The Beatles Claim A Pair Of Top 40 Hits As One New Project Returns
The Beatles are back on two tallies this frame with a composition that many fans may not immediately recognize. 'From Us to You' returns to the Official Vinyl Singles chart at No. 39, narrowly making it into the top 40 on the U.K.-based list. At the same time, it also appears on the Official Physical Singles list, coming in at No. 55.
The title 'From Us to You' might sound like a typo, especially to anyone familiar with The Beatles's discography, but it's a different release from the beloved classic 'From Me to You,' which became one of the band's earliest No. 1s in the U.K.
'From Us to You' is the name of an extended play that was originally recorded by the BBC in July 1964. It was broadcast the following month and only recently received a proper commercial release. That drop included a small batch of songs — among them 'A Hard Day's Night' — and has been racking up sales ever since it arrived.
This isn't the first time 'From Us to You' has appeared on either of the lists it returns to this frame. In fact, the EP previously cracked the top 10 on both the Official Vinyl Singles and the Official Physical Singles charts.
The project was more successful on the vinyl-focused roster, where it once soared as high as No. 9. Its run on the broader physical sales list wasn't quite as impressive, though it did manage to climb to No. 10 and spend at least one week in the highest tier.
While it might feel like a fresh entry, 'From Us to You' has been charting intermittently since its official release in November 2024. Despite being more than half a century old, the EP is treated like a new single on these rankings, since the U.K. charts group vinyl and CD sales into single-track categories.
While 'From Us to You' returns to the top 40 on the Official Vinyl Singles chart, The Beatles score another top 40 on the Official Physical Singles list with a different tune.
'Now and Then,' which dominated headlines in 2023 when it was released as the group's final 'new' single, slips slightly on that chart. The ballad dips from No. 30 to No. 40 on the latest ranking, barely holding on inside the highest tier. That roster includes all physical formats — vinyl, CD, and cassette — and gives a broader look at what's selling in stores and online.

Richard Johnson: Famed photographer Harry Benson still shooting at 96
Richard Johnson: Famed photographer Harry Benson still shooting at 96 NEW YORK — Photographer Harry Benson is a living legend. At 96 — having shot Winston Churchill, Jackie Onassis, Elizabeth Taylor, Muhammad Ali and every U.S. president since Dwight D. Eisenhower — he's still shooting. Benson was standing right next to RFK when he was shot and killed by Sirhan Sirhan in 1968. 'I still remember Bobby Kennedy's last words moments before he was shot,' recalled Benson. ''See you in Chicago,' he said to me. It was the Democratic National Convention where his official nomination for the presidency would never happen.' 'Out of nowhere, a gun comes out. … Next thing you know, Bobby's on his back looking up at me. It's an image in my head I can never fully let go of.' Benson was there with The Beatles to capture their famous pillow fight. 'At first, John [Lennon] didn't want to do it,' Benson recalls. 'But that didn't last very long. In a way, he was really the instigator of the whole thing.' Benson has mounted the largest retrospective of his career. Steve Hartman of Contessa Gallery in Southampton has been representing Benson in this colossal undertaking since 2013. 'You'd think at age 96, Harry would slow down,' says Hartman. 'He's always impeccably dressed. Loves dogs. And he cusses like a sailor.' While Benson has photographed some of the greatest icons who ever lived, he has never photographed himself. 'I look like a jerk,' Benson laughed. 'Why would I want to photograph a jerk?' His wife, Gigi, has a higher opinion of her husband. **** Jason Mitchell Kahn, who's been planning weddings for 15 years, knows why he gets paid the big bucks. 'People hire someone like me to avoid catastrophes,' Kahn told me. Kahn started out at SoHo House where he threw parties for Beyoncé and Madonna. The job took him around the world, from Oscar parties in Los Angeles to chateaus in Cannes, and even an underground subway station in Toronto. Now he's written a book 'We Do: An Inclusive Guide When a Traditional Wedding Won't Cut It.' The demand for his services remains strong. 'People are getting married. They're getting divorced. They're getting remarried. It's a sustainable industry.' There are surprises. 'People are not accustomed to a five-hour open bar,' said Kahn, who lives on the Upper West Side with his terrier, Barnaby. 'It can bring out some interesting behavior.' **** Cal Hoffman got naked to promote his new novel, 'Easy to Slip.' The author took his clothes off at The Jane's Street Art Center in Saugerties and posed nude for three hours as he read his book to the participating artists while they sketched his parts. It was just one stop of a 13-city book tour that kicked off in Greenville South Carolina, and headed to Pittsburgh. The final stop is Aug. 13 in Seattle. The author, married to Victoria Leacock Hoffman, recently packed the Mercer Hotel with such fans as Emma Snowdon-Jones, Eric Rudin, author Michael Gross and singer Dylan Hundley. Hoffman, fully dressed, is getting ready to publish his next novel 'Judah Can't Tell,' a political family drama set in 2019 in Washington, DC. **** Bobbi Brown wasn't born a makeup genius. 'When I started doing makeup, I was really bad at it,' she told me. 'I worked with girls who looked better when they washed their faces.' So Brown perfected a more natural look, and developed her own line of cosmetics. It was such a success, it was bought by Estée Lauder in 1995. After her non-compete elapsed, she founded a new company in 2020, but she couldn't use her own name. 'I was driving out to the Hamptons. I saw a sign for Jones Road. It was available.' Jones Road is now estimated to be worth almost $1 billion. Brown has written a memoir 'Still Bobbi' and will meet her fans at East Hampton Library's Authors Night on Saturday. Charlamagne Tha God blurbed, 'Bobbi Brown proves that growth doesn't require reinvention, just the courage to be yourself— loudly, proudly, and unapologetically — at every stage of the journey.' She's done makeup for Whitney Houston, Susan Sarandon, Michelle Obama and even Mike Tyson. 'Mike said, 'You're not touching me.' So I showed him a mirror, and he let me powder his face.' Brown, a mother of three sons with her husband, Steven Plofker, said: 'After all these years, I'm still the same girl I was growing up in Chicago. I'm still Bobbi.' **** Joseph Hernandez, who is running for New York City mayor as an independent, is hoping he can save the city from electing the Democratic Party's frontrunner, Zohran Mamdani. Hernandez, who marched Sunday in the Bronx Dominican Day Parade, told me, 'I'm really a business guy. I have no business in politics, but I felt an obligation to do something.' The Cuban-born biotech entrepreneur is suing the city to have ranked choice voting in the general election, as well as the primary. 'A two-tiered election system is fundamentally unfair,' said Hernandez. 'Every New Yorker deserves a vote that counts, and every candidate deserves a level playing field—regardless of party affiliation. Ranked choice voting ensures majority support and real choice. Without it, the system is rigged in favor of political insiders.' Hernandez, who calls himself a 'centrist,' wants to hire 10,000 new police officers with the $15 billion he will cut from other programs. He says he would not raise taxes. 'I signed a pledge that I would never raise taxes on New Yorkers.' Hernandez points out that the city has 300,000 employees, while Google has 180,000 and Microsoft has 120,000 in the U.S. 'And we don't keep our streets clean, or fix our potholes.' **** Alexa Ray Joel knows how horrible depression can be from her father, Billy Joel. 'My father has struggled with depression his entire life, which led to his drinking,' Alexa told me. 'And I myself have struggled with depression in my teens and twenties. It's really personal for me.' Alexa was the Celebrity Grand Marshal for Audrey Gruss' Hope For Depression Research Foundation's Tenth Annual 5K Race hon Sunday in Southampton. She also was interviewed for four hours for the two-part HBO documentary 'Billy Joel: And So It Goes,' which revealed two suicide attempts in the Piano Man's past. Alexa's mom, Christie Brinkley, provided lots of footage from their decade together. 'She used to bring her video camera to every show,' Alexa said. Alexa is releasing the music video of her song 'Riverside Way' this month co-starring her fiance, Ryan Gleason. 'He's really good, and handsome.' **** Lorna Luft, daughter of Judy Garland and sister of Liza Minnelli, was brunching on lollipop pancakes and French toast with her grandchildren at Carnegie Diner & Cafe … Nightlife impresario Vito Bruno, who ran for State Senate five years ago, is hosting Beatstock 2025 at Jones Beach on Aug. 16 featuring Boy George, Right Said Fred, C&C Music Factory and more … Luann de Lesseps played bongos to the music of the Gypsy Kings at Calissa in the Hamptons and shared a Greek feast with her boyfriend Michael Riemerschmid. _______________

Calvin Harris and Vick Hope announce birth of first child with controversial Instagram post
Presenter and author, Vick Hope, has welcomed her first child with DJ, Calvin Harris, a baby boy named Micah – and the couple have shared some intimate photos of the birth, plus some special post-birth moments, to celebrate. In a post from Calvin's account, re-shared by Vick, a series of images have been posted showing little Micah snuggled up with his dad, Vick and Micah in a birthing pool, and a jumpscare shot of a placenta. Calvin captioned the round-up, "20th of July our boy arrived. Micah is here! My wife is a superhero and I am in complete awe of her primal wisdom! Just so grateful. We love you so much Micah ❤️❤️❤️." As well as the placenta shot, a steamer containing chunks of the placenta was show, along with the organ in its final form: a jar of pills. Some women choose to have the placenta, an organ that develops during pregnancy to nourish the developing baby, turned into pills following the birth, believing they can help support recovery, energy levels, balance hormones and stave off depression. However, strong scientific evidence of this is lacking and it appears to be mostly anecdotal – but hey, absolutely each to their own! Commenting on the post, along with plenty of joyful well wishes, fans picked up on the placenta trilogy of pics, with one popular comment reading, "Placenta and placenta pills were not on my bingo card for today but ok". Another added, "Swiping: "Oh wow!…. That's amazing….. Congratula….. WHAT THE F*CK!?"" Singer Becky Hill also commented, writing, "love to see the placenta!! amazing we grow a whole new organ to provide life! good job not wasting it either, that's some goddess magic right there!"

Prince Andrew Had 'Affair' With Ghislaine Maxwell: Book
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. Prince Andrew had an "affair" with Ghislaine Maxwell, who launched a "premeditated" drive to reinvent him, according to a new biography. The Duke of York described himself as a friend of Maxwell and her as Jeffrey Epstein's girlfriend when he gave a disastrous interview to the BBC in 2019. The Newsnight sit-down led to him having to step back from public life and face widespread ridicule on social media. However, a new book about Andrew called Entitled: The Rise and Fall of the House of York, by Andrew Lownie, serialized in the Mail on Sunday, tells a more complicated story. Lownie writes: "Andrew and Ghislaine were good friends, and over the years had been occasional lovers—and through her, the prince had come into the ambit of her boyfriend Jeffrey Epstein." Newsweek reached out to representatives of Prince Andrew and Maxwell via email for comment. Prince Andrew and Ghislaine Maxwell at Ascot Racecourse on June 22, 2000. Prince Andrew and Ghislaine Maxwell at Ascot Racecourse on June 22, 2000. Tim Graham Photo Library via Getty Images Why It Matters Andrew's friendship with convicted sex offender Epstein has hung over him for years. The scandal flared up again more recently after a memo from the Department of Justice and FBI stated there was no evidence Epstein blackmailed prominent figures, confirmed no new charges of co-conspirators, and concluded that he died by suicide in his jail cell in 2019 while facing charges of sex trafficking. The July memo prompted a backlash from President Donald Trump's MAGA base, who felt they had been promised explosive new information. It brought renewed focus on Trump's own friendship with Epstein, which he says he terminated after the financier "stole" young women who worked in his Mar-a-Lago spa. Trump has previously denied knowing about Epstein's criminal sex trafficking operation. Epstein was thought to have abused hundreds of girls. Maxwell was jailed for 20 years in 2022 for sex trafficking over her role in assisting Epstein. She was given conditional immunity and newly interviewed by the DOJ in 2025 as part of the Trump administration review. Andrew was accused of sexual abuse by Virginia Giuffre, one of the most high-profile victims of Epstein, who died earlier this year. He denied the allegations and settled a lawsuit with her out of court for an undisclosed sum without accepting liability. What To Know Lownie writes that Andrew had been "rudderless" in 2001, the year he left the Royal Navy, having lived his entire life in heavily structured institutions. Maxwell then helped him reinvent himself, including his wardrobe, and ran his social calendar at the same time, while also using him to secure lucrative business deals, the book says. It adds that Andrew "appeared to be rediscovering his youth, hooked by the wealth and reach of new friends," while a friend quoted in the book says: "'He's spiralling out of control, he's even started dressing like a 25-year-old in jeans and blazer.'" "This lifestyle could be traced back to his closer relationship with Ghislaine," Lownie writes. "She introduced him to many of the women with whom he had brief flings, but she also drew him further into Epstein's net." Cynthia Matthews, a friend of Maxwell's, told the author that Andrew and Maxwell worked on foreign business ventures together, with the book citing "a hugely lucrative tobacco deal in Malawi that he helped broker, and a luxury vehicle deal in Thailand." "Andrew loved Thailand and spent a lot of time there," Matthews is quoted as saying. "In 2000, he resumed his on-off affair with Ghislaine," the book says. "In May they were spotted holding hands at a restaurant in Manhattan before flying to Miami, with model Naomi Campbell and Parisian art dealer Alexia Wallaert, on the Lolita Express, as Epstein's plane was known for flying so many young girls." Giuffre said she was trafficked to London to meet Prince Andrew in March 2001, alleging that she was made to have sex with him by Epstein and Maxwell, fearing for her life if she disobeyed. Andrew denies the allegation. What Prince Andrew Said About Epstein and Maxwell During his BBC interview, Andrew said: "Well, I met through his girlfriend back in 1999, I'd known her since she was at university in the U.K., and it would be, to some extent, a stretch to say that, as it were, we were close friends. I mean, we were friends because of other people, and I had a lot of opportunity to go to the United States, but I didn't have much time with him. "I suppose I saw him once or twice a year, perhaps maybe a maximum of three times a year and quite often if I was in the United States and doing things and if he wasn't there, he would say: 'Well, why don't you come and use my houses?' So I said: 'That's very kind, thank you very much indeed.'" Andrew also said: "It was his girlfriend that was the key element in this. He was the, as it were, plus one, to some extent, in that aspect." He acknowledged having stayed at Maxwell's home in Belgravia. It was never put to him that Maxwell was a past lover, and he therefore did not have the opportunity to respond to the suggestion. On Virginia Giuffre, he said: "I'm not in a position to know what she's trying to achieve, but I can tell you categorically I don't remember meeting her at all. "I do not remember a photograph being taken and I've said consistently and frequently that we never had any sort of sexual contact whatever." Asked whether he might have had sex with any young woman trafficked by Epstein, he replied: "No and without putting too fine a point on it, if you're a man, it is a positive act to have sex with somebody. "You have to have to take some sort of positive action and so therefore if you try to forget it's very difficult to try and forget a positive action and I do not remember anything." Andrew Lownie's Book Prince Andrew has not publicly responded to the book, but The Mail was sent a formal legal letter by Prince Harry's attorneys. The dispute with the Duke of Sussex related to passages detailing a fist fight between them and suggestions that Andrew believed Meghan Markle was an opportunist. Harry's team told Newsweek: "Such are the gross inaccuracies, damaging and defamatory remarks made in the Daily Mail's story, I can confirm a legal letter from Prince Harry's counsel has been sent to the Mail." And a statement from a spokesperson on Saturday read: "I can confirm Prince Harry and Prince Andrew have never had a physical fight, nor did Prince Andrew ever make the comments he is alleged to have made about the Duchess of Sussex to Prince Harry."
