The 2026 Emmy nominations were announced Wednesday, recognizing several of the year’s most acclaimed series across acting, writing, directing and series categories. Awards show darling The Pitt brought in the most nominations with a whopping 25, while newcomer Widow’s Bay also landed an impressive number. But some snubs were impossible to ignore. Besides Zendaya’s nomination for best actress in a drama series, the final season of Sam Levinson’s HBO hit Euphoria did not receive any major nominations. Heated Rivalry was also left out of the nominations, but that came as no surprise due to the fact that shows must have been produced in part by a U.S. studio to be eligible (the steamy hockey drama was fully financed in Canada.) However, it did …

The London-based Liverpudlian is among the most talked-about designers on this season’s schedule. In May last year, McDowell was presented with the Queen Elizabeth II Award for British Design by the Princess of Wales, and later that month Sarah Jessica Parker wore a custom Patrick McDowell floral skirt and shirt in And Just Like That, further cementing the label’s position within high fashion. Following a standout ready-to-wear spring/summer show last September, McDowell showed no signs of dialling it back this season. Drawing inspiration from George Platt Lynes – the 1930s and 1940s Vogue photographer known …

Bad Bunny bagged six Grammy nods, a Spanish-language breakthrough – then the world’s biggest halftime stage

Bad Bunny bagged six Grammy nods, a Spanish-language breakthrough – then the world’s biggest halftime stage

Published by Sam Flores

Only 10 years ago, Bad Bunny worked bagging groceries – a shocking contrast with the cosmic fame the artist now commands. But his bestselling albums, last year’s monumental concert residency in Puerto Rico and an endless string of smashed records are somehow just the beginning. On Sunday, the artist born Benito Antonio Martinez Ocasio could make Grammys history. Then a week later, he will take the world’s most visible stage as the Super Bowl’s halftime performer. Bad Bunny is in the running for six prizes at the Grammy Awards, including the night’s most prestigious Album of the Year gramophone. His acclaimed Debi Tirar Mas Fotos is just the second Spanish-language record ever nominated for the most coveted Grammy – the first was also his, when Un Verano Sin Ti was tipped in 2022. A win would be historic. But the nominations – it’s the first time work in Spanish has been simultaneously recognised for best album, best record and best song – are meaningful all the same, said Petra Rivera-Rideau, an American studies professor at …

Oscar nominations in full: Sinners smashes record with 16 nods alongside One Battle After Another and Hamnet

Oscar nominations in full: Sinners smashes record with 16 nods alongside One Battle After Another and Hamnet

Published by Daniella Wilson

Ryan Coogler’s Sinners has become the most nominated film in Academy Awards history after receiving a staggering 16 nods – including in almost every major category. The hugely acclaimed vampire movie – which was also a major box office hit – is one of 10 films which will compete for the best picture trophy at the ceremony in March, while Coogler is up for best director, and three of its stars (Michael B Jordan, Wunmi Mosaku and Delroy Lindo) are all in the running across the various acting categories. As expected, other films that performed well included Paul Thomas Anderson’s One Battle After Another and Chloé Zhao’s Hamnet – which scored 13 and eight nominations respectively. Those two films are arguably still the frontrunners to pick up the top prize, although the sheer number of nominations for Sinners suggests that it could pose a major challenge as well. Elsewhere, Marty Supreme, Sentimental Value and Frankenstein enjoyed plenty of success – gaining nine nominations each – while F1 was something of a surprise entry in the …

How Kate Middleton’s Crimson Suit Subtly Nods Toward Her Love for Rugby

How Kate Middleton’s Crimson Suit Subtly Nods Toward Her Love for Rugby

Published by Sam Flores

On Thursday, Kate Middleton hosted a banquet for the Red Roses, England’s national women’s rugby team, in Windsor Castle’s Crimson Drawing Room. Decorated to reflect the white-and-red English flag, this is the castle’s most patriotic room, and Kate chose an appropriate outfit for the occasion. To greet the women, who won the World Cup last September, she wore a familiar crimson Alexander McQueen suit with an asymmetrical front. During the event, Kate told the players that she plays rugby at home with her three children, Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis. “Now, if I play at home, I do not want to get tackled by George!,” she said. “It’s such a great game.” Kate also noted that this is a sport young children can play co-ed: “They shouldn’t necessarily need to pigeonhole boys and girls into particular sports too early.” Kate became patron of the Rugby Football Union in 2022, after Prince Harry left his role as a senior royal, and it’s one of the royal duties that obviously aligns with her passions.

Chase Infiniti, Miles Caton Score 2026 Nods

Published by Daniella Wilson

The BAFTA Rising Star Award nominees are in, and Hollywood talents Chase Infiniti and Miles Caton are among the up-and-coming actors to watch. Three Brits line up alongside them: Robert Aramayo for his lead performance in Kirk Jones’ I Swear, a biographical drama about a Scot with Tourette’s syndrome, Saltburn‘s Archie Madekwe, who this year co-starred in Alex Russell’s psychological thriller Lurker, and Posy Sterling, a British Independent Film Award winner for Daisy-May Hudson’s Lollipop. Infiniti is, of course, the star of Paul Thomas Anderson’s political thriller One Battle After Another — so far the major winner this awards season — and tipped for an Oscar nod for her performance as Willa. Caton has impressed the industry with his first film role in Ryan Coogler’s slick vampire horror Sinners opposite Michael B. Jordan, which took home the Golden Globe for box office achievement on Sunday. The nominees for the EE BAFTA Rising Star Award, now in its 21st year, were unveiled at London’s Savoy Hotel on Wednesday with Aramayo, Madekwe and Sterling in attendance. It is the …
