Linkin Park co-founder Joe Hahn has opened up about the challenges behind the band’s comeback, which he also chronicles in the upcoming documentary Unshatter, hitting theaters September 30.

Directed by Joe Hahn, Unshatter chronicles the beloved rock band's reformation in 2022 after the death of their singer Chester Bennington in 2017. Unshatter follows the band's return, the introduction of new co-vocalist Emily Armstrong and drummer Colin Brittain and features extensive live footage from their massive, sold-out concert in São Paulo.

Ahead of Unshatter's release, Joe Hahn has opened up about the criticism behind the band's comeback in an interview with BBC News. Hahn pointed out that people often form fixed expectations about what Linkin Park should represent and how far the band can evolve. However, he believes giving the group room to experiment and evolve naturally is ultimately what allows something meaningful to emerge. Check out his full comments:

"I think the criticisms come from different places...So based on the history and the great things that we've done, people take that as their own. So it's easy for people to formulate this idea of what the band is, what it should be and what it's allowed to do. But when it comes down to it, you have to let things be and then something great will come out of it."

Linkin Park’s Joe Hahn reflects on the origins of Unshatter

Linkin Park fans will get a peek behind the curtain in Unshatter, which chronicles the band's reformation, from their 2022 recording sessions for their eighth studio album (and first with Armstrong and Brittain) From Zero to the historic São Paulo show, along with interviews with the band members.

Naturally, the band's comeback garnered mixed reactions from fans, but Hahn wanted to document their story from the inside. DJ/turntablist Joe Hahn has not only played synthesizer and turntables in the band since 1996 but is also the creative directing genius behind music videos like "Somewhere I Belong" and "Numb." Unshatter gave Hahn an outlet to document the friendships, creative process, and uncertainty behind one of rock music's most closely watched comebacks.

The title of the upcoming Linkin Park documentary honours the band's failed attempts to reunite. Joe Hahn believed the band was eager to reform, but they were broken and needed to heal their scars before getting back together. This is how he explained the title of his upcoming film:

"The important part of it all is to not completely fix it, but have some kind of repair and not be afraid to show your scars...I think that's just something that we thought of along the way and then the title of the film, Unshatter, which was one of our songs. I think that was just part of our ethos while making the music. So, it just seemed very appropriate to name the film that."

Joe Hahn calls Emily Armstrong the 'missing ingredient' in Linkin Park

Following the tragic passing of Chester Bennington in 2017, From Zero marks a new chapter for Linkin Park, with new vocalist Emily Armstrong.Unshatter will look at Armstrong's introduction to the band and how she fit in like a missing piece of the puzzle.

Speaking with BBC News, Joe Hahn praised the band's new vocalist and reflected that she instantly fit in with the group. The band members saw a spark in Armstrong, which mirrored Chester's and Hahn felt like she was the 'missing ingredient' that would make Linkin Park whole again. Check out his comments:

"There's like a certain energy that we have, and hers {Emily} is like more dynamic in a way that's very similar to Chester. They're two different people. And then once we saw that spark, we just gravitated towards it... And then we're like, okay, this is a real missing ingredient in what we're doing."

Linkin Park: Unshatter is scheduled to be released in theatres on September 30.

Sydney Sweeney has offered a cryptic response to the ongoing backlash over her controversial sports ad.

The actress has faced fierce criticism over Novig’s provocative “Just Sports” campaign, which features her using sports equipment to cover her body while promoting the prediction platform.

Female athletes were among the loudest voices calling out the ad, arguing that it sent the wrong message about women and their place in sports.

“For every act of micro feminism I do Sydney Sweeney sets feminism 100 years back,” fumed one netizen.

Sydney Sweeney is facing intense backlash from female athletes and sports figures over her highly provocative Novig campaign

Novig

Sydney found herself at the center of a growing controversy after appearing in Novig’s new campaign, which launched last week on September 9.

The actress is a strategic partner and equity holder in the sports prediction platform, making the campaign more than a typical celebrity endorsement.

In the ad, she appears nearly unclothed, using various pieces of sports equipment to cover herself.

At different points, Sweeney is seen perched on a basketball hoop while spinning a ball, straddling a bench with two footballs covering her chest, and using a tennis racket to cover her backside.

Other scenes feature her wearing goalie gloves and shoulder pads as makeshift shields.

The campaign’s tagline centers on the idea that Novig focuses exclusively on sports.

In the ad, Sydney says, “Novig is… just sports. So they wanted a show? Just sports. No betting on wars or d**ths and no politics. Just you, your takes, and sports.”

Within days, criticism began spreading online, with female athletes and sports media figures arguing that the campaign s**ualized women in a space where many have spent years fighting to be recognized for their athletic ability.

Four-time Australian Olympic swimming champion Ariarne Titmus described the campaign as “a kick in the face” to female athletes.

Meanwhile, Australian world champion boxer Skye Nicolson argued that there is a “vast difference between looking ‘s*xy’ because you do sport compared to using s*x to sell ‘sport.’”

She first shared a sponsored image from her Novig campaign with the caption, “It’s game dayy.”

American gymnast Gracie Kramer shared a montage of herself training and competing, alongside the caption, “Idk what Sydney Sweeney was doing, but this is what a woman in sport looks like.”

As the controversy intensified, Sweeney shared a series of Instagram Stories on Sunday, September 13.

The Eden star then shared images of famous athletes who had previously appeared completely or partially unclothed in ESPN Magazine’s Body Issue.

The images included Serena Williams, Ronda Rousey, Sue Bird, Megan Rapinoe, and Caroline Wozniacki, as well as male athletes including Myles Garrett, Rob Gronkowski, and Karl-Anthony Towns.

She also shared an image featuring Jason Kelce and Philadelphia Eagles offensive linemen.

Sydney, however, never explicitly explained why she was sharing the photographs, though the timing made them seem like a response to the criticism surrounding her own campaign.

But her apparent response did little to quiet the backlash, as social media users flooded her Instagram posts with disappointed and angry comments.

One netizen wrote, “As a former athlete and a woman who has personally experienced s**ualized comments, I’m genuinely disgusted and disappointed by this campaign.”

Another user added, “We’ve spent years fighting to be seen and respected for our talent, strength and achievements, not reduced to our bodies…”

One comment read, “I’m sorry, but this is NOT what women look like in sports…. Setting women in sports back 30 years at a time.”

Novig CEO and founder Jacob Fortinsky has defended the campaign, saying Sydney herself chose to pose unclothed.

He also suggested that the controversy has achieved one of the campaign’s key goals by putting Novig at the center of a national conversation.

According to Front Office Sports, Jacob recalled Sweeney saying, “I’m uncomfortable with other platforms that have markets on what color underwear I’m going to wear,” before adding, “There’s something clean about sports.”

He added, “Sydney is great at captivating audiences and being the center of attention. In some sense, it forces us into the national discourse.”

“The ad itself is also SO GROSS, she’s so hypersexualized. Can’t understand why she did that to her career,” one netizen wrote

Josh and Catie of '90 Day Fiancé' at the Tell All - TLC

After 18 episodes, the 90 Day Fiancé Season 12 Tell All is ready to rumble. Now that all seven of the Season 12 couples have officially met, we’ve got your full recap of everything that went down during Part 1 of the explosive three-episode special.

During Part 1 of the Tell All, Shaun Robinson welcomed all of the Season 12 cast members onto the stage, including Marissa and Edward, Mallorie and Rasit, Shea and Anabelle, Debby and Mido, Catie and Josh, Thomas and Paula, and Ashia. Maxwell, who has yet to receive his visa, attended the Tell All via video call. The episode mostly focused on three couples, including Catie and Josh, who stole the show with a major bombshell, which left Catie fleeing the stage in tears.

Edward and Marissa’s ex-husband are beefing

Right off the bat, Edward confessed that he and Marissa have been having some issues, the biggest being her ex-husband, Michael. Edward confessed, “He’s very jealous, and I’m not okay.”

Later in the episode, Marissa revealed that tensions have continued to rise between Michael and Edward as he’s gotten more involved in their sons’ lives. Apparently, Michael “threatened to fistfight” Edward at one of their sons’ baseball games in front of other parents and children.

During Marissa, Edward, and the kids’ trip to Florida, Michael texted Marissa a string of nasty texts about their relationship (see below). Now, he’s been banned from their house, and the lock codes have been changed.

Rasit and Brandon don’t get along… again

Didn’t we clear this one up? While we saw Rasit and Brandon, Mallorie’s ex-fling turned close friend, make amends at their wedding, Rasit told the rest of the cast that he doesn’t trust Brandon. Looks like they’re going to have some explaining to do when Brandon takes the stage.

Nobody likes Mido

Before the couples could get on stage, multiple stars confessed they didn’t like Mido, including Edward and Rasit. During a conversation with Mido, Rasit admitted, “I can’t trust you, really.” In response, Mido said, “You don’t know me to trust or no.” In Rasit’s opinion, Mido is “fake.”

Mido later told viewers, “The other couples in the Tell All judge me from video. So, I think they saw me like a bad guy or something… Talk every night, ‘Mido is a bad guy.’ I am success every day.”

Later, Catie confessed, “I think Mido sucks. I think he’s the biggest a**hole ever. But I think he’s really hot. He looks like a glam version of Josh.”

Catie hasn’t been faithful

According to Josh, Catie has not been 100% faithful since they got married. On New Year’s Eve, Catie made out with three people, including an older man and a woman. When the rest of the cast defended Josh, saying he’s a really nice guy, Catie responded, “He’s not that nice.” The second her drinking habits were brought up, Catie started to cry and became worried that everyone thinks she is a bad person.

Towards the end of the episode, Catie’s friend Danika told the rest of the cast that Catie claimed she had a “crush” on one of the guys at the NYE party. Josh stopped her while she was heading to the bathroom with her crush after they kissed. When asked what would have happened if she wasn’t stopped on the way to the bathroom, she responded, “I don’t know.”

Maxwell had issues getting a visa

For the second time, Maxwell and Ashia have been kept apart due to visa issues. We haven’t heard too much about their post-season story yet, but their update is coming soon.

Paula got a Green Card and immediately flew home

According to Thomas, Paula got her Green Card and traveled back to Brazil to visit her family for her birthday. Right now, Paula, Edward, and Josh have all revealed that they got their Green Cards.

Edward got a job where he can speak Spanish

Edward was thrilled to talk about his new job at a warehouse. There, he’s found a huge community of people from the Dominican Republic like him, where he can comfortably speak Spanish.

This sparked a conversation about their language barrier, and Marissa questioned how speaking Spanish at work would help him improve his English. Coming under fire for comments she made about Edward’s intelligence, Marissa claimed, “I don’t speak that because he doesn’t speak English [that] he is less than me… I was really stressed and really overwhelmed about how different our lives are.”

Edward got candid about wanting kids

It’s clear that Edward and Marissa’s conversation about having kids together is far from over. Amid the ongoing tension between Edward and Michael, Edward has also realized that being a stepdad may not be as fulfilling as raising kids from birth. Now, he and Marissa are talking about surrogacy, which is not currently an option financially.

Rasit gave Thomas a perfume-y hug

By far the biggest feud during the first part of the Tell All was between Rasit and Thomas. After finding out Thomas was allergic to fragrances, Rasit put on a ton of perfume and gave him a massive hug, which led to Thomas changing his shirt. Thomas’ massive — and lowkey valid — reaction caused the rest of the cast to turn on him. Even Paula didn’t stand up for him.

Based on the preview for the next episode, it looks like this feud is far from over. According to Catie, she would not make out with Thomas.

Anabelle and Allison don’t get along… again

Anabelle’s been making lots of Filipino friends in Kentucky. However, while Anabelle and Allison made amends before her wedding day, they are no longer on good terms. Allison claimed, “She’s great with my kids, so I like that, but we definitely have some issues still.” According to Allison, Anabelle comes across as rude and hasn’t adjusted to their way of life. When they spend time at home with her, Anabelle sits on her phone. According to Anabelle, “[Allison’s] very cruel now.”

Shea’s ex-wife called him out

Nicole hit the stage to “let the world know, [Shea’s] not a faithful man.” This led to a major argument between Allison and her former step-mom, Nicole. Still, Shea confessed to crossing the line while Anabelle was not physically beside him. Nicole also played audio of Shea telling her that he kept photos of her in lingerie and hid them from Anabelle. According to Shea, he no longer has the pictures.

Josh rents an office to have space from Catie

While Josh hasn’t entirely figured out his career path, he has started renting an office space for $800 a month. When asked why he needed the extra space, he replied, “Well, I mean, it’s Catie. I needed to get away.” As Catie put it, “I think that’s bulls**t.” Later, he explained, “I think we’ve lost our spark.”

After watching a scene from earlier in the season, where Catie drunkenly tried to make out with her friend, Ryan, in front of Josh, the rest of the cast told her that she was “not mature enough” to be married. Catie asked Josh, “Why don’t you dump me?”

In the last few minutes of Part 1, Marissa asked Catie whether she wanted to be married. She fired back, “I don’t know. I can do whatever I want. I don’t have to listen to [Josh]! I just want to be young and live my life.” She then told Josh, “I don’t enjoy being together. Sorry. I think I’d do better on my own.” Then, Catie stormed off the stage in tears.

Jaclyn Smith opened up about her nearly 30-year marriage to Brad Allen at a recent 92NYevent

She said “the greatest love comes when you’re not looking for it”

The Charlie’s Angels actress first connected with Allen, a cardiothoracic surgeon, when her father was being treated for a heart condition at the University of Illinois at Chicago Medical Center

Jaclyn Smith is reflecting on her decades-long love story with her husband, Brad Allen.

The Charlie’s Angels actress, 80, opened up about her marriage to Allen, a cardiothoracic surgeon, during a conversation with writer Ada Calhoun for The 92nd Street Y in New York City on Wednesday, Sept. 9. Smith, who had previously been married three times before meeting Allen, shared her belief that “the greatest love comes when you’re not looking for it.”

She first connected with Allen when her father was being treated for a heart condition at the University of Illinois at Chicago Medical Center. The pair dated for seven years before tying the knot in Los Angeles on Oct. 11, 1997.

“He operated on my dad, and I never thought in a million years that this would be the love of my life,” Smith said. “So you never know, right? You never know when that person comes. … He’s probably out there somewhere.”

The Adventurers star recalled her first impressions of Allen, telling the audience, “I looked at him, and he looked like all the guys I grew up with, very clean-cut and young, and he was going to operate on my dad, and I thought, ‘He’s too young.’ But Daddy came out of that operation with flying colors.”

Smith — whose new memoir, I Once Knew a Guy Named Charlie, was published on Sept. 8 — shared how she and Allen took things slow in their relationship.

“We lived apart for 17 years. And unlike the other marriages where I just said, ‘Hey, I’m going for it,’ we dated seven years before I said ‘I do’ — but it was a three-way decision. Gaston and Spencer Margaret were in on this one,” she said, referring to her two children, whom she welcomed with her third husband, British director and cinematographer Tony Richmond. “So he had to win them over, and he did.”

She added of Allen, “He’s an incredible stepfather — the best I could ever dream of. Thank you, Brad.”

Last year, Smith posted a playful Q&A video with Allen on Instagram, and they answered a fan question: “What is your relationship advice for a healthy marriage?”

“What makes a good marriage is a good wife and a husband who knows to say, ‘I’m sorry,’ and, ‘Yes, ma’am, you were right,’ ” Allen said, prompting Smith to begin giggling.

As the District star continued to laugh, she said, “See how smart he is? You know, he hugs and kisses me all day long. So, men out there, if you tune in, do it!”

Smith went on to tell her fans that she and Allen are “opposites.”

“Opposites do attract,” she insisted. “The only thing that we see the same is our morals and our values.”

Allen then responded with a smile, “And Jaclyn is the perfect wife — we see that the same way also.”

“That is true!” Smith laughingly replied.
