The singer and former Hannah Montana star released the album Something Beautiful and a music video for "Easy Lover" on Friday.

"No I just can't give you up, but you're not an easy lover," she sings. The music artist, 32, shared a photo carousel on Instagram Thursday to commemorate the album release. The first image shows the pop star wearing cheetah print pants and a black jacket. "Celebrating the release of Something Beautiful the perfect way," she captioned the post. "Tonight was heaven, surrounded by the ones I love, adorning our ears with beautiful things as we count down to the moment I get to fill yours with this album I adore. Love to everyone who showed their support along this journey." The final two images in the carousel show Cyrus apparently getting an ear piercing.

14 Weird Celebrity Photos From The '00s And '10s
Some celebrity photos are iconic and others are so bizarre, they feel like they were generated by an AI robot with flair. I scavenged the internet to find some of the strangest, unhinged celebrity pics out there — and trust me, they did not disappoint. Here are 14 of the strangest celebrity photos that honestly feel made up (but aren't): Simon Cowell holding Hello Kitty toast backstage at the 2002 Teen Choice Awards. TV's crankiest talent judge holding a piece of toast with Hello Kitty's face on it is the crossover event we never expected. Pre-Transformers Megan Fox getting a caricature at the World of Disney Store opening. How 2004 of her. Jack Black taking a breezy bike ride to the Late Night with David Letterman show in 2005. In true Jack Black fashion, he rolled up in boxers and sandals, giving New York commuters the most unforgettable pre-show entrance ever. This photo of Zac Efron taking a hugeeee leap of faith during a 2006 High School Musical press event in Australia. The cast was posing together, but Zac? He took it to the next level—literally—by launching himself into the air. It's giving "Troy Bolton's final form." Noah Centineo this pose is, at the 2019 Midsommar screening. Justin Bieber holding a comically large tennis racket at the 2009 Arthur Ashe Kids Day. This is peak 2000s energy. Nicki Minaj eating a turkey leg while performing on Good Morning America in 2011. The bright outfit and the sheer power stance lives rent-free in our minds. Sharon Osbourne losing a tooth on live TV. During a 2020 episode of The Talk, Sharon's dental implant literally popped out mid-conversation. She laughed it off and kept going like it was just another day — iconic, unbothered, and just a little bit unhinged. Ariana Grande cementing her hands for her 2011 track "Put Your Hearts Up." Why Grande did this to promote her debut single, we'll never understand. But honestly, what's more random than casting your hands in cement for a bubblegum pop song you'll eventually disown? Will Ferrell casually holding a falcon. As part-owner for the Los Angeles Football Club, Will Ferrell participated in pre-game rituals by holding the team's falcon mascot in 2019. Just another day in the life. Steve Carell dressing as Gru on The Ellen Show in 2017. We all knew Steve Carell voiced the iconic villain in Despicable Me, but seeing him fully commit to the role with prosthetics and a bald cap? That's next-level dedication. Adam Sandler showing up to the 2025 Oscars in full dad attire is the kind of Academy Awards energy we didn't know we needed — and honestly? He's starting the "Adam Sandler Core" movement and we're so here for it. Miley Cyrus "posing" at Jingle Ball 2013 is We're not quite sure what, but we do know that the Bangerz era was truly unmatched for its peak chaos. Paris Hilton and Kim Kardashian visiting an Australian children's hospital in 2006. The fact that there's almost no context to these pics online makes this trio feel all the more like a fever dream. So, did you find these photos just as random as I did? Have you seen some of these chaotic moments before, or did they unlock a new core memory? Let us know in the comments below!

The Last Of Us Viewers Spot Surprise Cameo In Latest Episode
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. Fans of The Last of Us were quick to light up social media after spotting an unexpected cameo in the latest episode of the hit HBO series. Actor Josh Peck made a surprise appearance in Season 2, Episode 4, catching many viewers off guard. Why It Matters The Last of Us has become a major hit following it's 2023 debut. While Season 1 racked up 32 million viewers overall—"the largest audience for an HBO and Max debut season ever," per Deadline—the Season 2 premiere episode outperformed the Season 1 premiere episode by 10 percent, the outlet reported. The Season 2 reviews are also largely positive, U.K. television presenter Graham Norton saying he's never "read such good reviews for a television show." Josh Peck arrives at the Teen Choice Awards at the Galen Center on Sunday, Aug. 16, 2015, in Los Angeles. Josh Peck arrives at the Teen Choice Awards at the Galen Center on Sunday, Aug. 16, 2015, in Los Angeles. Chris Pizzello/Invision/AP What To Know The episode features 38-year-old Peck as a FEDRA (Federal Disaster Response Agency) soldier in a flashback scene depicting the Seattle quarantine zone in 2018. During the scene, Peck's character shares a darkly humorous story inside an armored military vehicle. He recalls an encounter with "voters"—a derogatory term used for people stripped of their right to vote—where another soldier named Greenberg violently assaults one of them. The story prompts Isaac Dixon (Jeffrey Wright) to explain the origin of the term, criticizing Peck's character for not understanding its significance. The mood shifts when their vehicle is stopped by a school bus and approached by a group. In a shocking twist, Dixon steps out, identifies himself, and then throws grenades into the vehicle, killing the other soldiers, including Peck's character. He then turns to his remaining comrade, Burton, and chillingly says, "Now make your choice." While Peck's cameo only lasts a total of four minutes, it had a lasting impact on fans. "The second josh peck hit my screen i yelled "JOSH PECK?!?" that was the most unexpected appearance ever," one X user said. "Josh Peck being on #TheLastOfUs was not on my bingo card," another wrote. Josh Peck began his acting career as a child star, landing early roles in Snow Day and The Amanda Show. His breakout came with Nickelodeon's hit sitcom Drake & Josh, which aired from 2004 to 2007 and became one of the network's most popular shows. Since then, Peck has appeared in series including Grandfathered, How I Met Your Father, and Turner & Hooch, and recently made a cameo in the Oscar-winning film Oppenheimer. Though his role in The Last of Us was kept under wraps, Peck had teased his involvement. A known fan of the series, he posted a TikTok sketch last week spoofing a therapy session after the shocking death of main character Joel (Pedro Pascal). In the video's caption, he hinted at his upcoming appearance, writing: "Oh and I'm officially allowed to say, episode 4, let's just say, you're not ready." Meanwhile, in an interview with Mashable, Peck described his cameo in The Last of Us as a "pinch-me role." The American TV show is based on the video game franchise, where the collapse of society has been caused by pandemic which induces a zombie-like state in humans. What Happens Next The second season of The Last of Us premiered on Sunday, April 13. New episodes drop on Sundays through Sunday, May 25, and viewers can watch the show on HBO or stream on Max. The show has already been renewed for a third season.

Pop star, 35, has barely aged a day since one hit wonder 16 years ago
THIS music star has barely aged a day 16 years on from her famous hit song. The rapper shot to fame back in 2008 with the release of her chart topping hit, Lip Gloss. 4 Now 35, Niatia Kirkland - better known as Lil' Mama - looks frozen in time in a new video uploaded to Instagram. In the clip, Niatia can be seen walking past a petrol station then down the streets of Brooklyn in a racy outfit. She wears a denim co-ord, which reveals her incredible toned stomach and a lacy red bra. She accessorises the look with a trench coat, red fur bag adding a huge diamond chain around her neck. The music star then tosses her bright neon hair to the side before sending kisses to the camera.

Xoxo, Gossip Girl. Penn Badgley was asked about his relationship with ex-girlfriend and former 'Gossip Girl' co-star Blake Lively on Wednesday's episode of 'Call Her Daddy.'

You feel like you're constantly — even though no one may be actually asking you to do this — you feel like you're constantly needing to prove yourself in some manner. Otherwise, what are you doing?' The 'Easy A' star continued, 'What starts to happen when you're in this one role for a long time, the aspect of celebrity being a huge part of it. There is not enough separation for anybody. You're seen as this person, you're called their name out on the street. You also constantly have to be that person at work.' 11 Penn Badgley, Blake Lively in 'Gossip Girl.'
