Jessie Murph has fans in an uproar. The 20-year-old singer, who has been compared to Amy Winehouse, sparked a social media firestorm over the music video to her risqué new song '1965.'

'1965,' which is from Murph's newly released second studio album 'Sex Hysteria,' is filled with raunchy lyrics.

An insider told the Daily Mail that Murph's song and music video sparked outrage in the country music scene, with some comparing her to Kanye West.

'I'm glad that I make people have some sort of reaction. I'd rather them be like, 'I hate you,' or 'I love you,' rather than, 'I feel indifferently,' I guess,' the Alabama native stated. 11 Jessie Murph seen in New York City on July 21.

Days after releasing her new album, Murph's performance to '1965' on 'The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon' was similarly bashed by fans online. 'how dare anybody be comparing this to Amy… you should all be ashamed smh,' one fan wrote. 11 Jessie Murph performs during Spotify's 2025 Songs of Summer Celebration.

Inside Zac Brown and Kendra Scott's plan for $6.7M Austin home after engagement announcement
Zac Brown and jewelry designer Kendra Scott are engaged after the country singer popped the question with a sparkling pink diamond. So, will he move to Austin, TX, and make his fiancée's $6.7 million home their love nest? The 46-year-old 'Old Love Song' hitmaker, 46, got down on one knee and asked Scott, 51, to marry him—two months after making their romance red-carpet official. The lovebirds confirmed their engagement to People, telling the outlet that they are so 'happy and grateful' that they found each other. In May, the couple made their red carpet debut while attending the American Music Awards in Las Vegas. At the time, an insider close to Brown and Scott told the outlet that they were madly in love. 6 Zac Brown and jewelry designer Kendra Scott are engaged after the country singer proposed with a pink diamond ring. Getty Images 'They were set up by a mutual friend and are totally in love. They are head over heels and have become inseparable,' the source revealed. Just days after they hard-launched their relationship to the world, Scott—who shares sons Cade, 23, and Beck, 21, with ex-husband John Scott as well as son Grey, 11, with ex-husband Matt Davis—took to social media to gush about her new partner. 'What an unforgettable night at the @amas,' she wrote on Instagram that same day. 'We danced, we laughed, and seeing Zac honored with the inaugural Veteran's Voice Award was the highlight of it all.' 6 'They were set up by a mutual friend and are totally in love. They are head over heels and have become inseparable,' an insider told People. Getty Images for Spotify 6 In May, the couple made their red carpet debut while attending the American Music Awards in Las Vegas. Aurora / Brian Prahl / '@zacbrown, I'm so incredibly proud of you—of your heart, your service, and the man you are. You couldn't deserve this more,' she penned. They were then spotted at fellow country star Jamey Johnson's wedding together, leaving fans gushing over their adorable romance. Their engagement comes two years after Brown—who shares kids Justice, 18, Lucy, 17, Georgia, 16, Joni, 14, and Alexander, 11, with ex-wife Shelly Brown—separated from Kelly Yazdi. 6 The engagement comes two years after Brown separated from Kelly Yazdi. Getty Images Yazdi and Brown announced their divorce in 2023, after just four months of marriage. 'We are in the process of divorce. Our mutual respect for one another remains. We wish each other the best and will always appreciate our time together. As we navigate this personal matter, we simply request privacy during this time,' they announced with a joint statement to Billboard at the time. Brown then filed an emergency temporary restraining order demanding that Yazdi remove an Instagram post that he claimed damaged his public image. Yazdi rebuked the lawsuit and shared a fierce social media post in response. 6 Brown listed his lakeside home in Georgia for $3.25 million amid his divorce. REUTERS 'No one—not even Zac Brown with all of his money, power, celebrity, and lawyers, may silence my right to freely express myself through art or, although I have to date declined to do so publicly, to speak about the circumstances of our pending divorce,' she said in a video shared to TikTok on May 19. Amid his divorce battle, Brown listed his sprawling lakeside home in Georgia for $3.25 million, after splashing out $1.8 million for it in 2020. The home is located in a gated community and boasts 9,448 square feet of living space, including seven bedrooms and five bathrooms. 6 Scott's 16,149 square feet home, built in 2016, has eight bedrooms and seven bathrooms with a resort-style pool and greenery. The home comes with a resort-style pool and lots of lush greenery—offering the newly engaged couple peak privacy. Google Maps 'The kitchen overlooks an open-concept vaulted living room and a fireside breakfast room flowing to a screened porch with lake views,' the listing read. After he offloaded the home, Brown, who grew up in Cumming, GA, which is near his former property, remained in Georgia. However, things might change now that the country singer is engaged to Scott. Brown might even opt to move into Scott's $6.7 million Austin dwelling. The jewelry designer's abode, which was built in 2016, boasts eight bedrooms and seven bathrooms in 16,149 square feet of living space. The home comes with a resort-style pool and lots of lush greenery—offering the newly engaged couple peak privacy.

Min Woo Lee Cooks Golf With Justin Bieber, Kendall Jenner amid PGA Tour Break
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. After a grueling major season, golf professionals are finally catching their breath. Days ago, five-time major winner, Rory McIlroy, was spotted partying on a yacht in Saint-Tropez, with a champagne in hand. Now, another PGA Tour winner has stolen the spotlight with a different kind of celebration. The newest Texas Children's Houston Open champion, Min Woo Lee, who is currently enjoying his PGA Tour break, was spotted at a star-studded party in West Hollywood, Calif., on Thursday. But what made it special was Lee's cooking (golf swing) snaps alongside Justin Bieber and his wife, Hailey Bieber. PGA Tour winner Min Woo Lee joins Justin Bieber, Hailey Bieber, Kendall Jenner at the Swag X Skylrk party on June 26, 2025.

(Image Credits: @lilbieber/Instagram) Instagram The event, hosted by Spotify in collaboration with Bieber's newly launched fashion label Skylrk, doubled as a listening party for his surprise album Swag. The album, released on July 11, is Bieber's first studio drop in four years. Interestingly, the pictures shared by the 31-year-old pop singer on Saturday also captured Kendall Jenner dressed in all black, swinging a club barefoot. Lee, who's earned the nickname "Chef" for his flair both on and off the course, later commented on Justin's typing, "The Best." The PGA Tour pro's appearance at Bieber's party wasn't just a one-off. Lee and the pop star icon struck up a friendship earlier this year. It went viral after the Aussie golfer snagged his Houston Open title, where he held off Scottie Scheffler and Gary Woodland to clinch his first PGA Tour title with a final score of 20-under. The 'Sorry' singer FaceTimed Lee after the victory and posted a congratulatory message on Instagram. The 'Chef' later reposted it on his own Instagram story, captioning it, "J frickin B." In an interview with the PGA Australia, Lee also shared how both of them are fanboys of each other. "The thing is he (Justin Bieber) fanboys kind of over me, but obviously I'm fanboying over him," Lee told the Australian media four months ago. The 27-year-old also revealed how Bieber would share videos of his swing, and he would critique it. The recent snaps reveal how fast their relationship has grown from there.
