Everything Kelsea Ballerini and Morgan Evans Have Said About Their Divorce

While fans of Kelsea Ballerini and Morgan Evans may have been caught off guard by their split , the country singers had seen the writing on the wall. “I think when there’s a big life decision like that, it’s not a sudden one,” the Tennessee native told  CBS Mornings  in October 2022 of what led to her divorce. “And there’s a lot that happens before that becomes public. So, I’m on my, like, active healing journey.” Ballerini added: “It’s not, like, volatile [between us], it just didn’t work and that sometimes is, like, a difficult narrative to get your head around when you’re like, ‘Oh, my gosh. This is a good person. And I’m a good person. And this is just no longer good anymore.’” The Grammy Award nominee and the Australia native — who wed in December 2017 — announced their decision to separate in August 2022. “Friends, I’ve always tried my best to share my life with you in a real and vulnerable way, while also protecting layers of my personal life as they unfold,” Ballerini w

How 'The Last of Us' Cast Compares to Their Video Game Counterparts: Photos

A very different kind of apocalypse. The Last of Us follows a group of survivors after a pandemic wipes out most of humanity, but it’s not a virus that causes the catastrophe — it’s a fungus. The culprit is cordyceps, a real fungus that in the show has evolved to infect humans, who become zombie-like after exposure. While minor characters come and go, the series focuses mainly on Joel ( Pedro Pascal ), a middle-aged survivor who is charged with protecting Ellie ( Bella Ramsey ), a teen girl who is seemingly immune to cordyceps. The sci-fi drama is based on the 2013 video game of the same name, which was written by Neil Druckmann . The Naughty Dog co-president is also a creator and executive producer of the HBO series, so he’s well-placed to ensure the show maintains the spirit of the game while also deviating where necessary. One of the biggest differentiations came in episode 3, “Long, Long Time,” which pulled back from Joel and Ellie’s story to focus on Bill ( Nick Offerman ) an

Brendan Fraser Claims He Nearly Choked to Death While Filming 'The Mummy'

Some movie and TV stars have hurt themselves attempting their own stunts … while others have suffered injuries through no fault of their own. In one of the scariest examples, Teen Wolf alum Dylan O’Brien was seriously injured on the set of Maze Runner: The Death Cure and needed half a year to recuperate — and even then he wasn’t sure he wanted to return to the production. “I had lost a lot of function, just in my daily routine,” the actor told Vulture in September 2017. “I wasn’t even at a point where I felt like I could handle social situations, let alone showing up and being responsible for work every day. Long hours on set, delivering a performance and carrying a movie … it just makes your palms sweat.” He continued: “Nothing inside of you wants to go back to that. It took a lot of deep searching past those gut instincts that I was having just because of the trauma that I experienced to realize that I did want to finish it.” Other actors can relate: Ruby Rose recently revea
