Ariana Grande’s hair color has been changed … for good?

The Wicked star traded in her Glinda blond for her natural brown, showing off a mirror selfie on her Instagram and captioning it with a quote from her character, “it’s good to see me, isn’t it?”

Ariana has been sporting blond hair since she started shooting the Wicked films back in 2022. The second film, Wicked: For Good, hits theaters Nov. 21.

As part of the press tour for the film, Ari is working with celebrity stylist Law Roach.

​​“Oh, baby, there’s a mood board,” Roach tells People. “There are hours and hours of fitting and laughing and swearing. It’s just a lot of daydreaming and imagination.”

Ari stepped out on Monday in a Glinda-inspired pink look styled by Roach. The Andreas Kronthaler for Vivienne Westwood spring 2025 dress featured a light pink, long-sleeved bodice and a hot pink silk skirt.

Doesn’t cut the mustard: Springsteen fan reveals ‘trivial mistake’ in ‘Deliver Me From Nowhere’

Most celebrity biopics aren’t 100% accurate, and now a fan has discovered one glaring error in the new Bruce Springsteen film Springsteen: Deliver me From Nowhere.

In early October, a fan on X who goes by the handle @GenZBruceFan posted, “They made a tiny trivial mistake about Bruce Springsteen’s life in Deliver Me from Nowhere,” adding, “It does not detract from the film but I clocked it immediately. I think I will reveal it around Halloween.”

It turns out the mistake had to do with Springsteen’s feelings on mustard. In the film, there’s a scene where Jeremy Allen White as Springsteen is asking his girlfriend’s daughter about the hot dog she just had, wondering if it had ketchup or mustard on it. When she says mustard, Springsteen says it’s his favorite, but it turns out the real Springsteen has been very vocal about hating the condiment.

To prove their point,@GenZBruceFan posted video of Springsteen going off on an anti-mustard rant during a concert.

“I used to order a ham sandwich with cheese and lettuce and a lot of mayonnaise but no mustard,” Springsteen explained in the clip. “Don’t give me no f***** Grey Poupon!”

But he didn’t stop there.

“I don’t like any mustard,” Springsteen said. “I don’t like it on my hot dog, I don’t like it on my sandwiches, no. So I would have ham, cheese, lettuce, a lot of mayonnaise on white bread.”

Springsteen: Deliver Me From Nowhere is now in theaters.

Tyler, The Creator has released a new song to celebrate the one-year anniversary of Chromakopia. “Mother,” he explains, was meant to be on the album before he made the last-minute decision to remove it.

“MOTHER was the first song i made for this project…its pretty much the grounding piece of the album,”
he wrote on Instagram after reflecting on the memories of his mother that played in his mind in 2020.

Tyler described his vision and approach for the album, which he reveals was nearly his final project before an extensive break. “i was planning on this being my last album for a VERY long time. release it. do the big tour. go disappear and only pop out for movies roles. see what a life is like without work being top of mind,” he wrote. “its hard tho, i love making things.”

He also discussed the response to Chromakopia, an album that “ended up taking me places the others didnt.”

“15 years in; biggest its ever been. im in awe of the success. and what a beautiful tour!” Tyler wrote. He thanked supporting acts Lil Yachty and Paris Texas for joining him on the trek, as well as those who attended the tour and supported the album.

“Its been a year since release, time is moving. to those who love this body of work, tell me about it,” he added. “i hope it holds weight in your life. thank you. what an incredible year.”

Simon Kirke has confirmed he’ll reunite with bandmate Paul Rodgers to perform when Bad Company is inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame.

“I think the secret is out that we will perform. I don’t know, I might get into trouble, but I saw some Google news that Bad Company will perform at the Hall of Fame (induction). So, I will cautiously say yes,” he revealed on the Lyndsanity! with Lyndsey Parker podcast. “I’m not at liberty to say which songs. I mean, quite honestly, I don’t give a s***. We’re gonna play, and whatever Paul chooses is fine by me.”

He added, “And just to play with him again is gonna be a real thrill for me, ’cause I missed him. I missed playing with the band. I miss playing particularly with Paul, ’cause he’s such a wonderful singer.”

Simon said he hasn’t heard Rodgers sing since their last show together over five years ago. Although Rodgers has gone through some health issues since then, Simon doesn’t seem to be worried about how he’ll sound.

“When you have a voice that naturally good, it’s gonna take a hell of a lot for it to fray or devalue,” he said. “So I think he’s going to be fine for the two songs that we’ve chosen.”

The 2025 Rock & Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremony will be held Nov. 8 in Los Angeles and will stream live on Disney+ starting at 8 p.m. ET. ABC will also air a highlights special on Jan. 1, 2026, at 8 p.m. ET.

Disney is the parent company of ABC News.

Daughtry is kicking off Halloween early with the new video for “THE BOTTOM.”

The clip finds frontman Chris Daughtry suddenly waking up to find himself buried underground. He then fights through the dirt to climb out of his premature grave and proceeds to rock out in front of a group of dancing zombies.

It then ends with Chris and his bandmates being consumed by light and exploding. You can watch “THE BOTTOM” video streaming now on YouTube.

“THE BOTTOM” is the current single off the new Daughtry EP, SHOCK TO THE SYSTEM (PART TWO), which dropped in September. The band is currently touring the U.S. alongside Seether.

Reneé Rapp has been forced to postpone a third show on her Bite Me tour.

After initially canceling her Sunday and Monday shows due to illness, the singer took to her Instagram Story to announce that her hometown Charlotte, North Carolina, show on Wednesday would also be rescheduled.

“As of right now, I still don’t have a voice. I’m recovering slowly,” she wrote. “But still not in a place where I am able to perform safely. I am so sorry and heartbroken that I have to postpone.”

“Again, I want to stress that I know the time and effort and preparation attending a show takes,” she continues. “I promise you it doesn’t go unnoticed or unseen. I’m taking this time to recover and then next week for these rescheduled shows I will give you the best version of me. The best version of this show that I love so much. The show you deserve to see.”

The Charlotte show will be rescheduled for Nov. 7, while her Tampa show will now take place on Nov. 4 and the Atlanta show will take place on Nov. 5. Those three shows will be the last U.S. dates before she heads to the U.K. and Europe early next year.
