Even the most brilliant musicals can't be completely full of hits.

Whether it's a song that feels out of place in the story or that clearly isn't as up to par with the rest of the show, it's not unusual to have at least one song you skip in an otherwise fantastic—even iconic—musical.

Ann Coulter Faces Fierce Backlash After Saying 'We Didn't Kill Enough Indians' In Deleted Post

Far-right provocateur Ann Coulter is facing fierce criticism after she made a genocidal remark in a now-deleted post on X in response to University of Minnesota professor and Navajo Nation member Melanie Yazzie's speech about colonization.

She also said that the United States is the "greatest predator empire that has ever existed" and said it should be dismantled.
