      When admitting that he has since learned to take a more laid back approach, the One Direction member claims to have found confidence as solo artist because of fans’ warm welcome.

      Feb 22, 2021
      AceShowbiz – Pop star Harry Styles has learned not to try too hard when he’s in the recording studio, because it often results in his “worst music”.
      The “Fine Line” hitmaker has learned to take a more laid back approach to creating new material in order to showcase his most authentic self.
      He said, “I have always made my worst music when I’m trying the hardest and when it feels a little bit too easy and feels a bit safe and it’s just like, ‘Oh yeah, this is what people want’. I try to write music as a fan of music. I just don’t really know how else to do it, I guess.”
      “Ultimately, everyone who works in music are just fans. Like, I’m just a fan of music and get to make some, so I try to make it from that perspective.”

      Harry finally felt confidence as a solo artist when he was given a warm welcome by fans at his post-One Direction shows.
      Speaking on SiriusXM, he added, “The confidence came after feeling accepted by the crowds. When I went out to do shows on my own, I was amazed people were coming to see me.”
      His music career aside, Harry recently made headlines for his relationship with Olivia Wilde. The “Don’t Worry Darling” co-stars first sparked romance rumors when they were filmed attending his manager Jeffrey Azoff’s wedding together over the weekend. In the clip published by Page Six, the pair walked and held hands at the venue which took place at San Ysidro Ranch in Montecito, California.
      Prior to dating Harry, Olivia was engaged to comedian Jason Sudeikis, whom she shares two children with, for seven years. As for Harry, the musician was last linked romantically to several names including Camille Rowe, Taylor Swift and British presenter Caroline Flack.

      DaBaby Reacts to Backlash Following Bizarre JoJo Siwa Diss in New Song

      by

      Following DaBaby’s clarification of the name-drop of the former child star, some Internet users jump to the ‘Masterpiece’ spitter’s defense as one writes in an Instagram comment, ‘Y’all just don’t understand his word play.’

      Feb 22, 2021
      AceShowbiz – DaBaby released a new freestyle on Saturday, February 20 and he successfully confused fans as he appeared to diss former child star JoJo Siwa. Titled “Beatbox Freestyle”, the song saw the “ROCKSTAR” spitter taking aim at the 17-year-old YouTube star.
      “Turn me up, n***a gon’ see why/ N***a, you a b***h, JoJo Siwa (B***h),” so he rapped in his version of Spotem Gottem’s “Beatbox”. While the rhyme matched perfectly, fans couldn’t help but criticize DaBaby for the name-drop as blogger Perez Hilton wrote on Twitter, “DaBaby is disrespecting our queen #JoJoSiwa! Oh, hell no!!!.”
      A fan of the “Dance Moms” alum chimed in, “what kind of beef could DaBaby possibly have with JoJo Siwa.” Someone else added, “Out of all the people on the INTERNET… jojo siwa…. girl wut?”
      DaBaby apparently caught wind of the backlash and responded in a tweet. ” I love Twitter bruh,” so the rapper wrote alongside several laughing and crying emojis. “I ‘Siwa’ I’m not like the rest of you n****s.”

      In a follow-up tweet, DaBaby revealed that he had no hard feelings for the former child star and it was all love for her. “@itsjojosiwa my 3 year old princess is your number 1 fan. I bought her every product you have out. She think she you,” he wrote on the blue bird app. “Don’t let em trick you into thinking id ever have a problem with you. My word play just went over their heads. All love on my end shawty, Keep shinning!”

      The hip-hop star continued to poke fun at his own word play as he added in a separate tweet, “I don’t ‘Siwa’ they so mad either bae.”
      Following the clarification, some Internet users jumped to DaBaby’s defense. “Y’all just don’t understand his word play,” one noted in an Instagram comment. “IT’S SAD THAT ARTIST HAVE TO EVEN EXPLAIN THEMSELVES. MY GOSH,” another fan added. “Y’all definitely stretched it. The word play was obvious,” someone chimed in.
      JoJo, meanwhile, has yet to comment on the name-drop.

      Kate Hudson Understands Criticisms Over Her Autism Movie but Insists Lots of Love Was Put Into Film

      by

      IMAX

      The ‘Deepwater Horizon’ actress insists there was no negative intention behind the Sia-directed movie although she understands why some people feel apprehensive.

      Feb 22, 2021
      AceShowbiz – Kate Hudson has acknowledged the backlash surrounding the portrayal of autism in her new film “Music”, insisting it’s “an important conversation to have.”
      “Music”, singer Sia’s directorial debut, features the “Almost Famous” star as a recently-sober drug dealer who is suddenly made the guardian of her younger sister, a non-verbal special needs teen, played by dancer/actress Maddie Ziegler, who is not on the autism spectrum.
      However, the movie has offended so many in the community and has even prompted calls for Hollywood Foreign Press Association bosses to pull the project’s two Golden Globe nominations.
      Hudson insists there was no intention to offend with the project, but she can understand why people are so outraged.

      “I think when people see the film, that they will see the amount of love and sensitivity that was put into it,” she told U.S. talk show host Jimmy Kimmel. “But it is an important conversation to have, not just about this movie, but as a whole – about representation.”
      “For me, when I hear that there’s anybody that feels left out I feel terrible,” she continued. “It’s an ongoing and important dialogue to be had, about neurotypical actors portraying neurodivergent characters. It is an important one to have with people with experts and who know how to engage in the conversation. I encourage it, truly. I think that it’s important to say that we are listening.”
      And despite the negative reactions to “Music”, Hudson is still “really excited” about her Golden Globe nod for Best Musical/Comedy Actress, adding, “I really wasn’t expecting it at all. It was very exciting.”
      “Music” is also up for Best Musical/Comedy Picture at the upcoming ceremony.
      Sia recently apologised following criticism of one scene, in which an autistic character is restrained, promising to attach a warning to the movie stating the film “in no way condones or recommends the use of restraint on autistic people.”

      by

      Facebook

      The late Nigerian musical icon has become a frontrunner to be one of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductees as the public voting for Class of 2021 has begun.

      Feb 21, 2021
      AceShowbiz – Late Afrobeat legend Fela Kuti has emerged as a front-runner for induction into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame a week after voting for the Class of 2021 began.
      The Nigerian superstar has scored 140,000 fan votes, according to Rock Hall officials – 30,000 more than Tina Turner in second place and 60,000 more than third-placed Foo Fighters.
      The official 2021 Rock Hall class will be announced in May.
      Iron Maiden, Mary J. Blige, and Jay-Z are also among the artists in consideration for induction.

      Announced earlier this month, the list has 16 nominees that also include the likes of Dionne Warwick, LL Cool J, the Go-Go’s, Carole King, Kate Bush, Devo, Chaka Khan, Todd Rundgren, the New York Dolls, and Rage Against the Machine.
      “This remarkable ballot reflects the diversity and depth of the artists and music the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame celebrates” said John Sykes, the chairman of the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame Foundation in a press release obtained People. “These Nominees have left an indelible impact on the sonic landscape of the world and influenced countless artists that have followed them.”
      Music fans can cast their votes for their favourite stars beginning Wednesday through 30 April, on the Rock Halls website.
      Meanwhile, Ohio music lovers can also vote in-person at The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Museum.
      The Hall is still hoping that the COVID situation will improve to allow for a live induction ceremony in the fall, after last year’s class had to settle for a taped HBO special.

      Nick Cave and His Band Offer Over 100 Prizes to Raise Funds for Tour Crew Amid Covid-19 Pandemic

      by

      WENN

      Nick and the Bad Seeds have launched an online fundraiser to help support their tour crew, whose livelihoods have been badly affected by the Covid-19 pandemic.

      Feb 21, 2021
      AceShowbiz – Nick Cave has launched an initiative to raise funds for cash-strapped crew members struggling due to the Covid-19 lockdown.
      The rocker and his band The Bad Seeds were forced to cancel their 2021 tour at the end of last year, resulting in further financial hardship for their road crew and now Cave is hoping the crowdfunding idea will help cover their basic living costs.
      He and his bandmates are offering up a series of prizes and experiences for fans to bid on as part of the crowdfunder, which launched on Thursday (18Feb21).
      “Work for our crew has vanished,” a message on the site reads. “As freelancers, there has been little or no support on offer to them from the authorities, and available work elsewhere is currently almost non-existent.”

        See also…

      “We have supported our direct crew as best as we can, but we thought we’d also have a bit of fun with a prize draw to help raise funds for them.”
      Cave and his bandmates aren’t the only ones launching campaigns to help crew members – Foo Fighters and Muse are among the acts who have donated prizes for a #ILoveLive draw, with all proceeds benefiting charities set up to aid out-of-work crew members.

      Nick Cave and his band offer more than 100 prizes for the fundraiser. “Among the prizes to win are The Bad Seeds’ own signed instruments, a limited edition art print of Nick Cave, show tickets, gift vouchers, and much more,” they announced.

      Pete Townshend Has Amassed 'Pages and Pages of Draft Lyrics' for The Who's Next Album

      by

      WENN

      Pete plans to reunite with bandmate Roger Daltrey in recording studio to work on their band’s next studio installment as the reminder of their tour is canceled due to Covid-19 crisis.

      Feb 21, 2021
      AceShowbiz – Rocker Pete Townshend is plotting to team up with singer Roger Daltrey after lockdown for a new The Who album.
      The guitarist, 75, is working in his home studio and “wants to make another” record if it’s worthwhile financially, insisting streaming income is “a joke.”
      “There’s pages and pages of draft lyrics,” he says, reported Britain’s Daily Mirror newspaper. “If the moment comes, I’ll go in and start.”

        See also…

      The band released their 12th studio album, “Who”, in 2019 to critical acclaim, but the star admits he and frontman Daltrey, 76, “only just about got it done” due to their differing views.
      “We’re very different – politically, socially, spiritually, in every respect,” he adds. “But we happen to be in this band together.”
      Amid the pandemic, the rockers have been forced to cancel previously-postponed plans to tour the U.K. and Ireland. The musicians had originally rescheduled the March, 2020 dates for this year (21), but ongoing coronavirus concerns prompted them to ditch the shows altogether to avoid possibly having to rebook the gigs once more.
      “We are very sorry that we have to cancel our planned March 2021 UK and Ireland shows. Please excuse the delay but we wanted to wait as long as possible to see if we could indeed play them. However, as you can see the current situation makes this impossible. Thanks for all your wonderful support and we hope to see you in the future when conditions allow,” the duo issued a joint apology following the cancellation.
