Rivers Cuomo has suggested that he thinks Weezer have released “too much” music.The band have released 15 studio albums across their three decade-long career, as well as several EPs, including their four-part ‘SZNZ’ series last year.Now, in conversation with Red Hot Chili Peppers bassist Flea on his podcast, This Little Light, Cuomo implied that Weezer’s back catalogue might have become too large.“I think, if I were to go back and plan out an ideal artist’s career, I don’t know — maybe there’s too much quantity,” Cuomo said when Flea asked how he felt about Weezer’s extensive discography.“Maybe the whole thing would be more impactful if we could go back in time and just release the very best stuff. Cherry-pick and release it in a very strategic way.
But hindsight is 20/20, and hopefully future generations will sort it all out and they’ll focus on the best stuff.”Cuomo didn’t name or reference any Weezer albums he thinks in hindsight shouldn’t have been released. However, he did say he would be interested in paying closer attention to what the fans want to hear from the band going forward.“I really want to listen and see where their [fans’] heads are at, and what they’re reacting to, and sometimes it’s not exactly where I would have gone on my own,” he continued.

HBO series Succession.Jeremy Strong has revealed that he attempted to jump into the river during his final scene in Succession, but was stopped by another cast member.The popular drama series came to its bitter conclusion last week (May 28), with the last episode of the fourth and final season drawing to a close with the Roy children finally losing control of their family’s media empire, and Tom Wambsgans named new CEO following the company’s acquisition by GoJo.In the last moments of the episode, the final scene shows Jeremy Strong’s character, Kendall Roy, alone in New York’s Battery Park contemplating the events that have just unfolded — and seemingly stripped of his life’s purpose.According to a new interview with Vanity Fair, however, the actor admitted that he tried to choose an alternate ending for his character, and attempted to jump into the Hudson River when filming.“To me, what happens at the board vote is an extinction level event for this character. There’s no coming back from that,” he explained, adding that he was stopped from climbing the railing by Scott Nicholson, who played Colin.“I tried to go into the water after we cut — I got up from that bench and went as fast as I could over the barrier and onto the pilings, and the actor playing Colin raced over,” he said.

Beyoncé paid tribute to her late idol Tina Turner, with a cover of Ike & Tina Turner’s ‘River Deep, Mountain High’.Taking to the stage at the Tottenham Hotspurs stadium last night (May 29), the pop icon performed the latest show as part of her long-awaited ‘Renaissance’ tour.It was here that she paid homage to the late music icon Tina Turner, which came just under a week after news broke that Turner — who was one of Beyoncé’s biggest sources of inspiration — had died peacefully in her home last Wednesday (May 24), aged 83.“I want you to allow me to sing one of my favourite songs,” the singer said ahead of the rendition, which took place during the first part of her set. From there, Beyoncé paid tribute to the late performer by putting her own spin on ‘River Deep, Mountain High’, which Turner released with Ike in 1966.For the occasion, Beyoncé didn’t seek to match the high energy that Turner created in the original track, but instead performed a stripped-back, near-gospel version, before looking to the sky and saying: “We love you, Tina’.Check out footage of the moment below.Other highlights of the show include the second onstage appearance from Beyoncé’s daughter, Blue Ivy.

idolizing.The upcoming HBO show “The Idol” — starring Lily-Rose Depp and Abel Tesfaye, aka “The Weeknd,” who is also a co-creator — is not getting glowing reviews from its debut at Cannes, where it screened its first two episodes on Monday.“The Idol,” or 50 SHADES OF TESFAYE: A Pornhub-homepage odyssey starring Lily-Rose Depp’s areolas and The Weeknd’s greasy rat tail,” one critic derided after viewing it.“Love that this will help launch the HBO Max rebrand, should slot nicely next to House Hunters!”Co-created by Sam Levinson of “Euphoria” fame, “The Idol” is about an up-and-coming pop star Jocelyn — played by Depp, who is the 23-year-old daughter of Johnny Depp — as she gets entangled with a sinister self-help guru, Tedros played by Tesfaye. The production has already been besieged by scandal, including an April report from Rolling Stone in which sources on the production described a chaotic environment behind the scenes and called it “torture porn” and “rape fantasy.”At the time, Tesfaye, 33, replied by posting a taunting message: “Did we upset you?”Another viewer who caught it at the film festival commented, “Ep 2 is straight-up pornographic there’s an entire 10-minute scene of The Weeknd talking dirty to Lily while she fingers herself for him, then he tells her to suck his c–k and she gives him head. The worst part is that Sam Levinson originally wanted that scene to be longer, too.”She also added that Depp’s character is nude or having sex in every episode.

“I think that chemistry between my mother and I is also why the red carpet worked and also why ‘Fashion Police’ worked,” Rivers said, referring to the E! series that had the duo (along with George Kotsiopoulos, Giuliana Rancic and Kelly Osbourne) commenting on celebrity fashion. “I think that that was a broader connection than just the reality show.”But did exposing their relationship on camera have the same effect on Rivers as it did on their fans? “Did it affect me? You know, when you’re in something you’re not so reflective,” Rivers said. “I think what people always respond to is that everyone always says, ‘That’s my relationship with my mother.’ That, ‘I saw myself even on the red carpets in your relationship.”“Obviously I missed and I still miss my mom for being my mother,” she continued.
