Foo Fighters Return To Multiple Charts Thanks To An Exciting New Single
The Foo Fighters may or may not be entering a brand new era with 'Today's Song.' The tune appeared seemingly out of nowhere recently, and as it launches across a variety of Billboard charts, it's still unclear if the group is prepping the world for another full-length project, or if this track is, at least for now, a standalone release to be enjoyed by fans everywhere.
The quick success of 'Today's Song' helps bring the band's Greatest Hits compilation back to the forefront, and back to the charts in the United States. The popularity of the just-dropped single seems to have improved the group's entire catalog, with many listeners likely focusing their streaming activity on the compilation.
Foo Fighters Return with Greatest Hits
Greatest Hits by the Foo Fighters appears on four Billboard tallies in America this week, reentering each and every one of them. The collection sits highest on the Top Hard Rock Albums chart, landing at No. 12. On the Top Alternative Albums list, Greatest Hits also returns, settling in at No. 23. The project just misses the crucial top 40 on the Top Rock & Alternative Albums roster, where it lands at No. 42.
The Foo Fighters also reappear on the Billboard 200, the ranking of the most popular albums of any kind in the U.S. On that tally, Greatest Hits breaks back in at No. 178.
Hundreds of Weeks on the Charts
Luminate states that during the past tracking period in America, the Foo Fighters' compilation moved another 9,100 equivalent units. Almost all of those came from streaming activity, as the title sold only 350 copies.
While Greatest Hits had recently disappeared from all four of the charts it returns to this frame, the full-length isn't new to any of them. The compilation has spent hundreds of weeks on each roster – the least of which stands at 284 weeks on the Billboard 200. The same project is nearing 450 weeks on the list of the most consumed hard rock collections in the country.
'Today's Song' Launches at No. 1
'Today's Song' is a quick win for the band on the Billboard charts where it debuts. The Foo Fighters earn an eighth career No. 1 on the Hard Rock Digital Song Sales tally as the tune opens in first place. The outfit's latest cut also starts inside the top 10 on the Rock & Alternative Airplay, Rock Digital Song Sales, and Alternative Digital Song Sales charts.

San Diego Comic-Con attendee taken away in ambulance after suffering medical emergency
A convention staff member told EW that someone suffered an emergency near the escalators at the entrance to the San Diego Convention Center. A 2025 Comic-Con attendee was taken away in an ambulance after suffering a medical emergency inside the San Diego Convention Center on Saturday. An Entertainment Weekly reporter at the scene was informed by a convention staff member that 'someone' suffered an emergency near the escalators at the convention entrance, but would not disclose any additional information about what occurred or their condition. The individual was subsequently taken away on a stretcher and loaded into the ambulance, which left the scene just after noon PT. Video footage from the event taken by EW shows a growing crowd surrounding the convention center entrance, with the ambulance parked out front. As a result, entrance to the convention center was briefly paused on Saturday in order to allow emergency services to pull up to the front of the building and aid the individual. Attendees were allowed to enter the convention shortly after the ambulance departed. The incident comes just one day after a confusing fire alarm announcement rang out near Hall H and Ballroom 20, despite no alarm actually being heard. Security notified attendees during a Dexter: Resurrection panel to 'remain calm' and await further instructions. "I'm not calm," moderator Jamie Chung said, to which star Michael C. Hall replied, "Thank God Dexter's with us." Outside of general confusion from the crowd — and a brief delay from one Hall H panel to the next — the fire alarm did not cause any major disruption on Friday. Check out more of .

Matthew Lawrence Proposed Using AI To Bring Back Robin Williams
AI is used for lots of purposes these days — and if he could, Matthew Lawrence would "love" to use it to resurrect his Mrs. Doubtfire co-star Robin Williams. Related: Matthew made the revelation in a recent interview with Entertainment Weekly. He said he thinks Robin's "voice is just so iconic" and that using AI could provide a way to "do something really special" with it. He said, "I would love — now, obviously, with the respect and with the okay from his family — but I would love to do something really special with his voice because I know for a generation, that voice is just so iconic." He insisted he's not the only one who thinks so, either. "It's in everybody's head," he shared. "And it would be so cool." Related: Apparently, Matthew got the idea from one of Robin's old commercials before the actor's 2014 death, which saw him speaking in a "computerized voiceover." "And it always stuck with me," Matthew shared. "And then, during his passing, with the AI coming out, I'm like, 'Man, he's gotta be the voice of A.I. He's gotta be the voice in something.' So yeah, I would love to do that." Related: "Fuck no," one reader tweeted in response. "This feels incredibly disrespectful." "I doubt his family wants that," another said. "And no AI can replicate Robin Williams." "Absolutely not," someone else agreed. Related: Other people pointed out that it couldn't happen anyway — at least not for a while, as Robin reportedly has a trust that strictly prohibits using his voice or likeness for 25 years. "That doesn't honor him," a fourth person wrote. "that disrespects him and his memory especially when he was against that." Another person took a difference stance, saying that they would be "okay with this if Robin's family is." I love Robin Williams, too, but I personally think we should leave people alone, especially if that's what they wanted! Tell me what you think in the comments.

Man Is Harassed in High School for Being Gay. 20 Years Later, He Has a Shocking Interaction with His Bully (Exclusive)
Two decades after being bullied for being gay, he got a message that brought the past full circle and offered something close to healing Two decades after graduating from high school, Misha Brown received an unexpected message from someone he never thought he'd hear from again: his former bully. The message wasn't just an apology — it was a deeply personal admission. The man's 15-year-old son had just come out as gay, prompting the father to reflect on how he once treated others. For the 37-year-old influencer, who came out around the same age as his bully's son, the apology brought a wave of emotion. 'Honestly, when I first saw the message come through, I didn't know what to expect,' Brown tells PEOPLE exclusively. 'I couldn't think of a single reason as to why he'd reach out. But there it was, and I opened it.' In the message, the man admitted that his first thought after learning his son was gay was hoping the teen would be met with more kindness than he had shown Brown in the past. Growing up in a tiny town in Western New York, Brown was a bright and expressive boy who stood out from his peers. Obsessed with singing Whitney Houston songs and playing Polly Pockets, he was often bullied — an experience that tainted his adolescent life. 'Being bullied as a child truly shaped the entire experience of growing up. I overanalyzed every part of myself. How was I standing? Was I too loud? Was I safe in my surroundings?' Brown recalls. 'It made me perform, in a way, because the one space I excelled in was as a performer. Acceptance became the only currency I craved, and it made me put a lot of pressure on myself.' Over the years, Brown has built a multi-hyphenate career across theatre, social media, and podcasting. He is the host of the hit Wondery podcast, The Big Flop, and leverages a loyal following of nearly 4 million across platforms.

'As my platform has grown, I saw the impact that it can have. I want to be a bridge and try my best to bring people together,' Brown says. 'A lot of people have experienced bullying, feeling like they have been left behind, or don't love themselves, and I use my platform to let them know that they are not broken or alone.' Parents of queer youth often tell Brown that they share his content with their kids to show them they're strong, worthy, and deserving of a full, authentic life. His debut book, Be Your Own Bestie, out February 2026, explores Brown's journey and how he came to embrace every part of himself. While this isn't the first time someone has reached out to apologize or reconnect, this message – from this particular bully – hit differently. 'I've seen a lot of comments on my video where people don't think that I should accept his apology. That having gayness 'happen' to him is not a good enough penance. But that's not who I am. I cried when I read what he wrote to me,' Brown admits. 'I cried for me, the little boy who desperately cried in his mom's arms, begging to not be gay. I cried for his son, who gets to have a dad like mine, who loves their kid no matter what. And I cried because I am a chronically optimistic person (so annoying) and this is proof that there is goodness in people, even if they don't always show it.' In response, Brown told his former classmate that the apology was completely unexpected, but extremely appreciated. He acknowledged the courage it takes to admit past wrongs and let him know that the love he showed for his son helped heal some of the pain Brown had been carrying for years. 'I would say that makes up for something, and I told him as much, but, wow. What a cool feeling to get that moment. I guess people can change,' Brown said in his video, which has since amassed over 2.4 million views on TikTok. Through years of healing and introspection, Brown has learned to embrace who he is and block out the negativity. Sharing that growth publicly has opened doors he never expected — and, in its own way, led him to this powerful moment. 'I want for people to experience hope from this story…so many people have struggled through similar experiences, and maybe they can find a little healing of their own through this apology from my bully,' Brown tells PEOPLE. 'We can't change other people or will them to give us retribution, but we can control how we show up for ourselves. I'm grateful that I got this moment, but I'm more lucky that I am in a place to accept it.' Read the original article on People
