In the 15 years since My Chemical Romance released its last album Danger Days: The True Lives of the Fabulous Killjoys, the band has remained relatively quiet following a split, and an eventual reunion. Some fans have expected new music from the group, but for the most part, very little has emerged for a long time – but followers of the emo rockers never stopped listening. Millions of people across the United States continue to buy and stream the band's full-lengths and singles, and that's clear as the group scores several new honors.
My Chemical Romance Earns 10 New RIAA Certifications
My Chemical Romance collects 10 new certifications from the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). The music industry organization recently announced that those 10 tracks have collectively moved another nine million equivalent units, factoring in both actual purchases and streams on platforms like Spotify, Apple Music, and others, adding to the group's already-impressive cumulative total.
Five Songs Earn Gold Certification
Half of My Chemical Romance's newly-certified tunes reach gold status for the first time. That group includes 'Disenchanted,' 'Sleep,' 'House of Wolves,' 'The Sharpest Lives,' and 'This Is How I Disappear,' which have all moved half a million units in America alone.
Two Go Platinum, One Reaches Double Platinum
Both 'Mama' and 'I Don't Love You' are now platinum-certified cuts, as they've moved one million equivalent units. Meanwhile, 'Famous Last Words' advances to double platinum status, which means it has shifted two million total units.
"Welcome to the Black Parade" Goes Seven-Times Platinum
'Welcome to the Black Parade' continues to lead as the band's highest-certified release. Since it was last named a five-times platinum smash in October 2021, the track — which appears on The Black Parade — has moved another two million copies, and now stands at the seven-times platinum level.
Just one million units behind it is 'Teenagers,' which also adds two million equivalent units to its total and becomes a six-times platinum smash. 'Teenagers' had previously been tied with 'Helena' as the band's second-highest certified track, after 'Helena' skyrocketed from gold to four-times platinum in April.

Emily Blunt Debuts a Platinum Blonde Bob on the Devil Wears Prada 2 Set

Are you wearing…the bleach blonde bob? Yes, Emily Blunt is. Filming is well underway for The Devil Wears Prada sequel, and with it, an avalanche of paparazzi photos that give a glimpse into some of the costume and styling choices for both established and new cast members. And while Anne Hathaway as Andy Sachs has retained her long, brunette hair, and Meryl Streep's Miranda Priestly sports her trademark ash blonde, severe super crop, it looks like Emily Blunt as Emily Charlton might go through some dramatic hair transformations. Just a few weeks ago, images from the set showed Blunt as Emily with some copper red hair, her character's signature shade. It marked the first time Blunt has returned to that shade following her breakout role in the original film, having experimented with more caramel blondes and shades of brunette over the years. The sharp-tongued assistant to Runway editor-in-chief is remembered as much for her acerbic words to Andy and not being the girl to go to Paris, as she is her chestnut red shade. It was a high fashion, editorial, almost villainous red. Blunt, who was 23 at the time, dyed her then-brunette hair for the the years, Blunt—who is a natural blonde—has experimented with plenty of brunette and blonde shades, but in recent times, she's kept to a lighter shade of brunette with warm blonde highlights toward the mid and lower lengths of her hair, giving her fine lengths some soft depth and movement. Color analysis defines Emily Blunt as a 'true summer,' with cool undertones—it means the actor can pool off cool, soft, and muted shades, like light browns, ashy and icy blonde.

Reese Witherspoon reflects on juggling work and motherhood: 'I was deliriously tired'

Reese Witherspoon has admitted balancing work and motherhood was "really hard sometimes". On Thursday, The Morning Show actress jumped on a social media trend in which content creators posted family selfies to offer insights into what it is like juggling parenthood and successful careers. "Someone asked me what raising three kids and building a career in Hollywood looked like..." she captioned a snap of herself and her three children on a carousel. Reese shares daughter Ava, 25, and son Deacon, 21, with ex-husband Ryan Phillippe, and 12-year-old son Tennessee with ex-husband Jim Toth. "It looked like spending a lot of time in trailers together," the 49-year-old wrote alongside a selfie of herself and her youngest son sitting in a trailer. Reese also posted a throwback photo showing herself with Ava and Deacon in the back seat of a car. "It looked like always being on the road together," she continued. Elsewhere, the Legally Blonde star posted a screenshot of a text exchange between herself and Ava in which her daughter informed her she had "butt-dialed an Instagram Live". "It looked like my kids constantly giving me career advice!" the producer exclaimed. But in the next slide, Reese conceded "it looked really hard sometimes". "I'd cry working 14 to 17 hours, sometimes all night long and still woke up early for carpool. I was deliriously tired," she remembered. "It looked like trying to say something positive about work when I got home at night. So my kids would know that my work was meaningful to me and could be fun!" Yet, to conclude the message, Reese indicated she wouldn't have changed her path. "In conclusion, even though it was challenging at times, having kids gave me perspective about what was important in life," the Oscar-winning actress added. "Nothing was better than getting to come home and hug them and hear about their day!"

'Game of Thrones' Actress Claps Back at Fan Who Claims She 'Forgot' She Had Children

'Game of Thrones' Actress Claps Back at Fan Who Claims She 'Forgot' She Had Children originally appeared on Parade. Actress , beloved for her role as Sansa Stark in Game of Thrones, silenced online trolls with a fiery clapback that has fans nodding their heads in approval. The drama unfolded after Turner uploaded a carousel of pictures on Instagram showcasing a fun night out with friends at an concert. The post spurred "concerned" comments about her parenting. The actress, who shares daughters Willa, 4, and Delphine, 2, with ex-husband , found her parenting under attack from keyboard critics. "Lmfao, I think she has forgotten that she has two kids," one troll wrote, while another chimed in with, "Who is taking care of this woman's children?' But if they expected silence, they were mistaken. Turner, known for her sharp wit and no-nonsense attitude, wasted no time in her response. "Ah I'm so sorry sometimes I forget some people can't think for themselves," she began, before schooling the critics on modern co-parenting. "So…Get this…There's this crazy thing called shared custody. Maybe, just maybe, they were with their dad that day." The comments section exploded with support, with fans jumping to Turner's defense and questioning the double standard she was facing. "How funny I find it in the comment section all these women so concerned about her children?!? How about you worry about your own children and mind your damn business geez......" one fan wrote, adding, "you know that a mom can also have a life too." Another wrote, "Yesss queen get these trolls 🧌 and your freedays."Another supporter asked, "Is it that incomprehensible to you that her children might have other trusted care givers asides from her? The dad perhaps? Is it that strange to you that a dad look after his own children every now and again?" Other fans offered another take, writing "would you say this to Joe?" and "please, get a life." The final word of praise came in the form of a new nickname: "Queen of The North and The Comebacks 👏👏👏." 🎬SIGN UP for Parade's Daily newsletter to get the latest pop culture news & celebrity interviews delivered right to your inbox🎬 'Game of Thrones' Actress Claps Back at Fan Who Claims She 'Forgot' She Had Children first appeared on Parade on Aug 11, 2025 This story was originally reported by Parade on Aug 11, 2025, where it first appeared.
