Almost a month after Harry Styles headlined Coachella for the first time, the Grammy winner’s highly anticipated follow-up to 2019’s Fine Line drops Friday, May 20. “To me, it’s everything that I’ve wanted to make, really, in like a lot of ways” Styles told Zane Lowe in their recent Apple Music interview . In the interview, Styles explains he wrote and recorded his third album over multiple sessions and locations, including Los Angeles and England. “Throughout the album, Styles’ singing is as conversational as his lyrics, making romance feel like a hopeful, at times fragile, dialogue between equals,” Rolling Stone ‘s Jon Dolan writes in our Harry’s House album review . “It makes sense that Harry’s House is coming out just as summer bar-patio season is kicking into full swing. … [Read more...] about ‘Harry’s House:’ Where to Buy Every Edition of Harry Styles’ New Album Online

Eric Clapton , who last summer declared that he reserved the right to cancel performances at venues where audience members were required to show proof of Covid vaccination, has indeed canceled two shows, but for another reason: Clapton just tested positive for the coronavirus. The announcement of the show cancelations in Zurich and Milan was made on Clapton’s official Facebook page last night. “Eric Clapton is unfortunately suffering from Covid having tested positive shortly after the second concert at the Royal Albert Hall,” the post reads.  He has been told by his medical advisors that if he were to resume traveling and performing too soon, it could substantially delay his full recovery. Eric is also anxious to avoid passing on any infection to any of his band, crew, Promoters, their staff and of course the fans.” The performance in Zurich was scheduled for today, May 17, with Milan initially set for May 18. Clapton’s team says the guitarist hopes to resume the … [Read more...] about Eric Clapton Has Covid, Cancels Shows; Guitarist Had Denounced Vaccine Protocols

EXCLUSIVE : Patricia Velasquez ( The Mummy ), Gian Franco Rodriguez ( Halston ), Rumer Willis ( Sorority Row ), Billy Budinich ( Frank and Penelope ) and newcomer Isabella Feliciana will star in the social impact film Maya from director Julia Verdin ( Angie: Lost Girls ), which has entered production in Los Angeles. The film written by Verdin looks to raise awareness on key issues including child trafficking, domestic violence, alcoholism and child abuse. It’s inspired by true events and will show how predators use social media to lure vulnerable teens into their lair. When Maya (Feliciana) is six years old, her father abandons her and her mother Camila. This, of course, has a lasting effect on them both. Camila resorts to seeking comfort in alcohol and an abusive boyfriend, with Maya suffers from feeling unlovable. No longer feeling safe in her own home, Maya searches for comfort outside of her family—finding it in Ray (Budinich), an edgy, yet charming young … [Read more...] about Patricia Velasquez, Rumer Willis & More Set For Social Impact Film ‘Maya’ From Director Julia Verdin

Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer called on Rupert Murdoch and other top executives of Fox Corp. and Fox News to stop the “reckless amplification” of the “great replacement theory” by some of the news channel’s hosts. The letter came following the deadly shooting rampage in Buffalo, NY, over the weekend, in which 10 people were killed. The alleged shooter had, according to a manifesto posted online, been an adherent of the “replacement theory,” or the belief that elites are trying to replace native-born Americans with non-white immigrants for political gain. “For years, these types of beliefs have existed at the fringes of American life,” Schumer wrote in the letter. “However, this pernicious theory, which has no basis in fact, has been injected into the mainstream thanks in large part to a dangerous level of amplification by your network and its anchors.” Schumer did not mention Tucker Carlson in the text of the letter, but cc’d him. On Monday, Schumer … [Read more...] about Chuck Schumer Sends Letter To Rupert Murdoch Calling For End To Amplification Of “Great Replacement Theory”

Originally planned to open the Sundance Film Festival earlier this year before the worsening Covid situation forced the festival to again go virtual, Oscar-winning writer-director Michel Hazanavicius made the right decision in insisting his comedy Final Cut (Coupez!), about the making of a low-budget bad zombie movie, should be presented with a full house in a theatre, thankfully not to be watched on your computer at a prestigious film festival. In holding out for the real thing he scored big as it was chosen as the opening-night out-of-competition film of the 75th Cannes Film Festival. It seems entirely appropriate that a movie all about the love of making movies should signal the full return of a fest devoted to all things cinema over the course of its 75 years. And for this director, whose 2011 black-and-white silent film The Artist was also a love letter to movies, and also premiered here on its way to Best Picture and Best Director Oscars, this seems fated to be. … [Read more...] about ‘Final Cut’ Cannes Opening-Night Film Review: Michel Hazanavicius’ Very Good Comedy About Making A Very Bad Zombie Flick

Opinions expressed are solely those of the author and do not reflect the views of Rolling Stone editors or publishers. A content creator recently asked me for advice and tips on how to utilize social media to advance his career. So, I started with the basic questions that everyone should start with: Who are you and what do you want to say? Online, that is. These are basic but important questions to ask because everything and anything you post online could follow you — and even 10 years from now might still be searchable. Some companies use what is called a Q value to establish general audience sentiment, a score that includes how many followers you have, how engaged your audience is and if there is a general appeal from said audience. These factors are compiled and totaled into one score. You are a brand. Your content is an extension of yourself — and social media is where you need to be building your brand. The first step my content creator colleague needed to take was to … [Read more...] about Social Media Tips to Move Your Career and Project Forward

Congress held its first hearing on UFOs in over 50 years on Tuesday, and it turns out there have been a lot more reported UFO — or UAP, unidentified aerial phenomenon — sightings than previously believed. A Navy intelligence official told lawmakers that the military’s database on reported sightings of UAPs now contains about 400 incidents, 250 more than the 143 included in a report released last year . Despite the uptick in reported incidents, Bray said the military has yet to find evidence of anything “nonterrestrial in origin.” One reason for the increase is that people are now describing encounters that they didn’t report at the time, said Scott Bray, deputy director of Naval intelligence. The military has also been working to remove the stigma associated with reporting UAPs, and making it easier to do so. “Navy and air force crews now have step-by-step procedures for reporting UAPs on their kneeboard, in the cockpit,” Bray added, according to NPR . Bray also cited … [Read more...] about Military List of UFO Sightings Has More Than Doubled in the Past Year, Navy Official Says at Hearing
