Elon Musk brands Bono a 'liar' and an 'idiot' over USAID cuts criticism
First, Donald Trump lashed out at one music icon... Now, Elon Musk is following suit and making his own rock star enemy. Bono was on the Joe Rogan podcast on Friday (30 May) to talk about the release of his documentary Bono: Stories Of Surrender. During the three-hour conversation, the U2 frontman took the opportunity to critise the Trump administration and singled out Elon Musk and his Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), which oversaw the dismantling of the United States Agency for International Development (USAID). Bono, who has been a campaigner for humanitarian aid for decades, criticised the cuts to international aid and cited a Boston University study that estimated that the cuts will cause more than 300,000 deaths around the world. 'There's food rotting in boats, in warehouses – 50,000 tons of it,' Bono said. 'The people who knew the codes, who were responsible for distributing that aid, were fired. That's not America, is it?' Unsurprisingly, considering Rogan voted for Trump, his audience were quick to react – and not in a happy way. One wrote: 'That guy's about as evil as they come Joe', while others stated they would be skipping the episode altogether and that it would be 'the first time I look forward to commercials'. Then came Elon Musk's reaction, who took to X to say brand the singer 'such a liar/idiot', before adding that 'zero people have died' as a result of the USAID cuts. In a later exchange, he said: 'South Park lampooned Bono as the biggest shit in the world. They were right.' Musk stepped down from his wildly unpopular role at DOGE last week after serving the maximum 130-day term as a special government employee without Senate confirmation. During his time at DOGE, hundreds of thousands of people participated in the "Hands Off" protests across all 50 states of the US to express their opposition to the policies of the Trump administration and cuts made by Musk's DOGE. "Hands Off" event organizers said: "They're taking everything they can get their hands on — our healthcare, our data, our jobs, our services — and daring the world to stop them. This is a crisis, and the time to act is now." Check out some of the best signs seen during these nation-wide protests. Bono: Stories Of Surrender is a hybrid of concert movie and visual memoir, featuring spoken word passages from the singer's 2022 autobiography, 'Surrender.' It is streaming on Apple TV+ now.

When is 'Karate Kid: Legends' coming to streaming? Here's our best guess
It's been decades since 'The Karate Kid' crane-kicked its way into pop culture history, and now the beloved franchise is back with a brand-new chapter. 'Karate Kid: Legends' hit theaters on May 30, raking in $21 million at the domestic box office during its opening weekend. While it didn't manage to top 'Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning' or Disney's 'Lilo & Stitch' live-action remake, it still packed enough punch to get fans talking. Directed by Jonathan Entwistle, 'Legends' brings together martial arts icons Jackie Chan and Ralph Macchio alongside a new generation hero — Li Fong, played by the talented Ben Wang. The result is a fast-paced, feel-good action-comedy that doesn't aim for perfection, but hits its stride with charm. Sure, it could've used more time with its legendary masters and a little breathing room between brawls, but thanks to Wang's charismatic lead performance, 'Karate Kid: Legends' earns its spot in the franchise. So, when can you catch all the action from the comfort of your own home? Here's our best guess at when 'Karate Kid: Legends' could be available to stream. Sony hasn't confirmed when 'Karate Kid: Legends' will be available to stream, but we can make an educated guess based on the studio's recent 2025 release schedule. So far this year, Sony has followed a fairly consistent PVOD pattern of about 4 to 5 weeks after a movie's theatrical debut. Get instant access to breaking news, the hottest reviews, great deals and helpful tips. For example, 'Until Dawn' hit theaters on April 25 and arrived on PVOD just under a month later, on May 23. 'Heart Eyes' had a similar turnaround, going from theaters on February 7 to PVOD on March 4 (a 26-day window). 'Paddington in Peru' took slightly longer, premiering February 14 and hitting digital platforms by April 1 (a gap of about six and a half weeks). Given that 'Karate Kid: Legends' was released on May 30, a similar release window could point to a potential PVOD debut around Tuesday, July 8, 2025. However, it's important to note that these dates are purely speculative and could change based on how well the movie performs in the coming weeks. Following its PVOD release, 'Karate Kid: Legends' is expected to make its streaming debut on Netflix, thanks to Sony's ongoing Pay 1 deal with the platform. Historically, Sony titles appear on Netflix around 3 to 4 months after their theatrical release, specifically on a Thursday. Based on that trend, I predict 'Karate Kid: Legends' to arrive on Netflix sometime between late August and early September 2025. A rough estimate would be around Thursday, September 4, 2025, keeping in line with Sony's typical release pattern. Again, this date could change depending on the success of this standalone sequel and whether Sony wants to push for an earlier streaming debut. So, if you're waiting to stream the latest karate showdown from the comfort of your home, late summer to early fall is your best bet.

Squid Game star ‘nervous' for final season as trailer drops for hit series
Squid Game lead Lee Jung Jae said he was 'nervous' about the forthcoming season as Netflix dropped the final trailer of the hit series. In the trailer for the third and final season, Lee's Gi Hun, or Player 456, is still searching for answers as the games continue after his failed rebellion at the end of the second season which leads to the death of his friend Jung Bae, played by Lee Seo Hwan, at the hands of Lee Byung Hun's The Front Man. 'We are going to be releasing quite soon and I am very nervous. I know that a lot of you out there are curious about what's going to happen in season three, but all of us are more curious about how much you're going to enjoy it. So, I can't wait, I'm very nervous,' Lee told The Hollywood Reporter at Netflix's Tudum event on Saturday. Fans reacted with excitement and trepidation as they scoured the trailer for clues about whether their favourite characters would survive the games. NAMGYU FINALIST?? IM GOING TO THROW UP — namgyuHUGGER#1 (@th2ngyuri) June 1, 2025 Protect her😭😭😭 — Shrooq (@shrooq63_13) June 1, 2025 Give my babies myunggi and junhee their happy ending that's all I'm asking for — 𝑳𝒆𝒂 || STREAM TILT (@reveswan_) June 1, 2025 my honest reaction after watching the trailer for Squid Game 3: — 𝐇𝐈𝐍𝐀(𝐣𝐮𝐧 𝐡𝐞𝐞'𝐬 𝐰𝐢𝐟𝐞) (@ANN_R1ZUN4) June 2, 2025 The second season of Squid Game was watched a record-breaking 68 million times in the first four days after its launch on Netflix on Boxing Day. Its viewership in premiere week beat that of Jenna Ortega thriller Wednesday, which had raked up 50.1 million views on release in 2022. Squid Games follows hundreds of cash-strapped people as they compete in deadly games for a life-changing sum of money, and their lives. 'Can Squid Game capture lightning in a bottle for a second time? Well, yes and no. It is impossible to replicate the shock of that first outing, and Hwang Dong Hyuk does well not to try. Instead, his script finds the horror in witnessing the brutality again, through the eyes of Lee Jung Jae who returns in his Emmy-winning lead role,' Annabel Nugent noted in a four-star review of the second season for The Independent. 'As reluctant hero Seong Gi Hun, he's easy to root for – all weary-eyed empathy and straight-arrow justice.' The third season is set to release on 27 June.
