Remi Wolf Brings Bonnaroo to Nashville With Star-Studded Superjam After Festival Cancelation
Remi Wolf made the most of an unfortunate situation after this year's Bonnaroo was canceled from Friday-Sunday (June 13-15) due to severe weather, hosting a joint concert in Nashville featuring Hayley Williams and more special guests.
On Saturday (June 14) — the same day the California native had been slated to host her Bonnaroo Superjam on the festival grounds in Manchester, Tenn., before thunderstorms forced the entire event to end early — Wolf took the stage at the Brooklyn Bowl in Nashville. In addition to singing several covers of '70s hits on her own, she and the Paramore frontwoman duetted on Chaka Khan's 'Sweet Thing' and 'Tell Me Something Good' with Rufus, according to The Tennessean.

Gigi Perez and Mt. Joy, who were also part of Bonnaroo's canceled Saturday lineup, performed their new song 'In The Middle,' while Grouplove helped Wolf sing Bonnie Raitt's 'I Can't Make You Love Me' and Hall and Oates' 'Rich Girl.' Plus, Brian Robert Jones assisted in paying tribute to Sly and the Family Stone — whose influential frontman, Sly Stone, died at the age of 82 last week — with a performance of 'Family Affair,' while Grace Bowers and Medium Build also shared songs.
'This is so f–king fun, thank you guys for coming out tonight,' Wolf reportedly told the crowd. 'We've been working on this show for like five months, and when Bonnaroo was canceled yesterday, we just had to make this s–t happen!'
According to The Tennessean, Wolf ended the show by having all of her guest artists return to the stage for a group performance of Earth, Wind & Fire's 'September.'
Just as it had been originally billed on the Bonnaroo lineup, the indie-pop star called her Nashville concert 'Remi Wolf's Insanely Fire 1970s Pool Party Superjam.' She announced the make-up show late Friday night, and tickets reportedly sold out the next morning.
The change of plans came in light of Bonnaroo's Friday announcement that the festival had been canceled after just one full day of performances. 'Today, the National Weather Service provided us with an updated forecast with significant and steady precipitation that will produce deteriorating camping and egress conditions in the coming days,' the festival shared in a statement. 'We are beyond gutted, but we must make the safest decision and cancel the remainder of Bonnaroo.'
The annual festival had been slated to last four straight days with sets from Olivia Rodrigo, Tyler, The Creator, Hozier and dozens more. Before it was delayed and eventually canceled, Bonnaroo kicked off Thursday (June 12) with performances by Luke Combs, Dom Dolla, Insane Clown Posse and Rebecca Black.

🥇 Sunday's World Cup highlights: generous Messi, Leila ‘Balboa' and Didico
The round of 16 of the World Cup continued this Sunday (29). Another quarter-final duel was defined after PSG and Bayern dispatched Inter Miami and Flamengo, respectively. You can subscribe to DAZN to watch all the FIFA Club World Cup games for free. Advertisement And there were highlights on social media. With Leila Pereira taking the lead and much more. Leila 'Balboa' 🥊 It's impossible to go to Philadelphia and not repeat the steps of Rocky Balboa, the character immortalized by Sylvester Stallone back in 1976, right? That's what Leila Pereira did when she climbed the 72 steps of the Philadelphia Museum of Art staircase. Which became the Rocky Steps after a statue of the character was installed there. The president of Palmeiras celebrated the team's qualification to the World Cup quarter-finals in this way. And, of course, there was a photo "next to" Rocky. It got tough, Messi... Lionel Messi had "only" his former club in front of him this Sunday. Advertisement The star faced an "away" game even while playing in the United States. The match was played at the Mercedes-Benz Stadium, in Atlanta. The stadium that is home to Atlanta Utd. There was even an unkind banner reminding of Messi's losses against the local rival. Atlanta also defeated Inter Miami 5 x 2 in September 2023. But Messi didn't play. The Argentine, on the other hand, has three victories against the rival. The other match between the teams with Messi on the field ended in a draw. Speaking of Messi... Lionel had a reunion with several former teammates. Dembélé, for example, played with him at Barcelona - he moved to PSG after Messi's departure. Advertisement And he took almost EVERYTHING from the Inter Miami star home. Many joked about the situation: Dembélé also got shirts from two other former Barça teammates: Did Busquets not want to collaborate? It raises the question. Was there a spot for him? Former striker Adriano couldn't contain himself in the final minutes of Flamengo 2 x 4 Bayern. Would it have been different with him there?

What it's like to cruise Disney with your whole family: The highs and lows
'Family Travel' is a six-part series showcasing the best experiences and destinations for young families looking for an escape. If you'd like to contribute to our future reporting and share your experience as a source, you can click here to fill out this quick form. I just got back from a weeklong sailing on the Disney Treasure with a group of ten people – ranging from toddlers to septuagenarians – and I've got thoughts on the magic at sea. If you're considering a Disney Cruise Line trip for your next big family vacation, here's what to expect, what surprised me, and what I wish we knew before we booked. A floating Disney bubble: What families can expect on Disney cruises Having been on multiple cruises on the major cruise lines serving American passengers, I would say Disney's Treasure had a strong food offering. No, the dishes weren't always piping hot, and the cocktails leaned a little too sweet for my taste, but the flavors were consistently strong. Each of the ship's three main restaurants rotates menus nightly, which helps when you're assigned to each twice or thrice. Across our group of ten, there wasn't a dish we didn't finish – and that's saying something with a couple of picky eaters. From carnitas at Plaza de Coco to beef tenderloin at 1923 to the chicken schnitzel at Worlds of Marvel, most dishes earned a solid 7 out of 10 from our crew. What made it better was the exceptional service. The waitstaff remembered our preferences and handled every request with warmth and care (shoutout to Thynelly and Duwi). We also tried the Treasure's two adults-only restaurants: Enchanté and Palo. Enchanté felt special – fine-dining level, easily a 9/10 for ambiance and service – and we only docked a point because our tastebuds weren't ready for the sophistication of the French menú. Palo, on the other hand, was a home run. Every dish, from the arugula salad to the chocolate soufflé, was a 10/10. If you're looking for one splurge-worthy dinner onboard, make it Palo. There's a reason 'Disney-quality' is the gold standard when people talk about live entertainment. Both "Beauty and the Beast" and "Disney the Tale of Moana" were full-blown stage musicals with incredible production value. The set design, sound engineering and cast were all Broadway-caliber. My mom even leaned over mid-show to ask if they were lip-syncing – because the vocals were that pristine. Yes, the storytelling felt a little rushed if you know the movies by heart. But quick pacing is probably wise when your audience includes lots of5-year-olds. Our only complaint was that the shows in the Walt Disney Theatre were shown on one day of each voyage – which is their typical scheduling. However, due to an unexpected medical evacuation that delayed our stop at Castaway Cay, we had to choose between staying on the island or catching "Moana." We picked the show, but I'm still salty about missing Disney's private beach. Let's talk about what Disney Cruise Line doesn't include. For a seven-day Caribbean sailing in a stateroom with a porthole view, we paid about $5,000. That's in the range between premium and luxury pricing, but the perks didn't always match the cost. There's no drink package. Specialty coffees and alcoholic drinks are à la carte. Adult trivia? That was free, but get there early before the room fills up. Wine tasting? Extra cost. Beer tasting? Extra cost. Workout classes? Extra cost. Spa access? Extra cost. Technically, you could attend a presentation about diamonds or luxury watches, but we all know how those end. The truth is, most of the free activities were geared toward kids. Adults in our group had a harder time finding things to do besides eat, drink and hang by the crowded pools. I tried to be productive and hit the gym, but the fitness center was small and often full. Granted, every cruise line attracts a different type of gym goer. I was working out by myself in Aurora Expeditions while timing when to avoid rush hour on Virgin Voyages. DCL was surprisingly busy every day of the sailing for the size of the facilities. Typically, not a huge deal, but as mentioned above, when there's not much for adults to do other than eat and drink, it did stick out. (Grateful for those Peloton bikes, though.) Our party of 10 included six who were on their third DCL sailing and four newbies (myself included). It was great to watch the kids light up exploring the ship, attend character meet-and-greets, and retell their adventures each night at dinner. Disney does an excellent job catering to families with small children. The activities, the entertainment, the energy – it's built for young families. For adults without kids, grandparents or those hoping for more balance between grown-up fun and family time, you might find yourself wishing for more options – or at least fewer upcharges. Would I go again? Maybe with a smaller group, and with clearer expectations. Because when Disney says it's for families, they really mean families with little ones front and center.

'Real Housewives of Atlanta' Stars React to Brit Eady Skipping the Season 16 Reunion in New Trailer
The Real Housewives of Atlanta season 16 reunion trailer dropped on Friday, June 27 The first look teased how stars Porsha Williams, Phaedra Parks, Shamea Morton Mwangi, Kelli Ferrell, Angela Oakley and Cynthia Bailey, respond to the news that castmate Brit Eady skipped the reunion Despite Eady's absence, the cast still divulge and recall what happened between Eady and former star, Kenya MooreBrit Eady continued to surprise her The Real Housewives of Atlanta season 16 castmates up until the day of the reunion. On Friday, June 27, Bravo released the first sneak preview of the upcoming three-part reunion of the hit reality series. During the quick trailer, fans got a peek at how the women reacted to fellow castmate Eady's decision to skip the reunion. Towards the first half of the trailer, host Andy Cohen tells Porsha Williams, Phaedra Parks, Shamea Morton Mwangi, Kelli Ferrell, Angela Oakley and Cynthia Bailey, that 'Brit Eady has decided not to join us.' The clip then cuts to a shocked Ferrell, 40, who says, 'Wow,' while another woman is heard in the background saying, 'What?' Eady's decision to skip the reunion followed PEOPLE's reporting on Thursday, June 5, that she and Kenya Moore would not be attending, Eady on her own volition, while Moore, 54, was not invited by Bravo to participate. Moore was the longest running RHOA star when season 16 began filming back in April 2024. But her time in the season was cut short in June 2024, after she exposed sexually explicit photos presumed to be from Eady's past to guests at the opening of her Kenya Moore Hair Spa. She was suspended — and after an internal investigation — exited the series. On the same day as the reunion taping, Thursday, June 5, Eady, 37, addressed her decision not to attend the reunion on her Instagram Stories, alleging that the photos Moore shared a year ago weren't of her to begin with. 'I do not know who was in that photo, but upon seeing it for the first time recently, I now know it was not me,' Eady continued in her statement. 'I look forward to seeking accountability and moving past this dark part of my life." During the reunion trailer, Williams, 44, seemingly acknowledges the incident and says, 'Kenya had gotten information from a current housewife about Brit's past.' Cohen, 57, then turns his attention to Ferrell and asks, 'Did you send her the pictures?' His question left Ferrell shocked and speechless. The trailer then cuts to other moments that tease tensions between Parks, 51, and Oakley, as well as Williams and Morton Mwangi, 43, which prompts Williams to leave the reunion set. Never miss a story — sign up for to stay up-to-date on the best of what PEOPLE has to offer, from celebrity news to compelling human interest stories. The Real Housewives of Atlanta airs Sundays at 8 p.m. ET on Bravo, and streams the next day on Peacock. The season's reunion will air in three parts on July 13, July 20 and July 27.
