The doors Kandy Muse opened for backpack skirts — like the one she wore during her infamous *Untucked* clash with Tamisha Iman — can still be felt on the *RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars 7* runway, and the "Producer" herself has something to say about it.

But before diving into our latest recap of *AS7* on *EW's BINGE* podcast (below), the season 13 runner-up exclusively tells EW how she patched things up with Tamisha at RuPaul's DragCon L.A. last month, following a turbulent period in the costars' relationship throughout most of 2021.

"I wasn't sure how it was going to go between me and Tamisha, because I knew we had to do the queen walk, and we hadn't spoken since the whole blocked-on-Instagram situation," Kandy recalls of lining up to walk the pink carpet atop the main floor at the drag convention. "We were back stage, I looked at her, she looked at me, we just went up to each other, hugged each other and were like, 'Hey girl, how have you been?'"

Kandy says fellow cast member Denali then suggested that she stand with Tamisha as the cast hit the carpet, when she remembers Tamisha asking her if they wanted to "walk together" in front of fans for the first time since they publicly butted heads across social media following their iconic argument on *Untucked*.

"I was like, 'Yeah, you know what, you go out there first, pause on the carpet, then I'll go out there and we'll hold hands.' It really was a moment," Kandy says. "For the rest of that weekend, I kept popping back up and she kept popping back up at my booth and [we were] having a good time. We're in the works of working out something together for the future.... absolutely, why not, I think people love the dynamic of me and Tamisha for whatever reason, so, let's make it work. Life is too short. It's not personal, it's just drag!"

Turning her attention to *All Stars 7*, Kandy also says she got a kick out of judge Michelle Visage praising last week's challenge winner Jaida Essence Hall for using bags on her skirt over a year after the season 13 finalist memorably hot-glued a bunch of backpacks to her waist for her ball challenge back in 2021.

"I thought Jaida looked incredible, and when Michelle [asked] who would've thought to put backpacks on a skirt on a ball episode, which is exactly what I did on my ball episode, I was like, hmm, interesting," Kandy says with a laugh, going on to reveal that she had initially begun to construct an entirely different outfit made of plaid acrylic bags, but decided against it at the last minute as she pivoted to the colorful backpack ensemble she created.

She says the look is still in her closet, though the fragile piece is "hanging on by a thread, or by glue," and might only make a comeback if her planned collaboration with Tamisha ever comes to fruition.

Kandy ultimately feels that the *All Stars 7* ball ranks as "cohesively, one of the best balls" in franchise her-story — even with the threat of season 7 winner Violet Chachki booting fan-favorite looks, like she recently did to Raja.

"I think that it's hilarious, I think that people take the opinions of other people way too literal and serious," Kandy says of the drama surrounding Raja getting "booted" on the *Fashion Photo RuView* recap show Violet hosts with season 13's Gottmik. "To me, a boot from Violet Chachki is just a boot from Violet Chachki. It doesn't change or make anything. Fashion, to me, is art, and art is subjective. Some people thought that my alien look was campy, some people hated the alien look, the beauty is behind the beholder's eye — or whatever the saying is."

Monét X Change — beloved sponge queen — is soaking up all of the chaotic vibes after being blocked from winning another Legendary Legend Star for the first time on *RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars 7*.

Though she stirred the pot by forming an alliance with fellow* All Stars 4 *winner Trinity The Tuck back on episode 1 of the first all-winners competition in *Drag Race* her-story, Monét says in an exclusive EW's BINGE podcast interview (below) that she suspects an alternate, secret alliance is brewing among her sisters outside the *AS4* coalition — specifically, as she says, including *Drag Race UK*'s The Vivienne, who handed Monét the Platinum Plunger on Friday's episode.

"Jaida did hand it to her, so, maybe they have some situation working that I'm not privy to, and I'm very curious to see what ends up happening," Monét says of the moment Jaida Essence Hall handed The Vivienne a xylophone prop from off-stage to enhance her lip-sync performance at the end of the episode, which helped her win the dance-off and ultimately gave her the ability to block Monét. "We haven't seen it yet, I don't know where we're at or what you've seen or what makes the cut, but I definitely thought there was a smoker's alliance going on, and this was furthering my point."

When asked if she knew that Jaida was going to spruce up The Vivienne's performance with the prop hand-off, Monét maintains that she had no idea the exchange would happen.

Jaida Essence Hall gives The Vivienne a xylophone during her 'RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars 7' lip-sync.

"I think that it's part of the alliance. Maybe it did happen, but I did not see any talks of them giving someone a xylophone, about who's going to do the *American Bandstand*," Monét explains. "So, I think there's some alliance that we're going to find out about, and people will see that I was not the only one playing the game."

While she still has her eyes on Jaida, Monét counts The Vivienne out of her plan for an alliance, joking that she "will absolutely come for that bitch" after the British queen's latest move.

"Now that I have been blocked, I don't feel the weight of having to be so crazy with the alliance. I'm still going to be working, but not as intensely as I was," finishes Monét. "Maybe a little twist might come that might force me to play hard again, but who knows?"

Are You A Rich Retiree Or Just Upper-Middle Class? Here's The Net Worth That Separates The Two

When you're earning a paycheck, it's easy to gauge how you stack up. Salary charts tell you exactly where you fall on the income ladder. But retirement rewrites the math. Without annual earnings, the question shifts from how much you make to how much you've built. And that's where things get tricky — especially for retirees trying to figure out whether they're "upper-middle class" or actually "wealthy."

To find that line, the most reliable place to start is with data, not vibes. The U.S. Census Bureau divides American households into quintiles — five equal groups, each representing 20% of households ranked by income.

Don't Miss:

Deloitte's #1 Fastest-Growing Software Company Lets Users Earn Money Just by Scrolling — Accredited Investors Can Still Get In at $0.50/Share.

Missed Nvidia and Tesla? RAD Intel Could Be the Next AI Powerhouse — Invest Now at Just $0.81 a Share

While the agency doesn't officially assign class labels, this breakdown lets analysts estimate them. Using this structure, the middle 20%, roughly the 40th to 60th percentiles, is the "middle class." The next 20%, between the 60th and 80th percentiles, is the "upper-middle class." Above that — the 80th percentile and higher — you've entered upper-class territory.

For retirees, income only tells half the story. The more revealing measure is net worth, and for that, the go-to sources are the Federal Reserve's Survey of Consumer Finances and the DQYDJ Net Worth Calculator, which translates that survey data into percentile rankings by age. It's the most current snapshot we have until the Fed releases new data in 2026.

Among households aged 65 to 69, entering the upper-middle class means having a net worth around $550,000, while those aged 70 to 74 hit that mark closer to $700,000.

Trending: Accredited Investors Can Now Tap Into the $36 Trillion Home Equity Market — Without Buying a Single Property

Crossing into the upper class starts near $1.5 million at ages 65–69 and about $1.65 million for 70–74.

And if you're wondering where "wealthy" truly begins, the top 5% of retirees — roughly the 95th percentile — starts around $7 million in net worth for both age groups.

These numbers include more than just investments. They factor in primary home equity, which can be a major driver of wealth for older Americans. Many retirees own their homes outright, and with decades of appreciation baked in, real estate often explains the leap between upper-middle and upper-class net worth. A paid-off home in a high-demand area can push an otherwise modest portfolio into seven-figure territory.

The difference between owning and renting is huge. According to the SCF, the typical U.S. homeowner has a median net worth of $396,200, compared with just $10,400 for the average renter. In other words, homeowners held nearly 38 times more wealth, showing how much long-term homeownership can shape financial stability in retirement.

See Also: Warren Buffett once said, "If you don't find a way to make money while you sleep, you will work until you die." Here's how you can earn passive income with just $100.

Still, wealth on paper doesn't always equal comfort in practice. Lifestyle, debt levels, and spending habits play a huge role in how "rich" retirement feels. A retiree with a paid-off home, low expenses, and steady income from Social Security and investments can live just as well — or better — than someone with double the net worth but higher costs and obligations. Comparison may be the thief of joy, but context is its antidote.

So before chasing an arbitrary number, focus on what actually matters. Keep debt low, protect your savings, budget realistically, and give your money room to grow. A solid financial plan can stretch far beyond the percentile charts. And if you're unsure where you stand, consult a financial advisor who can tailor strategies to your goals — not just your percentile. Because in retirement, wealth isn't just about how much you have. It's about how well it works for you.

Disney stock has lagged the stock market year-to-date. Shares started the year at $111 and have crawled up to $113 per share. The company continues to exhibit solid sequential growth for its streaming subscribers. Disney reported 180.7 million Disney+ and Hulu subscriptions in Q2 FY25, which is a 2.5 million increase from Q1 FY25.

However, linear networks revenue dropped by 13% year-over-year, and that represents more than 10% of Disney's total revenue. ESPN also had lower operating results year-over-year. Disney Parks continue to be a big draw, with revenue up by 9% year-over-year.

These results paint a mixed picture for a stock that has been mostly flat year-to-date. Shares are also down over the past five years, but it's important to assess any stock based on what it can do in the future. Several analysts shared their thoughts about Disney stock and where they think it's heading.

Analyst Consensus

Most Wall Street analysts are bullish on Disney, as it has a Buy rating and an average price target of $130.73 per share, suggesting a 16% upside from current levels. Recent price targets have also been bullish, with the three most recent ratings averaging $130.33 per share.

Needham analyst Laura Martin reiterated her Buy rating for Disney in September with a $125 price target. She believes Disney will have lower income, citing the company's comments on the Content, Sales & Licensing segment during the earnings call. However, she believes revenue will still be up year-over-year and did not change her forecast.

Rosenblatt Analyst Barton Crockett was also bullish on Disney stock, giving it a Buy rating in August. He assigned a $141 price target, which was a slight boost from his previous $140 price target. Most of the recent ratings have been Buy or Outperform.

More recently, Wells Fargo issued a bullish note to investors and a $159 price target.

"We think Disney's assets are growing and maturing, creating more predictability in EPS upside that will engender a rerating," the bank said.

Assessing Bullish Sentiment

Disney has received many Buy ratings and very few Hold ratings. Even though some parts of the business are shrinking, Disney posted rising revenue and net income. The continued growth comes as Disney suddenly trades at an 18 P/E ratio. It has a more attractive P/E ratio than more than half of media stocks, according to Guru Focus.

Disney's vast content library and rising subscriber numbers are two additional catalysts that have sparked a flurry of Buy ratings from analysts. The stock's low year-to-date gains combined with the reasonable valuation suggest that Disney shares can stage a rally on moderate results.

For You: 5 Clever Ways Retirees Are Earning Up To $1K Per Month From Home

GOBankingRates spoke with Joe F. Schmitz, founder of Peak Retirement Planning, to share underrated cities that could be perfect for future retirees. These five cities may not be on most people's minds, making them the perfect place for future retirees to enjoy their golden years.

Pittsburgh

Pittsburgh is one of the overlooked cities for those who want to retire in the northeast. The city has plenty of entertainment and adventure activities, especially if you love sports. From historic architecture to museums and local festivals, the city offers a well-rounded lifestyle.

"From a financial standpoint, Pittsburgh has affordable housing, great healthcare, and the state of Pennsylvania has lower income tax rates compared to other states," said Schmitz. However, "retirees should be aware that there are complexities when it comes to sales tax, inheritance tax and property tax, as these are significant sources of income for the state."

Raleigh, North Carolina

According to Schmitz, "Raleigh has a number of cultural facilities and museums deeply rooted in their historic landmarks. Locals enjoy the beautiful weather surrounded by picturesque landscapes."

The cost of living aligns with the national average, and access to public transportation makes it easy to get around. While it's not directly on the coast, its proximity to North Carolina's beaches offers the best of both worlds for retirees wanting occasional ocean views without beachfront property prices.

Greenville, South Carolina

The year-round mild weather and a lower cost of living will likely make Greenville a home for many retirees in the future. The city's walkable downtown filled with restaurants, vibrant arts scene and several outdoor recreation activities make Greenville a more attractive retirement spot.

"Downtown has seen a rise in national presence for large Fortune 500 companies without losing that southern charm and small-town feel," Schmitz added.

Fort Wayne, Indiana

If you want a quiet suburban life with access to essential amenities, Fort Wayne delivers. This Indiana city is family-friendly and filled with parks and trails, and housing is still affordable.

"Fort Wayne is a great spot to take the grandkids and enjoy time with the family, all while in the heart of the Midwest," Schmitz said.

Grand Rapids, Michigan

Surrounded by nature and set along Michigan's longest river, Grand Rapids is a peaceful, scenic destination that's perfect for retirees looking for a slower lifestyle. It offers a quiet retreat with access to hiking, fishing and small-town culture.

"Grand Rapids is a great place for people looking for a quiet getaway in the woods," said Schmitz.

While not as flashy as larger metro areas, its calm atmosphere and strong sense of community make it stand out.

Just because Bob Dylan is considered an icon doesn't mean the legendary singer-songwriter didn't have musical heroes of his own. He's often praised such influences as Woody Guthrie and Hank Williams, raving about his favorite artists just as any other fan might. In fact, the loss of one of those cherished musicians left him so devastated he couldn't speak to anyone for days.

It's no secret to longtime Dylan followers that he was completely enamored with Elvis Presley, and even spoke about hearing his music for the first time as a life-changing moment.

"When I first heard Elvis Presley's voice I just knew that I wasn't going to work for anybody and nobody was going to be my boss. Hearing him for the first time was like busting out of jail," Dylan once said, per Untold Dylan.

So it's no surprise that when Presley died in 1977 at the age of 42, Dylan felt the loss deeply.

"I had a breakdown. I broke down. One of the very few times," he said later, per Far Out magazine.

"I went over my whole life…my whole childhood. I didn't talk to anyone for a week after Elvis died," he continued. "If it wasn't for Elvis and Hank Williams, I couldn't be doing what I do today."

Dylan even called Presley's recording of his song "Tomorrow Is a Long Time" the "the one recording I treasure the most" in a 1969 interview with Rolling Stone. Presley also covered several other Dylan songs, including "Don't Think Twice, It's Alright," "I Shall Be Released," and "Blowin' in the Wind."

Why Bob Dylan and Elvis Presley never met

Considering he was such a big fan, one might have expected Dylan to jump at the chance to meet the King of Rock and Roll, but that's not what happened at all.

"I never met Elvis because I didn't want to meet him," Dylan once said, according to American Songwriter. "Two or three times, we were up in Hollywood, and he had sent some of the Memphis Mafia down to where we were to bring us up to see Elvis, but none of us went."

"I don't know if I would have wanted to see Elvis like that," Dylan continued. "I wanted to see the powerful, mystical Elvis that had crash-landed from a burning star onto American soil. The Elvis that was bursting with life. That's the Elvis that inspired us to all the possibilities of life. And that Elvis was gone, had left the building."

Even if Presley's influence over Dylan had waned by then, his legacy remained strong with the folk icon...and still remains part of his work today.

Hollywood dads are welcoming kids later in life.

Some of the industry's biggest stars have become fathers in their 60s, 70s and even 80s – with Al Pacino welcoming the birth of his fourth child in 2023 at 83.

Others, including Robert De Niro and Kelsey Grammer, became fathers again in their 70s.

Here is a list of celebrity dads who welcomed children later in life.

Al Pacino and Noor Alfallah welcomed their son together when he was 83 years old.

Al Pacino welcomed his fourth child, a son named Roman, in June 2023, when he was 83 years old, making him the oldest new dad in Hollywood.

Read On The Fox News App

"Al loves being a father and always has. He is excited," a source told People at the time. "Being a parent is and always was an important part of Al's life."

He welcomed Roman with his then-girlfriend Noor Alfallah, but confirmed to People in October 2024 that they had broken up and that he no longer lived with his son.

In addition to Roman, Pacino is also the father of Julie Marie, 36, whom he shares with his ex-girlfriend Jan Tarrant, and twins Anton and Olivia, 24, with ex Beverly D'Angelo.

De Niro and his girlfriend Tiffany Chen welcomed their daughter, Gia, in May 2023.

Robert De Niro revealed he had his seventh baby, a daughter named Gia, during an interview with ET Canada in May 2023. When the interviewer asked how his six children are, De Niro corrected them, saying "Seven, actually," adding, "I just had a baby."

It was later confirmed that Gia was born in April 2023. When speaking about becoming a father again at the premiere of his film, "About My Father," the actor told Extra, "I'm ok with it. I'm good with it."

"[When I] look at her, everything else goes away. So it's a great joy and relief to just be with her in the moment," he later shared with Rolling Stone. "[She is] half-Chinese. I want to try to teach her Chinese and show her nursery rhymes in English and Chinese."

In addition to Gia, whom he shares with girlfriend Tiffany Chen, De Niro is also a father to Drena, 54, and son Raphael, 48, who he shares with his first wife, Diahnne Abbott, twins Julian and Airyn, 30, with his former girlfriend Toukie Smith, and son Elliot, 27, and daughter Helen Grace, 13, with his ex-wife, Grace Hightower.

Jagger welcomed his eighth child in December 2016 at the age of 73. It was his first with Melanie Hamrick.

Mick Jagger's eighth child, son Deveraux, was born in December 2016, when the musician was 73 years old. He shares Deveraux with his girlfriend, Melanie Hamrick.

When speaking with The Guardian in October 2023, Jagger joked that becoming a parent again is "not like riding a bike," adding "you get a bit out of practice." In addition to Deveraux, Jagger is also a father to Karis, 54, whom he shares with Marsha Hunt; Jade, 53, with ex-wife Bianca; Elizabeth, 41, James, 40, Georgia May, 33, and Gabriel, 27, with ex-wife Jerry Hall, and Lucas, 26, with Luciana Morad Gimenez.

"The more children you have, the more laissez-faire you get about them, to be honest," he told the outlet. "And it depends on the child – they have their own personalities and you can mould them to a certain extent, but you see their likes and dislikes and encourage them to do things they gravitate towards. It's fun to have children, at any age."

"But if you're working, and always away, you don't get to enjoy it quite as much," he added, before noting that when Deveraux was born, "I wasn't working so much, so I was able to spend more time. And then we had the lockdown – he's only six, and two of those years I did almost nothing [with the band]."

Katharine McPhee and David Foster welcomed their son Rennie in February 2021.

Grammy Award-winning musician, David Foster, welcomed his fourth child, and only son, Rennie, in February 2021, when he was 71 years old.

When speaking to People in January 2023, Foster opened up about having a son, and addressed criticism from the public about having a child while in his 70s.

"I think that I can offer one thing to Rennie even though I won't be around when he's 50 or 40 even, or 30 maybe," he said. "I think I can offer him wisdom from my 72 years on the planet. And maybe that's not a bad trade-off. I hope so."

Foster shares Rennie with his current wife, Katherine McPhee, and is also a father to Allison, 54, who was adopted at birth; Amy, 51, who he shares with ex-wife, B.J. Cook; and Sara, 43, Erin, 40, and Jordan, 37, who he shares with his second wife, Rebecca Dyer.

Grammer's fourth wife is Kayte Walsh. The two have three children together.

During an appearance on the "Pod Meets World" podcast, Kelsey Grammer shared that he and wife Kayte Walsh recently welcomed their fourth child together — a son named Christopher.

The couple also share Faith, 12, and sons Gabriel, 10, and James, 8. He is also a father to daughter Spencer, 41, with his first wife, Doreen Alderman; daughter Greer, 33, with ex Barrie Buckner; and daughter Mason, 23, and son Jude, 20, with ex Camille Grammer.

News of his new baby comes shortly after the "Frasier" star opened up about his recent realization that he may have "neglected" his older children, telling People in May: "I'm trying to make up for a little of it now. I'm still their dad, so you can always have [a] chance to show up."

"I probably should have been a little more clear and maybe less tolerant with the older ones," he said. "I'm pretty tolerant with the young ones, but I'm clear about how there's certain expectations and certain ways to navigate through a social situation: keep it close to the vest and play it straight, and you're going to be well-served in your life. I'm a little more specific with them about doing their studies and being prepared. [I tell them], 'What's your job in life? Showing up.'"

Richard Gere and wife Alejandra Silva have two young sons together.

Billy Joel and his wife have two daughters. The younger one was born when he was 68.

Billy Joel welcomed his third daughter, Remy Anne, 8, in October 2017 with his fourth wife, Alexis Roderick, when he was 68. He is also father to his and Roderick's older daughter, Della Rose, 10, and his daughter Alexa, 39, who he shares with his ex-wife, model Christie Brinkley.

When speaking with People in July, Joel opened up about his desire to become a father, telling the outlet that being a father "means a lot" to him, adding, "I didn't have a dad, so it was very important for me to be a dad."

"I love all of my girls. And poetic justice, I had all girls, of course, but I'm really enjoying this a lot," he said. "It's something I was looking forward to all my life, and here I am."

Martin and his wife welcomed their first child in December 2012, when he was 67.

Actor Steve Martin became a father for the first time when he was 67 years old, when his wife, writer Anne Stringfield, gave birth to their daughter, Mary, in December 2012.

The "Only Murders in the Building" star spoke with Vanity Fair in November 2016 about what it was like becoming a father later in life, telling the outlet, "it's fantastic."

"You have all the time in the world. You're all set and secure in life, and you're not building your career, so you have a lot of time," he said. "When I was younger, I was selfish and focused on my career… Now I'm just hanging around the house playing with [my daughter]. It's great."
