On Wednesday, ABC dropped the first full trailer to its spin-off The Rookie: Feds. As previously reported, Niecy Nash-Betts stars in the series, reprising her Rookie role of Simone Clark, a plain-talking newbie FBI agent. 

The flagship show’s John Nolan, played by Nathan Fillion, also appears in the new clip, showing there will be crossover between the two Los Angeles-based programs.

“I need outside-the-box thinkers who keep things low-key, and that’s just not you,” says Simone’s new boss, the by-the-book Special Agent Matthew Garza, played by Felix Solis.

A colleague advises Simone to not ruffle any feathers during her six-month probationary period, to which the new fed replies, “I don’t got that kinda time. I’m not 25! I gotta shine right out the gate!”

She proves it later in the trailer by snagging some of a fleeing suspect’s DNA underneath her perfectly done acrylic nails — appropriate for the former Claws star. “Pretty good, right?” she laughs. 

The show kicks off September 27 on ABC.

Though Gabby Barrett is now a country music superstar, she still gets starstruck. 

Looking back on when she started her career as a contestant on American Idol, the “I Hope” singer admits her most embarrassing fangirl moment was when she met Carrie Underwood when she served as a mentor during the 16th season. 

“I met her and was so excited that I cried,” Gabby recalls

As for who she’d want to portray her in a movie about her life, Gabby selects fellow country queen Dolly Parton. But despite being a country fan, the Pennsylvania native’s first concert was pop supergroup One Direction.

Daryl Hall & John Oates‘ 2003 studio album Do It for Love will be released on vinyl for the first time on September 30 — and will also be reissued on CD.

The Do It for Love reissue, which can be preordered now, will be available as a two-LP set and on CD in a gatefold digipak.

The 14-track collection is Hall & Oates’ 16th studio effort, which features three singles that reached the top 20 on Billboard‘s Adult Contemporary chart; the title track, “Man on a Mission” and “Getaway Car,” reached #1, #7 and #16, respectively.

The album also includes a cover of the 1999 New Radicals song “Someday We’ll Know” featuring a guest appearance by Todd Rundgren. Rundgeen, who has a long history with Hall & Oates, served as producer of the duo’s 1974 album, War Babies, and toured with Daryl earlier this year.

Do It for Love was partly recorded in London and includes contributions from songwriters and producers who’d worked with a variety of contemporary pop artists.

Reflecting on the making of the album, Oates says, “It was interesting for me to record for the first time in London. Working with a new team of producers during a time when pop music was in transition from the mega success of the ‘Boy Band’ craze while at the same time trying to preserve the integrity and sound that Daryl and I had created over the years.”

You can check out new lyric videos for “Do It for Love” and “Man on a Mission” at Hall & Oates’ official YouTube channel.

Here’s the two-LP version of the album’s full track list:

Side A
“Man on a Mission”
“Do It for Love”
“Someday We’ll Know” — featuring Todd Rundgren

Side B
“Forever for You”
“Life’s Too Short”
“Getaway Car
“Make You Stay”

Side C
“Miss DJ”

John Legend celebrated his ninth wedding anniversary Wednesday by releasing his “Wonder Woman” music video in tribute to his wife, Chrissy Teigen.

In 2013 Elderkin directed the video for Legend’s signature song, the 14-times Platinum hit “All of Me,” which was dedicated to Teigen.

Modest Mouse is the latest act to launch a shop with the online gear marketplace Reverb.

“We dragged these amps all around the world for the first 10 years of the band,” Modest Mouse says. “If these two Fender Super Sixes could speak, they would be advised to keep their mouths shut.”

The Modest Mouse Reverb shop will open September 21. For more info, visit Reverb.com.

Other artists who’ve sold their gear on Reverb include Green Day, Blink-182‘s Mark Hoppus and The Smashing PumpkinsBilly Corgan.

Modest Mouse, meanwhile, just announced a tour celebrating the 25h anniversary of The Lonesome Crowded West. The outing kicks off in November.

Adele is continuing her real estate wheeling and dealing in LA.

According to the real estate website Dirt, she’s put the house she bought last year from her friend Nicole Richie on the market for $12 million — two million bucks more than she paid for it in 2021. The 5,500 square-foot house features three bedrooms, three-and-a-half baths, a gourmet kitchen, fireplaces, “assistant’s room,” gym, pool and sports court.

The home is right next door to the house where Adele lived until earlier this year, when she moved into Sylvester Stallone‘s $58 million former mansion — possibly along with her boyfriend, Rich Paul. Neighbors include Jennifer Lawrence, Zoe Saldaña, Nicole Kidman and Penelope Cruz.

As Dirt notes, Adele also owns the $10 million mansion across the street from those two homes; that’s where her ex-husband, Simon Konecki, reportedly lives.

Garth Brooks is in the midst of a string of sold-out stadium shows at Dublin’s Croke Park to end his Stadium Tour, and as he takes the stage, he’s back in fighting shape.

“I’m the same weight I was when I played here in ‘97, that’s what I want,” Garth told media outlets before the shows, according to the Irish Mirror, joking that the cameras capturing his performances will add all the weight back.

“The film is going to come,” he continued. “I lost 50 lbs and the film is going to add that right back.”

Garth explains that for years, his priorities were simply different: He was raising kids, and didn’t need to maintain a rigorous workout routine in order to play demanding stages. “For 16 years, I was a soccer dad,” he points out.

“And it takes a while to get back to the artist feel,” Garth explains. “It has taken me eight years to get back to it.”
