Pink Floyd releases new music in support of Ukraine

Members of "Pink Floyd" have reunited to create a song for Ukraine.

David Gilmour and Nick Mason teamed up with Ukrainian singer Andriy Khlyvnyuk of the band "BoomBox" to record "Hey Hey Rise Up."

This is Pink Floyd's first music in three decades.

The song features Khlyvnyuk singing a patriotic Ukrainian song. A video of Khlyvnyuk was recorded in Kyiv and posted on social media.

In an interview with the Associated Press, Gilmour said Khlyvnyuk was in the hospital recovering from a mortar shrapnel injury when he called him.

Gilmour said, "I played him a little bit of the song down the phone line, and he gave me his blessing. We both hope to do something together in person in the future."

All proceeds go to Ukraine Humanitarian Relief Fund.

Have a listen to the powerful song below.

Pete Davidson inspires "Short A$$ Movies" category on Netflix

You can thank Pete Davidson for a new category on Netflix dedicated to short movies.

The addition was inspired by Davidson's musical sketch on Saturday Night Live, complaining about how long movie run times are.

It's understandable. It's tough to keep your eyes open for three hours at the night's end. Ahem… "The Irishman."

In the sketch, he says he wants a "short a$$" movie, not a "long A$$ movie."

"Night after night, there's only one kind of movie I'm always looking for, and that's a short-ass movie. A really short movie like at most an hour 40." he sings.

Netflix has run with the idea and created the "Short A$$ Movie catalogue" that features films no longer than 90 minutes.

Although Netflix says they already had a 90 minute or less category, they renamed it to have some fun from the sketch.

Some movies in the category include "The Grudge", Rambo, Happy Gilmore, Zoolander, and tons others.

New Doc bursts your bubble about the beauty industry

Every day we shower, cleanse, moisturize, do our nails, prime, style, and heat our hair, all in the name of beauty and self-care.

A new documentary series "Not So Pretty" says that self-care could cause you more harm than good.

The HBO series dives deep into the dark side of the beauty industry and the products we use to maintain our youthfulness.

Narrated by Keke Palmer, the four-part series takes you through the workings of the multi-billion-dollar cosmetics industry.

The true shocker comes as they expose what's in your beauty products and the incredibly relaxed regulations in their distribution.

The docuseries premieres on HBO Max on April 14.

Watch the trailer below.
