On Her New Album Princess of Power, Marina Finds a New Sense of Freedom—and Has a Whole Lot of Fun
Here, Diamandis talks to Vogue about striking out on her own, how making the album taught her to love herself in a different way, and the story behind her winking tribute to Salma Hayek on the deliciously titled standout track 'Cuntissimo.' Vogue: Good morning, Marina! Where am I finding you today? Marina: I'm honestly just in my bed in LA, all propped up. I shot a new video the day before yesterday, and I'm kind of still recovering. Was it an intense shoot? It was, actually. It was 14 hours, and really fun, but there was a lot of dancing. There was also some wire work, which I've never done before. Wow. How are you feeling at this stage, two weeks before the album comes out? Do you tend to get pre-release jitters, and does it feel any different this time around? I don't get jitters, per se. I feel much more excited, more than anything. And also just curious to see how people are going to react—particularly with this record. It's definitely a pop record, but it feels quite varied, especially compared to the singles that have come out so far. Obviously, every time I feel really inspired by something, I hope that other people feel similar. But with art, you can never control it. You just don't know how people are going to connect to it—and if they are even going to connect to it, based on my past experiences. But I feel really good. I'm ready to get into it, and start being out in the world again. It's your first record as an independent artist. Can you tell me a little more about your journey there, and why it felt like the right time to strike out on your own? So, I had been with Atlantic for five records—and with my publisher, actually—and so after those deals were done, I just didn't bother re-signing with anybody. I didn't really see the point, which is a privilege that's only afforded to an established artist, unfortunately. I think it's very difficult to be completely independent if you're starting out. I spent a couple of years just figuring out what kind of record I wanted to make, and then I actually ended up doing a partnership deal for just one record with BMG. So it's not solely independent, but essentially what it means is that I have my own record label. I have investment from someone else, but I get to decide what to do with it, which is really the key thing. That's usually the main point of frustration for a lot of artists: you want to do a certain type of video, but then you have to get 20 people to sign off on a budget. I don't have to do that anymore, which is great.

Sean 'Diddy' Combs' ex-girlfriend resumes testimony about his sexual interests
NEW YORK (AP) — Sean 'Diddy' Combs ' recent ex-girlfriend returned to the witness stand Friday in his sex trafficking trial, after testifying that he pressured her into drug-fueled sex marathons similar to those described by another former girlfriend, R&B singer Casandra 'Cassie' Ventura. The woman using the pseudonym 'Jane' is among several witnesses at the trial — now at the end of its fourth week — who accuse Combs of violence, including Cassie. Combs, 55, has pleaded not guilty to running his business empire as a racketeering enterprise that enabled and concealed the abuse of women over two decades. If convicted, he faces 15 years to life. Prosecutors questioned Jane about sexual subjects right from the start Friday, beginning with a 2023 trip to Las Vegas where Jane said she and Combs had a 'hotel night' with an 'entertainer.' Assistant U.S. Attorney Maurene Comey asked if Combs ever used the word 'freak.' Jane said he would say 'he wants his freak.' She said she understood that to mean 'he wanted me to be wild and sexual.' Her description of 'hotel nights' has closely paralleled Cassie's earlier testimony about numerous ' freak-offs ' she had with male sex workers under Combs' direction. Jane said during her first day of testimony Thursday that she repeatedly told Combs, in person and in writing, that she didn't want to have sex with other men. But Combs, who paid her rent and controlled other parts of her life, kept pressuring her and she felt 'obligated' to take part in the 'hotel nights,' she said. Jane said Thursday that she got to know Combs during a 'girls trip' to Miami in 2020 and dated him from 2021 to 2024. She said it began as a loving and passionate relationship, but he soon began sharing his fantasies involving her with other men and role playing. She said she came to regret it. After May 2021, she said 90% of the times she had sex during her relationship with Combs, it was with other men while he watched. Asked if she wanted to have sex with other men, Jane softly said, 'No… just Sean.' Both Jane and Cassie have described trying to rush through the encounters just to get them over with. Jane said the encounters sometimes lasted over 24 hours. The judge has taken steps to protect Jane's anonymity, including warning observers not to describe or sketch her in a way that would reveal her identity. The Associated Press does not identify people who say they're victims of sexual abuse unless they choose to make their names public, as Cassie has done. On Thursday, Judge Arun Subramanian threatened to eject Combs from the courtroom if he continued 'nodding vigorously' at jurors, telling lawyers that there should be no attempts by him to have an interaction with the jury. ___ Collins reported from Hartford, Connecticut.
