Maybe I’m a little bit confused. Not quite sure how Taylor Swift looked at the track list on Lover and decided that “ME!” would be her lead single. With 18 songs to choose from, I can officially confirm that she has an album’s worth of singles; minus the 3 that she previously released. Yes, I…

Using The Pain For Good | FLETCHER Music Review
I tend to gravitate towards artists that are unapologetically themselves, so imagine my pure delight when I stumbled upon FLETCHER last Friday. I happened to listen to her new EP at work and I was immediately captivated. Her EP is named, you ruined new york city for me, and it’s every bit of dramatic that…
‘Lover’ Single Review
I’ll be blunt: I’ve been extremely underwhelmed by all of Swift’s latest releases. It is my humble opinion that the antics, the Easter egg hunts and the speculating all take away from the music. Taylor Swift has already proved that she can create hit song after hit song, so to reduce her album releases to…
The Perfect Coming of Age Film | ‘Real Women Have Curves’ Review
Feels almost criminal that it was yesterday, as a 29-year-old woman, that I watched Real Women Have Curves for the first time. I have no idea how I managed to avoid it for my entire adolescence, but alas the film has finally made it into my life. Maybe the film came at the perfect time,…
Erasing Memories | ‘Euphoria’ Review
So picture this: Mercury is in retrograde, your PMS comes early, your depression decides to show up and you know what you have? The worst July of your life. Euphoria has quickly become my latest obsession and while Zendaya and the rest of the cast has blown my mind the entire series, it was on…
Taylor Swift ‘The Archer’ Single Review
I’ll admit that the narrative of this latest Taylor Swift era is completely lost on me, maybe she has spoiled us. It could be that her thematic releases in the past have me accustomed to a certain package that I expect from Taylor. However, her latest creative endeavor keeps missing the mark with me. Most…
Crying In Public | ‘The Farewell’ Movie Review
Do you know how difficult it is to suppress a sob while sitting in a room full of strangers? I knew The Farewell would be special; the moment I ran into the trailer on Twitter, it was after my chest felt a bit tighter that I knew I would love it. Yet, I still found…
Laughing Through the Tears | Michael Bublé Live at the Staples Center
I’ve been a casual listener of Michael Bublé’s music for a few years but I never quite found the time to get invested in it. So I wasn’t sure of what to expect when I was invited to his concert at the Staples Center. Sure, I knew that I would be in complete awe of…
Shawn Mendes Shakes The Ground at the Staples Center
Two quick things: 1. I will only witness shows at the Staples Center from private suites because now that I’ve experienced it, there’s no turning back 2. Nothing is scarier than experiencing an earthquake while sitting in a sold out Staples Center, a venue which holds 21,000. Though I try to stop myself from being…
The Official Beanie Feldstein Fan Club | ‘Booksmart’ Movie Review
I knew that I would love it the moment that I saw the first trailer. Booksmart was a wonderful movie-going experience and I demand that it plays at all High Schools. The film follows best friends Amy and Molly, on their last day of High School. They both spent their entire High School experience striving…
