      Brandon Flowers Bans His Kids From Listening to Morrissey's Songs Due to His Racist Views

      by

      Instagram

      The Killers frontman, who’s also The Smiths superfan, says he won’t encourage his children to listen to Morrissey’s music because of the latter’s support for far-right groups.
      Apr 18, 2020
      AceShowbiz – The Smiths superfan Brandon Flowers won’t play Morrissey’s music to his kids due to the singer’s allegedly racist views.
      The Killers frontman is such a huge Smiths fan he once kept a cup Morrissey drank from in a cafe, and invited their former guitarist Johnny Marr on stage to perform with him at Glastonbury last year 2019.
      However, although he still listens to The Smiths due to his admiration for Marr, Brandon doesn’t plan to convince his three kids, aged between nine and 12, to share his obsession due to the “Panic” singer’s support for far-right groups.
      “I don’t think Marr should be held back because of Morrissey, so I don’t regret it,” he tells British newspaper The Times of his The Smiths fandom. “It is difficult to separate it (the band) from him, and I’m not going around playing the music in front of my kids.”
      However, he says that if the band’s songs did pop up on the radio, he’d still listen.
      “If What She Said came on the radio (when I was) with my kids, I wouldn’t change it,” the American rocker adds. “It’s still an amazing song, so I’m not that serious, where I would change the station. I don’t agree with him, but I’m not going to burn my CDs by The Smiths or anything.”
      Flowers previously said he still regarded Morrissey as “a king” because of his musical achievements, but confessed to having forgotten about the controversy over his comments supporting the far-right For Britain party and other comments on race.

      Lauren Jauregui Warns People to Keep Their Distance Through '50ft.'

      by

      Instagram

      Days prior to the song release, the former Fifth Harmony member revealed on social media that she wrote the single ‘from a space of reflection on how I interact with the world energetically.’
      Apr 18, 2020
      AceShowbiz – Former Fifth Harmony star Lauren Jauregui’s new song “50ft.” is a stark warning for people to keep their distance.
      Written in December (19), long before coronavirus lockdown measures came into place worldwide, the tune sees Jauregui detail how she sees through “the bulls**t” and keeps only an “exclusive” group of people close to her side. She keeps everyone else at a 50-foot distance, especially if they’re not supportive of her.
      “I wrote it from a space of reflection on how I interact with the world energetically,” Jauregui said on Instagram while debuting the single’s cover image.
      “This artwork truly encapsulates the feeling of distance spoken about in the song while asserting the closeness of my relationship to my loved ones (pictured with me are my mom and sister) who hold me the f**k down always and forever in the midst of it all.”

      A video for the tune was shot in December with her family and closest friends, and shows the star enjoying a gorgeous day in her Florida family home.

      After Fifth Harmony disbanded, Lauren officially launched her solo career in 2018 with the slow-burning single “Expectations”. She has since appeared on the “Birds of Prey: And the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn” soundtrack with “Invisible Chains”, and released the single “Lento”, with Puerto Rican reggaeton musician Tainy, last month (March).

      Lil Uzi Vert Appears to Sarcastically Laugh at Playboi Carti's New Song

      by

      Twitter/Instagram

      This arrives after the Philadelphia rapper blatantly calls the song ‘Just Meh’ on Twitter as soon as it was released in addition to clowning his longtime collaborator for his tweet.
      Apr 18, 2020
      AceShowbiz – Playboi Carti is poised to release his highly-anticipated album “Whole Lotta Red” soon, but before that happens, he treated his fans to a fresh single titled “@ MEH” on Thursday, April 16. The responses were pretty much mixed, and among the critics was Carti’s alleged foe Lil Uzi Vert.
      Uzi appeared to react sarcastically to Carti’s new song in a recent post on his Twitter account on Friday, April 17. He’s been doing some sort of things to taunt Carti. That included laughing at a good review of “@ MEH” from Maaly Raw, who praised the song by tweeting, “New Carti S**t Slap.” Seemingly thinking that it was ridiculous, Uzi responded to the tweet with a single laughing and crying emoji.

      Lil Uzi Vert laughed at Playboi Carti’s new song.
      This arrives after Uzi blatantly called the song “Just Meh” as soon as it was released. The Philadelphia rapper also clowned Carti for his tweet when he announced the release date of his new album. “MoNDay,” so Carti wrote on his account. Shortly after, Uzi followed it up with the exact same message on his own page.
      Uzi also hinted that he would sabotage Carti’s upcoming album. “Soon as HE drop imma drop again,” he said.
      The whole thing between Uzi and Carti unsurprisingly confused fans, who were wondering if the beef between Uzi and his longtime collaborator was real or if they were playing around. “IS CARTI AND UZI BEEFING OR ARE THEY COLLABING I NEED ANSWERS,” one frustrated fan asked.
      Another confused fan added, “Uzi is bullying the f**k outta this n***a carti bro what is happening right now.” Meanwhile, one comment read, “Me trynna figure out if Uzi and Carti beefing or not.”
      Carti has yet to comment on the supposed disses.

      Kelly Rowland Shows Off Her Hot Bod in 'Coffee' Music Video

      by

      The Destiny’s Child singer is unapologetic as she embraces her imperfections and celebrates women with ‘every shade, every coffee colour, every curve, every essence.’
      Apr 18, 2020
      AceShowbiz – Kelly Rowland is urging women to stop seeking the approval of others in her new single “Coffee”.
      The former Destiny’s Child star dropped the new track on Friday, April 17, 2020, and in its video the hitmaker, 39, flaunts her impressive, taut body, as she empowers women to be unapologetic.
      Discussing the concept behind the visual, Kelly told Essence, “I want to celebrate the women in video – every shade, every coffee colour, every curve, every essence and what they gave me.”
      [embedded content]
      “My intention I set for the video was to take the light in yourself and your sexuality (and put it in) a God perspective, in a way where you don’t have to get any approval from anybody else.”
      “Sometimes when women stand in our own sexuality, without approval from any external source, I think that there comes a different perspective, a different outlook, a different feeling, and usually we don’t even realise we’re doing it,” she added. “But I think society has kind of made it that way, especially with the Black woman.”
      “Coffee” is the first tune to be taken from Kelly’s upcoming fifth studio album – her first since 2013’s “Talk a Good Game”.

      Taylor Swift Calls Off Lover Fest and All Her Live Concerts for 2020 Amid Covid-19 Crisis

      by

      WENN

      The ‘You Need to Calm Down’ singer has decided to scrap her upcoming summer festival and other live shows for the rest of the year amid the coronavirus pandemic.
      Apr 18, 2020
      AceShowbiz – Taylor Swift has scrapped her “Lover Fest” shows and all 2020 live appearances and performances due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.
      Fans were hoping Swift’s sold out shows in Los Angeles and Massachusetts in July 2020 would survive the lockdown, but the singer has now decided that all her shows around the world should be axed, weeks after her headlining slot at the Glastonbury festival in the U.K. was cancelled.
      “Fighting COVID-19 is an unprecedented challenge for our global community and the safety and wellbeing of fans should always be the top priority,” a statement reads. “Health organizations and governments around the world have strongly discouraged large public gatherings for an undetermined period of time. With many events throughout the world already cancelled, and upon direction from health officials in an effort to keep fans safe and help prevent the spread of COVID-19, sadly the decision has been made to cancel all Taylor Swift live appearances and performances this year.”
      “The U.S. and Brazil shows will be rescheduled to take place in 2021, with dates to be announced later this year…”
      “Thank you so much for understanding. We look forward to seeing you all, happy and healthy, in the future.”
      And Taylor has tweeted the news to fans and followers, writing, “I’m so sad I won’t be able to see you guys in concert this year, but I know this is the right decision. Please, please stay healthy and safe. I’ll see you on stage as soon as I can but right now what’s important is committing to this quarantine, for the sake of all of us.”

      Rolling Stones Added to Lady GaGa's 'Together at Home' Concert

      by

      Instagram

      Mick Jagger and his bandmates are announced to join the upcoming star-studded ‘One World: Together at Home’ concert curated by the ‘Poker Face’ singer for Covid-19 relief efforts.
      Apr 18, 2020
      AceShowbiz – The Rolling Stones will perform during Lady GaGa’s star-studded “One World: Together at Home” livestreamed concert this weekend.
      Gaga is curating Saturday’s April 18, 2020 two-hour global TV special, arranged in partnership with officials from Global Citizen and the World Health Organisation, and has already secured remote appearances by Paul McCartney, Elton John, Chris Martin, Lizzo, Billie Eilish, John Legend, Kacey Musgraves, and Jennifer Lopez among many others.
      And on Friday, the Stones were added as last minute additions to the bill, announcing their participation on Twitter.
      “The Rolling Stones will be joining One World: #TogetherAtHome with @GlblCtzn and @WHO – Tune in tomorrow at 8pm ET, for this special broadcast event to honour healthcare workers on the frontlines of the #COVID19 pandemic,” a tweet from the band reads.
      The gig, hosted by comedians Stephen Colbert, Jimmy Kimmel, and Jimmy Fallon, will air simultaneously across the main U.S. TV networks from 8 P.M. EST, and be livestreamed on various digital platforms, as well as the Global Citizen Instagram and Facebook pages.
      In the U.K., the BBC will broadcast a highlights show on Sunday – which will feature additional performances by British acts Little Mix, Sir Tom Jones, and Rag’n’Bone Man.
      The U.S. event, will also feature the likes of Jennifer Hudson, Michael Buble, Annie Lennox, Common, The Killers, Luis Fonsi, Adam Lambert, Liam Payne, Niall Horan, Rita Ora, Ellie Goulding, Ke$ha, and Jessie J.
      GaGa has already helped to raise over $35 million for coronavirus relief efforts from corporations and donors, meaning fans have been asked to just “celebrate the heroic efforts of community health workers” during the telethon rather than make donations at a time when many are struggling with the economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.

      by

      The ‘Suge’ hitmaker released his third studio album ‘Blame It on Baby’ as a follow-up to his No. 1 record ‘Kirk’ on Thursday midnight, April 17, but many are not thrilled to listen to his new music.
      Apr 18, 2020
      AceShowbiz – DaBaby has completed his new album and released “Blame It on Baby” amid the coronavirus pandemic. But instead of taking pleasure in getting new music from their favorite star and enjoying it, many end up getting disappointed after listening to the album.
      After the record was made available for streams on Friday, April 17 at midnight, fans quickly took to Twitter to share their opinion on DaBaby’s third studio album. They didn’t hold back on sharing their criticisms over the record, with one writing, “I hope I like the new dababy album but if not he definitely did have a good run.”
      Thinking that it wasn’t worth to be released, another wondered, “so….uh… who tf approved the dababy album?” Another admitted, “Yeah I’m disappointed,” while someone bluntly said, “I can confirm it’s trash.. nothing to see here guys.”
      Another shared what’s wrong about the album, “DaBaby’s lack of versatility is gonna hurt him badly.” One other user weighed in, “@DaBabyDaBaby album is not good because he’s rapping about what he thinks everyone wants to hear scared to show people how educated and diverse he really is . I hope next time you really y’all yo s**t.”
      Some others, meanwhile, blamed the bad record on DaBaby making three albums within the span of one year. “Might be time for DaBaby to hang it up. Back to back albums,” one of them claimed.
      But there are still a few who think that DaBaby’s “Blame It on Baby” isn’t that bad. “I don’t care if DaBaby sounds the same a lot. He gets me hyped,” a fan commented. “I’d rate Dababy album a 6.5/10. He got a couple hit but it could have definitely been better,” another gave a mixed review. Similarly, someone else said, “It wasn’t horrible buttttttt it is not his best work.”
      Disagreeing with the critics, one shared, “I like it.” One other echoed the sentiment, “Y’all are tripping his album is LIT!!” Additionally, someone responded to the haters, “honestly yall not listening to the album right. jus because the beat may not fit ur style doesnt mean he aint spittin. listen to baby he actually speakin.”
