Perth Now2 days ago

Alex Warren and ROSÉ have released their surprise collaboration, On My Mind.
The Ordinary hitmaker had been teasing fans about teaming up with the BLACKPINK star on his social media accounts and the pair have now delivered a swoon-worthy love ballad.
The track is a new addition to Warren's album You'll Be Alright, Kid.
Set for release on July 18, the collection features all of the tracks from the 24-year-old star's debut LP You'll Be Alright, Kid (Chapter 1) alongside newbies such as smash hit Ordinary and Bloodline with Jelly Roll.
You'll Be Alright, Kid (Chapter 1) focused on "dealing with grief", while You'll Be Alright, Kid "turns the page with healing, resilience and optimism."
February's Ordinary spent 11 consecutive weeks at No.1 on the UK chart, marking the longest running No.1 in the UK by a US male solo act in more than 70 years and the joint longest running No.1 of the 2020s, tied with Ed Sheeran's Bad Habits.
On the viral success of the TikTok hit, Warren told Variety: 'I am so forever grateful for all the support and will never stop saying thank you.
'I wouldn't have any of this if it weren't for my fans, so I am so appreciative.'
Recounting how quickly Ordinary came to fruition, he shared: 'We wrote 'Ordinary' in December last year, started teasing it in January, and released it in February.
'In the music industry, that's a crazy fast turnaround, but we did that because we knew immediately how good it was. I've never had a song so quickly 'click' and I just had to put it out as soon as possible.'

Taylor Swift's company buy giant friendship bracelet for 13k

Taylor Swift has spent $13,000 on a giant friendship bracelet. The Bad Blood hitmaker's personal services company, Firefly Entertainments Inc., have reportedly splashed out on the 140-foot-long inflatable decoration which was draped over New Orleans' Caesars Superdome during her Eras Tour, local outlet 4WWL have revealed. The outlet explained the information came from the Louisiana Stadium and Exposition District, the state board that manages the dome and is expected to approve the purchase during a board meeting. Firefly will be responsible for collecting, shipping, and delivering the bracelet - which read 'Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour' in white beads, with colourful gems in between the words - according to the purchase agreement. Shawn and Jules Kolodny of Kolossal Arts designed the piece and are thrilled Taylor is giving the bracelet a permanent home. They told Us Weekly in a statement: 'It's so fitting that the final trade of the giant friendship bracelet was to Taylor — she's the reason it exists. We love that it's with her now.' Making and trading friendship bracelets has been a favourite pastime of Taylor's fans at her concerts and is inspired by a line in her 2022 song 'You're on Your Own, Kid', which reads: 'So make the friendship bracelets, take the moment and taste it.' During one of her three shows in New Orleans last October, Taylor praised the giant bracelet. She told her audience: 'You've created traditions. You've created this mass movement of joy every time we play a show. And it makes me so proud, it really does. 'I just showed up one day and you guys were trading friendship bracelets and I was like, 'That's cool,' and now there is a giant friendship bracelet on the outside of this stadium.' 'Which is so nice of them to do for us — but it's even nicer of you guys to create things that went so far beyond what I ever expected for this tour.' Following the New Orleans concerts, the giant friendship bracelet was moved to other tour stops in other cities.
