Another member of the legendary rock group Kiss has tested positive for COVID-19 . Following a Friday announcement that Paul Stanley tested positive for the virus — and that the band was canceling the evening’s show as a result — Gene Simmons has also tested positive, and the group will be postponing multiple upcoming shows as a result. "Kiss will postpone their next four tour dates. While Paul Stanley recently tweeted that he has recovered from COVID, Gene Simmons has now tested positive and is experiencing mild symptoms," Kiss tweeted Tuesday. "The band and crew will remain at home and isolate for the next 10 days and doctors have indicated the tour should be able to resume on September 9th at FivePoint Amphitheatre in Irvine, CA." The Post has reached out to reps for Simmons for comment.

The slow-walk exit of Britney Spears ’ father from the conservatorship that has ruled the performer’s life for the past 13 years needs to pick up the pace, the one-time Princess of Pop’s lawyer says, and without a price tag. “Regardless of the past, Mr. Spears and his counsel are now on notice: the status quo is no longer tolerable, and Britney Spears will not be extorted,” says Matthew Rosengart in a fiery response filing Tuesday in Los Angeles Superior Court. More from Deadline “Mr. Spears’s blatant attempt to barter suspension and removal in exchange for approximately $2 million in payments, on top of the millions already reaped from Ms. Spears’s estate by Mr. Spears and his associates, is a non-starter,” added the former federal prosecutor, who earlier this summer was brought on by Spears as her first chosen attorney in the much criticized conservatorship. “The only honorable, decent, and humane course of action is for Mr. Spears to resign now, provide all necessary info

Amelia Hamlin is looking to keep the peace as tension brews between boyfriend Scott Disick and drummer Travis Barker, whose PDA with Disick’s ex, Kourtney Kardashian , is seemingly fueling drama between the two celebs. The 20-year-old model took to Instagram Tuesday, sharing photo of a man holding up a sign that reads, “Let’s be nicer to each other. We’re all trying our best.” The suggestion came after Kardashian’s ex, Younes Bendjima,  shared an alleged screenshot of DMs  from Disick, 38, throwing shade at the affectionate couple. “Yo is this chick ok!???? Broooo like what is this. In the middle of Italy,” Disick appeared to write to Bendjima, attaching a photo of their shared ex, Kardashian, 42, mounting the Blink-182 rocker, 45, on a boat. Bendjima responded by dismissing the Talentless co-founder’s jabs, saying he actually wishes the Poosh founder the best. Scott seemingly takes issue with the amount of PDA between his ex, Kourtney Kardashian and her current beau, Travis Bark

Mike Richards is out as executive producer of Jeopardy! and Wheel of Fortune . Sony Pictures Television just told staff. See the full note below. It comes after a turbulent few weeks for the long-running syndicated program, which saw Richards, who joined Jeopardy! as exec producer in 2020, ousted as host after one day of production. Suzanne Prete, EVP, Business and Strategy, Wheel of Fortune and Jeopardy! , just sent an internal note to staff on these shows explaining that Richards would depart effective immediately with Embassy Row’s Michael Davies agreeing to help on an interim basis. She said that they hoped that Richards exiting as host would have “minimized the disruption and internal difficulties” that they experienced over the last few weeks, but added that “clearly has not happened.” Deadline understands that given all that has transpired over the last few weeks, it was clear that Richards’ position as EP has been too compromised for him to effectively continue in tha

Scott Disick allegedly slid into the DMs of Kourtney Kardashian ’s ex-boyfriend, Younes Bendjima , in an attempt to join forces against the reality star who has been jet-setting around the world with Travis Barker -- but Bendjima didn’t exactly go for the buddy routine. Referencing the wildly public display of affection the "Keeping Up with the Kardashians" star, 42, and Blink-182 drummer, 45, have been exchanging during their recent vacation to Italy, Disick, 38, allegedly appeared to turn to Bendjima for support but the model, 28, didn’t take the bait and ended up putting Disick on blast afterward. "Yo is this chick ok!???? Broooo like what is this. In the middle of Italy," Disick allegedly wrote to Bendjima, who shared the alleged direct message to his Instagram Stories on Monday. The message was sent alongside a photo of Kardashian – who is the mother of Disick’s three children – straddling Barker on a boat. "Doesn’t matter to me as long as she’s happy

This story contains graphic court testimony. New York (CNN) A man identified only as "Louis" testified Monday at R. Kelly's trial, saying the singer lured him to his home and studio when he was 17 with promises of helping his music career but instead sexually abused him. Louis is the first male to publicly speak of alleged sexual abuse by Kelly. He was charged in a separate case and pleaded guilty in February to one count of attempting to bribe a witness. Kelly is not charged with having a role in the attempted bribery, and Louis testified Monday that Kelly was not aware of the plan. Louis took the stand to describe a more than 10-year relationship with Kelly that started at a McDonald's drive-thru when he was a high school aspiring rapper and ended sometime in the year after Kelly's 2019 arrest, when Louis decided to cooperate with federal prosecutors in their case against the singer. His testimony came in the third week of Kelly's Brooklyn fe

Apparently Scott Disick thinks Kourtney Kardashian and Travis Barker’s PDA is a bit much. In a plan that truly backfired, Disick appeared to direct message Kardashian’s other ex-boyfriend Younes Bendjima on Instagram looking for support in his horror over her paparazzi-snapped makeout sessions with Travis Barker. Unfortunately, not only did the model, 28, not give Disick, 38, what he was looking for, he also put him on blast by sharing screenshots of the exchange on his Instagram Story. “Yo is this chick ok!???? Broooo like what is this. In the middle of Italy,” Disick appeared to write to Bendjima, attaching a photo of Kardashian, 42, mounting the Blink-182 rocker, 45, on a boat.

Universal/MGM Candyman director Nia DaCosta has made history by becoming the first black woman to have a film open at number one on the North American box office chart. The director's reimagining of the 1992 horror made $22m (£16m) in its first weekend in US and Canadian cinemas. That is almost as much as the film - co-written and produced by Get Out's Jordan Peele - actually cost to make. Based on a Clive Barker story, the film is named after a hook-handed killer who has spawned a fearsome urban legend. The new film stars Yahya Abdul-Mateen II as a visual artist who comes to regret basing an exhibit on the Candyman myth. DaCosta only had one feature credit, 2018's Little Woods, when she was invited to direct the latest instalment in the horror franchise. Getty Images The 31-year-old is currently working on The Marvels, the sequel to the 2019 Marvel comic book blockbuster Captain Marvel. Candyman is the latest horror relea

Matthew Mindler 's, a former child actor, manner of death has been revealed.  The Lancaster County Coroner’s Office told TMZ Mindler's death has been ruled a suicide but his cause of death is still "pending toxicology results." Fox News previously confirmed Mindler was found dead on Saturday morning. He was just 19 years old. His body was located near Millersville University's campus in Lancaster County after he was reported missing late Wednesday from the Pennsylvania college. He was last seen on Tuesday. "It is with a grieving heart that I let you know of the death of 19-year-old Matthew Mindler from Hellertown, Pennsylvania, a first-year student at Millersville University. Our thoughts of comfort and peace are with his friends and family during this difficult time," Millersville University president Daniel A.

Former child star Matthew Mindler’s death has been ruled a suicide. The Lancaster County Coroner’s Office made the “manner of death” ruling Monday, though the exact cause of Mindler’s death is still pending the toxicology screen, TMZ reports. Mindler, 19, was found dead on Aug. 28, just three days after the college freshman  was reported missing. His college, Millersville University, announced the news to the student body Saturday. “It is with a grieving heart that I let you know of the death of 19-year-old Matthew Mindler from Hellertown, Pennsylvania, a first-year student at Millersville University. A search had been underway for Matthew since Thursday, after he was reported missing,” the announcement read. “Matthew was found deceased this morning, Saturday, August 28, in Manor Township near campus. Matthew was transported to the Lancaster County Forensic Center by the coroner for further investigation.” Mindler’s family said he “did not return to his room or return phone calls

UPDATE: Spotify has corrected a statement it sent to Variety earlier on Monday that inaccurately stated that West also topped Rodrigo’s record as 2021’s most-streamed artist in 24 hours; West’s record is only for 2021’s most-streamed album in 24 hours. After several weeks of one of the most highly publicized and confusing album rollouts in history, Kanye West ’s “Donda” finally was officially released to streaming services at the unusual, if not completely unprecedented, time of early Sunday morning. While it’s unclear exactly when the album was posted, a press release from Def Jam, West’s label, announcing it arrived at around 8:15 a.m. ET. Around 32 hours later, the numbers are still rolling in, but one thing that can be confirmed is that “On Sunday, August 29, Kanye West’s ‘Donda’ broke the record for the most-streamed album in a day so far in 2021,” topping Olivia Rodrigo and her debut album “Sour,” according to a rep for the streaming giant, the world’s largest paid music subs

The first man to publicly accuse R. Kelly of sexual abuse testified at the singer’s trial in Brooklyn on Monday, Vulture reports. The man was identified as Louis and claimed that Kelly abused him when he was 17 years old. It was also later revealed that Louis had been arrested for offering money to a potential witness against Kelly, and was testifying as part of a plea agreement with the government.     Louis said he met Kelly in 2006, when the singer came to a McDonald’s where Louis was working. Kelly asked Louis to give his phone number to a female colleague, while Kelly also gave Louis his phone number as well. Louis said he aspired to be a musician, and he attended several parties at R. Kelly’s home in Olympia Fields, Illinois. The first time, he went to Kelly’s home with his parents, but during later visits he went alone. He periodically worked on music in Kelly’s studio, though nothing materialized. Related Stories R. Kelly Accuser Claims Singer Had Second Male Victi

“Candyman” director Nia DaCosta made history this weekend when her film took the No. 1 spot at the box office, gros s ing $22.3 million in its opening weekend. The horror flick is a big milestone, both for the 31-year-old filmmaker and the industry: She’s the first black female director to top the box-office chart. “Candyman” is a remake of the 1992 horror classic of the same name. Co-written by DaCosta, Oscar winner Jordan Peele and Win Rosenfeld, the plot follows Yahya Abdul-Mateen II as an artist who moves into the first film’s gentrified Cabrini-Green neighborhood with his girlfriend. The slasher movie also stars Teyonah Parris, Colman Domingo, Vanessa Williams, Tony Todd and Virginia Madsen. The movie beat expectations,  according to Variety , since it was projected to earn $15 million in ticket sales. The blowout weekend for “Candyman” also marks the second-highest opening-weekend gross for a film directed by a black woman. Ava DuVernay holds that top spot, with 2018’s “A

The new “Candyman” opened at the top of the domestic box office this past weekend, making Nia DaCosta the first Black female filmmaker to have a movie debut in the No. 1 slot. Distributed by Universal Pictures and MGM, “Candyman” is a sequel to the 1992 horror flick of the same name and stars Yahya Abdul-Mateen II in the lead role. It was projected to earn $15 million in ticket sales, according to Variety , but wound up raking in roughly $22 million in its first three days. The film was delayed by more than a year due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic and premiered amid concerns of the delta variant’s impact on moviegoing. Peer studios Warner Bros. and Disney have responded to the evolving situation by releasing some titles simultaneously on streaming platforms, but Universal and MGM stuck to their plan for “Candyman” to premiere exclusively in theaters. The film has received relatively positive reviews, though some writers have critiqued how, per Rolling Sto

Political commentator Van Jones says rumors that he and Kim Kardashian dated are “absurd.” Jones, a regular face on CNN since 2013, was linked to Kardashian after she filed for divorce from Kanye West in February because he was said to have been a mentor in her studies to become a lawyer . Jones, however, exclusively told Page Six at the reopening of Jay-Z’s 40/40 Club Saturday, “I never made any comments about the rumors of me and Kim Kardashian dating as I found it absurd.” He added, “It was flattering for me, but it probably wasn’t flattering for her.” Stars including Meek Mill, Megan Thee Stallion, The-Dream, Fabolous, J Balvin and Victor Cruz were also in attendance at Jay-Z’s event Saturday. Former Bad Boy rapper Moses Michael “Shyne” Levi Barrow was there too, but he said he had no intention of performing any of his hits — even if Jay-Z, 51, requested it — because he is now a political representative in Belize. “Absolutely not,” he told Page Six. “I’m here as a leader

“I got tired of seeing it [Black bodies brutalized],” the actor explained. Oscar winner Jordan Peele is giving audiences a fresh new take on a cult classic urban legend: Candyman . Critically acclaimed filmmaker Nia DaCosta directs this contemporary reimagining of Candyman , which returns to the now-gentrified Chicago neighborhood where the legend began, and the original film from 1992 took place. The storyline is timely, and the film is sure to give movie audiences that particular woke horror fix that’s become synonymous with a Peele flick. Set a decade after the last of the Cabrini towers were torn down, Anthony ( Yahya-Abdul Mateen II) and his girlfriend, Brianna, ( Teyonah Parris ) move into a fabulous loft in the now-gentrified Cabrini. A chance encounter with a longtime neighborhood resident ( Colman Domingo ) exposes Anthony to the true story behind Candyman. Anthony’s intrigue in the urban legend opens a door to a past that unravels his own sanity and unleashes a terribl

Kim Kardashian was busted for listening to estranged husband Kanye West’s new album , “Donda,” on mute on Sunday. The KKW Beauty founder, 40, posted screengrabs of the album playing on her iPhone — specifically “Hurricane,” “Donda,” “Lord I Need You” and “Ok Ok, Pt. 2” — with the volume turned all the way down. Fans of course, quickly noticed this detail and immediately began calling her out on social media. “kim really said kanye’s music sounds [so much] better when it’s on mute,” one fan wrote on Twitter . “kim kardashian posting screenshots of her listening to kanye’s new album on MUTE is taking me out,” another joked . Kardashian has since deleted the muted grabs and reuploaded new ones with the volume turned up. But the damage was already done. Internet trolls seized the opportunity to roast Kimye, with one suggesting , “That’s what Kanye did during the course of their marriage: listen to Kim on mute.” Kardashian’s screengrabs of “Donda” all had the music turned down.
