Summer Boy Posted June 18 Posted June 18 she has to announce the release today for this Friday. It's been way too long since Chromatica and the Chromatica Ball teaser. It's exhausting to always wait for something that is never coming... 1 3
opbranden Posted June 18 Posted June 18 5 minutes ago, Aston Martin said: And coincidentally enough, no one will be listening then either The strange thing is that the Jazz curse will end on July 6th. Nowadays, they always put preorders up at least 40 to 50 days in advance, but usually more. (Taylor more than two months, Beyoncé 55 days, Billie 41 days but she was coming off an Oscar win, Camila 55 days, etc.) If she were to wait until the next Tuesday after the last show to make the lead single announcement, she would probably release it on the day after Katy's (July 12th), with the album likely coming out on August 23rd, less than a week before the Venice Film Festival. At that point, September would seem more likely, but she will be in Venice and around Europe/the world promoting Joker for the various premieres, so I don't know how that would work. 1
bitchfit Posted June 18 Posted June 18 It's too deathly quiet today, I don't think anything will happen

And if you were referring to us, well when we are quiet then something happens just like fortnite or the special announcement
Mirkomonster Posted June 18 Posted June 18 June 21st: lead (today announcement) August 2nd: album release + 2nd single
Sombre Posted June 18 Posted June 18 Who originally said she's releasing June 21? The "edsheeran" user?

Likely dates for the album: Aug. 9th, 16th, 30th, or Sept. 6th. If she's releasing the 9th, I think she'll announce today and drop the lead on Friday. If she's releasing the 16th, she'll announce Friday and release the lead on the 28th (though since Camilla's releasing her album that day and she's an Interscope artist, that's low key unlikely). If she's releasing the 30th, I'm guessing she'd announce July 16th and drop the lead the 19th (she's not releasing the same week as Katy since I don't think she wants that narrative brought up again even if she'd probably do better). If she's dropping on Sept. 6 I think she'd announce July 23rd and drop the lead on July 26th. If that's not happening, then we're not getting the album until next year. 1
Janet Posted June 18 Posted June 18 The way no true insiders have mentioned any inkling of a release this week. Don't waste your time with a countdown today Liddos 1

And why suffocate the album rollout with the Joker premieres? The movie has a soundtrack; she's going to talk about that, she won't have the opportunity to focus on the album's process because everything will be about the Joker. Now she has time to do at least something for the album, like an interview or two (Chromatica style), and then passively promote the album during the Joker era. 3

Likely dates are aug2nd , 9th or 16th at max From Aug 28th to Sep 7th there Is Venice Festival and then, after, all the others festival and Premiere around the world Edited June 18 by Mirkomonster 1

I agree with you, but as mirkomonster said, I find it hard to believe that they would release the album while she is attending various premieres around the world. They are not the place for "promoting" music; Hollywood wouldn't take it well since she's a singer-turned-actress. 3
TMRA Posted June 18 Posted June 18 I agree this friday is the most IDEAL date. Album for beginning of August to let it have its spotlight before Joker 1
Badgalbriel Posted June 18 Posted June 18 Lol, I deserve the lashings. Katy is one stupid girl, damn. I was so sure she was coming back strong 9
PerfectCure Posted June 18 Posted June 18 Nothing is coming today, any insider would have definitely teased it by now, and there are quite a few reliable ones on this site. Sad to see she's wasting a perfect opportunity to drop some new music 3

Sad to see she's wasting a perfect opportunity to drop some new music Well, to be perfectly honest, even Katy's fanbase didn't receive any insider info about the specific date. Some insider said a June 21st release was possible for her, and well, that's not going to happen. After the shops went down, I could have guessed too that she was announcing something. It's easy being an insider like that. And let's not forget that nobody predicted the Fortnite announcement or the hbo special release date. Our only reliable insider this era was the one from Reddit.
