Sinéad O'Connor sat opposite me on the phone to her manager. 'Yeah tell them it's not going to be possible, fire regulations yada yada ...' This statement reflects her decision to prioritize her emotional well-being over the expectations of her fans.
I think the rather eye-watering curiosity as to my sexual preferences... well, I wasn't expecting that! Not sexuality, you understand - that was understood - but my preferences within that sexuality framework.
Michael Lyster's reaction to any serious discussion about himself would be swift and direct: 'None of that old rubbish - throw it in the bin.' This reflects his disdain for self-importance.
He is, without doubt, the cleverest host they've had in years, and probably the funniest too. Who else could recreate the famous chase sequence from Weapons - the freakiest horror of 2025 - with the same madcap energy and wit, and not have it be the cringiest sketch of awards season?

ARMY Twitter was aflutter with accusations that the warm-up comic for The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon made a racist joke. He said, 'Anybody here from the North? No? Nobody?' Fans interpreted that as being directed at the band, implying that one of them was from North Korea.
The president is maybe sort of threatening/teasing that he might put boots on the ground in Iran? But Republicans can't seem to agree on whether they support that idea, or for how long, or why. The confusion comes from the top: Pete Hegseth, the defense secretary who made a big deal about turning the defense department into the department of war and refocusing on the core mission: war fighting.
A woman's relationship with Trader Joe's is abstract. It's like the way women see Trader Joe's, it's the way the aliens from 'Arrival' view time. Unlike most men—who make a beeline straight for the same blue-corn tortilla chips that have been there since pre-Obama—women swan dreamily through the store, guided by their foremothers toward the strangest possible products.
Buckley's tribute to her Hamnet co-star at the Critics' Choice awards was better than the preaching we often hear The identity of Jessie Buckley's husband is wrapped in more mystery than the whereabouts of the Ark of the Covenant, or why anyone watches Mrs Brown's Boys.

"Well, I have to say we've been overwhelmed by texts coming in from listeners, but I won't read them all out because my late father used to quote the proverb: 'Self-praise is no praise'. "But on the other hand, he used to also say: 'If you want to be a somebody, you've got to bang, bang, bang on the drum'. Bit confusing for a young lad. "I will read, and I have been reading the texts that are coming in, and to be quite honest, I'm a bit overwhelmed. But the time has come to thank a few people."
When Darragh Ennis first got the call to apply to become a Chaser on ITV's hit show The Chase, he figured it was a prank. "I thought it was my friends who were arranging some sort of wind-up.

If broadcasting talent can be compared to furniture, they've been shifting it around in RTÉ and Newstalk like they were running an Ikea distribution centre. Another piece of the furniture was set down in the Newstalk studio this morning, when Claire Byrne moved back to her old radio home on The Claire Byrne Show (Newstalk, weekdays, 9am-12noon), replacing Pat Kenny.
I was a smiley, happy child. I've had cerebral palsy since birth, so I've never known any other reality. At three years old I went to a disabled nursery connected to a disabled school, and I remember thinking, Why am I here? At the end of the day, the teacher brought my parents in and said, Rosie should be in a mainstream school.
Colbert will appear on Meyers's show as a guest. CBS had announced in July that The Late Show would come to an end in May, more than 30 years after its debut in 1993 under David Letterman. It's not just the end of the show. It is the end of the Late Show on CBS. I'm not being replaced this is all just going away, Colbert told his audience in July. A date for the final episode, however, had not been revealed.
Readers who saw my previous post will recall its focus on a recurring pattern of laughter and humor found during my deep dive into the humor of the Seinfeld series.
