https://twitter.com/Grimezsz/status/1779439117392400817 Grimes Faces 'Major Technical Difficulties' During Coachella 2024 Set: 'Don't Judge Me for Being Bad at Calculating Things' Grimes had to restart the song 'Music 4 Machines' multiple times because she could not get the bpm right. She made attempts to rectify the problem on stage but to no avail. "This is a difficult thing to explain, but we're having a major technical error,” she said. "Don't judge me for being bad at calculating things.” She tried to do the math on stage to work out the bpm that songs needed to be played at, but it wouldn't work; in the end, she abandoned her setlist for new material. In between each track, even though the songs she was performing were going well, Grimes wasn't worried about letting out her frustration as she screamed angrily, saying it wasn't her fault. "I'm trying to think. I'm not good enough at math for this ****,” she said. She screamed in frustration several times, as well as apologising and promising to to fix the problems ahead of Weekend 2 of Coachella. In the end, she finally led into "Genesis,” but the set was cut short and she exited the stage. Variety faroutmagazine Grimes tweeted that her set was not ready a few hours before her performance

Only the most prominent pop vocalists of our generation!!!

The cliche image of Lana Del Rey – flower crown, heart-shaped sunglasses, Lolita pout – matches the cliche of a Coachella girl. Both Del Rey and the festival saw a peak in the mid-2010s, during the early years of influencer culture excess. So it makes sense that Coachella's golden girl would headline … even though, in 2024, Del Rey doing so feels about a decade too late. Indeed, Del Rey first played Coachella exactly 10 years to the day before Friday's opening night performance, as she proudly told the crowd. This time, she rode in on a biker motorcade, clad in a baby blue sequin dress, smiling and waving like the beauty queens she's prone to singing about. It was ambitious, lively crowd work – literal momentum to started the show off right. But then she opened her mouth. Del Rey has become an icon for the dour and terminally online, in no small part to her well-known shtick: being too cool and half there. Unfortunately, her signature laconic delivery just didn't work for such a big stage, and came off as unprepared rather than unbothered. Ongoing mic problems plagued her set the whole way through, causing awkward stops, starts and moments where she just motioned for the singing crowd to pick up the slack for her. Her pitchy, faltering vocals were reminiscent of her disastrous 2012 Saturday Night Live performance, sometimes dubbed the worst in the show's history. (Whether or not that dubious distinction is fair or not is an argument for another day.) Back then, critics tore her vacant, yet somehow also trying-too-hard, turn to shreds. Del Rey has redeemed herself in the years since via some very good music, and enough time has passed that she can joke about the fiasco. While driving into town, I noticed that Del Rey poked fun at the SNL mishap on a billboard that referenced its airdate. I assume it was supposed to be a joke intended to show how far she's come. Instead, I fear it served as an omen. Was this a headline act, or a hostage-proof-of-life video? A woman standing next to me and I burst out laughing at Del Rey's lifeless delivery of the Summertime Sadness opening line "I'm feeling electric tonight" because, well, clearly she was not. Background dancers gave their all behind her, landing balletic, lyrical moves. At one point, when she attempted to artfully drape herself over one, it looked as if she might fall asleep right there. Del Rey maintained her capacity to surprise, though. Just when it felt as if she hit peak indifference watching, stalking around the stage and mumbling lyrics as if she had nothing better to do with her time, she transitioned into a segment where she lay on the stage and sang, straight up bed-rotting her way though Coachella. 2 stars https://www.theguardian.com/music/2024/apr/13/lana-del-rey-at-coachella-review-a-disappointingly-lifeless-start-to-the-festival

omg why is spotify so shady towards LaLegend?

Her song Gangsta from the Suicide Squad soundtrack was used in a mashup with Lana's early unreleased song Jealous Girl during her entrance with a motorcycle gang.

Basically she believes the government uses the media/entertainment industry to distract people from paying attention to bigger issues so they stay quiet and do not make trouble. Do you think there is any basis of reality to her claims?

During Thursday's episode of the Deux U podcast, an anonymous source sent in a tip claiming that none other than Lenny Kravitz and Mariah Carey are dating! And they have been for a while! Sorry, Nick Cannon! You will have to wait in line to shoot your shot again with your ex-wife! The tipster claimed that they have been "quietly dating since November" and were supposedly spotted getting cozy at several events these past few months: "The former was even seen at the latter's Christmas concert in LA. Since then, the two have been honored at a number of industry events and been spotted getting awfully close.” Wait! So they were already seeing each other when her ex-boyfriend Bryan Tanaka confirmed in December that they broke up? Whoa! That would be very interesting… if true. For now, the insider claimed Mariah and Lenny have been keeping their relationship a secret since they are still in the beginning stages. However, they could be going public with their romance later this year?! The insider claimed: "Don't be surprised when the two make their relationship public at this year's Rock & Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremony, which both have been nominated for. They're keeping it under wraps just because it's the early days, but they both been spotted at a number of events together, including a discreet dinner date at Craig's in West Hollywood yesterday.” Read this on LSA and then realized the source was THAT man, anyway, I am here for mother and father.

Talented legends, we need a moment together

Michael J. Fox Slams Instant Internet Success: 'We Used to Bust Our A--' to Be Famous "Now you've got people who just go like, 'Who's your sweater? What's your sweater you're wearing? And what's that dance step?' And you're the most famous person in the world." Michael J. Fox isn't totally here for the overnight success some stars are experiencing these days. In a new interview with People for the magazine's 50th anniversary special, Fox looked back on his rise to fame and the work he had to put in in the 1980s to achieve the success he's amassed today. "There's an expression I referred to when they gave me an honorary Academy Award -- somebody said to me the day before, they were talking about getting this award and being famous and they said 'You're '80s famous,'" Fox told the outlet. "I thought, 'Wow, that's cool.' '80s famous. Right, we were different. We were tougher. We didn't have social media, we didn't have any of that crap. We were just famous. Left to our own resources. And it was an amazing time." Fox's star rose thanks to roles in shows like Palmerstown U.S.A., Night Court and Family Ties, and cemented himself in the Hollywood zeitgeist as Marty McFly for the Back to the Future franchise, a series of films that became American '80s classics. When asked if he thought that being famous during that time was harder, Fox had a pretty blunt answer: "Well, you had to be talented. That helped." "We used to bust our a--, our acting muscles and watch other actors and sit around with other actors and talk about acting and talk about it," he continued. "And now you've got people who just go like, 'Who's your sweater? What's your sweater you're wearing? And what's that dance step?' And you're the most famous person in the world." While Fox hasn't acted since 2020 because of his battle with Parkinson's disease, which has made it increasingly difficult to remember dialogue, he said he would consider coming back to acting if the role felt right. "My biggest goal, I think, was to raise a family. We have four amazing kids, and that's been the big thing," Fox told Entertainment Tonight earlier this month. "And then the other is with the [Michael J. Fox] foundation…[however] if something came up that I could put my realities into it -- my challenges -- if I could figure it out." He added, "If someone offers me a part and I do it and I have a good time, great." https://toofab.com/2024/04/12/michael-j-fox-slams-instant-internet-success-we-used-to-bust-our-a-to-be-famous/?adid=social-fb&fbclid=IwAR1IgUQ38MTN_BJNlDfnIFIQ5mBUXiJQtLmjvhxKNxa453T-loMH05ecQc0
