Lana Del Rey granted temporary restraining order against man who stole her car

Published

on

Lana Del Rey has been granted a temporary restraining order against a man she alleged stole one of her cars.

According to documents obtained by TMZ, the singer requested protection from Eric Everardo after he allegedly visited her home on at least two occasions. Del Rey claimed that he stole her Jaguar when he first turned up at her property in February.

It is said that Everardo was eventually criminally charged for the theft of the vehicle.

But the ‘Blue Banisters’ star accused the man of returning to her house earlier this month. On that occasion, Everardo allegedly left a bad at her gate with a disturbing letter inside in which he expressed his desire to see her again.

Additonally, Lana Del Rey claimed that the man had also contacted her sister twice via text message between February and July 2022. It is unclear as to how he obtained her mobile number.

Del Rey said that she doesn’t know Everardo, and fears for the safety of herself and her family.

A Los Angeles judge granted the temporary restraining order, and has ordered the man to stay at least 100 yards away from Del Rey, her brother, and her sister. He is banned him from contacting them in any way.

A court hearing is due to take place next month.

During an interview with MOJO last year, Del Rey explained how she felt that fame could be “dangerous” at times.

Back in 2018, Lana Del Rey spoke out after a man who stalked her was sentenced to serve one year in prison.

Michael Shawn Hunt, who was 43 at the time, was intercepted a block away from the singer’s Amway Center show in Orlando, Florida that February after the police received a tip about a potential kidnapping.

He was caught carrying a knife, according to the City of Orlando Police Department.

In 2016, a man was sentenced to nearly three months in prison for breaking into Lana Del Rey‘s home. That same year, the star was granted a restraining order against two Russian fans who reportedly threatened her and screamed at her in public.

While in 2015, a man was arrested for allegedly stealing two of her cars.

Radiohead to release new material in “next couple of years”

Published

Radiohead‘s drummer Philip Selway has said that the band will release new material “of some sort” in the “next couple of years”.

In January, Selway said that he and his bandmates would be meeting up early this year to start putting things in motion. “We’re going to get together at the start of [2023], and I’m sure we’re going to start looking at other ideas for what comes next,” he said.

Now, the drummer has told Prog Magazine [via MusicNews]: “We’re always talking about stuff. But in terms of an actual kind of collective project, beyond the ‘Kid A’ and ‘Amnesiac’ stuff that we’ve been doing [2021’s ‘Kid AMnesia’ reissue project and interactive exhibition], it’s kind of further down the line for us when that will happen. We’re talking about that, but at the moment everybody’s doing their own thing.

“When the pandemic happened, we’d always planned to take a veer off from Radiohead around that, so we could get on with other stuff. But that just meant that those other projects kind of grew, so we’re allowing time for all of those projects to go where they need to. But yeah, we’ll get together soon and in the next couple of years there will be something there, of some sort.”

Radiohead’s last album was 2016’s ‘A Moon Shaped Pool‘.

Elsewhere, the drummer, who recently released his second solo album under his own name, ‘Strange Dance’, revealed that he’s already working on its follow-up.

Asked if the next record is taking shape, he said: “It is, actually. You get to the end of one project and can’t see beyond that for a little while, but it’s led by the ideas that you’ve got coming as well. To do a solo record you need songs and they are starting to happen a bit more now. So yeah, I would love to.

“When I first started doing the solo stuff, I was just thinking of it as a trilogy of records and didn’t really project beyond that.

“I certainly didn’t think I’d end up doing soundtrack work or any of the other stuff. And in some ways, I guess ‘Strange Dance’ feels as though it’s completing that initial cycle. And it feels wonderful to be at that point.”

Last summer, Radiohead guitarist Ed O’Brien discussed the band’s future, saying: “It might happen, but the other thing is… it might not. And does that matter?

“There’s no Radiohead at the moment,” he added. “There’s a truth to what we do, so we’re not going to be one of those bands that gets together for the big payday.”

In other news, a mash-up of tracks by Ice Spice, PinkPantheress and Radiohead has gone viral after being shared on Twitter.

iKON’s Bobby drops music video for moody new solo track ‘Cherry Blossom’

Published

on

iKON’s Bobby has released a new solo song titled ‘Cherry Blossom’ and its music video.

Today (March 20), the K-pop idol unveiled the music video for ‘Cherry Blossom’, a track from his upcoming single album ’S.i.R’. The project, which will feature the title track ‘Drowning’, will be released tomorrow (March 21) at 6pm KST.

In the ‘Cherry Blossom’ music video, Bobby wakes up in a dim bedroom, before getting up to sing and dance to the upbeat new track as he is haunted by memories of the past. The idol grows more sullen towards the end of the visual, eventually returning to his bed in the darkness.

You were more beautiful than cherry blossoms / You lasted longer than cherry blossoms / Like cherry blossoms, you took spring away with you / More cherry than cherry blossoms, you more than cherry blossoms,” he sings in the chorus.

‘Cherry Blossom’ marks Bobby’s first solo release since he and his iKON bandmates left longtime agency YG Entertainment in December 2022. All six members of the boyband have since signed with 143 Entertainment, and will reportedly release a new album this April.

Earlier this month, iKON announced that they would soon be embarking on their ‘Take Off’ world tour, which will take place from May to September. The group will be touring East and Southeast Asia, Europe and North America as part of the tour.

Posthumous Coolio album announced, first single featuring Too $hort and DJ Wino released

Published

on

The first posthumous Coolio album ‘Long Live Coolio’ is set to be released later this year, with the first single ‘TAG, You It’ arriving ahead of the record.

The record will feature material the rapper was working on before his passing in September last year at age 59. Meanwhile, the album’s first single ‘TAG, You IT’ featuring Too $hort and DJ Wino is out now, alongside its music video.

The video, which was filmed before Coolio’s passing, sees the late rapper and Too $hort making at appearance at a boxing ring to watch a group of women tackling each other to the mat.

The ‘Gangster’s Paradise’ rapper, real name Artis Leon Ivey Jr, passed away on September 28 last year. His cause of death was never officially disclosed, though his manager told TMZ that medical services at the scene said Coolio died of cardiac arrest.

Following his passing, Coolio’s ‘Gangster’s Paradise’ re-entered Billboard’s Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart and Hot Rap Songs chart, while also making a comeback in countries like Greece, Belgium and the UK among others. It was the first time the track had re-entered the charts since 1996.

Alongside ‘Gangster’s Paradise’, the rest of Coolio’s catalogue also saw an uptick on streaming services, with Billboard reporting a rise of 264.3 per cent overall in the two weeks following his passing.

Futurama producer David X. Cohen has also revealed that Coolio will feature posthumously in the show’s upcoming return. Prior to his death, the rapper recorded lines for his character, Kwanzaa-bot, as well as a freestyle rap.
