Why Was Mr. Beast on 'Survivor 50'? His 'Super Beware Advantage' Explained

Mr. Beast was the latest celebrity to make a cameo on Survivor season 50. The YouTuber, 27, appeared during the Wednesday, April 29, episode of the CBS reality competition, where host Jeff Probst described him as the “single biggest YouTuber on planet Earth.” “You are the biggest thing in the world,” Probst, 64, told the internet star. “And for you to come and want to be a part of our little show is a really big deal.” Mr. Beast then shared that he’s a big fan of the show and unveiled the milestone season’s latest twist: the Mr. Beast Super Beware Advantage. However, the specifics of the twist were kept under wraps until that night’s Tribal Council, leaving the contestants in suspense — and on edge. “The psychological arc, the impact of the mere presence of Mr. Beast changed everything about how all of you think,” Probst told the cast after a tense Tribal Council meeting, pointing out that the mystery twist created a “fear of a known unknown” and “cognitive distortion.” ‘Beast...

Chickens Step In as Babysitters After Cat Gives Birth in Coop in Viral Video

A black cat picked a chicken coop nesting box as the spot to deliver her kittens — and the hens sharing that space decided to pitch in with the newborns. In a video posted by @farmer.jo.homesteading on Instagram, the cat gives birth to a litter of kittens in a nesting box right next to the chickens. The footage takes a turn that somehow makes the already heartwarming scene even sweeter: when the mother cat gets up and steps away from the kittens for a moment, the chickens are right there, stepping in. They gather close around the newborn kittens and seem to take over warming duty, sitting on them as if they were their own eggs. The original post was shared on April 9. It has since racked up over 27 million views and over 1 million likes on Instagram, drawing a massive response from viewers charmed by the interspecies teamwork. The Chickens Fill In for Mama Cat in Viral Video The video captures the mama cat delivering her kittens in the nesting box inside the chicken coop, with ...

Gone But Not Forgotten: Musicians We Lost in 2026

January 2026 started off with a cold, hard fact: Death is inevitable. The first major musician death to make the news this year was that of Jim McBride, the Nashville Songwriter Hall of Fame artist known for penning country hits alongside Alan Jackson; he died days into the new year on Jan. 6 at age 78. Among his most known songs that he collabed with the country star on were “Chasin’ That Neon Rainbow,”  “Someday,” “That’s All I Need to Know,” “(Who Says) You Can’t Have It All” and “Chattahoochee,” with the last song peaking at No. 48 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1993. Days later, on Jan. 10, Colombian singer-songwriter Yeison Jiménez passed away in a plane crash that took the lives of six people. He was 34. Deadheads were stunned the same day when a statement on Bob Weir’s Instagram account announced that the Grateful Dead founding member had died at 78 after beating lung cancer, but had “succumbed to underlying lung issues.” Another unexpected death of a celebrated artist wa...

Storage Wars' Dusty Riach Recalls Darrell Sheets’ Last ‘Odd’ Interaction

Image
Storage Wars star Dusty Riach is recalling former costar Darrell Sheets ’ last “odd” interaction before his untimely death . “It wasn’t the buying and selling that was odd. It was really the interaction,” Riach exclusively told Us Weekly on Sunday, April 26. “Because Darrell is not the type of person to just roll over on an offer. He was a fighter for the last dollar in any deal. And he was asking a pretty substantial amount of money for a deal that one of my friends was buying from him. And then my friend kind of shot him quite a large deficit off of what he was asking. And Darrell just was like, ‘Yeah, that’s great.’” Riach continued, “My friend was just like, ‘That’s kind of weird,’ but didn’t think anything of it at the time. For Darrell not to come back at you, it’s just kind of weird. I had no idea, and my friend hadn’t told me until after we found out what happened [to Sheets]. My friend said that it felt like he was tying up his affairs,” adding that Sheets even called...

Eva Longoria Reveals What She Misses About the U.S. After Move to Europe

Eva Longoria still feels homesick for a few things in the U.S. years after her move to Europe. “I miss my family, my Texas family,” Longoria, 51, told People in an interview published on Tuesday, April 21. “[And] good Mexican food. That’s what I miss. That’s what’s not in Europe, is good Mexican food.” Longoria was born and raised in Texas before moving to Los Angeles in her 20s to pursue her acting career.

Who Is Matt Kaplan? 5 Things to Know About Alex Cooper's Husband

“Call Her Daddy” podcast host Alex Cooper has been married to film producer Matt Kaplan , whom she calls “Mr. Sexy Zoom Man” on the podcast, since April 2024. The reason for the nickname isn’t just to protect their privacy — “Matt is so private, but he also loves the Daddy Gang,” Cooper told W Magazine in April 2023 about her husband’s reaction to her listeners — it’s also because the couple first met during a business Zoom meeting. Kaplan, who famously dated Ashley Olsen in the early 2000s, is the CEO of Ace Entertainment. His company has produced the To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before franchise and more hit movies. While Kaplan had walked down the aisle before, Cooper wasn’t certain she ever wanted to tie the knot . “Growing up, I never wanted to conform to something that society is telling us: to get married to a man and live happily ever after,” she explained to W . “So many marriages in my life are so unhealthy and unstable. A lot of people settle, and I refuse to do tha...
