“Be My Baby” is as universal as a pop song can be. It’s the song that made Ronnie Spector a timeless rock & roll legend, a teenage girl from Spanish Harlem who packed a lifetime of raw power into three minutes. Ever she belted out “Be My Baby” in 1963, it’s been the classic that sums up the whole Sixties girl-group era, with Phil Spector’s lavish Wall of Sound production. But it’s never left the airwaves. On Rolling Stone’s list of the 500 Greatest Songs, “Be My Baby...

This year’s Met Gala was attended by a memorable guest list of musicians including Bad Bunny, Lana Del Rey, Dua Lipa, Janelle Monáe, and Cardi B, but Katy Perry was not among them. However, AI-generated photos of the singer on the steps of the Metropolitan Museum of Art fooled many people into thinking otherwise — including her own mother.
AI renderings of Perry “attending” the annual event quickly went viral on Monday night, purportedly showing the artist wearing a billowing floral gown that would have fit with the dress code of “The Garden of Time.” So many social media users were tricked into thinking she went to the Met Gala that Perry herself had to debunk the images.
“Couldn’t make it to the Met, had to work,” Perry clarified in the caption of an Instagram carousel featuring two of the fake photos. She also shared a text message from her mother,...

The theme of the 2024 Met Gala was “The Garden of Time” — based on a story by J.G. Ballard – but, really, the theme of all Met Galas always has been: Go big or stay home!
While there have been myriad gorgeous gowns, jewels and natty tuxes over many Met Gala years, what do the most dress-obsessed actually remember? Cher half-naked. Lady Gaga’s change of dress performance art. Billy Porter’s royal entrance in Egyptian armor and entourage. Katy Perry as a chandelier. They all proved: It doesn’t pay to stay staid — even if staid means gorgeous.
So the question comes down to: Does one do good outrageous? Or outrageously bad? Both the bad and the beautiful always get the most ink — sometimes, you can’t tell the difference. With such risky looks, it’s a toss of the coin. If you’re Cher, you can pull off anything. Everyone...

Lana Del Rey looked sharp at the 2024 Met Gala.
Fresh off headlining two weekends of Coachella, the “Video Games” singer stepped onto the moss-inspired carpet in a veiled cream Alexander McQueen sheath gown by Seán McGirr, who took inspiration from Swiss sculptor Alberto Giacometti.
A haute couture version of a fit-and-flare silhouette from the label’s spring/summer line, Del Rey wore a silk, tulle and georgette corseted dress with hand-embroidered thorny vines that appeared to climb up from her skirt and behind her head. The singer finished the look with a crystal-embellished red rose corsage. The look was a nod to the British fashion house’s “crown of thorns” headpiece from the fall/winter 1996 collection of then-creative director Shaun Leane.
“I’m with Sean [McGirr at] McQueen — Oh god, I hope I don’t poke him,” Del Rey joked on the red carpet, where she stood beside collaborator Kim Kardashian. (The...

Out Friday (May 3), the project is the latest from the Swedish songstress, who fans will recognize from her duet “Hope” with The Chainsmokers.
On it, her wistful voice and evocative lyrics are at their most heart-wrenching as she processes the loss of one of the closest people in her life to cancer.
For instance, focus track “Who Would I Be” is a soaring anthem that finds her dreaming of a chance to leave her nightmares behind in favor of a happier story. Poignant and relatable, it’s quality music with the most heart.
“I am really proud of this EP. It’s been the worst year of my life. So I can’t believe I put it all together somehow. I don’t understand how I did it sometimes,...

Celebrities have unusual ways of harkening back to the past. Harry Houdini had nothing to do with Dua Lipa until Lipa released her song “Houdini” from her album Radical Optimism. Still, referencing a stage magician from a century ago is an odd move for a pop singer. Lipa explained why she referenced an icon from another era in her song and what she is trying to accomplish with Radical Optimism.
Dua Lipa used Harry Houdini’s name as a metaphor
During a 2023 interview with Sleek, Lipa opened up about “Houdini.” “Houdini is an escape artist, and the whole idea behind this song is essentially about knowing where you stand, understanding what you deserve, and recognizing when to stay or execute a disappearing act, like Houdini,” she said. “It’s a bit tongue-in-cheek in terms of the metaphor, but fundamentally, it’s about knowing your worth.”

The idea of artists needing a “career reboot” often has as much to do with the petulant impatience of content-saturated fans than the actual situation of the artist in question. But in the case of Sia, the urgency of a course correction is hard to deny. Sia broke out from the ranks of top-level songwriters-for-hire in 2014 with the self-emptying party-kamikaze ginormity of “Chandelier.” Her 2017 album This is Acting was a concept record of sorts that repurposed songs she’d originally written with singers like Adele and Rihanna in mind, of...

Hailey Bieber seemed to squash rumors about the state of her marriage to Justin Bieber.
Justin, 30, shared a carousel of photos on Instagram on Saturday. It featured selfies of the singer crying. With no caption on the photos, fans were concerned about Justin and his marriage to Hailey.

Lana Del Rey wrapped up her set at the 2024 Coachella Music Festival with one very large fine.
The 38-year-old hitmaker took the stage as the headlining act on Friday night (April 19) during the annual festival. Her performance was a fan-favorite of the weekend and featured special guest Camila Cabello. However, it cost the festival an extra $28,000, according to a new report.

TMZ reported that Lana‘s set ran over by 13 minutes, costing the festival a fine from the City of Indio, which is where Coachella is hosted in California.
Lana is reportedly the only artist to have run over the festival’s hard end time during the show’s second weekend. So while the fine seems hefty, it is significantly lower than previous years. For instance, in 2023, Coachella was fined $117,000 for performances that ran past curfew.
This marked Lana‘s second weekend headlining the festival.

“My experience as a woman has been that it’s seen in such a weird way,” said Eilish. “I think it’s such a frowned-upon thing to talk about, and I think that should change. You asked me what I do to decompress? That shit can really, really save you sometimes, just saying. Can’t recommend it more,...

Exclusive: Thirteen years ago, a young Sidharth Sriram promised himself that the first time he would attend Coachella would be the first time he performed.
Last weekend, that dream came true. Sriram, who has sung more than 250 songs on Indian productions, is now 33 and has in the past few days become the first South Indian artist to perform at the world-renowned festival, which takes place across two weekends in the Colorado Desert. He played his second set yesterday and is featuring on a bill with Lana Del Rey, Doja Cat and Tyler the Creator.

Lana Del Rey expressed her deep gratitude for pretty much everyone who helped bring her headlining Coachella set to life — her band, her dancers, her management team, her production and stage crew, her special guests Billie Eilish, Jack Antonoff, Jon Batiste, and even her clairvoyant. Well, everyone, except her now ex-tour manager, who apparently quit just over a month before the performance.

Go on, take everything – and everyone down a peg. Courtney Love is going after some of the most popular female artists on the scene and of all time, taking digs at everybody from Taylor Swift to Madonna. Well, let’s hear it, Miss World!
Courtney Love’s former band Hole made its mark by being one of the key female-led grunge acts of the ‘90s. But for her, today’s music is all just a copy of a copy. “It’s great that there are so many successful women in the music industry, but lots of them are becoming a cliché…Now, every successful woman is cloned, so there is just too much music. They’re all the same. If you play something on Spotify, you get bombarded with a lot of stuff that’s exactly the same.”
So, which modern acts make Courtney Love’s celebrity skin crawl? Taylor Swift for one.

The Western revival is underway. After a decade of bro-country sounds and style, where 808s and baseball caps outnumbered steel guitars and Stetsons, country is looking west for a refresh. Record labels are signing artists like Ian Munsick, Catie Offerman, and Tyler Halverson, who grew up around horses and cattle. Festivals are being held on actual ranches. And stars are stepping out, hats to boots, in fresh-off-the-runway Western wear. Even songwriters who play cowboys on TV, like Yellowstone’s Luke Grimes, are dropping country albums.

Rachel Zegler and Kit Connor will make their Broadway debuts in a new production of Shakespeare’s Romeo + Juliet this fall.
The production will feature music by Grammy Award winner Jack Antonoff, who is also making his Broadway debut, movement by Sonya Tayeh (Moulin Rouge! The Musical) and direction by Sam Gold. Exact dates and a theater have yet to be announced, but tickets are set to go on sale in May.
While few details have been released about this version of the Shakespeare classic, the production is using the tagline “The Youth Are Fucked” and promises an angrier take on the tale.
“With the presidential election coming up in November, I felt like making a show this fall that celebrates youth and hope, and unleashes the anger young people feel about the world they are inheriting,” said Gold, who is helming this season’s An Enemy of the People.

Singers Justin Bieber and Jaden Smith shared a sweet moment over the weekend at Coachella. Bieber and Smith have maintained a friendship since the two collaborated on Bieber’s song “Never Say Never” as teenagers.
Smith, 25, was captured on video hugging Bieber, 30, from behind in a VIP area at the music festival. Bieber then kissed Smith on the cheek before the two engaged in conversation. Since they collaborated in 2010, when Bieber was 16 and Smith was 11, they have maintained a close friendship. “Never Say Never” was featured as the theme song for Smith’s movie The Karate Kid, starring martial artist Jackie Chan.
Bieber’s wife, Hailey Bieber, was spotted at Coachella with him. The couple was seen in the crowd during Lana Del Rey‘s set on opening night. Recently, rumors that the Biebers are going through a divorce have circulated five years after they tied the knot in 2018. The couple denied these claims.

With a new BBC radio series now launched, Courtney Love is once again proving the power of the adage “go large or go home.”
In a wide ranging interview with the UK’s Standard today, the former Hole front woman puts forth her take on some of the biggest names in the music industry. Let’s just say, Love bites in deep in the newspaper, to quote from her 1998 tune “Celebrity Skin,” to get her pound of flesh from Taylor Swift, Beyoncé, Madonna and recent Coachella headliner Lana Del Rey.
“Taylor is not important,” the People vs. Larry Flint star says of the superstar.
“She might be a safe space for girls, and she’s probably the Madonna of now, but she’s not interesting as an artist,” Love added.
The contrarian opinion on Swift is a big shift from where Love was on the Folklore singer just over two years ago.

Courtney Love took shots at several fellow female musicians over the weekend, dissing the likes of Taylor Swift, Beyoncé, Lana Del Rey and Madonna.
“Taylor is not important,” the singer said in an interview with The Standard. “She might be a safe space for girls, and she’s probably the Madonna of now, but she’s not interesting as an artist.”
Despite the invocation of Madonna to address Swift’s success, Love didn’t spare Madonna, either: “I don’t like her and she doesn’t like me,” Love said.
Elsewhere in the interview, Love also noted she dislikes Beyoncé’s new country hit, Cowboy Carter, despite appreciating the album’s symbolism being “about Black women going into spaces where previously only white women have been allowed.”
“As a concept, I love it,” Love said. “I just don’t like her music.”
Love went on to say she dislikes Lana Del Rey.

On stage, Grimes tried to explain to fans that the problems stemmed from the programming of her tracks. But with thousands of faces watching, it was clear that the singer was growing more frustrated by the minute, leading to the singer screaming into the microphone.
On the morning after her performance, Grimes issued an apology to X, which was owned by ex-partner Elon Musk.
“I want to apologize for the technical issues with the show tonight,” the post read. “I wanted to come back rly strong and usually I always handle every aspect of the show myself.”

Courtney Love could have a cruel summer running into Swifties after saying their favorite artist Taylor Swift is neither important nor interesting.
In a new interview with The Standard promoting Love’s BBC Radio series celebrating women in music, the Hole singer didn’t have kind words to say about Swift. “Taylor is not important,” she said. “She might be a safe space for girls, and she’s probably the Madonna of now, but she’s not interesting as an artist.”

Making room to piss off another fanbase, Love also said Beyoncé isn’t her cup of tea — though she appreciates the “concept” of Queen Bey’s latest album, Cowboy Carter. “I like the idea of Beyoncé doing a country record because it’s about Black women going into spaces where previously only white women have been allowed,” she explained. “I just don’t like her music.

J Balvin made his return to Coachella on Sunday night, and he brought along Will Smith for a performance of “Men in Black” towards the end of his sub-headlining set.
Complete with backup dancers donned as ETs, a massive alien head popping up in the center, and a reprise of the 1997 film’s costumes, J Balvin pulled out all the stops for his Men in Black production. Will Smith emerged to perform the blockbuster’s titular theme song — halfway through, the track’s beat switched to a reggaeton groove, and Smith and J Balvin recreated the dance from the song’s music video.
The performance concluded with J Balvin being “captured” by suited backup dancers and Smith flashing the audience with a memory-eraser ray. Watch footage of Smith’s appearance below.

Coachella 2024 was the year of the A-list guests. Across all three days, top stars made appearances either onstage or in the crowd to support their musician besties. Olivia Rodrigo joined No Doubt, Will Smith pulled up for J Balvin, Justin Bieber sang with Tems, Billie Eilish threw a last-minute party at the DoLab stage, and Shakira even announced a world tour during Bizarrap’s set.
The talk among some festivalgoers ahead of Coachella suggested that this year’s lineup might underwhelm, but the number of stars joining their friends onstage surely helped with that.

Nelly Furtado took to Instagram on Saturday to show off her battle scars following a particularly dramatic performance onstage at Coachella.
Fans at the music festival on Saturday saw Furtado trip and fall after joining Dom Dolla to perform their single, “Eat Your Man.” Furtado shared footage of the spill on her own Instagram story later that day.
Also on social media, Furtado shared a photo of her bloodied finger after the performance. “Literally left it all on the stage,” she wrote, “including my blood.”
