The ToroHFilms-directed video captures Xavi inside a courtroom as he takes the stand to make his declarations, reliving the story of his breakup with a baddie who also tells her side of the story.
'If I'm the bad guy in the story, why do you forget you hate me when you're drunk?' sings Xavi in Spanish. 'You act like you're my girlfriend, and you send me pictures of the Victorias,/And you act like it didn't happen when you're sober.'
While this is Xavi's first solo release this year, he also joined Belinda on single 'Mírame Feliz' and he was joined by Neton Vega on 'Hija de Papi' and Manuel Turizo on 'En Privado.' The new singles followed his debut album, titled Next, which dropped last year.
'I was trying to keep it as original as possible. I think all the fusions kept it 100 with the genre. We're not jumping straight to reggaeton or anything like that,' he told Rolling Stone of the record last summer. 'As Mexicans, we want to keep pushing our genre and flag as high as possible. And we want to stay true to the genre and take it as far as possible.'

Why Jenna Bush Hager Hates the Term ‘Mom Friends'
Jenna Bush Hager doesn't care for the label 'mom friends.' 'Some of my best 'mom friends' — which I sort of hate that term because it implies they're not my true friends — but some of my best mom friends are from the time I had my 12 year old,' Jenna told her TODAY with Jenna & Friends co-host Dwyane Wade on July 11. Jenna and her husband Henry Hager share daughters Mila, 12, and Poppy, 9 and son Hal, 5. 'We were all in this baby group together,' continued Jenna. 'One of my best friends in the world, we met through the baby group and now we have pre-teens. So, to go through every stage of life together? I think it is necessary to have that community.' Wade, a former NBA star, agreed. 'Especially for your kids,' said Wade. 'Once they get their friends ... you have to have a relationship with their parents. One, for them to allow their kids to come over or vice versa, but also two, if their parents are going to come over.' Wade and his wife Gabrielle Union share 6-year-old daughter Kaavia. The athlete is also a father to three other children from a previous relationship and the legal guardian of an adult nephew. 'We've got to be into them,' said Jenna, referring to the parents of her kids' friends. 'Something — or, I'm just not going to ever be around for playdates,' joked Wade. According to the American Psychological Association, friendship can protect against loneliness and depression, while lowering blood pressure and increasing overall life span. Shared experiences, such as parenting for example, may also enhance life. One study found that when people partook in an experience together, they rated it more highly than they would if they embarked on it alone. This article was originally published on

Justin Bieber admits to Hailey Bieber marriage struggles in new album
Justin Bieber is putting his love on the line. In his long-awaited seventh studio album, "Swag," the pop star appeared to address long-rumored marital troubles with wife Hailey Bieber in several tracks. In his song "Walking Away," the 31-year-old singer sang, "Tell me why you're throwing stones at my back -- You know I'm defenseless." JUSTIN BIEBER MAKES PUBLIC APOLOGY TO HAILEY OVER VOGUE COVER COMMENTS "Girl, we better stop before we say some s--t. We've been testing our patience. I think we better off if we just take a break and remember what grace is," Bieber added. In his next set of lyrics he sang, "Baby, I ain't walking away. You were my diamond. Gave you a ring. I made you a promise. I told you, I'd change. It's just human nature, these growing pains. And baby, I ain't walking away." On Bieber's track "Daisies," he appeared to paint a picture of emotional uncertainty as he questioned the strength of his relationship. JUSTIN BIEBER FEARS BEING 'EXPOSED,' SAYS HE'S BEEN 'USED' AS CONCERNS MOUNT FOR TROUBLED POP STAR He compared himself to someone picking petals, as he sang: "Do you love me or not?" "Head is spinnin', and it don't know when to stop. You said 'Forever,' babe, did you mean it or not?" Bieber continued. "And if it ain't right, babe, you know, I respect it. But if you need time, just take your time. Honey, I get it, I get it, I get it." APP USERS CLICK HERE TO VIEW POST View this post on Instagram A post shared by Justin Bieber (@lilbieber) In his track "Go Baby," one of the album's softer moments, Bieber appeared to shift from turmoil to tenderness. This time he sang directly to wife Hailey, 28, with admiration and affection. He dubbed the model "iconic," and shouted out her viral Rhode lip gloss, tucked neatly into her iPhone case — a nod to her growing beauty empire. "When sunlight turns to shadow and it gets hard to face. Like water to a flower, babe, I know you need the rain. Nothing needs to work out and nothing needs to break. Don't need to pretend that you're okay." Bieber added, "cry on my shoulder… stay by my side." His wife Hailey showed her support, sharing several photos of his album cover on her Instagram story. Bieber's "Swag" album was spotted on billboards across major cities, including in Times Square, New York. She additionally posted on her social media that she listened to the track "Daises."

In May, Bieber made a public apology to his wife about her Vogue cover. He took to Instagram to share images from Hailey's photo shoot with Vogue. In his caption, he explained that he'd once told her she'd never land the cover of the legendary fashion magazine. "Yo this reminds me when Hailey and I got into a huge fight," he wrote. "I told hails that she would never be on the cover of vogue, Yikes I know, so mean."

I think as we mature we realize that we're not helping anything by getting even. we're honestly just prolonging what we really want which is intimacy and connection." Bieber, who has since deleted his caption, finished his post by dedicating a message directly to his wife, and wrote, "So baby u already know but forgive me for saying u wouldn't get a vogue cover cuz clearly i was sadly mistaken." Earlier that same month, Bieber admitted being "flawed" in a series of posts on social media. The singer, who had previously been in the spotlight for his behavior on social media causing concern among fans, wrote, "I'm just an average flawed guy. I've done things that have hurt others. I continue to do and say things that hurt others unintentionally." Bieber and Hailey tied the knot in 2018 and welcomed their first child, Jack Blues Bieber, in August 2024.

There's just so much to appreciate about our four-legged friends. Every now and then, though, we meet a special animal like Blossom the baby cow. She was born on July 1 at @nikkidaniellle's farm, where she was immediately taken in and adored for exactly who she is. Although she was born with deformities and was immediately rejected by her mother, Nikki and her family have been helping the newborn calf thrive. She's blowing everyone's expectations out of the water at only a few days old, though Nikki's first video of the special calf shows her at just 12 hours old. What a beautiful new baby! Even though she got a bit squished while being born, she's a sweet and gentle soul who's crushing expectations left and right. She has no idea just what a little warrior she is! Nikki and her fans all have such wonderful perspectives about this unique baby calf and her future. One commenter had everyone smiling when she wrote, "She's unwrinkling. Think of her as one of those shrink-wrapped couches from Amazon. She'll get her shape."LOL! While Blossom hasn't had any vet appointments yet, viewers are sharing happy stories of their own special baby animals that give Nikki even more hope for the baby cow's future. "We had one that came out just like that!" another commenter wrote. "After being out when he turned a year old, everything straightened out, and he was the happiest bull we ever had." That's incredible! Just a few days after Blossom was born, she's already looking so much stronger. She's doing well with walking and feeding, and she's stealing everyone's hearts in the process! Look at her go! Viewers notice that she looks a bit lonely, but the good news is that the other calves are showing more and more interest in the newest member of the herd. She'll need to be kept by herself for just a few months while she's bottle fed, but soon she'll be ready to meet even more new friends! Blossom is beating all the odds and taking the world by storm.
