IS TAYLOR SWIFT COLLABORATING WITH DRAKE ON NEW ALBUM? – (05/10/2019)
Do Taylor Swift and Drake have a collaboration in the works?
Swift the latest issue of Entertainment Weekly. In the cover photo, she wears a denim jacket covered in pins with references to several artists including Selena Gomez, Troye Sivan, Dixie Chicks, and Drake. A photo of the rapper from his “Hotline Bling” video appears on a button, which sits alongside another pin that says “Track 5.”
Swift also praised Drake in the magazine. “I love his one-liners,” she said before quoting “Summer Games” and “Nonstop.” “Like ‘You say I led you on / But you followed me.’ Or ‘This a Rollie, not a stopwatch / It don’t ever stop.’”
On her jacket, there are also images of the cast of Friends and Game of Thrones, Mr. Rogers, singer Faith Hill, the words “Awesome” and “Calm,” Sandra Oh and Ellen Pompeo from Grey’s Anatomy, the musical Cats, and more.
Fans are now convinced that the buttons indicate that the album will include a collaboration with Drake, and the song may have something to do with Game of Thrones.
“Wanted to rep as many things/people I love on the jacket and more in the interview,” tweeted Swift.
In the story, Taylor says her upcoming album is more “vulnerable,” adding, “It’s much more of a singer-songwriter, personal journey than the last one.”
“I’m trying to convey an emotional spectrum,” she adds. “I definitely don’t wanna have too much of one thing…. You get some joyful songs and you get the bops, as they say.”
There are also “really, really, really, really sad songs,” but, Taylor points out, “not enough to where you need to worry about me.”
Taylor also reveals that her upcoming seventh album will include more songs than any of her previous releases.
As for the shift from the darker Reputation era to her new pastel-colored one, Taylor credits her fans. While she believed that everyone had bought into the bad press surrounding her that time, “I would look out into the audience and I’d see these amazing, thoughtful, caring, wonderful, empathetic people,” she says. “I see that [the fans] actually see me as a flesh-and-blood human being,” Taylor explains. “That – as contrived as it may sound – changed [me] completely, assigning humanity to my life.”
SHAWN MENDES BREAKS THE INTERNET WITH LATEST CALVIN KLEIN PICS – (05/10/2019)
Shawn Mendes has shared shots from his steamy Calvin Klein underwear ad campaign, including a picture of the singer showing off his rock hard abs in white boxer briefs and little else.
In the video, Shawn stands alone on a stage, in the middle of what looks like huge jewelry box set on its edge. The camera zooms in and reveals he’s wearing nothing but a pair of white boxer briefs. As he poses, you hear him say in a voiceover: “Iconically Calvin Klein.”
In the photos, Shawn poses in his boxer briefs, in jeans and a denim jacket, and in a pulled-up t-shirt, once again showing off his abs.
The only Calvin Klein ad in which he’s clothed is called “Shawn Mendes Speaks His Truth #MYCALVINS.” In that one, Shawn walks along a reservoir, while a large wall in the background flashes home movies of himself as a kid.
Shawn’s celebrity friends responded to his postings in a variety of ways: Teddy Geiger simply wrote, “Oh my.” Demi Lovato left fire emojis, Ryan Tedder wrote, “That’s the last time loan u my Calvins,” and John Mayer joked, “I would have loved to comment on this, but my Fruit of the Loom contract prevents me from doing so.” Even Fruit of the Loom joined in on the fun, replying: “@JohnMayer + Fruit of the Loom – A partnership in service of helping bodies feel like wonderlands.”
One of the fans wrote, “Every girl is pregnant all of a sudden.” Another added, “…with twins.” And a guy fan noted, “I’m pregnant and I don’t even have a uterus.”
JONAS BROTHERS’ DOC ‘CHASING HAPPINESS’ TO PREMIERE JUNE 4TH – (05/10/2019)
The Jonas Brothers’ new documentary has an official title and release date.
The film, Chasing Happiness, will hit Amazon Prime Video on June 4th. In a promo clip for the doc, Nick, Joe and Kevin all vie for Alexa’s affections before ultimately telling her to set a reminder for the film’s release date.
Amazon shared plans for the documentary in March. The film will follow the siblings as they reunite for their Happiness Begins tour in support of the album of the same name. The album is the group’s first in 10 years.
“Chasing Happiness is a story of brotherhood,” reads the doc’s description. “From humble roots as pastor’s sons in New Jersey, through their meteoric rise to fame, the Jonas Brothers’ bond was unshakeable – until a surprising and painful breakup led Joe, Kevin and Nick down very different paths.”
The description continues, “With deeply personal interviews, previously unreleased footage and exclusive music, this is the Jonas Brothers as never seen before.”
The JoBros, who will be the musical guests on this weekend’s Saturday Night Live, are on a roll since announcing their comeback earlier this year, including scoring their first No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart with “Sucker.”
