As Taylor-loving turkey hopes for adoption, The Chainsmokers remix ‘The Fate of Ophelia’

November 25, 2025 by WDNY Radio

You don’t know the life of a turkey, babe — and you’re never gonna wanna. That’s why one particular turkey is looking to be adopted this Thanksgiving.

Serena is a formerly abused turkey who now lives at Farm Sanctuary in Watkins Glen, New York. The sanctuary posted a video of Serena listening to “Wi$h Li$t,” from Taylor Swift‘s new album, The Life of a Showgirl. The caption reads, “Our care team discovered Serena loves music, especially Taylor Swift! If you want to support Serena, speak now and make a difference in her life today!”

Since 1986, Farm Sanctuary has been running an Adopt a Turkey project, where donors can symbolically “adopt” a bird by donating $35 toward its care. The video says that Serena’s own holiday wish list includes “love & kindness,” “for you to skip the turkey dinner” and “sanctuary for all.”

In other Taylor news, “The Fate of Ophelia,” which has been #1 on the Hot 100 for seven weeks, has now been remixed by The Chainsmokers. You can download it now. Taylor co-signed it by posting a link to her Instagram Story.

Tasha Cobbs Leonard and John Legend top ‘Billboard”s Gospel Airplay chart with ‘Church’

November 25, 2025 by WDNY Radio

Tasha Cobbs Leonard and John Legend‘s praises have scored them a #1 hit. Their song “Church” now tops Billboard’s Gospel Airplay chart dated Nov. 29.

“The sound, the lyrics and the heart behind it seemed to resonate across audiences,” Cobbs Leonard tells Billboard when reacting to the news. “I’m so grateful to the stations who gave it a chance and to the listeners who kept showing up for it.”

While “Church” marks Tasha’s 10th Gospel Airplay leader, it’s the first time Legend has had a #1 on the chart. The song also recently became his first to be nominated for a best gospel performance/song Grammy. “I grew up singing and playing in the church,” he says in his own statement to Billboard. “So, I have a profound respect for the tradition of gospel music and gospel radio. To have ‘Church’ reach No. 1 on the Gospel Airplay chart and to get my first ever Grammy nomination in the Gospel category is a blessing.”

Tasha now joins James Fortune and FIYA as the second-most gospel airplay leaders, following closely behind Kirk Franklin and Tamela Mann, who both have 12 number ones. She also has the second-most leaders among women in the chart’s history.

Her album Tasha, which debuted at #1 on Top Gospel Albums in August, is nominated for best gospel album at the 2026 Grammys.

Watch Megan Moroney swim with sharks — and pigs?

November 25, 2025 by WDNY Radio

Megan Moroney recently told People that she was going on vacation with pop star Tate McRae. Now on her Instagram Story, she’s sharing some videos of what appears to be that trip.

In a video we see Megan sitting on a pier in a bikini, then standing on the pier with several women, one of whom looks a lot like Tate. They also sunbathe and fish on a boat, and go swimming with a school of nurse sharks. In addition, you can see some adorable pigs swimming in the ocean.

The sharks and the pigs would seem to indicate that Megan is vacationing in Compass Cay in the Bahamas.

Megan certainly deserves some R&R after her busy year of touring, winning awards and scoring hits. Her next era will start in February 2026 with the release of her new album, Cloud 9.

50 Cent’s Diddy documentary to premiere in December

November 25, 2025 by WDNY Radio

50 Cent‘s documentary about Sean “Diddy” Combs now has an official release date. Sean Combs: The Reckoning will make its way to Netflix on Dec. 2. The doc was directed by Alexandria Stapleton, with 50 serving as an executive producer.

Sean Combs: The Reckoning will examine the life and career of Diddy, including his rise within the music industry, his influential impact on the careers of artists like The Notorious B.I.G., and the underworld that eventually resulted in lawsuits and his felony conviction. It will be broken down into four episodes featuring “exclusive interviews with those formerly in Combs’ orbit” and other “explosive, never-before-seen materials.”

“This isn’t just about the story of Sean Combs or the story of Cassie, or the story of any of the victims, or the allegations against him, or the trial,” Stapleton says in a statement. “Ultimately, this story is a mirror [reflecting us] as the public, and what we are saying when we put our celebrities on such a high pedestal.”

Her hope for the documentary is that it serves as “a wake-up call for how we idolize people, and to understand that everybody is a human being.”

Diddy is currently serving a 50-month sentence for two prostitution-related convictions at the Federal Correctional Institution in Fort Dix, New Jersey.
