The 63-year-old actors were in Australia for the production of Baz Luhrmann’s Elvis Presley biopic, in which Hanks plays Colonel Tom Parker, when they announced they had the disease.
“Hello, folks. Rita and I are down here in Australia. We felt a bit tired, like we had colds, and some body aches. Rita had some chills that came and went. Slight fevers too. To play things right, as is needed in the world right now, we were tested for the Coronavirus, and were found to be positive,” he wrote on Instagram.
Hanks added, “Well, now. What to do next? The Medical Officials have protocols that must be followed. We Hanks’ will be tested, observed, and isolated for as long as public health and safety requires. Not much more to it than a one-day-at-a-time approach, no? We’ll keep the world posted and updated. Take care of yourselves!”
Warner Bros., the company distributing the film, released a statement about Hanks and Wilson, who visited two of the most popular tourist attractions in Australia before testing positive for the disease.
“We are working closely with the appropriate Australian health agencies to identify and contact anyone who may have come in direct contact with the individual. The health and safety of our company members is always our top priority, and we are taking precautions to protect everyone who works on our productions around the world. The individual who tested positive for COVID-19 is currently receiving treatment.”
Hanks and Wilson departed from the Queensland hospital five days after they announced that they tested positive for COVID-19, as reported by People and Entertainment Tonight on Monday. The couple will continue their quarantine at a home in Australia to prevent spreading the illness to others.

The NBA suspended its season after Utah Jazz center Rudy Gobert tested positive for the coronavirus.

The game between the Utah Jazz and the Oklahoma City Thunder was postponed on March 11 after the Jazz’s center Rudy Gobert tested positive for the coronavirus, as reported by ESPN. The 27-year-old athlete was reportedly in Oklahoma City but wasn’t present at the arena for the game.
Following the news, both teams were quarantined in Chesapeake Energy Arena. The City Thunder players left, however the Jazz players remained in the arena until testing results were finalized. Because the Jazz have come in contact with players from other NBA teams in recent games, 20% of NBA players are facing quarantine.
Shortly after calling off the game, the NBA released a statement announcing that it would suspend its season.
The statement reads, “The NBA announced that a player on the Utah Jazz has preliminarily tested positive for the COVID-19. The test result was reported shortly prior to the tip-off of tonight’s game between the Jazz and Oklahoma City Thunder at the Chesapeake Energy Arena. At that time, tonight’s game was canceled. The affected player was not in the arena. The NBA is suspending game play following the conclusion of tonight’s schedule of games until further notice. The NBA will use this hiatus to determine next steps for moving forward in regard to the coronavirus pandemic.”
After Gobert’s diagnosis was announced, a video from March 9 surfaced of the athlete mocking coronavirus precautions by rubbing the microphones at a press conference. His teammates have also suggested that Gobert was “careless in the locker room” and had been “touching other players and their belongings” prior to finding out he has COVID-19.
Donovan Mitchell was the second NBA player to test positive for the illness.

“As a follow-up to yesterday’s positive COVID-19 test, Oklahoma health officials tested all members of the Utah Jazz traveling party, confirming one additional positive outcome for a Jazz player. We are working closely with the CDC, Oklahoma and Utah state officials, and the NBA to monitor their health and determine the best path moving forward,” the statement reads.
The 23-year-old athlete was reportedly the only other Jazz player to test positive for the disease, according to The Athletic’s Shams Charania.

Gene: “The Tom Snyder show experience was horrific. Ace was bombed… I was trying desperately to keep it together.”
Peter: “We took over the show. Ace was drinking champagne, he was shit-faced… I thought it was terrific, I was Ace’s biggest fan that night.”
Ace: “I was totally nervous… On the way down I drank a half a bottle of Stolie… It was just one of those spontaneous things that worked out. I have no idea where I came up with those jokes…”
I love them both a lot, thanks.
I love the entire SOLA album and that track is one of my favorites from it tbh. “White Trash Circus,” “Goin’ Out Swingin’,” and “Just Another Psycho” are probably my top 3 tracks off of it. The album is just so real and that track in particular embodies who they are as a band.

There are a lot of celebrities around the world who love Arsenal football club, and unfortunately not all of them can get a mention in the top 10 list. So, here is my list of the top ten celebrity Arsenal fans. enjoy…
The 40-year-old rapper has been an Arsenal fan for a number of years, but many questioned his love for the club after he was photographed as a guest of Manchester City when they beat Arsenal last season. However, a few months back Jay-Z cleared up any allegations that he was nothing but a Gooner. Speaking to Arsenal Magazine the hip-hop star said:
“After that game the press started reporting that I was a Manchester City fan, I am really glad all that has been cleared up and that everybody in the UK knows that I am an Arsenal fan.”
The lyricist was made aware of the Gunners and took a shine to them when Thierry Henry used to play for them, he goes on to say:
“It was about five years ago now, when Thierry Henry was at the club, I saw him play and I just thought he was an amazing player. Ever since then I have been a big fan of the club.”
Jay-Z has stated that he would love to hook up with the Arsenal squad for lunch and has also openly invited them to attend his next gig in London, whenever this maybe. Beyonce’s other half has also hinted that he may invest some of his £500 million earnings in the club should the opportunity arise in the near future. 99 Problems but his love for Arsenal isn’t one of them.
9. Spike Lee
The American film director, producer, writer and actor is an Arsenal fan, and a big one at that. The 53-year-old is known to wear the Arsenal Jersey whilst on set and is a close and personal friend of former Arsenal striker Thierry Henry. Spike Lee has attended several matches at Highbury in recent years, as well as a few games at the Emirates Stadium last season. The multi-talented American has a very good knowledge of the game to say the very least. Spike is a Gooner.


Diana Spencer, who would go on to become the Princess of Wales after marrying Prince Charles, is one of the most beloved members of the British Royal Family in recent memory. Diana died in a tragic car accident on August 31, 1997, while visiting Paris with her boyfriend, Dodi Fayed. Her tragic and sudden passing struck the world, and her funeral became the most-watched non-sporting event in TV history.
In the immediate aftermath of her death, conspiracy theories about what “really” happened to the Princess swirled endlessly. So, was Diana’s death truly a terrible accident, or did dark forces conspire against her? Let’s take a closer look.
On August 27, 1997, the recently-divorced Princess Diana was visiting Paris with her boyfriend, Dodi Fayed. When leaving their hotel, accompanied by their driver, Henri Paul, and Diana’s bodyguard, Trevor Rees-Jones, the group was suddenly pursued by an onslaught of paparazzi. According to later investigations, it appears as though none of the occupants of the car were wearing their seatbelts. This was reportedly so that they could duck down out of sight of the cameras.
Henri Paul is said to have been extremely drunk at the time of the crash when he lost control of the vehicle and slammed into a concrete pillar in the middle of the highway. Dodi Fayed and Paul were both pronounced dead at the scene, while Rees-Jones and Diana were treated for their injuries on the scene and then taken to a nearby hospital. While Rees-Jones would eventually recover, Diana’s injuries proved fatal.
The most prevalent conspiracy theory surrounding Diana’s death is that the car was somehow sabotaged, or Henri Paul was paid off or blackmailed in some way, by people who wanted her dead. Some versions of the theory hold that the royal family wanted Diana gone since she was dating an Egyptian Muslim. Others hold that her ex-husband, Prince Charles, may have wanted her dead so he could more easily marry his paramour, Camilla Parker Bowles.
However, these theories don’t seem to hold any truth. While Diana was reportedly paranoid about the possibility of her vehicle being sabotaged, such as someone having her brake lines cut, there is no evidence of foul play in the accident that took her life. Henri Paul seems to have been extremely drunk at the time of the accident, according to his autopsy report, and their vehicle was not tampered with.
The takeaway from Diana’s tragic passing is that sometimes bad things happen in this chaotic world. Remember to never drink and drive, and to always wear a seatbelt on the road.

Miles Davis was an American Jazz Musician and trumpeter; he is considered one of the most significant jazz musicians of the 20th century. NYC Landmarks 50 Advisory Committee honored Miles Davis with a cultural medallion. This cultural medallion was placed at Davis’ former Upper West Side home at 312 West 77th St. He bought the home in 1958 and lived there for 25 years; in this home he composed many of his greatest hits.
Landmarks 50 Vice Chair, Barbaralee Diamonstein Spielvogel was there on Thursday May 16th, to introduce many artists and musicians that worked with Davis throughout the years. Some of the artists included Quincy Troupe, Gary Bartz, James Mtume and Wallace Roney.
Troupe is a poet and co author of Miles and Me, which is a memoir about his friendship with Miles Davis. Troupe read from his book, “Miles’ tone was masterful, for at least 35 years Miles Davis was the dominant force in Jazz.” Troupe also went on to talk about Davis and how inspirational his music has been to past generations.
Wallace Roney, a trumpeter said “Miles took me in and let me hang around”, he had the chance to be up close and learn from Miles Davis. The neighbors and other members of the press were given a performance by Wallace Roney, Gary Bartz and members of The Harlem School of the Arts Advance Jazz Combo. Some people that were just walking by came to see what was going on.
Gary Bartz, a saxophonist and clarinetist said “Miles taught me the essence of being a true artist.”He talked about various times where he would hang out with Davis and learn from him. Bartz also added “Miles was one of the funniest men I’ve ever had the opportunity to be around.”
James Mtume, soul musician, songwriter and composer, talked about when he would hang out with Davis in the same home and they would make music together. Mtume said “I haven’t been in this house in over 40 years”, then he added, “he’s still in there”, implying that Miles’ spirit and essence are still in the house.


She’s white, and yet black. Her hair is naturally blonde, her skin and facial hair are milk white, her eyes are green, and her lips and nose are distinctly African. She is Diandra Forrest, albinism’s role model, and the most startling supermodel of our time.
Here she tells her story of growing up — how the pain of being an “ugly duckling” as a child was transformed into the celebrity of being a sought-after star at a major model agency.
Diandra Forrest is an African American model/actress born and raised in New York. As the first model with albinism to be signed to a major modeling agency, Diandra has been featured in multiple TV specials and magazine covers. As a humanitarian, Diandra’s focus is equality and tolerance for all.
She was born in the Bronx, New York City, on October 22, 1989, to African American parents. She is not the only albino in the family — of her three siblings she also has a brother with the same condition.
The term “albino” comes from word “albus” — the Latin word for “white”. Approximately one person in 17,000 is born with the condition, a rare genetic disorder characterized by a loss of pigment in the skin, hair and sometimes the eyes. Albino people lack melanin, the substance responsible for natural hair and skin color. The condition affects people of all ethnicities globally.

Musician, disc jockey and producer Andrew Weatherall passed away recently at the age of 56. Weatherall was a key player in the acid house movement of the late 1980s and early 1990s, and he had a long and very successful career as both a DJ and producer. He is perhaps best known for having co-produced the breakthrough 1991 Primal Screen album Screamadelica, and he worked with many other important acts including New Order, for whom he remixed the band’s football anthem and international hit “World In Motion” in the early 1990s.
Born in 1963, one of the early musical influences on Weatherall was hearing the disco music of Donna Summers. The electronic sounds of this music were radically new at the time, and they were revolutionary. As a child, Weatherall was fascinated with the grooves, and he was also intrigued because his parents said that the music was made by machines and, therefore, it wasn’t real music.
Weatherall enjoyed his adolescence following soul acts and became an active participant in the post-punk movement of the late 1970s and early 1980s. His love of being a DJ dates back to these years when he would invite mates over to his parents’ home to listen to him play records. This enthusiasm would stay with him for the rest of his life, and he spoke about how he could be bored with a certain record himself but then would gain great satisfaction from playing it to an audience and seeing a positive response.
After leaving school, Weatherall went on to work at various jobs including stints as a carpenter’s assistant, furniture mover and more. He also tried his hand at amateur journalism. From there, he got into the rave scene and worked in a crew that put on events and generally promoted and practiced electronic-music culture.
When Andrew Weatherall agreed to co-produce Primal Scream’s seminal album “Screamadelica,” he had no idea that it would become one of the most acclaimed records of the 1990s. The record borrowed heavily from the house-music scene, and Weatherall was a big part of this. In retrospect, he said that acclaim that the record brought him made him a bit arrogant at the time, but he added that working on the record opened many doors for him. It was largely because of his production work with Primal Scream that he got other good jobs.
Weatherall is arguably best known for helping take ‘acid house‘ from being an underground form of music and expression to a much more mainstream genre. He was one of the ambassadors for electronic music in its early years when it was poorly understood by the public in general and many young people in particular. He is remembered warmly by the musicians, artists, and other people part of the many scenes he contributed to over the decades, and there has been an outpouring of positive eulogies about him following his death in London from a pulmonary embolism.


Today we step back in time to feature one of the most popular trumpet players of a few generations ago. Harry James was one of the most well-known musicians of his time. He led a big band that was featured in several movies in the 1930s, 40s, and 50s. He was a household name know for his trumpet playing, band leading, and acting.
Harry James had the unique ability to combine classical technique with swing-era jazz style. His Concerto for Trumpet showcases this versatility.

Hugh Sheridan knows he has a lot to prove in order to shake off the negativity that normally follows the musical pursuits of Aussie actors-turned-singers. Luckily for the Packed to the Rafters star, he was destined to be a muso before he could walk. Born to a jazz singer father, and with musical siblings including radio announcer sister, Zoe Sheridan, performing seems to be in his blood. The NIDA, Australian Ballet School, and Victorian College of the Arts graduate has had a busy couple of years. Alongside the massive success of Packed to the Rafters, for which he picked up a Silver Logie, comes his debut album, Speak Love, a soft and uplifting pop record headed for strong airplay these holidays. Sheridan takes a breather from his hectic schedule to talk to TOM, before jetting off to Hong Kong for a gig - apparently as a favour to his landlord.
Ect. Ect, here.


Astrology can give us deep insights into who someone is and what motivates them in life.
This is especially interesting when taking a look at famous and influential members of our society.
One such woman is American singer and actress Stefani Germanotta, more commonly known as Lady Gaga.
What can Gaga’s charts tell us about who she is?
Let’s take a look!
1) Gaga is an Aries
Gaga was born March 28, 1986 in New York City, which makes her an Aries.
Aries is a fire sign and is represented by the ram.
Like its fellow fiery cousins Leo and Sagittarius, Aries is about action and confidence.
Aries is a very community-minded individual who tries s and goal-oriented.
Aries does not give up and prefers to be direct, enthusiastic and sometimes aggressive.
Let’s take a peek at how these traits translate into Gaga’s life.
2) She is extremely determined
Not even Gaga’s worst critic would dare argue with the fact that she’s a very determined and s.
She grew up in a working class background and did not come from money, instead making her way up through s and consistent effort.
She started singing as a teen in her high school musicals and also went to open mic events and other places and events where she could stretch her vocal chords.
Gaga’s extroverted Aries fire was on display from an early age: she was following her passion wherever it led.
3) She never settles
While the rest of us may look in wonder at their accomplishments, Aries are never satisfied.
They don’t reach a point where they say “good enough” and relax.
Aries is motivated by s, and Gaga is no different.
Gaga’s exceptional voice and hard work paid off and she landed a place at an exclusive program through NYU’s Tisch school.
This was the ideal place to follow a well-worn track, but she wasn’t satisfied and dropped out on her own to pursue a career by herself.
In her musical career and despite multiple best selling albums and legions of adoring fans and sold out stadiums, we also see how Gaga has continually reinvented.
This includes trying out jazz, soft rock, dance pop, electronic music and many other genres.
We also see how even music hasn’t been enough for her. She didn’t want to settle and eventually branched out into thespianism, including her much-lauded performance in A Star is Born.
4) She cares about others
Gaga has been a leading advocate of LGBT rights and active in progressive politics.
This also fits with Aries, which tends to be very concerned about the wellbeing of those who they feel are mistreated or oppressed.
Aries are motivated by compassion and a desire to help others, which is part of what often drives their desire to make a difference in the real world.
Gaga has shown that at least for her, her fame is partly a vehicle for her to get involved in causes that are close to her heart.
Most prominently, this includes her Born This Way Foundation which supports the welfare of young LGBT people who are struggling to find acceptance and wellbeing in life.
5) Gaga is a loyal and passionate partner
In her love life, Gaga has proven that she wears her heart on her sleeve and gives her all.
Aries individuals tend to be very direct in love and s, which Gaga has shown herself to be.
She wants to have kids and has been engaged several times to high-profile and high-powered men.
As of the latest available information, Gaga is currently dating Michael Polansky but has had her share of heartbreak in the past.
This includes dating her audio engineer Dan Horton in 2019, talent agent Christian Carino from 2017 to 2019 and Taylor Kinney from 2011 to 2016.
Gaga was engaged to Kinney and Carino, but both engagements didn’t work out in the end.
Polansky is a tech entrepreneur who is involved in immunotherapy to fight cancer. He also heads the Parker Foundation, “which launched in 2015, supports philanthropic efforts in life sciences, global public health, civic engagements, and the arts.”
The two look set for a very happy life together.
6) She’s positive
Aries tends to be a very positive sign, s and cheer.
They are often extroverts who are popular and well liked by many because of their leadership abilities and inspiring example.
Aries are great at motivating teams and helping people see the best in a situation.
Gaga is certainly this, and has been renowned for her ability to accomplish great things in her career and with her team.
7) She likes to party
Gaga is a party animal, and like many Aries individuals she likes to tear it up on the dancefloor.
There’s a reason her music is so good for parties: it’s because she herself loves to have fun!
This is definitely an Aries trait.
8) She’s firm in her views
Aries tend to be opinionated and not be very s. This is one of their downsides.
In her political activism, Gaga has shown that she’s someone who believes her views are absolutely correct.
Those who disagree with her are full of hate, according to her.
This is a typical Aries move: my way or the highway!
9) Gaga has a temper
Gaga may have a great voice and know her way around acting as well, but she also has a temper.
She’s been known to lose patience with those who disagree with her and even appeared in a political video with Joe Biden where she made fun of “rednecks” who don’t vote for the party she prefers.
Gaga has also displayed anger at the “worst” Christians like former Vice President Mike Pence, whose opposition to gay marriage and LGBT rights infuriates her.
Smaller incidents have also caught people’s attention, such as when Gaga was outraged at her security team for not letting her continue crowd surfing during a concert.
“Aries is known for an explosive temper,” writes Aliza Kelly. “Although their outbursts don’t last long, it’s definitely best to avoid fiery rams until the steam has dissipated.”
10) She’s ambitious
Like many Aries individuals, Gaga is extremely ambitious.
We can see that in her determined rise to fame and in her expansion into acting and activism.
But we can also see that in Gaga’s business ventures themselves, particularly her Haus Labs company.
This vegan makeup and wellness brand was created by Gaga in 2019 and has proven remarkably successful and profitable thus far.
Add businesswoman and entrepreneur to her list of titles!
Going gaga for Gaga
There’s no doubt that Lady Gaga will be a star for years to come and beloved by millions.
She’s an inspiring example of somebody who worked their way up through the power of their will and vision and has chosen to give back to society in many ways.


Don Felder Ready for Verizon Wireless Ampitheatre Date
Don Felder is a brand. Don Felder is a business. Don Felder is a musical icon.
Atlanta music fans will have the opportunity to see the former guitarist of The Eagles on May 24 at Verizon Wireless Ampitheatre as he leads the way for Foreigner and Styx on "The Soundtrack of Summer" tour.
"The Soundtrack of Summer" tour begins May 16, in Oklahoma City at the Zoo Amphitheatre. It winds around the country all summer and tickets for the Atlanta date and other cities are on sale and still available. Visit the tour’s official website,www.soundtrackofsummer.com.
"I've known the guys in Styx for years," says Felder. "Tommy Shaw co-wrote a couple songs on my last record and we've played together and have had great reception from the audience."
This will be a tripleheader with Felder leading off and then giving way to Foreigner and Styx.
Felder promises to play many of his chart topping hits from The Eagles years. He also will let the crowd in on some of his new solo material and play something Stevie Ray Vaughn fans will appreciate.
Felder said part of the reason he joined this tour was he knew there would be no drama.
"Everyone in (Styx) from the band to the crew to the people are really great. It's fun to spend time with them. When I met Foreigner and spent some time in the studio with them, preparing for this tour, I realized this is going to be a lot of fun."
The likeable Felder was a member of The Eagles for 27 years, co-writing The Eagles' biggest hit - the memorable, Grammy-winning smash, "Hotel California" - along with hits like "Victim of Love" and "Those Shoes."
Last year, Felder released his second solo album, Road to Forever.
May 24 will be a chance for Atlanta-area music fans to see some legends of music, with Felder leading the way.
The tour may be officially called "The Soundtrack of Summer," but for many attending it will be the highlight of their summer.
