In the Virgin River season 5 finale, we learned how Mel met her birth father, and in Virgin River season 6, we're going to learn how Mel's mother met her father.
Jumping off of Mel's major paternity discovery last season, the upcoming new episodes will find the bride-to-be getting to know her birth father, Everett (John Allen Nelson), and part of that will be learning his history.
Earlier this year, Netflix announced that a Virgin River prequel series had been placed in development, and the series would center on Mel's mother, Sarah, and Everett.
On Sept. 23, Deadline announced the official castings for Sarah and Everett's prequel counterparts. Jessica Rothe and Callum Kerr will make their debuts as Mel's parents in a 1970s flashback in Virgin River season 6.

Jelly Roll has finally dropped his new song “Liar,” pairing the track with an emotionally bracing video in which he confronts one of his biggest adversaries — himself.
The song finds Jelly Roll staring down the voice in his head incessantly spouting off doubts and insecurities, before delivering a final blow on the chorus: “You ain’t nothin’ but a liar/Yeah, I walk right out the fire/Yeah, you try to keep me down/Try to put me underground/But I’m only going higher.” In the video, Jelly Roll...

The life cycle of a Foo Fighters song doesn’t always end with a track being recorded, released, and performed on tour. They have records that have made it onto albums, but never onto a tour setlist. They also have some that never made it past the early recording stages, but have been performed live on tour — this is the case for “Unconditional,” a demo the band largely forgot about until they began rehearsing for their current run of live shows. Thursday night, at the Everything or Nothing at All U.

Country star Jelly Roll has released his new single, “I Am Not Okay,” the musician’s first solo offering since his hit 2023 album, Whitsitt Chapel.
The tender tune is centered around the pluck of an acoustic guitar but becomes massive with stadium-sized drums, atmospheric synths, and even some orchestral flourishes. But, obviously, leading the way is Jelly Roll’s singular voice, as he bellows, “I know I can’t be the only one/Who’s holding on for dear life/But God knows, I know/When it’s all said...

Radke holds down most of the verses and the huge pop chorus, though Jelly Roll gets quite a bit of time on the mic to dish out some lines and backing vocals. The production plays up Jelly Roll’s feature with twangy instrumentation and country tropes, while Radke brings the track home with a massive metal breakdown at the end.
The music video is also a lavish production, putting Radke and Jelly Roll in the middle of a barroom brawl in a Western saloon.

Exclusive: Paramount Pictures has launched development on What Kids Want, a new feature scripted by the Like a Boss duo of Sam Pitman and Adam Cole-Kelly, sources tell Deadline.
The film follows up the high concept comedies What Women Want (2000), starring Mel Gibson and Helen Hunt, and What Men Want (2019), starring Taraji P. Henson and Tracy Morgan, both of which were distributed by Paramount. While the former centered on a man suddenly gifted (or cursed?) with the ability to hear the thoughts of women, the latter reversed the equation. The new film will, of course, involve a look into the minds of children.
Todd Garner will produce for Broken Road Productions, alongside Gina Mathews and Grant Scharbo for Little Engine Entertainmemt. Matthews comes to the project after producing What Women Want, along with such rom-coms as 13 Going on 30, All My Life (alongside Garner) and Isn’t It Romantic?...

The Drake-Kendrick Lamar showdown will continue — at the 2024 BET Awards.
The rappers will compete in two categories at the June 30 show: best male hip-hop artist and best collaboration. In the latter category, Drake is nominated for “Rich Baby Daddy” with Sza and Sexyy Red, while Lamar is nominated for his guest verse on the remix of Beyoncé’s “America Has a Problem.”
Drake is the show’s top contender with seven nominations, thanks to his album For All the Dogs (Scary Hours Edition). Lamar didn’t release an album that was eligible this year. The Canadian rapper’s other nominations include album of the year, best male R&b/pop artist and viewer’s choice for “Rich Baby Daddy.” He’s nominated twice in the video of the year category: “Rich Baby Daddy” and his guest verse on J. Cole’s “First Person Shooter,” the late 2023 track that reignited his feud with Lamar.

On Tuesday, March 5, Foo Fighters will take a rare detour from stadium, arena and amphitheater stages to perform at a private, one-night-only concert in Washington, D.C. hosted by Power to the Patients, a non-profit fighting for a more affordable, accessible, and equitable healthcare system through true price transparency.
Find out more about the concert here.
Hip hop legends Fat Joe and Chuck D will also be in attendance.
“When we were asked by Power to the Patients to help raise awareness of the need for transparency in healthcare pricing, we immediately said yes. People suffering from illness and injury shouldn’t have to worry about being bankrupted by surprise charges for their treatment.” — Foo Fighters
With lawmakers, government officials, and their dedicated staff in attendance, Foo Fighters will join the drive to raise awareness about the inequality and uncertainty created for millions of patients when hospitals and insurers hide actual upfront prices.

For 20 students at Pittsburgh Faison and Pittsburgh Westinghouse in Pennsylvania, a school field trip didn’t mean an excursion to the zoo or a museum. Instead, the crew of elementary and high school students took a trip to Ppg Paints Arena on Saturday evening to sing with Lil Durk in a performance of “All My Life” during his opening slot on Drake and J. Cole’s It’s All a Blur tour.
Dr. Kimberly Price, coordinator of performing arts for Pittsburgh Public Schools, was the first line of contact for bringing this opportunity to life.

Billy Joel has shared the video for his comeback single, “Turn the Lights Back On,” his first music video in 17 years.
The video arrives after Joel debuted “Turn the Lights Back On” at the 2024 Grammys. Directed by Warren Fu and the song’s co-writer and producer, Freddy Wexler, the video uses deepfake technology from Deep Voodoo to show Joel singing the song in three different eras: His early career in the 1970s, his mid-career, and now. At the end, a brief montage of Joel’s career, life, and family plays as he sings to a fully empty-but-fully-lit theater. Watch the video below.
In celebration of “Turn the Lights Back On,” Joel’s first solo single since 2007’s “All My Life,” he also stopped by The Late Show with Steven Colbert on Thursday to discuss how the song came together, the Grammys performance, and why his seminal track “Piano Man” is actually a limerick.

When Freddy Wexler was a kid growing up in New York City in the Nineties, there was no artist he loved more than Billy Joel. The 37-year-old singer-producer — who has has written songs for everyone from Justin Bieber and Ariana Grande to Kanye West and Celine Dion — used to sit in his bedroom, put on The Stranger, Turnstiles, or River of Dreams, and dream. “I would imagine it was me performing,” Wexler tells Rolling Stone via Zoom from his house in L.A. “I wanted to be Billy Joel.”

Billy Joel performed at the Grammy Awards for the first time in 22 years, closing Sunday night’s (February 4th) ceremony by playing “Turn the Lights Back On,” his first new music in nearly two decades. He also performed one of his classic hits, “You May Be Right.”
Joel premiered “Turn the Lights Back On” in the days ahead of the Grammys. Co-written by Freddy Wexler, Arthur Bacon, and Wayne Hector, the song is a piano ballad that conveys Joel’s signature style, with a few modern touches. For his Grammys performance, the Piano Man took center stage with a full backing band, complete with Icelandic jazz-pop revivalist Laufey on cello.
Prior to “Turn the Lights Back On,” Joel’s most-recent release was 2007’s “All My Life.” In 2001, he shared his latest studio album, the classical collection Fantasies & Delusions, with his most-recent pop album being 1993’s River of Dreams.

At 48, Killer Mike won three rap Grammys on Sunday and told the audience: “You cannot tell me you get too old. You cannot tell me it’s too late.”
Mike won best rap album for Michael, while his song “Scientists and Engineers” won best rap performance and best rap song. On Twitter, the Recording Academy accidentally announced that Nicki Minaj and Ice Spice’s “Barbie World” won best rap song, though it went to Michael‘s track, which features Andre 3000, Future and Eryn Allen Kane.
“For all the people out there that think you get too old to rap, bullshit. I don’t give a damn if you’re 78 rapping about how many gals you got in the nursing home, make sure we keep hip-hop alive,” he said during the Grammys pre-show held at the Peacock Theater in Los Angeles. The official ceremony will air later from the Crypto.

One of the most exciting categories this year at the Grammys is Best Melodic Rap Performance, where there’s one glaring omission: Nicki Minaj and Ice Spice’s “Barbie World.” The big hit from “Barbie” was relegated to Best Rap Song, showing a lack of enthusiasm from voters (who likely voted for it in the songwriting category due to its high alphabetical placement on the ballot). But the song’s miss ended up making the category way more interesting with a couple of hits now duking it out for the win. With big names in the category such as Drake and Sza, let’s consider who will ultimately be crowned the winner come February 4.
Let’s start with the song that has the least chance of a win: Burna Boy and 21 Savage’s “Sittin’ on Top of the World.” While the track was a big hit for Burna, it...

Taylor Swift is the odds-on favorite to make history with an Album of the Year victory for “Midnights.” It would be her fourth win in the category following victories for “Fearless,” “1989” and “Folklore.” That would set a new record for the most Album of the Year wins for any recording artist ever, breaking Swift’s tie with Frank Sinatra, Stevie Wonder and Paul Simon.

Billy Joel released his first single in 17 years today, “Turn the Lights Back On,” a spare, piano-based ballad that harkens back to some of his best-loved work.
The single is being released by Columbia Records, and marks Joel’s first new material since 2007, when the Piano Man released “All My Life” and “Christmas in Fallujah.” The song was written by Freddy Wexler, Arthur Bacon, Wayne Hector and Joel. Listen below.
While Joel hasn’t released much new music since his most recent rock album, 1993’s River of Dreams, he has continued to perform live. He has played New York’s Madison Square Garden once a month since January 2014 and will end the 10-year residency with the 150th performance set for July. He continues to tour in the U.S. and abroad. He will perform at Sunday’s Grammys, though it’s not clear whether he’ll debut “Turn the Lights Back On” or not.

21 Savage’s third solo album, American Dream, begins with his mother, Heather Joseph, describing her family’s emigration from Britain to America during his childhood. “Every path that I walked was for my son,” she tells us. (Big Rube of Dungeon Family fame penned her introduction.) It’s a concept many others have used before, most famously by Jay-Z and his mother Gloria Carter on “December 4th” from 2003’s The Black Album.

You can’t win ’em all. With so many candidates to choose from every Grammy season, there are inevitably major contenders left out of the running in favor of artists, songs and albums we didn’t see coming. With that in mind, scroll down to see some of the major contenders who didn’t make the cut in the big four general field categories of Album of the Year, Record of the Year, Song of the Year and Best New Artist.
Foo Fighters are missing entirely from the general field, though they were recognized in the rock field. Their album “But Here We Are” was snubbed for Album of the Year, and their single “Rescued” missed the cut for Record of the Year and Song of the Year. Also absent from the general field is Doja Cat‘s “Paint the Town Red.” She missed out on Record of the Year and Song of the Year,...

Leading up to the Grammy nominations on Nov. 10, Rolling Stone is breaking down 16 different categories. For each, we’re predicting the nominees, as well as who will (and who should) win on Grammy night.
If the biggest song of the year (Morgan Wallen’s “Last Night”) has a chance in any of the major all-genre categories, it would be here — Soty technically honors the song’s four co-writers and not him. Ultimately, though, Wallen’s stumbles could rule out a win, or even a nomination. (“It takes me a while...

Prestige carries weight in the Best Rap Song category. In the 20 times this particular Grammy’s been given out since 2004, 16 of those wins have gone to just three big-name artists: Kanye West (7 wins), Jay-Z (5), and Kendrick Lamar (4), with Drake winning two times. This year, Kendrick Lamar, Travis Scott, and J. Cole have big reputations on their side.

Lil Durk is taking his 2023 smash “All My Life” global with a pair of new remixes, one featuring Nigerian superstar Burna Boy, the other boasting the hit Korean group Stray Kids.
Both artists fit seamlessly on the uplifting, emotional track while still bringing their own distinct styles to it. Burna Boy, for instance, delivers a poignant interpolation of the song’s hook, drawing out the melody as he sings, “All my life, they tryna put me on my knees/All my life, I try not to waste precious time, waste...
