Halsey frown & out
smile in DON’T expect Halsey to crack a pictures anymore – her song Nightmare is a comment on misogyny in music. this She told Rolling Stone: “I wrote a song based on my experience as ‘famous’ person, being on red carpets you and having people say, ‘Why don’t myself smile?’ Or me posting photos of be in a bathing suit and having people her like, ‘I thought she was sad about a slut?’ break up, why is she acting like a “I wrote Nightmare to give women and vent song they could yell to about it their frustration.” SORRY ABBA fans, the super Swedes won’t be playing Glastonbury Festival – ever.
Asked if they could consider headlining Worthy Farm the band’s
Bjorn Ulvaeus replied bluntly: “It’s a straight no. Doing just one show would be the same as doing a whole tour.” ★

BOHEMIAN RHAPSODY OST THE Darkness believe in a thing called Ed Sheeran because they created him.
The enduring rockers toured with Ed this summer and they feel partly responsible for his incredible success. Frontman Justin Hawkins said: “Apparently he really loved the first album and when he first started playing guitar apparently [Darkness hit] Get Your Hands Off My Woman was the first riff he ever played. That’s what he said. I don’t know if it’s true.” The Darkness even started a footie team with “fellow Suffolk gentleman” Ed during the summer because they go way back. This week The Darkness hope to out-chart Ed with their new semi-concept album, Easter Is Cancelled.
Justin said: “One of the things that we thought was let’s explore a realm in which Jesus and the three Marys decide to use their supernatural ability of being God’s son and all, and also being super buff because he’s got my physique, which is super buff. That Jesus THE soundtrack to a soggy but cosy weekend has just landed courtesy of Maisie Peters. The 19-year Brighton singer’s lovely new EP – It’s Your Bed Babe, It’s Your Funeral – swirls with melodious relatable pop songs for a wet Saturday afternoon.
But she’s no overnight success story. decides he doesn’t want to be crucified after all and Easter is cancelled.”
The concept complements their tongue-in-cheek attitude to rock & roll.
In fact, at one point in their illustrious careers, punters weren’t sure if they were a comedy act.
Justin agreed: “It used to annoy me, but it doesn’t any more.” She said: “I’ve been consistently writing songs since I was 13.” Catch Maisie live in Nottingham and London this November.
