Rick Davies, Supertramp lead singer and co-founder, dies at 81

London — Rick Davies, the lead singer and co-founder of British band Supertramp, has died after a long battle with cancer, the band said Monday. He was 81.
Davies, who co-wrote the band’s music with Roger Hodgson, was “the voice and pianist behind Supertramp’s most iconic songs, leaving an indelible mark on rock music history,” the band said in a tribute on its website.
He died Saturday after battling multiple myeloma, a type of blood cancer, for more than a decade, the band said.
Davies and Hodgson formed Supertramp in 1969 and produced hits including “Goodbye Stranger” and “The Logical Song.” The band’s 1979 album “Breakfast in America” topped charts in the United States and Canada, won two Grammys and sold over 18 million copies.
Davies’ “soulful vocals and unmistakable touch on the Wurlitzer became the heartbeat of the bands’ sound,” the statement said.

Born in Swindon, England in 1944, Davies had a passion for jazz, blues and rock’n’roll from a young age, the band said.
Hodgson left the band in 1983 and released solo albums. Supertramp disbanded in 1988, though Davies revived it in 1996. The group performed for the last time in Madrid in 2012.
“Beyond the stage, Rick was known for his warmth, resilience, and devotion to his wife Sue, with whom he shared over five decades,” the ban said. “After facing serious health challenges, which kept him unable to continue touring as Supertramp, he enjoyed performing with his hometown buds as Ricky and the Rockets.”
The band’s tribute concluded with a statement it emphasized: “Rick’s music and legacy continue to inspire many and bears testament to the fact that great songs never die, they live on.”

Prince Harry is on a rare visit back to the U.K., but will he see King Charles III or Prince William?

London — Britain’s Prince Harry landed back in the U.K. on Monday, the third anniversary of his grandmother Queen Elizabeth II’s death, for a week of public charity engagements, but it was unclear whether he would meet with his father, King Charles III, or his brother, Prince William, neither of whom he has seen in months.
The Duke of Sussex’s packed itinerary began with an award ceremony on Monday for WellChild, a charity for seriously ill children that he supports. Tuesday saw him pay a visit to the central city of Nottingham, with a focus on young people affected by violence, and on Wednesday and Thursday the prince is expected to hold private meetings with representatives from other charities he supports.
Harry’s trip will reportedly be covered at close hand by certain media organizations seen as friendly to the Sussexes. But the question dominating most coverage in Britain has been whether Harry will meet with his father, the king.

King Charles and Prince Harry last saw each other in February 2024, during a half-hour meeting following the king’s announcement of his cancer diagnosis.
Harry has been largely estranged from his family since he and wife Meghan moved to the U.S. and spoke out against what they said was racist treatment, including in the prince’s book “Spare.”
“I think if there is any chance of any sort of rapprochement between Charles and Harry, they would need to meet this week,” Roya Nikkhah, the royal editor for the Sunday Times newspaper, told CBS News on Tuesday. “I mean, they’ve not seen each other for 19 months. It’s a very long time.”
“We don’t know when Harry will next be back here. So I think if there isn’t a meeting this week, that gives you an indication that things are really a lot worse on the king’s side than we would hope,” said Nikkhah.
She said a meeting during the prince’s current visit with his brother, future king Prince William, seem much less likely.

“William and Harry haven’t seen each other in person since 2022, since the late queen’s funeral. And I believe they haven’t spoken personally for the same period. So there’s been no contact,” Nikkhah said. “There’s no chance that William and Harry are going to meet up anytime soon… There is no desire on either side to do that. You know, the brothers haven’t seen each other for such a long time and relations are as bad as they’ve ever been — non-existent.”
Harry’s wife Meghan last visited the U.K. in September 2022, and the couple’s children, Archie and Lilibet, have not been in Britain since June that year, for the queen’s platinum jubilee celebrations.
“I can’t see a world in which I would be bringing my wife and children back to the U.K. at this point. And the things they’re going to miss, well, everything… I miss the U.K.,” Harry told CBS News’ news partner network BBC News in May, after losing a legal challenge to have state-provided security increased during visits to his home country.
“I don’t know how much longer my father has. He won’t speak to me because of this security stuff… Of course, some members of my family will never forgive me for writing a book. Of course, they will never forgive lots of things. But I would love a reconciliation with my family.”

Peter Dinklage calls ‘Roofman’ set a ‘gold mine’ for him

Parts of Roofman, the new film of Peter Dinklage, are shot on the set in a Toys “R” Us store, a chain of toy stores in Canada.
The Game of Thrones alum plays a store manager, but outside of the role, he says the shooting at the site was particularly useful for him and his cast.
Explaining why, Peter says he and his co-stars Channing Tatum and Kirsten Dunst are parents, so “for all of us with children, it was a gold mine because they really filled that Toys “R” Us.”
He shares the set was a renovated, though abandoned, store, “It was an abandoned old Toys “R” Us that they renovated and made it into a present day back in the film time Toys “R” Us. And yeah, that was our wrap gift.”
The Roofman’s synopsis reads that it “follows Jeffrey Manchester (Channing Tatum), a former Army Ranger and struggling father who turns to robbing McDonald’s restaurants by cutting holes in their roofs, earning him the nickname: Roofman.”
“After escaping prison, he secretly lives inside a Toys “R” Us for six months, surviving undetected while planning his next move.”
“But when he falls for Leigh (Kirsten Dunst), a divorced mom drawn to his undeniable charm, his double life begins to unravel, setting off a compelling and suspenseful game of cat and mouse as his past closes in,” the logline said.
Roofman bows out in theatres Oct. 10.

Justin Bieber gives fans sweet treat with rare glimpses of son Jack

Justin Bieber gave fans a rare look at his son, Jack Blues, in a series of Instagram posts on Monday.
The 31-year-old pop star, who has nearly 300 million followers, uploaded photos of himself kayaking with his one-year-old son, who celebrated his first birthday on August 22.
Bieber sported pieces from his SKYLRK fashion line, including a red sweatshirt and matching beanie, while also sharing close-up selfies highlighting his beard and nose piercing.
Hailey Bieber added to the family updates by posting her own snapshot of Jack on her Instagram Story.
The couple, who will mark their seventh wedding anniversary this week, have remained protective of their child’s privacy, avoiding public photos that reveal his face.
The posts came shortly after Bieber released his latest album, SWAG II, which heavily references his marriage to Hailey.
The project follows July’s surprise drop of SWAG and coincided with Hailey’s billion-dollar Rhode skincare partnership with e.l.f. Beauty.
Jack also made a brief appearance in the visualizer for Bieber’s track Yukon, giving fans their first glimpse of the couple’s son beyond carefully curated family photos.
