Rising Pop Badass Adéla Arrives in a Big Way With ‘Prima’: Album Review

Being eliminated from the “Dream Academy” reality-TV series that produced Katseye might be the best thing that ever happened to 22-year-old Slovakian native Adéla Jergová: After a summer of lighting up festival stages from Lollapalooza to Reading, the arrival of “Prima” makes it more obvious than ever that a group couldn’t contain her.

‘A Place to Heal’ Review: An Intensely Performed French Teen Psych Ward Drama That Shifts Uneasily Between Reality and Fiction

Writer-director Cédric Kahn is perhaps best known outside France for helming tense, extremely bleak thrillers — Red Lights, Roberto Succo and L’Ennui — bathed in both film noir and existential angst. But he’s also tried his hand at several other genres, including a supernatural kids flick (The Plane), a gritty tale of rehab and religion (The Prayer), an engrossing courtroom drama (The Goldman Case) and, for his memorable second feature from 1994, a striking coming-of-age story called Too Much Happiness.

Lea Salonga on ‘Miss Saigon,’ ‘Aladdin’ and Supporting Her Trans Son Amid Anti-Trans Rhetoric: ‘It Makes Me Intensely Afraid and Not Just for My Child’

Tony winner Lea Salonga admits she never really thought about getting a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

“Most of my work is in musical theater,” says Salonga, who earned international recognition for originating the role of Kim in “Miss Saigon” in 1989. “So even though musical theater does reach Los Angeles and Hollywood, it’s not something that I thought would actually happen. It’s not like the kind of Hollywood career that, say, somebody like Bette Davis or Katharine Hepburn or any of those icons of the screen or television have had. This is something that I did not foresee.”

Tesla Officially Launches Cybercab And Is Immediately Hit With NHTSA Safety Probe - Jalopnik

Tesla

After nearly two years, the Tesla Cybercab is here. Tesla, a company known for its huge flashy releases, quietly launched the Cybercab in Austin, Texas last night — not unlike the way it announced its first production line-built Cybercab, with a single photo of the car almost entirely obscured by workers. But, quiet or loud, we now live in a world that has Tesla's stupid little driverless two-door bronze liftback. Also, a world in which that stupid little liftback is already the subject of a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration investigation. 

Deadly escalation in Black Sea attacks prompts fears of even higher food prices

A summer of hostilities in the Black Sea proved deadly for seafarers, as Russia and Ukraine attacked each other’s ships and port infrastructure, preventing vital grain exports and prompting concerns that the conflict will push global food prices even higher.

Capcom Has Been on a 10-Year Winning Streak, and Onimusha: Way of the Sword’s Design Is the Perfect Demonstration of Why the Publisher Keeps Winning

There are very few publishers who can claim to have had quite as prosperous a decade as Capcom. The company’s 10 best-selling games all launched within the past 10 years, a chain of good fortune that began with 2017’s Resident Evil 7. Capcom’s reimagining of gaming’s most important survival horror series became something of a formula for its wider success, and that template can be seen in action once again with this year’s Onimusha: Way of the Sword.

'That criticism is justified': Gamescom apologizes for its callous response to developer hardware thefts
