Poppy doesn’t want any fake love. On Wednesday, the musician released her dark pop single “Knockoff,” along with the announcement that she’ll be releasing her LP Zig on Oct. 27.
The Le3ay-directed video splices clips of her in a skin-tone color leotard engaging in choreography surrounded by dancers with an image of her staring into a giant red orb that by the end of the video transforms into a large, blood-looking splatter.

Demi Lovato continues to rock up her catalog, this time with a new reworking of her 2015 hit “Cool for the Summer.”
Like her recent rock reimagining for “Heart Attack,” Lovato rerecorded “Cool for the Summer” to better reflect where she is now musically, a “Demi’s Version,” so to speak.
After debuting the “Cool for the Summer” rock version during her Holy Fvck tour in 2022, Lovato hit the studio with producers Warren ‘Oak’ Felder, Keith “Ten4” Sorrelles, and Alex Nice to update the Confident track, which was originally produced by...

To really understand the popularity of the K-pop group Monsta X, you just have to listen.
Friday, you heard it in the screams of hundreds of sleep-deprived fans who packed the legendary Roxy Nightclub in Hollywood for a private Monsta X performance, and then snaked a line down four blocks of Sunset Boulevard for a chance to meet Shownu, Minhyuk, Kihyun, Hyungwon, and I.M. at a Monsta X pop-up shop in the former Tower Records building (the sixth member, Joohoney, was out sick).
After a brief Q&a at the Roxy — key takeaways: I.

Swedish singer Tove Lo, who received a Grammy nomination for co-writing Ellie Goulding's chart-topper "Love me like you do", takes a lot of pride in having a big pop star sing a song co-written by her. She says its an amazing feeling.
Tove along with Max Martin, Ali Payami, Savan Kotecha and Ilya had co-written the 2015 song that had featured in the Hollywood film Fifty Shades Of Grey. Didn't she feel like singing that song instead of letting Ellie go behind the mic for it?
"No, I mean it's funny with that song. I helped out with the lyrics a little bit and I think it was always meant for her. I really love having a career as a songwriter too, so I take a lot of pride in having a big pop star sing a song that I have co-written," Tove told the publication in an email interview.

Years after Ricky Gervais roasted Mel Gibson at an earlier Globes show the pair hugged on stage when the Australian introduced footage from Mad Max: Fury Road.
Prior to introducing Gibson, Gervais, tongue firmly in his cheek, referred to previous bad blood between the pair. “I’m sure it’s embarrassing for both of us and I blame NBC for this terrible situation.”
After the embrace Gibson turned to the comedian and said: “I love seeing Ricky once every three years because it reminds me to get a colonoscopy.”
A subsequent exchange was bleeped out.
The Martian was named best musical or comedy. Ridley Scott accepted the award and said “Screw you” as music began to play while he thanked a long list of collaborators.
Scott rounded off by saying: “Finally I know my [late] brother Tony would have been here tonight for sure and I know many of you knew him and loved him. I love you...

Todd Haynes’ Carol headed into the ceremony at the Beverly Hilton on Sunday evening with the highest number of nominations - five - and left empty-handed. Similarly The Big Short, nominated for four, failed to translate a single nod into a trophy at the Hollywood Foreign Press Association’s annual shindig.
Away from the business of winning awards, arguably the most anticipated part of the evening was the inevitable encounter between show host Ricky Gervais and Mel Gibson, making his return to the limelight after years in the wilderness following a series of anti-Semitic and misogynistic remarks and erratic behaviour.
