Most fashion mannequins are about a size 2. The Met Gala exhibit is making room for diverse bodies

NEW YORK (AP) — The upcoming fashion exhibit at the Metropolitan Museum of Art examines “the dressed body” in art over the centuries. But “Costume Art” also aims to include bodies that art has traditionally ignored. The museum has created 25 mannequins for display based on “real bodies.” Nine people modeled for the mannequins. Those include disability activist Sinéad Burke and body-positive lingerie designer Michaela Stark. Curator Andrew Bolton explains he's seeking to challenge centuries-old conceptions of beauty. The exhibit is launching with the May 4 Met Gala and opens to the public May 10. It runs until January 2027.

Book bans and attempted bans remain at record highs, with 'Sold' topping the list

NEW YORK (AP) — The American Library Association says book bans and attempted bans remain at record highs. Efforts to remove titles have become more coordinated and politicized.

Other targeted books include “The Perks of Being a Wallflower” and “Gender Queer.” The ALA recorded challenges to 4,235 different works, nearly matching last year's record. The association notes that many challenges now come from government officials and activists rather than concerned parents.

Music Review: Foo Fighters' 'Your Favorite Toy' is a high-energy return that takes some risks

Foo Fighters are back with their 12th album, “Your Favorite Toy,” and they’re having fun. After a tumultuous few years, including lineup changes and personal challenges, the band returns to their 1990s garage rock roots. The album takes a few chances with occasional distorted vocals and overly compressed sound, writes The Associated Press’ Dennis Waszak Jr. in his review. It’s a uniquely entertaining and energy-lifting listen. “Caught In The Echo” sets the tone with a thunderous start for the often fast and loud 10-song album. Tracks like “Of All People” and “If You Only Knew” showcase Grohl’s raw energy and introspection. It’s an in-your-face welcome back for the Foo Fighters. The album is out Friday.
