Are you ready it? A new Lifetime holiday movie inspired by the love story between Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce is coming Saturday (Nov. 23).
Christmas in the Spotlight stars Jessica Lord as Bowyn, a famous musician who sings about love and relationship, but with her career taking up so much of her time, dating is nearly impossible. Laith Wallschleger plays Drew, a pro football player who goes to one of Bowyn’s concerts with his niece. Later, he openly admits he has a crush on her and decides to give things a shot, even though their busy schedules might make it challenging.
In addition to Lord and Wallschleger, the cast also includes Emmy-winning host and producer Jeannie Mai and TikTok creator Haley Kalil, who’s making her first appearance on television.

New games are played and reputations are tested in a new adaptation of the 1999 movie Cruel Intentions. Amazon MGM Studios has lengthened the storyline into an original series of the same title and with a modern twist, but that doesn’t mean fans of the original movie won’t see callouts to the beloved ’90s version.

Sesame Street‘s Oscar the Grouch Wicked‘s Elphaba (Cynthia Erivo) can relate to each other when it comes to being green — so why not sing about it together? Just ahead of the opening weekend of Wicked in theaters, Erivo paid a visit to Oscar the Grouch for a duet of a classic, “It’s Not Easy Bein’ Green,” originated by Kermit the Frog on both Sesame Street and The Muppet Show in 1970.
Their collaboration was unveiled on Sesame Street‘s official YouTube channel Wednesday morning (Nov. 20). Elphaba in Wicked is famously green, just like Oscar, though Erivo appears as herself in this performance of the oft-covered, Joe Raposo-penned song. Among the many covers of “Bein’ Green” that have been recorded over the years are versions by Frank Sinatra (1971), Van Morrison (1973), Diana Ross (1974), Ray Charles (1975), Don Henley (1994) and Tony Bennett (1998).
In this version, Oscar — who seems to just want to fit in with the neighborhood trash cans he frequents — sings, “It’s not easy bein’ green/ Having to spend each day the color of the leaves/ When I think it could be nicer being gray or rust or puce/ Or something much less colorful like that.”
Trending on Billboard
“Hold on,” Erivo interrupts, cleverly pointing out, “Now, I know a thing or two about being green … And you should like — well, no, love — being green, Oscar.”
“Really? You’re talking to a grouch here,” Oscar says in the video.The actress responds with a reminder to be proud of who you are, and then lends her gorgeous voice to the next verse, making all things green sound simply sublime: “Because green is the color of slime/ And green can be gross and moldy-like/ And green can be smelly like a stinkweed, or angry like an alligator, or sour like a pickle.”
Their voices come together as Erivo harmonizes with the green monster of Sesame Street, singing, “When green is all there is to be/ It could make you wonder why/ But why wonder, why wonder?”
“I am green and it’ll do fine/ It’s yucky, and I think it’s what I want to be,” Oscar decides.
But don’t worry. He snaps out of that sweet moment just in time to tell the movie star to “Scram!”
“Never change, Oscar,” says Erivo.
Watch their “It’s Not Easy Bein’ Green” duet below. Wicked officially opens Nov. 22, with early screenings in select theaters on Nov. 20.

Robbie Williams has penned an open letter to former Take That manager Nigel Martin-Smith, following claims he made regarding Williams’ past drug use in new BBC docuseries Boybands Forever.

Both the British pop icon and Martin-Smith appeared as talking heads in the first installment of the three-part series, which aired on Saturday (Nov. 16). The episode focused on the mental and financial struggles that members of Take That, East 17, A1 and Damage dealt with at the height of their popularity.
Martin-Smith managed Take That in the 1990s when Williams was a member of the group, before the latter quit in 1995 and went on to launch an enduring, successful career as a solo act. Across three decades, he has gone on to earn 13 No. 1s on the U.K Albums Chart and 18 BRIT Awards, including the prestigious BRITs Icon accolade in 2017.
Trending on Billboard
In the documentary, Williams addresses his history of drug use, saying that at one point he was made out to be “evil.” Martin-Smith goes on to say that the singer was “smart and quite clever” to blame his issues on being “in this band where he couldn’t have girlfriends or couldn’t go out.”
Williams also responded to these assertions via a lengthy statement posted to Instagram on Nov. 17. “I was equal parts terrified and excited to be sharing a screen with you again,” he said, addressing Martin-Smith. “Excited to see where we both are on this journey and terrified in case old emotions would be triggered and I’d still be in a place of anger, hurt of fear.
“As it happens, it would appear that time has done its thing and I guess the wisdom it brings has taken its mop to a few nooks and crannies here and there. I guess not every nook has been bleached, though.”
He then highlighted Martin-Smith’s comments about his drug use at the time. “My response to the warped world that surrounded me is solely my own. How I chose to self-medicate is and was something that I will be monitoring and dealing with for the whole of my life,” Williams wrote. “It’s part of my makeup and I would have the same malady had I been a taxi driver. I just got there quicker due to having the finances while trying in vain to counteract the turbulence of pop stardom’s matrix-bending washing machine.”
Encouraging Martin-Smith to take accountability for some of the struggles Take That faced behind the scenes, Williams continued: “Everyone will understand and appreciate that level of self-reflection. It’s OK to admit your shortcomings. No one is going to sue you for not knowing or understand[ing] the psychological effects everything was having on everyone.”
Martin-Smith has not yet responded to Williams’ open letter.
Williams’ comments follows a similar post he made about the late Liam Payne, remarking that boy bands need sufficient emotional support and that there needs to be a push for something to be “done in his name to make things better.” The One Direction star died after falling from the third floor of a hotel in Buenos Aires, Argentina, on Oct. 16.
Shortly after Payne’s death, a petition was launched calling for a new law to safeguard the mental well-being of young artists. It has currently received more than 149,000 signatures.
Elsewhere, the compilation soundtrack to Williams’ biopic Better Man will be released on Dec. 26 in the U.K. and Ireland, and on Jan. 17 in the U.S. and Canada. Featuring his greatest hits, Better Man will tell the story of Williams’ life from his childhood in Stoke-on-Trent, England, through to his fame with Take That and subsequent solo career. Williams will be played by a CGI monkey throughout the film directed by Michael Gracey (The Greatest Showman).
Through summer 2025, Williams will embark on a lengthy tour across the U.K. and Europe, including a night at London’s 60,000-capacity Emirates Stadium. Support will come from Warrington rock band The Lottery Winners, as well as Rag ‘N’ Bone Man on select dates.
Apple Original Films has unveiled plans for a new definitive documentary chronicling the legendary Fleetwood Mac.
Directed by acclaimed filmmaker Frank Marshall, a five-time Academy Award nominee and winner of the Irving G. Thalberg Memorial Award, the project marks the first fully authorized documentary about the band.
For the first time, Fleetwood Mac members will narrate their own extraordinary story, supported by exclusive interviews, archival footage, and unseen material, including tributes to the late Christine McVie.

The film promises to delve into Fleetwood Mac’s meteoric rise and the personal and professional dynamics that shaped their legacy.
From the band’s formation in 1967 to their groundbreaking albums and record-breaking tours, the documentary will explore the unique alchemy between Mick Fleetwood, John McVie, Lindsey Buckingham, Stevie Nicks, and Christine McVie that produced some of the most enduring music of the modern era.
Trending on Billboard
Fleetwood Mac’s impact on the Billboard charts underscores their legendary status. The band has charted 25 songs on the Billboard Hot 100, with nine Top 10 hits, including their sole No. 1 single, “Dreams,” which spent 19 weeks on the chart during its original release in 1977. On the Billboard 200, the band has placed 30 albums, with four reaching the summit: Fleetwood Mac (1975), Rumours (1977), Tusk (1979), and The Dance (1997).
Their 1977 masterpiece Rumours achieved an extraordinary 31 weeks at No. 1 and remains one of the best-selling albums of all time, with over 40 million copies sold globally, with over 20 million copies being in the US alone.
In a statement, director Frank Marshall reflected on the band’s cultural significance, saying, “I am fascinated by how this incredible story of enormous musical achievement came about. Fleetwood Mac somehow managed to merge their often chaotic and almost operatic personal lives into their own tale in real-time, which then became legend. This will be a film about the music and the people who created it.”
Producer Nicholas Ferrall added, “We are thrilled to continue our creative partnership with Frank and the talented team at Kennedy/Marshall. Fleetwood Mac are a musical phenomenon, their alchemy almost beyond comprehension. White Horse is grateful and humbled by the extraordinary opportunity to produce a documentary that dives deep into both the talents of each band member individually and the magic that is Fleetwood Mac as a whole. And to do this with the support and reach of Apple is quite wonderful.”
The documentary, which is yet to be titled, joins Apple Original Films’ prestigious catalog of projects, including the Academy Award-winning CODA and the Emmy-winning STILL: A Michael J. Fox Movie.
It’s not easy to shop for someone who is turning 93. He or most likely she has everything they want or need. That may be especially true if they’re an EGOT. With that kind of hardware around, do they really need another bauble?
But Mattel came up with a good way of recognizing Rita Moreno as she turns 93 on Dec. 11. She’s getting her own Barbie doll, part of the Barbie Tribute Collection. With a suggested retail price of $40, the doll will be available in the Mattel Shop beginning Nov. 20.
Despite the twin obstacles of sexism and discrimination that she faced as a woman of color on her self-made path to stardom, Moreno emerged as one of the very few Latin movie stars in the Golden Age of Hollywood. (She was born in Puerto Rico and lived there until she was five.) In 1977, Moreno became just the third person to complete the EGOT (following composer Richard Rodgers and actress Helen Hayes). Moreno was just 45 at the time. She was the youngest person to EGOT until 2014, when Robert Lopez achieved the feat at 39.

“I was a girl who decided to go for it, and despite the challenges I faced, I never gave up on my dreams,” Moreno said in a statement. “That’s what I hope this doll inspires in each and every girl today: to live their life with courage and resilience so that they can make their dreams a reality. It’s been an absolute pleasure to work with Barbie to bring this doll to life, and I hope it serves as a reminder to embrace your limitless possibilities and pursue your passions because when you embrace them, you’re bound to go far.”
The Barbie Rita Moreno doll wears an elegant gown that echoes many designs Moreno has worn on the red carpet. Barbie worked closely with Moreno to sculpt a doll in proper reflection of her likeness, working with the star from the initial design to the final touches.
Rita Moreno
Mattel
“It’s an honor to celebrate Rita Moreno as the latest addition to our Barbie Tribute Collection,” Krista Berger, svp of Barbie and global head of dolls, Mattel, said in a statement. “As one of the few performers to achieve EGOT-status stardom, she has shattered stereotypes and barriers for Latinas in the entertainment industry and beyond.”
The Barbie Tribute Collection was conceived to celebrate visionaries for their contributions, impact and legacy as trailblazers. The series kicked off in August 2021 by paying tribute to TV legend Lucille Ball. The Tribute Collection has since recognized such diverse figures as designer Vera Wang and actress, producer, writer and LGBTQ+ advocate Laverne Cox.
Moreno isn’t the oldest person upon to have a Barbie doll made her in her honor. Barbie honored Queen Elizabeth II with a Barbie Tribute Collection doll in celebration of her Platinum Jubilee in 2022. The Queen was 95 at the time.
Nor is she the first Latina to have a Barbie doll made in her honor. Barbie continues expanding Latin representation in its doll collection, including the Isabel Allende Inspiring Women doll that launched in September 2024.
Moreno isn’t even the first EGOT recipient to have a Barbie doll made in her honor. Barbie previously honored Audrey Hepburn with a doll, dressed in an outfit she wore in her iconic, Oscar-nominated performance in Breakfast at Tiffany’s. In March, Barbie celebrated International Women’s Day and the brand’s 65th birthday by honoring Viola Davis and other storytellers with a one-of-a-kind role model doll made in their likeness. (These dolls were not available for purchase.)
Additional accolades Moreno has received include the Presidential Medal of Freedom in 2004, the National Medal of Arts in 2009, the Screen Actors Guild Life Achievement Award in 2013, the Kennedy Center Honor in 2015, and a Peabody Award in 2019.
