New Ariana Grande Videos

American singer Ariana Grande recently released the single the boy is mine. It's from her 7th studio album eternal sunshine (as with previous releases, the album title and most of the songs are written in lower case) which came out in March.

the boy is mine is the 3rd single to be released, coming after yes and? and we can't be friends (wait for your love). It's an R'n'B track inspired by a leaked demo of a song called Fantasize, which Ariana recorded for a comedy sketch. In turn, Fantasize took inspiration from the hit 1998 single The Boy Is Mine by American singers Brandy and Monica (still a good song after all these years!).

the boy is mine was released on 11th June. It's one of my favourite songs from eternal sunshine, along with true story. There's also a remix with Brandy and Monica (see below).

The music video stars Ariana as a seemingly ordinary woman living in a city overrun by rats. However, she harbours a secret crush on the city's mayor (played by American actor Penn Badgley) and transforms herself into Catwoman to carry out her plan of making him hers! Brandy and Monica also make an appearance as news reporters.

Please note that the video contains some swearing. :)

 


And now there is a remix with the singers of the original duet The Boy Is Mine, Bandy Norwood and Monica Arnold! It was released on 21st June. 

I like the way the 3 stars sound together and also the extra verses in the new version. This is the official lyric video. If a music video is made in the future, I'll update this post. :)

25th Anniversary of Mariah Carey's Butterfly Album

My favourite singer Mariah Carey recently released a 25th anniversary edition of her 6th studio album Butterfly. The original album was released on 16th September 1997 and featured songs such as her hit single Honey, The Roof and My All. It was actually the first album I ever bought (on cassette tape, lol) and I still consider it one of my fave MC albums. :) Butterfly was the first album that Mariah had more control over and it is R'n'B, rather than the pop (and later pop/R'n'B) of her previous releases. It also has pop and hip hop influences. The expanded edition contain 8 extra tracks (the original standard edition has 12)- a duet version of Whenever You Call with Brian McKnight , a new take on The Roof featuring Brandy , live versions of Butterfly and My All, acapella versions of Fourth of July and Outside, an Amorphous Anniversary Club Mix of Butterfly (with DJ Amorphous ) and a remix of Honey (Another Taste of Honey David Morales Mix). I had previously heard the D...

New Unexpected

We're finally getting the new season of the reality TV series Unexpected in the UK! Season 3 was shown in the US last summer , and I wondered when we'd get it here. I don't have any online streaming services so thought I'd just watch clips on YouTube, lol. However it's now starting here in early March. Similar to the popular MTV franchise Teen Mom , Unexpected focuses on teen parents. The first series featured 3 couples expecting babies- Lily Bennett and her boyfriend James Kennedy who have daughter Aaliyah, now 2;  Mckayla Adkins and partner Caelan Morrison who have son Timothy, also known as Timmy (and now daughter Gracelynn , born in January 2019), and  Lexus Scheller and boyfriend Shayden Massey who have daughter Scarlett. Season 2 saw the departure of Lilly and the addition of 3 new pregnant girls and their partners- Laura Barron and her boyfriend (now husband) Tylor Stawmyor who have son Lucas (and have since had another baby , a 2nd son, who is named Leo), ...

South Indian Videos

I've written several Bollywood posts this year but I don't feature South Indian music/films as much. So today I'm sharing some music and dance videos from Tollywood ( the Telugu language film) and Kollywood (the Tamil language film industry). :) Oo Antava Mawa- Pushpa- Dance Cover by Sonali First up is a dance cover of the song Oo Antava Mawa..Oo Oo Antava from the 2021 Tollywood film Pushpa: The Rise- Part 1 . I previously featured a dance cover of Oo Antava Mawa in a Dance Videos post in August last year. That one is by Rang De and you can see it here: https://starsparklex.blogspot.com/2023/08/dance-videos.html This cover is by Indian choreographer Sonali Bhaduria, from LiveToDance with Sonali and was uploaded in January 2022. It's a shorter video.   For more on Pushpa and to watch the official Oo Antava Mawa video, check out my Tollywood Videos Round-up 2 post from September 2023: https://starsparklex.blogspot.com/2023/09/tollywood-videos-round-up-2.html Pushpha 2...
