It’s just as beautiful as it is painfully honest," says Bebe. "I admit to getting in my own way when things are going well. I know I am not alone in experiencing self-sabotage during life’s most precious moments, and this ballad is an acknowledgment that sometimes we are our own worst enemy." Better Mistakes follow..

Dave J Hogan/Dave J Hogan/Getty Images) Word of the wise: When Louis Tomlinson calls you, you better pick up or face the consequences. The British singer took exception when his old One Direction bandmate, Liam Payne, was not answering his calls and, as punishment, put him on blast on social media. On Thursday, Liam took to his Instagram stories to show off his new haircut and painting of the late Prince Philip around the same time Louis was trying to get him to pick up the phone. After awhile, Louis decided to troll the "Strip That Down" singer by ratting him out to his 35 million Twitter followers. "I see you on Instagram lad @LiamPayne , answer your phone," Tomlinson tweeted, capping off his call out post with five exclamation points. The 29-year-old singer made it known he was keeping tabs on Liam and followed up in another tweet, "Boss drawing and that but get your priorities straight." Louis' two callout posts inspired his fans to also pester the "For You" crooner an..

Virgin Records April 16 marks the 20th anniversary of the release of Janet Jackson’s blockbuster seventh studio album, All for You. In honor of the milestone, here are five fascinating facts about the album. 5. Janet made All for You after divorcing René Elizondo Jr., whom she’d secretly married in 1991. He's the guy whose hands were covering her breasts on the cover of Rolling Stone in 1993. Despite the split, her producer, Jimmy Jam, said Janet was optimistic about the future, which is why the album was carefree, fun and upbeat. 4. Janet said All for You is “a suite of songs that helped me move from one emotional level to another.” She added, “I feel free, and there’s nothing more wonderful than freedom.” As MTV noted, the album's two themes were "the liberation that comes with ending a bad relationship, and sex." 3. All for You debuted at number one with the biggest opening sales week of Janet’s career, selling more than 605,000 copies. It’s since sold more than seven..

Pascal Le Segretain/Getty Images Katy Perry did not mince words when expressing her true feelings about social media. Taking to Twitter on Thursday, via an account that boasts nearly 110 million followers, the 36-year-old singer unexpectedly launched into a rant about online culture. "Social media is trash," she tweeted out on Thursday, but provided no context behind her opinion.

It’s hard because I’d rather not care about that and just live my life." "We buy clot..

Island Records In her music video for “Dancing with the Devil,” Demi Lovato reenacts the night of her near-fatal overdose in 2018. Now, in a new edition of Vevo Footnotes, we see what went into that process. We learn the video took two days to shoot but six months to prepare. Careful thought went into every detail. “There are no accidents in this video,” says director Michael D. Ratner, who also directed Demi's YouTube documentary of the same name. “From where people are facing to what they bring into frame, or where they are in frame, everything is thought through and has meaning. Demi has 23 tattoos and there are 23 Easter eggs in the video.” Not only did Demi recreate her hair color and outfit from that night, but some of her family members and friends are also represented in the video. “When recreating the night before my overdose some of the actors are wearing clothing to match some of my friends who were there, including Dani Vitale’s white tank top, which is seen in the..

But the artist continues to poke fun at the outrage -- this time with his new line of merch. X is now selling t-shirts with the slogan "I [Heart] Jesus" in big letters. Underneath that, in slightly smaller letters, it adds: "And that one part in the 'Montero' music video by Lil Nas X when he gets nasty with the Devil because it was a cool form of self-expression and art." Another t-shirt design says, "I watched the 'Montero' video by Lil Nas X and all I got was this lousy shirt and now I'm also gay and love Satan." The shirts will set you back $33 each.
