'Midnight Sky': Miley Cyrus Was Born to Run
"I don't need to be loved by you." She was coming...until she wasn't. Miley Cyrus is just rolling with the punches like the rest of us: that includes her Malibu home burning down in the California fires, a highly publicized divorce with Liam Hemsworth, an equally highly publicized, fleeting…
Kylie Minogue Gives 'Say Something' an Acoustic Makeover
“Say Something,” Kylie Minogue‘s grand return mid-pandemic, appropriately (and accidentally!) encapsulates the socially distanced uncertainty and sadness of the present moment. It makes perfect sense, then, that a more isolated rendition was in order. Our Mighty Aphrodite…
Dua Lipa, Madonna & Missy Elliott: The 'Levitating' Remix
Dua Lipa‘s dreams are coming true, and then some. The reigning dance-pop diva of moment has made it clear from the (don’t) start (now) of her immaculate era: she’s got Madonna-level career aspirations, and her album of the year contender, Future Nostalgia, is undoubtedly…
Sunmi Hits the Disco With Her Former Boss J.Y. Park
Sunmi is no stranger to a left-lane, artsy-fartsy kind of career choice – and teaming up with her former boss, J.Y. Park of JYP Entertainment, is certainly no exception. The 28-year-old “Noir” quirk-pop princess and the 48-year-old JYP record executive are starry-eyed,…
'WAP': Cardi B & Megan Thee Stallion Have Some Wet Ass Production Value
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hsm4poTWjMs Cardi B, the Coronavirus Whisperer, and Megan Thee Stallion, Thee TikTok Dominator, have united in song to bless us with “WAP,” released on Friday (August 7). If it wasn’t already made abundantly clear by now: they’re certified…
Brace for 'Impact': Robyn, SG Lewis & Channel Tres Hit the Club

'Past Life': Selena Gomez & Trevor Daniel Are Ready for Their (Extreme) Close-Up
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1AhOK4UwAMs "I don't wanna sit in all my sadness / I know it's a habit of mine..." Selena Gomez is providing her loyal Selenators with a glimpse into a different side of herself - namely, her internal organs. If you've not been keeping up with the latest musical…
Red Velvet's Irene & Seulgi Are Little Monsters (No, Not That Kind - But Maybe?)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ujb-gvqsoi0&feature=emb_title The ladies of Red Velvet are no strangers to a creepy concept. The morbid, near-death experience glee of "Russian Roulette," anyone? The Strangers/Us-esque eeriness of "Peek-A-Boo"? Simply put: the girls do dork-sided well. Enter Irene…
'Rain on Me': Lady Gaga & Ariana Grande Twirl Through the Tears
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AoAm4om0wTs In the beginning, God created the heavens and the Earth. And, if you translate the text of the Bible from the original Hebrew, you'll know that God then immediately created the disco stick, the meat dress, the Born This Way motorcycle, Jeff Koons and his…
Lindsay Lohan, 'Back to Me': A Spirit Returns in the Darkest of Times
Lindsay Dee Lohan is known for many things...her timing not generally being one of them. Granted, as we've seen for weeks, no one knows exactly how to launch a campaign mid-quarantine, at a time when bumping up a release makes exactly as much sense as pushing it back. But then, that thinking is…
'Stupid Love': Lady Gaga, The Pop Star, Is Back & Campier Than Ever
Take off that pink hat. Give Tony Bennett a goodbye kiss on the cheek (to cheek). Tell Jackson Maine you can’t go on tour with him this summer. Our Lady Gaga - Stefani Germanotta, an Italian Girl from New York City, as Legends OnlyFans better know her as - is back. We already know that one of…
'Never Let You Go': Hilary Duff & Matthew Koma Cover Third Eye Blind
This week has already been unpredictable in the best of ways (come through, Parasite), and also full of very oddly specific, early-to-mid '00s nostalgia that ought to have fellow millennials yearning to update their AIM away messages: Kelly Clarkson singing Avril Lavigne ballads. Mandy Moore…
