    FKA twigs Thanks Lil Nas X for Publicly Acknowledging Similarities Between Their Music Videos

    Instagram

    The ‘Cellophane’ singer is grateful to the ‘Old Town Road’ hitmaker for admitting there are similarities between her music video and his newly released ‘Montero’ visual.

    Apr 1, 2021

    AceShowbiz –
    Lil Nas X has thanked FKA twigs for informing him of the similarities between his video for “Montero (Call Me by Your Name)” and the visual for her track “Cellophane”.

    Upon the release of Nas’s new video, fans were quick to point out the likenesses between the two videos, with some accusing him of ripping off Twigs’ concept.

    However, the “Old Town Road” star insisted in a post on Instagram on Tuesday (30March21) that he was “unaware” of the similarities between the two videos until he received a phone call from Twigs herself.

    “I want to show love to @fkatwigs & (Cellophane video director) @andrewthomashuang ! the cellophane visual is a masterpiece. i was not aware that the visual would serve as a major inspiration for those who worked on the effects of my video.”

    Following his comment, Twigs was quick to praise him for his honesty about the situation, writing, “Thank you @lilnasx for our gentle honest conversations and for acknowledging the inspiration cellophane gave you and your creative team in creating your iconic video!”

    “I think what you have done is amazing and i fully support your expression and bravery in pushing culture forward for the queer community. legend status.”

    The hip-hop/rap contenders include Day1’s “Boss, I’m Good?” by Hilltop Hoods and ONEFOUR’s “In the Beginning”, while Becca Hatch’s “2560”, “Rain” by The Teskey Brothers and Milan Ring’s “Say to Me” are in the running for the R&B/Soul accolade.

    Meanwhile, The Kid LAROI, Mallrat, Miieha, Thelma Plum and Lime Cordiale are up for Breakthrough Songwriter of the Year, and Dua Lipa picks up another mention for Most Performed International Work for “Don’t Start Now”, which faces stiff competition from “Adore You” by Harry Styles, Lewis Capaldi’s “Before You Go”, The Weeknd’s “Blinding Lights” and “Memories” by Maroon 5.

    Willie Nelson Sings 'I'll Be Seeing You' to Encourage People to Get Vaccinated for COVID-19

    WENN/Nikki Nelson

    Collaborating with Ad Council and COVID Collaborative for the public safety campaign, the country icon hopes that people will be as confident as him when taking their coronavirus shot.

    Mar 30, 2021

    AceShowbiz –
    Willie Nelson has re-recorded Irving Kahal and Sammy Fain’s Broadway standard “I’ll Be Seeing You” for a new Ad Council and COVID Collaborative public safety campaign to encourage people to get vaccinated.

    The country icon included the 1930s tune on his 1994 studio album, “Healing Hands of Time”, and now he’s revisiting the song from the musical “Right This Way” to serve as the soundtrack for a new ad featuring a montage of unforgettable sports moments and crowd reactions, reminding viewers what the world was like before the COVID lockdown.

    In the background, Nelson sings, “I’ll be seeing you… In all the old familiar places…That this heart of mine embraces… All day through.” He continues, “In that small cafe… The park across the way… The children’s carousel… The chestnut trees… The wishin’ well…”

    In order to bring sporting events and other aspects of everyday life before coronavirus pandemic back as quickly as possible, a simple message to urge people in getting their COVID-19 shot when it’s their turn flashed across the screen at the end of the clip. “The COVID-19 vaccines are here. We’ll see you soon,” it read.

    “I’m happy to be part of this new campaign with the Ad Council, COVID Collaborative and these sports organizations to empower millions more to get the answers they need and feel confident in getting vaccinated, like I did,” Nelson says in a statement.

    Willie, 87, got his dose of the vaccine in January and posed for a series of pictures in his car at a drive-through site. “Getting your COVID vaccine is Willie cool!” he said at the time.

    Lil Wayne and Foushee Collaborate Once Again for Her New Song 'Gold Fronts'

    The singer, who was previously featured on the New Orleans-based rapper’s latest single ‘Ain’t Got Time’, reveals that she got his verse after showing him the song in person.

    Mar 30, 2021

    AceShowbiz –
    Lil Wayne and Foushee have treated fans to a new collaboration. The New Orleans-based rapper and the “Deep End Freestyle” songstress, who previously worked together for his latest single “Ain’t Got Time”, collaborated once again for her new song called “Gold Fronts”.

    The 38-year-old MC announced the release of its music video via Instagram on Monday, March 29. Sharing a part of the clip in which he rapped his verse, he exclaimed, “Video OUT NOW!!! @fousheelive ‘GOLD FRONTS’ ft Me!!!!”

    Also celebrating the new song release was Foushee. Posting the footage on her own Instagram account, she declared, “GOLDFRONTS ft @liltunechi out now. this one special… thank you team!” She followed it up with another point of the clip by writing, “@liltunechi they can’t take our gold fronts!!!!”

    “Gold Fronts”, which is created as if it talks about grills, narrates the experience of Black people in the United States. It also tells about how 2020 has affected many people’s mental health like depression as Foushee rhymes about self-medication. Wayne then joins in and harmonizes with the singer during her chorus.

    When opening up about her collaboration with Wayne, Foushee revealed that she got his verse after showing him the song in person. “It started with Wayne DMed me, just showing love,” she told Zane Lowe on his Apple Music’s show. “I threw out the idea to work and he was with it. And I was so shocked. This is someone that I listen to him. I was just like… This is what a lot of those moments where I’m just like… There’s nothing like…. I got my sound effects too. That was planned. Yeah. So he agreed to work.”

    “I went to Miami, I got there. It was just like, ‘What we working on?’ And I was so shocked because I’m like, ‘What? What? No, wait, wait. I’m just a bit like, can I just play some music first off?’ Played him a whole bunch of music,” the alternative artist continued. “He played me some music. And I was like, ‘Wow. Can I do something to one of your songs?’ So I ended up recording to his songs and it took me so long to write. Because I was just like sweating.”

    “I had this birthday party. And it’s just such a beautiful night. We were linking up for the first time in a long time, just very intimate birthday party. And then he just texted me. He just texted, words, right here. Whoo. I was like, ‘Wait. No, no, no.’ I was playing music. I’m like, ‘Everybody, I’m going to play this song right now.’ And we all started running and screaming,” she went on recalling. “He didn’t even start the real s**t. We’re just like, ‘Oh. Yeah.’ ”

    Foushee admitted that she was thrilled upon hearing Wayne rhyming the lyrics. “I thought it was the most beautiful verse I heard from him from a long time. I thought he really put his heart and soul into that. And it was a different side of him that we haven’t seen in a while,” she pointed out.

    That aside, the two powerhouse RnB singers are set to reunite for a collaborative project between Peloton and ‘Verzuz’ as they launch their new Peloton Verzuz Artist Series.

    Mar 30, 2021

    AceShowbiz –
    Even years after Monica and Brandy released their hit “The Boy Is Mine”, people are still talking about the iconic track. Apparently, one fan thought that the singers were fighting over a man for real with the song and that prompted Monice to clear up the misunderstanding.

    ” ‘The Boy is Mine’ gives me such secondhand embarrassment,” the fan wrote in a tweet over the weekend. “@4everBrandy and @MonicaDenise fighting over a MAN when they’re both goddesses? makes me sick.”

    Monica caught wind of the post and didn’t hesitate to clap back at the fan. “I think she and I both are more concerned that 20 + plus years later you’ve still not come to grips with it not being real [laughing and crying emojis] GTFOS Sincerely from the 90s,” she told the fan.

    Monica clapped back at fan.

    Fans were amused by the interaction as one replied, “That girl was born in the 2000s. She don’t know no better.” Someone else tweeted, “Lmfaooo got her a** together.” One person added, “This is what happens when you’re too woke, your a$$ get the wrong one. Get some sleep, this woke stuff aint fuh everybody.”

    “Oop!!!! The secondhand embarrassment i have for her right now….,” another fan said. “Did she think y’all was beefing over and man and then decided to hop on a diss track together?!?” one user wrote. However, someone thought the first user was just joking. “I could be wrong, but I don’t think she was being serious,” the person noted.

    That aside, Monica and Brandy are set to reunite for a collaborative project between Peloton and “Verzuz”. Announcing the project, Monica wrote to her Twitter followers, “Peloton just launched their new Peloton Verzuz Artist Series. It’s me vs. Brandy. Join me on the Peloton Bike, Tread or App and get ready for all my hits. This is fitness like you’ve never seen it before. Download the Peloton App and check it out today!”

    Lil Nas X Admits 'MONTERO' Backlash Takes Emotional Toll on Him

    Instagram

    While he appeared to be defiant in his previous responses to the criticism over the music video of his latest single, the ‘Old Town Road’ hitmaker claims his ‘anxiety is higher than ever’ now.

    Mar 30, 2021

    AceShowbiz –
    Lil Nas X does have concerns after his “MONTERO (Call Me By Your Name)” music video sparked backlash. Despite his seemingly defiant responses to the criticism, the rapper has now admitted that the whole controversy surrounding the clip and his “MONTERO”-inspired shoes has taken a toll on him emotionally.

    “i’ll be honest all this backlash is putting an emotional toll on me,” so he tweeted on Monday, March 29. “i try to cover it with humor but it’s getting hard,” he confessed, before revealing, “my anxiety is higher than ever.”

    Still, he included a promotion for his latest single as he concluded his tweet with, “and stream call me by your name on all platforms now!”

    Lil Nas X admitted ‘MONTERO’ backlash has taken emotional toll on him.
    Lil Nas’ tweet was met with supportive messages from his fans and famous pals, including YouTube stars James Charles and Nikita Dragun.

    James Charles responded to Lil Nas’ tweet.

    Nikita Dragun also sent supportive message to the rapper.

    Lil Nas came under fire following the release of the “MONTERO” music video on Friday, March 26. While many praised the clip’s prominent LGBT themes, others took issue with the overt sexuality and invocation of religious imagery.

    Speaking with Genius, the Grammy-winning artist explained what it is he wanted to say with the provocative new song. “I was like, ‘It’s about time I say something out of pocket in a song,’ ” he said of the openly sexual lyrics in the song. “Let’s normalize having these f**king lines in songs, the same way somebody might talk about f**king a girl or f**king a guy.”

    He added that the song’s title was inspired by 2017’s film “Call Me by Your Name” starring Armie Hammer and Timothee Chalamet. “That was one of the first gay films that I had watched, and I thought the theme was so dope of calling somebody by your own name,” he said. “The way everything is shot, the way the dialogue goes on, the way the background sounds are used, everything about it is so artsy.”

    Lil Nas previously seemed to poke fun at the controversy over his “MONTERO” music video by posting a “bathroom of hell” edit version. The video’s title describes the scene that features bathroom stall as “MONTERO but ur in the bathroom of hell while lil nas is giving satan a lap dance in the other room.”

    Mick Fleetwood Dreams of Holding Special Concert Series With All Fleetwood Mac Members

    Facebook

    The rock band co-founder makes the confession about revisiting every incarnation of his group line-up weeks after revealing he has reconciled with former bandmate Lindsey Buckingham.

    Mar 30, 2021

    AceShowbiz –
    Veteran rocker Mick Fleetwood dreams of one day bringing together every member of Fleetwood Mac, past and present, for a big reunion tour.

    The “Landslide” hitmakers have undergone a series of line-up changes over the years, and the music icon would love to revisit every incarnation of the group for a special concert series.

    Asked who will be joining him on the road for the next Fleetwood Mac tour, he told the Los Angeles Times, “I hope the whole f**king lot of them! I’m not done. And if I can get John McVie off his boat, he’s not done either!”

    “My English pipe dream, sitting on top of a mushroom, would be that everyone who’s ever played in Fleetwood Mac would be welcome,” Mick shared. “That’s what would drive me, because this is all about a collective.”

      See also…

    Mick’s comments emerge weeks after revealing he has reconciled with his friend and former bandmate Lindsey Buckingham, who was dumped by the band in 2018.

    “I’ve really enjoyed being re-connected with Lindsey, which has been gracious and open,” he shared. “And both of us have been beautifully honest about who we are and how we got to where we were.”

    And when asked if he thinks Lindsey could rejoin the group, Mick added, “Strange things can happen. I look at Fleetwood Mac as a huge family. Everyone plays an important role in our history, even someone like [early ’70s] guitarist Bob Welch, who was huge and sometimes gets forgotten.”

    “Lindsey’s position in Fleetwood Mac will, for obvious reasons, never been forgotten, as it should never be forgotten [sic].”

    “My vision of things happening in the future is really far-reaching. Would I love to think that [a reunion] could happen? Yeah. I’d love to think that all of us could be healed, and also respect the people who are in the band, Neil Finn and Michael Campbell.”

    Johnny Depp Likely to Come Up With Interesting Songs Amid Libel Trial, Alice Cooper Suggests

    WENN/Avalon

    Calling the ‘Pirates of the Caribbean’ actor one of his best buddies, the Hollywood Vampires member looks forward to reunite in concert with him and fellow bandmate Joe Perry.

    Mar 30, 2021

    AceShowbiz –
    Johnny Depp is continuing to use his Hollywood Vampires songwriting as therapy amid his bitter legal battles linked to his split from ex-wife Amber Heard, according to his bandmate Alice Cooper.

    The “Pirates of the Caribbean” star was most recently denied an appeal in his U.K. libel trial after objecting to editors at The Sun calling him a “wife beater”, following prior allegations of domestic abuse made by Heard.

    Depp has vehemently denied the claims, and is also suing the “Aquaman” actress in a separate legal case in the U.S., accusing her of defamation for referring to herself as a victim of domestic abuse in a Washington Post article.

    Cooper previously revealed Depp had channeled his “anger” over the messy situation into his work with the Hollywood Vampires, with songs from the rock supergroup’s 2019 album, “Rise”, filled with his “venom”, and their next release appears to be heading in a similar creative direction.

    Cooper told The Daily Beast, “I know Johnny was writing all last year, when that whole thing [libel trial] was going on with him. But you know, that’s not going to stop him from going home and writing. In fact, it probably helped. I’m expecting some pretty interesting songs.”

    And despite his personal woes, Depp is eager to get back out on the road when it’s safe enough to do so. “There’s no drama [with his work in the band],” Cooper insisted. “[Depp] said, ‘Hey, that’s another world. That has nothing to do with what I’m doing in the band.’ He’s like, ‘I can’t wait to get back onstage.’ He’s one of my best buddies.”

    Cooper also cannot wait to reunite in concert with Depp and bandmate Joe Perry, after recently having to cancel their summer European tour due to COVID-19 concerns. “It’ll be great when we all get together,” he smiled.

    “You know, the crazy thing about that band is you’ve got eight guys in the band, and you’ve got three alpha males leading it, but there’s never been one argument. Nobody’s ever even raised their voice to anybody in that band. It’s really cool.”
