According to the National Hurricane Center, Ida intensified rapidly on Friday from a tropical storm to a hurricane with winds reaching up to 80 mph as it hit western Cuba.

Created by Darcy Fowler, Seth Kirschner and Kieran Valla, the show follows 13-year-old Chrissy (Lucy DeVito) who discovers she is the daughter of Satan (Danny DeVito), i.e. she is the Antichrist. Her villain father is keen for her to inherit his realm, but not if her demon-fighting mother Laura (Aubrey Plaza) has anything to say about it. The acting duo found it entertaining to portray “extreme versions” of themselves on screen, and Danny DeVito especially enjoyed how much of a family affair the animated series is with his son Jake producing and wife Rhea Perlman also taking on a guest role....

One new viewer, writing on the Keyhouse Reddit, thinks that the opening of the Black Door in the Season 1 finale gives us our first clue as to where the keys come from in the Netflix version.

Ahead of their scheduled boxing match next month, Paul and KSI—whose real name is Olajide William “JJ” Olatunji—appeared together at a press conference in East London on Monday night local time to trash talk and lob insults at each other before the event.

In the latest episode of Lovecraft Country, we see Baker on stage in a nightclub in Paris, but dancing was just one of the many things the Missouri-born woman did in her 68 years on this earth. She was also the first Black woman to star in a major motion picture, a medal-winning French Resistance agent and a civil rights activist. The most enduring image of Josephine Baker in the popular culture is the costume she used to wear while dancing in Paris’ Folies Bergère in 1927 (the same year she made her movie debut): a skirt of artificial bananas and a beaded brasserie....

WARNING: The following contains spoilers for Lovecraft Country Episode 10, “Full Circle” By the end of the season finale, Atticus (played by Jonathan Majors), Ruby (Wunmi Mosaku) and Christina (Abbey Lee) all seemed to be dead—though in a show like this with so much magic and time travel going on, this does not mean that the characters are dead or gone forever. At the start of “Full Circle,” Tic and co have the Book of Names from Tulsa, and Atticus himself seems destined to die as predicted earlier in the HBO show....

This year’s demo has the Indianapolis Colts and the New York Jets facing off in the newly built Jets Stadium. Right off the bat you’ll notice a change to the old gameplay mechanics.

When the company announced that “Madden NFL 18” would be transitioning to Frostbite, it was a foregone conclusion that “Madden” would be next in line to offer a story mode. That was made official Friday with the teasing of a story mode in the first “Madden NFL 18” trailer.

For its December title update, new alternate versions of every offensive and defensive playbook for each team have been updated. These playbooks closely mimic what the teams have actually used through the current NFL season.

The Magicka series has never been subtle about its absurd sense of humor. From the “crash to desktop” spell to the inclusion of a character named ‘Vlad’ who is most definitely not a vampire, the game wears its ridiculousness on its sleeve. With a sequel on its way in the form of Magicka 2, it was only logical that the folks at Paradox Interactive would have some new trailers to bestow on the magick-less masses....

Gauff joked about the same, further expressing her excitement at reaching the second week of the Australian Open....

Joao Santos claims an offer has been made to Napoli and admits it would be hard to turn down City’s advances....

Kanchelskis made a name for himself as a flying winger at Old Trafford, winning two Premier League titles at United under Ferguson’s management and playing with the likes of Eric Cantona, Ryan Giggs and Bryan Robson. United have not won the league title since Ferguson’s departure, and finished second in 2017-18, with a yawning gap of 19 points to eventual champions Manchester City. And Kanchelskis believes that Ferguson’s influence continues to cast a long shadow over the club, while bemoaning the quality of players in his old position....

The comment was made on TikTok by user @hongthayban, who was a staff member at the festival. A few days ago, the user called out the riBBon singer for nepotism and indirectly commented on his popularity in a now-deleted post. Taking to Twitter on January 3, the GOT7 rapper addressed the comment in a post by asking the reason behind people’s hatred for him.

“While I was making those tough decisions, where were you, Governor? Eating again at the International House of Waffles?” “Weird thing: an Elvis impersonator impersonating the commander in chief. Sometimes, Bill, you ain’t nothin’ but a hound dog.” “You still in this thing, Henry? It doesn’t take an army of private eyes to figure out who’s got the temperament for the Oval Office.” “I may not have served in the armed forces during Vietnam, but George Bush has been AWOL from the problems of this country for the last four years....
