Tonight, the American Music Awards came and went with appearances from stars like Billie Eilish, The Weeknd, and BTS.

The Crown season 4 episode 6 ends on what may be the most emotionally excruciating moment of the season (and there is no shortage of contenders). After returning from the emotional rollercoaster that was her Australian tour with Charles, Diana is at her wits’ end and requests an audience with the queen. She opens up

The seventh episode of The Crown season 4 is titled “The Hereditary Principle,” which on first glance seems to be a reference to Princess Margaret’s (Helena Bonham Carter) discovery of her long-hidden cousins, Nerissa and Katherine Bowes-Lyon.

Charley GallayGetty Images Last night, my partner and I watched the sequel to The Princess Switch (aptly named The Princess Switch: Switched Again).

Well, here we are. It’s been months since the summer and yet Rudy Giuliani is melting down.

“While I may be the first woman in this office, I will not be the last.” Those were the words from Vice President-elect Kamala Harris will stay with women everywhere long after her historic November 8 acceptance speech.

An example? Whatchamacallit. Tonight, Group B will perform for the third time during season 4, and

There are many rumors swirling around the internet that People has declared Michael B. Jordan the 2020 Sexiest Man Alive and I need to shut all that conversation down because it is not true. I’m not saying that Michael B. Jordan isn’t very sexy, but I do take issue with People coming in here late

In March of 1983, Prince Charles and Princess Diana embarked on their first overseas royal engagement as a couple: an ambitious six-week tour of Australia and New Zealand.

As the world watches The Crown’s fourth season, there’s one character Twitter can’t stop wondering about. Of course there’s Princess Diana (Emma Corrin) and her turbulent marriage to Prince Charles (Josh O’Connor). Gillian Anderson has also made her splashy debut as Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher. But another surprising scene-stealer emerged during the season’s third episode,

Hours after Variety first reported that Taylor Swift’s Big Machine Records masters of her first six albums were sold by Scooter Braun to a private equity group for $300 million, Swift is telling her side of the story. In a letter she posted on social media, Swift said her team had attempted to enter negotiations

The Crown‘s fourth season is stuffed with highly anticipated dramatizations of famous moments, but two of the most notable—Charles and Diana’s engagement, and their wedding—take place largely off-camera.

The first woman
