The request is made in her signature Aussie drawl, something that musicians attempting to break into the international market would attempt to disguise in decades previous. Yet for the Amyl and the Sniffers frontwoman, everything from her peroxide mullet to proudly bogan background has become an important hallmark.
For the first time, direct-to-consumer sales accounted for more than half of the company's quarterly revenue, marking a significant milestone in Levi Strauss's business strategy.
Anna Holmes defines 'hype aversion' as a reflex against being told what to like, suggesting that popularity can create pressure rather than signal quality. This feeling can lead to a deliberate choice to resist mainstream culture.
David Bellion spent over a decade in top-flight football, playing for clubs like Manchester United and Sunderland, before becoming Red Star FC's creative director, focusing on brand development and cultural connections.
Wallace Shawn's new play, What We Did Before Our Moth Days, opens with a provocative monologue about a 25-year-old's relationship with a 13-year-old girl, challenging societal norms.
World Bear Day, dedicated to raising awareness about various bear species, has also become a celebration of the bear subculture in the LGBTQ+ community, where hairy, masculine gay men embrace their identities.
Kelce is simply replacing "9 windows and 6 doors" at her two-bedroom, two-bathroom home in Orlando. The breathlessness with which TMZ reported the news echoed across X, where people responded to the story with perhaps even more fervor than when Kelce's son Travis and Taylor Swift announced their engagement.
I needed deli, but God, I hate him, sings CMAT (AKA Ciara Mary-Alice Thompson), though it is less a weird diss track, and more about her relationship with irrational hatred in a confusing world: critic Dorian Lynskey praised it as a tragicomedy of misdirected anger.
It feels like you walked into your childhood home when you were 10-years-old. No one can get this feeling anywhere else. I have to have it. What if someone drops a meatball on the sofa or something? I would have a nervous breakdown.
First on the docket is a Heated Rivalry event at the Anthem on Friday, March 6. The competition is organized by event group Club 90's, who have been throwing Heated Rivalry raves around the country. (A bass drop after Rozanov's iconic line, "I'm coming to the cottage?" Why the hell not.) Unlike the freewheeling, hippie-dippie contests of yore, this event is strictly curated.

Bad Bunny's Super Bowl halftime show has drawn criticism from the country's top Republican: Donald Trump said it was "one of the worst, EVER!" in a post on Truth Social. Strong words from the president - but this isn't the first time a musician has drawn ire from right-wing politicians and conservatives. Stars like Lady Gaga, Cardi B, Taylor Swift, Beyoncé, and Bruce Springsteen have riled up conservatives, often over progressive themes or sexual lyrics in their music.
The most seemingly in-love famous couple on the scene these days is no doubt A$AP Rocky and Rihanna. When appearing on a podcast recently, Rocky was asked how they keep the spark alive, and he talked about making time for each other, and dating and being friends. This is an overly complicated answer as far as I'm concerned. I think the main way to stay interested in one's relationship with Rihanna is to be in a relationship with Rihanna. Just look at her.
In the 40+ years since its birth in Orlando, Florida, Olive Garden has not only expanded to over 900 locations, but the restaurant has also created a massive footprint in pop culture, appearing in sketches on Saturday Night Live, tongue-in-cheek punk songs, and an extended bit where Jimmy Fallon ended up owning the rights to the catchphrase "When you're here, you're family."
If you haven't been living under a rock, you'd know that Heated Rivalry has taken the world by storm. Since its release, the gay hockey romance has gone from a niche fan favourite to a full-blown pop culture moment. In an extremely short amount of time, the two leads (Connor Storrie and Hudson Williams) have already gone on to present at the Golden Globes, appear on late-night TV, and even secured a confirmed second season.

Of our 20 predictions for this past year, only two have definitively come true: one great ( Beyoncé won album of the year !) and one terrible (a Jared Leto exposé finally dropped -not that it appears to have really affected him at all ). A couple of others remain possibly true ( Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck have been seen together a number of times in recent months); some were obviously wishful thinking ( Marcello Hernández movie vehicle when??); and some were flat-out wrong ( Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco didn't break up, they got married!).
They're all part of the new strain of Mormon mania sweeping American culture. When I asked "Real Housewives of Salt Lake City" star Heather Gay about the phenomenon last week, she called it "undeniable and crazy." "I just think that the Mormon moment is because we're taking over, we're industrial, we're enterprising," Gay said. Two percent of the US population self-identifies as members of the Church of Latter-day Saints, but they've dominated our screens and conversations in 2025 like never before.
Ah, the '80s - a time when blowing into Nintendo cartridges like it was a life-saving ritual was a regular occurrence, Saturday mornings belonged to cartoons, and the biggest flex was having the perfect Trapper Keeper. If you ever got frustrated trying to solve a Rubik's Cube or begged your parents for a neon Lisa Frank folder, this one's for you. Take the poll below and tell us just how deep your '80s kid cred really goes!
