The first trailer for the Bruce Springsteen biopic with Jeremy Allen White just dropped and I couldn't be more excited
As someone born and raised in New Jersey (and who's been to his share of Springsteen concerts), the trailer has me more excited than Courtney Cox at a concert for the movie's official release this October.
Instead of looking over his entire career, a la "Ray" or "Walk the Line," "Springsteen: Deliver Me from Nowhere" captures a specific point in time: when Bruce was recording his 1982 album "Nebraska."
During that era, he was already fairly popular — he had already recorded five albums, including "Born to Run" and "The River" — but had yet to reach the levels of superstardom with "Born in the U.S.A.," which didn't come out until 1984.
In the trailer, we see Jeremy Allen White as the adult Springsteen, finally with some success, sitting behind the wheel of a new Camaro — complete with a 305 V8 engine, a nod to Springsteen's many car references in his songs.
The trailer also shows a few flashbacks in black and white of the artist as a boy and the difficulties he faced growing up. It then cuts to his recording of the album solo in his home.
At the end of the trailer, we get a taste of White's crooning abilities as he sings "Born to Run" with the rest of the E Street Band. And, I have to say, from that brief clip, he does more than a passable job at imitating the Boss's voice.

"Springsteen: Deliver Me from Nowhere" is directed by Scott Cooper ("Black Mass," "Hostiles") and also stars Marc Maron, Gaby Hoffman, Jeremy Strong, and David Krumholtz. It will be released exclusively in theaters on October 24.

A$AP Rocky x Ray-Ban's "Next Generation" Collection Faces the Future
Summary The throughline inA$AP Rocky's creative vision is that it's undoubtedly future-facing. From fashion collections, creative partnerships, and, of course, his music, everything Rocky does is an attempt to push the needle in a new way. One of his latest artistic ventures has been asRay-Ban's first-ever Creative Director, revealing his first release in the role of Wayfarer Puffer frames last month and now readying his second range, which, naturally, leans into Rocky's futuristic perception. Aptly entitled the 'Next Generation' collection, Rocky's sophomore Ray-Ban offering spans three new sunglass models: Ultra Wrap 001, Ultra Wrap 002, and Ultra Wrap 003. The trio of futuristic frames was debuted in Paris, at Rocky'sAWGEParis Fashion Week runway. While the Wayfarers landed in a lineup of bright hues, the Ultra collection is rooted in its sleek all-black color palette, but does similarly arrive in a lineup of vibrant shades. Ultra-Wrap 001 sticks to an inflated wraparound silhouette, with Ultra-Wrap 002 defined by its thick temples, and Ultra-Wrap 003 almost a mix of both, featuring bold wraparound lenses and thick, curved temples. Take a closer look at all three new Ultra frames in the gallery below and cop a pair now at Ray-Ban's officialwebstore.

Patti Scialfa makes rare appearance at Linda Ronstadt tribute in Nashville
Bruce Springsteen's sweetheart and storied musician, Patti Scialfa, made a rare appearance this week. Scialfa, 71, was part of a star-studded tribute to Linda Ronstadt at the Country Music Hall of Fame in Nashville. Alongside Trisha Yearwood and other singer-songwriter legends, Scialfa took the stage on July 22 for a spate of heartfelt performances. Springsteen's longtime wife and collaborator, and a member of the E Street Band, Scialfa sang "To Know Him Is to Love Him" and "Birds" with Yearwood and Emmylou Harris. Her set also included a duet of "Valerie" with Harris and "The Water Is Wide" with Yearwood, Harris, Rodney Crowell and James Taylor. The event was co-produced by Yearwood and the Country Music Hall of Fame, and was put on in connection with the museum's newest exhibition, "Western Edge: The Roots and Reverberations of Los Angeles Country-Rock." "I'm not exaggerating when I say that Linda Ronstadt is the reason I became a singer," Yearwood said, according to the Country Music Hall of Fame. "Celebrating Linda and her fellow LA-based musicians alongside some of my biggest musical heroes is a lifelong dream come true for me." Scialfa, a New Jersey native, was diagnosed with multiple myeloma, a rare blood cancer, in September, and her appearances and performances since have been sporadic. 'This affects my immune system, so I just have to be careful what I choose to do and where I choose to go," said Scialfa in the 2024 documentary "Road Diary: Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band." "Every once in a while, I come to a show or two and I can sing a few songs onstage, and that's been a treat," she added. "That's the new normal for me right now, and I'm OK with that." Sciafa's last live performance was in April, when she took the stage to celebrate at the Bruce Springsteen Archives and Center for American Music's American Music Honors. Smokey Robinson, John Fogerty, Emmylou Harris, Tom Morello and Joe Ely, in absentia, were bestowed honors by Scialfa, Springsteen, Little Steven Van Zandt and Nils Lofgren. For fans eager to hear from the red-headed songstress, The Yearwood and Friends Ronstadt salute was filmed and will be available next month on the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum's website and YouTube channel.
