After working together for the movie franchise "The Expendables," Arnold Schwarzenegger is expressing his admiration for co-star Bruce Willis as the lauded action star retires. In an interview with CinemaBlend, the "FUBAR" actor said he thinks Willis is "fantastic." As the dominant action stars of the '80's and '90's, Schwarzenegger and Willis, along with "Rambo" actor Sylvester Stallone, were considered to be rivals in the acting world and part of a "holy trinity" in the action genre. In March 2022, Willis' family — wife Emma Heming Willis, ex-wife Demi Moore and his three daughters with Moore — announced that the actor was retiring from acting after being diagnosed with aphasia, which is caused by damage to the part of the brain that controls language. Willis last starred in "Assassin," which premiered this March. Earlier this year, the family shared that his condition "progressed," leading to a more specific diagnosis of frontotemporal dementia.
Some fans who are finally getting to see Taylor Swift perform live have a problem. They can’t remember the show! There are multiple reports that some fans are experiencing signs of amnesia after attending the concert. Fans describe it as being separated from reality and then literally not being able to recall much, if anything, of the show. Taylor didn’t work magic on the fans, this is a common problem when emotions are at a high pitch. Neuroscientist Dr. Dean Burnett, honorary research associate at Cardiff University, explains “As well as being exhausting for the brain, it’s going to mean all the things you experience will have a high emotional quality, which means nothing ‘stands out,’ and that’s important if you want to retrieve a memory later.” The way to prevent “concert amnesia” is to lower expectations and try to remember this is a moment you DO want to remember.
