Food Network to pay ‘tribute' to Anne Burrell on new season of ‘Worst Cooks': When to watch
A representative for Food Network was not immediately available to comment on what the tributes would entail.
Burrell had starred on the reality cooking show since its debut in 2010, serving as a mentor to some of the 'worst cooks' each season. The 29th season of the show, subtitled 'Talented and Terrible,' was filmed before Burell's death on June 17.
The debut episode of the new season airs July 28 at 9 p.m. EDT on Food Network.
Food Network and parent company Warner Bros. Discovery had previously announced plans to highlight programming featuring Burrell, first during a special programming block that aired about a week after her death.
'Anne Burrell was a one-of-a-kind talent whose loss is being deeply felt by family, friends and fans,' Betsy Ayala, the head of content (food) at Warner Bros. Discovery, said in a statement shared in a press release last month.
'With these special programming events, we hope to honor Anne and celebrate her impact on Food Network and beyond, and to offer fans a way to remember her passion and culinary prowess that ran through everything she did,' Ayala continued.
Burrell, 55, was pronounced dead after she was found unresponsive in her New York home in June. Last week, the medical examiner's office in NYC determined Burrell's cause of death to be 'acute intoxication due to the combined effects of diphenhydramine, ethanol, cetirizine, and amphetamine.'
Her manner of death was listed as suicide.
The late chef was well-known for her appearances on multiple Food Network shows. She grew up in upstate New York and attended Canisius College in Buffalo, earning a degree in English and communications, her Food Network biography reads. She later attended the Culinary Institute of America and the Italian Culinary Institute for Foreigners. She also worked in some of New York City's top restaurants.
'Anne was a remarkable person and culinary talent — teaching, competing and always sharing the importance of food in her life and the joy that a delicious meal can bring,' Food Network wrote of Burrell on the day of her passing. 'Our thoughts are with Anne's family, friends and fans during this time of tremendous loss.'
Burrell is survived by her husband, Stuart Claxton, whom she married in 2021. They share a son, Javier, from Claxton's previous marriage.

Euphoria Season 3: Release window, cast, plot details – Everything we known so far
By Aman Shukla Published on August 2, 2025, 20:30 IST Last updated August 2, 2025, 19:58 IST HBO's Euphoria has fans buzzing with anticipation for its third season. The show's gritty take on love, addiction, and growing up has made it a cultural phenomenon. After delays and heartbreak, Season 3 is finally coming together. Here's everything known about the release window, cast, and plot. Release Window: When Will Euphoria Season 3 Premiere? Waiting for Euphoria Season 3 has tested everyone's patience. HBO initially hinted at a 2025 release, but Warner Bros. Discovery's streaming boss, JB Perrette, confirmed in December 2024 that it's now slated for 2026. Filming started in February 2025 in Los Angeles, with HBO dropping a teaser image of Zendaya as Rue, looking pensive in a dimly lit setting. Based on typical production timelines, expect a premiere in mid-to-late 2026 on HBO and Max in the U.S., or Sky Atlantic and Now for UK fans. Who's in the Euphoria Season 3 Cast? The Euphoria Season 3 cast is a mix of beloved regulars and exciting new faces, though some absences will sting. Here's who's in: Zendaya (Rue Bennett): The show's soul, Rue will keep grappling with her demons and relationships. Hunter Schafer (Jules Vaughn): Jules is back, with her and Rue's complicated bond likely front and center. Sydney Sweeney (Cassie Howard): Sweeney's pumped to return, teasing a wild ride for Cassie. Jacob Elordi (Nate Jacobs): Nate's toxic edge will persist, possibly tied to a wedding teased in set photos. Maude Apatow (Lexi Howard): Lexi's quiet strength and creative spark will shine, maybe alongside Fez. Alexa Demie (Maddy Perez): Maddy's fierce vibe is non-negotiable. Eric Dane (Cal Jacobs): Dane's hinted at a redemption arc for Cal, who's locked up post-Season 2. Colman Domingo (Ali Mohammed): Rue's wise NA sponsor will keep guiding her. Dominic Fike (Elliot): Elliot's messy dynamic with Rue and Jules is set to evolve. What's the Plot of Euphoria Season 3? Sam Levinson's keeping the plot under lock and key, but nuggets from interviews and set leaks paint a picture. Season 3 will feel like a 'film noir,' exploring morality in a messy world, per Levinson. A five-year time jump, confirmed by costume designer Heidi Bivens, takes the characters out of high school, letting them navigate adulthood's challenges. Story Hints to Expect Rue's Path: Zendaya's passionate about giving Rue's arc closure, focusing on her sobriety and ties with Jules. Their relationship, rocked by betrayals and relapses, will likely drive emotional stakes. Cassie and Nate Drama: A set photo shared by @euphoriacentral on X shows Cassie in a wedding dress with 'C&N' initials, sparking buzz about a Nate-Cassie wedding. Could be real, could be a dream— Euphoria loves a twist. Lexi and Fez: Maude Apatow's rooting for Lexi and Fez to reconnect, though his post-shootout fate (jail? freedom?) is unclear. Cal's Comeback: Eric Dane's teased Cal seeking redemption from behind bars, which could tie into the noir theme. New Vibes: The time jump and new cast suggest fresh rivalries and alliances. Levinson's vision might dig into societal flaws or personal struggles, keeping the show's raw edge. Ahmedabad Plane Crash Aman Shukla is a post-graduate in mass communication .

Joanna Cassidy Celebrates 80th Birthday in Sexy Beach Shoot Weeks After Revealing Romance with Alan Hamel (Exclusive)
The actress posed for photos exclusive to PEOPLE, celebrating her 80th birthday, feeling wonderful and carefreeNEED TO KNOW Joanna Cassidy, the actress known for roles in Don't Tell Mom the Babysitter's Dead and Blade Runner, celebrates her 80th birthday on Aug. 2 The actress tells PEOPLE about the milestone birthday, which comes on the heels of her exciting new relationship with Alan Hamel Cassidy and Hamel talk about getting older, staying in shape and what's next for the actress in the latest stage of her careerJoanna Cassidy is feeling fabulous at 80! The Blade Runner actress celebrates her 80th birthday on Aug. 2, sharing photos from a Malibu beach photoshoot marking the milestone. In a chat with PEOPLE about the special milestone, she admits she feels "no different than when I was 30, quite honestly." "Time is an illusion! I'm very aware of the fact that it's passing very quickly, but it's sort of nothing. I just say, 'Go day by day.' " Cassidy admits that she "can't say I'm excited about the number," but assures, "otherwise it's just another adventure, another decade." "I know I'll make it through beautifully and come out the other side of that one. Who knows what'll happen after that? Just a decade. I think that when I turned 50, that was sort of the hard one, but this is just icing on the cake. I feel like I'm 35 and I think I look pretty good." 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. Cassidy says that part of keeping herself young is nurturing her mind, body and spirit. "I think the most important thing that I do, which I've been learning how important it is, is to give back. I'm not on that trajectory anymore, where I have to accomplish things. The only things I have to accomplish are taking care of myself and working out and being a kind, loving person," she says. "My mind is still open to learning how to be a good person. And every time I find another instance where I can be that, I just feel better. I know that has to do with your DNA, your all-around cellular health." She continues, "I have animals. I love animals. I love to walk. I love to exercise. It's important to me to interact with people and hear them and listen and see what kind of exchange we can make. It was sort of miraculous to run into Alan. I hadn't even seen him in 30 years." Cassidy and boyfriend Alan Hamel made their unofficial debut as a couple earlier this summer. Hamel agrees that what brought them together was "a miracle." "We met over 50 years ago. Joanna was a guest on my show in Canada, and that was in the late '70s, I think. The next time I saw her, she was doing a major mini-series with Suzanne and Anthony Hopkins. And then I didn't see her again until a few months ago," he tells PEOPLE. "We connected, and I'm happy that we connected. She's a great woman. The thing is that she will help anybody to do anything. She's amazing that way," Hamel continues. Laughing, he adds, "I don't have that DNA. She does. It's amazing. It's admirable. Next to her, I feel like there's more I should be doing for the world." The two look forward to celebrating Joanna's birthday throughout August, getting outside and making memories together. "The aging process is great. People think that it's not, but it's great. You get a lot more out of each birthday, especially when you're celebrating after five years or 10 years," Hamel says. Cassidy is also looking for more out of her career. In addition to three projects already in the works, she's looking for the next big role, preferably an action-packed one. "Well, having been in the original Blade Runner, my sense of physicality [is important]. Before we did this interview, I just did a class that was one of the hardest classes I've ever taken. I came back, and my legs were shaking. Everything's shaking on me. And so that's a really important part of my life, is to be in the gym and work out and push myself physically," she says. "I love to do that. And I want to be in another adventure movie. I want to be in a movie where I can show those attributes that I have. That's what I want to do." Hamel agrees, celebrating his partner as "perfect to be an action hero." "The reality is, she's taller than most women and in great physical condition," he says, adding to Cassidy, "You could probably do all your own stunts as well. And I think there's room for a female action hero out there." "Don't get me wrong, I played a lot of grannies too. I was a granny in Six Feet Under, and I enjoyed the heck out of that. I love to play women who are kind of badass emotionally and physically," she says. "I like it. I'd like to play Charlize Theron's mother. That's what I'd love to do."

Katy Perry And Justin Trudeau's Relationship: Reports
There's a new report about Katy Perry and Justin Trudeau. The two made headlines earlier this week for being photographed grabbing dinner together at a Montreal restaurant. The Canadian ex-prime minister was then seen singing along in the crowd at Katy's Lifetimes tour. Earlier this year, reports emerged that Katy had split from fiancé Orlando Bloom after nine years together. Similarly, Justin was married to Sophie Grégoire Trudeau for 18 years until their separation in 2023. A source now told People that Katy and Justin "are interested in each other, but it will take a while to see where this goes." 'She is traveling around the world, and he is figuring out his life now that he is no longer prime minister of Canada, but there is an attraction. They have a lot in common," the source continued, listing "music" and being "idealists." Both Katy and Justin also have children; Katy has a daughter and Justin has three kids. 'Their own personal responsibilities could make this relationship move slower than it would, but there are ways to see the other and still fulfill their parenting responsibilities,' the source added. Another source further said, '[The] timing seems good for them, although a romance is in very early stages." I suppose only time will tell...
