Lemonaade

Those who wanna hate on her won't see it that way. I already spoke to this in my OP

150K

Which is fine, but also it's going to obviously impact her commercially

she's not gonna live this down is she Well just remember it's a digital deluxe and everyone who was gonna buy it already owns the album

I think her fans were pretty turned off when she trashed anybody for liking Hot Pink so now anytime she does something even remotely pop it comes off disingenuous and, unfortunately for her, it's where her bag is

Perfume's impact continues

Oh absolutely. She's been giving major M energy since Man's Best Friend. That's probably why Madonna wanted to collaborate, she probably sees a lot of herself in Sabrina. As for Katy, I can kinda see similarities with the pinup girl vibes, but honestly, Sabrina did it better

She'd be a perfect act for this show, but tbh I didn't even know they still had this going every year, i genuinely thought they stopped cause no one watches tv anymore

I feel like similar topics were covered back in 2019 with Lover (but maybe to a lesser extent) and now it's one of her most streamed albums and even avenged itself with a retroactive #1, so I guess not in the long run But let the girls on here get their kiis while it lasts, there isn't usually much fuel for them to drag (especially when it comes to success)

It's hilarious reading the initial pages of replies that didn't age well AT ALL. Poor users who broke their heels running in here with hate in their hearts

Yes, and she deserves a AOTY Grammy too but yall ain't ready for that conversation

At least Janet is doing Control 40 this year

I was wondering this too. I would've thought she would insist on honouring her god mother with at least an appearance or something. Maybe they banned her after the 2015 debacle

She teased something on it's 20th birthday, but that was over a month ago and we haven't heard anything since. She should've been back from her Italian fuckation in time to attend tonight's VMAs to announce a 20 year anniversary edition and perform an unreleased track as the lead along with Zara Larson. Why is her team playin. She is probably the worst when it comes to making the most of her legacy.

The music industry paying respect to the queen that made it what it is today

As the first artist to ever perform at the VMAs, she made this show what it is. It's built on "shocking" moments and that can be traced all the way back to her performance, It probably wouldn't exist today if it wasn't for her so they really owe this to her

Such a queen and she looked great too. She was so cute in all of her acceptance speeches. It's cute to see her so nervous and fumbling her words even after decades of winning awards.

Katy being a trailblazer yet again

She's never returning to pop stardom, so there's no point anticipating a "comeback" just to have a happy Hollywood ending. If they are gonna go through with it, it can capture up until the end of the conservatorship as her "triumphant" moment. Ethically it isn't great overall considering how she still has struggles till this day, but hey at least if she's still alive she can speak her truth if she wants rather than some Hollywood execs coming in to fabricate her own story when she's passed—cause you just know they're gonna make one when she's gone.

So Charli is confirmed as guest right. Wonder if she'll be the only guest. Maybe the celebs from the video for Danceteria?

Well also Britney herself has brown eyes, so it'd be an odd choice anyway

Like what @Erreur2 La Nature said, this is false and they haven't even gotten to the point of casting plans yet, but also I hope this MAGA girl doesn't get anywhere near this project. I thought we cancelled her already after the AE campaign why is she still getting casted for anything

It's crazy they even bothered reviewing a deluxe reissue when they don't normally do that with other artists

You're talking about a girl who has won AOTY 4 times and had a celebrity "squad". If anything She's the popular girl in high school

It was obviously meant to help campaign for the Grammys, but also I think she was trying to have another 1989 era—she was basically already half way there within the first week, it's a Max Martin produced album, it's meant to be a palatable GP friendly album, it has multiple #1s. The only problem is that people are actually rejecting it and so it backfired.
