The Weeknd Talks Retirement + HBO Max Is Back (Again)
HIGHLIGHTS: The Weeknd hints that he’s starting the process of retiring his stage name Abel Tesfaye debuts his new film Hurry Up Tomorrow in NYC Max is officially changing its name back to HBO Max Warner Bros. releases a new trailer for James Gunn’s Superman The Weeknd Might Be Retiring His Name Soon As he celebrates the premiere of his new film Hurry Up Tomorrow in New York City, The Weeknd—aka Abel Tesfaye—is getting real about stepping away from his iconic stage name. In an interview with PEOPLE, the 35-year-old singer confirmed that the transition is already underway, though not quite complete since he's currently on tour. While he kept some details close to the chest, the news fuels long-standing speculation that this era of “The Weeknd” may soon come to a close. Source: PEOPLE HBO Max Is Back, and So Is Superman After trying to be just “Max,” Warner Bros. is admitting defeat and changing its streaming platform’s name back to HBO Max. The decision was announced at a press event, along with the debut of the brand-new trailer for Superman, directed by James Gunn. The name change is a nod to what fans have been saying since the rebrand—HBO Max just hits different. Between that and a fresh take on the Man of Steel, Warner Bros. is clearly trying to get back in the good graces of viewers.

Starbucks Dress Code Protest + Brad Pitt Inspires Free Burgers in New Zealand
HIGHLIGHTS: Over 1,000 Starbucks baristas strike over new dress code restrictions Union calls for collective bargaining on dress policy changes Starbucks defends the updated uniform rules as branding McDonald’s in New Zealand gives free burgers to anyone named Brad Promo inspired by Brad Pitt’s Easter visit to a local drive-thru Starbucks Workers Strike Over New Dress Code More than 1,000 Starbucks baristas across 75 stores in the U.S. have walked off the job to protest a newly implemented dress code. Effective Monday, Starbucks now requires solid black shirts and khaki, black, or blue denim bottoms—narrowing a previously broader and more flexible dress policy. The company says this change enhances brand consistency and makes its signature green apron stand out. However, Starbucks Workers United argues the change should be negotiated through collective bargaining and accuses the company of ignoring baristas’ voices. Some employees, like shift supervisor Paige Summers, call the policy restrictive and out of touch with actual store needs. A particularly sore point: the company is reportedly still selling now-prohibited branded clothing to employees on its internal site. Sources: Associated Press, Starbucks Workers United Brad Pitt Gets a Burger, Now All Kiwi Brads Can Too In a surprising blend of celebrity and fast food, McDonald’s New Zealand is offering free Quarter Pounders to anyone named Brad. The promo was sparked by none other than Brad Pitt, who was spotted at a McDonald's drive-thru in Auckland on Easter Sunday. A fan captured the moment, and the viral clip led McDonald’s to launch the limited-time offer. All Brads needed to have the McDonald’s app by May 12, and the deal expires this Sunday—so if you’re a Brad in New Zealand, it’s burger time.

You Can Now Rent Patrick Mahomes on Airbnb
Episode Highlights: Airbnb is expanding to include celebrity experiences, like football and BBQ with Patrick Mahomes. New Airbnb services also include massages, personal training, and local experiences. A TikTok health trend called the "human dog food" diet is going viral — and it’s not as gross as it sounds. Airbnb’s Big Move: Rent a Day with Celebs Like Patrick MahomesAirbnb is redefining what it means to “book a stay.” CEO Brian Chesky announced that the platform is launching new service-based experiences, including hands-on activities with major celebrities. Among the first offerings? A day playing football and chowing down on barbecue with Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes. You’ll also be able to spend the day with Sabrina Carpenter or Megan Thee Stallion. This move is part of Airbnb’s push to get people off their screens and into the real world through curated, memorable experiences. Quote from Chesky: “AI is magical, but you know what’s more magical than AI? The real world, and people and relationships and memories.” The Viral “Human Dog Food” Diet Trend on TikTokTikTok has found its next bizarre but oddly logical health craze: the “human dog food” diet. No, it’s not actual dog food. The trend involves chopping up healthy ingredients like chicken, tofu, rice, and veggies into a fine mix that looks more like kibble than cuisine. People are eating it for every meal as a simple, nutritious prep hack. While it might not win any beauty contests, fans of the trend say it’s efficient, easy to prep, and surprisingly satisfying.

Cannes Cracks Down on Naked Dressing and a Possible Cure for Baldness
What’s Inside: Cannes Film Festival bans naked dressing on the red carpet The iconic event kicks off with new fashion rules and old-school glamour UCLA scientists may have found a breakthrough baldness treatment A molecule called PP405 could change the hair game by 2027 Episode Description:The Cannes Film Festival is known for its glitz, glamour, and show-stopping red carpet looks—but this year, they’re putting their foot down on fashion. Organizers have officially banned “naked dressing,” the sheer, skin-baring style that’s dominated celebrity wardrobes in recent years. As the 78th annual event kicks off, the festival is making it clear: elegance is back in, and body-baring looks are out. It’s a shift toward more classic, sophisticated style—at least for now. Meanwhile, in the world of science and self-esteem, researchers at UCLA may be on the verge of a baldness breakthrough. A molecule called PP405 is showing serious promise in early trials, reportedly waking up dormant hair follicles and prompting them to grow thick, real strands of hair—not just fuzz. Backed by Google Ventures and with $16 million raised so far, the treatment is moving through clinical trials and could be available by 2027 if it gets FDA approval. For millions of people, this could be a literal hair-raising game changer.

Rotisserie Chicken at TSA and Why Southern Accents Are Fading
What’s Inside: A woman takes a whole rotisserie chicken through airport security—and it’s totally allowed Her viral moment has the internet talking (and laughing) A new study finds Southern accents are disappearing among younger generations Linguists explain what’s causing the shift—and why it matters Episode Description:A woman has gone viral after casually bringing a full rotisserie chicken through airport security. The internet exploded with reactions to her TikTok, but the real surprise? TSA says it’s completely fine. According to People, the cooked bird passed inspection without issue, sparking an online debate about what you can and can’t fly with—and what’s just plain weird to carry through an airport. Meanwhile, AP News reports that the iconic Southern accent is slowly fading among younger people in states like Georgia, North Carolina, and Louisiana. A new study shows that generational and cultural changes are shifting how people speak, especially as cities grow and populations diversify. Linguists say the "Southern drawl" is being replaced by more neutral or blended accents, and it’s not just about language—it’s about identity and the evolution of regional culture.
