Duran Duran will once again take the stage for a special Halloween show, this time in London.
The band just announced that their Danse Macabre Halloween Party will be happening Oct. 31 at The O2, London, promising fans a show “packed with twisted hits, unexpected deep cuts and rarely played treasures resurrected from the Duran Duran crypt.” Duran Duran is encouraging fans to dress up for the show and get in the spirit of the holiday.
A VIP presale for tickets kicks off Wednesday, with tickets going on sale to the general public Friday at 10 a.m. BST.
This will be the band’s first Halloween show in London. They first headlined a Halloween show in Las Vegas in 2022, which went on to inspire their 2023 spooky-themed album, Danse Macabre. They then went on to headline Halloween shows at New York’s Madison Square Garden and Manchester’s Co-op Live in 2024 and 2025, respectively.
The Halloween show will be the final night of an already announced Duran Duran U.K. tour, which launches Oct. 15 in Glasgow, Scotland. A complete list of dates can be found at DuranDuran.com.
Duran Duran headlined BST Hyde Park in London on Saturday where, according to setlist.fm, they were joined by Nile Rodgers for “Notorious” and their latest single, “Free to Love.” The rest of the set featured iconic Duran Duran tunes, including “A View to a Kill,” “Hungry Like The Wolf,” “The Reflex,” “Ordinary World,” “The Wild Boys,” and “Rio,” among others.

(CHINO, Calif.) –A man has been arrested for involuntary manslaughter after a woman died and three people were injured from a fireworks explosion in Southern California over the weekend, authorities said.
Investigators believe a large quantity of fireworks ignited, prompting an explosion during 4th of July celebrations Saturday night in Chino, about 35 miles east of Los Angeles, Chino police said. The blast also engulfed a car in flames, police said.
Derion Tradon James Jr., 28, was detained at the scene and later booked on an involuntary manslaughter charge, police said.
“There was a humongous explosion. The explosion was so loud, it’s what I would assume a gas line in a house blew up,” witness Gabriel Gilmore told ABC Los Angeles station KABC. “… The plume of smoke that rose from the floor was equivalent to the size of the house.”
One victim, a woman in her 20s, was taken to a hospital where she died from her injuries, police said on Sunday.
Two other adults suffered serious injuries but are expected to survive, according to police, who said a child was also injured and has since been released from the hospital.
A spokesperson for the Chino police department told ABC News that the investigation into the incident is “active and ongoing,” and that “detectives are continuing to work closely with the Ontario [California] Fire Department’s bomb squad to determine exactly what occurred.”

(PROVO, Utah) — A crucial court hearing is expected to get underway on Monday to determine whether prosecutors have enough evidence to warrant a murder trial for the alleged assassin of conservative activist Charlie Kirk.
Utah prosecutors have said they have a mountain of evidence against the suspect, 23-year-old Tyler James Robinson, and plan to seek the death penalty.
The state is expected to begin presenting its evidence on Monday at a preliminary hearing in the 4th District Court in Provo, Utah. The hearing is expected to last up to five days.
Kirk’s widow, Erika Kirk, and his parents, Robert and Kathryn Kirk, are expected to attend the suspect’s preliminary hearing, according to The Associated Press.
The Kirk family released a statement Monday morning, saying, “Charlie was a beloved husband, son, brother, friend, and father.”
“Every court proceeding serves as a painful reminder of his death and the loss that has irrevocably impacted our lives and the lives of his children,” the family said. “We remain deeply grateful for the support, prayers, and kindness we have received. This outpouring has sustained us during the darkest days of our lives.”
The family said it will not be commenting further on the case: “We ask for continued privacy as we navigate this process and immense grief.”
District Judge Tony Graf will weigh the evidence presented by prosecutors and decide if there is enough to hold Robinson over for trial and whether prosecutors can proceed in seeking the death penalty.
Prosecutors need only to demonstrate that there are reasonable grounds to warrant a trial for Robinson. If Graf orders Robinson to proceed to trial, prosecutors must then prove beyond a reasonable doubt at a trial that the defendant is guilty of killing the 31-year-old Kirk.
Robinson has been charged with aggravated murder, felony discharge of a firearm causing serious bodily injury, obstruction of justice, two counts of witness tampering and commission of a violent offense in the presence of a child.
Robinson has yet to enter a plea to the charges, and his attorneys have not issued any statements on his guilt or innocence.
The fatal shooting of Kirk, who was the founder of the conservative youth movement Turning Point USA and a strong ally of President Donald Trump, occurred in September 2025 at an outdoor rally at Utah Valley University in Orem, Utah.
On Sept. 10, 2025, Kirk was holding the first stop of his “The American Comeback Tour,” which invited students on college campuses to debate hot-button issues. He was at an amphitheater on the campus of Utah Valley University taking a question about gun violence in America when a single shot rang out from a distance away, hitting him in the left side of his neck.
Kirk’s security team immediately carried him to a vehicle and rushed him to a hospital, where he was pronounced dead.
Police investigators have said the shot that killed Kirk was fired from the rooftop of a building about 200 feet from where Kirk was speaking.
Robinson allegedly fled the scene on foot, prompting a massive manhunt. He surrendered to authorities on the night of Sept. 11, 2025, after his father contacted law enforcement officials and told them he recognized his son in photographs of the suspect released by authorities, officials said.
According to court documents, Robinson allegedly confessed in a note left for his roommate, who was also his romantic partner, that read, “I had the opportunity to take out Charlie Kirk and I’m going to take it.”
On the day of the shooting, Robinson allegedly sent his boyfriend a text message that said, “Drop what you are doing, look under my keyboard,” Utah County Attorney Jeff Gray said at a news conference following Robinson’s arrest.
Robinson’s boyfriend told police that he found a handwritten letter under the keyboard, according to Gray, who said the note read in part, “If you are reading this per my text, then I am so sorry. I left the house this morning on a mission, and set an auto text.”
Gray said Robinson allegedly sent another message to his boyfriend, in which he allegedly said of Kirk, “I had enough of his hatred. Some hate can’t be negotiated out.”

(LONDON) — A large Russian drone and missile strike on Kyiv killed at least 18 people and injured dozens in the Ukrainian capital and surrounding region overnight, local officials said, with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy again appealing to foreign partners to ramp up the delivery of key anti-missile ammunition.
The Ukrainian air force said in posts to Telegram that Russia launched 68 missiles — among them 23 ballistic missiles — and 351 drones into the country overnight.
The air force said that 37 missiles and 326 drones were shot down or otherwise suppressed, with impacts of 29 missiles and 18 drones reported across 34 locations.
The capital bore the brunt of Russia’s latest overnight strike, officials said. Kyiv Mayor Vitali Klitschko said in posts to Telegram that at least 12 people were killed and 46 people were injured, of which at least 26 were hospitalized.
A further six people were killed and 26 people injured across the wider Kyiv region, according to regional governor Mykola Kalashnyk.
Klitschko reported damage in the Obolonskyi, Holosiivskyi, Podilskyi and Darnytskyi districts of the capital. In Podilskyi and Darnytskyi, the mayor said that rescue teams were searching for additional victims under the rubble of destroyed residential buildings.
Zelenskyy said in posts to social media that Ukrainian forces defending against the “massive Russian attack” intercepted many drones and cruise missiles, but not the more advanced ballistic weapons.
“The reason for this is precisely the insufficient supply of interceptor missiles. It is very important that the world, especially America and our European partners, come out of the NATO summit in Ankara with strong decisions to support our defense of the sky, and hence, the protection of ordinary people’s lives,” Zelenskyy wrote.
“As long as the missiles for the Patriots remain in the warehouses of allies, this only encourages Russia to continue destroying residential buildings,” the Ukrainian president added, referring to the American-made Patriot surface-to-air missile system which Kyiv often uses to intercept Russian missiles.
“The U.S. and Europe have enough power to stop this terror,” he added.
Russia’s Defense Ministry, meanwhile, described the overnight attack in a post to Telegram as “a massive strike with high-precision long-range weapons of land, air and sea-based systems, as well as with strike drones.”
The ministry claimed to have targeted military-industrial and energy facilities in Kyiv, plus military airfield infrastructure.
The Defense Ministry also reported that its forces intercepted at least 625 Ukrainian drones overnight and into Monday.
Moscow was among the targets of the latest wave of Ukrainian long-range attacks, the city’s Mayor Sergey Sobyanin said in posts to Telegram. The mayor said that at least 15 Ukrainian drones were shot down en route to the capital since midnight on Sunday.

(WASHINGTON) — President Donald Trump will head to the NATO summit in Ankara, Turkey, this week as an unstable ceasefire between the U.S. and Iran and Trump’s feud with his NATO allies continue.
The summit will be held Tuesday and Wednesday at the Beştepe Presidential Compound and chaired by NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte. The formal opening is scheduled for Tuesday and the event is expected to conclude the following day, when Trump will hold a news conference.
Trump’s trip will be brief. He is expected to leave the White House Monday night and return to the U.S. on Wednesday evening. While in Turkey, the president is expected to take part in a bilateral meetings with Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and participate in a number of working sessions.
‘Taking stock’ of NATO
Matt Whitaker, the U.S. ambassador to NATO, said Sunday that the summit will measure the progress of NATO allies’ commitment to spend 5% of their GDP on defense and said that the U.S. would also “take stock of our allies’ expanding NATO’s capabilities in support of the burden-shifting going on here on the European continent.”
“Some allies are doing more than others. Poland, the Nordic countries, the Baltic countries lead the way, and Germany is on track for the 5%, reaching it in 2029. But many others are lagging behind,” Whitaker said.
The summit also comes after Trump has repeatedly floated the idea of leaving NATO. As recently as April, Trump expressed frustration with European allies amid the U.S.’s war with Iran, as many members have been reluctant to join military operations in re-opening and patrolling the Strait of Hormuz.
“Oh yes, I would say [it’s] beyond reconsideration. I was never swayed by NATO,” Trump said in April when asked if he would reconsider the U.S.’s membership after the conflict ends. “I always knew they were a paper tiger, and Putin knows that too, by the way.”
More broadly, Trump has been extremely critical of NATO allies over their ability to share the burden of contributing to the post-World War II alliance.
Whitaker said, “The United States remains a proud NATO member,” but “we have responsibilities elsewhere in the world as the world’s only superpower.”
Trump continued his criticism of some NATO allies as recently as last week.
“Ridiculous for the U.S.A. to continue along this one sided path when the relationship is not reciprocal. They were not there for us,” Trump wrote last Thursday on his social media platform.
“The United States spends more money on NATO than any other country, by far, to protect them, without getting any benefit from so doing,” the president also claimed on Thursday in a post on social media.
While Trump claims that allies spend “on NATO,” that’s not how the alliance works. Member states must spend 2% of their GDP on their own national defense budgets. The U.S. is NATO’s largest defense spender by virtue of having the world’s largest defense budget. But taken as a percentage of GDP, the US has hovered around 3% range — less than Poland and Baltic allies.
NATO’s involvement in Iran war
Trump’s requests for allies’ support in the U.S. war against Iran goes beyond NATO’s collective defense agreement, which calls for all to respond to an attack on a member country. Yet Trump has framed it as a test of whether allies reciprocate in return for American security commitments.
A senior U.S. official said Sunday the U.S. believes ensuring freedom of navigation through the Strait of Hormuz would be on the agenda, but that many NATO allies don’t have the capabilities to support those operations.
“I certainly believe that the Strait of Hormuz and the protection of the maritime traffic going through there is going to be a subject that comes up,” the official said.
But, they continued, “Many [NATO allies] don’t have the necessary ships or assets to contribute to a meaningful maritime effort” despite the fact that “we’ve had a lot of allies raise their hand and offer to participate.”
Shifting the burden to NATO allies
Two senior U.S. officials said on Sunday that the U.S. plans to further shift the burden of European defense onto European countries, saying that a force posture review currently underway of the military’s presence in Europe “very well may lead” to changes.
Asked about the potential for a U.S. force reduction in Europe, one senior U.S. official confirmed that Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth attended a meeting of NATO defense ministers weeks ago to announce a “six-month or less” review of the U.S. force posture in Europe.
“The main reason being, we continue to have global demands as the United States of America, and we should always be looking at how we’re deployed to our threats,” the official said, adding that any shift in troop placement would be “based on nonpolitical reasons.”
“There should be no surprise that we’re doing a posture review or surprise if that posture review very well may lead to us adjusting our posture because we’re trying to shift burden to Europe,” another official added.
NATO 3.0
The summit comes fresh off of Rutte’s visit to the White House on June 24, when he said NATO is entering a new phase centered on greater European responsibility while keeping the U.S. engaged in the alliance. Rutte framed the summit as the moment when member countries begin implementing the spending and capability commitments made at last year’s Hague summit.
Rutte said the summit will be the beginning of a transatlantic “defense industrial revolution,” promising announcements of “tens of billions” of dollars in defense-related contracts. He ventured that this year’s summit is “more important” than last year’s in the Hague because of implementation of concrete investments aimed directly at Russia.
“Vladimir, we will defend ourselves,” Rutte addressed Russian President Vladimir Putin in a speech to the Atlantic Council last week.
A ‘big gift bag’ for Turkey
Trump said last Wednesday he would not have attended the summit were it not for his relationship with Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan and suggested he plans to bring a significant offer, or a “big gift bag” for his host — potentially including the sale of dozens of F-35 fighter jets to the country.
“I am going to the summit out of respect for President Erdogan … Except for the fact that it was being held in Turkey by President Erdogan, I don’t think I would have gone to it,” Trump said before a meeting with Rutte in the Oval Office in June.
Turkey is seeking to join the U.S. F-35 program, but it is prohibited from doing so as long as it possesses Russian-made air defenses.
“I’m probably going to do something that’s going to make him very happy,” Trump said.
Ending the war in Ukraine
As has been the case since the war with Russia began in 2022, the issue of Ukraine is also likely to play a key role in the NATO gathering.
White House spokesperson Anna Kelly said Sunday that Trump will meet separately with Zelenskyy on Wednesday afternoon in addition to other meetings with NATO leaders.
A senior U.S. official said Sunday that Trump planned to speak with Zelenskyy about “how we can end the war.”
“So, there are some small areas where Ukraine has made progress. There’s some small areas where Russia has made progress. But, the line of contact has been frozen over the last couple of months,” the official said.
The official said that Trump was hopeful a meeting with Zelenskyy could bring the war closer to an end.
“We’re hopeful that we can make progress towards doing that when, when the president gets together with President Zelenskyy and I’m sure he’ll follow up with President Putin as well,” the official said.
The conversation with Zelenskyy would come after Trump spoke with Putin on Saturday for nearly an hour and a half, according to a Kremlin readout, which noted that the two touched on Ukraine and that Trump “reiterated his readiness” to find a solution to the conflict.
The White House did not respond to a request for comment on the call.

ACM new male artist of the year Tucker Wetmore got a “Sunburn” last winter that’s fueling his vision for his sophomore album.
His latest track, titled “Sunburn,” is so far the only new music he’s released since his debut album. For Tucker, the new track had timing on its side.
“I’m a sucker for feel-good songs, and a couple of my buddies actually wrote it while I was out in the islands and they sent it to me,” he recalls. “And I’m like, ‘This feels like the summertime,’ you know? I was in the islands in December so I was feeling all the summertime feelings.”
If you’re wondering what to expect from the follow-up to What Not To, which boasts his number ones “Brunette,” “3,2,1” and “Wind Up Missing’ You,” Tucker says “Sunburn” is a pretty good indication of what’s to come.
“I love the song and it’s very much in the direction of where my music is going in this next project that I’m working on, you know, sonically and lyrically and everything,” he explains. “It just, it fit super well and we got it done, right in time for summer.”
Tucker’s playing lots of fairs and festivals this summer. The next date on the Brunette Tour is coming up July 18 in Indianapolis, with more to follow closer to fall.

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce managed to transform Madison Square Garden — a 19,500 person arena — into an “intimate” and “personal” wedding venue filled with people they love, according to the Good Morning America co-anchors, who all attended Friday’s wedding.
“It really was intimate,” Robin Roberts said Saturday on a special July Fourth edition of GMA, later adding, “They had their neighbors, their high school friends. It was like any wedding that you would attend.”
Roberts said that Swift and Kelce wrote their own vows, with George Stephanopoulos adding that the couple’s vows were written in “little books.”
“It was their dream wedding and it really was amazing,” Michael Strahan said about the ceremony, which was reported to have been attended by around 1,000 guests.
Swift and Kelce have not commented on details about their wedding. A representative for Swift confirmed in a statement to ABC News Friday that the couple wed in a ceremony in New York City officiated by actor and comedian Adam Sandler.
Swift’s brother, Austin, served as her “man of honor,” while Kelce’s brother, Jason, served as his best man. They were the only members of the wedding party, according to the rep.
Swift and Kelce’s wedding celebration Friday was scheduled to take place from 4 p.m. to 4 a.m., sources previously told ABC News.
Stephanopoulos said that the couple turned MSG, home to the New York Knicks and Rangers, into a garden of its own.
“[It was] as intimate as it could possibly be given that it was Madison Square Garden. Really this garden inside the Garden. Just so beautiful,” he said. “It’s hard to imagine that a place that big and a wedding with such stars could feel so personal and so intimate.”
Roberts added of the transformation of MSG, “You couldn’t recognize it.”
In addition to Roberts, Stephanopoulos and Strahan, other guests at the wedding were said to have included Gigi Hadid and Bradley Cooper, Benson Boone, Ethan Hawke, Abby Wambach, Jason Sudeikis and NFL stars including Matthew Stafford, Baker Mayfield, Cooper Kupp and Kelce’s Kansas City Chiefs teammates.
Roberts also revealed that music legend Stevie Nicks performed.
