Comedian Sandra Bernhard panics audience with 'heart attack' on stage
Sandra Bernhard began her five-night residency at Café Carlyle in New York City on Tuesday evening. During her debut performance, the 69-year-old comedian — who once counted Madonna as a close friend — revealed to the audience she recently had open-heart surgery. 'It was a planned surgery; it wasn't that dramatic,' the actress noted before mentioning other patients in the hospital who were in grave condition. 'This s**t is crazy. I'm gonna pull through and get the f*** out of here,' she said, according to an account from Billboard. Bernhard moved the show along, before later returning to the subject to use it as an unexpected punchline. She clutched her chest and slumped over, simulating a heart attack before quipping, 'That's a new party trick.' In addition to cracking jokes, the multihyphenate entertainer sang a selection of cover songs with her Sandyland Squad Band. Together, they covered recognizable tunes including McFadden & Whitehead's Ain't No Stoppin' Us Now and Lana Del Rey's Young and Beautiful. Sandra's partner of more than two decades, Sara Switzer, was part of the 90-person audience during opening night. On Wednesday she took to Instagram, where she boasts nearly 200,000 followers, and reflected on her first show. Last night @cafecarlyle [was] fun as hell. The band was beautiful, the crowd divine. I'm there tonight through Saturday. Won't you come join us?' she captioned. 'I would if I were you!' she added before crediting her band and her hair and makeup team. For the occasion the Michigan-bred beauty wore a coordinating orange and red top and skirt covered in large round sequins. Her shoulder-length ginger-toned locks were parted down the middle and styled in bouncy ringlets. Cafe Carlyle also promoted her stint at the venue with a supportive social media post. 'Sandra Bernhard made her Café Carlyle debut last night and brought the house down with her one-woman show,' the Instagram account touted. The note continued, 'With her signature mix of cabaret, comedy, and cultural commentary, she delivered razor sharp wit and unapologetic satire.' The post concluded, 'There's only one @sandragbernhard and she's live through May 3.'

Lana Del Rey Causes a Stir With Dreamy, Country-Inspired New Single
The reigning queen of pop ballads, Lana Del Rey, is teasing her next album with her first new song in quite a while. The song is "Henry, come on," a break-up anthem, which has a bit more country influence than some of Del Rey's previous hit songs. There's even a "giddy up" in the song a few times. Del Rey's next album, The Right Person Will Stay, is slated to come out in just over a month, on May 21. So far, "Henry, come on," is the only song Del Rey has released for this next album. View the to see embedded media. Probably best known for her hits like "Summertime Sadness" and "Young and Beautiful," Del Rey's smoky and ethereal stylings have made her as popular, though sometimes divisive. In some ways, Del Rey is the anti-Taylor Swift, insofar as her songs tend to move away from pop hits, and, often, closer to James Bond-esque theme songs. In fact, last May, Del Rey revealed that her 2015 song "24 Hours" was written intentionally as a possible James Bond theme song, saying, 'I wrote that for them," she told Rolling Stone in 2024. Del Rey had hoped that "24 Hours" would be selected for the film Spectre, though Sam Smith's "Writing's on the Wall" ended up being the opener for that film. But, to this day, Del Rey's entire album Honeymoon has serious Bond vibes. That said, the new song "Henry, come on," makes it seem like Del Rey is maybe moving in a more alt-country direction. Either way, the new song is solid. When The Right Person Will Stay hits on May 21, we'll be listening.

"This is particularly challenging when people assume you lack morals or values," she continued. Thus, it may escalate.

Selena Gomez attacked over deleted viral video
When pop stars get into politics, it's bound to be a messy affair. The Heart Wants What It Wants hitmaker Selena Gomez recently posted a video of herself on social media breaking down over US President Donald Trump's tough stance on illegal immigrants (in case you've been living under a rock, he wants them deported and isn't afraid of a crackdown). While fans hummed and hawed over her video, another pop star took umbridge to her reaction. Lana Del Rey, of Young and Beautiful fame, lashed out at Gomez even after her Instagram Story had been deleted, saying: "You should pack your bags and go back to Mexico. Take your abuela (grandmother) with you.' Del Ray has been an avid supporter of Trump's political slogan 'Make America Great Again'. In the now-deleted clip, Gomez said tearing up, "I just wanted to say that I'm so sorry. All my people are getting attacked. The children. I don't understand. I'm so sorry, I wish I could do something but I can't. I don't know what to do. I'll try everything, I promise." She also wrote in the video, "I'm sorry" along with a Mexican flag. Netizens were quick to point out that as an American, the Mexican illegal immigrants were not 'her people'.
