NORTH CAROLINA (FNN) – Roberta Flack, the Grammy-winning singer and pianist known for her intimate vocal style and timeless hits such as “Killing Me Softly with His Song” and “The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face,” died Monday at the age of 88, her publicist confirmed.

Flack’s career took off in the early 1970s, and she became one of the era’s most influential recording artists. Though she rose to fame in her early 30s, it was Clint Eastwood’s 1971 film “Play Misty for Me” that propelled her into the spotlight. Eastwood featured “The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face” during a memorable and intimate love scene between him and actress Donna Mills, turning the song into a chart-topping hit.

Her soulful and soothing voice, combined with her skills as a pianist, earned Flack widespread acclaim. She went on to win numerous awards, including several Grammy Awards, and left an indelible mark on the music industry. “Killing Me Softly with His Song,” released in 1973, became another signature track, winning the Grammy Award for Record of the Year and solidifying her status as a music legend.

Flack’s influence extended far beyond the 1970s. Her music continued to resonate with audiences, and her legacy lived on through generations of artists who drew inspiration from her style and storytelling through song.

Details regarding memorial services have not yet been announced.

DAYTONA, Fla. (FNN NEWS) — Former Florida Representative Matt Gaetz fired back at Reacher star Alan Ritchson on Thursday after Ritchson referred to him as “that motherf—-r” in a recent GQ interview.

Ritchson, promoting the new season of his Amazon Prime show, described Gaetz as an “adversary” from their childhood. However, Gaetz took to X (formerly Twitter) to offer a different perspective.

“Hollywood apparently changes people!” Gaetz wrote. “We were not ‘adversaries’ as I won debate championships, and Alan did more acting stuff. As I recall, his older brother Eric won more often than Alan did.”

Gaetz also painted a friendlier picture of their past, mentioning Ritchson’s mother, Vicke, who worked as a computer lab monitor. “She loved me,” he said.

The former congressman even shared a personal anecdote: “At her invitation, I went to his dad’s retirement party from the Air Force. It was at a karaoke bar called ‘Lewbos’ in Niceville, where his dad sang ‘Sitting on the Dock of the Bay.’”

The heated exchange between Gaetz and Ritchson adds an unexpected twist to the actor’s press tour, highlighting the stark contrast in their recollections of the past.
