WWE is bringing more star power from the music world to Sunday Night’s Main Event, with hip-hop artist Quavo set to take the stage for a special performance.
WWE confirmed the news on its official website. “Hip Hop Superstar Quavo will open Sunday Night’s Main Event in his hometown of Atlanta, performing an unreleased track off his upcoming album QROMELIFE, due out on all platforms soon,” WWE wrote.
“A lifelong fan of WWE, Quavo has made appearances at WWE Day 1, where his group Migos’ song ‘Straightenin’ was the official theme song for the PLE, took in WWE Bad Blood at ringside alongside Lil Yachty, and Yeeted alongside ‘Main Event’ Jey Uso on Raw in January of 2025.”
The “HOTEL LOBBY (Unc & Phew)” singer won’t be the only musical artist at the event as rapper Lil Yachty will face WWE United States Champion Baron Corbin later in the show. Should Yachty survive five minutes in the ring with Corbin, his friend and WWE star Trick Williams will earn a championship rematch against Corbin on the same night.

Elsewhere at Sunday Night’s Main Event, former friends Randy Orton and Cody Rhodes will collide in a WrestleMania 42 rematch. “The Viper” returned at SummerSlam to ensure that Rhodes lost his Undisputed WWE Championship bout against CM Punk. Now, they’ll face off once more, with tensions higher than ever.
Two of WWE’s biggest titans, Bron Breakker and Oba Femi, will also wrestle each other to determine who is the true future of the company. In six-woman tag team competition, former world champions Charlotte Flair and Alexa Bliss will partner with Tatum Paxley to take on Jade Cargill, B-Fab, and Michin.
WWE Sunday Night’s Main Event will emanate from the State Farm Arena in Atlanta, Georgia on Sept. 6, streaming live on Peacock in the United States and YouTube internationally.
Nearly four months after their stunning WWE departures, Kofi and Austin Creed made their highly anticipated AEW debuts on Sunday at the All In pay-per-view.
Their thrilling debuts couldn’t have gone better, either. Kofi and Creed teamed up with Swerve Strickland in the Trios Roulette Royale to claim the AEW World Trios Championship.
Kofi and Creed performed as Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods in WWE, respectively. Since 2014, they were part of the legendary New Day stable, along with Big E, before the latter had to retire after a career-ending neck injury in 2022.
In a recent Q&A session, TC of WrestleVotes (h/t Ringside News) reported that one WWE source thinks the company is feeling some “regret” over the decision to move on from New Day.
“I did meet up with a source in WWE,” T. “He told me that this is the first time he thinks there is regret on WWE’s side of things for not having them come back. This is the first time there is a disconnect between TKO and WWE. The person I spoke to today said, ‘You know what? Maybe TKO mismanaged this one.’ People in WWE never wanted to see them leave.”
Other notable WWE talents to leave in 2026 include Apollo Crews, Sheamus, Aleister Black, Zelina Vega, Kairi Sane and the Wyatt Sicks stable.

With an all-star cast, The Hunger Games prequel Sunrise on The Reaping is providing all the glitz and glamour of the Capitol. The film, based on the Suzanne Collins book of the same name, sees some of the franchise’s most iconic characters almost a quarter of a century before the original Hunger Games story takes place.
Oscar winner Kieran Culkin will take over from Stanley Tucci, and Elle Fanning will portray a younger Elizabeth Banks, portraying two of the games’ most eccentric characters, Caesar Flickerman and Effie Trinket, respectively. Ralph Fiennes will portray President Coriolanus Snow and Jesse Plemons will play Plutarch Heavensbee, originally performed by late actors Philip Seymour Hoffman and Donald Sutherland. Newcomer Joseph Zada will take on the lead role as Haymitch Abernathy (originally played by Woody Harrelson), with the film following the young tribute’s experiences as a Hunger Games tribute.
The highly-anticipated prequel is set to premiere in November this year, with a planned streaming window with Lionsgate Films’ partners in the months following its release.
‘The Hunger Games: Sunrise on The Reaping’ Prime Video Streaming Window, Explained
Lionsgate has its own streaming service, Starz, which becomes the automatic first-stop streaming home of all of the studio’s properties, once the theatrical and Premium Video on Demand (PVOD) windows come to an end.
Lionsgate also has a streaming deal with Amazon Prime Video, where films will reach the much larger streamer after making its debut on Starz. Major hits for the studio, such as Now You See Me: Now You Don’t or The Housemaid, are some of the most famous examples of the theatrical-Starz-Prime trajectory (per The Hollywood Reporter).
The average gap between a Lionsgate theatrical debut and its arrival on Starz is roughly 4 and-a-half months, according to data collected by 3Vision. This seems to be the case for the Lionsgate Michael Jackson biopic Michael, which premiered in late April and is set to join Starz on August 10.
With this in mind, and given that The Hunger Games: Sunrise on the Reaping is set to premiere theatrically on November 20, the film should reach Starz by Friday, 29 January 2027, which is 10 weeks from that date. There is no solid data, however, that has been published regarding the average window between Starz and Amazon Prime Video.
However, a recent Forbes report estimated Michael would arrive on Prime from Starz around late 2026 or early 2027, giving the film a good few months to half a year on the smaller platform. Should this trajectory happen again for The Hunger Games, fans of the franchise who want to stream the video on Prime should expect it around the Summer 2027 mark.
The first game of the NFL season is right around the corner, so while we’re waiting I figured I should try to predict who will win each division. I already wrote about the AFC, you can check that out by clicking the link below. Now it is time for the NFC.
Let’s start off with what could be the best division in football. Last year the Seattle Seahawks topped the division with a 14-3 record with the Los Angeles Rams coming in second place at 12-5. The Seahawks and Rams would ultimately face off in the NFC Championship game with Seattle coming out on top. The 49ers had a solid season going 12-5 and the Cardinals… well they didn’t do so well posting a 3-14 record. I think it will once again come down to the Seahawks and Rams, but this time with the addition of Myles Garrett and Aaron Donald the Rams will take the crown from Seattle.
NFC East
The Philadelphia Eagles have won this division each of the past two years, winning the Super Bowl in 2024. The Washington Commanders fell off after a great 2024 campaign and the Cowboys remained mediocre, slightly improving on their 7-10 record by way of a tie, finishing 2025 out at 7-9-1. The New York Giants looked fun to start the season but struggled with injuries down the stretch. I think that the Eagles will once agian win this division, with the Cowboys right behind them. I’m not sure if the Giants have done enough to improve and the Commanders are in for another long season.
NFC North
The NFC North is another solid division, with the Bears winning it last season at 11-9, the Packers coming in second at 9-7-1, the Vikings going 9-8 and the Lions going 8-9. I think that the first place schedule might hold Chicago back from repeating and if Jordan Love and the Packers stay healthy I expect them to take first place this season, with the Vikings and Lions likely hovering around the same records as last season.
NFC South
There’s a pretty popular meme about how each fanbase in the South thinks they can win because the other teams are so bad. That makes it a bit difficult to predict which team will end up on top because none of these teams are particularly great. Last year the Carolina Panthers won the division at 8-9 with the Buccaneers and Falcons losing out on tiebreakers with the same record. The Saints finished 6-11 but they might have one of the better up and coming quarterbacks. For that reason I’m picking the Saints to shock everyone and win the South. The division is no stranger to a team coming in last and then winning the division as it happened many times after realignment.
So where do you think I’m wrong? Where am I right? Let me know in the comments.
“Choosin’ Texas” is choosin’ to stay at the top of the Billboard Hot 100. The Ella Langley mega-hit has shattered a record on the aforementioned chart, remaining in the No. 1 spot for a whopping 20 weeks. It’s officially the longest run ever for a non-holiday song.
Ella Langley’s ‘Choosin’ Texas’ Is Longest-Running No. 1 Non-Holiday Song
Langley released the track on Oct. 17, 2025, as the first single from her sophomore studio album, Dandelion. The country star co-wrote it with Miranda Lambert, Luke Dick, and Joybeth Taylor. It’s Langley’s first No. 1 single on the Hot 100, entering said chart on Nov. 1, 2025, at No. 39 before climbing to the top spot on Feb. 14, 2026. The song has also dominated the US Hot Country Songs and US Country Airplay charts.
Per Billboard, “Choosin’ Texas” is the second track in the chart’s 68-year history to hold this distinction, the first being, you guessed it, Mariah Carey‘s “All I Want for Christmas Is You,” which had a 22-week run at No. 1. Carey’s Christmas classic has returned to the Hot 100 every year since its first No. 1 in 2019.
Langley expressed delight over the tune’s popularity. “We loved the song when we wrote it, but none of us thought that it would be the song to do everything it’s doing. It keeps giving us a reason to celebrate new milestones.”
“Choosin’ Texas” has amassed 24.2 million streams and a remarkable 56.8 million radio airplay impressions. Beyond the US, the country smash hit has skyrocketed to the top of the charts in Australia, Canada, Ireland, and New Zealand. It also peaked at No. 3 in the UK.
Disaster movies are getting a drag makeover, in Stop! That! Train!, the RuPaul-led parody film which will be coming to Netflix next month.
Directed by Adam Shankman, the filmmaker behind The Pacifier, Hairspray, and Rock of Ages, this campy train twist on films like Airplane! or Snakes on a Plane was met with praise from critics.
Stop! That! Train! is a “bonkers, star-studded, disaster comedy that follows best friends Tess and DeeDee, train stewardesses who must join forces with the snobby first class attendants and US President Judy Gagwell (RuPaul) to save the day when a catastrophic ‘Stormaganza’ threatens to derail the high-speed train,” Universal’s official synopsis reads.
Universal Pictures has a theater-to-streaming deal with Peacock and Netflix, in which both streaming services will be granted the rights to include the studio’s films in their libraries for a fixed period of time. The terms of the agreement state that a Universal film will stay in theaters for a maximum of 120 days before moving to Peacock’s streaming service for 4 months.
Once that period is over, Netflix picks up the license for the Universal film for 10 months. After those 10 months are complete, Peacock will have the streaming rights to said film once more, per What’s on Netflix’s report on the partnership.
However, just like how Stop! That! Train! isn’t your typical disaster movie, the film won’t have your typical streaming trajectory, and is facing a bit of a diversion. Normally, the film would be on Peacock by around Sunday, 10 October, based on its U.S. theatrical release date of June 12, the comedy is going full speed ahead and arriving straight on Netflix on September 20, way ahead of its original trajectory for streaming. The film may arrive at Peacock in the near future, but with RuPaul and co. at the helm, anything can happen.
When it comes to swinging, open relationships, and other forms of polyamory, you might be forgiven for assuming that these are practices more common in highly populated, urban, coastal cities. But that’s not necessarily the case, according to new research.
Referred to by those in the know as ‘the Lifestyle,’ curiosity in swinging is on the up. A new study by adult company Joy Love Dolls pulled Google search data on 55 swinging-related search terms, such as ‘hookup sites for couples,’ ‘swingers,’ and ‘wife swapping,’ to produce a realistic picture of where interest in ‘the Lifestyle’ lies across the entire country. The search terms were calculated per 100,000 people in each state, so that a place like Wyoming, which has a population of 584,000, could be weighed against California’s 39 million residents.
Here’s a breakdown of how each state ranks on the swinging-curious meter, and tips on how to find other couples in your state if you want to take the next step.
Which States Are the Most Swinging-Curious?
Delaware has the highest number of swinging-related monthly searches at 1,885, which works out to 183 per 100,000 residents. That’s 71 percent above the national average of 107. The more densely populated Pennsylvania comes in at a very close second, with 182 monthly searches per 100,000 residents, although it actually has the highest number of average monthly searches, with 23,624 across its populace of almost 13 million.
Why Are Couples in Certain States More Curious Than Others?
You’ll notice that eight of the top 10 states in the rankings are on the East Coast, while the bottom five are all plains and mountains states with smaller populations, which makes a certain degree of sense.
Amy Nguyen, sex education expert at Joy Love Dolls, explains that the geographic split in the study could possibly be down to factors like visibility and social acceptance. “You just see more of this lifestyle on the East Coast—more clubs, more events, more of an established scene, and that rubs off on search behavior,” she said. “But just searching for something doesn’t mean someone is taking part in it. A higher search volume could simply mean people are curious about the swinging lifestyle and what it involves.”
Finding other couples in your area who are also interested in swinging often starts online.
According to Justin Lehmiller, Ph.D., Senior Research Fellow at the Kinsey Institute and Intimacy Advisor for the dating app Feeld, attitudes around consensual non-monogamy (and sexuality more broadly) can vary regionally. “Areas with more sexually liberal attitudes may contribute to people feeling freer to explore diverse relationship structures and to openly identify as non-monogamous,” he explains. “In areas where it’s more stigmatized, there are still lots of people who are interested in swinging, but they may be less likely to disclose that information.”
There is some research to back this up. A recent study by Feeld found that there’s a certain “geography” to sexual practices. For example, they found that people in the Pacific Northwest were the kinkiest, which aligns with the public perception that cities like Portland and Seattle have more sexually open cultures.
How to Connect With Other Swinging-Curious Couples in Your State
If you’re interested in exploring swinging or connecting with likeminded individuals, it’s easy to start that process online. Dating apps like Feeld cater to people who are interested in non-monogamy and other forms of sexual exploration.
“You might also search for swingers’ organizations in your local area,” says Lehmiller. “These platforms can make it easier to connect with people who share the same interests.”
The most important thing for any couple considering the Lifestyle, Nguyen believes, is actually what happens before they try it. “Both partners need to be on board first,” she explains. “Nobody should go along with it just to keep somebody happy; that never ends well. The healthiest experiences tend to happen when couples talk things through properly first and both partners feel equally comfortable before taking things any further.”

Clubs get all of the attention, but the right pair of golf shoes is also a key piece of gear for anyone looking to reduce their handicap (or at least spend a few hours on the course every now and then). As it does with pretty much every other kind of athletic footwear, Adidas makes some great golf shoes, so it’s big news that Amazon has one of them on sale with a massive discount.
The Adidas Men’s MC87 Boa Spikeless Golf Shoes are on sale for as little as $44 at Amazon, 78% off their normal $200 price tag. This particular price is good on the size 14 shoes, but plenty of others have great discounts, including $47 for size 10, $49 for size 11, and $80 for size 12, the latter of which is still a 60% discount. All sizes from 7 to 14 are also available as of publishing, so almost everyone should be able to find a new pair of golf shoes. We should also note that these discounts only apply to the Footwear White/Iron Metallic/Core Black colorway and not the full-price Off White/Collegiate Navy, which actually retails for even more, $280, on Amazon. It’s all a bit annoying, but there are very good, very cheap golf shoes to be had for those who prefer spikeless designs.
These shoes have a waterproof leather upper and faux leather insole that keeps feet dry even on soggy greens. Lightstrike cushioning in the insole absorbs shock with every swing, and the Torsion system — a thermoplastic bar embedded in the bottom of the sole designed to increase flexibility and stability simultaneously — helps keep you grounded for more powerful drives even without spikes. The outsoles are made of rubber that provides superior traction, and the look combines the refinement of broguing and a fold-over tongue cover with a more modern, technical silhouette.
What makes these shoes truly unique, however, is the BOA system that’s hiding underneath that tongue. It replaces traditional laces with a crisscrossing network of thinner, more elastic cords. They all come together in a dial that can be turned to loosen or tighten the whole system. That makes micro-adjustments for the perfect fit possible, allowing for a more comfortable, precise fit that makes for better, more comfortable rounds.
One shopper wrote that these are “great shoes, and the BOA system makes them perfect.” They’re “super comfortable” and “fit beautifully” thanks to that unique system.
Another customer agreed that these are the “best leather style golf shoes I’ve ever worn,” because they’re both the “most comfortable and classy-looking” pair. “I’ve tried many other big brands and these by far are the most comfortable.”
The Adidas Men’s MC87 Boa Spikeless Golf Shoes are a beloved pair of golf shoes. Getting a pair for less than $100 is a heck of a deal, so the chance to grab one for as little as $44 is truly remarkable. Do yourself a favor and upgrade to this pair today; your feet and your wallet won’t regret it.
Sharing my version of the amazing Whole Foods red lentil dal soup, which is one of my very favorites. It’s gluten-free, dairy free, and a plant-based source of protein and nutrients.
Hi friends! How’s the week going so far? I’m in content creation mode for something new I’m working on and doing the usual school and sports scramble with the crew. Fall is officially in the air (jk it’s going to be like 100 here until November) but I like the pretend with a cozy bowl of soup.
I have a mental list of quick grab-and-go meals that I can swoop in a pinch, are healthy, and that I really enjoy. Thankfully, Tucson has a lot of amazing healthy restaurants, which makes it pretty easy. If I find myself in a bind and hangry in between picking up kids and running errands, it’s nice to know I have some faves I can easily pick up.
Whole Foods Red Lentil Dal Soup (copycat recipe)
This is one of my favorite easy healthy pickup meal options. I’ve had this lentil soup so many times this fall season already, I knew I needed to try to recreate it at home. The result is a super hearty, flavorful soup, with lots of nutrients, and is great with a large salad for lunch. It also freezes beautifully.
Here’s the recipe if you’d like to give it a try!
Ingredients:
One yellow onion, diced
2 carrots, peeled and chopped
2 ribs of celery, diced
3-4 cloves of garlic
1 knob of ginger, peeled and grated
2 cups dried red lentils, rinsed
1 can diced tomatoes
32 oz vegetable broth
Juice of 1 lime
Good pinch of cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon cumin
1 teaspoon curry powder
Turmeric
1/2 bag of spinach
1 can coconut milk
Salt and pepper
Instructions:
Step One
In the Instant Pot on saute setting, saute the onion, carrots, garlic, and celery for 2-3 minutes in olive oil, until softened and fragrant. Add in the tomatoes, ginger, lentils, and spices. Season well with salt and pepper.
Step two
Stir in the broth, seal the lid, and cook on soup setting for 20 minutes.
Step three
Allow the pressure to release naturally, and then stir in the lime juice, spinach, and coconut milk. Taste and adjust seasonings before serving. Top with some dairy-free yogurt and cilantro if you’d like!
Note: Allow to cool completely before storing in the fridge or freezer.
Here’s the full recipe. Please let me know if you decide to give it a whirl!

Hiiii! Happy Friday! How are you? I hope you’ve had a lovely week. It’s been a busy one over here. Behind the scenes, I’ve been working on a new program (more to come soon), subbed a barre class, and have the wrangling the crew. The girls are busy and thriving with school and their extracurricular activities, Lola is… on her doggy period (joy lol), and the Pilot has been traveling a lot.
We were able to get in a brunch date this week at the Hills, which was amazing. They have great food and a cozy vibe.
The rest of the weekend will be spent poolside, prepping for a content shoot on Monday, NCL event, and my dad’s bday dinner.
It’s time for the weekly Friday Faves roundup! This is where I share some of my favorite finds from the week and around the web. I always love hearing about your faves, too, so please shout out something you’re loving in the comments section below.

8.28 Friday Faves
Fashion, beauty, random:
Girls’ night! The perfect night of wine, chatting, and creme brulee at Fleming’s. The funny thing is that I hated creme brulee for YEARS and now that I’ve been gluten-free for three years and it’s usually one of the only gf desserts on the menu, I’m now a huge fan.
Fishing with the cousins. They came over for swimming last weekend and we went fishing at a nearby lake afterwards. It’s apparently stocked with bass, catfish and trout, but we didn’t catch anything. It doesn’t matter; the kids still loved it.
Don’t Say Good Luck on Netflix. I don’t know if I can call it a fave because I cried like a baby, but it was beautiful and well done. Liv loved it, too.
Ok friends, who are you cheering for in Dancing with the Stars: the Next Pro? I’m team Adele but think that all of the finalists are insanely talented.
