Top Entertainment Headlines

Thursday, September 4

Good afternoon Wypierdalaj,

Below are the latest entertainment news stories.

Never say never … again?  

Justin Bieber surprised fans in July with the release of his seventh studio album, “Swag,” hours after he teased it on billboards and social media posts.

It turns out, he wasn’t done yet.

Al Roker grew up watching animated shows long before he was a star on TV.

“I spent a lot of Saturday mornings in front of the TV,” he says. “I was one of those kids who waited with bated breath because going back to school in the fall meant that the fall preview edition of the TV Guide was coming out that had all the listings of all the new cartoons.”

This fall, everyone’s favorite weatherman is getting a kick out of launching his own educational cartoon TV show — “Weather Hunters,” which premieres Monday on PBS Kids.

More than 12 years after bidding farewell to the prickly and pragmatic accountant he played on the acclaimed NBC mockumentary “The Office,” actor Oscar Nuñez is reprising his career-defining role as Oscar Martinez in a new spinoff from the same creative team.

But the Cuban American actor wants to make one thing abundantly clear to die-hard fans of the original Dunder Mifflin Paper Company: “The Paper,” which premieres Thursday on Peacock and has already been renewed for a second season, is more of a spiritual successor than a direct offshoot of “The Office.”

“We’re in a new location in that universe,” Nuñez told NBC News in a recent interview. “It’s a brand-new show with a whole new cast — other than myself being there, because I was part of the deal when they bought the paper company.”

Originally appeared on E! Online.

Kate Middleton is living her life like it’s golden.

After all, the Princess of Wales is embracing being a caramel blonde. As she and husband Prince William — who share kids Prince George, 12, Princess Charlotte, 10, and Prince Louis, 7 — return to their royal duties in England, she confirmed that the light hue is here to stay.

Giorgio Armani, the Italian designer who turned the concept of understated elegance into a multibillion-dollar fashion empire, has died, his fashion house confirmed. He was 91.

Armani died at home, the fashion house said.

Armani, one of the most recognizable names and faces in the global fashion industry, missed Milan Fashion Week in June 2025 for the first time during the previews of Spring-Summer 2026 menswear to recover from an undisclosed condition.

It’s not every day that you get a shot at setting a world record, but that’s exactly the opportunity that fell in the laps of students and staff at the Goddard School of Manhattan in New York City.

Walking into the school one could feel the excitement as administrators grinned from ear-to-ear while preparing a YouTube livestream, and a film crew set up cameras and audio. The production was a part of the schools attempt to set the Guinness World Record for the longest reading livestream on YouTube.

Rami Singh, the owner of this particular location, was among the administrators who proudly wore a smile seemingly for hours. He said the effort came about after corporate office gave him a call and asked if students and staff at his school could pull off the world record attempt in September. The feat would align with National Literacy Month which serves to promote and celebrate the joy of reading and learning.
