"I lost about 80 lbs. from season three — I was about 270 [then], and when we shot [season four] I was around 190," he told British GQ in an interview at the time.
"I don't think I'll ever do that again," Harbour admitted. "I have this Santa Claus movie [Violent Night] coming out for Universal in December and I gained [it all back]. But now, yeah, never again. The prosthetics are too good."

Harbour has played Jim Hopper on the hit sci-fi show since it premiered in July 2016. With the fifth and final season set to drop some time in season 2025, Harbour has promised an emotional roller-coaster for fans.
'The end of this episode when we were reading it—just us reading it—about halfway through, people started crying,' Harbour recalled of the series finale in an interview with People. 'Then about the last 20 minutes, it was just uncontrollably crying, waves of different people. Noah Schnapp being my favorite.'
He added, 'It's 10 years later, and we examine that idea, and it's so well done and so beautiful. It's such a great episode, and it's such a great season. You guys will love it.'

Legendary Female Rocker Asked ‘Are You a Witch' by Rising Star
When Heart played the Arena in Los Angeles back in March, singer invited rising current stars Chappell Roan and Lucy Dacus backstage for a chat following the show. The conversation was released on May 6 on the Rock and Roll Hall of Famer's podcast, After Dinner Thinks, and you'll find that none of the artists pulled any punches. 🎬 SIGN UP for Parade's Daily newsletter to get the latest pop culture news & celebrity interviews delivered right to your inbox 🎬 In fact, at one-point in the one-hour conversation Dacus—a solo artist and a member of the indie supergroup Boygenius with Julien Baker and Phoebe Bridgers—bluntly asked the 'Magic Man' singer, 'Are you a witch?' 'I don't think so,' Wilson replied, 'any more than anybody else.' Dacus, realizing she may have made a misstep, suggested that the question should be cut from the recording, but Wilson was OK with it and continued to address the question. 'Well, I never claimed to be one or felt I was one,' Wilson added. 'If you have power over people without trying, I think that's a form of witchery or what you want to call it.' 'You definitely do,' Dacus responded. 'I saw it tonight.' It turns out that Dacus's question isn't completely random. A quick Internet search reveals that others have claimed—or joked—that Wilson is a witch in the past. A 2014 post on the Recovery from Mormonism (RfM) discussion forum by someone claiming to be Tal Bachman has the heading 'Ann Wilson of Heart is a witch.' Bachman is known for the 1999 hit 'She's So High' and is currently touring with his father's classic rock band, Bachman Turner Overdrive. He is a former member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Parade reached out to his reps to confirm the authenticity of the post. 'I saw the rock band Heart the other night. Ann Wilson, the lead singer, is SIXTY FIVE YEARS OLD. And she sings better than she ever has. She would completely destroy her idol, Robert Plant (from Led Zeppelin), in a vocal competition. And her sister Nancy was also amazing, both as a vocalist and guitarist. Nancy is sixty,' he wrote.'What is the explanation for the total rock awesomeness of the Wilson sisters? Following Mormon logic, it can only be something supernatural. And since Ann and Nancy Wilson are not Mormons, or even Christians, that only leaves one possibility: Satan.' 'The Wilson sisters have clearly made some sort of pact with Satan, whereby they keep singing and playing better with age. There is no other explanation. Thank you Mormonism, for teaching me how to think,' he added before signing off with 'Praising the witches.'

Jason Aldean Recording New Song With Former Duet Partner
Jason Aldean Recording New Song With Former Duet Partner originally appeared on Parade. Country superstar Jason Aldean was on Taste of Country's show on Friday, May 30, where he talked about his latest album, which he has been working on for the past six to eight months. He said that there will be at least two duets on the album, and while he played coy as to the exact duet partners, one thing he said has us screaming about it potentially being a reunion with or . Aldean and Clarkson made a splash in 2010 with "Don't You Wanna Stay," which was certified 2x Platinum by the RIAA and hit No. 1 on the U.S. Country Chart and U.S. Hot Country Chart, plus it got to No. 31 on the Billboard Hot 100. Then a decade later, Aldean and Underwood released "If I Didn't Love You," which hit No. 1 on the U.S. Country Chart, No. 2 on the U.S. Hot Country Chart, No. 15 on the Billboard Hot 100 and was certified 1x Platinum by the naturally, when he says he's teaming up with a former duet partner for another song, we are very excited that it could be either American Idol winner. Aldean told Taste of Country that he's going to have at least two and possibly more duets on his new album and when pressed for who the duets are with, he wouldn't say, but when asked if it's someone he has done a duet with before, he confirmed that one of them is. "Uhhh, one is and the other is not. The other's not. Gotta save a little bit [of mystery]," teased Aldean. 🎬 SIGN UP for Parade's Daily newsletter to get the latest pop culture news & celebrity interviews delivered right to your inbox 🎬 Now, if it's not Clarkson or Underwood, it could be a lot of people because Aldean has sung with a lot of other artists over the years, including Eric Church, Luke Bryan, Tyler Farr, Miranda Lambert, Ludacris, Darius Rucker, Charles Kelley, Brantley Gilbert and Florida Georgia Line. So there are a lot of possibilities. But we're crossing our fingers for Clarkson because their duet was straight fire. As to the rest of the album, Aldean had this to say, "We've been in the studio a lot, man. Probably the last eight months or so, six or eight months, we've been in the studio a lot. Basically, pretty much done with the album, at least my part, still gotta mix and master and all those kind of things. It's gonna be a cool project. Lotta songs. Couple duets in there too, so it's gonna be pretty cool."He went on to say that a couple of the songs are duets but they haven't actually found the duet partner yet, saying, "[All the duets are] gonna make it [on the album], there's a couple songs that I know are gonna be duets and then there's a couple, one maybe two, that we still kind of haven't found our partner for that yet, but it's gonna go in that lane too, so."
