KPop Demon Hunters Get Golden News As Special UK Screenings Are Announced
Time to warm up those vocal cords, because KPop Demon Hunters is about to hit cinemas as part of a very special release. If you've had the soundtrack on repeat since watching the animated K-pop fantasy film on Netflix, HUNTR/X and Saja Boys fans will now have the chance to not only see the movie on the big screen, but belt out all the songs to your heart's content at a singalong screening. Netflix has announced it will be hosting a series of these screenings across the UK over the Bank Holiday weekend on Saturday 23 and Sunday 24 August, which follows the announcement of similar events in the US and Canada (more information can be found here). The animated musical adventure follows K-pop superstars Rumi, Mira and Zoey who use their secret identities as demon hunters to protect fans from a supernatural threat, which shows up in a rival boy band of demons in disguise. Since its release in mid-June, KPop Demon Hunters has not only remained hovering around the top of Netflix UK's most-watched films (it's in the number one spot at the time of writing), but it has also been crowned the most popular Netflix animated movie of all time, along with becoming the first original animated movie to enter the Most Popular Movies List (English). The soundtrack, meanwhile, has dominated the charts, with breakout track Golden by Ejae, Audrey Nuna and Rei Ami hitting the number one spot on both the Billboard Hot 100 chart and the UK Official Singles Chart. Golden's rise to the top of the UK charts made it the first K-pop number one in 13 years, following PSY's Gangnam Style in 2012. It's also the first time a song from an animated movie has hit number one since We Don't Talk About Bruno from the Encanto soundtrack three years ago. And Golden isn't the only song fans can't stop streaming, as Soda Pop and Your Idol are still in the UK top 10.

Per the source, things between Katy and Orlando "still aren't great" and "their relationship is a bit awkward and strained." Meanwhile, Orlando made his feelings about Katy and Justin known by commenting on an Onion post from August 1, which featured the headline "Orlando Bloom Spotted At Dinner With Angela Merkel" along with this caption: "Just weeks after announcing his split with fiancée Katy Perry, English actor Orlando Bloom was photographed Friday dining with former German Chancellor Angela Merkel. Angela kept Orlando laughing all night — he couldn't keep his eyes off her!' said an insider source who spotted the pair sipping wine, slurping oysters, and splitting a decadent piece of chocolate layer cake at a Michelin-starred restaurant." Orlando straight-up commented a series of clapping hands emojis, into that how you will! As for Katy and Justin, a source also recently told The Sun that "Justin wants to keep getting to know her and see how it goes... Justin isn't a guy who is easy to 'catch' and he has been having a lot of women trying to date him since he separated from his wife."
