| An Ode to ‘MOOD 4 EVA,’ the Best Song on Beyoncé’s New Lion King Album - Vulture Posted: 19 Jul 2019 12:00 AM PDT  Run Blue Ivy her check! Photo: Chris Pizzello/Invision/AP/Shutterstock Beyoncé Presents: The Lion King is truly the gift that keeps on giving. This summer alone we've gotten Beyoncé and her daughter-manager Blue Ivy Carter frowning at the film's U.S. premiere (probably because the Disney check hadn't cleared yet). We've gotten Beyoncé's first real live interview in years. We've gotten her song and music video "Spirit." We've gotten Beyoncé smiling at Meghan Markle, and Jay-Z giving the duchess a very safe church hug. (We have also gotten a lot of people issuing pointless, weightless reminders that The Lion King remake is not "all" "about" "Beyoncé," to which I say: The hell it's not!) First thing Friday morning, Beyoncé Presents: The Lion King presented yet another gift: The Lion King: The Gift — her companion album for the film — and specifically the song "MOOD 4 EVA." Could Angelina Jolie's Maleficent cheekbones slice me open from five-head to feet? Yes. Would I let Dan Stevens as the Beast leave me on read? Unfortunately. How ready am I for Halle Bailey as Ariel? Extremely. But nothing could compare to "MOOD 4 EVA," which raised me from my slumber and had me dancing around my apartment until 1:30 in the morning. "MOOD 4 EVA," my friends, is a near-perfect song. On The Lion King: The Gift, Beyoncé has curated a collection of music from black and African-American artists. Blue Ivy makes an appearance, as do Jay-Z, Pharrell, Tekno, Mr. Eazi, Burna Boy, Tierra Whack, WizKid, Major Lazer, 070 Shake, and Childish Gambino. (It is worth noting that Jon Favreau's Lion King soundtrack could only secure the vocals of Donald Glover; I imagine Beyoncé said, and I'm paraphrasing here, "On my album we will hit the notes — Childish Gambino or nothing.") The Gift's highlight is the DJ Khaled (???) and Beyoncé–produced "MOOD 4 EVA," where Beyoncé chews us up, spits us out, and reminds us that if we need to recover, maybe the Ramada Inn has a vacancy? Because we live in a country that does not have nationalized health care, and we don't have Blue Ivy managing our finances. Beyoncé's hardest bar, her greatest line, her sickest burn, is just her reciting her government name: "I am Beyoncé Giselle Knowles-Carter," releasing every syllable with a snarl, like a threat and a promise all at once. (Obviously, she follows that by listing her royal résumé: "I am the Nala, sister of Yoruba / Oshun, Queen Sheba, I am the mother.") Beyoncé on "MOOD 4 EVA" is the mother I never had. (To both my actual mother and Laurie Metcalf in Lady Bird: Please don't read this.) She is the sister everybody would want. She is the friend everybody deserves. I don't know a better person. I don't know a better person! Jay-Z and Childish Gambino have a pair of minimal contributions, sure, but this is Beyoncé at peak Beyoncé: Why would you try her? Why would you bother? Blue Ivy locked her mother in the studio and said, "You better come up with something so I can cash this Disney check." (The only imperfect thing about "MOOD 4 EVA," it should be noted, is the goofy way Donald Glover as Simba says "Nal-augh?" on the Nala-Simba interlude that immediately follows "MOOD 4 EVA." That is, incidentally, not a mood I want for even a little bit, not even at all.) But "MOOD 4 EVA" is the second part of a one-two punch: Before Beyoncé demands sirens and goose bumps and diamonds, she coos on her latest Kendrick Lamar collaboration "Nile." (The two last united on Lemonade's "Freedom.") Here are things I know about the Nile: It is the longest river in the world. It is in northeastern Africa. It flows north. But most importantly, Beyoncé has it running through her body. One day, Blue Ivy will give us a fuller, longer version of "The Nile," which currently clocks in at less than two minutes. I imagine Blue's just waiting to see what we clowns can pull together for Beyoncé Presents: The Lion King's first weekend gross.  |
| Harry Styles 'Respectfully Declines' A Role In The Live-Action Little Mermaid - Spin1038 Posted: 14 Aug 2019 02:16 AM PDT Harry Styles turns down the Little MermaidDisney are going to have to keep looking for their Prince Eric for the Little Mermaid remake because Harry Styles wants no part in it. A source tells E! News that Harry has, 'respectfully declined the offer.'
It appears casting for the live action remake of the Little Mermaid is in full swing. They've already confirmed that Halle Bailey will play Ariel in the new version. And it's reported that Melissa McCarthy is in line to play her evil Aunt Ursula. The rumours regarding Harry Styles taking over as Prince Eric however, are false. A source tells E!, 'While [Harry] is a fan of the project he has respectfully declined the offer.' Meanwhile, Chrissy Teigen says she's, 'thirsty to be in the little mermaid,' and her fans are all for it.
Get to know ArielHalle rubs shoulders with some of the biggest names in the music industry, including Queen Bey herself. She and her sister Chloe are both amazing singers and have their own R&B group called Chloe x Halle. Back in 2003 they uploaded a cover of Beyonce's Pretty Hurts to YouTube and it amassed over 16 million views. It caught Beyonce's attention which resulted in a record deal for the sisters. Music SuccessThe pair went on to release their first studio album in 2018 titled The Kids Are Alright. It was nominated for 'Best Urban Contemporary Album' at the 2019 Grammy Awards.
They were later given the opportunity to open for Beyoncé on her US tour. The duo even played support for the icon at her Croke Park gig in Dublin three years ago.
The live action remake of The Little Mermaid will begin production in April 2020.  |

| Posted: 20 Jul 2019 12:00 AM PDT   HOLLYWOOD, CALIFORNIA - JULY 09: Chloe Bailey (L) and Halle Bailey attend the World Premiere of Disney's While The Little Mermaid's Ariel might be the youngest of seven singing mermaids, it turns out Halle Bailey, the future live-action Ariel, is the younger sister of just one singing superstar, Chloe Bailey. But, much like the original Disney film, Halle and her sister have been harmonizing together for some time now (in their sister pop-R&B duo Chloe x Halle and not under the sea). Chloe and Halle were born in Atlanta and raised in Los Angeles. Chloe, who is 21, is just about two years older than Halle. They rose to fame when they made their YouTube debut at the ages of 13 and 11 with their own covers of pop songs. Even more amazing? Their first post was a cover of Beyoncé's "Best Thing I Never Had." It was actually their cover of Beyoncé's "Pretty Hurts" that skyrocketed their names to the top of the YouTube charts. As a result of this YouTube viral sensation, the sisters were signed to Beyoncé's management company, Parkwood Entertainment, in 2015. Their debut EP, Sugar Symphony, was released in 2016, and the Beyoncé moments just kept on coming. The sisters made appearances in Beyoncé's visual album, Lemonade, and went on to be her opening act for the European leg of The Formation World Tour. And just like that, Chloe x Halle were a hit. In 2017, they wrote and recorded The Two of Us. In 2017, the two decided to add acting to their list of impressive skills when they were added to the cast of the TV series Grown-ish. (They even recorded the theme song.) When asked if it was difficult to play Jazz and Sky (twin track stars) on the show, the sisters said on their YouTube channel that it wasn't difficult to play twins because they already have that "twin mentality" because they're best friends. The two like to go hiking, ride bikes, watch Netflix, and head to the beach, which they share with their fans on Instagram. When it comes down to it, though, music is their passion. It's evident in every song they release and every video they post on YouTube. Halle's casting announcement was made on July 3, and director Rob Marshall has no doubt she will live up to the role. "After an extensive search, it was abundantly clear that Halle possesses that rare combination of spirit, heart, youth, innocence and substance - plus a glorious singing voice - all intrinsic qualities necessary to play this iconic role," said Marshall in a statement, according to The Hollywood Reporter. Production is set to start in April 2020, and we are excited to see what other stars are announced for the live-action version. Is it just us or would Ryan Gosling make the perfect King Triton? Just saying.  |
