MESFIN FEKADU AP Music Writer In the 12 years since Lady Gaga dropped her first album, the singer has exceptionally shown that she knows how to create a killer album. "The Fame" was danceable and clever. "The Fame Monster" was an epic adventure into her darker mind. "Born This Way" brilliantly wove in elements of rock and house with her signature pop. Though she might have tripped over her disco ball on "ARTPOP," the album still had direction and character. And "Joanne" was a...

JAKE COYLE AP Film Writer NEW YORK (AP) - Kumail Nanjiani has a few names for quarantine life. He has divided time firmly between "pre-Hanks/Wilson" and "post-Hanks/Wilson," referring to the early COVID-19 diagnosis for Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson. And he has settled on calling the strange, bewildering days of lockdown "The Weirds." This applies to all the confusion and just plain odd parts of life since the pandemic began. Like when Nanjiani was on "Good Morning America" last...

Bob Garver Special to Valley News This past February, the South Korean film “Parasite” did something that no other foreign-language, foreign-produced “international” film had ever done: win the Oscar for Best Picture at the Academy Awards. Whether this victory counts as an “upset” is a matter of debate. I personally thought “1917” would take it, but what isn’t debatable is that the Academy made an unusually outside-the-box choice, perhaps to offset criticisms that t...
