Although Gwen Stefani and Blake Shelton used to be “inseparable” from one another, the couple has spent much more time apart recently.
The couple met through their appearance on NBC’s The Voice as coaches for the show and eventually married. However, divorce rumors have recently been swirling.
Part of the ongoing speculation comes as they’re “spending a lot of time away from each other,” a source revealed.
As the new year arrived, they were far away from one another due to performances.
Gwen appeared at The Venetian in Las Vegas, Nevada, while her husband performed at Nashville’s Big Bash in Tennessee.
They both have busy schedules for 2024, which will also mean a lot more time apart.

Singer-songwriter Jimmy Buffett was undergoing treatments for an aggressive form of skin cancer at the time of his death.
Buffett died at age 76 while he was being treated for Merkel cell carcinoma, a rare form of skin cancer that “usually appears as a flesh-colored or bluish-red nodule, often on your face, head or neck. Merkel cell carcinoma is also called neuroendocrine carcinoma of the skin,” according to Mayo Clinic.
He battled the disease for four years, according to his website. Plus, “He continued to perform during treatment, playing his last show, a surprise appearance in Rhode Island, in early July.”
So what is Merkel cell carcinoma? What causes it and how is it treated?

For starters, Gwen Stefani and Gavin Rossdale‘s 17-year-old son, Kingston, made his live music debut at Blake Shelton‘s restaurant-bar Ole Red, where Kingston made it crystal clear he’s already quite the rock star.

There’s a ton of video circulating on social media in which Kingston can be seen putting on a deft performance. He later thanked the crowd for the support before Shelton walked up on stage to give him a big ‘ol hug.

In Apple TV+’s Black Bird, Dennis Lehane’s limited series about convicted criminal Jimmy Keane (Taron Egerton) trying to elicit a confession from suspected serial killer Larry Hall (Paul Walter Hauser), cinematographer Natalie Kingston knew she wanted to tackle toxic masculinity from a fresh angle.
Speaking during Deadline’s Contenders Television: The Nominees event, Kingston, who shot all six episodes, said, “Dennis’ perspective on this was really inspiring and really what got me into this. He wasn’t interested in playing up the violence, being very literal with the story, being on the nose, making these killings feel very heightened or theatrical. It wasn’t about that at all.”
Instead, Kingston noted, the work was to tell “a human story.” Lehane’s telling, based on true events, is “character-driven,” she added, “and it’s about this uncomfortable tense dialogue between these two prisoners and this unlike, false friendship and about the different,...

For the July 17 edition of Weakest Link, hosted by Jane Lynch, eight WWE stars face off in a different match, but with the same smack talk as usual, especially from The Miz and Kofi Kingston. In TV Insider’s exclusive clip above, The Miz (a The Real World alum) incorrectly guessed iguana when asked to name the reptile that changes color based on its mood. As the grappler winces at the wrong answer, Lynch says the correct answer is chameleon. Kingston then compares WWE stars to chameleons, who have to “wear a lot of hats.” After saying Kingston tells The Miz he should know what a chameleon is, The Miz aggressively answers, “I’m just me! I am just a humble man!” Kingston mocks the suggestion that The Miz is humble as he continues his tirade. “A devoted father, a loving husband, and a simple man in a simple suit playing the Weakest Link.

On Friday, the country music star was honoured with his very own famous pink star on Hollywood Boulevard and, during his acceptance speech, Shelton used his time on stage to shower his wife, who was there to cheer him on, with a sweet compliment.
“I kind of stopped checking things off my list of great accomplishments in my life when I married Gwen, so this is just icing on the cake,” the singer told the audience.
“I love you so much,” Shelton, 46, told Stefani, “and that’s the great thing that’s happened along this journey.”

Blake Shelton and Gwen Stefani both have busy careers, but the spouses are there to support each other as much as possible. Shelton recently showed love for his wife by surprising her with a birthday party for her makeup line, Gxve Beauty, during a stop on his “Back to the Honky Tonk” Tour. In a video from the party, Shelton can be seen getting a little cheeky with Stefani’s photo on a banner.

Sister Wives Season 18 is expected to drop in September 2023. Here are five shows about polygamy that Sister Wives fans may enjoy while waiting for the new season.
The Brown family | TLC/discovery+ ‘Escaping Polygamy’
Unlike Sister Wives, Escaping Polygamy gives fans an honest look at what it’s like to leave polygamy and their families behind without any support from the outside world. This gritty Lifetime series aims to show the harsh realities of leaving a religious cult following three sisters, Andrea, Jessica, and Shanell.
The sisters, all born to the same father, John Daniel Kingston, escaped the family’s polygamist cult known as The Kingston clan, or ‘The Order.’ It is known to be one of the most secretive and dangerous sects of the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints (Flds).
After getting free, the girls help their loved ones and strangers to get free from the grips of polygamy.

Match #1: Imperium def. Braun Strowman, Ricochet and Madcap Moss The following of courtesy of wwe.com:
There was plenty of recent history brought into the ring, as Braun Strowman, Ricochet & Madcap Moss set out for some payback against Gunther, Ludwig Kaiser & Giovanni Vinci. After a chaotic back-and-forth, the Intercontinental Champion and The Monster Among Men stood toe-to-toe in the ring trading chops and punches. Gunther closed the door with a vicious Powerbomb to Moss with Drew McIntyre watching at ringside.

Match #1: Nxt North American Championship Match – Wes Lee def. Dijak The following is courtesy of wwe.com:
Dijak promised that Hard Justice was coming, but Wes Lee proved himself to be a worthy champion. The bruising challenger was more than formidable, using his clubbing strikes and his size advantage to ground the high-flying Lee and keep the raucous crowd from backing the champ. Lee’s fortitude shined bright when he absorbed every brutal blow and dished out some incredible offense, highlighted by a twisting splash off the top rope. Dijak may have had Lee dead to rights on the outside, but Tony D’Angelo and Channing “Stacks” Lorenzo appeared and bared the brunt...

Welcome back to another review of Aew Dark: Elevation, which features 11 matches on this week’s show – urghhhh, I’m not a fan of these longer cards, especially given most matches are usually squashes! We’ve got Paul Wight and Matt Menard on commentary, so let’s get into the review.
Match #1: Brian Cage def. Schaff
My Thoughts: As this started I thought “here we go, another Brian Cage squash” but that is Not what we got! The crowd in attendance were clearly behind Schaff and so we actually got something of a competitive match, with Cage letting Schaff showcase his stuff for those unfamiliar with his work. In the end that made for a great match!

Both Superstars showed off their supreme skills with highly athletic aerial moves combined with grueling mat technician skills. Hayes was able to slow Crews down with a strategically placed leg kick on the apron, but Crews overcame it and put together an incredible string of combination offense, including a massive superplex. The two men traded big blows, but Hayes finally got Crews down on the mat long enough to hit his signature Nothing But Net leg drop...

Billie Lourd posted an emotional tribute to her late mother, Carrie Fisher, on the sixth anniversary of her death Tuesday.
The photo shows a young Lourd and her mother smiling together at a restaurant. Fisher died suddenly of cardiac arrest in 2016 at the age of 60.
“It has been 6 years since my Mom died (feels like 2 but also like 705 at the same time) and unlike most other years since she’s died, this year, these past two weeks have been some of the most joyful of my life,” she wrote. “Giving birth to my daughter and watching my son meet her have been two of the most magical moments I have ever experienced. But with the magic of life tends to come the reality of grief.”
Lourd, 30, and her husband Austen Rydell welcomed their second child earlier this month, daughter Jackson Joanne. They are also parents to their two-year-old son Kingston.

Match #1: Undisputed WWE Tag Team Championship – The Usos def. The New Day The following is courtesy of wwe.com:
With history on the line, The New Day were hoping to keep hold of their record run as tag team champions, and they brought everything they had to the titleholders. The Usos isolated Kofi Kingston from Xavier Woods, not allowing Kingston to tag him in. When Kingston eventually tagged in Woods, the former King of the Ring was a house on fire, almost capturing the titles after a flurry of offense. A huge top-rope leg drop from Woods nearly sealed the deal, but Jimmy kicked out at 2.9 repeating. The Usos had a heart-pounding moment of their own, as Woods kicked out of a massive Double Uso Splash.

In Gold Derby’s recent discussion with several television cinematographers, as part of our Meet the Experts panel, several directors of photography dished about what made them want to work behind the camera as well as projects that they would love to work on. The cinematographers we talked to included Natalie Kingston (“Black Bird”), Arnau Valls Colomer (“The English”), Ramsey Nickell (“Five Days at Memorial”) and Caleb Heymann (“Stranger Things”).
You can watch the television cinematographers group panel above with the people behind these four projects. Click on each person’s name above to be taken to each exclusive video interview.
Colomer became fascinated with the film industry when he started taking photography lessons at age 16.

When Natalie Kingston was setting up how she was going to photograph the limited series, “Black Bird,” she found a specific piece of inspiration for what look the show would have. “The crux of my visual inspiration was from the photographer, Gordon Parks, and this 1957 photo essay he did called ‘The Atmosphere of Crime,’” she tells Gold Derby during our Meet the Experts: TV Cinematographers panel (watch the exclusive video interview above).
Kingston remembers how visceral the photos were in using natural light but also having a moody and cinematic feel to them. “That really spoke to me. You could just feel the texture almost in these photos. There was this pastel color palette that I really responded to that I thought could be an interesting visual juxtaposition for the tone and the themes that we were exploring in ‘Black Bird.’”

My Thoughts: Wow. We get an Roh title match on Elevation. Surprising. What’s not surprising is how not into this match the crowd was – which really hurt proceedings Imho. Good to see Dalton Castle and The Boys in action but let’s not let the Trustbusters anywhere near those titles ever again,...

Welcome back to another review of Aew Dark: Elevation, and yes, given how much wrestling we had to cover last week I missed last week’s show! This week features seven matches and a number of big-name stars! We’ve got Ian Riccaboni, Matt Menard and Jose the Assistant on commentary, so let’s get into the review…
Match #1: 10 def. Baron Black
My Thoughts: Baron Black jumped 10 before the bell and 10 totally no-sold it, along with everything else Black tried to throw at him. I do wonder what the plan is for 10… He is being head-hunted by Jose the Assistant on behalf of the Lfi, yet when he gets a decent singles match Aew throw Orange Cassidy into the mix?! Then he goes and has squash matches like this. What is the plan? What It It?!
My Score: 1 out of 5 Match #2: Eddie Kingston and Ortiz def. Russ Myers...
