Netflix recently released the second season of its German historical drama series, The Empress, which has made fans increasingly curious about who the series is based on, when it is set, and if it is based on a true story and real events. This series is helmed by Katharina Eyssen, whose previous credits include The Girl With Nine Legs and Holiday Secrets.

Without further delay, here are all your questions about The Empress answered.

Who is the Netflix’s The Empress about?

Netflix’s The Empress is about Empress Elisabeth ‘Sisi’ Von Wittelsbach, the wife of Emperor Franz Joseph of the Austrian Empire.

Empress Elisabeth was born into the royal Bavarian House of Wittlesbach on December 24, 1837. She was known for her rebellious and “free-minded” attitude and often explored the countryside and partook in creative activities, as encouraged by her parents. Elisabeth was later crowned the Queen of Hungary on June 8, 1967.

The Austrian monarch nurtured popularity amongst the common folk. Reportedly, she was often the topic of gossip due to her habits of smoking, riding, and exercising, and her unusual behavior when it came to court customs. (via Tatler)

Elisabeth was assassinated by Italian anarchist Luigi Lucheni. He stabbed her, while she was on a trip to Switzerland, resulting in her death on September 10, 1898.

When is The Empress set?

The Empress is set in the 1850s.

The Netflix series documents several years of Empress Elisabeth’s life in 19th-century Austria. The first season of the show mainly takes place in 1853. Meanwhile, the recently released sophomore season picks up three years later in 1856 and spans until 1858.

Is The Empress based on a true story and real events?

The Empress is mostly based on a true story but blends real events with fiction.

For instance, Emperor Franz Joseph chose to marry Elisabeth over her sister Helene (whom he was originally expected to marry), as confirmed in history. However, the depiction of their growing relationship varies.

In the series, Elisabeth becomes attracted to Franz prior to their marriage. Albeit, according to historical records, he fell in love with her instantly, but she reportedly initially did not like him, even as she married him. Instead, Elisabeth grew to love Franz after they spent time together. (via The World of the Habsburgs)

In the wake of a recent video controversy surrounding Billboard and Taylor Swift, the magazine’s Chief Brand Officer (CBO) and exec Dana Droppo deactivated her X (formerly Twitter) account. This surprising development has intrigued many netizens who wish to learn more about Droppo’s sudden decision and its relation to the Taylor Swift controversy.

Here is why Billboard executive and CBO Dana Droppo deactivated her X account.

Here’s why Billboard exec Dana Droppo deactivated her X (Twitter)

Dana Droppo deactivated her X (Twitter) very likely because of the immense fan backlash she was receiving from fans. She has shut down her account without giving a notice.

This backlash happened after fans unearthed old tweets of Droppo and circulated them online. Here, she said inappropriate, insulting and hateful things about Taylor Swift.

In one of her old tweets, Droppo called Swift “the new Jennifer Aniston.” She also used the hashtags #CantKeepAMan, #Loser, and #WhatsAWomanGoodFor, referencing the “All Too Well” singer’s extensive relationship history, which includes names like Harry Styles.

Moreover, in another tweet, the Billboard exec claimed that Swift sold a dog to Michael Vick. She added that the singer now hated dogs, Tina Fey, and Amy Poehler. Furthermore, Droppo compared Swift to Kanye West in one tweet, where she said Swift said “shut the f*** up,” when One Direction went on stage during the 2009 VMAs.

Danna Droppo said demeaning things not only about Taylor Swift but also about other singers like Rihanna. In one tweet, she even claimed that TV personality Evelyn Lozada was better than Rihanna. Additionally, she made an inappropriate comment about Rihanna’s v****a by saying it would be “too deep” after childbirth.

The Billboard exec has also made her Instagram handle private. However, fans took notice of Droppo’s deactivation of her X account and continued bashing her online. Moreover, some even called for her resignation and firing from the magazine.

Moana 2 featured an abundance of songs for fans to enjoy. Due to this, many are wondering who wrote Moana 2’s music. Did Lin-Manuel Miranda write the film’s music? Did some other writers contribute to it?

Here is what we have learned on the topic.

Who wrote the music in Moana 2?

Moana 2’s music was written by Abigail Barlow and Emily Bear.

Barlow and Bear are known for having written The Unofficial Bridgerton Musical, which had gone viral on TikTok and won the 2022 Grammy Award for Best Musical Theater Album. They also wrote Mexican Pizza: The Musical for Taco Bell.

However, Barlow and Bear were mentored by Miranda on Moana 2’s songwriting. They confirmed this in an interview with ABC News. “He was really really helpful, especially in the inception when we decided to set sail,” Barlow said. She also mentioned that Miranda had given her true rhyme and musical theater storytelling books to help in the process.

“We reached out for some advice a few times!,” Bear added, mentioning that Miranda was only “a facetime call away.”

Why Lin-Manuel Miranda didn’t write Moana 2’s music

It is unclear why Lin-Manuel Miranda did not write Moana 2’s music.

However, it is theorized that Miranda was busy working on the songs for Mufasa: The Lion King, scheduled to hit theaters on December 20. This explains why he could not contribute to the Moana sequel’s songs.

Despite this, Miranda is still attached to the Moana franchise. Dwayne Johnson confirmed in an interview with Entertainment Tonight earlier this year, that the Tick, Tick…Boom! director will be involved in writing the songs for Moana’s live-action remake, set to release in 2026, and where Johnson will reprise his role as Maui.

Moana 2 is currently playing in theaters. Auli’i Cravalho, Dwayne Johnson, Hualalai Chung, Rose Matafeo, Awhimai Fraser, and David Fane make up the film’s core cast.

Taylor Swift‘s boyfriend Travis Kelce recently revealed which song of hers is his favorite in an episode of the New Heights podcast. Accordingly, fans are wondering which song it is. Is it one of Swift’s songs from her Eras Tour setlists?

Here is everything that fans need to know.

Travis Kelce talks about his favorite Taylor Swift song

In a new bonus episode of the New Heights podcast, Travis Kelce revealed that his favorite Taylor Swift song is “Death By a Thousand Cuts.” He said that he had “learned to absolutely love” the track. Moreover, Kelce mentioned that he started loving the song after seeing Swift perform it at a 2019 Desk Concert by NPR (National Public Radio).

“Death by a Thousand Cuts,” is the tenth track of Swift’s seventh studio album, Lover, which was her first album under Republic Records. It was also one of the surprise songs she had performed on her Eras Tour.

Furthermore, Kelce also mentioned several of Swift’s other songs that he deeply enjoyed. These were “Blank Space,” the second track of her album 1989. He claimed that this was a song he would listen to “forever.” “It’s just unbelievable, everything about it,” he added.

Kelce also mentioned “So High School” and “The Alchemy,” the latter two being a part of her latest album The Tortured Poets Department. He also mentioned “Cowboy Like Me,” which is from Swift’s Evermore album, released in 2020.

“So High School” and “The Alchemy” are believed by many fans to be about Swift and Kelce’s relationship. This is because both songs contain lyrics alluding to Kelce’s profession as the Kansas City Chiefs’ tight-end.

Meanwhile, Jason Kelce mentioned that his favorite Taylor Swift song was “I Can Do It With A Broken Heart.”

Swift is next scheduled to perform three shows in Vancouver’s BC Place stadium between December 6-8, 2024. These will be the final shows wrapping up her long-running Eras Tour.

A newly released featurette for Sonic the Hedgehog 3 has made fans wonder whether Super Shadow will appear in the film. The featurette contained a shot that seemed to tease a possible appearance. The upcoming threequel will see Sonic and his allies, including Dr. Robotnik, go up against Shadow, a dangerous and powerful hedgehog with a mysterious past.

Here is what we know on the matter.

Will Super Shadow appear in Sonic the Hedgehog 3?

It is unconfirmed if Super Shadow will appear in Sonic the Hedgehog 3.

However, at the 0:44 mark in a recent promotional featurette for the film, talking about Keanu Reeves’ Shadow the Hedgehog, two bright yellow dots were seen flying towards the Space Colony ARK, which is preparing to fire a laser to decimate Earth. Fans familiar with the games, particularly Sonic Adventure 2, believe those two yellow dots to be none other than Super Sonic and Super Shadow.

Furthermore, one of the promotional spots for the film saw both Sonic and Shadow reach for the Chaos Emeralds. As established in the Sonic universe, Shadow-like Sonic can achieve a Super form using the Chaos Emeralds. Thus, it is likely that at some point in the film, Shadow will get his hands on the Emeralds and use them to turn into Super Shadow.

Super Sonic first appears in Sonic the Hedgehog 2. At the end of the film, Sonic achieves this form to destroy a robot created by Dr. Robotnik.

Sonic the Hedgehog 3 drops in theaters on December 20. Jeff Fowler reprises his role as director after having helmed the first two films. Pat Casey, Josh Miller, and John Whittington contributed to the screenplay. Casey and Miller also wrote the story. Hitoshi Okuno, Neal H. Moritz, Toby Ascher, and Toru Nakahara produced the film.

The film’s cast comprises Ben Schwartz, Jim Carrey, Idris Elba, Keanu Reeves, Colleen O’Shaughnessey, James Marsden, Tika Sumpter, Alyla Browne, Shemar Moore, Lee Majdoub, and Krysten Ritter.

A new trend called “We Listen, We Don’t Judge” has been going viral on TikTok. Many social media users are participating in this trend and sharing their deeply personal experiences on the video-sharing platform. This has intrigued a lot of netizens, who wish to learn where the “We Listen, We Don’t Judge” trend came from and what it means.

So what is this new trend? Here is the explanation behind the same.

‘We Listen, We Don’t Judge’ TikTok trend explained

The “We Listen, We Don’t Judge” trend typically involves two users, who are either friends or are a couple. They sit next to each other, say the aforementioned words in unison, and take turns sharing deep secrets or confessions. The sharer of the secret/confession surprises the listener, who isn’t allowed to judge, despite how they may feel about what they learned.

Viewers witnessing the trend and the participants performing it have found it to be quite hilarious. For example, popular TikTok star @mmmjoemele performed the trend with his girlfriend. His video has racked up over 7 million views as of writing.

Check out the video below:

In this video, Joe Mele admits to his girlfriend that on the day they had their first date, he had arranged a follow-up date, in case their date had not gone well. She was shocked and attempted to press him for details, only for him to reply, “We listen and we don’t judge.” The girlfriend then said that whenever Mele would play video games, and she needed attention, she would unplug the router. This prompted a shocked reaction from him, who insisted he would judge her, though she said he could not.

Here is another example from prominent YouTube and TikTok creators, @samandmonica. Here, Monica admits to Sam that she used to shave for One Direction concerts when she was 13. This was because she genuinely believed they would fall in love with her. Sam did not judge her for this and accepted what he learned.

Here’s the video shared by the couple on TikTok:

Later, Sam told Monica that he once bought the same shoes and purple hat as Justin Bieber. He admitted he thought it would help him become more popular and get girls. Monica was surprised and turned her face away, slowly laughing. Sam then accused her of judging, which she denied, and admitted that she would have loved him back then, even though he did that. Evidently, netizens are having a lot of fun making and sharing their own versions of this trend.

Without further delay, here’s what we have learned about Kendrick Lamar’s “Mustard” meme.

Kendrick Lamar’s “Mustard” meme originates from the seventh track of his new album GNX, called “TV Off.” In this track, at the two-minute and five seconds mark, Lamar starts screaming “MUSTAAAARRRD.” The scream continues for five seconds more.

This is a name drop of Mustard, AKA Dijon Isaiah McFarlane, a record producer and DJ who co-produced GNX alongside Lamar, Kamasi Washington, Craig Balmoris, and Jack Antonoff. Consequently, fans took this scream and turned it into an internet meme shortly after. Some memes even used intense film clips or shots to evoke the sheer energy of the scream.

Check out one such clip shared by netizens online:

Not only fans, but even brands jumped on Kendrick Lamar’s Mustard meme bandwagon. For instance, McDonald’s shared a picture of a Honey Mustard packet on X (formerly Twitter), captioning it “Honey MUSTAARRRDD.”

Eventually, Mustard also reacted to the namedrop, addressing his reaction in an interview with Billboard. “That s*** was elite. So fire. Like, is that a new tag?” he said. “I can’t wait to perform that song and just hear people just saying that, ‘cause everybody’s going to say that like crazy.’” Mustard also mentioned his surprise at the album’s quick release, expressing he thought it would only come out on Thanksgiving.

Here’s how Mustard acknowledged Lamar’s track on X:

The other tracks for Kendrick Lamar’s GNX include “Wacced Out Murals,” “Squabble Up,” “Man at the Garden,” “Luther,” “Dodger Blue,” “Heart Pt. 6,” “Hey Now,” “Reincarnated,” “Peekaboo,” “Gloria,” and the title track, “GNX.”

As of this writing, the album has garnered over 4.8 million views on YouTube. Following GNX’s debut, it also crossed 74 million streams on Spotify in just 48 hours.

Billboard recently issued an apology to Taylor Swift after they uploaded a video celebrating her as their second biggest pop star. Notably, that video included a controversial and offensive clip, angering many fans, who demanded an apology on her behalf from the magazine.

Curious about why Billboard apologized to Taylor Swift? Here are all the details.

Why did Billboard apologize to Taylor Swift?

Billboard apologized to Taylor Swift for including a controversial clip in a recent video celebrating her title as their second biggest pop star and all her musical achievements. The clip in question was from Kanye West‘s 2016 music video “Famous,” which featured a nude wax figure of Swift on the bed with him and where he claimed that he helped Swift rise to fame.

The music magazine apologized via X (Twitter). “We are deeply sorry to Taylor Swift and all of our readers and viewers that in a video celebrating Swift’s achievements, we included a clip that falsely depicted her,” the apology read.

They also confirmed that the controversial clip has been edited out of the video.

Swift has not yet publicly responded to the apology. However, fans reacted negatively to the apology.

“This might be one of the worst apologies in the history of bad apologies #BillboardIsOverParty,” one fan tweeted on X.

Another fan called Billboard “irresponsible, toxic, and unprofessional” for including the clip. The fan also called them out for disregarding Swift’s dignity and career.

Several other fans called out Billboard for taking hours to remove the clip.

Taylor Swift and Kanye West’s feud has been long-running. It began in 2009, when, during the MTV Video Music Awards, where Swift had won Best Female Video for “You Belong With Me,” West interrupted her on stage during her speech and claimed that Beyonce should have won the award.

Swift is currently in the final leg of her International Eras Tour, which will wrap up on December 8, 2024.

Fans wish to learn what happened to Franz at the end of The Empress Season 2. The newest and second season of the German historical drama is set only a couple of years after the events of Season 1 and follows Empress Elisabeth’s motherhood and the increasingly tense relationships between Austria and Italian countries.

So, did Franz die on the battlefield in Season 2? Why did he join the battlefield in the first place? Here are all your questions answered.

Did Franz die on the battlefield in The Empress Season 2?

Whether Franz died on the battlefield in The Empress Season 2 is unknown. This is because his final fate was not shown. He was last seen departing for battle against the Kingdom of Piedmont.

However, as per historical records, Franz would survive the battle and return to Austria. He had passed away in his palace, Schonbrunn, at the old age of 86 after contracting pneumonia.

After Franz left for battle, his mother, Sophie, became upset and angry and blamed Elisabeth for his departure. However, Elizabeth chose to comfort her. Before departing, Franz had put Elisabeth and Sophie in charge of the Austrian Empire until his son Rudolf became old enough to take over the throne. Franz’s decision upset his brother Maximilian, who left with his wife Charlotte.

Why did Franz join the battlefield in The Empress Season 2?

Franz decided to join the battlefield in The Empress Season 2 because he was emotionally affected by the deaths and injuries of countless Austrian soldiers. This made him feel an obligation to lead his soldiers directly on the battlefield. He also decided to do so because the Kingdom of Piedmont, whom he had declared war on, wanted to annex one of the regions under his rule, Lombardy-Venetia.

For much of the second season, Franz opposed war and favored peace. He was also pressured by the weight of his responsibilities, as he desired a simple life as a loving father and husband.

The two seasons of The Empress are currently streaming on Netflix.

The Spy x Family manga was recently announced by Shonen Jump+’s social media to be going on a break and has delayed the release date of Chapter 108, which was initially scheduled to come out this week. This has greatly shocked many fans who are wondering why the Spy x Family manga is going on a break or hiatus.

Curious about Chapter 108’s release date? Wondering why the manga is taking a month-long hiatus/break? Here are your answers.

What is Spy x Family Chapter 108’s release date?

Spy x Family Chapter 108’s release date is December 23, 2024. It was originally scheduled for November 25.

This release date was confirmed by the official X (Twitter) account of Shonen Jump+. Here, an apology was also issued to fans.

The Spy x Family manga is currently in its 17th story arc, titled “Term Break.” This arc primarily focuses on Anya Forger and her classmates’ lives away from Eden Academy.

Moreover, The Forgers were also shown taking a family trip to see Belle, a strange and rare seal that showed up in a mysterious part of the country. Furthermore, Anya also reconnected with her best friend, Becky Blackwell, who had also been visiting Belle with her parents.

Why did Spy x Family manga take a month-long break?

It is unknown why the Spy x Family manga decided to take a month-long hiatus.

This is because an exact reason for the break was not provided by Shonen Jump+. However, considering how the manga industry can be hectic, sometimes even to the point of being detrimental to the creators’ health, and how difficult it can be for artists and writers to helm new chapters, a break is not surprising. For instance, One Piece creator Eiichiro Oda has often taken multiple breaks or hiatuses between the releases of chapters.

A viral meme called “Queen Never Cry” has been making a lot of waves on social media sites like TikTok and Instagram. This has invited interest from many fans, who wish to learn more about it and where it originates from. So, what is the meaning of the “Queen Never Cry” meme?

Without further ado, here is a detailed explanation of the popular meme and its origins.

‘Queen Never Cry’ meme explained

The “Queen Never Cry” or “Queen Don’t Cry” meme originates from a panel of a popular webtoon called The Ki Sisters.

The aforementioned webtoon panel features a mother and her newborn baby. In the panel, a nurse who helped deliver the baby hands it over to her mother. However, the child soon starts crying. Immediately after this, the nurse whispers “Queen never cry” to the baby’s ears.

This is then followed by the baby stopping to cry and putting up a blank and cold facial expression. This same expression continues in a subsequent montage depicting the baby’s growth into an adolescent and later an adult.

Check out the viral meme below:

The “Queen never cry” meme quickly gained popularity on social media sites like Instagram and TikTok because of its wild and unique nature. It also became viral because of how it combines emotional expression with drama and humor. Consequently, netizens then took to social media platforms to act out the meme and film their own renditions of it.

Here is one example of a TikTok user @briannaguidry reading a comment that states, “The fact that seeing her cry made me wanna cry too.” The user quickly did an expression signifying ‘no’, and said with a dubbed voice “Queen never cry,” subsequently acting out the meme.

Users also recreated the meme with characters from popular television shows and video games. For example, here are the Arcane and Bayonetta renditions of the meme. Furthermore, social media users even created versions of the meme representing countries like Saudi Arabia.

Overall, the “Queen Never Cry” meme enforces the notion of holding yourself together and staying in control, when coming across situations that could potentially elicit strong emotional reactions.

Subway recently decided to end its $6.99 value meal deal earlier than anticipated. This has surprised and shocked many lovers of the fast-food chain. Accordingly, they are now wondering why Subway decided to end the value meal.

So, did the value meal not meet sales expectations? Or did it not deliver the profits Subway expected? Here’s everything you need to know about the surprising move.

Here’s why Subway is ending $6.99 value meal

Subway is ending the $6.99 value meal deal because it did not give them the desired results and meet expectations.

The fast-food chain announced the decision to end the value meal in a memo sent to operators on Friday, obtained by Restaurant Business Magazine. “The Meal Deal was designed to help drive a lift in traffic, sales and, ultimately, restaurant-level profitability, and delivered on these objectives during the market test,” the memo read. “While the national Meal Deal promotion is delivering the expected number of daily redemptions, overall the promotion is not driving the anticipated results.”

Subway has also revealed that they are switching to a digital offer in which customers can avail 20% off on any sub on Wednesday until January 5, 2025. However, Subway’s Value meal deal will be available via digital channels until December 26, 2024.

The Value Meal deal was originally launched on November 3, 2024, in celebration of National Sandwich Day. The meal comprised the following items:

• A six-inch sub
• A fountain drink
• A bag of chips or Two regular cookies

Subway has previously faced significant resistance from franchisees when it came to value deals, owing to the lack of cooperation from some outlets. 2015 saw at least 7000 Subway outlets on account of failing sales and low unit volumes.

Subway recently announced that its CEO John Chidsey would be stepping down at the end of the year. He will be replaced by Carrie Walsh as interim CEO while the company looks for Chidsey’s full-time successor. Walsh is currently Subway’s President of Europe, the Middle East, and Africa (EMEA) and its ex-Global Chief Marketing Officer (CMO).

Fans are wondering whether Moana 2 has an end, mid, or post-credits scene. They are also curious about Matangi’s fate in the film’s mid-credits scene. The story sees Moana and Maui embarking on a journey across Oceania’s seas and facing a new powerful threat.

Here are all your questions answered.

Is there an end, mid, or post-credits scene in Moana 2?

Moana 2 has a mid-credits scene.

The mid-credits scene finally reveals the storm god Nalo to the audience. Nalo was an unseen but looming presence for much of the film, as the film’s main antagonist Matangi worked for him. Nalo is shown being frustrated by Moana having undone the curse he had placed on the ocean, after which he vows vengeance against her for foiling his plans.

The mid-credits scene also brings Tamatoa, one of the original film’s main antagonists, back. He joins forces with Nalo and Matangi, expressing his desire to take revenge on Moana and Maui for tricking him in the previous film.

Thus, Moana 3 would find Moana and Maui going up against three villains.

What happens to Matangi in Moana 2’s mid-credits scene?

In Moana 2’s mid-credits scene, Matangi is shown tied down by lightning and being under Nalo’s mind control.

Towards the end of the film, Matangi chooses to secretly help Moana, Maui, and their allies by directing them to the spirit-filled seas to raise Motufenu. Matangi had done this, believing she would get her freedom from Nalo’s influence after the curse placed on the ocean was lifted.

However, while Moana successfully lifted the curse, Matangi unfortunately found herself under Nalo’s thrall once again.

Moana 2 is currently playing in theaters. The film is directed by Dana Ledoux Miller, Jason Hand, and David G. Derrick Jr. The voice cast comprises Auli’i Cravalho, Dwayne Johnson, Hualalai Chung, and Rose Matafeo, among others.
