NBC's The Voice returned for a brand new Season 26 with hopes that the four mega-talented judges will find the best voice in America. The reality singing competition show has opened the doors for hundreds of amazing singers, with winners like Danielle Bradbery, Cassadee Pope, and Sawyer Fredericks finding their songs at the top of the music charts. The show even helped propel country singer Morgan Wallen to stardom, despite not winning the show.

For Season 26, two new judges join returning judges Gwen Stefani and Reba McEntire. The two talented men that...

Sonic Sway is a powerful defensive maneuver in Dragon Ball Sparking! Zero that lets you turn your opponent's aggression against them. It's not just a simple dodge; it's like the perfect setup for a counterattack technique that lets you exploit the weaknesses of certain enemy attacks. However, it is very hard to pull off well, and you can leave yourself open to a beatdown if you don't do it right. If you can do it well, though, it's a great tool to have.

Think of it as a calculated gamble. You have to anticipate your opponent's moves and react with pinpoint precision. If you time it right, you can deflect their attacks, leaving them vulnerable while you gain a window to strike back. The gamble part comes with using it at the right time and against the right attacks, especially against a difficult AI. If you know when and how to use it,...

Kii Muneyuki, a former head of production at Japan’s Toei, is launching K2 Pictures, a company that aims to upend Japanese filmmaking practices. Its debut slate, with films by Kore-eda Hirokazu, Iwai Shunji and Nishikawa Miwa, will be unveiled in Cannes next week.

A key part of the new company’s strategy is the establishment of a film fund, K2P Film Fund I, that will invest in live action and animations productions. It aims to attract investors from Japan, other parts of Asia and the U.S.

The company explains that “most Japanese films today are made under a system found only in this country of ‘production committees’ formed by such organizations as film companies, TV stations, and publishers. Funding under this system comes only from sources with film-related know-how, making entry difficult and limiting returns to both producers and creators.”

K2 Pictures, a Japanese production company launched by former Toei producer Muneyuki Kii, is to introduce a new film fund at Cannes and a slate that includes upcoming projects from Palme d’Or winner Hirokazu Kore-eda, acclaimed genre director Takashi Miike and top animation studio Mappa.

The K2P Film Fund I aims to support live-action and animated Japanese features, collaborating with local and international investors from the US, Asia and beyond. Profits from productions will be funnelled back to investors, creators and crew.

Former Toei producer Muneyuki Kim has launched K2 Pictures, which will work with major directors such as Hirokazu Kore-eda and aim to create a new funding ecosystem for Japanese animated and live-action features.

The plan is to return profits that would traditionally go to film companies to investors and creators, which its founder says closely follows approaches used in Hollywood and elsewhere. Creators who team with K2 will be able to participate on projects as shareholders.

Kii, who will be K2’s CEO, says most Japanese films are produced through a system of ‘production committees’ with industry know-how formed through film companies, TV networks and publishers, which it believes makes entry into the market difficult and limits returns to producers and creators.

To this end, company has launched the K2P Film Fund I, which will provide support for animated and live-action features and enable to “investors, creators and crew...

The Voice premiered in 2011, facing strong competition from shows like American Idol and The X Factor. The original coaches on The Voice significantly boosted their careers. Despite early skepticism, The Voice has proven to be a hit show for NBC, fostering successful careers for contestants like Morgan Wallen.

There haven't been many substantial music stars that started their careers on The Voice, but certain contestants from the show did go on to have illustrious careers. When the series premiered on NBC in 2011, it faced stiff competition. American Idol was still the roaring success it had always been. TV personality and music mogul Simon Cowell had just started the American version of The X Factor, which was extremely popular in the UK. It seemed redundant to have another musical competition series, but at least The Voice is still airing, unlike The X Factor.

Currently, The Voice season 25 is airing, and the...

“I was seeking some different environmental energy, and Electric Lady has the best mojo. Great ghosts,” she said in a statement.

The accompanying video was directed by Hannah Lux Davis.

“Sometimes you reach a crossroads. Winds change direction. What you once felt drawn to doesn’t hold the same allure,” Kacey went on to say, “you get blown off course but eventually find your footing and forage for new inspiration, new insight and deeper love somewhere else.

Howie Mandel is under fire from America’s Got Talent fans after he blasted a performance by contestants The Rybka Twins as “a little corny” and claimed their synchronized acrobatic act “would not go viral on TikTok.” Twin sisters Sam and Teagan Rybka appeared on the long-running talent show on Tuesday, July 18, after judge Simon Cowell previously encouraged the girls to audition. But while Cowell and Heidi Klum enjoyed the performance, Mandel and Sofia Vergara weren’t quite as impressed. Dressed in matching neon yellow outfits, the twins performed a synchronized routine to “Sway” by The Pussycat Dolls and “I Will Survive” by Gloria Gaynor. Trae Patton/NBC Mandel started off by saying he “could like it” as the twins “have the skill set,” but admitted he found the performance “a little corny.” As the studio audience booed the controversial judge’s comments, Mandel continued, “That would not go viral on TikTok.

“I found that a little corny,” Howie Mandel declared after watching The Rybka Twins perform their synchronized acrobatic routine during the July 18 episode of “America’s Got Talent.” The sisters from Perth, Australia previously met Simon Cowell on the “AGT” red carpet, where he told them to audition this year. Sure enough, they took him up on his offer, and the rest is history. While Simon and Heidi Klum were wowed by their performance on the big stage, Howie and Sofia Vergara were less enthused. Watch the video above.

Howie trashed the twins’ “music choice” and their “dance choice,” declaring, “That would not go viral on TikTok. Pick different music and pick different moves and make it for a younger audience. You’re 27.” For the record, their acrobatic dance routine was set to the tunes “Sway” by The Pussycat Dolls and “I Will Survive” by Gloria Gaynor.
