Tove Lo Unveils New Song “How Long”: Stream
Tove Lo has returned with a new song called “How Long,” which appears on the upcoming Euphoria soundtrack. Listen to the song below. Synthesizers snake around “How Long,” which builds from a cool, detached verse to a wary, impassioned chorus. “Try to play it cool/ I like you/ Have me in your hand/ Just like that,” Tove Lo sings at first, over a steady beat. Soon enough, however, she tips her hand. “How long have you loved another while I’m dreaming of us together?” goes her fervent interrogation, as keys bubble. Tove Lo’s edgy electro-pop fits Euphoria’s dingy aesthetic on its own, but “How Long” get a proper needle drop on the show’s next episode, premiering Sunday (January 30th). The artist gushed about contributing to the drama’s soundtrack in a statement. “‘How Long’ is ...

“Pig”: Janet Jackson Says Michael Jackson Bullied Her About Her Weight
Janet Jackson has revealed that her brother Michael used to bully her about her weight beginning when she was 11 and he was an adult.

Lady Gaga Talks Acting, Failure and Working With Al Pacino on ‘House Of Gucci’
Just maybe, Lady Gaga has staged the greatest transformation of them all. The superstar singer’s evolution is staggering, Bowie-esque even, from Stefani Germanotta, to the Gaga so widely known and loved, a chart-topping pop and (sometimes) jazz swinger with a dozen Grammy Awards and an Oscar in her trophy room. As an actor, Gaga turned heads with her performance as Ally in 2018’s A Star Is Born, for which she scooped the Academy Award for best original song (with “Shallow”). And she metamorphoses on screen as Patrizia Reggiani in Ridley Scott’s latest film House Of Gucci, a performance that has critics raving. Some are predicting a second gold statuette. On Monday night (Jan. 24), Gaga stopped by Jimmy Kimmel Live for a chat, an insider’s look at Gucci, and to share some life lessons learn...

Adele FaceTimes TikTok Fan Who Went Viral for Missing Every Concert She’s Had Tickets to Attend
After racking up more than eight million views on TikTok on a clip summarizing the bad luck she’s had just trying to see Adele in concert, fan Eleni Sabracos finally got to connect with the star.

For our favorite new songs from emerging artists, check out our Spotify New Sounds playlist. This week, Lana Del Rey’s cut from the Euphoria soundtrack captures all the glitter and drama of the hit television show. HBO’s Euphoria is a lot of things — trendy, absurd, moving, disturbing, a cinematography dream — but, above all, it is the moment. In an era often dominated by binge-watching, it’s a rarity to see people dutifully tune into new episodes of a show on a weekly basis for fear of missing out on the social conversation. Season 2 of the addiction drama seems just as strong (if not stronger) on that front. Sunday evening trendin...
