Beloved 'Rocky Horror' Star, 79, Seen During Extremely Rare Appearance
Rocky Horror actor Tim Curry was recently seen during a rare outing in Los Angeles. In the photos obtained by Daily Mail, the beloved 79-year-old British actor was spotted being pushed in a wheelchair as he left Gelson's supermarket after picking up some groceries. . The actor has largely kept out of the spotlight following a life-changing stroke in his home in 2012 that affected his speech and left him partially paralyzed on one side, requiring the use of a wheelchair. His illustrious career, dating back to the 1970s, has been marked by memorable performances such as the aforementioned The Rocky Picture Show, which shot him to fame, along with Clue, Home Alone 2, the film adaptation of Annie, Pennywise in the miniseries It, Muppet Treasure Island, Charlie's Angels, Scary Movie 2 and more. In 2015, nearly three years after his health scare, the legendary stage and screen actor was honored with a Lifetime Achievement Award at the 19th annual Actors Fund Tony Awards Viewing Party in Los Angeles. At the time, he told Los Angeles Magazine that the honor "sort of solidifies the kind of work the American acting community has given me for years now. It's very gracious of them, I think.' He has made several other limited appearance over the years, including in 2021 as he posed for photos with fans during Emerald City Comic Con and in 2019 at GalaxyCon Raleigh. 🎬SIGN UP for Parade's Daily newsletter to get the latest pop culture news & celebrity interviews delivered right to your inbox🎬

Volunteers continue beautifying Los Angeles ahead of large-scale events with ‘Shine L.A.' program
Community members are coming together to help spruce up Los Angeles as part of Mayor Karen Bass' new monthly initiative to beautify the city. The mayor's 'Shine L.A.' program was officially launched on April 26 with the goal of revitalizing city neighborhoods in preparation for large-scale events that will bring the world to the City of Angels, such as the FIFA World Cup and the 2028 Olympics. Last month's ceremony consisted of volunteers working at 16 sites across the city, including Hollywood, South L.A. and the South Bay. Coyote encounters in Santa Monica on the rise in wake of Palisades Fire 'I am grateful to each and every Angeleno who took pride in their city today and came out…to ensure L.A. is at its best and ready to welcome the world,' Bass said on April 26. 'We are building a movement that calls upon each of us to show up for the city that we love, and to show up for each other.' The 'Shine L.A.' program popped up in Sherman Oaks on Saturday, where hundreds of neighborhood volunteers doing exactly what they set out to do: making the community cleaner and safer for all, including visitors who have yet to arrive. 'We are going to be planting trees today and beautifying, which is cleaning up the tree wells and picking up trash, all along Ventura Boulevard and Van Nuys Boulevard,' one volunteer told KTLA 5's Jennifer McGraw early on Saturday morning. 'It takes a village…and if everyone is doing their part to clean — not only today, but every day — anything can help beautify,' said another volunteer, who is on the local chamber of commerce. 'Help us keep everything safe and clean for everybody.' Student loans have been confusing lately. Here's a guide to know where you stand Saturday morning's cleanup started at 8:30 a.m. lasts until 12:30 p.m., and those looking to participate are requested to meet at the Gelson's parking lot located at 4520 Van Nuys Boulevard. 'Shine L.A.' has their next cleanup — the 'Shine L.A.' AAPI Day of Service in honor of Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month — on May 31. It will take place in multiple neighborhoods 'from San Pedro to the San Fernando Valley,' the program's website states. Click here to sign up for the May 31 event. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc.
