I Already Regret Selling My Roller Skates After Seeing Silk Sonic's Sexy "Skate" Video

ro Silk Sonic 's latest single, "Skate," proves that sometimes all you need is a little disco flair to get the party going. On Friday, the musical duo made up of Bruno Mars and Anderson .Paak dropped the accompanying video for the track, and I might just have a new favorite song of the summer. With lyrics like, "I can smell your sweet perfume / Mmm, you smell better than a barbecue," it's hard to believe that the song won't be heard at every barbecue from now until Labor Day. In the video, Mars and .Paak can be seen showing off for a group of gorgeous women with some serious skating skills . Watching them easily glide along to the music has me regretting that I sold my skates months ago. Would I actually be able to duplicate the moves seen in the "Skate" video? No, but I could at least sit on the curb as I enjoy the tune's throwback vibes . You can check out the full video above, but fair warning, you will need some room to roll, ride, ...

Watch the House of Gucci Trailer, Starring Lady Gaga, Adam Driver, and an Espresso Cup

The first House of Gucci trailer has arrived, offering a long-awaited glimpse into what's to come: luxury fashions, palatial locations, and a host of accents, though all of them "Italian." While many viewers are rightfully clinging to the moment Lady Gaga threateningly taps a teeny spoon on an espresso cup, I'm personally most excited for the Scarface -adjacent dance montage that appears to be in store for us. The crime drama marks Gaga's first film since A Star Is Born , which earned her a best actress Oscar nomination. Directed by Ridley Scott and inspired by a true story , House of Gucci follows the professional life and personal jaunts of Italian businessman Maurizio Gucci, whose murder in 1995 was arranged by his ex-wife, Patrizia Reggiani. Gaga and Adam Driver star in the film, with Al Pacino , Jeremy Irons, Salma Hayek , and an incredibly unrecognizable Jared Leto rounding out the cast. House of Gucci hits theaters November 24.

The Pogues Might Be Going to the Bahamas, but Outer Banks Season 2 Wasn't Filmed There

With the July 30 release of season two of Outer Banks on Netflix, we can't blame you for wanting to join the Pogues and the Kooks on their adventures. Although the series centers on a group of teens in North Carolina , filming for the first and second seasons primarily took place in Charleston, SC . This was due to North Carolina's anti-LGBTQ bathroom bill , which was passed in March 2016. While filming for the second season also took place in Charleston, because of the first season cliffhanger ending for John B and Sarah Cameron , the Outer Banks cast also got to spend some time in the Caribbean. Although John B and Sarah end up in the Bahamas at the end of season one, those scenes were actually shot in Barbados. Following COVID protocols, season two began filming in Charleston in September 2020 before wrapping in January 2021 and moving on to Barbados. Filming in Barbados wrapped in April 2021, with the cast and crew sharing photos from the shoot. "Goodbye Barbad...

Beth Shriever won gold in BMX racing at the Olympics. She crowdfunded to get there.

British BMX rider Bethany Shriever won a gold medal at the Tokyo Olympic Games after she was refused funding and resorted to crowdfunding to be able to go to Japan. The 22-year-old cyclist launched a crowdfunding campaign in 2019 with a goal of £50,000 ($69,719) to cover costs to reach the 2020 Olympics. This followed a decision by UK Sport, the government agency that invests in Olympic and Paralympic athletes, that it would only financially support male BMX riders for Tokyo, after no British women riders qualified for the Rio Olympics in 2016. Back in 2019, Shriever told the BBC it was "worrying" that she was being denied funding. "My rivals who are all around the world are doing this full time and are funded, so I'm the only one who's not really getting much help," she said. "It is worrying and I don't want my dream to compete at Tokyo to be taken away just because of money." Great Britain's Bethany Shriever and Kye Whyte at the C...

10 of the best time travel movies you can watch right now

Is there anything more mind-bending than the concept of time travel? It's a sci-fi staple that goes hand-in-hand with so many complex theories and possibilities that it's something of a double-edged sword in movies: the fictional possibilities are endless, but then so are those of plot holes. Despite this, there are plenty of films that have got it right — from the colossal timeline bending of the Marvel Cinematic Universe to Christopher Nolan's meticulous wormhole odyssey — and we've driven a Delorean time machine back through recent decades to track them down for you. Below are some of the best films about time travel — or that involve some element of time travel — that you can watch on your screens this very minute (or at some time in the future, if you prefer)... 1.
