The Go-Go’s guitarist and co-founder Jane Wiedlin is set to release her first memoir, TMI: Memoirs of a Go-Go, on Nov. 10.
According to a press release, the book is “a vivid account of rock excess and Hollywood drama,” with Wiedlin opening up about “childhood tragedy, mental health struggles, shattered relationships, and her own relentless reinvention.”
“My story is about my band the Go-Go’s, of course, but there is so much more to tell than that,” Wiedlin says in a statement. “My lifelong battle with mental illness, multiple failed relationships, living in literally dozens of places (including foreign countries), and discovering my passion for animal rescue and BDSM are just some of the other parts of me that I have divulged in this tell-almost-all memoir.”
She adds, “It’s called TMI for a reason!”
In the book, Wiedlin, who co-founded the Go-Go’s with Belinda Carlisle in 1978, will delve into the highs and lows of her career with the band, as well as opening up about her personal struggles.
The Go-Go’s, which also includes Gina Schock, Kathy Valentine and Charlotte Caffey, released their debut album, Beauty and the Beat, in 1981. It went double-Platinum and hit #1 thanks to hit singles “We Got the Beat” and “Our Lips Are Sealed.” They went on to become one of the most successful bands of the ’80s, and in 2021 were inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame.
Midland’s “Drinkin’ Dark Whiskey” (Blue Highway Records)
You can find out what it sounds like when Midland covers Chris Stapleton on their latest track, one the ACM male artist of the year co-wrote with his SteelDrivers bandmate Mike Henderson.
“‘Drinkin’ Dark Whiskey’ is a seminal honky tonk up tempo classic that Stapleton wrote and fine artists like Gary Allan and The SteelDrivers have cut and performed,” lead singer Mark Wystrach says. “We liked the song as it provided us with an opportunity to do a bluegrass arrangement on the chorus that really soars!”
“It’s catchy as hell, up tempo and a lot of fun to play and sing,” he adds.
“Drinkin’ Dark Whiskey” follows “Marlboro Man,” which came out in January.
Look for Midland to sing both when they play the American Championship Rodeo Weekend May 22 at Globe Life Field in Arlington, Texas, ahead of their European tour in June.
Beach Boys fans are getting another taste of the upcoming release The Pet Sounds Sessions Highlights, celebrating the 60th anniversary of the band’s iconic album.
The latest preview is a three-track EP focused on the top-10 hit “Wouldn’t It Be Nice.” It features a trio of mixes, including a vocals-only version of the song. The EP is now available via digital outlets.
This is the second Pet Sounds-related EP that’s been released. A three-track EP focused on the song “Sloop John B” was released in March.
The Pet Sounds Sessions Highlights, dropping May 15, features material from the 1997 four-CD box set The Pet Sounds Sessions. It contains 25 alternate takes, a cappella versions and tracking sessions, all of which are making their vinyl debut.
It will be released as a two-CD set or two-LP set. The LP versions will be released on standard black vinyl and limited-edition splatter/color variants. Also on May 15, the original 90-track The Pet Sounds Sessions will be released to digital services.
Released May 16, 1966, Pet Sounds is often considered one of the best albums of all time. Recorded a year after Brian Wilson quit touring and suffered a breakdown in 1964, the album peaked at #10 on the Billboard Album chart; in 2004 it was chosen by the Library of Congress for inclusion in the National Recording Registry.

According to police, there may not have been any evil intent behind the disappearance of the vintage clothing that Madonna wore during her Coachella performance with Sabrina Carpenter. As previously reported, Madonna is offering a reward for the items, which are from her archives and are “part of my history,” as she wrote on her Instagram Story.
Police in Indio, California, tell ABC News that on April 18, Madonna’s representative filed a missing property report for two bags of clothing and jewelry, which were last seen on a golf cart on the Coachella grounds. The cart was being driven by staff who were on their way to load the bags onto a bus. Later, when staff arrived at a hotel, they realized the bags were gone.
According to police, the golf cart was being driven on a dark, bumpy road and a preliminary investigation suggests that the bags may have simply fallen off the back of the cart. According to the police report, “There is no evidence to suggest the bags were intentionally stolen.”
As of yet, there’s no record of the bags being turned in. However, police are asking anyone who may have located the bags to return them to 46800 Jackson St. in Indio, California, or contact the department at (760) 391-4057.
Madonna described the items as her “jacket, corset, dress” and “other archival items from the same era.” The Queen of Pop had last worn some of those items when she performed at Coachella in 2006.

Tom Cruise took to his social media on Tuesday to announce the rerelease.

For the first time ever, Top Gun will be screened in “cutting-edge immersive formats, delivering a fully upgraded, high-octane experience for a new generation of moviegoers and longtime fans alike,” according to a press release.
Tickets for the rerelease go on sale on Tuesday.

(WASHINGTON) — Florida Democrat Rep. Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick resigned from Congress on Tuesday afternoon, just before she was to face a House Ethics Committee sanction hearing.
The committee was set to hold a rare public hearing to determine what sanction would be appropriate for it to recommend to the full House against Cherfilus-McCormick.
Last month, Cherfilus-McCormick was found guilty of 25 House ethics violations, including acceptance of improper campaign contributions and commingling of campaign and personal funds. The congresswoman was indicted in November 2025 by a federal grand jury on charges of stealing $5 million in Federal Emergency Management Agency funds, which she is accused of laundering to support her successful 2021 congressional campaign.
Cherfilus-McCormick has denied wrongdoing, excusing the allegations as an accounting error.
In her resignation announcement, the congresswoman called the process a “witch hunt.”
“By going forward with this process while a criminal indictment is pending, the Committee prevented me from defending myself,” she said. “I simply cannot stand by and allow my due process rights to be trampled on, and my good name to be tarnished.”
Ethics Committee Chairman Michael Guest read out loud the congresswoman’s resignation letter after the committee briefly convened and said the committee had lost jurisdiction over Cherfilus-McCormick with her resignation.
“I will tell you that the committee has worked diligently to investigate this matter, that this was not a rush to judgment, as some would claim, that this was a very deliberate process to gather information into allegations that were extremely serious and extremely complicated,” Guest said.
Ranking Democrat Mark DeSaulnier told the committee, “Nobody’s happy. I don’t think any of us are happy at what we’ve gone through, but I am extremely proud of being associated with all of you.”
She is the third member of the House to resign in a week, following Republican Rep. Tony Gonzales of Texas and Democratic Rep. Eric Swalwell, who were accused of sexual misconduct and were about to face efforts by their colleagues to have them expelled.
Expelling a member of the House is a rare occurrence. A two-thirds majority is required to remove a member.
Only six House members in U.S. history have been expelled from the lower chamber. Former New York Republican Rep. George Santos was the most recent lawmaker expelled from the House in 2023.
The committee could have recommended a range of sanctions, including expulsion, censure, reprimand, fine — and even denial or limitation of any right, according to House rules. The House may punish its members and may expel its members by a two-thirds vote, according to Article 1, Section 5 of the Constitution.
The sanction recommendation against Cherfilus-McCormick was expected to be announced in writing after the hearing. Afterward, the panel was to break into executive session to conclude its deliberations and reach a judgment.
Before Cherfilus-McCormick announced her resignation, Florida Republican Rep. Greg Steube said he would move to force a vote to try to expel the congresswoman following the sanction hearing. Steube was expected to make the expulsion resolution privileged, which required Speaker Mike Johnson to hold a vote on the matter within two legislative days.
The speaker signaled last week that expelling Cherfilus-McCormick over her alleged crimes would be “appropriate.”
Though he initially insisted that Democrats would not help Republicans expel Cherfilus-McCormick, House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries said on Monday that Democrats would convene a caucus meeting to determine how they’ll handle the the bipartisan Ethics panel’s recommendations.
After her resignation, Steube called on the Department of Justice to put Cherfilus-McCormick in prison.
“This is a victory for our institution and the great state of Florida,” Steube wrote on X. “Thank you to everyone who stayed involved and kept the pressure on. Now it’s on the DOJ to put her in prison.”

Teyana Taylor is featured in People‘s World’s Most Beautiful Issue, and she uses the moment to pay tribute to one of her biggest musical inspirations: Janet Jackson.
For the shoot, she recreated Janet’s military-inspired cream outfit from the 1993-1995 Janet World Tour.
“Everybody who knows me, knows I don’t play about Janet,” Teyana says. “I’m still, like, her number one fan.”
“Everyone knows I’m obsessed with Janet. I’ve already recreated so many of her iconic looks,” she continues. “So I wanted to do something that’s a little different and unexpected.”
Teyana credits Janet for fueling her desire to be an artist, back when she discovered the DVD for Janet’s 1998-1999 Velvet Rope tour at 9 years old.
“When I saw it, oh my God. I knew what I wanted to do when I got older. I knew that I wanted to be an artist.”
Teyana has come a long way since then and now considers Janet a friend. She even credits Janet with helping her return to music.
“When I first retired from music (in December of 2020) she poured into me and gave me some really good advice,” Teyana says. “She played a big part in why I came back. It’s kind of crazy because now she’s like my homegirl in real life. … But even though we’ve grown a close bond, I’m still a fan. I don’t take it for granted.”
Janet has since responded to the tribute, telling People, “Wow, I just have to say wow, Tey. You did it — you captured it; you captured the energy, the mood. If only I had looked that beautiful.”
“I mean, the outfit — so gorgeous, honey, it’s absolutely stunning,” she adds. “I’m really honored, Tey. Thank you so much. I love it, absolutely love it.”

(WASHINGTON) — Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth announced on Tuesday that the annual flu vaccine will now be optional for all U.S. military personnel, both active and reserve.
Previously, the flu vaccine had been mandatory. The new policy is in line with a previous change, making the COVID-19 vaccine optional.
Hegseth announced the change in a video posted on social media.
“The notion that a flu vaccine must be mandatory for every service member, everywhere, in every circumstance, at all times, is just overly broad and not rational,” Hegseth said.
“Our new policy is simple: If you, an American warrior entrusted to defend this nation, believe that the flu vaccine is in your best interest, then you are free to take it; you should. But we will not force you,” Hegseth added.
Referring to the COVID-19 vaccine that led to the dismissal of 8,000 service members who refused to take it, Hegseth said, “Our men and women in uniform were forced to choose between their conscience and their country, even when those decisions posed no threat to our military readiness.”
“That era of betrayal is over,” said Hegseth.
