Hollywood child stardom has taken its toll on many actors through the decades. Lani O'Grady, for one, found fame in the 1970s on the TV family series, Eight is Enough.

Grady, was a talent agent who represented several child actors. But Lani, who would also eventually become an agent, died in 2001 just one week before what would have been her 47th birthday.

Once a staple on cruise ships, libraries are becoming a relic of the past, particularly on Carnival Cruise Line vessels. The cruise line has confirmed that it no longer includes libraries in the design of new ships, a decision that has sparked both disappointment and understanding among passengers.

Metal vocalists might not show up very often on The Voice, but that’s not to say that metal vocalists can’t have singing voices on par with the best blues, R&B, or soul singers. Sure, there are metal bands that we love despite their singers being technically awful (coughcoughDaveMustainecoughcough), but for every one of them, there’s someone like metal legend Ronnie James Dio who had a vocal range of over four octaves. Maybe it is time they had a metal coach on The Voice. Is Sebastian Bach busy with anything? Probably not. But, while Opeth may be considered one of the greatest progressive metal bands of all time, vocalist Mikael Åkerfeldt says he doesn’t think of himself as much of a singer.
