In the music video for her latest original song “Sidelines,” singer and songwriter Phoebe Bridgers lets emotions get messy. The video pulls footage from Conversations With Friends , the Hulu series adapted from Sally Rooney’s novel of the same name, to tease out a web of complicated relationships. “Watched the world from the sidelines / Had nothing to prove,” she croons over a microphone on the song crafted for the series. “Til you came into my life / Gave me something to lose.” Conversations With Friends follows 21-year-old Dublin university student Frances (Alison Oliver) as she explores an unconventional relationship with her former girlfriend and current best friend Bobbi (Sasha Lane), and a curious married couple made up of Nick (Joe Alwyn) and Melissa (Jemima Kirke).

Taylor Swift received a warm welcome to New York University on Wednesday when she accepted an honorary Doctor of Fine Arts, honoris causa, from the institution. Swift attended the 2022 all-school commencement ceremony at Yankee Stadium and delivered a rousing speech for this year’s graduates.

Since releasing Red (Taylor’s Version) — her re-recorded take on her lauded fourth album — Swift has largely laid low. She has yet to confirm which of her albums she’ll be re-recording next, though many have suspected that it will be 1989 or … [Read more...] about Read Taylor Swift’s Inspiring Speech for NYU’s Class of ’22
