Honey Dijon Launches Etsy Collection as an Homage to Queer Culture
DJ, fashion icon, and trans activist Honey Dijon has launched an Etsy collection to showcase LGBTQIA representation throughout the eras. Drawing inspiration from museum gift shops, one of Dijon’s favorite parts of a museum, the collection features products from other women of color like earrings, wallets, socks, and vases. Queer culture has become much more inclusive over the years. Dijon points out that the ’50s, ’60s, and ’70s were the most transformative years for the Queer community. “What really draws me to that is when fashion and art reflect that social change, in the end, you have marginalized people creating their own music and culture,” Dijon told Billboard. “I mean, two generations ago, we lost so many of the most highly creat...
deadmau5 Reveals “Oberhasli” VR Game
Over a year after teasing a mysterious VR project on Instagram, deadmau5 has unveiled Oberhasli at gamescom’s Opening Night. Curated by deadmau5 himself, Oberhasli is a virtual reality game that will contain a consistently evolving world of music, environments, and other interactive content for players. It will have in-game communication features, such as playing other games, listening to live music performances, socializing, and engaging with artists. “Creating a world like Oberhasli has been a vision of mine for years now, but I quickly discovered how daunting it can be to create a multiplayer experience as a solo developer,” deadmau5 said in a press release. “The amazing thing about Core is that anyone can jump in and create content regardless of experience o...
Watch NFL Superstar J.J. Watt Try to Explain Eric Prydz’s Music
“Opus” is a prized song in the career of one of the most prolific artists in electronic music history. But to some, like future NFL Hall of Famer J.J. Watt, it’s just another “where’s the drop?” moment. After hearing Eric Prydz‘s progressive house hit in the Arizona Cardinals’ locker room prior to training camp practice yesterday, the superstar defensive end found himself asking that very question. His teammate, Dennis Gardeck, was in charge of the music and decided to pump some EDM through the speakers to “get the juice back” after returning from a stint on the team’s Physically Unable To Perform list. Watt, of course, isn’t familiar with the classic prolonged builds of Prydz’s music, which lend to a u...

Britney Spears Basks in the ‘Fountain of Youth’ for Latest Topless Photo
The 39-year-old pop superstar, who’s been supporting the #FreeBritney movement in the midst of her ongoing battle to end the conservatorship that has controlled her life and career for the last 13 years, explained earlier this week why she’s been freeing her body more and posting racy pictures on social media. “I bet you’re wondering why I’d expose my body NOW,” she captioned a series of similar topless photos. “Well it’s because I was born into this world naked and I honestly feel like the weight of the would has been on my shoulders and it’s made me view myself that way !!!! I wanted to see myself in a lighter way … naked … like the way I was born and to me looking back at my pictures when I shoot it’s insane the psychology in seeing myself in my purest...

Disney’s ‘Hercules’ is Having a Moment Thanks to Lizzo’s New Video
It’s a comparison Lizzo essentially signed off on, as the singer posted a fan-created version of “Rumors” on Twitter, set to that exact scene in the animated film. “Y’all really get me,” Lizzo wrote in a tweet, alongside a blushing emoji. Originally released in 1997, Hercules is getting a lot of renewed attention this week. In addition to (possibly) inspiring Lizzo’s new music video, the film got a shout-out from Aretha star, Jennifer Hudson, who revealed that she played Calliope, the head muse, on a Disney cruise ship back in the day. Asked if she would be interested in starring in a Hercules remake, Hudson replied with a simple, “I’m ready, just roll the camera” (A live-action remake of Hercules is reportedly in the wo...
