Demi Lovato's Emotional And Honest Single Mounts A Surprising Return

Demi Lovato's Emotional And Honest Single Mounts A Surprising Return

Forbes14-05-2025
Demi Lovato is cooking up something big. The superstar singer took to social media recently to tease new music. Although it's not yet clear what form it will take, what it will sound like, or when fans will get to hear it, people seem genuinely excited for what she's calling her next 'era.' Those who love the singer's voice have returned to one of her most heartfelt tracks, turning it into a bestseller all over again in the United Kingdom more than half a decade after it was first released.
This frame, 'Anyone' reenters a pair of charts across the Atlantic. The tune returns to the Official Singles Downloads list at No. 73. It also performs well enough to appear on the Official Singles Sales tally, where it comes in at No. 79.
'Anyone' originally debuted on both tallies in February 2020. At the time, the track launched at No. 20 on the two rankings, which still stands as its all-time peak. In the following frame, it dipped 60 spots, landing at No. 80, and then it vanished. The song hasn't been seen on either ranking since.
Lovato premiered 'Anyone' at the Grammys on January 26, 2020. Just a few seconds into the performance, her voice cracked and she was forced to start over. While some artists might see that as a failure, it only made the showing more memorable. Her tear-inducing delivery ended up becoming one of the highlights of the evening.
'Anyone' marked Lovato's first new release and first live performance since a near-fatal drug overdose more than a year prior. She had been rushed to the hospital and nearly didn't survive in the summer of 2018. Lovato then took time away to focus on her sobriety and write new music. 'Anyone' was seen not just as a comeback, but an incredibly beautiful one, and it offered a level of openness few superstar musicians are willing to deliver.
The song was later added to the tracklist of Lovato's full-length Dancing with the Devil… The Art of Starting Over. That collection, which dropped in April 2021, also featured several other singles, including 'What Other People Say,' 'Dancing with the Devil,' and 'Met Him Last Night' with Ariana Grande.

School mom reveals rare peek into Kate Middleton's parenting and private life: "I do see her a lot..."

It's a side of the Princess of Wales we rarely get to see. Kate Middleton might be the future queen of England, but when it comes to parenting, she's just like any other mom on the sidelines. At the premiere of The Real Housewives of London, cast member Panthea Parker shared a rare glimpse into the Princess of Wales' life as a school mom, revealing that Kate is a constant presence at her children's sports games. 'I see her quite a few times because my son's school plays against her son's school,' Parker told Hello!. 'So they play rugby and football against each other so we're always at her school or my school. I do see her a lot but not to talk to, just from afar. So classy, so lovely, and she never misses any of her children's matches, so really amazing.' A hands-on royal mom Kate, 43, and Prince William are raising Prince George, 12, Princess Charlotte, 10, and Prince Louis, 7, with a focus on family life despite their packed royal schedules. Kate has previously spoken about the challenges of balancing motherhood with duty. On the Happy Mum, Happy Baby podcast in 2020, she admitted to feeling 'mum guilt' when she couldn't do the school run. 'Even this morning, coming to the nursery visit here – George and Charlotte were like, 'Mummy how could you possibly not be dropping us off at school this morning?'' she said with a laugh. A family that loves sports The Wales family is known to be 'sport-mad,' as royal biographer Robert Jobson has put it. From rugby and football to their annual Wimbledon outings, the family embraces both playing and spectating. Jobson noted that George and Charlotte's appearances at big sporting events show not only their parents' enthusiasm but also a way to connect with the public. With summer holidays underway, the royal kids might be off the field for now — but according to Parker, fans can count on spotting their mom cheering from the sidelines once the school season kicks back in.

Hitting All The Right Notes On A Music-Driven Culinary Tour Of Seattle

There are so many gems in the Emerald City that showcase the area's deep connection to all sorts of music with culinary connections. Ready to rock and roll? Let's go. Home to so many legends Icons including Jimi Hendrix, Quincy Jones and Ray Charles called Seattle home at some points in their lives, then, of course, Ann and Nancy Wilson and the beloved Heart crew. Years later, the incredibly prolific grunge era was born in the PNW. Hit up the Museum of Pop Culture (MoPOP) at Seattle Center for some surprising background on that period of time when Pearl Jam, Soundgarden, Alice in Chains and Nirvana were making some beautiful noise. That ground-breaking trio is featured in a special exhibit that's closing Sept. 7, so get on it. While you're roaming around this stunning Frank Geary-designed space that began as the vision of the late Mircosoft co-founder Paul Allen, be sure and check out the new seasonal menu at Culture Kitchen's newly updated Lounge. Menu highlights include a dry-aged salmon with Braised Bok Choy, Forbidden Rice Congee and a Kombu Dashi, as well as Truffled Mushroom Croquettes and a shareable charcuterie plate with pork sourced from Beast and Clever Butcher Shop/Restaurant. Still in a Smells-Like-Teen-Spirit frame of mind? Consider checking into Hotel Max, where the vibe carries over into the guest rooms on the special Sub Pop Records floor. You're going to dig the doors emblazoned with larger-than-life photos of music legends and the turntables in those rooms. This spot is rightly famous for its nightly beer hour in the lobby, where guests gather and become fast friends. But before leaving Seattle Center, there's so much more to explore. Bumbershoot'n This Labor Day weekend celebration of music and art extends to culinary arts with some of last year's biggest hits making return appearances. Yes, the crowds called for encores from Local Tide -- beloved for its fish-n-chips – Musangtino's x Musang (fantastic Filipino food from chef Melissa Miranda), The Chicken Supply, Eva's Wild, known for its sustainable fishing and low carbon footprint, neighborhood favorite Big Max Burgers, Gold Coast Ghal Kitchen (Liberian and Ghanaian cuisine) and a whole bunch of meats cooked low-and-slow by Jack's BBQ. Newbies that'll have tongues wagging are Seoul Tacos, XX and Indigo Cow, which sources extra rich milk for its crave-worthy soft-serve from Japan. Check out the full culinary lineup on the official Bumbershoot site and tune into my Instagram live feed for a tasting tour at 1 p.m. Pacific on Aug. 30. One more tasty stop while in this neighborhood: Don't miss a visit to the KEXP Gathering Space, where Caffe Vita pulls stellar espresso drinks and serves up pastries from local bakeries including Sea Wolf. Consider yourself lucky and get ready to coffee nerd out if you are able to hit one of the free First Friday cuppings. Also, yes, you need some merch from the Sub Pop Shop that recently opened in the Gathering Space. Good morning from Easy Street Not sure if there's another place on the planet quite like this vinyl-centric record shop in West Seattle that's also home to a popular cafe. To get a sense of the good fun on offer at this venerable diner, just check out the special lineup of bevs: The Cardi B chai latte promises to deliver a sexy sipper, while the Mudhoney is a mocha that gets extra sticky sweet with the addition of, yup, some honey. Come for brunch on a Sunday morning – during the robust Neighborhood Farmers Market – and you might have to wait for a table. Before getting hangry, wander down the block for a pastry from the award-winning Bakery Nouveau or go the other direction and indulge in the food porn-ish sweets from the Little Jaye Cafe and Bakery popup at Lady Jaye. Those now legendary Fruity Pebbles Rice Krispies Treats will make you feel like a kid again. Crank it up Ever noticed how you can barely hear the music that's playing in most dining rooms? Yes, that's why they call it background music. But let's hear it for a restaurant that isn't shy about turning up the volume and setting the stage for meals as entertainment. That's just one reason to fall in love with Ciudad in Seattle's Georgetown neighborhood. This live-fire cooking spot opened in 2016 was initially a collaboration between chef Matt Dillon and Marcus Lalario, a tireless entrepreneur who's got a robust lineup of restaurants and lifestyle/clothing brands under the Sugar Shack Unlimited flag. Dillon's no longer involved, but since he stepped away, there have been lots of interesting developments in the Ciudad space, including adding another eatery nearby – Northern Italian-inspired Mezzanotte opened in 2020 -- and bringing chef Taylor Thornhill on board to expertly run the Ciudad kitchen. But let's back it up to Lalario's early career immersed in music: 'I liked about my age to get my first job at Easy Street Records,' he said with a smile. He was just 16 and before turning 20, he'd bought The Beat Box and turned it into an all-ages club – it later became The War Room. He managed bands and launched a record label called Under the Needle. There were bars, boutiques and barbershops in those early days when Lalario often partnered with frequent collaborator Brian Rauschenbach. Inspired by burger joints he'd frequented while touring with bands, Lalario opened lovable Lil Woody's on Capitol Hill in 2011. It became an instant hit leading to multiple locations including a hot spot in Tokyo. Lil Woody's deserves a big round of applause for shining the spotlight on area chefs during its wildly popular Burger Month each February. A couple years ago, Lalario opened Darkalino's in Pioneer Square, a salute to Old School Italian-American cuisine with chef Sean Russo ably running the kitchen. (The house-made pasta is outstanding and those magical meatballs are likely to remind you of your Nonna.) The restaurant shares the gorgeous space with upscale sports-driven retailer Hometeam, which – get this – just launched a free concert series this summer. Talk about full circle with the whole music thing. Brava! Back to Ciudad, where the wide-ranging menu defies definition. The temptation is to order everything and that wouldn't be wrong. Among the many superstars: fried corn with charcoal aioli, seared haloumi served alongside roasted red peppers, pickled pears, almond, morita chili oil and – wow – those harissa-glazed carrots with herbed goat cheese, dates, garlic walnut crunch. And those are just the starters, setting the table for a spectacular lineup of grilled meats and veggies cooked over charcoal, but don't you dare miss those lamb ribs finished in harissa barbecue sauce, labneh, pickled red onions, fresh herbs. They slap. Finally, that soft, squishy, flavorful flatbread leaves a lasting impression, made for many years by the same dedicated line cook. Big round of applause for chef Kevin! And all that jazz Can't talk about music in Seattle without a conversation about Dimitriou's Jazz Alley, arguably the coolest supper club on the West Coast. Fans pack the place to see an eclectic mix of performances. Ravi Coltrane, Ottmar Liebert and Keiko Matsui are on the calendar soon. For years, Grammy award winner Taj Mahal has settled in for a long run during the week leading up to Thanksgiving. This year marks his 30th anniversary at Jazz Alley. Amazing. Guessing a big part of the pull back to this classy club run by John, Carla and Ari Dimitriou is chef Alvin Binuya's exceptional food. The menu is extensive and while there's plenty to make meat lovers happy – the Double R Ranch Prime New York Steak – is top of that must-try list. Still, seafood is king. Fresh, line-caught wild salmon and halibut preparations are brilliant. And, yes, that seafood gumbo will likely make you hum 'Do You Know What It Means to Miss New Orleans.' Order that classic with a side of Southern-style collard greens and cornbread. One more very cool reason to book a table at Jazz Alley? There's free garage parking nearby, a real rarity in Downtown Seattle.

Gen Z & Gen Alpha ‘Brainrot' Terms Have Officially Been Added to the Cambridge Dictionary — & We Have So Many Questions

Language is ever evolving, and that's never been more evident than when listening to Gen Z and Gen Alpha talk. They say the most random, out-of-pocket things that have gone viral on the internet from songs, resurfaced phrases from TV and movies, and more places that we can only begin to guess the origins of. It's hard to keep up! Still, rather than write these off as teen slang (or 'brainrot,' as people call the more nonsensical words), Cambridge Dictionary is leaning into the narrative. The prestigious publication revealed that it has added over 6,200 new words to its lexicon, including some of the most popular thing kids are saying right now, and we have so many questions about this move. Boasting as 'one of the fastest-growing dictionaries in the world,' Cambridge has added definitions for words like skibidi, delulu, tradwife, broligarchy, and more. Yes, these are now considered actual words. More from SheKnows Teens Are Showing off Their Dorm Rooms on TikTok & People Are Calling One Detail 'Diabolical' 'It's not every day you get to see words like skibidi and delulu make their way into the Cambridge Dictionary,' Colin McIntosh, Lexical Programme Manager at Cambridge Dictionary, said in a statement. 'We only add words where we think they'll have staying power. Internet culture is changing the English language and the effect is fascinating to observe and capture in the Dictionary.' We are so confused by this move. If the words are in the dictionary, does that mean students can include things like 'delulu' in their official school essays? And how did the researchers determine that these particular terms have staying power as opposed to other words like 'gurt'? And the most important question of all: will kids come up with a whole new slew of phrases once they realize adults finally know the definitions of their popular slang? (How can anyone keep up, ever?) People had big reactions to the words being added to the dictionary on X. 'Humanity is f**king doomed,' one person wrote, per Daily Dot. 'It's time to revoke internet privileges,' someone else Tweeted. Still, as a parent of two Gen Alpha kids, I'm thankful for these definitions ¾ because my kids certainly can't (or won't) explain them to me. After all, a June study found that only 68 percent of parents understand what Gen Alpha is saying (which is the same or higher than what AI models could understand). Keep reading for some of the slang terms added to Cambridge Dictionary and their definitions. Skibidi (adjective): 'a word that can have different meanings such as 'cool' or 'bad,' or can be used with no real meaning as a joke.' Delulu (adjective): 'believing things that are not real or true, usually because you choose to.' Lewk (noun): 'a particular style, fashion, or outfit especially one that is unusual and impressive.' Broligarchy (noun): 'a small group of men, especially men owning or involved in a technology business, who are extremely rich and powerful, and who have or want political influence.' Tradwife (noun): 'a married woman, especially one who posts on social media, who stays at home doing cooking, cleaning, etc. and has children that she takes care of.' Inspo (noun): 'something, especially something posted on the internet, that gives you ideas for doing something or that makes you want to do something.' Slop (noun): 'content on the internet that is of very low quality, especially when it is created by artificial intelligence.' Rizz (noun): 'the ability to attract people's attention and make them like you, often in a romantic or sexual way.' Search for more popular words in the Cambridge Dictionary HERE.
