The New Day are 13-time tag-team champions. WrestleMania 41, Night 1 got off to a big start with two title changes, as Jey Uso forced now-former World Heavyweight Champion Gunther to tap to a rear-naked choke, and The War Raiders (Erik and Ivar) followed that up by dropping their World Tag Team titles to The New Day's heel duo Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods.

Kingston and Woods immediately gained momentum after some vintage heavy offense from Ivar. The New Day targeted Erik with their assault at the match's start, drawing several comments from WWE commentators about Erik's past neck injuries — which also alluded to Kingston and Woods' history with longtime former stablemate, Big E.
Woods embraced the heel role by paying homage to the likes of Ric Flair before some Hardy Boyz-esque double team moves.
Ivar became the main man for his team after the hot tag and got into control, setting up a potential War Machine finisher. Kingston then countered it from the outside, grabbing Ivar's feet on the ropes to save Woods, before the duo set up an elevated stomp finish for the win.

Kingston held Ivar's free foot, but it was more anticlimactic than dirty.
The New Day grabbed their titles then sprinted back up the ramp with no Big E in sight.

Miley Cyrus has post-‘Flowers' bloom on new album ‘Something Beautiful': review
Before her ninth studio album, 'Something Beautiful,' arrived on Friday, Miley Cyrus had finally got her 'Flowers.' Seventeen years after 'Meet Miley Cyrus' was coupled with the 'Hannah Montana 2' soundtrack to introduce her as a teen-pop princess distinct from her Disney Channel character, the 32-year-old singer had won respect along with her first two Grammys — including the prestigious Record of the Year — for her 2023 smash 'Flowers.' So 'Something Beautiful' is something of a victory party (in the U.S.A.) for Cyrus. 5 Cyrus makes a confident move into a new era where tapping the charts doesn't matter as much as leveling up the art. Getty Images for TikTok After even getting a co-sign from Beyoncé — their 'II Most Wanted' duet, a highlight of 'Cowboy Carter,' won Cyrus a third Grammy in February — she has nothing to prove anymore. And there's a sense of freedom in the ambition on 'Something Beautiful.' If it's not 'Endless Summer Vacation' — Cyrus' excellent 2023 album that gave us 'Flowers' — it's a confident move into a new era where tapping the charts doesn't matter as much as leveling up the art. She doesn't need to compete with the Sabrina Carpenters of the world. Taking a cue from Beyoncé — who navigated a similar transition with her 2013 self-titled surprise album — 'Something Beautiful' is a visual album that will be accompanied by a short film that will be released on June 6. And there is a cinematic scope to it with a dramatic spoken prelude and two instrumental interludes that are meant to bring a certain gravitas to it all. 5 Miley Cyrus performed her No 1 smash 'Flowers' at the 2024 Grammy Awards.

AFP via Getty Images But while we'll reserve final judgment until the film, the standalone album doesn't really need it. So just indulge Miss Miley — or use that skip button — and enjoy the rest of 'Something Beautiful.' Cyrus comes out swinging like a wrecking ball with the title track, which is one of the best things that she has ever recorded. Although it feels like it would have been an epic closer, it immediately sets a high bar for the album as she veers from D'Angelo-esque neo-soul to Pink Floyd-ish prog-rock — she has cited 'The Wall' as an inspiration for this album — in a way that you would've never imagined that Mickey Mouse would've never imagined. Indeed, there's a genre-blurring boldness to it that conjures up Prince, who Cyrus echoes when she sings 'watching the doves cry into the sunrise.' 5 Miley Cyrus performed at SNL 50: The Homecoming Concert' at Radio City Music Hall in February. Kevin Mazur/Peacock via Getty Images It gets the album off to a stellar start that continues with 'End of the World,' an apocalyptic, retro-'80s bop that is part Prince — think '1999' — and part Stevie Nicks, an influence who Cyrus previously channeled on 2020's 'Midnight Sky.' Although the single hasn't quite taken off like 'Flowers' yet, it deserves to be one of the bops of summer. Then there's 'More to Lose,' an aching breakup ballad that seems to hint at Cyrus' bruised heart from her split with ex-husband Liam Hemsworth: 'You're looking like a a movie star in a worn-out coat/So I throw away my mind/It happens all the time,' she sings, letting you feel every bit of her pain in her signature, singular timbre. Meanwhile, 'Easy Lover' is a breezy ditty that effortlessly straddles country and pop, blues and soul. Apparently Cyrus offered the song to Beyoncé for 'Cowboy Carter' before recording it herself. 'Tell 'em B,' she even ad-libs in a nod to Mrs. Carter that would have made perfect sense in a duet. 5 Miley Cyrus' 'Something Beautiful' album will have a companion film released on June 6. AP While we unfortunately don't get another duet with Beyoncé on 'Something Beautiful' — the two sounded way better together than they should have on 'II Most Wanted' — Cyrus gets help from Brittany Howard and Naomi Campbell(!), respectively, on 'Walk of Fame' and 'Every Girl You've Ever Loved,' two of the electro-dance tracks in the final stretch of the album. But here, they feel like a bit of a retreat back to the dance-pop of 'Endless Summer Vacation.' You kinda wish that Cyrus had had the courage of her convictions with which she started the album. It's as if she felt that she needed to hedge her bets. But 'Golden Burning Sun' and 'Pretend You're God' are dreamy reveries that set the blissed-out mood for summer romance. And when Cyrus ends the album with the psych-tinged ballad 'Give Me Love,' you'll be offering up just that.

Trump ally Nigel Farage makes dig at Prince Harry: ‘You sent us woke'
UK politician and President Trump ally Nigel Farage had an audience cracking up with a cheeky quip about sending Prince Harry to the US. The outspoken anti-immigration campaigner couldn't contain his laughter after making a playful jab at the Duke of Sussex during an interview Thursday at the Bitcoin Conference in Las Vegas, Nev. 'In my country, we tend to be a little bit behind,' said the leader of the right-wing Reform UK party. 'America has all the new ideas, they take a few years to cross the pond.' Advertisement 5 UK politician and Trump ally Nigel Farage had the audience in stitches after delivering a cheeky quip about sending Prince Harry to the US during his speech. Getty Images 'You send us many good things, and what you're doing in this space right now, this administration is good,' Farage, 61, said. 'You also send us bad things, because you sent us woke.' The British politician then turned to the audience, pointing his index finger in the air. Advertisement 'But you know what, we've got you back, because we sent you Prince Harry in return, alright,' he quipped. Harry, of course, famously quit royal life in 2020 and hightailed it across the pond with his wife, Meghan Markle. 5 'We've got you back, because we sent you Prince Harry in return, alright,' Farage quipped. Getty Images The Sussexes have since set up camp in Montecito, Calif., where they reside with their two children: Prince Archie, 6, and Princess Lilibet, 3. Advertisement Despite planting firm roots in the Golden State, the 'Spare' author and his Sussex counterpart have made virtually no effort in gelling with their Montecito community, one local resident claimed this week. Instead, locals say that Harry and the 'Suits' alum, 43, have remained 'practically invisible' to their neighbors ever since they snapped up their $14 million property — which has since doubled in value. 5 The Invictus Games founder, 40, quit royal life with his wife, Meghan Markle, in 2020 and hightailed it across the pond shortly after. Archewell Foundation via Getty Images Despite that, Harry had previously gushed over his new life in sunny California, telling Andrew Ross Sorkin at The New York Times DealBook Online Summit that he 'very much' enjoys living in Montecito. Advertisement 'I very much enjoy bringing my kids up here. It's a part of my life that I never thought I was going to live.I feel as though it's the life that my mom wanted for me,' he said in Dec. 2024. 'To be able to do the things I'm able to do with my kids that I undoubtedly wouldn't be able to do in the UK — it's huge. That is a fantastic opportunity and I'm hugely grateful for that.' 5 The Sussexes have since set up camp in Montecito, Calif., where they reside with their two children: Prince Archie, 6, and Princess Lilibet, 3. Getty Images for the Invictus Games Foundation Thursday's quip isn't the first time Farage had spoken out about the Sussex camp. President Trump's close ally launched a scathing attack on Harry in recent weeks — saying his comments about his cancer-stricken, estranged father King Charles' ailing health were 'inappropriate' and 'unnecessary.' 'It's good to see the king here. I understand the treatment he is undergoing is pretty intense,' Farage told GB News earlier this month. 'He's putting a brave face on it. It was why the comments from his youngest son were so inappropriate.' 'Of all the things Harry said — that's what I found most upsetting,' Farage said of Harry's bombshell BBC News interview. Advertisement 'There's no conversation the king and Harry can have that won't end up on Netflix — there's no trust,' he added. 'As I understand, the king is undergoing regular treatment. It's tough.' In April 2021, Farage yanked up his welcome mat in a tweet slamming the Sussexes for their terse statement on the death of Prince Philip at age 99. 5 Harry had previously gushed over his new life in sunny California, saying that he 'very much' enjoys bringing his kids up in Montecito. Advertisement 'For a couple that do public emotion as a career, this third person and one sentence statement shows their contempt for this great man and the monarchy,' Farage said at the time. 'The British public will not welcome Harry and Meghan back, even for the funeral.'

Timothee Chalamet brings Kylie Jenner back to MSG for Knicks' must-win game
Timothée Chalamet is back at Madison Square Garden, and so is equally famous girlfriend. The Hollywood A-lister and Knicks superfan arrived with Kylie Jenner as the Knicks try to keep their season alive, trailing 3-1 to the Pacers in the best-of-seven series. Advertisement The pair entered the arena floor hand in hand as they walked to their seats, while Jenner donned black pants and an orange jacket. Chalamet was wearing dark colored jeans with blue and orange insignias on them, along with a blue and orange jacket for Thursday's must-win Game 5. He showed off his outfit in a series of snapshots on his Instagram Story. The couple sat alongside fellow actor and Knicks diehard Ben Stiller — and actor Miles Teller and his wife Keleigh Teller. Timothee Chalamet and Kylie Jenner arrive at MSG for Game 5 of the Eastern Conference finals on May 29, 2025. NY Post Sports/X The actor has been a mainstay throughout the Knicks' playoff run this season, sitting courtside at the Garden and on the road — having taken the trip to Indiana for Games 3 and 4.
