Andrew Bird has announced his new album, Outside Problems, out next Friday, July 21st via Loma Vista Recordings. As a preview, he’s shared the single “Mo Teef,” which you can stream below.
A collection of nine instrumentals, Outside Problems serves as a companion piece to Bird’s 2022 album, Inside Problems, as he explained in a statement. “There are two notable things about this album,” he said. “One, none of these songs were recorded with the intent of making an album, I just happened to capture moments of melodic exploration over a period of time. You can hear themes from Inside Problems throughout the album, including on the song ‘Epilogue,’ just without concern for bridges and choruses and the band. I’m able to capture the sound of music in everyday life, a surprisingly hard thing to do. I was playing for the joy of it and to get these ideas out of my head.

Kesha was on the verge of a panic attack in the spring of 2020 when her aging cat Mr. Peeps brought over her headphones. She’d been spiraling a lot back then, like so many people, her anxiety mounting as the pandemic shut down the music industry — but she took her cat’s gesture as a sign that it was time to meditate. And in the midst of a guided meditation she’d done many times before, something shook loose.

When Lizzo hit the stage at the 2023 Grammys on Feb. 5, the millions of fans watching said, "It's About Damn Time!" in unison. After belting out a few lines from her hit single "About Damn Time," Lizzo transitioned into her first award show performance of her song "Special" off her album of the same name. A full-blown gospel choir joined the 34-year-old singer to help her deliver the song's most inspiring lyrics: "In case nobody told you today / You're special / In case nobody made you believe / You're special / Well, I will always love you the same / You're special."
Lizzo is nominated for five Grammys at this year's ceremony: record of the year, best pop solo performance, and song of the year for "About Damn Time," and album of the year and best pop vocal album for "Special."

When they met nearly three decades ago, The Last of Us star Pedro Pascal and American Horror Story vet Sarah Paulson couldn’t have known they’d one day appear together on Saturday Night Live. And yet there they were, joining forces for the “Fancam Assembly” sketch during Pascal’s SNL hosting debut on Saturday, February 4. In the sketch, Pascal plays Mr. Ben, a beloved teacher at St. Lawrence High School, who’s laying down a new rule for his students: No TikTok fan cams about faculty. “But we make them because you’re our beloved, and you have us in a chokehold!” Sarah Sherman’s student character responds. “Ok, don’t say that.” Mr. Ben replies. “I just don’t understand! Why do you make sparkly, fast, romantic montages of me every single day?” Eventually, the students explain. “Because three years [of] Covid made us online forever,” Sherman’s character says.

On 1,000-lb Sisters Season 4, Tammy Slaton is doing everything she can to get approved for her gastric bypass surgery. But she’s struggling to get her weight low enough to be approved for the weight loss surgery. Does she manage to do it?
Tammy Slaton in ‘1000-Lb. Sisters’ | TLC via YouTube Tammy struggled to lose enough weight.
After a major health scare, Tammy spent some time in rehab for weight loss. She was just a few pounds shy of the goal her doctor set in place. Now in season 4, she’s back in the rehab facility and is on track to her goal weight for surgery. Her breathing is being assisted by the tube in her neck, called a tracheotomy, which has helped her exercise. Now, Tammy only has a few more pounds to lose before she’s a candidate for weight loss surgery.

The second season finale of The White Lotus might be all many Jennifer Coolidge fans could talk about for a bit, but she’s been working through a list of other projects lately.
For one, she appeared in Shotgun Wedding with Jennifer Lopez. And she discussed what it was like working with the icon, including if there was ever a moment when someone needed clarification about which Jennifer was which.
Coolidge mostly couldn’t get over Lopez’s dedication to making things happen, but that reminded her of how hopeless things had gotten from her perspective before HBO picked up The White Lotus. And she revealed why she thinks it’s “weird” her career is on the upswing now.

Artists like Beyoncé, Harry Styles, Adele, Lizzo, and more received nominations for Record of the Year. Here are our predictions for the 2023 Grammy Awards — and the winner in this category.
Who is nominated for Record of the Year at the 2023 Grammy Awards Harry Styles accepts the Best Pop Solo Performance award for ‘Watermelon Sugar’ during the 63rd Annual Grammy Awards | Kevin Winter/Getty Images for The Recording Academy
As one of the biggest categories at the 2023 Grammy Awards, several well-known artists earned nods in the Record of the Year category. This category shares similar nominees to Song of the Year.
However, as noted on the Grammy’s website, Record of the Year is awarded to “the Artist and to the Producer(s), Recording Engineer(s) and/or Mixer(s) and mastering engineer(s), if other than the artist.”
That means this category specifically recognizes the recording and technical aspects behind an original.

On February 2, Alphabet revealed its earnings for the fourth quarter of 2022. The parent company of Google missed its projections, as did its subsidiary video platform. YouTube ad revenue fell about 300 million short of expectations, though its short-form platform delivered massive viewership during the quarter.
YouTube was expected to hit 8.25 billion in quarterly ad revenue, but it reported 7.96 billion in that category instead. In total, Alphabet pulled in 76.05 billion in Q4 revenue, which was about 500 million short of projections. The Google holding company only grew 1 year-over-year since Q4 2021. That’s its lowest Yoy increase since Q2 2020, when the onset of the Covid-19 pandemic put a damper on businesses around the globe.
Google’s recent layoffs won’t come cheap
Due to the uncertain economic climate, Alphabet let 12,000 workers go in January. In the company’s latest earnings call, it reported that its cuts would incur a charge between 1.9 billion and 2.3 billion.

Julia Fox made her feature film debut in 2019 in Uncut Gems, playing a showroom saleswoman and mistress of the show’s protagonist (Adam Sandler). Before that, she worked as a model, painter, photographer, and even clothing designer.
Fox has been busy since Uncut Gems premiered, both with writing and directing the short film Fantasy Girls and starring in the drama Puppet. Recently, Fox started making the headlines for something other than acting and modeling — and it isn’t her short-lived romance with Kanye West.
The 33-year-old just posted an apartment tour video on her TikTok page, and people can’t believe how humble and small it is.

San Francisco, Feb 3 (Ians) US Senator Michael Bennett has urged Apple CEO Tim Cook and Google CEO Sundar Pichai to immediately remove TikTok from their app stores in a letter Thursday, calling it an unacceptable risk to American national security.
In the letter, the Senator from Colorado highlighted the danger of TikTok’s extensive reach in the US.
“Like most social media platforms, TikTok collects vast and sophisticated data from its users, including faceprints and voiceprints. Unlike most social media platforms, TikTok poses a unique concern because Chinese law obligates ByteDance, its Beijing-based parent company, to support, assist, and cooperate with state intelligence work,” wrote Bennet.
TikTok is now the third-most popular social media app in the US, with over 100 million American users spending more than 80 minutes per day on the app.
Bennet explains how the combination of TikTok’s reach, aggressive data collection, and Chinese law obligations endangers US security.

On Wednesday, February 1, Bachelor Nation got a big dose of some fresh gossip when Rachel Recchia posted a video with her ex, and now Susie Evans‘ ex as well, on TikTok. The clip featured none other than Clayton Echard, who some of you may remember did not leave his season on The Bachelor on the best of terms with Recchia. Judging from the posted TikTok clip, they’ve come a long way since Clayton told Recchia and fellow finalists Gabby Windey and Susie, that he was falling in love with them. Not only that, he had sex with both Windey and Recchia in the Fantasy Suites. In the video, previous Bachelorette Michelle Young mouths along to a sound that asks, “Are you going to tell me what’s going on?” “I would,” Rachel lip-syncs to the audio, “but I think explaining it might give us both an aneurysm.” @pilot.rachel...

A member of the Senate Intelligence Committee is pushing Apple and Google to remove TikTok from their app stores because of national security concerns as the Chinese-owned company faces escalating prospects of a national ban amid bipartisan scrutiny of its data-sharing practices.
In a letter addressed to the chief executives of Apple and Alphabet, Sen. Michael Bennet, D-Colo. says TikTok’s popularity “raises the obvious risk that the Chinese Communist Party could weaponize TikTok against the United States” by forcing parent company ByteDance to “surrender Americans’ sensitive data or manipulate the content Americans receive to advance China’s interests.”
The government has increasingly been taking action against TikTok’s ties to China. In December, President Joe Biden signed a bill prohibiting the use of TikTok by nearly four million government employees on devices owned by its agencies. At least 27 state governments have passed similar measures.

ChatGPT is off to one of the hottest starts in tech history. The next-generation chatbot now has approximately 100 million users, including a few high-profile proponents. Jonah Peretti, the Co-Founder and CEO of BuzzFeed, revealed that his company will employ AI to generate new types of content.
The company behind ChatGPT, OpenAI, built the bot with a combination of large language models and reinforcement learning. Since opening up to the public in December, ChatGPT has been hailed for the accurate and detailed responses it provides.
According to investment bank Ubs, ChatGPT was on track to surpass 100 million users in January. For comparison, TikTok took nine months to reach 100 million users, and Instagram needed more than two years to reach that milestone. “This is the fastest consumer application I have seen to hit 100 million monthly active users in my career covering this space,” Ubs equities analyst Lloyd Walmsley told CBS. “The ramp has been extraordinary.

“When I saw it, I just had a big smile on my face,” Wolfhard told GQ in a new interview published Wednesday. “I was just really proud of him.”
Wolfhard plays Mike Wheeler in the Netflix series, which is expected to start production on its fifth and final season in May.

Welcome to Creators on the Rise, where—in partnership with global creator company Jellysmack—we find and profile breakout creators who are in the midst of extraordinary growth.
If you were a teenage mallgoer in the early 2000s, you remember Hollister. The cranked-up music. The overwhelming perfume. The uber dark lighting we’re pretty sure was purposefully designed to keep you from seeing the price tags. And, of course, the often delightful staff ready to judge your size, your taste, your budget, and everything else about you.
If you’re drowning in nostalgia right now–good! And also, sorry!
But trust us when we say if you’re experiencing nostalgia now, it’s nothing compared to what’s waiting for you in Erin Miller‘s videos.
While Miller, like many other Creators on the Rise featurees, took off on YouTube during the pandemic, she’s got a long history as a content creator.
If you were a teenage mallgoer in the early 2000s, you remember Hollister. The cranked-up music. The overwhelming perfume. The uber dark lighting we’re pretty sure was purposefully designed to keep you from seeing the price tags. And, of course, the often delightful staff ready to judge your size, your taste, your budget, and everything else about you.
If you’re drowning in nostalgia right now–good! And also, sorry!

Surrounded by the bustling campus of High Point University in North Carolina, Annie Bonelli looks like a typical college freshman. Her long blonde hair is up, with pieces hanging down to frame her face. She waves to a few friends who pass her in the on-campus bakery. But in less than a year, Bonelli has gone from a normal teen girl to a minor celebrity. In fact, less than two minutes into an interview with Rolling Stone, the talk is interrupted by three excited girls who approach her to see...

Finn Wolfhard couldn’t be happier for his longtime “Stranger Things” co-star Noah Schnapp, who publicly came out as gay in a TikTok video last month. Speaking to GQ magazine to promote his latest movie, the Jesse Eisenberg-directed “When You Finish Saving The World,” Wolfhard shared the following words of encouragement about Schnapp’s coming out: “When I saw it, I just had a big smile on my face. I was just really proud of him.”
Schnapp and Wolfhard have been with Netflix’s “Stranger Things” since its pilot episode. This spring, the cast will reunite in Atlanta to begin shooting the fifth and final season of the blockbuster sci-fi series. The duo’s young co-stars include Milly Bobby Brown, Sadie Sink, Gaten Matarazzo and Caleb McLaughlin. Wolfhard said “everyone’s on their own quests in real life” as they figure out how to maintain their careers following the end of “Stranger Things.

While Amy Poehler might be one of the most prolific comedians on TV, she hasn’t embraced all comedic mediums. The former Saturday Night Live star lives perpetually in YouTube clips of her best work on the variety show, and starred in a number of movies including Sisters, Baby Mama, Mean Girls, and as a voice actor in Inside Out.
For all her success as the perpetually sunny Leslie Knope on Parks and Recreation, and now running her own production company, Poehler hasn’t cracked the code in adding social media quips to her repertoire. And while some might assume she’s simply not interested, that’s not quite the truth. In fact, Poehler is a big fan of some of the platforms — she’s just not sure she’s going to move beyond lurking and admiring what other content creators are already doing.

Despite comparisons to Blair Witch and Eraserhead, and a scary premise, this atmospheric debut feature runs out of steam
This experimental lo-fi horror debut became a mini viral sensation last year after accidentally being leaked online. Terrorised TikTok users called it “the scariest film ever made”; critics reached for comparisons with The Blair Witch Project and David Lynch’s Eraserhead. I have to admit to being underwowed, finding Skinamarink a little undeserving of its newly acquired cult status.
That said, there is without a doubt something uncanny, almost seance-like, in the way Canadian film-maker Kyle Edward Ball evokes childhood fear of the dark. That primal terror of being little and waking up in the middle of the night, your imagination playing tricks on you, turning the hallway to mum and dad’s room into a scary no man’s land where monsters lurk.
