Kesha was a guest on The Kelly Clarkson Show this past Tuesday and spoke with host Kelly Clarkson about starting her own label: Kesha Records. Kelly seems to allude to their shared past working with Dr. Luke when she congratulates her by saying: "I know what this is like ... We've worked with similar people and vibes, and it's... I mean, I would ask you the question of 'why did you start your own label', but I know that answer."
Kesha also announces that she'll be releasing her mom's previously unreleased album, recorded in the 80's, on her label—and surprises Kelly with her very own ghost hunting starter pack.

TW for incest/sexual contact of minors
Kanye revealed in a new song that he had an incestuous relationship with his cousin after discovering adult magazines. He said this cousin is now in prison for killing a pregnant woman.
"Perhaps in my self centered mess I felt it was my fault that I showed him those dirty magazines when he was 6," Kanye said, "and then we acted out what we saw."
Kanye added, "My name is Ye and I sucked my cousins dick till I was 14."

Commentary: Morgan Wallen Is One of Music’s Most Radioactive Stars.
— Rolling Stone (@RollingStone) April 17, 2025
Tate McRae Stepped in the Hazard Zone.

Rolling Stone wrote about Tate McRae's upcoming collaboration with Morgan Wallen and the backlash she has received from it.
When the publication asked her reps for comment, they chose not to respond.
"If McRae had a country-pop pivot in mind, there were plenty of options that wouldn’t place her next to one of country’s most radioactive stars," writes Rolling Stone. "She’s stepped into the hazard zone, but it’s unlikely to completely derail her rising star — it might just bring her to an audience that doesn’t care much about morals as long as the music is good. It’ll have to run its course."

5 Reasons Why Ryan Coogler and Michael B. Jordan's 'Sinners' Ruled the Box Office https://t.co/kNET3p9mFq
— Variety (@Variety) April 21, 2025
After posting a critical article about the financial status of 'Sinners' - despite the movie opening to a 60 million debut weekend - Variety has been lashed by not only Ben Stiller but the Internet at large for pushing a narrative about the film being a financial disappointment.
Now, it appears they've changed their tune. They've since posted an article titled "5 Reasons Why Ryan Coogler and Michael B. Jordan's 'Sinners' Ruled the Box Office". The post is a far cry from the post that gained them criticism in the first place, in which they noted about the successful movie: "profitability remains a ways away". Variety is generally viewed as a trade publication.
As previously reported right here on ONTD, studios are apparently panicking about Ryan Coogler's Warner Bros deal, and want the movie to flop as a result. Instead, the movie has been garnering massive praise, financial success, and a very effective word-of-mouth campaign.

John Cena Admitted He Got A Hair Transplant After "Bullying" From Wrestling Fans https://t.co/a0c0vvwWY1
— BuzzFeed (@BuzzFeed) April 22, 2025
-John Cena is another rare celebrity male owning up to getting a hair transplant this past November "There’s another headline for you: hair transplant. There is no shame in that. I have a problem, I try to fix it," he continued. "I’m not going to tell you who did it because I’m still waiting for it to get better. Once it’s better and I get the long flowing locks, I’ll be like, ‘Go to this guy.’"
-One of the reasons why was the fans: "By the way, thank you for being so aware of my needs and emotions because you guys ripped me to shreds for a genetic problem that I can’t control. ‘You don’t look good enough out there.’ This isn't cool. You guys aren’t cool to me. I’m in the Rumble trying to win, you're like, ‘Man has a bald spot. I just saw so many bald spots signs. That’s not fair. I can’t control that. It happens to seven out of 10 dudes," he said. "One of you sons of bitches could’ve pulled me to the side. But no, in unison, you chant and make me feel small and embarrass me. Y’all don’t know what that’s like. That is straight-up bullying and not cool. Thank you for bullying me into getting surgical hair replacement. That’s how far y’all pushed me.”

This Is Us. I cannot watch a show that sad all the time
Stephen Universe. People keep saying it gets good like 100 episodes in and I'm like "that's too many episodes."
I genuinely don’t understand what people see in The Bear.
Ozark. It was so repetitive. Good thing happens. Bad thing happens. Husband wife almost break up. Good thing happens. Husband wife back in love. Bad thing happens. Relationship in question.
I have tried Bojack no less than 4 times, each time with multiple episodes of actual paying attention and i just could not get into it
Succession. Couldn’t get past the fact that I hated all of them. Think I struggle without having someone to root for
I know people loved The Pacific as a sequel to Band of Brothers but I gave up on it after 3 episodes. I just didn’t care for it and it didn’t hold up to Band of Brothers to me in the slightest.
Right now it’s Severance. I’m sure some of it is from being overhyped, but it’s just not for me. And I was excited about it, too.

Eat the Ones You Love
After losing her job and her fiancé and moving back from the city to live with her parents, Shell Pine needs some help. And according to the sign in the window, the florist shop in the mall does too. Shell gets the gig, and the flowers she works with there are just the thing she needs to cheer up. Or maybe it’s Neve, the beautiful shop manager, who is making her days so rosy?
But you have to get your hands dirty if you want your garden to grow—and Neve’s secrets are as dark and dangerous as they come. In the back room of the flower shop, a young sentient orchid actually runs the show, and he is hungry . . . and he has a plan for them all.
When the choices are to either bury yourself in the warmth of someone else’s fertile soil, or face the cold and disappointing world outside—which would you choose? And what if putting down roots came at a cost far higher than just your freedom?

Great Big Beautiful Life
Alice Scott is an eternal optimist still dreaming of her big writing break. Hayden Anderson is a Pulitzer-prize winning human thundercloud. And they’re both on balmy Little Crescent Island for the same reason: to write the biography of a woman no one has seen in years—or at least to meet with the octogenarian who claims to be the Margaret Ives. Tragic heiress, former tabloid princess, and daughter of one of the most storied (and scandalous) families of the twentieth century.
When Margaret invites them both for a one-month trial period, after which she’ll choose the person who’ll tell her story, there are three things keeping Alice’s head in the game.
One: Alice genuinely likes people, which means people usually like Alice—and she has a whole month to win the legendary woman over.
Two: She’s ready for this job and the chance to impress her perennially unimpressed family with a Serious Publication.
Three: Hayden Anderson, who should have no reason to be concerned about losing this book, is glowering at her in a shaken-to-the core way that suggests he sees her as competition.
But the problem is, Margaret is only giving each of them pieces of her story. Pieces they can’t swap to put together because of an ironclad NDA and an inconvenient yearning pulsing between them every time they’re in the same room.
And it’s becoming abundantly clear that their story—just like the tale Margaret’s spinning—could be a mystery, tragedy, or love ballad . . . depending on who’s telling it.

The Bright Years
Ryan and Lillian Bright are deeply in love, recently married, and now parents to a baby girl, Georgette. But Lillian has a son she hasn’t told Ryan about, and Ryan has an alcohol addiction he hasn’t told Lillian about, so Georgette comes of age watching their marriage rise and fall.
When a shocking blow scatters their fragile trio, Georgette tries to distance herself from reminders of her parents. Years later, Lillian’s son comes searching for his birth family, so Georgette must return to her roots, unearth her family’s history, and decide whether she can open up to love for them—or herself—while there’s still time.

The Pretender
In 1480 John Collan’s greatest anxiety is how to circumvent the village’s devil goat on his way to collect water. But the arrival of a well-dressed stranger from London upends his life forever: John is not John Collan, not the son of Will Collan but Lambert Simnel, the son of the long-deceased Duke of Clarence, and has been hidden in the countryside after a brotherly rift over the crown—and because Richard III has a habit of disappearing his nephews.
Removed from his humble origins and sent to Oxford to be educated in a manner befitting the throne’s rightful heir, Lambert is put into play by his masters. He learns the rules of etiquette in Burgundy and the machinations of the court in Ireland, where he encounters the intractable Joan, the delightfully strong-willed and manipulative daughter of his Irish patrons, a girl imbued with both extraordinary political savvy and occasional murderous tendencies. Joan has two paths available to her—marry or become a nun. Lambert’s choices are similarly stark: he will either become king or die in battle. Together they form an alliance that will change the fate of the English monarchy.

Matriarch: A Memoir
Tina Knowles, the mother of iconic singer-songwriters Beyoncé Knowles-Carter, Solange Knowles, and bonus daughter Kelly Rowland, is known the world over as a Matriarch with a capital M: a determined, self-possessed, self-aware, and wise woman who raised and inspired some of the great artists of our time. But this story is about so much more than that.
Matriarch begins with a precocious, if unruly, little girl growing up in 1950s Galveston, the youngest of seven. She is in love with her world, with extended family on every other porch and the sounds of Motown and the lapping beach always within earshot. But as the realities of race and the limitations of girlhood set in, she begins to dream of a more grandiose world. Her instincts and impulsive nature drive her far beyond the shores of Texas to discover the life awaiting her on the other side of childhood.
That life’s journey—through grief and tragedy, creative and romantic risks and turmoil, the nurturing of superstar offspring and of her own special gifts—is the remarkable story she shares with readers here. This is a page-turning chronicle of family love and heartbreak, of loss and perseverance, and of the kind of creativity, audacity, and will it takes for a girl from Galveston to change the world. It’s one brilliant woman’s intimate and revealing story, and a multigenerational family saga that carries within it the story of America—and the wisdom that women pass on to one another, mothers to daughters, across generations.

A Protest History of the United States
In this timely new book in Beacon’s successful ReVisioning History series, professor Gloria Browne-Marshall delves into the history of protest movements and rebellion in the United States. Beginning with Indigenous peoples’ resistance to European colonization and continuing through to today’s climate change demonstrations, Browne-Marshall expands how to think about protest through sharing select historical moments and revealing the role of key players involved in those efforts.
Drawing upon legal documents, archival material, government documents and secondary sources, A Protest History of the United States gives voice to those who pushed back against the mistreatment of others, themselves, and in some instances planet Earth. Browne-Marshall highlights stories of individuals from all walks of life, backgrounds, and time periods who helped bring strong attention to their causes. Those examples of protest include those of Wahunsenacock, more commonly known to history as Chief Powhatan, who took on English invaders in pre-colonial America in 1607; legendary boxer Muhammad Ali's refusal to fight in Vietnam and appealed all the way to the US Supreme Court; and David Buckel, LGBTQ+ rights lawyer and environmental activist who protested against fossil fuels by committing self-immolation in 2018.
Regardless of whether these protests accomplished their end goals, Browne-Marshall reminds us that not only is dissent meaningful and impactful but is an essential tool for eliciting long lasting change.

Voice of the Ocean
As the youngest daughter of the siren queen, Celeste’s life is tightly controlled. Desperate to prove her worth and escape her destiny—trapped in the palace as a royal figurehead—she intends to join the Chorus, an elite group of siren warriors. With the final test on the horizon, Celeste feels the pressure to finally gain control over her temperamental Song—a magic gifted by the Goddess herself. But when Celeste encounters a seemingly harmless ship in Staria’s waters, helmed by the intriguing Prince Raiden Sharp, her path veers toward forbidden waters.
Believing the handsome sailor to be innocent of any wrongdoing, Celeste defies siren law to save Raiden’s life—despite knowing he is the son of a king who has murdered many of her kindred. The penalty for Celeste’s betrayal should be death, but the queen offers her an alternative: right her wrong by assassinating the prince. Determined to first discover the truth behind the prince’s clandestine mission, Celeste agrees to become human.
But the human world is nothing like she expected, nor is the prince the charming and noble man she assumed him to be. Disguised among Raiden’s ragtag crew, she searches for the truth. But as Celeste finds her place aboard the ship, friendships—and attraction—begin to grow. Will Celeste be able to do what must be done? Or will her choices unravel a kingdom, devastating sirens and humans alike?
