Calarogu, Shark Media, Hi and
Welcome to Entertainment, plus a short roundup

2
00:00:15.599 --> 00:00:22.280
of the top entertainment stories in today's
news. Princess Kate and her family have

3
00:00:22.320 --> 00:00:26.199
found a safe haven in their home, Amn Hall, where they plan to

4
00:00:26.399 --> 00:00:30.920
close off from the world and move
on as the princess undergoes cancer treatment.

5
00:00:31.359 --> 00:00:35.359
Those close to Prince Williams say the
royal couple now faces a situation where their

6
00:00:35.439 --> 00:00:39.600
children's mother's health is in the public
eye. According to a friend of the

7
00:00:39.640 --> 00:00:44.600
Prince, William has undoubtedly drawn from
his experiences of losing his mother Diana when

8
00:00:44.640 --> 00:00:48.280
he was just fifteen, putting him
in the protection mode he is currently in.

9
00:00:48.679 --> 00:00:53.399
The Waleses have withdrawn from public duties
after Kate announced she was undergoing preventive

10
00:00:53.520 --> 00:00:58.840
chemotherapy in an emotional video message.
The royal family will not attend the traditional

11
00:00:58.880 --> 00:01:03.039
Easter Sunday service, which King Charles
hopes to attend, instead focusing on supporting

12
00:01:03.039 --> 00:01:06.840
each other. A Royal aid told
The Times that William wants to protect his

13
00:01:06.879 --> 00:01:11.120
wife and children during this challenging time
as they retreat from the world at Abner

14
00:01:11.200 --> 00:01:15.159
Hall, a Georgian country house on
the Sandringham estate in Norfolk. They will

15
00:01:15.159 --> 00:01:19.959
prioritize their family over the royal institution
or monarchy as a whole. The aid

16
00:01:19.040 --> 00:01:23.040
emphasized that they are not a corporation
like Apple, but two human beings.

17
00:01:23.959 --> 00:01:27.040
Kate shared the news of a cancer
diagnosis when she, William and their children

18
00:01:27.040 --> 00:01:32.519
felt comfortable doing so, while the
future King and Queen feel the responsibility of

19
00:01:32.599 --> 00:01:36.840
their roles. A close friend hopes
that their time away will be beneficial due

20
00:01:36.840 --> 00:01:40.319
to the warm reaction and support from
the public. They said, the strength

21
00:01:40.359 --> 00:01:42.719
of the monarchy lies in the fact
that this is a family with real human

22
00:01:42.760 --> 00:01:48.239
beings at its heart. In her
statement, Kate touchingly revealed how she is

23
00:01:48.280 --> 00:01:52.200
reassuring her young children amid her battle
with cancer. She explained that she and

24
00:01:52.239 --> 00:01:56.599
William had told George, Charlotte and
Lloyd about the situation after the huge shock

25
00:01:56.640 --> 00:02:00.400
of her diagnosis. The princess said
she had told them she is doing well

26
00:02:00.400 --> 00:02:02.719
and getting stronger every day, and
that she was focusing on the things that

27
00:02:02.760 --> 00:02:07.480
will help me heal. She also
found comfort in having a husband by her

28
00:02:07.560 --> 00:02:10.639
side, and so they were doing
everything we can to process and manage this

29
00:02:10.800 --> 00:02:15.960
privately for the sake of our young
family. In Lighter News. A sparkling

30
00:02:16.080 --> 00:02:20.879
shirt worn by Britney Spears on The
X Factor is being auctioned by Golden Auctions

31
00:02:20.919 --> 00:02:25.039
as part of its pop Culture Elite
auction. The Sherry Bodell chainmail halter top

32
00:02:25.080 --> 00:02:30.360
worn by Spears on the November eighth, twenty twelve episode of the Fox Singing

33
00:02:30.360 --> 00:02:34.560
competition series, has a starting bit
of five hundred dollars but could potentially fetch

34
00:02:34.639 --> 00:02:39.039
five figures. Collector Carlo DeSantis had
the top authenticated and appraised for twenty thousand

35
00:02:39.039 --> 00:02:45.120
dollars to twenty five thousand. He
explained on the Netflix show King of Collectibles

36
00:02:45.199 --> 00:02:49.120
The Golden Touch that the item was
originally addressed, but Spears cut it into

37
00:02:49.159 --> 00:02:53.240
a top and walked out with the
genes and made it into a halter top

38
00:02:53.719 --> 00:02:57.400
to Sandus received the priceless shirt from
one of spears staffers while working as an

39
00:02:57.439 --> 00:03:00.360
extra producer. Spears, who was
not involved in the o, was a

40
00:03:00.439 --> 00:03:04.080
judge on season two of the US
edition of The X Factor, alongside Simon

41
00:03:04.120 --> 00:03:07.599
cow La Reid, and Demi Levato. Her contestant, Carlie Rose Sonclair,

42
00:03:07.680 --> 00:03:14.240
finished in second place. Bruce Springsteen
returned to the concert stage this week in

43
00:03:14.240 --> 00:03:17.280
Phoenix after postponing his world to a
last September due to peptic alco disease.

44
00:03:17.599 --> 00:03:23.039
In an interview with Sirius XM's EA
Street radio host Jim Rittolo, Springsteen shared

45
00:03:23.039 --> 00:03:27.520
his concerns about potentially losing his ability
to sing once I started singing. You

46
00:03:27.520 --> 00:03:30.479
know, you can rehearse singing,
but your voice isn't the same in rehearsal.

47
00:03:30.639 --> 00:03:34.000
You don't have that edge of adrenaline
that really pushes it into a better

48
00:03:34.039 --> 00:03:36.680
place. And the thing when I
had the stomach problem, one of those

49
00:03:36.719 --> 00:03:39.719
big problems was I couldn't sing,
he said. He continued, you sing

50
00:03:39.759 --> 00:03:43.840
with your diaphragm. My diaphram was
hurting so badly that when I went to

51
00:03:43.840 --> 00:03:46.120
make the effort to sing, it
was killing me. You know, So

52
00:03:46.159 --> 00:03:49.199
I literally couldn't sing at all.
You know. When that lasted for two

53
00:03:49.280 --> 00:03:53.719
or three months, along with just
a myriad of other painful problems, Springsteen

54
00:03:53.719 --> 00:03:57.199
admitted that he feared he might never
regain his ability to sing, saying,

55
00:03:57.680 --> 00:03:59.479
you know, I can't do it. And it took a while for the

56
00:03:59.479 --> 00:04:01.120
doctors sat say, oh no,
you're going to be okay. At first,

57
00:04:01.199 --> 00:04:04.360
nobody was quite saying that which made
me nervous, and at the end

58
00:04:04.360 --> 00:04:06.680
of the day, I found some
great doctors and they straightened me out,

59
00:04:06.719 --> 00:04:12.439
and I can't do anything but thank
them all. The current tour will conclude

60
00:04:12.479 --> 00:04:16.040
on November twenty second in Vancouver,
visiting seventeen countries across fifty two dates and

61
00:04:16.079 --> 00:04:20.160
including a September fifteenth headline date at
the Sea Here and Now Festival in Asbury

62
00:04:20.199 --> 00:04:27.279
Park, New Jersey. Sidney Sweeney
discussed in the increasing secrecies surrounding Euphuria season

63
00:04:27.279 --> 00:04:31.199
three during a conversation with Happy Sad
Confused podcast host Josh Horowitz at the ninety

64
00:04:31.199 --> 00:04:35.279
second Street Y in NYC. When
asked if she was excited to return to

65
00:04:35.519 --> 00:04:40.480
set for the upcoming season, Sweeney
joked, honestly, it's like as scary

66
00:04:40.519 --> 00:04:44.519
as talking about Marvel. I said
one thing and it went everywhere. Earlier

67
00:04:44.600 --> 00:04:47.120
this month, Sweeney had mentioned that
she would be going into Euphoria after completing

68
00:04:47.120 --> 00:04:51.959
her other projects, sparking speculation among
fans about the show's return date. Whilst

69
00:04:51.959 --> 00:04:57.439
she wouldn't confirm an exact date,
Sweeney coylely responded to the host's questions about

70
00:04:57.480 --> 00:05:01.279
seeing scripts for the upcoming season saying
maybe I don't know. The actress also

71
00:05:01.319 --> 00:05:05.480
expressed her love for her character Cassie, saying Cassie truly is a dream to

72
00:05:05.519 --> 00:05:09.560
play as an actor. I'm so
fortunate that I've had a character like her

73
00:05:09.600 --> 00:05:12.279
at such a young age, and
of course I want to keep living her

74
00:05:12.360 --> 00:05:15.560
crazy. I love it. Euphoria
season three has not become production yet,

75
00:05:15.560 --> 00:05:20.600
but is set to air on HBO
sometime in twenty twenty five. More Entertainment

76
00:05:20.639 --> 00:05:29.079
in Just a Moment. CNN is
facing an identity crisis after recent firings,

77
00:05:29.160 --> 00:05:32.480
low ratings, and the perceived lack
of prioritization for new talent. Former CNN

78
00:05:32.600 --> 00:05:38.439
CEO Chris lickt was spotted at the
San Vicente Bungalows in Los Angeles during Oscar's

79
00:05:38.480 --> 00:05:43.040
week, seemingly unaffected by his recent
ulster from the network. Inside us at

80
00:05:43.079 --> 00:05:46.279
CNN fuel that talent has become an
afterthought since Mark Thompson took the home in

81
00:05:46.279 --> 00:05:53.079
October following Lick's tumultuous thirteen month stint
as its leader. One source told us

82
00:05:53.160 --> 00:05:55.639
it doesn't seem to be a priority
and they don't have the money to find

83
00:05:55.639 --> 00:05:59.759
the next big star. The network's
situation is even more challenging for off camera

84
00:05:59.759 --> 00:06:02.480
star, with one source saying a
lot of staffers are losing their jobs.

85
00:06:02.800 --> 00:06:06.199
However, CNN appears to be relying
on its lesser known female talent such as

86
00:06:06.279 --> 00:06:11.079
Laura Coates, Abby Phillips, and
Caitlin Collins to boost primetime ratings. Following

87
00:06:11.120 --> 00:06:15.560
top performer Anderson Cooper, Thompson attempted
to reinforce the company's commitment to talent in

88
00:06:15.600 --> 00:06:18.959
a recent memo, citing Cooper's podcast
as a way forward for the network.

89
00:06:19.079 --> 00:06:24.439
He wrote, I passionately believe that
outstanding and higher profile talent will continue to

90
00:06:24.480 --> 00:06:28.240
be a central thread in the CNN
story, while recognizing that we have much

91
00:06:28.240 --> 00:06:31.800
more to do to find pathways for
our top names to multi platform audiences.

92
00:06:32.240 --> 00:06:36.240
Anderson Cooper's bring in podcast All There
Is shows the way. Despite this,

93
00:06:36.399 --> 00:06:40.759
many insiders believe that Thompson's focus is
not on talent, but rather on growing

94
00:06:40.800 --> 00:06:45.839
digital platforms. Sources suggest that the
company is concentrating more on building documentaries because

95
00:06:46.160 --> 00:06:49.240
it's a low risk way of getting
viewers. One source explained they have very

96
00:06:49.279 --> 00:06:53.879
talented producers when it comes to news. They're trying to go as straight down

97
00:06:53.879 --> 00:06:57.319
the road as possible, so they
gain traction from viewers tuning in to get

98
00:06:57.319 --> 00:07:00.439
an audience that aren't looking for Fox
or MSNBC. And they're also trying to

99
00:07:00.480 --> 00:07:06.319
supplement with documentaries and they have it. Please follow us on Spotify, Apple
