Chappell Roan on 'The Subway,' Writing Through Heartbreak, and Loving Her Job Again
But 'the second project doesn't exist yet,' Roan clarifies. 'There is no album. There is no collection of songs.'
She goes on: 'It took me five years to write the first one, and it's probably going to take at least five to write the next. I'm not that type of writer that can pump it out.' Nor does Roan see any creative value in churning out music under pressure. 'I don't think I make good music whenever I force myself to do anything,' she says. 'I see some comments sometimes, like, 'She's everywhere except that damn studio.' Even if I was in the studio 12 hours a day, every single day, that does not mean that you would get an album any faster.'
And on that note: These days, Roan only goes on Instagram to post before swiftly deleting the app from her phone again. 'Socials harm the fuck out of me and my art,' she says. 'I'm not doing that to myself anymore.' She's excited to see how her project will develop without the internet's influence. 'I've never written an album where I don't have Instagram or anything,' she says. 'The album process is purely, only mine. No one on TikTok gets to see it.'

Everyone Is Making The Same Joke About The 31-Year-Old Baby, And I'm Sorry But It's A Good One
An Ohio couple welcomed their baby boy, Thaddeus, last week! Little Thaddeus isn't your typical newborn, though. He's 31 years old. Thaddeus was born from an embryo that had been frozen for 31 years, making him the longest-frozen embryo to ever result in a successful birth. A tweet from Pop Crave gorgeously visualizing the momentous occasion is going viral: PopCrave/Igor Kovalchuk via Alamy/Twitter: @PopCrave The replies are somewhat killing me. These jokes write themselves. "That baby could've been playing tony hawks pro skater 2 and listening to killswitch engage but now it has to play fortnite and listen to carti," one person said. Another person pleaded: "If life begins at conception, let this baby DRIVE and VOTE." And this person said, as a matter of fact: "She should be at the club." But one joke is more popular than the rest. It's this: "The first kid to have the RIGHT to claim he was born in the wrong generation." Because this thing is so absurd, here are some of the funniest tweets about this 31-year-old baby: "Good luck explaining that gap on ur resume bitch." "The concept of starting life at 31." "No the oldest baby ever is still this one." "Avatar: The Last Millennial." "God I'd be so pissed to find out I could've been a chic 90s baby and now I'm just a quirky headline in humanity's apathetic end times." "Imagine being born 31 years old." "The Birth of the Final Millennial." "Poor kid missed out on all the good shit." "That baby is going to have a weird craving for some Fruitopia." "This poor kid could've been born during one of the best decades in history and instead he's born into the era of Cocomelon, TikTok, and AI slop." And lastly: "Baby freezer burnt as hell I'm sure."

Pamela Anderson and Liam Neeson's loved ones aren't spilling on their relationship, but they are supportive
People in entertainmentFacebookTweetLink Follow 'Naked Gun' costars Pamela Anderson and Liam Neeson are coy when asked if they are romantically involved, but we do know how some of their friends and family feel about their closeness. Bravo executive and talk show host Andy Cohen - who was a good friend of Neeson's late wife, actress Natasha Richardson - was among the first people to provide insight, saying during a recent episode of his SiriusXM show that he and others who were close to Richards were 'very much stanning whatever this is' between Neeson and Anderson. Others appear to also be showing support. Richardson died in a skiing accident in 2009. She was 45. Over the weekend her sister, actress Joely Richardson, commented with seven hearts from her verified Instagram account on a carousel of photos of Anderson and Neeson, which Anderson posted on her verified Instagram account. Anderson and Neeson appeared on Sunday's episode of 'Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen' and Cohen let it be known that he would not be asking about the nature of their relationship. But the host did reiterate that Neeson's friends are 'very much stanning this relationship' and referenced the actor's adult son, Daniel Neeson, who was in the studio audience. 'Right, Danny?,' Cohen said to the younger Neeson, who smiled and appeared to agree. Liam Neeson reached out and held Anderson's hand after Cohen made the comment. Speculation about their relationship swirled as the pair began promoting their new film, now in theaters, with onlookers noting their chemistry on and off screen. Neeson first fanned the flames when he told People magazine in an interview last year that he is 'madly in love with' Anderson, going on to compliment her work ethic.

Beyoncé swaps horse for motorcycle in new Levi's ad; fans say 'Act III' rock album is near
Beyoncé Knowles-Carter is giving fans another piece of her "Cowboy Carter" era through her latest denim collection with Levi's, and she has the Beyhive buzzing about her next album in the process. The Grammy-winning singer unveiled the fourth chapter of her Levi's campaign, titled "The Denim Cowboy." Released Monday by her Parkwood Entertainment company, the latest ad opens with her on horseback and showcases highlights from her past collections with the denim powerhouse. Toward the end of the video, Beyoncé rocks the latest collection, a bedazzled denim jacket paired with matching jeans, before hopping on the back of a motorcycle. Fans were thrilled not only by the new look — reminiscent of the outfits worn during her Cowboy Carter and the Rodeo Chitlin' Circuit Tour — but also took the motorcycle ride as a clue pointing to her unannounced "Act III" album. A post shared by Parkwood Entertainment (@parkwood) Fan quickly flooded the comments with one saying, "Riding away on a motorcycle. C'mon Act 3!" Another cosigned, "We ready to get off the horse and ride that bike." "The font. The horse. The diamonds. The bucket. The twins. The motorcycle," wrote another fan. Beyoncé released her eighth studio album "Cowboy Carter" on March 29, 2024. The country album put a spotlight on Black country artists and in the process broke many records and made history on multiple fronts. The stadium tour concluded July 26 in Las Vegas after a 32-night run and became the highest grossing country tour in history. HOW SHE ARRIVED AND HOW SHE LEFT!!! OMGGF In July 2022, Beyoncé released her seventh studio album "Renaissance." The project earned her four Grammys, including best dance/electronic music album, and made her the most decorated artist in the awards' history. She later announced the album was the first part of a three-act project, making "Cowboy Carter" act 2. After releasing albums in the country and dance categories, there has been growing speculation that the last project in the trilogy could be a rock album. Beyoncé only fueled this idea by dressing as funk-rock diva Betty Davis for Halloween. The latest collection's ad is fanning the flames of speculation. Beyoncé first announced her collaboration with Levi's in September 2024. She followed up the announcement by teasing her first drop, "Chapter 1: Launderette," in a cheekily nostalgic ad. The newest collection will be available Aug. 7 on Follow Caché McClay, the USA TODAY Network's Beyoncé Knowles-Carter reporter, on Instagram, TikTok and X as @cachemcclay.
