A couple of years ago Amyl And The Sniffers vocalist Amy Taylor was a guest judge on Drag Race Down Under, her home country’s spinoff of RuPaul’s Drag Race. On the latest episode of America’s favorite drag competition show, Taylor not only served as guest judge again, but two of the episode’s contestants did their lip sync portion to Amyl And The Sniffers’ “Jerkin’.”

It’s been a big week for PinkPantheress, who made a surprise appearance as a contestant on the BBC trivia show The Weakest Link Saturday night. The show’s premise is that the group of contestants take turns answering general knowledge questions, collectively trying to answer as many consecutive questions as possible in a row. At the end of each round, the “weakest link” of the team is voted out. I won’t spoil how the episode ends, but from the clips going around online, it looks like Pink did well; her fellow contestants included comedians Alex Brooker and Harriet Kemsley, choir director Gareth Malone, and Love Island alum Luca Bish. See for yourself below.

It’s been almost three years since Lana Del Rey’s last record, Did You Know That There’s A Tunnel Under Ocean Blvd. That’s an appropriate amount of time, but the singer started teasing its followup in 2024, when she announced Lasso, slated for release that year. She released the Quavo collab “Tough,” gave several updates, got married to alligator tour guide Jeremy Dufrene, then renamed the LP The Right Person Will Stay and gave it a release date of May 21, 2025. She shared “Henry, Come On,” postponed it indefinitely, then shared “Bluebird.” In August 2025, she said the album would be called Stove, and she was aiming to release it at the end of January. Now she’s back with another update.

In December, Ca7riel and Paco Amoroso were supposed to share their new album Top Of The Hills. Shortly after its release, the Latin trap duo postponed it, saying they “got swept up in a level of exposure, pressure, and success that we didn’t know how to handle, and we made hasty, wrong decisions.” Now, the pair is announcing a new record called Free Spirits, though this time the announcement is coming from Sting in a joke wellness industry infomercial.

Last weekend, Turnstile won their first Grammys, taking home trophies for Best Rock Album and Best Metal Performance. The triumph happened shortly after former Turnstile guitarist Brady Ebert made some inflammatory comments about the band on social media, claiming that Turnstile’s anti-ICE statement was just “pandering to their audience” and that no one in the group “cares at all about ethics or social issues in general.” He also accused them of misusing charity funds. Now, following the drama, Ebert’s new band the S.E.T. has kicked him out.
