Even though I tested for the lead, and almost got the part, I now have to audition for a guest shot? Call it ego, call it pride, call it stupid. I won’t stoop to that.”

Obviously, he did eventually audition and landed the role.

“When I finish, I know, I just know. I nailed it. Shonda smiles. The rest of the people in the room hold a beat, then they follow her smile, everyone now smiling and nodding, falling just short of gushing, and after our round of goodbyes, I leave, feeling high, feeling sure. I got the part,” he continued.

He Was Prescribed Painkillers for a Neck Injury That Impacted Him on Set

After a neck injury, he was prescribed pain killers: “My body goes to ****. I drop to 170, my face caves in, my eyes cloud, Iook gaunt; ****, I look like a drug addict. You can tell. I can tell. My attitude on set changes. I’m no longer bubbly, the fun guy, a ringleader in laughs. I don’t act out. I don’t throw tantrums or chairs. I go the other way. I bring everything inside. I dissolve.”

He Went to Rehab 5 Times

Eric wrote that he ended up going to rehab five times. He said that Shonda Rhimes also wanted to help, but he lied to her.

“I tell her I’m dealing with it. I lie to her. I lie to myself. I suck it up. Fight through it. I don’t want to be Shonda’s burden. I don’t want to be a problem. But I am. I am a problem,” he wrote.

Eventually, he did “manage” his addiction amid his rehab stays, but he decided things “changed” on set and he was ready to move on.

“Mentally, I’m on my way out. I love Mark Sloan, but I need to quit him,” he explained.

He Left Because of Money

So why did he end up leaving the show? It “comes down to money,” he explained in the book. “Despite Mark Sloan’s popularity, I have become too expensive. I have become expendable,” he shared.

He did add that he was sober when he was written out.

“I go out strong. I make sure of that,” he added.

The show is based on the acclaimed Apple TV series of the same name. It stars Tony Award nominees Alex Brightman and Sara Chase as Josh Skinner and Melissa Gimble, a couple who accidentally wanders into Schmigadoon – the magical town where every day is a musical.

Melissa and Josh soon discover the only way to escape is by finding true love—which may or may not be with each other.

During his first week of shows, Juan Pablo was visited by two fellow Hallmark stars who he has worked with in the past.

The 33-year-old actress attended a New York screening for the film on Monday night (November 2) in New York City at the Village East Cinema alongside her co-star Jason Isaacs, director Zachary Wigon, and screenwriter Virginia Feito.

Maika wore what appears to be the deconstructed lace maxi dress by Colleen Allen to the screening and Chopard jewelry, including earrings in 18k white gold set with 8.5-carats of diamonds and a ring in 18k white gold set with 1.98-carats of diamonds, both from the Haute Joaillerie Collection.

Jason wore a dark navy blue, two-button unstructured blazer with notch lapels and a solid black crewneck t-shirt layered beneath it. He finished off the look with casual low-top sneakers and matching dark navy blue pants.

Thomasin McKenzie and Ruth Wilson also star, but did not appear to be at the screening.

What is Victorian Psycho about?

Virginia adapted the screenplay for the movie from her 2025 novel of the same name.

“Set in Victorian England, Victorian Psycho sees an eccentric governess arrive at a remote gothic manor, where strange happenings stir suspicion that she’s not what she seems,” is the official synopsis, per the distributor Bleecker Street.

Victorian Psycho will be released in theaters on November 13, 2026 in the U.S.

Billy Evans is breaking his silence on the shower scene in the documentary movie You Can See Everything.

The 34-year-old partner of Elizabeth Holmes is featured alongside her in the new film, directed by Nathan Fielder and Lance Oppenheim.

In one scene, he appears full frontal in the shower and he confirms he felt “violated” by that scene being included in the finished film.

After Billy is filmed working out in the gym, the next scene shows him in the shower at home. An elongated shot pans up on his fully naked body. After he gets out of the shower and puts a towel around his waist, he almost bumps into Nathan, who is standing right outside of the bathroom.

The co-director of the movie, Lance Oppenheim, previously said that Billy willingly took his clothes off for the cameras and that it seemed “like he really had something he wanted to show to us and to the world.”

Sources later spoke out to reveal an opposite view.

A source told People, “The shower scene wasn’t Billy’s idea. He only agreed to it with an understanding they would keep it PG. Finding out otherwise via media coverage would be unsettling for anyone, to say the least. It’s a violation of trust and exploiting that trust for shock value.”

Another insider says that Billy was told that nudity would be cut from the film.

TMZ reports that Billy was told “it would not make the final cut for legal reasons.”

Billy Evans speaks out on the shower scene

During an “ask me anything” session on X, someone asked Billy about the shower scene.

One person noted that the scene “doesnt happen unless you want it to,” which Billy said is a “false narrative.”

Someone else asked, “They forced themselves into the shower with you or they just started filming and you didn’t tell them to stop?”

Billy shared the People article, which quoted the source saying he felt “violated,” and told the person to “trust the ‘sources.'”

Taylor Swift was excited by the idea of writing an original song for Toy Story 5 right from the outset, but she wanted to be sure she wasn’t pushing someone else out of the opportunity.

The 36-year-old pop star sat down for a Q&A with director Andrew Stanton following a special screening on Sunday (November 1), and discussed the process to getting her hit song “I Knew It, I Knew You” made for the Pixar film.

According to Billboard, Stanton was adamant Taylor was the only person he wanted for the job, as he wanted to change things up for the new film. Randy Newman has famously written the music for Toy Story since its 1995 inception, but Stanton wanted to go in a different direction with the “Opalite” singer.

“Nothing else made sense,” the filmmaker said.

Taylor was initially unavailable and Stanton said they just weren’t going to have an original end credits song. The singer continually reached out to him to ensure they still wanted her and that no one else had stepped in to replace her. She said she would have understood since it took her months to get back to the movie.

Not long after the song debuted, the multi-Grammy winner revealed what the lyrics really mean and the song’s double meanings.

“I don’t want to kick somebody off of this project that you reached out to after [me],” she added. “I understand, but I’m not in the business of doing that.”

Taylor did end up writing the song, “I Knew It, I Knew You,” and it became a no. 1 hit on the Billboard Hot 100 and broke multiple records. It has also garnered Oscar buzz, with Taylor performing it at the Academy Museum Gala last month and over the summer at a Grammys Icon Session.

A Toy Story 5 producer also memorably wrote Taylor a personal letter asking her to write the song for the Pixar film.

“We may not be able to shield you from every bit of darkness in this world, but we promise to raise you to be a LIGHT in it. You are already our greatest blessing, our answered prayer, and the sweetest chapter of our lives,” she wrote in the caption.

The 56-year-old Odyssey star stepped out with his 20-year-old daughter to attend the fashion award show held at the Museum of Natural History on Monday night (November 2).

While there, the pair spoke to People about the advice they give each other.

“We both have trouble answering questions seriously,” Matt joked. “And so I think we advise each other to try to answer questions more seriously.”

Isabella said she shares advice with her father, saying she feels like she’s been “teaching” him and giving him advice “for a long time,” and Matt agreed.

“For a long time. Yeah, for a long time,” he said in response.

“And this is part of the natural progression,” Isabella added. “This is where it was bound to wind up,” Matt quipped.

“No, she’s a wonderful, wonderful young woman and I don’t give her advice in the sense that I worry about her,” he continued, “But I’m really excited to see what she does with her life.”

Isabella was signed to IMG Models over the summer.

Matt has four daughters with wife Luciana Damon. They share Alexia, 27, who is Matt‘s stepdaughter and Luciana‘s daughter from a previous marriage, Isabella, 20, Gia, 17, and Stella, 15.
