Picture this: A punk rock icon who wasn't even a natural blonde.

Debbie Harry became a rock icon as the lead singer and co-founder of the band Blondie, but here are some things you might not know about this natural redhead.

As ‘A Christmas Story’ has grown in popularity, so has one of its most recognizable props: the leg lamp, that glowing gam otherwise known as “a major award.”

For a time, David Bowie stored his urine in his refrigerator out of fear that a wizard might steal it.

Dolly Parton is loved, lauded, and larger than life, and she might just be the most charitable celebrity on the planet.

Bob Dylan—the legendary artist formerly known as Robert Zimmerman—has spent the past 50-plus years trying to keep a low profile.

In Japan, open-mouthed, teeth-exposed laughter is considered impolite—and very unladylike.

Just because you’ve mastered the art of not looking like an uncultured, uncouth slob in your own country doesn’t mean those skills translate to the rest of the world.

“Girl Groups” is one of those musical genres that’s difficult to define, but that has been incredibly influential on pop music as a whole throughout the decades.

Ahhh, the marriage proposal. Never has a tradition been surrounded by so much anxiety, planning, and the potential to be embarrassing and, well, even downright cringe-worthy.

The Backstreet Boys—Brian Littrell, Nick Carter, A. J. McLean, Howie Dorough, and Kevin Richardson—photographed in 1995.
