While they might have some catchy tunes, some bands are really overrated. For example, take Imagine Dragons and Maroon 5, both very accomplished bands but, listening closely, people find songs in their respective albums to sound very similar. From the clumsy rock bands of the 70s to the tacky pop music of the 21st century, here are some of the most overrated bands.

One thing we never notice is that bands become popular without the vast majority even knowing. They are significant in the lives of a huge group of people and a ripple effect creates the growth in their following. Sure enough, you know that these bands are overrated, but they make sense why they made it on the list.

Do you remember when you were young and liked to hear that you looked older? Time really does change everything. As you grow older, it resembles an insult more than it does a compliment.

To be fair, it is not easy to keep up with the trends because they tend to change in no time at all. Fashion constantly evolves, but we drew up this list to guide you through what you need to know. At the very least, this is going to help you figure out which fads to avoid right this moment. Read on to see if you’re in a wardrobe emergency!

The original Star Wars trilogy’s production was nothing short of a miracle. The cast and crew photographs below clearly demonstrate how the making of these legendary films was just as fascinating as the plot itself. When George Lucas created Industrial Light & Magic in 1975, it appears that he was looking far beyond his Star Wars stories.

Lucas was at the vanguard of visual effects development in Hollywood through this business, and ILM played a significant role in the famous effects of Star Wars, both real and digital. Before CGI, Lucas built almost all of the space stations and vehicles in Star Wars by constructing illusions with miniature models.

Everyone Knew Devlar Dopson

Everyone in the neighborhood knew the local garbage man, Delvar Dopson. What they didn’t know was he had a number one fan, three-year-old Brooklyn Andracke. So, when Dopson hopped out of his truck one morning to meet the little girl, a neighbor knew she had to get it on camera. Little did she know what was actually happening.

When farmer Ben saw that his horse was pregnant, he was full of joy. It meant that he was about to have another horse, which could lead to more financial wealth if it was a ‘good’ horse. After waiting for months, the moment was nearly there. The belly was heavy and the horse was showing signs of going into labor.

The horse was about to give birth. But strangely enough, it refused to give birth even with a giant stomach. Ben decided to go to the local vet to get an ultrasound. When the vet saw the ultrasound he immediately called the police. But what was wrong with the horse? And what did Ben do wrong? Let’s find out about this curious case…

If your mom’s photos from the ’80s are any indication, beauty trends come in and out of popularity throughout the decades. What is seen as fresh and chic one year is seen as passé and tired the next, but that’s part of the fun. You try on something new, have fun with whatever new trend “It Girls” and A-listers are wearing, and then wash it off and wait for the next fad.

Our diet determines our health, vitality, and the risk of certain diseases. But some people don’t know that food can also slow down–and speed up–aging. “Can you look older because you’re eating [badly]?” asks Dr. Timothy Harlan. “Absolutely.”

Certain foods can create wrinkles on your face, making you look older. Others significantly increase your risk of death, and some even shrink the chromosomes that control aging. If you want to extend your life, limit these foods. At best, they make you look older, and at worst, they shorten your life.

Try Not To Char Your Grilled Meat

When meats are charred with high heat, they receive toxins. According to the Journal of the American Dietetic Association, grill heat creates advanced glycation end products (conveniently shortened to AGEs). These AGEs accelerate aging by inflaming the body.

Study author Dr. Jaime Uribarri says that too many AGEs may lead to diabetes and chronic kidney disease. The good news? Black pepper can reduce the amount of these carcinogenic compounds, say researchers at Kansas University. Add some black pepper and turn down the grill temperature.

If you drink the wrong type of milk, it could age your body by four years…

Acting is one of the toughest jobs in the world. While people who are not actors think that it is all too easy to just pretend to be someone else for a movie, it takes a lot of work on the actor’s end to bring to life what is essentially a character in a script. It requires training and discipline to do a proper job when you’re acting in a movie.

In the world of acting, it’s easy to take things a step too far. The emotional and physical investment actors dedicate to their roles can often leave them feeling broken inside. These stars dove into their roles without realizing the toll it would take on them later. Sometimes, you have to wonder—just how far would you push yourself to achieve a flawless performance?

In movies, naughty scenes have been used to lure people into theaters, keep them inside, and hopefully, get them to forget that everything they’ve seen is fake so they can buy the merchandise that’s tied into the movie and even get it on Blu-ray or stream it online for a pretty penny and hopefully make more and more money off your sustained arousal.

But…what if I told you that there were actors who really did do it on screen? Not some fling they had while the cameras weren’t rolling, but the so-called make-belief hanky panky that was supposed to be fake was actually real? I’m obviously not talking about dirty magazines or videos because that’s something else and it would really silly to add it here…

Boxing is one of the oldest, yet most pure forms of sport in the world. Nothing gets people going more than two people in a ring, gloves on their hands, beating each other into submission. The artfulness and the high level of athleticism on display from these athletes are second to none, and that is what keeps people coming back.

Some boxing legends have proven their talents go well beyond the ring, be it as brand ambassadors, entrepreneurs, or businessmen. They go beyond just boxing and are renowned all over the world not just as boxers, but as great people. Here’s a look at the great boxers who hold the highest net worth.

From skyscraper-height gorillas to shark-infested tornadoes, the film industry surely has served us a lot of wild stories. However, sometimes, the wildest Hollywood stories come from behind the scenes. We sometimes wonder whether or not the scenes were planned or if there was something done by accident that made the final cut.
