Drag artists shared their experiences attending the Kennedy Center on a powerful night out

Earlier this year, President Donald Trump shouted from TruthSocial “NO MORE DRAG SHOWS OR OTHER ANTI-AMERICAN PROPAGANDA” would be allowed on the Kennedy Center, but he said nothing about the audience. Four drag artists knew this well as they attended the Kennedy Center’s opening night of popular musical Les Misérables, itself known in part for commenting on themes of abuse of power. After the performance, all of the drag artists took to social media to recount their experiences.

They had all been given tickets to the show by The Qommittee, a D.C. based nonprofit dedicated to “bringing drag artists together to protect each other, support each other, and help each other thrive.” The tickets were donated to The Qommittee in part by “season ticket holders, in order to protest ‘Trump’s presence at the show, following his ban of drag at the center,’” The Qommittee told The Daily Beast.

Tom Jones once recruited Pink Floyd's David Gilmour to cover Prince's "Purple Rain."

27 years ago Tom Jones and David Gilmour performed an astounding version of Prince's 'Purple Rain'

In theory, these three names—Prince, Tom Jones, and David Gilmour— shouldn’t even appear in the same sentence. But they just appeared in the same sentence for a weird and wonderful reason: Jones, the husky-voiced baritone pop crooner, once recruited Gilmour, the psychedelic maestro from Pink Floyd, to help reinterpret Prince’s eternal rock ballad "Purple Rain" on stage.

At first, it might be hard to compute what such a cover song might sound like. If you throw "Purple Rain" in a blender with "It’s Not Unusual" and "Comfortably Numb," would said blender just explode? Well, sort of—and that’s part of what makes their live take so fun. The performance dates back to 1992, during an episode of the limited TV series Tom Jones: The Right Time, in which the singer explored how modern popular music had been influenced by disparate genres like country and soul.

When John Lennon and Paul McCartney reunited for a 1974 studio jam, the results were chaotic.

Four years after The Beatles' breakup, John Lennon and Paul McCartney had a chaotic final studio jam

In the mid-'70s, the most coveted "rock star jam" was almost certainly John Lennon and Paul McCartney. The duo had been on awkward terms in the immediate aftermath of The Beatles’ 1970 breakup, briefly trading public jabs through lyrics and interview quotes—and even when tensions settled, they frequently faced questions about a potential Beatles reunion. Given that immense spotlight and the weight of their shared history, it was hard to expect any sort of studio team-up. (The closest they came during that era was in 1973, when all four Beatles contributed to Ringo Starr’s self-titled solo album—just never all on the same track.)

But that long-awaited Lennon-McCartney summit, widely considered their last studio encounter, did occur—just probably not in the way anyone expected. The whole thing was casual to the point of hilarity—and so musically inconsequential, the results only exist through a somewhat obscure bootleg titled A Toot and a Snore in '74. But, ironically, that backstory only makes the event more compelling. It’s worth revisiting this bizarre moment in rock history and, perhaps, pondering what could have been.

Why Harrison Ford immediately agreed to work with Jason Segel after seeing him naked

Apple TV’s Shrinking, starring Jason Segel and Harrison Ford, is a dark comedy following the life of a therapist reeling after his wife’s passing, which causes him to make some unusual decisions about how to assist his patients. It has become a critical darling since it first aired in 2023, starring Segel as the therapist in question, and Ford as his senior colleague. In Variety’s recent Actors on Actors series, its star Jason Segel sat down for a chat with Seth Rogen, where they discussed just how the show ended up with a legend like Harrison Ford in its cast.

The answer, it turns out, was in part a result of Ford’s signature deadpan delivery. Ford was offered the role in Shrinking and wanted to learn more about Segel’s work, so he was given the latter’s filmsThe End of the Tour and Forgetting Sarah Marshall to view. Forgetting Sarah Marshall, the 2008 comedy, in part became noteworthy at the time, and still, for Segel’s comedic full-frontal nudity. Much to Segel’s surprise, he says in the interview with Rogen, Harrison Ford agreed to star in Shrinking while also offering a most remarkable compliment. “I’m in,” Ford texted series co-creator Bill Lawrence, “and tell the kid, great dick.” Rogen promptly explodes into laughter.

Harrison Ford has been in the entertainment industry for over 60 years and in that time has developed a reputation for saying, well, whatever the hell he wants, usually with a straight-faced, honest delivery. For example, when his final Indiana Jones film, Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny, failed at the box office in 2023, he simply told The Wall Street Journal, “Shit happens,” according to Variety.

As Thaddeus "Thunderbolt" Ross in Captain America: Brave New World, the latest Captain America franchise film released in early 2025, Ford transformed into the Red Hulk. In an interview with MTV, Yahoo! shares that Ford told the network that turning into the Red Hulk wasn’t too difficult for a very specific reason: “I don’t want to break your bubble or anything,” he said, “but that’s what the money is for.” He also toldRotten Tomatoes he didn’t even remember what happened on the shooting day where he had to become the Red Hulk on set. Sometimes the job is just the job and “it was an amusing day at the office,” he quipped.

Harrison Ford discusses being Han Solo for the last time on Jimmy Kimmel Live! www.youtube.com

Ford has also become beloved for his appearances on late night talk shows where the actor is never afraid to parody himself. On Jimmy Kimmel Live!, for example, Kimmel asks about how it felt for Ford to play Han Solo for the last time, since “I’m not Harrison Ford, quite a distance from it!” the host says. “I’m actually not either,” Ford whispers, shaking his head, followed by uproarious audience laughter.

The laughter continues now, as Ford promotes Shrinking. The Hollywood Reporter asks Ford in an interview, “What’s your go-to self-care ritual to unwind after work?” Ford stares into the camera, squints, cocks an eyebrow, and deadpans, “None of your goddamn business.”

Amen, Harrison. We wouldn’t have you any other way.

What started as a casual curiosity about family history quickly turned into one of the most shocking revelations of Claire’s life.

The 74-year-old woman, whose story was reported by the BBC, had been gifted a home DNA kit by her son. She expected to learn more about her heritage. Instead, she discovered that she had been switched at birth in a U.K. hospital back in 1967—and had grown up with an entirely different family than the one she was biologically related to.

How a small 1934 college experiment completely changed our relationship with tomatoes

Long before they appeared on hamburgers across the country, the tomato actually had quite a naughty history—or one that was perceived as naughty, anyway. The tomato was initially shown to European colonists in the 1500s by the long-established Aztec civilization in Mexico–it was originally called “Xitomatl” in the native Aztec language of Nahuatl–but because the color red was associated with hedonism and sexuality in Europe at the time, people were hesitant to get too close. They were also concerned it was an aphrodisiac whose purposes would have been strictly condemned by the Catholic Church unless used explicitly for conception.

The tomato’s bad reputation continued this way for centuries, until it then extended into murder. Because tomatoes are acidic, and many plates of royalty were made from lead-heavy pewter, the combination created lead poisoning for many who ate tomatoes off of these plates, National Geographicshared. The tomato had been framed as a “poison apple,” but this reputation changed in part because, as Italian immigrants moved westward in the 19th century, they were among those who brought tomatoes with them as a beloved ingredient. This love later extended across ethnicities and across the U.S., and in particular to a college in New Jersey.

David Foster Wallace was asked to define "Lynchian." His answer involved peanut butter.

Asked about David Lynch's surrealism, David Foster Wallace's perfect response involved peanut butter

Few artists create sounds or images so unique, their very names become adjectives. "Hitchcockian" conjures a highly stylized and unsettling flavor of suspense. "Beatles-esque" can point to dozens of different vibes, from psychedelic marching bands to sweetly sung pop-rock vocal harmonies. But the best example of this phenomenon might be "Lynchian": a somewhat abstruse term used to describe the surreal, largely disturbing, and often darkly hilarious films and TV shows—from Eraserhead to Blue Velvet to Twin Peaks to Mulholland Dr.—made by the late, great David Lynch.

It’s a difficult word to define, but the most profound attempt came from acclaimed author David Foster Wallace, a massive Lynch fan who wrote a famous essay about the director for Premiere ahead of the 1997 movie Lost Highway. "An academic definition of 'Lynchian' might be that the term 'refers to a particular kind of irony where the very macabre and the very mundane combine in such a way as to reveal the former's perpetual containment within the latter,'" he wrote. "But like 'postmodern' or 'pornographic,' 'Lynchian' is one of those Porter Stewart-type words that's ultimately definable only ostensively—i.e., we know it when we see it."
