Which K-pop Demon Hunter Matches Your Zodiac?

If your zodiac sign had a stage name and a secret demon-slaying identity, this would be it. Whether you're the group's fearless leader, the softie with a rebellious edge, or secretly plotting world domination (👀 looking at you, Scorpio), the K-pop Demon Hunters universe has someone who totally gets your vibe. Let's match your star sign with your animated alter ego: ♈ Aries — Mira Fiery. Loyal. A little reckless. You're the one who charges into battle (or drama) head-first. Like Mira, you don't trust easily — but once someone earns it, your loyalty is fierce. Rebellious and bold, you bring chaos and clarity to the group. ♉ Taurus — Bobby Grounded. Protective. Always has snacks. You're the dependable one, low-key holding everything together while everyone else runs around slaying demons (or making bad decisions). Like Bobby, you'll scream, cry, and schedule everything to keep your people thriving. ♊ Gemini — Jinu Flirty. Dual-natured. Lowkey dramatic. You live for duality — and Jinu is duality. Once a soft-hearted boy, now a charismatic demon pop star with a tragic past? Sounds familiar. Your charm's magnetic, but you've got layers. So many layers. ♋ Cancer — Celine Emotional depth. Quiet strength. Protective AF. You're basically the group's mom-ager (with a dark backstory). Celine's love for her girls is unconditional, even when she's haunted by her own regrets. You lead with heart — and carry everyone else's feelings too. ♌ Leo — Rumi Star power. Passion. Secret insecurities. Main character energy? Say less. You're the fearless, fabulous leader of the group, even if you're secretly scared people will see through your shine. Rumi's confident yet human — just like you. ♍ Virgo — Zoey Anxious overachiever. Perfectionist. Big heart. You're the youngest in spirit, always working overtime to prove you're needed — when in reality, you're already irreplaceable. Like Zoey, you care deeply and try to solve everything, often with color-coded lists. ♎ Libra — The Healer Balanced. Wise. Emotionally intuitive. You're the calm voice of reason amidst the chaos, just like the Healer. Always seeing both sides, you're the spiritual glue who brings healing and harmony — even when no one else realizes they need it. ♏ Scorpio — Gwi-Ma Intense. Strategic. Lowkey terrifying. You're the villain everyone secretly roots for. Gwi-Ma is all about shadows, power moves, and psychological warfare — and you? You've already read everyone's weaknesses and are deciding how to use them. ♐ Sagittarius — The Host Energetic. Outgoing. Hilarious. Liza Koshy's character brings the fun chaos — and so do you. A Sagittarius thrives in the spotlight, keeps the energy high, and will crack a joke while saving the day. You're here for a good time and a dramatic finale. ♑ Capricorn — Idol Host Ambitious. Organized. Multi-talented. You'd definitely be the one hosting a variety show, running the backstage ops, and still managing to look iconic. Like Joel Kim Booster's fast-talking characters, you juggle it all — with a killer sense of humor. ♒ Aquarius — Zoey (Again, but different flavor) Offbeat. Creative. Deeply original. You don't follow — you invent. Like Zoey, you're trying to figure out where you fit, but that doesn't stop you from being a loyal weirdo with a heart of gold. Your ideas are wild — and often genius. ♓ Pisces — Romance Saja Dreamy. Emotional. Soft-core dramatic. Romance Saja is all about feelings, fantasy, and flair — and so are you, Pisces. You're always scripting love stories in your head, whether it's fighting demons or crushing hard on the villain. Now that you've found your demon-slaying alter ego, grab your glowstick and manifest your K-pop destiny. Just don't forget your mic — or your enchanted weapon.

Bobby Berk Says His ‘Queer Eye' Salary Was 'Basically Nothing'

Reality TV stardom is not for the weak. Just ask Bobby Berk, who recently revealed that Queer Eye paid 'basically nothing' for the first two seasons. In fact, he was making so little off the Netflix show, it actually hurt him financially. 'The first two seasons, I definitely lost money being on the show,' said the interior design expert during a recent appearance on Networth and Chill with Your Rich BFF podcast. 'Because, I mean, they were paying us basically nothing.' Bobby's assessment is tough, but fair when you consider the entertainment landscape. When the Fab Five—Bobby, Antoni Porowski, Tan France, Karamo Brown, and Jonathan Van Ness—they weren't paid like the stars they would become. In 2018, Variety reported that they were each paid $7,500 per episode for the first two seasons, which evens out to $60,000 per season—a far cry from the riches paid to stars of scripted series. But it wasn't so much the pay that was the problem, but the time commitment that cost Bobby money. 'The amount of money that I was losing from not running my company and being gone because we had to move away' also affected his bottom line, he said. 'We were gone for five months, and so half the year we were gone, and then we were on just constant press tours.' Queer Eye, of course, became an instant hit, and the stars were able to renegotiate for seasons 3 and 4, which is when Bobby says he probably 'broke even.' But even in the later seasons, Bobby said, the Fab 5 still weren't making that much money. 'To be frank, they never really paid us well. You know, compared to what they pay scripted stars, we made single digit percentage,' he said. 'Obviously, what it did, though, was open doors for working with brands, working with companies.' Bobby left Queer Eye after eight seasons, and while it sounds like he wishes they had been paid more, he's still grateful for the success of the show and the exposure it granted him and his business. Overall, he called the experience 'absolutely' worth it. 'It was tough the first few seasons, but the doors that it has opened for other things—absolutely,' he said. 'You can't pay for that type of exposure.'

The Bluebells to make Glastonbury debut after more than 40 years

In the 80s, Bobby Bluebell and other band members, including singer Ken McCluskey and his brother and drummer David McCluskey, graced the covers of teen magazines such as Smash Hits. Scots pop legends The Bluebells are to make their Glastonbury debut more than 40 years after they first shot to fame. In the 80s, Bobby Bluebell and other band members, including singer Ken McCluskey and his brother and drummer David McCluskey, graced the covers of teen magazines such as Smash Hits. ‌ They also regularly appeared on Top of the Pops. ‌ But it's only now as they hit state pension age they'll finally play the iconic music festival alongside the likes of Neil Young and Alanis Morissette. Bobby, 66, said: 'We are doing Glastonbury and we've never played Glastonbury before. So it's a real shock to be doing it. It's a great festival and a great crowd. It's something that's been on our bucket list. 'I'm 66. This is mental, but Paul McCartney is in his 80s, so there is no end to it. 'I'm way better than I was in 1984 and Ken's a better singer. 'It's our Indian summer and it's great to be back in the spotlight.' The Bluebells became an integral part of the Scottish pop scene in the early 1980s alongside the likes of Orange Juice, Aztec Camera, Del Amitri, Texas and Simple Minds. ‌ The city was awash with record label A&R men from London seeking the next big thing when Young at Heart charted at No8 in 1984. The song also shot to No1 in 1993 after it featured in a Volkswagen TV ad. ‌ Bobby, whose real name is Robert Hodgens, had co-written the hit with his girlfriend, Bananarama's Siobhan Fahey. The couple lived in London and regularly hung out at trendy nightclubs despite Bobby's geeky appearance and lack of fashion sense. Of the relationship, Bobby said: 'When I met Siobhan she was a shy person and I helped her come out of her shell. ‌ 'At that time, it was the New Romantic era, but I was walking about in a duffle coat and national health glasses. 'We were good together. We were a showbiz couple. 'The first song we wrote was Young At Heart so we obviously got off to a good start.' ‌ He added: 'My biggest introduction to London was when I left home and moved in with Siobhan. 'People like Kevin Rowland and Bananarama and Elvis Costello were all great friends. We'd go out together. 'But Glasgow had a better scene than London. ‌ ' The club music scene in Glasgow was as good as anywhere in the world, if not better. 'You couldn't be a wallflower in Glasgow. You'd get trampled on. 'I had gone to clubs when I was 13 or 14 on my own which was quite scary because there was a big gang scene in Glasgow and I looked quite geeky. ‌ 'I had to learn to overcome being shy. 'Siobhan and everybody I've met in a band has had to overcome their shyness. 'You've had no choice but to stand up on the stage and project.' Bobby said: 'I spoke to Siobhan last week. We are still great friends. I'd like to work with her again because I think, why are we not doing anything? I'll meet up with her again.' ‌ The Bluebells will be performing hit after hit at Glastonbury including Cath and I'm Falling. Also part of today's line-up is Belfast band Kneecap who will perform at 4pm on the West Holt stage. The trio are being welcomed by festival organiser Michael Eavis despite an Prime Minister, Keir Starmer claiming their appearance is 'problematic'. ‌ Bobby believes there aren't enough political acts in pop music who are willing to stand up and be counted for what they believe in, if anything. 'I'm not a fan of Kneecap's music but it is a dangerous path people are taking by trying to silence them because it is part of their act,' he said. 'Some rappers sing about the life they live and you have heavy metal bands with bats and blood. ‌ 'Kneecap have a point of view that is from their background of being a section of society that were oppressed and rebelling against their government. 'What is happening in Gaza is inexcusable and Kneecap are being pulled up simply for the fact that they are not agreeing with the status quo. 'Imagine that had been the other way around and we were speaking out in favour of innocent people being bombed. ‌ 'If you're telling me the most extreme thing in politics is Kneecap you should give up.' Though Kneecap were dropped from the TRNMT line-up, Bobby added: 'Why should the person who runs TRNSMT be the one to judge? What are they so frightened of? ‌ 'Is being anti-something enough to get you kicked off. I'd like to see the list of what is allowed and what isn't. 'They are saying the public can't make their own mind and will be brainwashed by it. 'I hate to say it but if you go to Ibrox or Parkhead every week you'll be charging half the population because people are singing songs that are much worse.'

Bobby Sherman, Teen Music and Television Star, Dead at 81

Bobby Sherman, the former teen star who appeared in Here Comes the Brides and recorded the Billboard Hot 100 hits 'Julie, Do You Love Me' and 'Little Woman,' has died. His wife, Brigitte Poublon Sherman, confirmed his death in a statement shared on social media by their family friend, actor John Stamos. Sherman was 81 years old. 'It is with the heaviest heart that I share the passing of my beloved husband, Bobby Sherman,' the statement reads. 'Bobby left this world holding my hand — just as he held up our life with love, courage, and unwavering grace through all 29 beautiful years of marriage. I was his Cinderella, and he was my prince charming. Even in his final days, he stayed strong for me. That's who Bobby was — brave, gentle, and full of light.' More from Rolling Stone Patrick Walden, Babyshambles Guitarist, Dead at 46 Ananda Lewis, Celebrated MTV VJ, Dead at 52 Brian Wilson, Beach Boys Co-Founder and Architect of Pop, Dead at 82 Brigitte did not share Sherman's cause of death. She celebrated his career, saying, 'known around the world for his music and acting, he brought joy to millions through songs like 'Julie, Do Ya Love Me,' 'Easy Come, Easy Go,' and 'Little Woman,' and through his beloved role in Here Come the Brides.' After Here Comes the Brides was cancelled in 1970, Sherman continued his career with guest appearances on The Mod Squad, The Love Boat, and Murder, She Wrote. He would later appear in the 1983's rock comedy Get Crazy. Brigitte recalled reading her husband letters he received from fans around the world as he rested. 'Words of love and gratitude that lifted his spirits and reminded him of how deeply he was cherished,' she said. 'He soaked up every word with that familiar sparkle in his eye. And yes, he still found time to crack well-timed jokes — Bobby had a wonderful, wicked sense of humor. It never left him. He could light up a room with a look, a quip, or one of his classic, one-liners.' When sharing the statement, Stamos wrote, 'From one ex teen idol, to another – rest in peace Bobby Sherman.' Sherman is survived by Brigitte, his two sons, Tyler and Christopher, as well as his six grandchildren. 'To those who truly knew him, Bobby was something much more,' Brigitte said. 'He was a man of service. He traded sold-out concerts and magazine covers for the back of an ambulance, becoming an EMT and a trainer with the LAPD. He saved lives. He showed us what real heroism looks like — quiet, selfless, and deeply human. He lived with integrity, gave without hesitation, and loved with his whole heart. And though our family feels his loss profoundly, we also feel the warmth of his legacy — his voice, his laughter, his music, his mission. Thank you to every fan who ever sang along, who ever wrote a letter, who ever sent love his way. He felt it.'

Bobby Berk Talks Queer Eye Salary, Losing Money

Despite what it might seem like, reality stars are often paid an absolute pittance for their appearances on hit TV shows. Exhibit 1,000: Bobby Berk on Queer Eye. For context, Bobby left school at 15 and worked his way up various homeware companies before launching his own business in 2006. His interior design practice followed in 2015, before Queer Eye hit three years later. The designer announced that he was leaving the hit Netflix series in 2023, later explaining that he'd initially thought that the cast had agreed to wrap up the show beforehand. "Mentally and emotionally, I thought we all moved on. I know I did, and I started planning other things," he explained, attributing his choice to leave to not wanting to put the "brakes on multiple other projects that are already in process." Yesterday, the Networth and Chill podcast published an interview with Bobby where he broke down his finances over the years. When asked if he "made a lot of money" doing Queer Eye, he replied, "[The] first two seasons, I definitely lost money being on the show." "They were paying us basically nothing," he continued, noting that there was also "the amount of money that I was losing from not running my company and being gone." "Seasons 3 and 4, I probably broke even. To be frank, they never really paid us well, compared to what they pay scripted stars. I mean, we made a single-digit percentage," the 43-year-old said. Of course, his only income wasn't from Netflix. He added, "Obviously, what it did was open up doors for working with brands and companies. I remember over the years, fans would get annoyed with the Fab Five because we were often promoting brands, 'So sick of this!' And we're like, 'Well, girl, we don't make money off the show. This is our form of income. How do you think we continue to do the show?'" You can listen to the full podcast interview here. Looking for more LGBTQ+ or Pride content?
