From singing sensations to Hollywood flops, here's what's trending in entertainment today.
PRANKED YA!
A promo for TV host Nick Cannon's Who's Having My Baby game show is going viral. (Cannon is already the father of 12 children.) But is it too ridiculous to be true? Yup, it is. Posts about the faux game show were actually promotions for an upcoming series he'll be hosting with comedian Kevin Hart called Celebrity Prank Wars. It will premiere April 6 on E!
STAR WARS, INDEED
The battle to get movies made in a galaxy far, far away seems to be brutal. Star Wars projects from Marvel Studios chief Kevin Feige and hot-shot director Patty Jenkins have been canned, according to a report from Variety. They were not your only hope, though, fans. Taika Waititi, the filmmaker behind Thor: Love and Thunder, is still reportedly working on a feature for the Star Wars universe that could hit theaters in December 2025.
ALL LACED UP AND NOWHERE TO GO
What would you do with $1 billion worth of unsellable Yeezys? That's what Adidas is trying to figure out.

If the company sells them, they'll have to pay the rapper royalties, but there are "sustainability issues" with destroying them.
Mariah Carey's "All I Want for Christmas Is You" has reached No. 1 on Billboard's Hot 100 chart the past four years in a row and it's reasonable to assume 2023 will be no different.
A person of interest has been arrested in connection with the fatal stabbing of a Detroit synagogue leader whose death after the start of the Israel-Hamas war prompted speculation the slaying could have been the result of antisemitism.
