Ed Sheeran looks back on his controversial *Game of Thrones** *cameo with disappointment, but not surprise.

"I feel like I definitely ruffled some feathers being on *Game of Thrones*," he reflected on Wednesday's episode of Benny Blanco's new *Friends Keep Secrets** *podcast.

Sheeran's brief appearance on the gritty fantasy series' season 7 opener stoked a heated cycle of online discourse — despite the fact that by 2017, many musicians had made similar cameos to relatively little fanfare. Now with the benefit of nearly a decade of hindsight, Sheeran thinks he knows what really went down.

"What I said is, 'People love that show. If anyone gets asked to be in that show, it's an instant yes,'" Sheeran reflected. "I said yes. I enjoyed doing it."

But why the pushback?

"Members of Coldplay [were] at the Red Wedding. [Gary Lightbody] from Snow Patrol's in there. Chris Stapleton's in it as like a White Walker," Sheeran pointed out to Blanco and cohosts Dave "Lil Dicky" Burd and Kristin Batalucco,

Sheeran identified two primary reasons why his brief appearance as a Lannister soldier singing beside a campfire annoyed some fans — and even some critics.

"I think at the time I was very omnipresent and just everywhere. So, I think it was quite jarring," he said. But he also explained that debacles like those "happen quite a lot in my career. I just get s‑‑‑ on for things."

It wasn't just Chris Stapleton and members of Coldplay and Snow Patrol who walked Westeros before Sheeran. The series had practically become Coachella by the time the penultimate season rolled around, with members of Sigur Rós, Of Monsters and Men, and Mastodon all turning up as soldiers or merchants or, most often, musicians.

But Sheeran was indeed at the peak of his fame when he appeared in the episode "Dragonstone" in July 2017. He'd released his biggest album to date, *Divide*, just four months before, and its massive lead single, "Shape of You," was everywhere.

The English musician explained on a 2021 episode of the *Armchair Expert *podcast that his cameo was actually meant as a gift to *GOT *actress Maisie Williams, who was a fan of Sheeran's music.

Sophie Turner accidentally spoiled the surprise by divulging the cameo casting news at Comic-Con that year — while seated next to Williams. But Sheeran said he was still able to enjoy the production experience, however "muddied" the memory became amid the backlash that followed.

Jennifer Lopez is reflecting on her most recent split with Ben Affleck, sharing that she "had to stop everything" in order to get her life back in order.

The "On the Floor" singer, 56, recently opened up about her life after Bennifer 2.0 ahead of her new Las Vegas residency. She said that she's in her "happy era" and is happy to be alone. However, it took some time to heal from her divorce.

"I had to stop everything and I took a year off," she told *Good Morning America.* "I canceled tours. I decided to just be home and sit in what had happened without running away from it through work, through another person, through anything. Just sit."

In 2024, Lopez filed for divorce from Affleck after two years of marriage. The two had married about 20 years after their first high-profile engagement ended in 2004. Shortly before announcing the split, the "Jenny From the Block" singer canceled her summer tour, saying she would be "taking time off to be with her children, family and close friends."

Lopez previously opened up about how the breakup was "the best thing that ever happened to me" because it forced her to grow. She shared more insight on her self-reflection with *GMA.*

"I was just at a point where I was like, 'What is going on with you?'" she said. "Because I couldn't blame anybody else. Because I don't think that that's where the lesson is. And so, I really wanted to figure myself out."

After developing a reputation as a lover girl, J.Lo said she feels "free" on her own. She said she's not interested in dating or pursuing a new relationship, which is a major step for her because she always feared being alone.

"I've always had a boyfriend," she said. "There was always kind of, like, someone in my life and so many other things that I felt like were out of my control. I've gotten to the point where I really trust myself and appreciate myself a little bit more instead of being so hard on myself all the time."

For now, she is focused on her Las Vegas shows and celebrating her children graduating high school. Her twins Maximilian David Muñiz and Emme Maribel Muñiz, whom she shares with ex-husband Marc Anthony, recently turned 18 and will be attending college, she said.

"I am happy, and I am healthy, and I'm grateful," J.Lo said. "That's who I am today. And I'm surrounded by love, which is the best part."

Powerful Kona Low Set To Bring Flooding Rainfall, Gusty Winds And Potential Blizzard Conditions To Hawaii Through This Weekend Jonathan Belles Fri, March 13, 2026 at 9:32 AM UTC 0 A powerful system called a Kona storm will bring flooding rainfall, strong winds, some severe thunderstorms, even mountain summit blizzard conditions to Hawaii into this weekend. Flood and high wind watches are in effect throughout Hawaii. And, yes, winter alerts are posted for the summits of the Big Island above 12,000 feet elevation.

Powerful Kona Low Set To Bring Flooding Rainfall, Gusty Winds And Potential Blizzard Conditions To Hawaii Through This Weekend

Jonathan Belles Fri, March 13, 2026 at 9:32 AM UTC

A powerful system called a Kona storm will bring flooding rainfall, strong winds, some severe thunderstorms, even mountain summit blizzard conditions to Hawaii into this weekend.

Flood and high wind watches are in effect throughout Hawaii. And, yes, winter alerts are posted for the summits of the Big Island above 12,000 feet elevation.

A potent low pressure system located some 1500 miles northwest of Kauai is pulling deep tropical moisture northeastward across the island chain.

Up to 6 inches of rain has already fallen in leeward (or southern) Kauai, and rivers rose on Tuesday in response to the heavy rainfall.

Forecast Timing And Threats

Unfortunately, this Kona low will remain relatively parked in place into the weekend, continuing to pump moisture into the state.

Heavy rain will continue to become more widespread throughout the islands on Friday with major impacts possible on every island at times through Sunday.

Flash flooding is the greatest threat from this storm, with most islands picking up at least four inches of additional rain everywhere except the north coast of the Big Island. The heaviest rainfall totals should occur on the south- or southwest-facing coasts and mountain slopes. Some places could see more than 18 inches of additional rain.

A few severe thunderstorms are possible on Friday or Saturday with damaging winds and large hail. Unusually conducive conditions for Hawaii standards are expected to come together for severe weather.

Gusty and potentially damaging winds are possible during this period of peak impact. Winds in the lower elevations could exceed 50 mph, but the Big Island volcanic summits could see gusts over 100 mph. These gusty winds below the tree line could cause tree limbs to break and block roadways and cause some power outages.

The summits on the Big Island could also see significant winter impacts, including blowing snow and more than a foot of accumulation.

Hurricane force winds are possible over the coastal waters and choppy waters are a guarantee.

What Is A Kona Low?

Kona lows are storm systems that set up to the west or northwest of the islands and draw up lots of moisture from the south, creating messy and sometimes dangerous conditions. They can bring widespread heavy rain to the islands with the threat of flash flooding, as well as damaging, gusty winds.

This is a phenomenon that occurs most often in January, although it can happen anytime between October and May.

This is a reversal from typical Hawaii weather.

The trade winds across Hawaii typically blow from the northeast. That means windward areas, generally the northeast sides of the islands, typically see more showers. On the Big Island, Hilo is the best example of this. They average a whopping 120.39 inches of rain a year.

But when a Kona storm moves in, it will bring winds from the southwest or "kona" side (or southwest side) of the islands. It's these storms that soak normally drier locations in the islands, including Honolulu and the Kona coast of the Big Island. Honolulu averages only 16.41 inches of rain a year.

Travel Problems Over The Next Few Days

The end of the week will bring better travel weather for most, but you'll want to check ahead if you're traveling through the northern tier. A series of storm systems could cause issues from Washington To Maine on Friday.

Delays are possible in Seattle, Milwaukee, Detroit and Boston.

If you're traveling into, out of or through the Great Lakes or Midwest this weekend, you might want to reschedule. A growing storm system will likely delay you — especially in places like Chicago, Minneapolis, Kansas City and St. Louis. Road conditions will continue to grow more hazardous through the weekend.

Rain and thunderstorms are expected to become more severe Sunday night, meaning delays are possible in MIami, Atlanta, New Orleans, Raleigh, New York, Detroit and Nashville, in addition to the cities listed above.

This system will continue to impact travel for much of the East on Monday.

However, the good news is that the weather will be much more calm after the storm moves off the East Coast next week, including for St. Patrick's Day.

March 13 (Reuters) - U.S. President Trump told G7 leaders in a virtual ‌meeting on Wednesday that Iran ‌is "about to surrender," Axios reported on Friday citing three officials from G7 countries briefed on the contents of the call.

According to the report, Trump told allies that ‌he "got rid ⁠of a cancer that was threatening us all," while boasting ⁠about the results of Operation "Epic Fury" on the G7 call Wednesday morning.

Trump said that "nobody knows who is the leader, so ‌there is no one that can announce surrender," Axios reported.

The White House did not immediately respond to a request for comment outside regular business hours.

Trump ‌on Friday derided Iran's leaders as "deranged scumbags" and said it was his great honor ‌to kill them as the war in the Middle East approached the two-week mark with heavy exchanges of drone ‌and missile strikes across the region.
