Kylie Jenner and Travis Scott on Monday shared a video dedicated to their newborn son, Wolf.
In the 10-minute YouTube montage titled “To Our Son,” the proud parents reveal clips from throughout Kylie’s pregnancy all the way up to the birth. Messages from family members — including Kylie’s mom Kris Jenner and Travis’ mom Wanda Webster — are interspersed as well.
The couple welcomed Wolf Webster on February 2, 2022. The baby boy joins big sister Stormi, who turned four the day before her brother was born.
Dolly Parton‘s new book is getting the feature treatment — with a little help from Reese Witherspoon.
Two weeks after the release of Run, Rose, Run, which Dolly co-wrote with author James Patterson, the novel is now being adapted into a feature film co-produced by Dolly, Reese, James and Hello Sunshine, a media company founded by the Academy Award-winning actress.
Dolly is set to star in the film, which follows an aspiring country singer who moves to Nashville with a collection of songs inspired by a dark secret from her past. The book was released on March 7 and became a New York Times bestseller, debuting at #1. It was accompanied by an album of the same name featuring original songs by Dolly.
“I’m proud, excited and honored to be working with my good friend Reese Witherspoon and Hello Sunshine on the movie of Run, Rose, Run from the novel I co-wrote with James Patterson. James and I love Reese and look forward to working with her and her wonderful team,” Dolly says in a statement.
“Growing up in Nashville, I’ve loved Dolly since the moment I heard her magical voice and saw her luminous personality shine onstage. Beyond her magnetic presence as an artist and performer, she is one of the greatest songwriters and storytellers of our time,” praises Reese, calling the fellow Tennessee native an “icon.”
“My admiration for her grew to even greater heights when reading Run, Rose, Run, a gripping and heartbreaking book I couldn’t put down,” Reese continues. “I couldn’t feel more honored to be working alongside her and James to bring this remarkable story to the screen.”
Thomas Rhett has been busily autographing copies of the vinyl version of new album, Where We Started, and he decided to have a little fun in the process.
On one copy, he decided to draw a fake neck tattoo onto the picture of himself on the album cover. For the famously family-oriented country star, no tattoo will do but a picture of his wife, Lauren, and so he tried his hand at drawing her portrait.
“When it comes to drawing, I may be the worst artist that exists,” TR says in a social media video explaining the incident.
“I’ve always thought about getting a new tattoo, and I thought I would test it out on one of these vinyl covers,” he continues. “So I drew a picture of Lauren on my neck, and this is how it turned out.”
He then panned the camera over to the vinyl, with a stick-figure, smiling drawing of a woman unrecognizable as his wife, complete with long, spaghetti-like hair.
“Love you babe,” Thomas adds, with a smile.
It doesn’t look like the tattooed vinyl is available in his merch store, but you can pick up your autographed vinyl of Where We Started, or perhaps a signed CD or an audio cassette with exclusive commentary. Where We Started will be out April 1.
Glass Animals still have the number-one song in the U.S., but this week, Imagine Dragons celebrates a nice achievement: their first top 10 since 2018.
Glass Animals’ “Heat Waves” tops the Billboard Hot 100 for a third week out of 61 weeks in total on the chart. Only a few other songs have hung around on the Hot 100 for 61 weeks or longer: Post Malone‘s “Circles,” The Weeknd’s “Save Your Tears,” Adele‘s “Rolling in the Deep,” LMFAO‘s “Party Rock Anthem,” and The Weeknd’s “Blinding Lights,” which is the champ with 90 weeks.
Meanwhile, “Enemy,” by Imagine Dragons and JID — which is seen heard in each new episode of the Netflix animated series Arcane: League of Legends — has jumped from #12 to number eight on the Hot 100. It’s ID’s fifth career top 10, and their first since “Thunder” was in the upper reaches of the chart in late 2017/early 2018.
“Enemy” is also in the top 10 on the Adult Pop and Pop Airplay charts.
Imagine Dragons’ highest-charting song to date is “Radioactive,” which peaked at number three in 2013.

Camila will make her second appearance on SNL as a musical guest on April 9. Her new album, Familia, drops April 8. The guest host that night will be Jake Gyllenhaal. Hmm…Camila and Taylor Swift are friends, so things might get awkward.

For NBC’s American Song Contest, debuting tonight, artists representing all 50 U.S. states, plus five territories and the District of Columbia, will compete to win America’s votes for the best song. Representing the great state of Connecticut is none other than Michael Bolton, and his entry in the contest is available for you to check out now.
The song is called “Beautiful World” — an upbeat, positive song about looking forward to a brighter tomorrow. Michael sings, “All our needs, our hopes and our dreams, still waiting on an open door/I see a spark of light in the dark we’ll be stronger than before.”
“We gotta love like we’ve never been hurt/we’ve gotta rise like we’ve never been burned/and after all of the lessons we’ve learned, we’re gonna make this a beautiful world,” Michael sings. Later in the song, he spells it out: “When we come together/everything’s gonna be much better.”
Michael will be among 11 artists who will perform their original songs tonight for the live studio audience, the viewers, and hosts Kelly Clarkson and Snoop Dogg. If that seems an odd pairing, it turns out the two first met nearly 20 years ago.
Kelly tells Entertainment Tonight, “Well, I don’t remember what award show it was, but it was a long time ago. It was early 2000s, right after I ended up winning Idol, and I was performing at a show and [Snoop and I] passed each other and he said my name…I was like, ‘You know my name?’ I was freaking out. I thought it was so cool.”
NBC’s American Song Contest premieres tonight at 8 p.m. ET.

The ceremony will be livestreamed at WalkofFame.com.
