Charlotte Cardin, Alessia Cara and more cover songs from Justin Bieber's new album
The Canadian singers show love to the pop star's 7th album, Swag With no promotional lead-up, Justin Bieber emerged from a four-year musical hiatus on July 11 with Swag, his seventh album. It's a collection of songs that surprised fans: on it, the Stratford, Ontario-born pop and R&B star makes unexpected musical leaps, leaning on the influence of indie darlings and Dijon, SZA's go-to producer Carter Lang and more to explore a new sound. 5 things to know about Swag, Justin Bieber's new album The lead single, Daisies, is expected to debut at No. 2 on the Billboard Hot 100, while covers of it and other songs off the album have been flooding social media. While on her Canadian summer tour, Montreal pop singer Charlotte Cardin took some time out of her rehearsal to cover Daisies, posting a video on TikTok where she flexed her drum skills while singing the first verse and chorus. It's not the first time she's covered a song by the fellow Canadian: in 2021, Cardin sang Beiber's Love Yourself on Parisian radio station RTL2, and in 2016 she put her own spin on Sorry. Vancouver folk artist Kaleah Lee also covered Yukon, her serene vocals floating over electric guitar plucking. Aside from her original music, Lee is known for her stunning renditions of songs by Taylor Swift, Maggie Rogers, Bon Iver, Mustafa and Clairo. Even Courteney Cox threw her hat in the ring, posting herself drumming along to Daisies on Instagram. The Friends actor wrote in the caption: "Didn't get all the beats but fun trying to learn it."

Courteney Cox, 61, sends her fans into a frenzy as she shares a clip of herself playing drums to a Justin Bieber hit: 'This was not on my 2025 bingo card'
Courteney Cox sent her fans into a frenzy as she shared a clip playing drums to a Justin Bieber hit. The Friends star, 61, who shot to fame after her role as Monica Gellar on the sitcom, flaunted her seemingly endless talents as she tried her hand at playing Daisies by Justin Bieber. Sharing a clip to TikTok, she was seen sat at a four-piece drum set complete with two gold symbols and studio headphones. The actress appeared focused as she drummed away to the hit while wearing a pair of flared jeans and a black T-shirt. Set up in what appears to be the TV star's lounge, Courteney finished her rocker look with a pair of black-tinted sunglasses. Alongside her post she penned: 'Didn't get all the beats but fun trying to learn it'. And the post has her fans in a frenzy as they flocked to her comment box in awe. One penned: 'Courtney Cox playing drums was not on my 2025 bingo card, but I'm here for it!!' 'I think she was made for music. She was discovered at a Bruce Springsteen concert. I'm here for it all' There were plenty of Friends references too, including the comment: 'Now make Ross pull out the keyboard' 'Go Court!! I was just talking about you saying how cute it would be if you were in the Bruce Springsteen movie!!' 'The one where Monica became a drummer' 'this song sounds like a mixture of Michael Jackson and Stevie Wonder. i love it.' 'Monica darling, your mother should definitely be proud of this effort. But she's probably not because it's not ross playing. Good try sweetie.' And post has her fans in a frenzy as they flocked to her comment box in awe 'I'm down for a full concert of this please ❤️' 'Monica on the drums, Phebs singing, Ross on the keyboard and Mike playing piano is what we need' 'Imagine being Courtney Cox, being able to do ANYTHING YOU WANT and playing drums in the living room. I think our priorities aren't in the right order.' Last month, Courteney rung in her 61st birthday - and she previously opened up about aging and using facial fillers. 'Thinking I was getting older when I was really young, that's just a bummer, a waste of time,' she said about getting fillers as she grew older during an episode of the Gloss Angeles podcast in 2023. 'It's a domino effect, it's like you don't realize that you look a little off, so then you keep doing more cause you look normal to yourself.' Cox added, 'You look in the mirror and go, "Oh, that looks good," you think, and you don't realize what it looks like to the outside person and just doing too many fillers and having to have them removed. 'Which thank God they are removable, I think I messed up a lot and now luckily I can, I was able to reverse most of that, now I'm actually just older.' Also last month, Courteney had the chance to celebrate her daughter Coco's 21st birthday. She shares Coco with ex-husband David Arquette - whom she was married to from 1999 until their divorce was finalized in 2013. The star jumped to Instagram to pay tribute to her daughter and typed out, 'From this to this. 21 years of everything. My heart barely fits inside my chest for the amount of love I have for you. 'Keep it coming Co to the Lo. I'm so happy I'm your Bourt Lemon. Happy birthday. I love you so much ♥️♥️♥️.' Her daughter jumped to the comment section to respond with, 'I love you so so much my momma.' Courteney has since been in a long-term relationship with Snow Patrol band member Johnny McDaid beginning in 2013. The pair ended their engagement in 2019 but have still remained together.

Ventana is a favorite among superstars, with celebrities including Taylor Swift, Anne Hathaway and Ivanka Trump among fans. The resort touts itself as a mix of 'indulgence and enrichment' with a $3000 a night stay including 'all-inclusive meals, non-alcoholic beverages, transformative wellbeing programming, exclusive amenities, and a captivating collection of curated experiences with bespoke itineraries.' Back in April, Curtis hinted at romance between the pair as he commented a heart emoji on a video of Aniston flaunting her toned frame while working out. Curtis regularly posts inspirational quotes and 'manifestations' to help people 'break free from their past and patterns' to find love - and Aniston has been following him on the social media platform for almost two years. It's perhaps notable that the actress also liked one of Curtis's posts just last week which read: 'Repeat these affirmations to heal and recover from a divorce, breakup or difficult romance and begin to call in the new empowered, healthy and divine love.' Aniston has been actively engaging with Curtis's content for quite some time. He boasts 550,000 Instagram followers. Back in November 2023, she showed her appreciation for a post which read: 'Is it better to settle or stay alone? The answer lies in nurturing meaningful relationships.

Curtis is also the author of 'Shift: Quantum Manifestation Guide: A Workbook for Coding a New Consciousness' - which, in an Instagram post of her own, Aniston told her followers she was reading in May this year.

She said: 'But I have been doing some hypnosis lately... it's shockingly good!' Curtis practices a therapy that he calls 'hypno-realization' which he says helps people 'break free from their past to create an entirely new reality of powerful loving connection.' Curtis's own backstory saw him overcome years of debilitating nerve pain, which first struck the summer after his freshman year at the University of New Hampshire in 1995. When an MRI revealed lesions on his spinal cord, he decided to change his story from 'frat guy athlete to something else' and pursue alternative methods of healing. Curtis credits his university professor for sowing the seeds of his philosophy. 'He taught me to meditate and introduced me to the idea of mindfulness: focusing on just being present,' he said in a 2017 interview. He also calls this professor his 'Stimulati' and 'thought igniter'. For her part, Aniston was wed to actor Brad Pitt from 2000-2005 before the Hollywood golden couple famously imploded when he met actress Angelina Jolie on the set of Mr. & Mrs. Smith. It wasn't until 2015 that Aniston would settle down again, marrying Justin Theroux in 2015. But theirs wasn't to be a lasting romance. They divorced just three years later. In 2022, Aniston tragically revealed she had unsuccessfully tried IVF - and wished she had frozen her eggs years earlier. The Troy actor and Jolie were then together for 11 years and welcomed three children together before their marriage came to its own explosive end in 2016; seen in 2009 'It was a challenging road for me, the baby-making road,' Aniston said at the time. 'All the years and years and years of speculation... It was really hard. I was going through IVF, drinking Chinese teas, you name it. I was throwing everything at it,' she added. 'I would've given anything if someone had said to me, 'Freeze your eggs. Do yourself a favor.' You just don't think it. So here I am today. The ship has sailed.' But, she added: 'I have zero regrets.' Theroux, 53, recently remarried - in a secret ceremony - to new love Nicole Brydon Bloom, 30. It is also understood that Aniston was taken by surprise when she learned of the wedding, but was nonetheless among the first to offer her best wishes to the happy couple. 'Jennifer was one of the first to congratulate Justin on getting married,' an insider exclusively told the Daily Mail in March. 'Yes, it took her by surprise but they have maintained a close friendship, and she is happy for him that he has found true love.' The source added that the news was somewhat bittersweet for Aniston, despite the fact she approves of Theroux's much-younger new spouse.

Iga Swiatek could sense Amanda Anisimova's tension in one-sided Wimbledon final
For the first time in more than 100 years, the women's final was won by a 6-0 6-0 scoreline, with Swiatek needing less than an hour to secure her maiden Wimbledon title. It was a nightmare scenario for 23-year-old American Anisimova, who was playing in her first slam final. A post shared by Amanda Kay Victoria (@amandaanisimova) 'At the beginning I saw that she was tense,' said the Pole. 'I wanted to focus on myself and not let that get into my head because it can be distracting, you can start taking things for granted. 'I can only imagine what she felt. Playing a grand slam final, it's a lot of pressure and she also must have felt a bit more fatigued after the semi-final. It's not easy and I was a bit worried but I wanted this win so bad that I just did my job. 'Do you really want to win Wimbledon? If you do, then you're not going to give any point for free.' After landing a final backhand just inside the line, Swiatek collapsed to the court and then climbed up into the stands to celebrate with her supporters, who included Friends star Courteney Cox. The pair first met at a sponsor's event in Paris last year and have stayed in touch. 'They know I love Friends,' said Swiatek. 'She loves tennis, she always posts about it and she plays pretty well so it was kind of funny. I didn't know she was going to come here. We're in touch but I'm glad she didn't text me because when I know someone famous is going to watch me I get stressed.' Swiatek took her tally of grand slam titles to six, but that is still one behind her coach, Belgian Wim Fissette, who has now won major trophies with four different players. He previously coached Angelique Kerber to the Wimbledon crown while he has also won US Open and Australian Open titles with Kim Clijsters and Naomi Osaka. A post shared by Courteney Cox (@courteneycoxofficial) Asked if he could have expected the scoreline, Fissette said: 'Of course not. You never do. But I knew that Iga was playing well. I was not there when she played her first five grand slam finals, but she won all of them, so it also means a lot.' The pair linked up at a difficult moment late last season when Swiatek had just split from previous coach Tomasz Wiktorowski and was privately fighting an anti-doping case, for which she eventually served a one-month suspension. There were question marks around whether it was the right fit, with Swiatek failing to win a title in the first six months of the year and struggling with pressure and expectation on her favoured clay. Those doubts now appear to be firmly in the past, with Fissette having helped persuade Swiatek she could thrive on grass. 'When I started, she was like, 'Wim, faster surfaces is just difficult for me',' he said. 'I had a feeling this could work out. Because just look at the champions the last 10 years. It's not always the big servers and the super big ground stroke players. 'Also good movers, smart players, that won, so, if Simona Halep can win, or (Marketa) Vondrousova can win, why not not Iga?' Fissette's key change was a footwork adjustment that helped the 24-year-old cope better with faster balls on her forehand – although she took some convincing. 'Let's say it was a battle to get that,' he said with a smile. 'When we started the clay-court season, Iga had so much success on the clay that it was difficult to find the moment, or impossible to say, 'We're going to do things a little different'. 'On the grass, there was an opening, because she never had success. So I came with some ideas. It was not easy to convince her. But, once she was convinced, she got better every day and and she texted me, actually, from the locker room, like, 'Maybe it was not a bad idea that point'.' Swiatek will return to the world's top three on Monday behind Aryna Sabalenka and Coco Gauff, with the story of her season now flipped on its head. 'Semi final 6-2 6-0 and the final 6-0, 6-0, it's just incredible,' added Fissette. 'It's a beautiful story from struggling in Madrid and Rome. We still call it a successful Paris to go to the semis. That was the comeback and then peaking on the grass and winning our first trophy together.'
