Us Weekly's Emily Longeretta discusses "Black Panther's" record-smashing opening weekend. The film has raked in $235 million since hitting theaters last Friday.
Longeretta says the combination of a great story, a mostly black cast, a black director, and strong female characters all led to the film's success. Most people don't know the story of "Black Panther," Longeretta explains, leading to increased interest.
The movie struck a cultural chord since we saw an African American actor play a superhero.
Brazilian actress and writer Suzana Pires spoke with Cheddar News about her nonprofit for women, how Sharon Stone wrote a foreword in her new book and what it's like being a telenovela star in Latin America.
Melissa Marra-Alvarez, curator of education and research, and Elizabeth Way, associate curator of costume, both with the Museum at The Fashion Institute of Technology, joined Cheddar News to discuss how food and food culture impact fashion.
