Macaulay Culkin and Brenda Song are officially major Backstreet Boys fans
Culkin posted a photo of him and his partner Song along with the Backstreet CNN Newsource Backstreet's back alright, and Macaulay Culkin and Brenda Song are thrilled about it. Culkin posted a joyous photo on Instagram of him and his longterm partner Song along with the Backstreet Boys at what appeared to be backstage at the boy band's Las Vegas 'Into the Millennium' residency at the Sphere earlier this week. The actor had some fun with the caption, starting it off with 'Mack Street's Back, ALRIGHT!!!' Culkin – who first shot to fame in 1990's 'Home Alone' – then asked his followers if they 'remember the '90s?,' going on to say how he and Song went to the concert where 'Brenda lost her sh*t. (She literally cried).' The Backstreet Boys, of course, first shot to global fame in the mid-'90s with their self-titled debut album. Culkin admitted that he 'was mildly skeptical about the show, but boy howdy did they tear the place down.' 'I was so very impressed. Five minutes into pilates I'm toast,' he wrote. 'I'm 45 but these men, who are my age, GO at it HARD for 90 minutes.' He then detailed how the boy band used everything at hand to put on the best possible show, praising them that 'they got it more than ever.' 'Even if you're not a fan you have to see this; it'll win you over… in the Brenda kind of way,' Culkin wrote before jokingly thanking them for making Song emotional. The pair have been a couple since 2017, got engaged in 2022 and are the parents of two young sons. The Backstreet Boys responded to Culkin's post via their Instagram stories writing, 'So glad you both enjoyed the show! We saw @brendasong tearin it up in the suite!! You go girl!' Safe to say Culkin won't be left 'Home Alone' for the next Backstreet Boys concert. By Lisa Respers France, CNN

Emmys 2025: The 18 Biggest Snubs
Nominations for the 77th Primetime Emmy Awards were announced on Tuesday, once again leaving us with a lot to process. Are we happy for the shows and stars who heard their names read aloud? Of course we are, it's probably a wonderful feeling. But are we also disappointed that a handful of deserving contenders, whose names we expected (or in some cases just really hoped) to hear, were excluded from this year's list of nominees? Absolutely. We contain multitudes.

10 Biggest Emmy snubs of 2025: Squid Game, Selena Gomez, The Handmaid's Tale and more
The 2025 Emmy nominations are out, and with them comes a long list of stars and shows who've been officially benched this year. While Severance, The White Lotus, The Studio, and Hacks lead the pack, the list, announced by Harvey Guillén (What We Do in the Shadows) and Brenda Song (Running Point), also came with some serious shocks. Fan-favourites were nowhere to be found, including Netflix's Korean juggernaut Squid Game and Elisabeth Moss for The Handmaid's Tale, among others. Also read: Emmy Awards nominations 2025: Severance leads Emmy race with 27 nominations, The Studio gets 23 nods as AppleTV+ dominates The South Korean thriller starring Lee Jung Jae and Lee Byung Hun, which aired the franchise's finale this year, was among the most looked-forward sequels given the first season walked away with six trophies in 2022. But its second season, which dropped in December 2024, didn't score a single nomination. Fan-favourite character Thanos (played by T.O.P), who became a breakout hit, failed to clinch a nod. For a show that dominated the cultural conversation, this shutout was a disappointment. Hulu's hit Only Murders in the Building has always been an Emmy darling, with its lead stars rarely missing from the nominations. However, this time only Short was nominated, while both Martin and Gomez were left out. While HBO hit The White Lotus took several nods for the night, with almost everyone getting a nomination, Patrick Schwarzenegger's snub alone was the biggest shocker. Critics have praised his character, calling him the emotional heart of the season. Emmy voters missed that memo. Also read: Justin Bieber's Swag becomes one of his worst-rated albums; it's already crashing on streaming charts Andor, the story of Rebel spy Cassian, did earn an Emmy nomination, a well-deserved Best Drama Series, but contrary to expectations, the lead star, Diego Luna, got nothing. Aside from him, co-stars Stellan Skarsgård and Genevieve O'Reilly were also left out despite giving one of their best performances to date. Critics have repeatedly praised Luna's brilliant acting chops in the Star Wars spin-off, but the Emmys didn't bite. Safe to say, Natasha Lyonne carried Poker Face on her back for two seasons. Yet despite being nominated last year, she didn't make the cut this time. The show did score two nominations, one of which is for Cynthia Erivo's multi-character guest role. But still, fans believe Lyonne's detective character is the show's entire spine. The Handmaid's Tale is one of the Emmy panel's favourites, having returned for nominations almost every year. However, for its final season, the show only picked up one nomination, and that too for Cherry Jones in a guest role. Moss, who had already earned an Emmy for the franchise as the lead, was left out completely. Even more surprising, she didn't land a directing nod either, despite strong behind-the-camera work this season. After a spectacular Emmy run in the past, clinching 10 nominations across Seasons 1 and 2, including multiple nods for Lynskey, Yellowjackets got none this year. Even with a darker, more complex third season, the survival thriller received zero nominations. Somebody Somewhere, with its quiet yet superlative comedy, became a fan favourite on HBO and ended its three-season run to critical praise. Jeff Hiller got a nomination, and the show was solely recognised for its script. But Bridget Everett, the emotional anchor and the lead of the series, was snubbed. Given how much of the show's magic came from her grounded, quiet performance, this one's tough to ignore. There was plenty of buzz around Knightley's performance in Netflix's popular spy series, Black Doves. Speculations were rife that she would surely lead the nominations this year. But in a year where Slow Horses ate up all the spy-love, Black Doves was completely shut out, no acting, no writing, nothing. Ted is an Emmy regular but didn't land a single nod this year. His show, A Man on the Inside, also went unnoticed across the board. For someone who's been an awards fixture since Cheers, the silent treatment is disappointing. Some honourable mentions
