The best of both worlds? Selena Gomez dropped the season 4 trailer for Selena + Chef on Wednesday (Aug. 3), and fans think she filmed the new season in a familiar locale: the Hannah Montana house.

Kraków Old Town: a DIY walking tour

Kraków Old Town is best explored on a DIY walking tour. Here we share our tried-and-tested route for exploring Poland’s glorious former capital Kraków was Poland’s only major city to escape World War II virtually undamaged. Since then, the assembly of monuments and architecture that makes up its Old Town was quite rightly celebrated by UNESCO as one of the 12 original World Heritage sites first listed in 1978. The Old Town effortlessly fuses European architectural styles – including Romanesque, Gothic, Renaissance, baroque and art nouveau – with a jumble of narrow cobbled streets, elaborate churches and palaces, and grand medieval sights. Add in delicious food, heavenly gelato and endless cocktails in Europe’s largest medieval town square and the result is simply exquisite. We spent three ...

‘AGT’ Vocalist Emily Bland Has Hidden Talents: Watch

Emily Bland has some voice, but it’s not all that it seems. By auditioning on America’s Got Talent Tuesday night (Aug. 2) she came to the right place. The 29-year-old Arkansas native showed sneaky comedy talents early on, opening up with anecdotes from her other job, as a hotel worker. But it’s singing that is the dream that drives her.

I got here.” And then, she sang, with a deep baritone which had everyone in the room confused. Bewildered even. When her husband strolled onto the stage to the strains of  Shania Twain’s “Man! I Feel Like a Woman,” no one was any the wiser. Howie Mandel wr...

‘AGT’ Contestant Stopped Mid-Song, Then Hits a Home Run With an Original: Watch

Fans of America’s Got Talent will know that, when Simon Cowell demands a singer hit a song twice, it’s only when they’re holding back something special. Camille K is a case in point. The 16-year-old New Jersey native stepped on the AGT stage with a guitar and smile that meant business. Explore Explore See latest videos, charts and news See latest videos, charts and news When asked what she has that stands out above the thousands of other hopefuls, the youngster remarked, “I want to spread love and joy through my music. And tell my story.” Cowell killed the number early. “That was ok. You have a nice voice, my only issue is you have to do something more stand-out.” An original perhaps.

Hayley Kiyoko Releases ‘Panorama’ to Give Her Fans the ‘Powerful Gift’ of Hope: Stream It Now

It’s been four years since Hayley Kiyoko released Expectations, her debut studio album— after years of waiting, fans can finally listen to its follow-up Panorama, out today (July 29) via Empire and Atlantic Records. The album takes Kiyoko’s propensity for writing soul-searching lyrics to stunning new heights, as she pushes down any remaining emotional barriers surrounding her in favor of total transperancy. On tracks like “Sugar at the Bottom” and “Flicker Start,” she reinvigorates the saccharine pop sound that made her a star, while songs like “Underground” and “Panorama” venture into ballad-esque breakdowns of ego and self-image.
