You can’t help but love to see the (long overdue) flowers Dionne Warwick has been getting over the last few years.

Beyond reportedly moving forward on a highly anticipated biopic with names like Letoya Luckett and Teyana Taylor circling the rumor mill as potential leads, Warwick was nominated for induction into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 2022 and later included in the class of trailblazing acts toasted at the 2023 Kennedy Center Honors.

The homages seem to show no sign of slowing as the 83-year-young diva is kicking off 2024 with even more recognition of her legendary career.

Jonathan Majors is set the lift the lid on his side of the story.

As widely reported, the actor was found guilty on two of the four misdemeanor counts of assault and harassment he faced in his domestic abuse case with ex-girlfriend Grace Jabbari.

Having maintained a measured silence publicly since being arrested last March, Majors – who has steadfastly maintained his innocence – will be sitting down with ABC News to unpack his version of events as well as the impact it’s had on his life and career.

Majors was dropped by his management and PR firms upon his initial arrest and Marvel axed him from the role of Kang the Conqueror in the MCU almost immediately following the handing down of the guilty verdict.

Set to air on Monday, January 8, the star will be quizzed on everything by anchor Linsey Davis. A segment will broadcast on Good Morning America, with the full interview running on ABC News at 7.00 pm. EST.

In a newly unwrapped sneak peek preview, a tearful Majors breaks down and admits “it’s been hard.”

EMMY-winning actor Colman Domingo is no stranger to receiving critical and industry acclaim for his varied roles over the years, but – thanks to stellar performances in recently released films ‘The Color Purple‘ and ‘Rustin‘ – he’s seen buzz around his name reach its highest height yet.

Having already expressed interest in joining the MCU, Domingo is considered a shoo-in for the role in place of Majors – a growing hoopla the 54-year-old recently addressed.
