Jo Jo Siwa BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.JoJo Siwa has turned the past week into a biographical highlight reel worthy of any modern pop culture icon. Right as September wraps up, she launched her much-anticipated new single Infinity Heart, the title track for her upcoming Infinity Heart Tour which opens in Dublin on September 29 and rolls through Europe with sold-out shows. Attitude Magazine spotlighted the release and the meaning behind it, with JoJo sharing on Instagram how the motif, rooted in her work for childhood cancer, is a symbol for her new chapter. She called the song a return to the creative, candid mentality of her youth, stating Infinity Heart is about enduring and growing through every twist of life.The streaming numbers on Infinity Heart are already strong, surfing atop her recent hits Bette Davis Eyes—which drew both chart love and critique from the original artist Kim Carnes via a TMZ interview for its striking similarity—and Raspy, which went viral across TikTok and Instagram.

During a live Big Brother UK stream this week, as reported by AOL, she discussed shifting her sexual identity label from lesbian to queer, emphasizing how the show inspired her to reconsider and become more comfortable with uncertainty around gender identity. Viewers saw her emotional honesty, admitting she now feels most aligned with nonbinary people but isn't ready for public declarations—an evolution noticed by both fans and LGBTQ+ outlets online. She maintains a high-profile relationship with Chris Hughes, and several outlets including CNN have noted things are "going great" between them.JoJo's business activities are going at full throttle. Alongside a blitz of endorsements and media partnerships, she participated in a sweet on-air reunion with Abby Lee Miller on Access Daily last week at Universal's Epic Universe in Orlando. They shared mutual respect and nostalgia for Dance Moms days—a touchstone moment for legacy fans and a trending topic on TikTok and Threads.Online, JoJo keeps fueling conversation.

Jo Jo Siwa BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Jo Jo Siwa has been making headlines across the entertainment world this week, both for her personal life and impactful statements that have set social media buzzing. According to The Pink News and Attitude, the most talked-about development is her very public clarification of her sexuality following intense speculation and backlash after confirming her relationship with Chris Hughes, known from Love Island and Celebrity Big Brother UK. Siwa, who historically identified as a lesbian and later as pansexual and queer, has been vocal in interviews with SiriusXM's Smith Sisters Live and Reign with Josh Smith that while she's happily in love with a man, she is “not straight” and that being in a heterosexual relationship does not erase her queerness or discredit her past relationships with women and non-binary people. She has described the love she has with Hughes as something she's never experienced before, and social media commentary on both sides has been fierce, with Siwa highlighting recently that much of the hate has actually come from within the LGBTQ+ community, something she finds particularly hurtful but refuses to let sour her happiness.The Daily Mail sparked further chatter after Hughes' father speculated that Jo Jo and Chris could be married before Christmas, a notion Jo Jo herself seemed to support during the Reign podcast, saying that for the first time she craves a wedding and all its traditions, which is a significant personal shift for someone who previously dismissed the idea of a big ceremony.Business hasn't lagged behind her personal story. Jo Jo Siwa's recent appearance on shows like The Room Where It Happened podcast dissected her branding strategy, with commentators noting her calculated but authentic approach to career pivots. On the music front, her single Karma continued to generate buzz as she completed her European tour, with a Dublin show coming up at The Academy on September 29, according to JamBase listings.A viral resurfaced clip from the GLADD Media Awards made rounds this week after AOL reported that Siwa spent fifty thousand dollars on cosmetic dental work, and critics on social media have debated her new edgier style—including comments from Kiss bassist Gene Simmons who praised her boldness in adopting a more rock-inspired look at the iHeartRadio Music Awards, an event that saw her trending for days.Through all this, Siwa continues to leverage her massive social platforms to discuss the pressures of fame, transformation, and living honestly, making her not just a tabloid fixture, but a focal point in ongoing cultural conversations around sexuality, generational change in the LGBTQ+ community, and the price of celebrity reinvention.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOtaThis content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI

Jo Jo Siwa BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.JoJo Siwa's September has been overloaded with headline-making moments and public candor. Most recently, JoJo opened up emotionally on the Reign with Josh Smith podcast and in the pages of People, beaming about her burgeoning romance with Chris Hughes, the Love Island alum she met on Celebrity Big Brother UK. JoJo credits Chris with changing her entire perspective on love and weddings—she shared that, for the first time, she actually wants the full wedding experience with a ring, a first dance, and her dad walking her down the aisle. She gushed, “I'm happy. I've never wanted the future so bad. I've never, ever wanted the love that I have to just continue to grow.” Chris echoed her sentiments in The UK Sun's Fabulous Magazine, calling their connection “meant to cross paths.” This romance, confirmed in The Guardian back in June, is rapidly becoming a defining story in her personal narrative.Business-wise, JoJo is back in the major leagues with the announcement of her North American “JoJo Siwa Live” tour, which kicks off July 10 in Houston and sweeps through major cities like LA, New York, and Philadelphia. She promises audiences nothing short of an immersive spectacle—live performances, DJ sets, kids' songs, and the new Gaypop set. Her Instagram video hyping the tour went viral, but what turned even more heads was the “Dream Guest VIP” package. Priced at $900, this package landed JoJo in the social media hot seat. Fans both criticized and defended the concept, with some saying “you basically pay to work” for helping set up the stage. JoJo addressed the backlash at the GLAAD Media Awards with People Magazine, clarifying that only four Dream Guest VIPs are allowed per city to keep it exclusive, and each one will help decide the setlist, get memorabilia, and hang out with her backstage. She stressed it's about an intimate, unique fan experience, not a cash grab.Stepping beyond music, JoJo headlined the sold-out First Annual Dancers Against Cancer Charity Golf Tournament in Irvine, California, on September 11. The event brought together celebrities like Allison Holker and Leon “Kida” Burns, raising crucial funds for dancers fighting cancer, with JoJo herself serving on the charity's board.On social media, she poignantly marked the anniversary of coming out with a moving Instagram post that resonated with her massive LGBTQ+ fan base, according to AOL. She also addressed years of public bullying in an interview with Reality Tea—tracing criticism back to her time as a child star on Dance Moms and confronting internet hate head-on in her recent single “Raspy.”In sum, JoJo Siwa is in the midst of a transformative period both personally and professionally, with her relationship, bold business moves, and ongoing advocacy work all converging for what is likely a long-lasting impact on her public and private legacy.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOtaThis content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI

Jo Jo Siwa BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.JoJo Siwa's last few days have been a dazzling swirl of headlines and heart emojis as she balances her booming career, high-profile romance, and a few eyebrow-raising rumors. First up, the biggest biographical development has to be her whirlwind relationship with British TV host Chris Hughes. The pair met on Celebrity Big Brother UK earlier this year, and what started as on-screen chemistry quickly turned into an international love story once they left the house. JoJo has openly shared that though they are not engaged, wedding plans are already on her mind—she's picked out a baby-blue color scheme and is apparently ready to help Chris with the music playlist, but is less enthused about his love for British boy bands like The 1975. Instead, she jokes she'd rather hear NSYNC or Backstreet Boys. According to interviews in The Guardian and The Sun, the couple is considering a future together that may even include JoJo relocating permanently to the UK. She's also admitted to pestering Hughes about starting a family, openly stating that baby talk is already a recurring theme between them, though she reminds fans that these plans, while earnest, are not happening just yet.Pregnancy rumors went viral when a TikTok video showed Chris rubbing JoJo's belly, but JoJo quickly swatted those down with her trademark humor. In a “two truths and a lie” game posted on TikTok, she made light of the speculation by including “I'm pregnant” among her options, turning gossip into another chance to promote her music and engage fans. JoJo's open discussions about wanting to become a mom someday fueled the internet fire, but for now, she is focusing on her relationship and career, not immediate parenthood.Her busy summer has also included a globe-trotting schedule, recently lighting up social feeds with PDA-filled snapshots of a Royal Caribbean cruise with Chris, her parents, and her brother. If that weren't enough, JoJo delighted long-time fans with a heartfelt reunion with former Dance Moms coach Abby Lee Miller during a live Access Daily broadcast in Orlando, a nostalgic moment that had both stars reminiscing about their first impressions and the early days of JoJo's rise to fame.On the business front, JoJo remains a dominant figure among Gen Z millionaires, leveraging her TikTok and YouTube stardom into a merchandising empire. With her Infinity Heart Tour starting soon and high-profile concerts scheduled in Dublin and beyond, her relentless pace shows no sign of slowing. Social media yet again erupted during Pride Month after Chris posted a cozy photo, and JoJo responded with a message about love and acceptance, reinforcing her role as an LGBTQ+ icon and unbothered headline generator. For JoJo, it's always love, color, and just a hint of mischief—onstage and off.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOtaThis content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI

Jo Jo Siwa BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.It has been a headline-grabbing stretch for JoJo Siwa. Fresh off her summer North American tour that concluded August 9 JoJo jetted to the UK, where romance with Love Island alum Chris Hughes has dominated both gossip columns and entertainment headlines. The couple first met during Celebrity Big Brother UK in April and after just three months together they are not shying away from the spotlight or from sharing big plans. JoJo told the outlet NationalWorld she absolutely wants a family and children are definitely in her future and maybe sooner rather than later. Chris echoed those dreams in interviews with CapitalFM and Fabulous Magazine saying he envisions their wedding day and wants a “proper English wedding,” while affirming he tells JoJo he loves her every day. According to Grazia Daily JoJo admitted they pester each other about starting a family and despite how quick things seem it “feels so right.” The pair has faced considerable speculation including pregnancy rumors fueled by their TikTok games, but JoJo clarified those were just jokes addressing fans directly on social media.Their relationship is highly social-media visible and family-inclusive, with recent Instagram stories showing them loved up on Royal Caribbean's new Star of the Seas cruise with JoJo's parents Jessalynn and Tom, her brother Jayden, and his fiancée Abbie Crandall. Chris even found time for “babysitting duties” with influencer's children, sparking further commentary about Siwa's public expressions of wanting a family. On TV JoJo appeared on the UK's Loose Women August 19 calling Chris the “brightest light in my life.” She proudly shared that her mother “absolutely adores him” and her father is “best friends” with Chris. The relationship has not been without controversy or backlash, including some blowback over the rapid timeline and rumors about her transition from her previous relationship with Kath Ebbs. Kath publicly spoke about her disappointment at the split, describing her experience on TikTok and noting a sense of betrayal but ultimately stating she didn't believe JoJo acted maliciously.Professionally JoJo is maintaining momentum with international tour dates including a much-anticipated concert at Dublin Academy on September 29 according to listing sites like JamBase and Spotify. She continues to engage fans on TikTok and is set to make a splash at this Sunday's MTV Video Music Awards with expectations of a headline-catching appearance if recent trend-hitting hair and fashion choices are any indicator. Though the internet remains sharply divided on her public image and recent cover of "Bette Davis Eyes," JoJo shrugs at criticism, saying she has always been a “punching bag for the internet” and that she's just being herself. Recent coverage from Heart and TikTok shows she is pushing back at haters, describing her relationship as “undeniable” and refusing to let public opinion shape her private happiness. For JoJo, this chapter may be the most transformative yet with possible long-term consequences for her celebrity biography both personally and professionally.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOta

Jo Jo Siwa BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.JoJo Siwa has packed the past few days with controversy, spectacle, career maneuvers, and headline-grabbing stunts that only keep her at the center of pop culture's social media swirl. Just this week, at New York Fashion Week, JoJo sent shockwaves across runways and TikTok when she strutted into Christian Cowan's Spring Summer 2025 show wearing that viral furball outfit. Imagine neon green furry boots, monster faces included, and a gigantic puffy midsection that divided both fashion critics and internet fans. According to OK! Magazine, her hair and makeup matched the green accent, and what really caught attention was her sheer confidence—haters flooded the comments, but even some of her harshest critics had to admit the ensemble was iconic.On social media, JoJo doubled down by sharing the entire look with her usual unapologetic bravado, sparking a meme storm but also drawing new admiration from fans who see her boldness as “epic behavior.” As those videos ricocheted around Instagram and TikTok, they reinforced JoJo's status as both a lightning rod and a fashion risk-taker.Her globe-trotting continued with tour announcements and music promotion. JoJo jet-setted through Poland—where her track “Yesterday's Tomorrow's Today” climbed the local charts—and London, before landing back in LA and then New York. She even claimed she was in talks to represent Poland in the Eurovision Song Contest, but BBC reports that Polish organizers flatly denied any such conversations, suggesting JoJo may have pushed PR a bit too far with that one.Publicity around her Infinity Heart Tour—set for European cities including Dublin's Academy on September 29—has now kicked off on TikTok, with fans buzzing about what surprises she might bring to the stage. Meanwhile, her personal life remained up for public dissection: Earlier in the year, JoJo's relationship with Australian actor and content creator Kath Ebbs made waves, including an Instagram-official post, but according to AOL, the couple split after JoJo's stint on Celebrity Big Brother UK. Kath later shared on TikTok that the breakup happened at the show's afterparty, marking another viral heartbreak that kept gossip columns fed.Despite constant rumors—like a romantic reunion in London with Chris Hughes, which JoJo laughed off on a morning show—she insists he is just one of her favorite people. Business talk is simmering too; TikTokers hint JoJo has new ventures brewing, though official details remain tightly under wraps.Finally, her recent cover of “Bette Davis Eyes” generated mixed reviews online, with some fans loving it and others unleashing parodies, proving her knack for staying relevant isn't slowing down. Whether it's fashion, romance, or relentless reinvention, JoJo Siwa's last few days have only amplified her enduring ability to shock, divide, and entertain at the same time.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOta

Jo Jo Siwa BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.JoJo Siwa's whirlwind summer has kept her squarely in the celebrity spotlight. After igniting headlines when she entered the Celebrity Big Brother house in April, JoJo instantly landed at the center of British reality TV pop culture. Her appearance sparked a friendship with Love Island alum Chris Hughes that quickly blossomed into romance. Just hours after leaving the house, JoJo ended her prior relationship with Kath Ebbs, clarifying in interviews that her split wasn't about Chris even though fans quickly read between the lines. JoJo and Chris publicly confirmed their relationship within weeks and their chemistry was clocked by viewers and media alike. Chris has since admitted that he is “besotted” and wants to marry her, while JoJo told Heat magazine she is “craving children” and even has the name Silver Siwa picked out. She's been refreshingly candid about wanting babies soon and sees starting a family as a clear part of her future.Pregnancy rumors have been swirling faster than her trademark ponytail after a viral TikTok showed Chris affectionately rubbing JoJo's belly. JoJo decided to playfully address the speculation, posting a Two Truths and a Lie video and including “I'm pregnant” as one of the options, effectively shutting down the story with a wink according to People. JoJo has long been open about wanting to be a mom, dating back to her pre-teen years, but for now the internet had to settle for a new single promoted within the video.As for career moves, buzz is building around a rumored reality show featuring JoJo and Chris. Multiple outlets including PA Media and Echo Live report that talks are underway, with Chris confirming “lots of discussions” have happened though nothing official has been announced. He said that the pair would “be very happy and open to filming,” suggesting an announcement could be imminent and fans—dubbed "CoJo"—are eagerly awaiting the next chapter. The pair have been attracting crowds at public events like National Racehorse Week, with the “CoJo” group name taking root among supporters.JoJo's public appearances are also making noise: her red carpet moments at the iHeartRadio Music Awards drew major attention on social media, with TikTok and Instagram lighting up with posts documenting her looks and interactions. She's become a fixture on 2025's award show circuit and her posts with Kath Ebbs at past events like GLAAD and Hadestown's premiere remain fan favorites, even as her relationship status shifted.Across TikTok, JoJo continues to trend with fans referencing her new business ventures and viral moments, while tongue-in-cheek posts about her “prime” and media appearances rack up hundreds of thousands of likes and views. Her every move, from family plans to career ambitions and social escapades, dominate headlines—proof that JoJo Siwa's star power is only growing stronger, and her story remains one of the most talked-about in entertainment right now.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOta

Jo Jo Siwa BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.JoJo Siwa has been on a relentless professional and personal upswing lately, making headlines with nearly every move. Just days ago, she closed out her North American tour—a marathon of shows that drew crowds in cities from Houston to LA, blending live performances, a DJ set, and what she called an “immersive party” atmosphere. This tour was not only a success with audiences—her social media is flooded with fan footage and glowing reviews—but also had a philanthropic angle, with one dollar from every ticket going to Dancers Against Cancer, a charity where JoJo serves on the board, according to People.On the personal front, her relationship with Chris Hughes continues to captivate fans and outlets alike. JoJo, 22, and Chris, a former Love Island contestant, first connected this spring while competing on Celebrity Big Brother UK. Since confirming their romance in June after much fan speculation, their relationship has only become more public and, by JoJo's own words, deeply significant. She recently told Loose Women that Chris is “the brightest light in my life, he's the thing that makes me the happiest.” The relationship has apparently won over even her inner circle: her mom "absolutely adores him," her dad and Chris are now "best friends," and her brother Jayden has asked Chris to be a groomsman at his upcoming wedding, as reported by AOL and Reality Tea.There's further buzz about the couple possibly landing their own reality show, with the Sun and TVZoneUK among outlets claiming cameras are “set to follow JoJo Siwa and Chris Hughes' whirlwind romance.” While neither star has officially signed on, reputable sources say the idea is on the table, feeding speculation of a Siwa-Hughes power couple media expansion.JoJo's musical evolution is generating just as much talk. Her recent cover of “Bette Davis Eyes” in July generated fierce debate online, prompting JoJo to address criticism about her “raspy” voice and her new look, described by some as a major departure from her iconic bow-wearing persona. She told Loose Women she's been a target for internet commenters her whole life and is unbothered, reinforcing her vision for “JoJo 2.0”—a more mature, versatile pop star. According to Zoombangla and Wikipedia, this rebrand includes new music with edgier pop (“Karma”), broader acting ambitions, and exploring new business ventures beyond her lucrative merchandise empire.On social media, her recent announcements have racked up millions of views, especially clips teasing her next European tour dates and candid relationship updates. And with constant sightings popping up—from performing at honky tonks to posts from herself and friends—JoJo is weaving her personal growth and career reinvention seamlessly in public view. If rumors of a prime-time reality show pan out, it could mark another turning point in JoJo's evolution from Nickelodeon prodigy to multi-hyphenate superstar with real adult mainstream clout. Fans and experts alike are watching closely—because every week JoJo Siwa manages to make news simply by being JoJo.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOta

Jo Jo Siwa BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.There has been plenty happening for JoJo Siwa these past few days and her name is everywhere, both for her newly public romantic life and her ever-evolving celebrity brand. Making headlines across entertainment news, JoJo, now 22, has been very open about her relationship with former Love Island UK star Chris Hughes. During a recent appearance on the UK's Loose Women, JoJo gushed that Chris is “the brightest light” in her life and that her family has never loved someone she's dated this much. Chris has even been asked to be a groomsman in her brother's upcoming wedding. The two originally connected as housemates on Celebrity Big Brother UK in April and their rapport moved quickly from platonic to romantic over the summer following JoJo's split from Kath Ebbs. Since going public, both have unabashedly shared loved-up moments on Instagram, including cozy vacation shots from a Royal Caribbean “exclusive first look” sailing. Chris told Fabulous Magazine that he thinks their meeting was “serendipity” and confessed he has already envisioned wedding scenarios with JoJo, describing their relationship as a “natural high.” While there's ongoing fan and tabloid speculation about possible engagement or pregnancy, neither JoJo nor Chris has confirmed anything beyond their current happiness and frequent family time.On the career front, JoJo recently wrapped her North American tour on August 9 and immediately faced some backlash for her $900 VIP Dream Guest package. At the GLAAD Media Awards, she responded, explaining the premium price tag is for a true behind-the-scenes day with her, not just a cash grab, and that these slots are extremely limited—just four in each city. A portion of every ticket is donated to Dancers Against Cancer, underscoring that she wants the experience to be both meaningful and charitable. The debate over celebrity VIP pricing continues on social media, but JoJo stands by her intent to create something special for her most hardcore fans.Musically, JoJo continues to experiment with her style and image, most recently releasing the music video for “Choose Ur Fighter” on January 1. The video, set in a video-game-inspired arena, shows her battling six fictional exes at once and was delayed several months due to issues she has not publicly detailed, which only fueled anticipation and conversation online. She's also been vocal about internet criticisms of her new look and her cover of “Bette Davis Eyes,” brushing off trend cycles and emphasizing her commitment to creative reinvention. Every move she makes draws chatter—whether she's turning heads on the iHeart Awards red carpet with a bold look, vacationing with family and Chris, or breaking her silence about controversies—proving JoJo Siwa is intent on keeping all eyes, and headlines, on her.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOta

In Episode 131, astrologers Kristina Martin and Tara Redfield dive into the charts of newly coupled reality stars-turned-celebrities JoJo Siwa and Christopher Hughes.   First, we explore JoJo's chart, highlighting her competitive and impulsive Aries Rising, with Mars in Aquarius forming a supportive sextile—a well-placed chart ruler that fuels her success when she embraces her most authentic, unique self. Her burdened Capricorn Moon in the 10th reveals not only the disciplined influence of her "dance mom" persona but also the weight of external expectations. Meanwhile, her Taurus Sun in the 2nd house underscores how deeply her personal identity ties into her financial brand.   Next, we examine Chris's chart, where a hardworking Capricorn Sun reflects maturity beyond his years, while a bold Mercury and Moon in Sagittarius gift him with an expansive, unfiltered sense of self. A Venus-Saturn conjunction in Aquarius suggests that friendship and structure are equally vital in his relationships.   When comparing their synastry, their Suns face challenging aspects...a Saturn opposition hinting at struggles with their age gap or conflicting ambitions, and a Pluto opposition pointing to potential power dynamic problems. But the true standout? An exact Venus-Mars conjunction in Aquarius, proving their friendship created the ideal foundation for love. Could this aspect smooth over their tougher alignments?

JoJo Siwa keeps making headlines. Last time it was because of her showmance with her “Celebrity Big Brother UK” castmate, Chris Hughes. This time it's because of her version of the Kim Carnes classic, “Bette Davis Eyes.” As per usual, JoJo leans into the autotune big time, and she's getting roasted for it. Then we've got all the drama between former flames Zach Bryan and Brianna “Chickenfry” LaPaglia. They had a messy breakup after Zach let Brianna (and the rest of the world) know they were over on Instagram! Looks like Zach's stirring up more sh*t over their relationship, and Chickenfry's clapping back - with receipts. And finally, we'll fill you in on everything we know about Pete Davidson's baby announcement. Looks like Petey-boy's BDE is about to stand for Big Dad Energy.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

After the 2008 financial crisis, and especially after the COVID pandemic of 2020, an increasing number of Americans are questioning the wisdom of unregulated markets and envisioning a more active role for the state. Scholars have coined a panoply of neologisms to capture this view of the political economy, including political scientist Kenneth Vogel's “marketcraft.” The term indicates that the state not only lays the foundation for markets through the protection of the rule of law and property rights, but it also shapes market economies through policy interventions and regulatory institutions like the Federal Trade Commission.Chris Hughes' new book, “Marketcrafters: The 100-Year Struggle to Shape the American Economy,” traces how governments led by both major parties have worked with the private sector since the country's founding to intentionally and strategically shape markets. The narrative reveals how Adam Smith's proverbial “invisible” hand has always been rather quite visible.Hughes is a co-founder of Facebook who left the company in 2007 to work for former President Barack Obama and is now completing his PhD at the University of Pennsylvania's Wharton School. Hughes joins Bethany and Luigi to discuss the government's historical role, both in success and failure, of marketcrafting to rebalance economic power and create fairer and more efficient markets. Their journey takes us from the creation of the Federal Reserve in 1913 in response to a series of banking failures to recent mass investment in the semiconductor industry. Together, they discuss how to stop marketcrafting from becoming a victim of the political process, how it is operationalized differently in times of normalcy versus times of crisis, and how it must navigate the limits of individual and institutional power. Finally, they also discuss whether it is truly possible to craft markets in advance or only to correct market flaws after a crisis, with Hughes' own prior stomping grounds at Facebook as their case study.Read an excerpt of the book on ProMarket here.

We're filling you in on everything that's been happening and all the ways we'll be back in your podcast feels and socials once again.  ⚡Sabrina Carpenter announced her new album Man's Best Friend to be released just 359 days after Short and Sweet, but the bigger issue is the artwork itself for Man's Best Friend which has stirred much conversation about whether it's part of feminism or if it perpetuates the male gaze. ⚡Taylor Swift now owns all of her masters! We were expecting drama, we were expecting intrigue, but really, she just did something only one of the richest women in the world can do, and that's all there is to it. Paul McCartney doesn't even own his masters; fully owning your masters is a pretty abnormal feat, as song ownership is the main way labels recoup their money. ⚡   We're experiencing what the internet hivemind is referring to as a fascism indicator, with how many girlies who are known to exist under the LGBTQ+ umbrella are debuting boyfriends (and at the start of Pride Month!)

Tears for Fears is a duo formed in 1981 in Bath, England by Roland Orzabal and Curt Smith. They've sold over 30 million albums, starting with their first, The Hurting, which went to number one in the UK. But it was their second album, Songs from the Big Chair, that made them international stars. It came out in 1985, and had huge singles like “Shout” and "Head Over Heels.” But their biggest hit is “Everybody Wants to Rule the World.” It won Best Single at the BRIT Awards in 1986, and it's been streamed over 2 billion times. So I talked to the two of them about how they, along with their producer Chris Hughes and keyboard player Ian Stanley, made a song that would help define the sound of the 80s.For more, visit songexploder.net/tears-for-fears.

It looks like reality TV is getting very real! After wrapping up her stint on “Celebrity Big Brother UK,” JoJo Siwa's making all kinds of headlines. JoJo - who's been openly gay for a while - had an “aha” moment in front of CBBUK cameras when she realized she now identifies as queer. Great for JoJo. Not so great for JoJo's partner Kath Ebb - who claims JoJo dumped them the night of the CBBUK wrap party! And now there's all kinds of speculation that things are getting hot and heavy between the “Karma” singer and fellow “Big Brother” castmate, Chris Hughes. Next up - what the hell happened during Bill Belichick's “CBS Sunday Morning” interview? We'll get you caught up on that plus what people are saying about his MUCH younger girlfriend? And finally, we've got the latest on Katy Perry. People have been coming down hard on her since her Blue Origin Uber trip to space. And now, for the first time, Katy's opening up about the backlash.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
