‘Sex and the City’ cast: What are they up to now?
More than 25 years after ‘Sex and the City’ first premiered, Carrie Bradshaw and her close-knit group of Manhattan friends remain some of television’s most iconic characters. The hit HBO series ran for six seasons, inspired two blockbuster movies, and even later returned with the sequel series ‘And Just Like That’. At the center of it all was Sarah Jessica Parker as Carrie Bradshaw, the fashion-loving columnist who made designer shoes a cultural obsession. Since the show ended, Parker has starred in films including ‘Failure to Launch’ and ‘New Year’s Eve’. She also earned critical praise for her role in the HBO drama series, ‘Divorce’, before returning to her signature character in ‘And Just Like That’. Off-screen, she shares three children with her husband, fellow actor Matthew Broderick. Kim Cattrall’s Samantha Jones became a fan favorite thanks to her confidence and sharp wit. Before joining the series, Cattrall was known for her roles in the hit ‘80s movies ‘Mannequin’ and ‘Big Trouble in Little China’. While she chose not to return as a regular cast member for ‘And Just Like That’, she surprised fans with a brief appearance during the show's second season in 2023. Kristin Davis, who played the optimistic Charlotte York, continued working on both stage and screen after the series ended, starring in projects like ‘Deadly Illusions’ and ‘Cash Out’. She also later reunited with her former castmates by reprising her role in the reboot. And then there’s Cynthia Nixon, who transformed Miranda Hobbes into one of television’s most memorable career-driven characters. Since the original series, Nixon has won two Tony Awards, an Emmy Award, and even a Grammy Award for Best Spoken Word Album. She also ran for governor of New York in 2018 and reprised her role as Miranda in ‘And Just Like That’.

An assassin’s bullet hit Bob Marley - then he made his greatest statement
In December 1976, Bob Marley survived an assassination attempt just days before a politically charged concert in Kingston, Jamaica. Shot and wounded, he still took the stage before 80,000 people, delivering a performance that would become one of the most legendary moments in music history. But the real story begins afterward. Leaving Jamaica behind and entering self-imposed exile in London, Marley transformed his frustration, fear, and spiritual conviction into Exodus — the album that elevated him from reggae superstar to global symbol of resistance, unity, and hope. Drawing deeply from Rastafarian beliefs, anti-colonial politics, and the struggles facing oppressed people around the world, Exodus balanced calls for revolution with visions of peace, love, and liberation. It was Bob Marley at his most political, most spiritual, and perhaps most radical.

No other film let people dress like this in public - The rise of Rocky Horror
What starts as a bizarre low-budget musical quickly becomes one of the most important queer cultural phenomena in modern history. Released in 1975 to weak reviews and nearly abandoned by studios, The Rocky Horror Picture Show initially looked like a complete failure — an absurd sci-fi comedy filled with campy dialogue, drag performances, sexual chaos, fishnets, horror references, glam rock aesthetics, and wildly unconventional characters. But beneath all the weirdness was something much more radical for its time: a public celebration of gender nonconformity, queer sexuality, self-expression, and liberation during an era when openly queer people still faced enormous social hostility and violence. The video traces Rocky Horror’s origins through the glam rock explosion of the early 1970s, the aftermath of the Stonewall riots, and creator Richard O’Brien’s fascination with gender fluidity, camp theater, and old horror films. At first, the movie struggled commercially — until midnight screenings slowly transformed it into something entirely new. Audience members began shouting jokes at the screen, dressing in costume, performing scenes live in front of the movie, and eventually turning screenings into massive communal rituals built around participation and freedom. Over time, these screenings evolved into safe spaces where queer people could publicly experiment with clothing, drag, sexuality, and identity in ways mainstream society still heavily punished outside theater walls.

The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air cast: Where are they now?
Three decades after ‘The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air’ ended its celebrated six-season run, the sitcom remains a fan favorite and a defining comedy of the 1990s. The series helped launch Will Smith’s career and introduced viewers to the unforgettable Banks family. But what have its stars been up to since the show ended? Will Smith, who portrayed a fictionalized version of himself, became one of Hollywood’s most successful leading men. After the show wrapped in 1996, he starred in major films such as ‘Men in Black’, ‘Ali’, ‘The Pursuit of Happyness’ and ‘I Am Legend’. In 2022, Smith even earned an Academy Award for his leading role in ‘King Richard’. Alfonso Ribeiro, remembered for his role as Carlton Banks and his iconic dance moves, continued his television career well after the series. He appeared on ‘In the House’, won ‘Dancing with the Stars' in 2014, and even later became the host of ‘America’s Funniest Home Videos’. In 2022, he also returned to ‘Dancing with the Stars’ as a co-host. James Avery, beloved for his portrayal of Uncle Phil, remained active in television and voice acting, with some of his notable credits including ‘That ’70s Show’ and ‘The Closer’. Avery sadly passed away in 2013 at the age of 68 following complications from heart surgery. Janet Hubert, who originated the role of Aunt Vivian during the show's first three seasons, continued acting, with memorable appearances in ‘One Life to Live’, ‘Friends’, and ‘General Hospital’. For years, Hubert publicly alleged that tensions with Will Smith contributed to her departure from the series. However, the two thankfully reconciled during the show's 2020 reunion special. Speaking to People magazine in 2021, Hubert reflected on their renewed relationship, saying that both had been in difficult places at the time and honest communication ultimately helped them move forward.
