The stars of Game of Thrones are out there making it happen. Let us count the ways.

First up, Alfie Allen, who played Theon Greyjoy for all eight seasons of HBO’s hit, is making his Broadway debut in Martin McDonagh’s Hangman, and getting glowing reviews; Deadline singled out his performance as a “stand-out” and said he plays a “menacing” character. “[D]on’t look for any hints of his broken-spirited Game of Thrones character Theon ‘Reek’ Greyjoy here.”

It’s great to hear that Allen is killing it on the stage! He was always excellent as Theon and I’m sure his talents can take him anywhere he wants to go. Allen himself posted an image from Hangman on his Instagram:

Hangman is playing at the Golden Theatre through June 18.

Pedro Pascal and John Bradley promote their movies!

Moving on, Pedro Pascal (Oberyn Martell) is talking up his new movie The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent, where he stars alongside Nicolas Cage, who plays a fictionalized version of Nicolas Cage. Below he talks about being a badass onscreen, the advice he’d give his younger self, and some of his unsavory eating habits:

The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent is out in theaters now!

And while John Bradley (Samwell Tarly) may not have a movie out in theaters at the moment, he has two that just came out on home video. The first is Moonfall, a disaster movie where the Earth is literally threatened by the moon. The whole thing has a very ’90s feel to it, something Bradley is fully embracing by sharing fan edits like this one:

And here he is talking about filming one particularly intense scene:

Bradley’s other movie getting a home video release is Marry Me, a romcom with Jennifer Lopez:

Bradley has been very busy of late! And he’ll be back on our screens again in The Three-Body Problem, a sci-fi epic coming to Netflix from Game of Thrones creators David Benioff and Dan Weiss!

Finally, here’s Maisie Williams (Arya Stark) trying on clothes for Porter Magazine:

Because why can’t revenge-driven assassins have fun trying on clothes once in a while?

James Corden’s career has so far taken him from a town in Essex to the Broadway stage, and he has become a firm favourite in American households hosting The Late Late Show.

The English TV presenter will leave his hosting duties on The Late Late Show in summer next year after more than eight years, broadcaster CBS has announced.

The 40-year-old father-of-three, who is perhaps best known in Britain for his role as likeable mate Neil “Smithy” Smith in sitcom Gavin And Stacey, based in Essex and Wales, enjoyed favourable reviews when he was beamed into living rooms across the US for the first time at the helm of one of the country’s most popular television shows in 2015.

The comedian took over as presenter of The Late Late Show from Scottish-born comedian Craig Ferguson, who spent 10 years as host.

Corden, who grew up in Buckinghamshire, discovered a talent for making people laugh while at school, to the detriment of his educational achievements, and got his stage acting break in the musical Martin Guerre at the age of 17, although he quit because he found it boring.

The star, who harboured dreams of being in a boy band as a teenager, went on to land a TV role in a Channel 4 music business spoof Boyz Unlimited.

He then played a regular role in the ITV drama Fat Friends, where he became pally with actress Ruth Jones.

Roles in the stage and film version of Alan Bennett’s The History Boys and the movie Starter For Ten ensured he became a familiar face, and he developed into a national favourite thanks to the comedy series Gavin And Stacey, which he co-wrote with Jones and which graduated from BBC Three to BBC One.

His rise has not been without the occasional hiccup – his BBC sketch show with Mathew Horne and the movie Lesbian Vampire Killers showed he did not have an entirely gilded path.

He starred as part of the ensemble cast in the 2019 live-action remake of Cats, which was received poorly by fans, alongside other A-Listers including Dame Judi Dench, Sir Ian McKellen and Taylor Swift.

Corden, who played gregarious Bustopher Jones, told The New Yorker he had “a great time” making the film but did not have plans to ever watch it.

But he landed serious acclaim for his acting abilities when he starred in the National Theatre, West End and Broadway runs of the production of One Man, Two Guvnors.

The comedian has already enjoyed TV presenting roles, hosting sports shows A League Of Their Own and James Corden’s World Cup Live, as well as fronting the Brit Awards numerous times.

The Carpool Karaoke segment of his US show, which sees him sing in the car alongside various stars, has featured some of the biggest names in the music business including Sir Paul McCartney, Adele, Billie Eilish, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Justin Bieber and more.

In an interview with The Mail on Sunday’s Event Magazine in 2018, Corden paid tribute to late singer George Michael, saying Carpool Karaoke would never have happened without him.

Michael appeared in the first iteration of the sketch, inspired by Gavin And Stacey and filmed for Comic Relief, in 2011.

He told the publication: “It wouldn’t exist without him and his ability to laugh at himself. No question.”

In his personal life, Corden, who moved from London to Los Angeles with his family, has been married to Julia Carey since 2012.

He has hosted both the Grammy music awards and the Tony Awards twice.

The Late Late Show has been Corden’s most successful onscreen venture, and he will have hosted the show for more than eight years by the time he hands over its reins next year.

His first episode aired in March 2015, with Hollywood star Tom Hanks featured as a guest on the opening night.

Like most other major US talk shows, filming of The Late Late Show was hampered by the coronavirus pandemic, including a special fifth anniversary special in March 2020.

An emotional Corden reflected on the show’s success in a virtual message to fans ahead of the episode’s airing.

Looking back on his first show, Corden said: “I’m filled with nerves and excitement and a feeling of when that curtain opened and I walked out for the first time, I didn’t know if I was going to fall flat on my face or if this was all going to be OK.

“And I never thought that day that I would be here today talking to you five years on.

“Thank you for this last five years, for letting me talk to you every night. I never expected it to be quite the journey that it’s been. Stay safe out there.”

Following the announcement of his departure he told US publication Deadline the decision to leave had been “really hard” but he was “immensely proud” of the programme and its achievements.

The research group, composed of scientists from Queens University in Ontario and Stanford University in California, have been studying the mechanics of running in labs for 15 years but hadn’t gotten a chance to study running in the wild before now. “We were able to fuse the two datasets to gain new insights and combine the more messy wearable data with the gold standard lab experiments to learn about how people run out in the world,” says co-author Jennifer Hicks, deputy director of Stanford’s Wu Tsai Human Performance Alliance.

What surprised the team most was the consistency that they found across the combined datasets. “We intuitively assume that people run faster for shorter distances and then would slow their pace for longer distances,” says first author Jessica Selinger, a neuromechanics researcher at Queens University. But this wasn’t the case. Most of the runners analyzed stuck with the same speed, whether they were going for a short run or a long haul over ten kilometers.

From an evolutionary perspective, it makes sense that people would run at the speed that uses the least amount of energy. This caloric conservation is something that has been observed across the animal kingdom. But in the modern world, humans’ reasons for running have changed, and if the goal is speed, there are some tricks runners can use.

“Listening to music with a faster pace has been shown to help speed up stride frequency, which can then increase running speed,” said Selinger. In addition, picking faster running buddies can give you a boost.

Selinger and Hicks hope that having large pools of fitness data from wearables will help researchers to gain insights about populations. “You can look at connections with the built environment and access to recreation resources and start to layer all of that data to really understand how to improve physical activity and health more broadly,” says Hicks.

El compromiso de la cantante Jennifer Lopez y Ben Affleck, 17 años después de separarse y tras volver a enamorarse, se convirtió en la noticia del mes de abril en Hollywood, pues ‘Bennifer’ está más sólida que nunca y pensando a futuro. Sabiendo que están dispuestos a formar una “familia mezclada” con los hijos que tuvieron en sus anteriores matrimonios, muchos se preguntan qué es lo que opinan los pequeños de Jennifer Garner sobre la novia de su padre. Desde Mag te presentamos lo que reveló un informante.

MÁS INFORMACIÓN | Jennifer Lopez y Ben Affleck: lo que dijo JLo sobre su pedida de mano mientras tomaba un baño de burbujas

Una fuente cercana a la pareja aseguró a que las celebridades no tienen en mente traer un niño al mundo, sino que su prioridad es dedicarse a educar correctamente a los que ya tienen. Y es que JLo es madre de Emme y Max, los mellizos de su matrimonio con Marc Anthony; y Violet, Seraphina y Samuel, nacieron del amor de Ben y la actriz de ‘Si tuviera 30′ o ‘The Adam Project’.

“No quieren nuevos hijos, ambos ya pasaron esa parte de sus vidas (…) Lo importante es que la conexión de Jennifer con los hijos de Ben sea muy estrecha, y esa es una de las razones que le han llevado a aceptar de buena gana la situación (…) Ben y JLo regresaron a la vida del otro con una camada completa de hijos, y son muy bendecidos porque todos son realmente buenos niños. Ahora se están enfocando en criarlos para que sean buenos adultos y la fiesta de cinco es suficiente para ellos”, precisó el informante.

Qué opinan los hijos de Ben Affleck sobre JLo

Esta misma fuente también dijo que Jennifer Lopez es muy querida por los hijos de su futuro esposo y que la química es mayor con el más pequeño, Samuel.

“Jennifer Lopez es amada por todos los hijos de Ben, pero definitivamente tiene un vínculo especial con Samuel. Porque Samuel es el más joven de los cinco hijos y es el bebé del grupo, por así decirlo (…) Cuando Ben y Jen (Garner) se separaron en 2015, Samuel era demasiado pequeño para recordar nada de eso, pero siempre ha crecido con dos padres amorosos (…) JLo dice que Samuel se parece mucho a su padre. Ella trata a todos sus hijos como si fueran suyos, siempre respetando el hecho de que Jen es su madre”.

Cómo fue la pedida de mano de JLo

La propia Jennifer Lopez se encargó de revelar los detalles ocultos de su mágica noche y cómo 20 años después, quien más ama la sorprendió con un diamante verde, su color de la suerte: “¿Alguna vez imaginaste que tu mayor sueño podría hacerse realidad?”.

“El sábado por la noche, mientras estaba en mi lugar favorito en la tierra (en el baño de burbujas), mi hermoso amor se arrodilló y me propuso matrimonio (…) Me tomó completamente por sorpresa, así que le miré fijamente a los ojos, riendo y llorando al mismo tiempo, haciendo lo posible para comprender el hecho de que 20 años después, todo volviera a suceder. Me quedé literalmente sin palabras. Entonces me preguntó… ‘¿Eso quiere decir que sí?’”, escribió JLo en una carta a sus fans difundida en su página oficial.

Cómo se siente JLo tras su compromiso

“JLo está extasiada y ansiosa por ser su esposa (…) Ella cree que es amor verdadero y que estaba destinado a ser (…) Ella está tan emocionada y sus amigos y familiares están muy felices”, reveló una fuente cercana a JLo en exclusiva a .

El informante también habló sobre su “diamante de color favorito” y cómo fue la propuesta que realizó Ben Affleck para estar juntos el resto de sus vidas.

Aseguró que la pareja trató de mantener la noticia “en privado durante el mayor tiempo posible” y describió el compromiso como “un momento muy íntimo, solo para ellos dos. La propuesta fue discreta pero muy significativa. Ben quería que el anillo fuera sentimental y puso mucho trabajo en ello”.

La historia de Bennifer 2021

Jennifer Lopez y Ben Affleck empezaron a verse de nuevo el 2021, después de que la autora de éxitos como “Jenny from the Block” terminara su compromiso con la exestrella de los Yankees Alex Rodríguez y que el actor y productor acabara su relación con la actriz española Ana de Armas.

La pareja, apodada “Bennifer 2021″, se ha dejado ver desde entonces en alfombras rojas y paseos en público por el mundo, solos o acompañados de sus respectivos hijos: Jennifer Lopez tuvo dos con su exesposo, el cantante Marc Anthony; y Ben Affleck tres con su expareja, la actriz Jennifer Garner.

JLo, de 52 años, y Ben Affleck, de 49, comenzaron a salir a mitad de 2002 y se comprometieron ese mismo año, pero pospusieron la boda y finalmente la cancelaron en 2004, aunque han asegurado que su amistad se mantuvo a lo largo de los años antes de que se dieran una segunda oportunidad.

Qué opinan los hijos de Ben Affleck sobre JLo

Esta misma fuente también dijo que Jennifer Lopez es muy querida por los hijos de su futuro esposo y que la química es mayor con el más pequeño, Samuel.

“Jennifer Lopez es amada por todos los hijos de Ben, pero definitivamente tiene un vínculo especial con Samuel. Porque Samuel es el más joven de los cinco hijos y es el bebé del grupo, por así decirlo (…) Cuando Ben y Jen (Garner) se separaron en 2015, Samuel era demasiado pequeño para recordar nada de eso, pero siempre ha crecido con dos padres amorosos (…) JLo dice que Samuel se parece mucho a su padre. Ella trata a todos sus hijos como si fueran suyos, siempre respetando el hecho de que Jen es su madre”.

Cómo fue la pedida de mano de JLo

La propia Jennifer Lopez se encargó de revelar los detalles ocultos de su mágica noche y cómo 20 años después, quien más ama la sorprendió con un diamante verde, su color de la suerte: “¿Alguna vez imaginaste que tu mayor sueño podría hacerse realidad?”.

“El sábado por la noche, mientras estaba en mi lugar favorito en la tierra (en el baño de burbujas), mi hermoso amor se arrodilló y me propuso matrimonio (…) Me tomó completamente por sorpresa, así que le miré fijamente a los ojos, riendo y llorando al mismo tiempo, haciendo lo posible para comprender el hecho de que 20 años después, todo volviera a suceder. Me quedé literalmente sin palabras. Entonces me preguntó… ‘¿Eso quiere decir que sí?’”, escribió JLo en una carta a sus fans difundida en su página oficial.

Cómo se siente JLo tras su compromiso

“JLo está extasiada y ansiosa por ser su esposa (…) Ella cree que es amor verdadero y que estaba destinado a ser (…) Ella está tan emocionada y sus amigos y familiares están muy felices”, reveló una fuente cercana a JLo en exclusiva a .

El informante también habló sobre su “diamante de color favorito” y cómo fue la propuesta que realizó Ben Affleck para estar juntos el resto de sus vidas.

Aseguró que la pareja trató de mantener la noticia “en privado durante el mayor tiempo posible” y describió el compromiso como “un momento muy íntimo, solo para ellos dos. La propuesta fue discreta pero muy significativa. Ben quería que el anillo fuera sentimental y puso mucho trabajo en ello”.

La historia de Bennifer 2021

Jennifer Lopez y Ben Affleck empezaron a verse de nuevo el 2021, después de que la autora de éxitos como “Jenny from the Block” terminara su compromiso con la exestrella de los Yankees Alex Rodríguez y que el actor y productor acabara su relación con la actriz española Ana de Armas.

La pareja, apodada “Bennifer 2021″, se ha dejado ver desde entonces en alfombras rojas y paseos en público por el mundo, solos o acompañados de sus respectivos hijos: Jennifer Lopez tuvo dos con su exesposo, el cantante Marc Anthony; y Ben Affleck tres con su expareja, la actriz Jennifer Garner.

JLo, de 52 años, y Ben Affleck, de 49, comenzaron a salir a mitad de 2002 y se comprometieron ese mismo año, pero pospusieron la boda y finalmente la cancelaron en 2004, aunque han asegurado que su amistad se mantuvo a lo largo de los años antes de que se dieran una segunda oportunidad.

Get primed for fear.

When it comes to real high-octane scares, it can be tough to get under the skin of a modern horror fan. Most of us have been jaded to Hollywood tactics since we were children, and have had to settle with other arenas of horror to keep our interests piqued. Sure, what’s not to love about a good splatter-fest or even a deeply twisted mystery? These faucets of our favorite genre are fun and thrilling, but sometimes we all still yearn for that the golden goose of horror: true, unquestionable scares. Luckily, our friends over at Prime Video have a selection of anxiety-inducing titles that will scratch the fear itch of just about any seasoned horror aficionado.

While scares are ultimately subjective, we’ve done our best to scour the current menu of genre offerings over on Prime Video to find the titles that truly go bump in the night. And I think we’ve found ten that will at least have you a little nervous when all is said and done. First on today’s list is the Korean fright-fest Gonjiam: Haunted Asylum from Jung Bum-shik and Park Sang-min. Titled after a very real psychiatric hospital, this chiller follows a very unfortunate crew filming a web series who venture into the aforementioned asylum in order to achieve viral fame. Things … go poorly. Scary, relentless, and totally outrageous, Gonjiam: Haunted Asylum is a terrifying must-watch for all fans of fear.

A more classic and historical horror title to make the following list is When A Stranger Calls starring Carol Kane. Based on a popular and very terrifying urban legend, this little spook show from filmmaker Fred Walton gifted us one of the scariest first acts in horror film history. The legacy of When A Stranger Calls lives on to this day and is even cited as the main inspiration for the legendary opening sequence in Wes Craven’s Scream. In 1993 a direct to television sequel titled When A Stranger Calls Back brought the characters of the first film into the 90s, and it’s also absolutely worth investigating.

Here are the 10 scariest horror movies streaming on Prime Video:

  1. Gonjiam: Haunted Asylum
  2. Paranormal Activity
  3. The Poughkeepsie Tapes 
  4. The Collector
  5. When A Stranger Calls (1979)
  6. Saint Maud
  7. Carnival of Souls
  8. The Deep House
  9. The Town That Dreaded Sundown
  10. Oculus

Another title from the above list that leaves us with our skin feeling like it’s on a little too tight is John Erick Dowdle’s The Poughkeepsie Tapes. A found footage freak show for the books, this indie hellride initially premiered at the 2007 Tribeca Film Festival, but would never see proper digital release until 2017 when Orion Pictures distributed it on DVD and Blu-ray via Scream Factory. This evil, mean, and gruesome shocker will leave even the most hardened horror fans in a puddle of panic. Fun fact: the mask used in this film was actually a quasi-official female-style Michael Myers mask which was quickly discontinued. Dubbed the Michelle Myers mask, this monstrosity is the epitome of uncanny discomfort.

And speaking of uncanny, a personal favorite from the aforementioned list has got to be The Town The Dreaded Sundown. While it won’t necessarily terrify today’s younger audiences, this bizarre meta-horror experience was worlds ahead of its time when it came to self-aware scares and true crime fascination. And while the 2014 Blumhouse remake is nowhere near perfect, it, too, captures a certain uncanny Texas/Arkansas borderline vibe that is worth every penny of that rental. Check both of these films out if you get the chance.

A social media theory that some claim can help show whether the power axis is tilted toward one partner in a relationship has put several high-profile couples under scrutiny to see if they pass the so-called “green line test.”

The relationship of married actors Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith has gained national attention in recent years and weeks following revelations that both have engaged in extramarital affairs and Will Smith’s infamous slap of comedian Chris Rock at the Oscars in his wife’s defense. The internet buzz surrounding the test and talked-about celebrity couples may leave some wondering: Do Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith pass?

The answer is no, according to one TikTok user.

TikTok user JackMacBarstool discussed the green line test in an April 11 post, explaining that it considers body language in pictures of couples. If one partner, particularly the man, is leaning into his female partner in a photo, it means that his “axis” is being pulled in and that the woman who is standing straight wears the metaphorical “pants” in a relationship, he said.

A partner’s “axis” can be tracked by drawing a green line in the direction of their lean, or lack thereof. If a male partner is leaning toward his female partner in a photo of the couple, then they “fail” the test, which Mac said could be an omen that they will not work long term.

Photos that show both members of a couple standing straight, with their green lines remaining upright and vertical rather than tilting, “pass” the test, he said.

He demonstrated the theory with pictures of several celebrity couples, including Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith, Kim Kardashian and Pete Davidson, and Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, all of whom he said failed the test in the photos he displayed. In each of the photos, the male partner was leaning into the female partner.

The green line test is not a proven rule that can scientifically indicate whether or not a couple will last, and whether or not a couple is deemed as “passing” can depend on the picture. The theory was coined by the Twitter user Rivelino, who has also used the account to discuss topics like pick-up techniques and incel-linked theories, Newsweek previously reported.

Despite the results of Will Smith’s and Jada Pinkett Smith’s green line test and some unsupported rumors that a more permanent split is in their future, neither have given any indication that they plan to separate. Both actors have spoken publicly about their relationship, including some of its lower points, but they have also stressed that divorce is not in the cards.

Will Smith told MTV News in 2006 that divorce “can’t be an option.”

“With Jada, I stood up in front of God and said, ‘Til death do us part,” he said. “So there are two possible outcomes. One, we are going to be together ’til death, or two, I am dead.”

His wife has expressed similar views. Speaking about a conversation from before their wedding on a 2018 episode of Red Table Talk, Jada Pinkett Smith said: “I told Will from the gate, I said let me tell you something, ‘If you marry me, know this: we’re gonna be together. We’re going to be under the same roof’… for me personally, I knew that there was no reason that he and I would ever [divorce].”

Newsweek reached out to representatives for Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith for comment.

Ventidue navi attive per 140 destinazioni in tutto il mondo, che toccheranno una quarantina di Paesi differenti.

La World Europa

Ventidue navi attive per 140 destinazioni in tutto il mondo, che toccheranno una quarantina di Paesi differenti. Msc Crociere apre le vendite per l’estate 2023 con itinerari che vanno dalle mini-crociere ai viaggi di 21 notti. Tra le novità, spicca la World Europa, prima nave della flotta Msc alimentata a Gnl, che farà il proprio debutto a fine 2022 e, dopo aver trascorso la stagione invernale negli Emirati Arabi, passerà la propria prima stagione estiva nel Mediterraneo. Gli itinerari di sette notti saranno caratterizzati dalle destinazioni più suggestive del mare Nostrum, con Genova, Napoli e Messina in Italia, La Valletta a Malta, Barcellona in Spagna e Marsiglia in Francia.

“Saranno ben 22 le navi della flotta impegnate per il prossima anno, poiché oltre all’arrivo della World Europa e della Seascape previsto per la fine del 2022, nel 2023 arriverà anche l’Euribia – spiega il managing director di Msc Crociere, Leonardo Massa -.

The study, by Georgetown University’s School of Nursing & Health Studies researchers, appeared April 28, 2022, in PLOS ONE.

Excess mortality, which helps account for avoidable deaths from a new disease or situation, is defined by the difference between total current deaths and deaths expected based on earlier time period, usually the previous decade or so. The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) calculates these numbers weekly. For this study, the CDC excess mortality data were analyzed for the period between January 3, 2020, to September 26, 2021. For regional comparison purposes, areas of the country were broken down into the Northeast, Midwest, South and West.

“Our goal was to carefully examine regional differences in COVID-19 death rates based on reliable statistical data,” says Michael Stoto, Ph.D., professor of Health Systems Administration and Population Health at the School of Nursing & Health Studies and corresponding author of the study. “Our study is the first to quantify avoidable deaths and confirm that both COVID-19 deaths and avoidable deaths disproportionately occurred in the South.”

The investigators found that regional differences in COVID-19 mortality rates have persisted throughout the pandemic. The southern part of the United States has had higher mortality rates than the rest of the U.S. since the start of summer in 2020. Since October 2020, 48% of COVID-19 deaths were in the South, which makes up 38% of the population, pointing to disproportionate outcomes regionally.

The researchers also determined that between January 2020 and September 2021 there were 895,693 excess deaths associated with COVID-19, which is 26% more than reported by other experts who track disease. Although the official total neared on one million deaths in the U.S due to COVID-19 by late April 2022, based on this undercount the scientists believe that threshold was actually passed at the beginning of 2022.

These estimates of undercounts are important because most studies have looked at excess mortality at the state and county level in the U.S., but because of small population sizes, the studies have not examined patterns over time. Some earlier studies explored the relationship between COVID-19 mortality and age, education, and other factors as well as vaccine uptake, party affiliation, and other factors. But most studies have used reported COVID-19 deaths rather than excess deaths, as compared to what Dr. Stoto and collaborators have done, and may not be as statistically reliable.

“This is one of a series of planned studies to look carefully at the response to COVID-19 in the U.S. and other countries and to learn from the experience in order to strengthen preparedness for future potential outbreaks,” says Stoto. “Our team has also looked at testing and surveillance, and other COVID-19 metrics to understand how communities have come together to effectively deal with the pandemic.”

In addition to Stoto, the other authors from Georgetown include Samantha Schlageter, who conducted this work as an undergraduate in the Health Care Management & Policy program at the School of Nursing & Health Studies (NHS), and John D. Kraemer, an associate professor in Department of Health Systems Administration at NHS.

এই খবর সামনে আসার পর থেকেই এক চাঞ্চল্যকর মন্তব্য করে বসেন কামাল আর খান। বিরাটের ফর্ম নিয়ে মন্তব্য করতে গিয়ে তীব্র ভাবে অনুষ্কা শর্মাকে আক্রমণ করে বসেন কেআরকে।

কেআরকে (KRK) এর এই মন্তব্যের পর অনুষ্কার হয়ে ব্যাট ধরেছেন নেটিজেনরাতাঁরা সমবেত ভাবে কামাল আর খানের মন্তব্যকে ট্রোলড করেছেন। কেউ তাঁকে লিখেছেন, ‘একেবারে নির্লজ্জ লোক’, কেই আবার লিখেছেন ‘অত্যন্ত নিম্নরুচির ভাবনা… এতটুকুও মনুষ্যত্ব নেই লোকটার মধ্যে।

প্রসঙ্গত, চলতি IPL-এ এখনও ভালো সময় আসেনি বিরাট কোহলির। তাঁর দল ভালো খেললেও বিরাটের ব্যাট রান করা ভুলে গেছে। গত তিন ম্যাচে বিরাটের রান যথাক্রমে ০, ০, ৯। যা মোটেই ভারতের প্রাক্তন অধিনায়কের থেকে অভিপ্রেত নয়। গত টি-২০ বিশ্বকাপ হারের ক্ষত এখনও টাটকা, নাক কেটেছিল ভারতের। এবার বিশ্বকাপ জয় ছাড়া কিছুই ভাবছেন না বোর্ড। কিন্তু তার আগে চিন্তায় রেখেছে বিরাটের ফর্ম (Virat Kohli Form)। টি-২০ ক্রিকেটে বিরাটের ভবিষ্যত নিয়ে চিন্তাও শুরু করে দিয়েছে বোর্ড।

তবে এই প্রথম না বিরাটের খারাপ ফর্মের জন্য বারবার রোষের মুখে পড়তে হয়েছে অনুষ্কা শর্মাকে।
ইতিমধ্যেই আগামী ছবির ঘোষণাও করে দিয়েছেন তিনি। ঝুলন গোস্বামীর বায়োপিকে অভিনয় করবেন বলে জানা গিয়েছে। ‘চাকদা এক্সপ্রেস’-এ ভারতীয় ফাস্ট বোলার ঝুলন গোস্বামীর ভূমিকায় তাঁকে দেখা যাবে বলে জানা গিয়েছে। আস সেই জন্যই নিজের ডায়েটে বেশ কিছু পরিবর্তন এনেছেন অনুষ্কা শর্মা সম্প্রতি অনুষ্কা শর্মার পান্তা ভাত খাওয়ার ছবি বেশ ভাইরাল হয় নেটপাড়ায়। মা হওয়ার পর বেশ অনেকটা সময় নিয়ে ফিরছেন অভিনয়ে। কারণ অভিনয়ের আগেও তাঁর জীবনের প্রায়োরিটি মেয়ে ভামিকা।

ইতিমধ্যেই আগামী ছবির ঘোষণাও করে দিয়েছেন তিনি। ঝুলন গোস্বামীর বায়োপিকে অভিনয় করবেন বলে জানা গিয়েছে। ‘চাকদা এক্সপ্রেস’-এ ভারতীয় ফাস্ট বোলার ঝুলন গোস্বামীর ভূমিকায় তাঁকে দেখা যাবে বলে জানা গিয়েছে। আস সেই জন্যই নিজের ডায়েটে বেশ কিছু পরিবর্তন এনেছেন অনুষ্কা শর্মা সম্প্রতি অনুষ্কা শর্মার পান্তা ভাত খাওয়ার ছবি বেশ ভাইরাল হয় নেটপাড়ায়। মা হওয়ার পর বেশ অনেকটা সময় নিয়ে ফিরছেন অভিনয়ে। কারণ অভিনয়ের আগেও তাঁর জীবনের প্রায়োরিটি মেয়ে ভামিকা।

Po dvou covidových ročnících se značně osekaným počtem účastníků slavnostního ceremoniálu se letos Ceny Anděl vracejí v plné parádě. Vítězové budou oznámeni ve středu večer v pražském Veletržním paláci. Jména hlavních kandidátů na triumf ale napříč hudební branží rezonují už mnoho měsíců.


Ceny Anděl letos přišly s několika novinkami. Tou první a zřejmě nejviditelnější bylo tříkolové hlasování – veřejnost se nejprve v únoru v každé ze čtrnácti kategorií dozvěděla hned sedmičku jmen, na kterou chtěli akademici upozornit. Z tohoto předvýběru pak hledali užší finálovou trojici.

“Tři kola hlasování jsme se rozhodli zavést kvůli stále vzrůstajícímu množství vznikajících nahrávek. Předvýběr vzešlý z prvního kola má zajistit lepší orientaci pro akademiky a také upozornit na více umělců,” vysvětlil změnu předseda rady České hudební akademie Honza Vedral.

Díky tomuto kroku se v širším seznamu zejména hlavních kategorií skutečně objevilo několik interpretů, na které jsme v Andělech dosud nebyli až tolik zvyklí. Například rapper Viktor Sheen, podle týdenních statistik IFPI dlouhodobě nejstreamovanější domácí umělec současnosti, dostal hned čtyři příležitosti, což ho v tu dobu mohlo v očích některých pasovat na jednoho z horkých aspirantů na zisk některé sošky.

Zrádnost nového systému se však ukázala o dva týdny později se zveřejněním užších nominací, kde najednou Sheen úplně chyběl. Podobně dopadla skupina Jelen se svou třetí řadovkou “Věci & a sny” – přednominovaná byla hned třikrát, počet výsledných želízek v ohni ale zůstal na nule.

Další změnu přinesl zredukovaný orientační seznam pro první kolo výběru potenciální skladby roku. Zatímco v minulosti čítal často stovky písní, nyní se smrsknul na necelé čtyři desítky songů, přísně vybraných podle striktních kritérií, jako jsou hranost v rádiích a popularita na streamovacích platformách. Dlouhý výčet skladeb z minulých let podle rady České hudební akademie “trpěl neúplností a špatnou přehledností”.

Právě tento krok budil značné rozpaky – jako by tou nejlepší písní podle subjektivní volby Akademie nutně musela být některá z objektivně nejúspěšnějších. Nadále sice hlasujícím zůstala možnost vlastního tipu, ten je však obvykle v konkurenci předloženého seznamu obtížně prosaditelný. Kvůli riziku propadnutého hlasu je zkrátka pro většinu porotců jistější vsadit na některou z nabízených variant.

Navzdory těmto novinkám výsledné nominační trojice nenabídly žádná větší překvapení. Uspěli ti, o nichž se už v průběhu minulého roku i v jeho závěru při bilancování mluvilo a psalo nejvíce. A je to tak v pořádku – vždyť zisk ceny by neměl záviset na tom, jak jsou zrovna nastavena kritéria hlasování, ale především na kvalitách oceňovaného díla.

Tak by tomu bylo v ideálním, stoprocentně spravedlivém, světě. V něm však nežijeme, a tak je třeba si přiznat, že v Česku se do udělování mainstreamových cen promítají hned tři zásadní faktory. Subjektivní zdařilost nahrávek, u nás většinou udávaná recenzemi a převažujícím názorem ve velmi úzké hudební bublině, k nim samozřejmě patří.

Druhým, často ještě důležitějším faktorem, je však mediální zásah – ani sebevýjimečnější počin se většinou nedočká ocenění, pokud nemá dostatečnou publicitu. Tím spíš, když se letos počet akademiků vyšplhal až k číslu 370, což už znamená poměrně rozmanitou sortu porotců s různými preferencemi a vkusem. Silný mediální příběh je pojítkem, které zvyšuje šance.

Třetí faktor je tak trochu podprahový, přesto si jeho existenci připusťme: jde o prostou skutečnost, zda mají daného umělce lidé z hudebního oboru rádi. Právě tady hledejme vysvětlení toho, proč se někteří interpreti dostanou do nominací prakticky s čímkoliv, co natočí, zatímco jiným k tomu nestačí ani vyprodané haly a stadiony. Hlasují zkrátka pořád živé bytosti, ne stroje.

Favorité letošního ročníku splňují všechny tři zmíněné předpoklady.

Vladimír Mišík - Noční Obraz
© Vladimír Mišík

Začněme třikrát nominovaným Vladimírem Mišíkem, jehož album “Noční obraz” lze označit za nečekaný dárek fanouškům pětasedmdesáiletého hudebníka. Když v roce 2019 přišel po devíti letech od poslední řadovky s Etc… s novou studiovkou “Jednou tě potkám”, nahranou s producentem Petrem Ostrouchovem a jeho skupinou Blue Shadows, šlo o nespornou hudební událost roku. Tehdy získal Mišík Andělů hned šest. Zdálo se, že jde o jeho loučení – zpěvák navíc loni kvůli horšícímu se zdraví definitivně ukončil koncertní činnost.

Navazující řadovka, nahraná v totožném složení, proto překvapila hned dvakrát. Jednak tím, že vůbec vyšla, a také tím, jak výborná je. Málokdo očekával, že by se zmíněné mimořádně uvěřitelné a příjemně civilní předchůdkyni mohla přiblížit, či ji snad dokonce v některých ohledech překonat. Stalo se. Podle čerstvě zveřejněných statistik IFPI to navíc byla nejprodávanější deska roku 2021 v České republice.

Ewa Farna má dokonce čtyři želízka v ohni. Deska “Umami” ji představuje v novém světle, jako stále mladou, již však dospělou a zcela soběstačnou popovou zpěvačku s rozhledem i názorem. Singl “Tělo” se dostal do médií prakticky jakéhokoliv typu, silnou odezvou na sociálních sítích počínaje, rozhovory na téma lásky ke své fyzické stránce konče.

Poslední dva ročníky byla s Anděly spojená jako jejich moderátorka, nyní se vrací jako žhavá adeptka na vítězství. A možná nejen jedno. V listopadu zabodovala v anketě popularity Český slavík a teď může svou jistou pozici na hudebním trhu stvrdit i vavřínem v cenách akademie.

A pak je tady David Stypka s albem “Dýchej”. Albem, jehož příběh zasáhl nejen zpěvákovy skalní fanoušky, ale i širokou veřejnost. Nahrával ho v době, kdy se pral s vážnou nemocí, které v lednu roku 2021 podlehl.

Navzdory tomu výsledných jedenáct písniček, dokončených jeho kapelou Bandjeez a producentem Martinem Ledvinou, překypuje nadějí, životní moudrostí a smířením. A třeba skladba “O lítání”, přestože z nějakého nepochopitelného důvodu dosud nebyla vydaná jako singl, se již nyní zařadila po bok Stypkových trvalek “Kříž” či “Jericho”.

V kontextu výše uvedeného by nejspíš způsobilo údiv, kdyby akademie přiřkla cenu pro album roku někomu jinému než právě Stypkovi, který má celkem tři nominační šance. S Farnou, s níž ho pojil nejen hit “Dobré ráno, milá”, ale i osobní přátelství, oba reprezentují rodný Moravskoslezský kraj, což lze vnímat jako další symboliku. Oba už tento týden navíc zabodovali na regionálních kulturních Cenách Jantar.

A pokud by navíc v kategorii skupin vyhráli Mirai, jejichž album “Maneki Neko” se sice nemůže pyšnit nadšeným přijetím kritiky, ale zato mělo z děl nominovaných souborů jednoznačně největší komerční dopad, mohl by se tento kraj dočkat naprostého andělského triumfu.

Nutno dodat, že triumfu zaslouženého – v současnosti totiž platí za nejplodnější líheň hudebních talentů u nás.
