On Tuesday night (Jan. 5), Lauren Jauregui responded to a tweet from a user named YogiOabs, who wrote a lengthy, derogatory tweet about women. “Call a wh–e for what she is. A WH–E. Men will sleep with these dirty prostitutes but not marry them. Don’t walk in their footsteps if you want a kind husband one day! The chase woman is more lovable. If you’re offended by this, YOU’RE A WH–E,” the self-proclaimed writer and relationship coach tweeted. The “Expectations” singer then quoted his tweet, immediately calling him out for his sexist comments. “Omg I’m a whore….?! Lmao y’all be mad pathetic and can’t even make a woman c-m,” she wrote. “Let us orgasm and enjoy sex in peace yogi. PS SW [sex work] is valid...

While Metallica preps their 11th studio album, Miley Cyrus is collaborating with A-listers for a cover album in homage to the metal behemoths. “I did a Metallica cover of ‘Nothing Else Matters’ featuring Elton John on piano. I’ve got Yo-Yo Ma, Chad Smith; so many all-stars. I’m so excited about this collaboration. I’m really stoked. I love when ingredients don’t quite fit,” she told UK radio program Capital Breakfast with Roman Kemp. It was produced by Andrew Watt, who we spoke with recently. Cyrus previously hinted about a Metallica covers record, following her live version of the band’s ‘Nothing Else Matters’ during her performance at Glastonbury in 2019. She also cited Metallica as an inspiration behind her latest album, Plastic Hearts. That album also featured cool collabs: B...
The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) is investigating the crashing by unknown persons, of radio frequencies used by U.S. air traffic controllers, to broadcast a threat to fly an airplane into U.S. Capitol in revenge for the assassination of prominent Iranian General Qasem Soleimani. U.S. broadcaster CBS news reported this on Wednesday. Congress is due to convene for a meeting later in the day to certify Joe Biden’s victory in the presidential election. “We are flying a plane into the Capitol Wednesday. “Soleimani will be avenged,” what sounded like an electronically generated male voice said on the audio recording, published by CBS. According to the broadcaster, citing sources, while the threat is not treated as credible by the U.S. government, it is being investigated as a breach of ...
A Russian SUV, in America, imported by a bankrupt Italian truck manufacturer, and sharing a model name with an upcoming Volkswagen crossover? This is going to take a little explaining, but first, you’re looking at the 2022 Bremach Taos, an SUV that the company wants to sell in America for just under $27,000. See all 20 photos Under the fresh-start rebranding, the Taos is really a UAZ Patriot—something novel to us, perhaps, but old hat to the Russians. The Patriot has been on sale since 2005. It’s a simple body-on-frame SUV, with chunky styling and angular headlights that vaguely recall the contemporary Suzuki Vitara. Like the Jeep Wrangler, the Taos features solid axles front and rear—a boon for off-roading, but not the most sophisticated or comfortable arrangement for on-road ...
The Grand Highlander will likely share its TNGA-K underpinnings with the run-of-the-mill Highlander, however, the upcoming model may sport an elongated wheelbase and/or a redesigned rear end that aims to add more cargo and third-row seating space (not unlike the Lexus RX L). Such a change should allow Toyota to move the Highlander’s third-row bench further back, which in turn ought to improve legroom. Assuming the Grand Highlander comes to fruition, we anticipate the new model will wear a sticker price a few thousand dollars greater than that of the regular Highlander, which currently starts at $35,985. We reached out to Toyota about its Grand Highlander trademark, however, a company spokesperson informed us they were unable to “provide details on future products.” You De...
Georgia’s Senate races advanced to runoff elections on Tuesday (Jan. 5), after no candidate garnered more than 50% of the general election vote.

“I built Hipgnosis to be a company Neil would want to be a part of,” Mercuriadis said in a statement. “We have a common integrity, ethos and passion born out of a belief in music and these important songs… This is a deal that changes Hipgnosis forever and it’s a dream to welcome Neil, Frank, Bonnie and the team to the Hipgnosis family.” Young had been managed for decades by Elliot Roberts, who passed away last year. His affairs are now handled by Frank Gironda, an associate of Roberts who was mentioned in the announcement, as was Bonnie Levitan, another member of Young’s management team. Young, 75, has been releasing projects from his archives for the past few years, and in 2020 he put out two such sets, plus a 10-CD box set, Archives Volume II: 1972-1976. The terms of this deal were...
The set, the followup to 2017’s Truth Is a Beautiful Thing, was initially slated for release Feb. 12. Co-produced by English electronic musician George FitzGerald, California Soil features the previously-released single “Baby It’s You,” the title track and “Lose Your Head,” which premiered earlier this week on Annie Mac’s BBC Radio 1 show.

Their signature 2013 single “Strong” won a coveted Ivor Novello Award for best song musically and lyrically. Watch the official video for “Lose...
