Sofia Coppola's Daughter Romy Mars, 18, Waxes Poetic on the Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous in Luxe New Music Video
Romy Mars, the daughter of Sofia Coppola and Thomas Mars, released a music video for her song "A-Lister"
The music video features her swimming in a pool, getting snapped by paparazzi and possibly even eloping with a famous actor
Romy previously went viral when she was 16 for a TikTok video she filmedAs a member of the Coppola family, Romy Mars was born into movie royalty — meaning she knows full well the true meaning of 'A-lister.'
Romy, the 18-year-old daughter of Sofia Coppola and her husband, Phoenix rocker Thomas Mars, released a new music video for her single 'A-Lister,' a pop song she co-wrote that features tongue-in-cheek commentary on the surface-level lifestyles of the rich and famous.
'I love this golden sunny West Coast/Sceney plastic world/I miss being a real girl, sure/But I'm not a real girl anymore,' she sings on the song.
Romy, who was raised in New York City, also sings about meeting and dating an actor, posting pictures from a private jet and dyeing her hair until she's a 'blonde bore.'
'One day I'll be bored/With everything that I've got/Get out of fancy clothes/Right after they get the shot/Recreate scenes from Titanic on a flying bridge yacht/Just to feel something real,' she sings.
In the music video, she shows off life in the lap of luxury, from swimming in a pool, getting snapped by paparazzi, getting styled by a team of three and possibly even eloping with a famous actor.
Romy first launched her music career in May 2024 with the release of the singles 'Stuck Up' and 'From a Distance.'
'So proud of Romy's first 2 songs out today!' her Oscar-winning mom wrote on Instagram at the time.
Romy — who has a 15-year-old sister, Cosima — previously went viral when she was 16 after she revealed in a TikTok video that she'd been grounded for trying to charter a helicopter from New York to Maryland on her dad's credit card to have dinner with a friend from camp.
In the video, the singer also shared that she decided to film the TikTok — which showed her casually making a vodka pasta sauce — because she was "already grounded" and her parents' "biggest rule is I'm not allowed to have any public social media accounts."
"Here's why," she explained while holding up a Grammy award with a sarcastic smile. "Because they don't want me to be a nepotism kid, but TikTok is not gonna make me famous, so it doesn't really matter.'
In 2024, Romy had a small role in Megalopolis, directed by her grandfather, Francis Ford Coppola.

You can now pre-order Pokémon Legends: Z-A for the Switch and Switch 2
Pokémon Legends: Z-A, the much-awaited follow-up to 2022's Pokémon Legends: Arceus, is now available for pre-order. You can get the digital version for the old Switch for $60 or for the new Switch 2 for $70 from Nintendo's website. In case you have no plans to get the Switch 2 anytime soon and you do get the game for the first Switch console, you can purchase an upgrade pack for $10 to get access to better graphics and higher frame rate for Nintendo's new system later on. Pre-ordering lets you pre-load the game so you can play it as soon as it becomes available on October 16. The action role-playing game is not just a follow-up to Arceus, but also a sequel to Pokémon X and Y. It's set in Lumiose City, introduced in X and Y over a decade ago, and features three available starters: Chikorita and Totodile from Gold and Silver, as well as Tepig from Black and White. Its gameplay is a mix of the real-time capture mechanics on Arceus and the old-school turn-based gameplay of traditional Pokémon titles. The game is also bringing back X and Y's Mega Evolution mechanic, which can temporarily transform a Pokémon into a much stronger monster, boosting its power and sometimes even changing its type. The physical version of Pokémon Legends: Z-A is now also available for pre-order from retailers like Walmart (Switch, Switch 2) and Best Buy (Switch, Switch 2.). It's not clear if pre-ordering the game will get you any bonuses, but the Walmart listing URLs hint at an "exclusive gift with purchase."

Mother Mother refuse to 'pander to the TikTok era' after going viral
Mother Mother will never "pander to the TikTok era" with their songwriting. The Canadian rockers - who have exceeded nine billion streams globally - found themselves going viral on the video-sharing platform in 2020, after their 2008 song Hayloft was used in edits, cosplay, and creative transitions. As a result, the group dropped Hayloft II, which also became a hit. Frontman Ryan Guldemond subsequently noticed on Reddit that some people were critcising them for going after commercial success with their music - but he insists that couldn't be farther from the truth. He told "I was reading people saying, 'Oh, they pander to the TikTok era with their new writing.' ADVERTISEMENT And it's like, Huh? I don't think that's true. If anything, it's the opposite, like, yeah, you know, the TikTok thing came along and made a bunch of songs that were really unviable, commercially famous, and that was to us that sent a message like, Oh, just be yourself. Like, just write from the heart and follow your whims. And that's the best thing you can do, is to be just totally authentic. And if that means you're writing kind of weird, unconventional songs, then so be it." The 'Finger' singer insists the whole TikTok viral experience taught them to "reject writing strategically for anything". He continued: "And so I've sort of taken that message and really ran with it, because I agree. I think the best thing anybody can do, whether you're writing a song or just, I don't know, whatever in life, just to be who you are. So I'm grateful for the TikTok thing, for sending that message, and if anything, yeah, like I said, it has made us reject writing strategically for anything." Mother Mother returned on June 6 with their new album 'Nostalgia', comprised of songs old and new to mark their 20th anniversary. Stream 'Nostalgia' now on all major streaming platforms.
