'Pink Slip' From 'Freaky Friday' Just Performed At Disneyland, And I'm A Moody Teen Again
Okay, so you know about the absolute phenomenon that is Freaky Friday. Jamie Lee Curtis and Lindsay Lohan play Tess and Anna Coleman, a dysfunctional mother-daughter duo who end up switching bodies in a freak incident, and are forced to live each other's lives. A damn classic. There's so much to love about this 2003 film: the story, the performances, Chad Michael Murray's terrible rendition of Baby One More Time. But another thing that makes this film truly iconic is Anna's garage band, Pink Slip, and this banger: To refresh your memory, the song is Take Me Away. Watching this film at a time when being in a band was considered the epitome of coolness was something else. We all wanted to be a part of Pink Slip, because this song goes HARD. I mean, just look at them! The song, originally by the Australian alternative/punk rock band, Lash, was turned into a cover by Christina Vidal for Freaky Friday. We know and love Christina as Maddie, Anna's BFF. Recently, a sequel to the film was announced. Freakier Friday, with our favorite duo, releases August 8th. You can check out the trailer here. Of course, Christina Vidal and Haley Hudson of Pink Slip are part of the sequel; as is our beloved Chad Michael Murray. But the new cast members— Lucille Soong, Stephen Tobolowsky, Rosalind Chao, Julia Butters, Sophia Hammons, Manny Jacinto, and Maitreyi Ramakrishnan—are incredible! On July 17th—Disneyland's 70th birthday—the cast (minus Lindsay Lohan) made an appearance at the Disneyland resort. In a vlog uploaded by YouTube channel Mouse Vibes, we see the new cast come out and greet eager fans. Addressing the crowd, Jamie Lee Curtis says: "But the thing that makes this movie truly rock, is a particular OG band..." "...so without further ado, it is my thrill to be able to introduce to you, Pink Slip!" The band sang Take Me Away as the crowd roared. I too sang along, sitting at my computer and headbanging, lyrics at the tip of my tongue like muscle memory. Mouse Vibes / Via Walt Disney Studios / Via I could watch that scene a million times and not be bored. Disneyland shared a snippet of this event on Instagram, and naturally, our millennial hearts couldn't take it. And of course, Lindsay Lohan was terribly missed. Instagram: @disneystudios Well, I'm just grateful for moments like these, because they take me back to a simpler time. The only thing I wanted back then was to look as cool as Maddie, Anna, and Peg, crushing it on the guitar or on the mic. And I can't wait for Freakier Friday to be out! Here's the full vlog by Mouse Vibes:

Lindsay Lohan Hints at Big Changes in Long-Awaited 'Freakier Friday' originally appeared on Parade. Lindsay Lohan returned to her iconic role as rebellious rock chick Anna Coleman for the upcoming movie 'Freakier Friday.' A sequel to the hit 2003 Disney film 'Freaky Friday,' the soon-to-be-released follow-up reintroduces the Coleman family, once again exploring the love-hate dynamic between Anna and her mother, Tess Coleman, played by award-winning actress Jamie Lee Curtis. Ahead of the long-awaited release, the singer-actress offered a glimpse of what fans could expect from the sequel. After more than two decades, the singer-actress promised to bring a new perspective to her character as she entered a bold new chapter of her life. 'The whole world looks different,' she told Empire. From being a 15-year-old rebellious high school student, she had evolved into a doting mother to her daughter, played by 'Once Upon a Time in Hollywood' actress Julia Butters. 'Everything is about your child,' she said, hinting more about Anna Coleman's transformation, adding, 'But we have to remember to make time for ourselves too, live our lives, fulfill our dreams. Moms are always trying to juggle it all and that's what Anna's going through in this.' Besides being a mother, the sequel also highlights a connection from her past, especially with her former band, Pink Slip. Continuing to tease her nostalgic return, Lohan said that Anna Coleman's punk attitude had always been with her. 'That punk Anna, she's still there,' the actress furthered. Moreover, the 39-year-old star shared her experience picking up a guitar again and rehearsing for the character's on-stage appearance. 'The second I started with my guitar coach again, it was like we never left,' Lohan recalled, explaining that it felt like no time had passed. 'It was the same guitar, everything. It was like it was yesterday.' Lastly, the 2000s It Girl hinted at bigger and more exciting moments, especially with Anna Coleman's show-stopping solo. 'We made it more difficult for this one,' she teased the public. 'I'm such a perfectionist; we rehearsed a lot.'

Ava Max Rings In July 4th Early With New Single ‘Wet, Hot American Dream'
Ava Max Summer is officially in full swing, and pop singer Ava Max is wasting no time in celebrating the weather warming up as the release of her third studio album Don't Click Play looms. With the 4th of July being right around the corner, it's fitting for her latest single to be titled 'Wet, Hot American Dream.' 'Wet, Hot American Dream," like previous Don't Click Play singles 'Lost Your Faith' and 'Lovin' Myself,' was produced by PinkSlip, who was behind Katseye's recent smash hit 'Gnarly.' 'Wet, Hot American Dream," similar to much of Max's catalog, is an upbeat pop track that would fit in as well at the pool as it does at the club. 'Feels like the summer, hundred degrees / I need a drink, someone pour me up a sex on the beach / You're on vacation from out of town / I wanna put you in my pocket, let me show you around," she sings on the track. "Tell me all your dirty secrets, all your fantasies / I wanna be your blue jean, white tee, wet, hot American dream / I'm not like other cowgirls / Unless you want me to be / I wanna be your blue jean, white tee, wеt, hot American dream.' When reflecting on the creative process behind her new album, Max admitted that she took some time to consider what she wanted it to sound like, ultimately deciding that simply opting for a cohesive pop project wasn't enough. '[I] had time to reset and figure out what I really wanted for this next album. I didn't want to just put an album together and put it out," she told Audacy in December. "[It] has slower songs, some pop, rock, [and] country records that the fans have never heard from me. And a couple of records that I think are the best records I've ever made in my entire life, which I'm very excited about that for people to hear.' Don't Click Play is out Aug. 22. The Don't Click Play Tour kicks off Sept. 3 in Los Angeles and wraps up Nov. 20 in Lisbon.

Kesha drops new single "Attention!" ahead of PERIOD album release
Kesha has released her latest single, "Attention!", featuring Slayyyter and Rose Gray, offering another glimpse into her forthcoming album, PERIOD (set to drop on July 4, 2025). This new track follows previously released singles like "Yippee-Ki-Yay" featuring T-Pain and "Boy Crazy," and it marks a continuation of Kesha's bold, sleaze-pop style. Although "Attention!" doesn't appear on the original tracklist for PERIOD, its presence in Kesha's campaign is marked by the signature pink period motif, suggesting it may be a bonus track. The song, produced by Pink Slip, pairs sleek house beats with a rowdy attitude and catchy lyrics. It's being described as a playful, rebellious anthem with a nod to the 2010s, featuring lyrics like, "T**s out riding with the windows down / They're playing me on the radio right now." The track has drawn comparisons to Charli XCX's "Guess" for its fun, energetic vibe. Kesha confidently asks, "Do I have your attention?" reminding listeners that she never lost it. Additionally, Kesha is gearing up to support her new album with the T**s Out Tour, set to kick off in North America on July 1, 2025. The tour will feature co-headliners Scissor Sisters, with support from Slayyyter and Rose Gray. Following the North American leg, the tour will head to the UK and Europe in spring 2026. Fans can expect Kesha's high-energy performances and bold new music on the road. Tickets for the North American dates are available now.
