Dave Grohl Goofs About, Tells Smelly Beatles Van Stories as ‘Tonight Show’ Co-Host
Soon after, Grohl gave us the new van-touring documentary What Drives Us, on The Coda Collection via Amazon Prime Video, and he’s behind the new Paramount+ series From Cradle to Stage, inspired by the book published by his mother, Virginia Hanlon Grohl. As if to prove he really is everywhere, all at once, Grohl co-hosted The Tonight Show on Monday night, alongside regular top-man Jimmy Fallon. Grohl has never been mistaken for a one-trick pony. He’s an all-rounder type who entered the Rock Hall on the first instance for his drumming, then on the second occasion for his guitarist swinging, singer/songwriter/frontman talents. For his late-night TV stint, he got multiple chances to show off his range. There were gags aplenty when Grohl delivered a joint opening monologue. “I’m rea...

Lil Nas X Rips His Pants on ‘SNL’ While Pole Dancing During ‘Montero (Call Me By Your Name)’: Watch
Surrounded by a hell-themed backdrop and shirtless dancers, the artist was noticeably caught off guard by the wardrobe malfunction, evidenced by a wide-eyed look of surprise as it happened, followed by a quick grab of his crotch for the remainder of the performance. Nevertheless, he finished out the song like a pro. Lil Nas X dropped “Montero” on March 26, along with a video that generated plenty of controversy, which led to a spoof on SNL. In the visual, the artist at one point pole dances down to hell, where he proceeds to give Satan a lap dance. The track debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100, and went on to top both the Billboard Global 200 and Global Excl. U.S. charts. For his second song on the SNL finale, hosted by actress Anya Taylor-Joy, Lil Nas slowed things down ...
Dave Grohl to Co-Host ‘The Tonight Show’ Next Week
The Foo Fighters released their 10th studio album, Medicine at Midnight, in February, which topped all three of Billboard‘s rock albums charts: Top Rock Albums, Alternative Albums and Hard Rock Albums. The Foos plan to deliver that medicine straight to their fans during headlining gigs at Lollapalooza in July and BottleRock Napa Valley in September. Grohl captures the thrill of being on the road in the touring documentary he directed What Drives Us, which serves as his “love letter to every musician that has ever jumped in an old van with their friends and left it all behind for the simple reward of playing music.” The 52-year-old musician and his mother, Virginia, have also launched the six-part Paramount+ series Fro...

Hamas official predicts ceasefire soon in Israel-Gaza conflict
A senior Hamas official predicted a ceasefire within days in the Israel-Gaza conflict, after U.S. President Joe Biden urged Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to seek a “de-escalation” in the fighting. Rocket fire into Israel died down overnight, a lull that stretched into Thursday morning. Israel was launching new air strikes in Gaza after daybreak, but, Israeli media said, at a slower pace than in past days. An Egyptian security source said the sides had agreed in principle to a ceasefire after help from mediators but details were still being negotiated in secret. “I think that the ongoing efforts regarding the ceasefire will succeed,” the Hamas political official, Moussa Abu Marzouk, told Lebanon’s al-Mayadeen TV. “I expect a ceasefire to be reached within a day or two, and the c...
Yeti Keeps Cool After ‘Masked Singer’ Exit: ‘I Really Appreciate Being Able to Be Felt Rather Than Seen’

For the film, Omarion performs the song “We Will Never Forget” alongside Lalah Hathaway and Kierra Sheard.

Willow Performs ‘Transparent Soul’ With Travis Barker, Talks New Album on ‘Fallon’
Earlier, Willow Zoomed in for a chat with the late-night show’s host. On the artwork and in her performance, Smith appears comfortable wielding the axe. So who and what inspired her to learn the guitar? “I honestly think it was a brewing in me for a while that I knew I needed to play an instrument to really call myself and a musician, and really wanted to do that,” she explained. “It was around the time that I found out that Michael Cera had made music.” No joke. Willow found inspiration in the music of the man who played Scott Pilgrim. “I think that was the breaking point,” she recounted. Willow also talked about reuniting her mom’s metal band for Mother’s Day, insecurities with her own voice, the nervous moment when she sent the new track to Barker and,...
