PinkPantheress Drops ‘Fancy That': Stream It Now
PinkPantheress is officially back with her new nine-track mixtape Fancy That, out today (May 9) via Parlophone and Warner Records, marking her first full-length project since 2021's breakout To Hell With It.
The release comes after a several-month break from the spotlight. In August 2024, the 24-year-old British artist, born Victoria Walker, canceled all remaining tour dates, including festival appearances and high-profile support slots with Olivia Rodrigo and Coldplay, to focus on her physical health.

'It is with the heaviest heart that I will not be able to continue with the rest of my live shows this year,' she told fans at the time. 'It appears I have reached a wall which I am struggling to penetrate through.'
Now, PinkPantheress says taking that time away was necessary for her well-being, despite pressure to push through. 'Really the least of my concerns was the money,' she told Apple Music's Zane Lowe. 'There was something that I needed to address and so I had to leave… But obviously, what goes around comes around, and I'll be back again.'
That moment of pause, including what she called a turning point when she impulsively cut her hair, ultimately helped set the stage for Fancy That, which finds the singer leaning further into her experimental pop-meets-club sound.
It comes following last month's release of the single 'Stateside', which arrived three weeks after 'Tonight,' the lead single from Fancy That. The club anthem, which samples Panic! At the Disco's 2008 track 'Do You Know What I'm Seeing?,' hit No. 5 on Hot Dance/Pop Songs and No. 25 on Bubbling Under Hot 100. She joked that Doechii 'chewed' her up when performing the 'Tonight' dance backstage at H&M's inaugural music festival in Los Angeles in April.
Fancy That is now available to stream across all major platforms.

Legendary Coronation Street duo reunite after 11 years and fans can't believe it
Two Coronation Street legends have reunited 11 years after last appearing on the cobbles together, and fans can't believe it. It comes as Katherine Kelly, who played the role of Becky McDonald, posted a reunion picture with Julie Hesmondhalgh, best known for the character Hayley Cropper. Hayley was the first transgender character on a British soap and throughout her time in Weatherfield, formed close friendships with Fiz Brown (Jennie McAlpine) and Carla Connor (Alison King), as well as Becky. After first joining the ITV programme in 2006, Becky formed an unbreakable bond with Hayley and her husband, Roy, and they remained a tight-knit family-like trio until she departed for Barbados in 2012. Then sadly, after 16 years, Hayley's time came to an end on Corrie when she decided to end her life after battling with terminal pancreatic cancer in 2014. However, Katherine's recent Instagram post has left fans rather excited, as it appears the pair are working together once more. As well as a picture of the actresses hugging with huge smiles on their faces, Katherine also shared a picture of Julie in a recording booth and another of a recording studio set up with equipment. Katherine captioned the photos: 'A day spent with one of my FAVOURITE human beings deserves a place on the grid @jhesmondhalgh.' One fan commented: "Icons! And the 'Reunited' song comes to mind.' Another wrote: 'This photo has made my day, all we need is David in the middle x' Someone else said: 'What ever this is I can't wait to watch.' Also on social media, this Corrie viewer put: 'HAYLEY AND BECKY REUNION AHHH MY GODDDDD.' While this person added: 'Always Hayley n Bex to me but both great actors post Corrie.'

Taylor Swift No Longer Needs to Re-Record Debut Album & ‘Reputation,' But Have Fans Come to Expect ‘Taylor's Version'?
After Taylor Swift surprised the world late last week with the news that she now owns the masters of her first six albums, once the dust settled, fans wondered: Will the final two planned re-recordings of her self-titled 2008 debut album and of 2017's Reputation ever see the light of day? The thing is, even though Swift no longer has an express reason to re-record the projects to reclaim their ownership, her fans have grown accustomed to the fanfare around the Taylor's Version releases, including unheard 'From the Vault' tracks and new music videos.

She also said both 'can still have their moments to re-emerge when the time is right, if that would be something you guys would be excited about.
