William Earl Geoff Rickly is an artist who is constantly expressing himself. He rose to fame in his early 20s as the singer of post-hardcore band Thursday, and his energetic stage presence brought the quintet a wave of buzz as both intellectual rockers and an essential live act. Although Thursday broke up in 2011 after a string of critically-acclaimed records, Rickly has taken up vocal and songwriting duties in groups like No Devotion and United Nations — and even reunited Thursday a couple of times, including a recent run opening for My Chemical Romance’s arena tour and playing standalone shows and festival dates.

Selome Hailu Nostalgia and comfort watches always have their place on Nielsen’s weekly streaming rankings, with shows like “NCIS” and “Gilmore Girls” regularly holding their own in competition with new hit series. During the June 19-25 viewing window, a new-old favorite took the No. 1 position: “Suits,” the USA Network legal drama that concluded in 2019 and recently landed on Netflix. “Suits” was watched for 2.3 billion minutes during this viewing period, which marked the first full week that the series has been available on Netflix — though it should be noted that “Suits” was already available on Peacock, and this statistic indicates viewership across both streamers. This is the first time in nearly four months that a title has crossed the 2 billion minute mark on the Nielsen Streaming Top 10, with the most recent winner of that achievement being “The Night Agent” with 3.1 billion minutes watched from March 27 to April 2. And that happens even less with titles acquired from other networks, rather than streaming originals — “Manifest” was the last with 2.5 billion minutes watched from June 21-27 of 2021.

J. Kim Murphy Paramount’s “Mission: Impossible — Dead Reckoning Part One” is defusing a bit at the domestic box office, readjusting for an estimated $78 million gross over its five-day opening. That’d be a substantial chunk behind projections headed into the weekend, which had the Tom Cruise action sequel hoping for a $90 million. Some in the industry were expecting a “Top Gun: Maverick” halo effect for “Dead Reckoning” after last year’s legacy sequel positively ignited movie theaters, rocketing through the summer to become the fifth-highest grossing domestic release of all-time. That doesn’t seem to be the case though, as “Mission” seems to be landing around the solid numbers typical for its franchise.

Robert De Niro’s youngest child is ready for her close-up!

BTS Army members had already been sleeping outside for days, turning an elite stretch of Fifth Avenue into a campground — no thunderstorm was about to dampen their “Euphoria” for Jung Kook’s solo debut in New York’s Central Park Friday morning.And to the squealing delight of his young female fans, the K-pop star was able to tape his three-song set — including a brand-new bop, “Seven” — before looming lightning forced an evacuation that nixed his scheduled live performance as part of the “Good Morning America” Summer Concert Series.At 25, Jung Kook is the youngest member of BTS — and the latest to go solo while the boy band is on hiatus. And despite ominous skies that had dawn looking more like dusk at Rumsey Playfield, the masses behind the mania were still weathering the “hostage situation” — as warm-up comedian Tom Kelly put it — with sunny smiles on their faces.With his shy, modest manner, Jung Kook — despite being one of the main singers in BTS — almost seemed embarrassed by the attention when he entered from the side-stage bleachers to sing “Euphoria.” Although the song is from the 2018 BTS compilation “Love Yourself: Answer,” the singer recorded it as a solo — and seemed to hardly miss his six bandmates.And when the heartthrob crooned to the crowd, “You are the source of my euphoria,” it was clearly more like the other way around.Then Jung Kook launched into his new single “Seven” — which features rapper Latto  — riding the guitar-inflected garage groove with his smooth moves and easy charm.As the rain began to fall, Jung Kook closed the abbreviated festivities with “Dynamite,” BTS’ first No. 1 hit in the US.
