HighlightsCardi B gets candid about the difficult side of being a working mom.
The rapper says her children may understand her choices differently as they get older.
Her career has meant spending time away from her family.
Motherhood has not stopped Cardi from staying true to herself.

HighlightsPeter Cullen's voice reached far beyond Optimus Prime.
Some of his most surprising roles came in beloved animated favorites.
His vocal range allowed him to move effortlessly between heroes, villains and comic characters.
One of his biggest roles was not even a cartoon character.
Peter Cullen may always be remembered as the voice of Optimus Prime, but his career stretched across some of the most recognizable films, television shows and animated franchises of the past five decades.
The Canadian actor, who died at age 85 on August 26, built a remarkable career by disappearing into his characters. His deep, commanding voice became synonymous with the leader of the Autobots, while an entirely different performance made Eeyore one of the most recognizable characters in the Winnie the Pooh universe.

Ranveer Singh remains linked to the planned Shaktimaan movie.
The original star says Singh has the talent, but not the right image.
He claims he rejected a check worth crores.
He says Ranveer could play Shaktimaan’s villain instead.
The dispute pits Bollywood reinvention against childhood nostalgia.
Ranveer Singh may be one of Bollywood’s biggest stars, but getting the Shaktimaan cape could come down to something money cannot buy: the approval of the character’s original star.
The planned big-screen adaptation of India’s iconic 1990s superhero has become the subject of a heated casting and creative dispute. Sony is reportedly keen to turn Shaktimaan into a major theatrical production with Singh, but Mukesh Khanna, who played the superhero on television, says he has resisted the proposal — even at the cost of a payment worth crores.

M. Night Shyamalan has built a career around surprise. From The Sixth Sense to Unbreakable and Signs, the filmmaker has repeatedly challenged audiences with stories that refuse to follow familiar Hollywood rules. Yet when it comes to his own cinematic influences, his taste is surprisingly clear—and wonderfully uncomplicated.
For Shyamalan, there is an important difference between the best movie and his favorite movie. One represents technical mastery, tonal precision and filmmaking perfection. The other is the movie that makes him feel something.
