I scream, you scream, we all scream for Snoop Dogg’s ice cream.
The cannabis king hosted the first Dr. Bombay day event — “Ice Cream Dreams” — last Friday and let’s just say that more famous names are showing off their sweet tooth. Named after his Bored Ape NFT sidekick and inspired by the West Coast vibe that has been a continual part of Snoop Dogg’s life and brand (ugh, that term), Dr. Bombay ice cream got its first official party celebration at Snoop’s compound in Inglewood, CA last weekend with a bevy of guests.
The party was hit up by Snoop’s son Cordell Broadus, Lil Baby, musicians Gavin Rossdale, Hemlock Springs, and Tommy Richman, model Slick Woods, actor Jaleel White, and a Death Row Records entourage, all of whom enjoyed boozy floats, cannabis pairings by Death Row Cannabis, collab sneakers, and more. Additionally, Snoop greeted guests and friends while enjoying his newest ice cream flavor “Strawberry Cream Dream,” which will hit grocery store shelves next month.
“I love my munchies, especially my Dr. Bombay ice cream. I am declaring April 19th Dr. Bombay Day – be sure to hit the store and tell them Dogg sent you,” Snoop Dogg said.

PartyNextDoor is back. The Toronto singer had taken a bit of a hiatus for the past few years, sharing new music only sparingly (“Her Old Friends,” “Resentment“) until announcing his new album, PartyNextDoor 4 (or P4) last month. Now, it’s just hours from appearing on DSPs, and fans are already plenty excited to find out what the toxic troubadour has in store.
When Can You Play PartyNextDoor’s New Album P4 On Spotify?
PartyNextDoor 4 is out 4/26 via OVO Sound / Warner Records. That means it’ll most likely hit streaming platforms like Apple Music, Spotify, and Tidal at midnight, eastern time (which is 9 PM pacific).
Just make sure nobody can see your device screen when you pull it up to listen to it; the album’s raunchy cover photo caused a fair amount of consternation online when he revealed it back on April 1st, prompting some fans to wonder if the cover was an April Fool’s joke. However, it looks like Party is dead serious, forging ahead with the cover photo, which fans later learned was modeled by Lanazia Greene, who told Complex, “The reaction was insane. I didn’t think that it would at all go crazy the way that it did.”
You can listen to P4 on all DSPs at midnight on 4/26.
Taylor Swift only just released her new album, The Tortured Poets Department, this past Friday, but the early returns indicate that people really like it. Here’s an example: Spotify just announced that on April 22, The Tortured Poets Department has racked up over 1 billion streams on the platform, the most in Spotify history for a single week.
On April 22, 2024, Taylor Swift’s THE TORTURED POETS DEPARTMENT became Spotify’s most-streamed album in a single week. The album has surpassed 1 Billion streams since release.
That’s even more impressive considering the album was released on April 19, and the 22nd was just three days, less than half a week, later. As Variety notes, the album topped 300 million streams on its first day, so if it maintained that pace, hitting a billion about three days later checks out.
Beyond that, The Post Malone-featuring “Fortnight” became the most-streamed song in a single day ever on Spotify during its first day. That same day, Tortured Poets and Swift herself set the records for most-streamed album and artist on Spotify in a day, respectively.
Back to the first-week record: That was previously held by… Swift’s own Midnights. Those full numbers don’t appears to have been revealed, but it has been estimated that it was somewhere in the 700,000 range.
Worth noting is that The Tortured Poets Department: The Anthology, an expanded version of the album released immediately after the base edition, is especially long with its 31 tracks, which has certainly helped the album rack up its lofty streaming figures.
Jayden Daniels won’t have to wait long to hear his name called on Thursday night when the 2024 NFL Draft gets underway. The reigning Heisman Trophy winner out of LSU is widely expected to be selected No. 2 overall by the Washington Commanders, but even if they go in another direction, it’s hard to imagine him falling outside the top 6 picks.
Like every prospect, this year’s Draft is the culmination of years of hard work and seeking out that right opportunity to shine and showcase his full talents. After starting his career at Arizona State, Daniels transferred to LSU where he spent two seasons under Brian Kelly. His first year was solid, but his second was spectacular, as he threw for 3,812 yards, 40 touchdowns, and just four interceptions, while rushing for 1,134 yards and 10 touchdowns. In Daniels’ eyes, growing in one particular area helped.
“I would say my decisiveness,” Daniels told Uproxx Sports when asked what he improved most in his time at LSU. “That came with the trust and the relationship that I built with the whole offense — the O-line, the running backs, and the receivers especially. Trust them to go out there and make a play, put the ball in their area, and nine times out of 10 they made the play.”
Daniels certainly had good reason to trust those receivers, as Malik Nabers and Brian Thomas Jr. are projected first round picks in their own right. Still, there’s a process of building that trust that has to happen, and Daniels has some firsthand experience from transferring into a new environment at LSU that can help him as he makes the move to the NFL.
“Coming in at ASU, you come in with your recruiting class so you kind of already know half the people and you really just got to bond with the other people. But coming to LSU, I was really the only one in my class at that point. I didn’t know anybody, so it just came with time,” Daniels explained. “You know, building relationships, showing people how hard I work, how I lead. And on the field, once you make plays you start getting the respect and the trust of others, and then being able to relate to them, having fun and talking to different people within the locker room. Stuff like that, it means a lot. I mean, you can’t really get those moments back.”
Daniels cherishes those moments and opportunities to build those bonds that go outside the lines. He’s naturally laid back and easy going off the field, noting his favorite thing to do is just “hanging out with my boys,” whether that’s going bowling, playing video games, or whatever else. However, he’s able to flip that switch once it’s time to go to work.
In his time at LSU, Daniels was given a lot of the responsibilities he’ll now be asked to take on at the NFL level. The Tigers aren’t a “check with me” offense, and it was his job to get LSU into the right protection and right checks when needed, which he believes gives him a leg up as he comes into the league.
“It helped me out a lot,” Daniels said of the responsibility LSU gave him. “The pressure that they put on me as far as getting everybody lined up, protections, run checks, run looks, stuff like that based off of different fronts or coverages and things like that. So, it helped me out a lot. That’s stuff that I’m gonna be asked to do at the next level. So it prepared me for that, and now it’s time to take it up another notch.”
As for being able to shoulder that responsibility, he says it’s all about the work you do before the game.
“Really just the film work and the preparation throughout the week. How dedicated are you to the game? You know, the week of practice should be harder than the game,” Daniels said. “You’re kind of just getting all the answers to the test and when the test comes, you go out there and perform, you’re not really thinking about it. So making sure I stress myself out within the week with the preparation, try to get this look and try and get that look. And really once Saturday came, be able to go out there and not really think about playing football or think about anything, just go out and have fun.”
As he gets ready for Draft night, that commitment to preparation means something a little bit different. Daniels is among the many prospects joining forces with Head & Shoulders to make sure he’s looking right for his big moment on the stage in Detroit.
“Head & Shoulders, they take care of my hair and keep my hair looking great,” Daniels said. “So when I walk across the stage, you know I’m able to look my best. I’m really excited about the look that I put together [for Draft night].”
Whatever team that selects him, he’s tried to make sure they know his commitment to and passion for the game of football.
“I think when I got into the meetings, they’ve kind of seen everything on tape of how I am as a player. They asked me, they kind of know that I’m competitive, they do their homework and stuff like that,” Daniels said. “I’m joyful, obviously. Having fun with my guys when they score a touchdown, really just smiling, and things like that. But as a person, really just letting them know how dedicated I am to my craft and the passion I have for football. Obviously, I love football. It helped me out a lot growing up and getting to this point now, so that stuff I wanted them to know.”
When I think of “destructive” sex scenes, the first thing that comes to mind is Edward Cullen apparently busting up the headboard during the honeymoon sequence of Breaking Dawn — Part 1. And when I think of Bridgerton sex scenes, the term “female gaze” surfaces as well as John Oliver’s “jizzing in blankets.” However, the third Bridgerton season does something different, which is to edge into Cullen territory?
That’s not entirely accurate without context, but there was broken furniture, according to star Nicola Coughlan (Penelope Featherington/Lady Whistledown). As PEOPLE relays, The Derry Girls actress told 7 News Australia that reports were true: she and co-star Luke Newton (Colin Bridgerton) did bust up something. A bed? A sofa? A chaise lounge? Coughlan did not clarify but simply declared, “Yeah, hell yeah we did.”
Bridgerton stars Nicola Coughlan and Luke Newton talk on breaking pieces of furniture whilst filming more intimate scenes in season 3. Bridgerton Part One hits Netflix May 16. #Bridgerton#Bridgertonseason3#celebnews#7NEWS
It’s something to look forward to. As well, Coughlan recently told Decider that “the sex scenes in Bridgerton, they take days to film.” Well, no wonder the furniture couldn’t hold up. Even without the resident “Regency F*ckboy” on the scene, this show cannot stop with the randy displays.
Need more? Coughlan also detailed how she and Newton “lounged naked” in between takes, rather than get dressed. They did so under the covers, but still! This show sure knows its audience.
Bridgerton‘s third season (the first half) arrives on May 16.
This month marks the 40th anniversary of Talking Heads‘ concert film, Stop Making Sense.

Tickets go on sale this Friday (April 26).
Everyone’s Getting Involved: A Tribute To Talking Heads’ Stop Making Sense is out 5/17 via A24 Music. Find more information here.
A lot of last names can be traced to occupations. If your surname is Miller, for instance, one of your ancestors probably worked (toiled) at a mill back in the day. Same with Butler, Smith, Taylor, etc. This tradition continues today with Hugh Jackman, whose profession is Jacked Man.
Following the release of the latest Deadpool & Wolverine trailer, there was speculation online about how the 55-year-old Jackman, back again as Wolverine, got so ripped. Some even wondered if there was digital trickery involved. That’s not the case, according to Deadpool creator Rob Liefeld.
“Hey, I was right there in person and those massive Hugh Jackman biceps are the REAL DEAL. Dude was jacked!!” he wrote on X. “I’ve been seeing folks talk of him wearing fake muscles… WHAT??? No. I touched em!”

This reminds me of something It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia star (and friend of Deadpool star Ryan Reynolds) Rob McElhenney once said about how he got jacked. “Look, it’s not that hard. All you need to do is lift weights six days a week, stop drinking alcohol, don’t eat anything after 7pm, don’t eat any carbs or sugar at all, in fact just don’t eat anything you like, get the personal trainer from Magic Mike, sleep nine hours a night, run three miles a day, and have a studio pay for the whole thing over a six to seven month span,” he wrote on Instagram. “I don’t know why everyone’s not doing this. It’s a super realistic lifestyle and an appropriate body image to compare oneself to.”
You, too, can look Jackman and McElhenney if you follow those simple steps!
Madison Beer is keeping the modern classics. Yesterday (April 24), the main pop girly shared the video for her single “Make You Mine,” which features her recreating an iconic thriller.
The song itself features Beer detailing a newfound fixation.
“I wanna feel the rush / I wanna taste the crush / I wanna get you going / I wanna lay you down / I wanna string you out / I wanna make you mine,” she sings on the song’s chorus, over an intoxicating, pulsating beat.
In the video, Beer channels Jennifer Check and Needy Lesnicky, characters played by Megan Fox and Amanda Seyfried, respectively, in the 2009 film, Jennifer’s Body. As the characters, Beer recreates several scenes from the movie, including the iconic walk down the hallway, the pool scene, and the dance scene.
In a recent interview with Billboard, Beer said “Make You Mine” is her favorite song she’s made to date.
“It’s just so fun, such a feel-good song,” Beer said. “It’s sexy, it’s infectious. I haven’t played it for anyone that hasn’t just like [started] dancing and felt immediately hotter after listening to it, and that’s always how I want to make people feel.”
March was a major month for Schoolboy Q fans, as the rapper dropped Blue Lips, his first album since 2019’s Crash Talk. The project features collaborations with folks like Ab-Soul, AzChike, Freddie Gibbs, and Rico Nasty, and has been regarded by some critics as one of Schoolboy’s best albums yet. If that sounds like something you’d want to see live on stage, the good news is that Schoolboy has decided to take the album on tour.
The bad news is that as it stands now, he’s offering relatively limited opportunities to see it. Yesterday (April 24), the rapper announced Blue Lips Weekends, a series of concerts in July and August that, yes, take place during the weekends, allowing for a relatively relaxed touring schedule.
Information about specific venues isn’t available yet, but we do know that the tour will hit major cities like Toronto, Chicago, Atlanta, Brooklyn, San Francisco, and Seattle, among others. Tickets aren’t for sale yet, but fans can RSVP here to be notified when more information is available.

The Simpsons characters aren’t supposed to die. They’re supposed to live forever in background gags and flashback episodes. Moleman will get the last laugh and outlast us all. There have been a few permanent deaths in Springfield, however, including Fat Tony (good thing he has a look-alike cousin named Fit Tony), Maude Flanders (regrettably), and now, Larry Dalrymple.
“Who,” even the most hardcore Simpsons fan might be wondering?
Larry the barfly, as he’s better known, has been on the show since the first episode, “Simpsons Roasting on an Open Fire,” almost exclusively in scenes set at Moe’s Tavern. He’s the drunk who isn’t Sam. Sadly, Larry met his maker in season 35’s “Cremains of the Day.” He died doing what he loved: drinking beer at Moe’s. “I don’t like the sound of that squish,” Carl says after Moe pokes Larry’s corpse with a mop. He’s later described as a “sad, balding drunk who hung out at Moe’s.” RIP. Pour out a 40 of Duff Dry in his honor.
The Simpsons executive producer Tim Long told TMZ that “he’s sorry to those fans upset about the death, and the sad episode in general… but, he says he likes that fans seemed to take it as hard as Homer and the gang did during the episode — because it speaks to how beloved the show still is.”
