The 25 Best Pride Songs of 2022 (So Far): Staff Picks
2022 has already proven to be a year in which popular, newly-released singles are fewer and further between, especially when it comes to the Billboard Hot 100. But that doesn’t mean there haven’t been plenty of incredible new songs to jam out to this year. That goes double for LGBTQ artists — even just halfway through the year, dozens of queer and trans stars have already released career-defining songs, with some even upending their entire public personas in favor of releasing something that is honest about their sexualities. Exceptionalism in queer art has also spanned genres; pop, R&B, rock, folk, and even some country has seen major singles by queer artists hit the market in 2022. So, to celebrate the work these artists put into their songs this year, check out Billboard’s...

Danny Boyle Brings Anarchy to TV
London in the late 1970s was trash. Literally. Every street was lined with bags of refuse. Flies buzzed around moldy garbage that often sat for weeks at a time. The haulers were on strike. Prime Minister James Callaghan ignored the trade unions’ demands for higher pay. When pressed by the media over the widespread strikes, Callaghan remarked, “I don’t think that other people in the world would share the view that there is mounting chaos.” What a dolt. Meanwhile, around the city, in the abandoned warehouses and the seedy pubs, a noise was amplifying. At first it sounded like a simple eclectic hum. A single frequency crawling out into the world, learning to feed itself. And it did. This noise evolved into something we call a C major chord. Growing, the noise slithered its way to an A minor c...

Bradley Cooper Is Unrecognizable as Leonard Bernstein in ‘Maestro’ First Look Photos
Netflix unveiled a glimpse at their new film Maestro on Monday (May 30), including Bradley Cooper‘s jaw-dropping transformation as West Side Story composer Leonard Bernstein. In the photos released from set, a ’50s-era Cooper is rendered in black and white alongside Carey Mulligan as Bernstein’s wife, actress Felicia Montealegre. He’s also miraculously aged up to portray the conductor in the 1980s, when he was in his 60s, using makeup and a wig. In one snap, he sits behind a desk, virtually unrecognizable as a cigarette burns between his fingers; in another, he paces in an auditorium as he waves his finger, either conducting the action on stage or giving a note.
