Description
This week on Name 3 Songs…
⚡ Fangirl Nonsense: Harry is back! Harry’s hair is back! Ayo Edebiri reacts to Prince William at the BAFTAs like any Irish person would. Dua Lipa is back with another song that sounds like all of her other songs and we love her for it.
⚡ In the midst of red carpet season, Timothee Chalamet and Andrew Scott are each asked inappropriate questions, making them visibly uncomfortable on camera. We continue to explore the state red carpet reporting and why journalists are leaning into click bait questioning that dehumanizes professional actors.
⚡ Beyonce’s country music album is out March 29 as act ii of Renaissance. We explore country music’s origins with black culture and slavery as well as its long-standing reputation of keeping POC and women out of the country music radio charts. Beyonce’s power will undoubtedly shake up the country music industry and allow for POC and female country artists to rise. But her album will also signal a new opportunity for fans and people who grew up in the South who previously felt alienated by the genre.
