PinkPantheress Previews New Mixtape With Single ‘Tonight'
PinkPantheress
British singer PinkPantheress is gearing up for the release of her next mixtape with the new single 'Tonight.' The song is animated by a sample of Panic! at the Disco's 2008 song 'Do You Know What I'm Seeing?", a creative choice that she alluded to back in 2021.
"The beat might be drum 'n' bass, but the writing style might be something you'd hear in a hyperpop song, or early '00s Paramore or Panic! at the Disco,' she told Crack magazine at the time of her sonic curation process. 'I'm picking my favorite musical attributes from certain genres, bands, and artists, and combining them.'
'I leave my bedroom with my posters of you up / I do this all because you're my superstar / I look at you and I wonder why its so complicated / You're talking out to a crowd of people who thought you hated / Your friends will tell me you're too scared of coming up / But tonight, why is it all emotional to me?' she sings on the new track. 'You want sex with me / Come talk to me / Talk later, that's why I'm goin' tonight / You're hot, on fire, that's why I'm callin' tonight / Talk later, that's why I'm goin' tonight / You're sex on fire, that's why I like goin' tonight.'
Carving her own musical lane in an industry so determined to squeeze her into a box has been a challenge, but PinkPantheress isn't one to let outside voices get to her.
'A lot of my career has been people telling me their perception of me rather than me saying who I am,' she told Mixmag this week. 'Being a 'popstar' or being in the public eye can definitely make you lose yourself. I am somebody who knows myself down to the bone but I'm telling you, being a singer makes it so easy to think about what people think or want to hear and it makes you lose elements of your beginnings.'
PinkPantheress' next project is out May 9.

Queen Elizabeth and Kate Middleton Both Broke This Royal Wedding Custom in Favor of a Beloved American Tradition
For her wedding, Queen Elizabeth made her sister, Princess Margaret, one of her bridesmaids, breaking with royal protocol that stated only children should be part of the wedding party. Decades later, Kate Middleton made the same decision, asking her sister, Pippa, to be her maid of honor. By doing so, both royals embraced the common American tradition of making close friends and family members part of your wedding Prince William and Kate Middleton adhered to a number of royal wedding traditions before, during, and after their nuptials on April 29, 2011, including issuing a formal engagement announcement, incorporating seasonal flowers, and having a midday ceremony followed by a luncheon, there was one custom that they decided to break. Typically, at such an occasion, only children are allowed to be in the wedding party, as they serve to represent joy and innocence on the big day. However, for her ceremony, Kate opted to forgo this approach, wanting to include her sister, Pippa, in her wedding party as her maid of honor. And it appears that the princess may not have been the only royal bride to do so. During Queen Elizabeth's royal wedding to Prince Philip she also elected to break with this time-honored tradition by including her sister, Princess Margaret, as a bridesmaid in her wedding party. While it's unclear what specific duties Margaret had on the day of the nuptials, it's evident that she supported her sister over the course of the day. After Elizabeth and Philip said "I do" at Westminster Abbey, they headed to the balcony of Buckingham Palace to greet members of the public. In her role both as a member of the royal family and as a bridesmaid, Margaret stood next to her sister as the newlyweds waved to eager onlookers. At Kate's nuptials in 2011, Pippa was a noticeable presence, helping manage the younger members of the wedding party—and assisting her older sister with her nine-foot train as she entered the church. However, even though the bride may embraced an American tradition by asking her sibling to be her maid of honor, she still honored other British customs, particularly when it came to the outfits of the bridal party. While it's considered a faux pas at American weddings to don anything in a white hue, the British royal custom is just the opposite, as the bridesmaids are expected to wear the neutral color. In her role, Pippa stayed true to the tradition, opting for an ivory satin-based crepe gown that was designed by Sarah Burton at Alexander McQueen. "Culturally speaking white is a symbol of purity, cleanliness, immaculacy and perfection, which is why it's the natural colour choice for bridal dresses, doctors' coats and seafarers," Gabi Winters, a color expert, told Hello!. Related: Queen Elizabeth Once Made a Major Wedding Guest Etiquette Mistake—Here's How to Avoid the Same Faux Pas It's a tradition that many royal brides have embraced—from Queen Elizabeth in 1923 and Princess Diana in 1981 to Kate Middleton in 2011 and Meghan Markle in 2018. However, even though the custom stipulates that the bridesmaids should wear white gowns, some members of the British royal family have put a bit of a modern twist on it, opting to add a hint of color to the ensemble. For example, both Diana and Kate decided to add sashes with a hint of color to the dresses. Up Next: Is It Ever Acceptable to Wear White to a Wedding? Read the original article on Brides

Exclusive: Sophie Turner on Her Travel Style: ‘I Look Like Hannibal Lecter on the Plane'
Sophie Turner's breakout role as Sansa Stark on the hit fantasy series Game of Thrones made the British actress a household name. And while the HBO show is still binge-worthy years after its finale, Turner is watching something a little lighter when she's in flight. 'If I'm not sleeping, any Real Housewives —I'm binging the whole way. You have to watch it!' she said, listing the Salt Lake City franchise as her favorite, though she's also partial to Potomac and Beverly Hills. Turner sat down with Travel + Leisure to talk about her other travel essentials (beyond the Real Housewives ), her jet lag hacks, and her favorite filming location. Though the Emmy-winning Game of Thrones ended in 2019 after eight globe-trotting seasons, Turner's love of shooting in beautiful, far-flung locations has endured. She has gone on to star in many films, including "X-Men: Dark Phoenix" (2019) and "The Dreadful" (2024), requiring her to travel all over the world. For Turner, one location still stands out: Iceland (one of many notable Game of Thrones filming locations). 'I just found Iceland absolutely astonishingly beautiful, like the landscape with northern lights. It's also that I shot there in the summer when there's something like 22 hours of light, and it was a very bizarre experience. It was just beautiful.' As for other dream filming locations, she would love to work on something in Norway. 'I've never been to Norway, and I would just love to go there. I just think it looks beautiful.' The Oxararfoss Trail and Almannagjá gorge in Iceland, which was used as a shooting location in season 4 of Game of Thrones. mariiakamenska/Getty Images Window or aisle? Window! Even though I go to sleep immediately, I need something to rest my head on, if it's not a recliner. Go-to plane uniform? It doesn't matter, just comfy. Hoodie and sweatpants. There is a brand that I've been wearing recently called Akimbo Club. What's an item you can't travel without? Compression socks. Even when you're not pregnant, they really do help. Oh, sometimes I bring face masks, like chin masks and lip masks. I look like Hannibal Lecter on the plane, but whatever. Ideal co-star to travel with? That would probably be the entire X-Men cast [which includes James McAvoy, Michael Fassbender, Jennifer Lawrence, and Nicholas Hoult]. We just had the best time flying all over the world on press tours. We had too much fun. Trip you want to take? I've been so lucky to travel to so many places, but I haven't ever gone to New Zealand, and I would love to go there. So, how does she survive an intense travel schedule often packed with long flights? Her moisturizer ("my Weleda Skin Food") and a dip in the closest body of water, she told T+L. 'Whether it's a bath, a pool, an ice bath, whatever it may be. I think it just calms my system down. It also really helps me with jet lag as well. I'm a Pisces, so I just need to be in water. It's like a rejuvenation. It feeds my soul.' For hotel pools, she recommends the Corinthia Hotel in London, but she also loves swimming out in the open, like when she went to Egypt last year and hopped into her new favorite body of water. 'We were on the River Nile, and we all jumped off the boat [into the river], and I think that was probably my favorite.' Another travel must for Turner? Immediately ordering room service when she checks into her hotel room. 'Listen, my go-to order will always be spaghetti with butter and cheese. Kids food, man, it's the best!' the mother of two said with a laugh. Though she orders off the children's menu, she does the very adult thing of immediately unpacking after her room service meal—both routines help with a sense of normalcy. Her final travel staple? A Hugo spritz. 'It absolutely is the spirit of travel,' Turner said. She is such a fan of the cocktail that she has partnered with St-Germain for the second year in a row on a new campaign called 'Sip Into Something Fresher.' 'I can have it anywhere, any time of day. It could be morning, evening, whatever. There's no bounds on where I drink it,' she said, noting she would love airlines to start making this drink part of their cocktail programs. Sophie with a St-Germain Hugo Spritz for their Sip Into Something Fresher campaign. The campaign touts the St-Germain Hugo spritz as the official cocktail of summer, and the brand will have activations in St. Tropez and Cannes. The South of France holds a special place in Turner's heart. 'I've spent a lot of time there. Actually, I got married there [to ex-husband Joe Jonas]. I've got a lot of great memories there, and I really love it. I love the landscape, I love the people, I love the food, I love the drink. I just think it's such a romantic, beautiful, idyllic place.'
