Entertainment news today spans grief, spectacle and resilience. In Peru, a sightseeing flight over the Nazca Lines turned tragic when a small tourist plane crashed shortly after takeoff, killing all 13 people aboard and prompting an investigation into what went wrong above one of the world’s most famous archaeological wonders. In New York, fans are mourning Vincent Pastore, the veteran character actor immortalized as “Big Pussy” on The Sopranos, who has died at 80 after a career built on unforgettable mobster roles on screen. Elsewhere, celebrity bravado gave way to chaos in Lagos, where Nigerian street-pop star Portable walked out of his boxing rematch with actor Charles Okocha and was disqualified, later apologizing while alleging foul play. And in Amsterdam, a brighter scene unfolded as hundreds of thousands lined the canals for the city’s Pride boat parade, celebrating with color and defiance.
