Mel B welcomed her second child this week, with the healthy birth of a baby girl in Los Angeles. The as-yet-unnamed infant “is completely healthy with a good head of hair,” Brown’s spokesperson commented. “No name has been decided on as yet, and she is purely known as Baby Brown.” The former Spice Girl, who has chosen to focus on acting in recent years after her solo career flopped, faces a paternity battle with her former boyfriend, Hollywood star Eddie Murphy, after he very publicly declared the child might not be his. “Now you’re being presumptuous because we’re not together… Read more »

From Timothée Chalamet starring in A Complete Unknown as Bob Dylan to Rami Malek’s portrayal of Queen‘s Freddie Mercury in Bohemian Rhapsody, there are many rock star movies you need to add to your watchlist. P.S. If you need a goofy “biopic,” then Weird: The Al Yankovic Story starring Daniel Radcliffe is the flick for you.

When you think about your favorite childhood films, it is likely that a Disney Princess or two come to mind.
