This 20-year-old karaoke singer belted out a '90s R&B hit on a cruise. Here's how his life changed
A 20-year-old man from Georgia dubbed 'Carnival Cruise Tyler' has become a surprise sensation after he belted out a popular '90s R&B hit while on vacation with his family. Wearing his baseball cap backwards, a dark hoodie and shorts, Tyler Heyworth sang R&B icon Keith Sweat's 1996 sultry smash 'Nobody' before a crowd that showed some swaying, dancing, cheering, laughing and singing along. His performance ended with a standing ovation from fellow passengers on the Carnival Cruise line and videos that went viral on TiKTok. Billboard described in an article on June 18 that Heyworth's performance caused 'multiple crowd freakouts,' noting his 'understated confidence,' 'engaging' moves and 'strong vocals.' The viral videos were linked to streams of Sweat's song surging in the U.S. by mid-June, Billboard reported. Sweat's 'Nobody,' which featured Athena Cage, was released nine years before Heyworth was born. Because of his internet fame, Heyworth got to meet Sweat. He posted a video on July 5 of the moment, drawing more than 82,000 likes on his TikTok account. '(T)hank YOU guys for blowing up the karaoke videos and getting me noticed by THE @Keith Sweat!! BEST SUMMER EVER FR,' Heyworth wrote on the post's caption. Sweat also posted an Instagram video of the meeting on July 7, mentioning that his team had 'surprised' him by inviting Heyworth and his family. Sweat even invited Heyworth to sing 'Nobody' with him on stage at his show at Hard Rock Live in Hollywood, Fla., over the weekend, according to a post Monday by independent music blog Stereogum.

"Today we announce an investment that will provide clean, homegrown power to millions of homes for generations to come," he added. The plant, which has been in financial limbo for over a decade, is not expected to start generating electricity until the 2030s. Live Events The projected construction cost of £38 billion exceeds previous official estimates of £20 to £30 billion - and campaigners have warned that further cost overruns or delays could impact households. The final investment decision gives the government a 44.9% stake in the project. Among the new investors in Sizewell C, La Caisse holds a 20% stake, Centrica 15% and investment manager Amber Infrastructure an "initial" 7.6%. EDF announced earlier this month that it will take a 12.5% stake in the project - down from 16.2% ownership the end of 2024. The UK has refocused on shoring up nuclear power since the start of the war in Ukraine, in the name of energy security and faced with a fleet of ageing power stations. Prime Minister Keir Starmer's government has also pledged by 2035 to reduce UK greenhouse gas emissions by 81% on 1990 levels, under plans to reach net-zero by 2050.

Bob Odenkirk kept training since 'Nobody' for bigger sequel
1 of 5 | Bob Odenkirk, seen at the 2025 Tony Awards in New York City, returns in "Nobody 2." File Photo by Angelina Katsanis/UPI | License Photo July 17 (UPI) -- Universal Pictures released a behind-the-scenes look at Nobody 2 on Thursday. The film opens Aug. 15 in theaters. In the featurette, star Bob Odenkirk tells viewers he continued training after he wrapped the first Nobody, which opened in 2021. For that film, he trained two years with Daniel Bernhardt and the 87eleven Action Design team. On the set of Nobody 2, Odenkirk is seen offering to do extra takes and lifting weights on the set claiming, "Come on, that's not hard." Bernhardt confirmed that Odenkirk was ready for more in the sequel. "Bob was already on a whole different level," Bernhardt said. "It's a whole different game now." Producer David Leitch, who co-created the John Wick franchise and has directed Atomic Blonde, The Fall Guy and more, said Nobody 2 took advantage of Odenkirk's new skills. "When you get an actor that does that and immerses themselves, it allows you to create action that you couldn't create for some other actor who doesn't have the discipline," Leitch said. "We can amp up the level in this film." Odenkirk returns as Hutch, a retired assassin who takes his family on vacation and stumbles upon another criminal operation. He fights bad guys on a boat, in an arcade and an elevator, among other action settings.
