Demi Lovato Teases ‘Religious Undertones’ of ‘Holy Fvck’ Album Title
Demi Lovato called into the SiriusXM studios on Monday (July 18) to tease their forthcoming album Holy Fvck. “The title track of the album is called ‘Holy Fvck’ and the song was basically, I wanted to flip the phrase ‘holy f–k’ on its head. And instead of just saying ‘holy f–k,’ I wanted to write a song that says, ‘I’m a holy f–k,’” the pop star explained. “It’s definitely a sexually charged song, but it’s really fun.” “I felt like it was a great, eye-catching title track for the rest of the album,” she continued, “and especially because there’s songs on the album that have, like, kind of religious undertones, there’s songs on the album that have this dichotomy of good and bad, and that song kind of represented both.” Explore Explore See latest videos, charts and news See latest vide...

Quinta Brunson, ABC Hit With Copyright Infringement Lawsuit Over ‘Abbott Elementary’
Quinta Brunson and ABC have been hit with a copyright infringement lawsuit over their show Abbott Elementary, which just received seven Primetime Emmy Awards nominations. According to reports, Christine Davis alleged that the premise of Abbott Elementary was taken from her own show, This School Year, without her consent. Abbott Elementary and This School Year are supposedly “striking and substantially similar,” with the former’s “look and feel of the inner-city school, the mockumentary style, unique plot synopsis, set design and unique characters” pulled from the plaintiff’s original script that was penned in 2018 and copyrighted in 2020 — a year before the ABC show debuted in December 2021. She also added that both her and Abbott Elementary’s scripts include young teacher characters whose...
