Apple Music Ranks Top 10 Albums of All Time, Pixar Undergoes Mass Layoffs, Milo Ventimiglia Reunites with This is Us Kids
Apple Music reveals their top 10 albums of all time. The 1998 album The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill earned the #1 spot, sitting alongside Michael Jackson's Thriller at #2. Abbey Road by the Beatles ranked #3, and Prince's Purple Rain came in at #4. Other artists and albums featured on the list include Frank Ocean for Blonde , Stevie Wonder for Songs in the Key of Life , Kendrick Lamar with good kid, m.A.A.d city (Deluxe Version) , Amy Winehouse's Back to Black , Nirvana's Nevermind , and Beyoncé's Lemonade . Pixar lays off 14% of employees and announces cutback on Disney+ material. The cuts come in an effort to return the company to its pre-pandemic production success with a focus on quality over quantity. The studio, along with Walt Disney Company CEO Bob Iger, look to focus on theatrical releases as opposed to the mass distribution of content on streaming. Mass layoffs have been looming over Pixar since last year but were delayed due to production scheduling. Milo Ventimiglia reunites with This Is Us family to celebrate on-screen son's graduation. The actor was pictured with This Is Us co-stars Niles Fitch and Hannah Zeile at Fitch's graduation from the University of Southern California. Ventimiglia played Jack Pearson, the father of Fitch and Zeile's characters, on the NBC hit series which aired its final episode in 2022. While TV mom Mandy Moore did not attend the ceremony, she sent Fitch a message of congratulations on his Instagram, writing 'Go Niles! Unbelievable. #proudfakemom.'
