A message to 'Wicked' moviegoers: Shhh |
They might be belting out "Defying Gravity" on the big screen, but if you sing along during "Wicked," you might be defying the rules – at least at AMC Theaters. |
"Silence is golden": Singing is on the list of no-nos for guests in the theater, according to an advisory being shown ahead of Friday's release of Part 1 of the expected blockbuster. So, bust out your best pink ensemble or witch attire – but resist the urge to make watching the film adaptation of the Broadway musical a sing-along, unless it's explicitly allowed. 💚 What to know about the rules. | Cynthia Erivo, left, as Elphaba and Ariana Grande is Glinda in "Wicked."

Attorney: Gaetz files stolen by hacker |
Files containing statements from witnesses who gave damaging testimony against former Rep. Matt Gaetz, President-elect Donald Trump's pick for attorney general, were hacked on Monday, attorneys say. The hacked files include an unredacted deposition of a woman who reportedly had sex with Gaetz when she was 17 years old. Several of the witnesses in the defamation case have also testified before the House Ethics Committee, which is expected to meet Wednesday to discuss whether to release its report on the allegations against Gaetz. 👉 What to know about the hacked files. |
A rural Italian village on a Mediterranean island is welcoming Americans looking to relocate abroad following the 2024 presidential election. |
What to know: Located in the countryside of Sardinia, the ancient town of Ollolai recently launched a "Live in Ollolai" initiative offering affordable homes – some as cheap as a cappuccino – for Americans who are worn out by global politics and "looking to embrace a more balanced lifestyle," according to the village's website. 👉 Learn more about the offer. |
Trump hush money sentencing still on hold |
Prosecutors advised a judge on Tuesday to delay President-elect Donald Trump's criminal sentencing in his New York hush money case following the election – but said they will still fight against efforts to get the case dismissed. |
How we got here: Earlier this month, Judge Juan Merchan put the Nov. 26 sentencing date and other deadlines in the case on hold at the joint request of prosecutors and Trump's legal defense team. In its Tuesday filing, Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg's office raised the question of whether any sentencing would now be appropriate before Trump's next presidency ends. 👉 We break down what it means. | | | | Advocacy groups are pressuring Biden to fulfill a campaign promise and prevent President-elect Trump from initiating another series of executions. | | | | Putin lowered the bar for a nuclear attack after the US lifted a ban on Ukraine using long-range missiles.
