Ariana Grande addresses music leaks: ‘Disheartening and disappointing’

Ariana Grande admitted she’s ‘constantly trying to get to the bottom’ of her music leaks

Ariana Grande has conflicted feelings about her music being leaked, though she tries to focus more on the silver lining.

During her recent appearance on the Hot Ones season 23 finale, the pop star, 31, shared her thoughts and feelings about how commonplace music leaks have become.

“It’s really hard for me because it’s really disheartening and, like, disappointing, and it sucks,” the Wicked star expressed, adding that she’s “constantly trying to get to the bottom” of how people get a hold of her music before its official release.

“It’s conflicting because that is very frustrating and feels very dehumanising,” she continued, adding that “the other side is like, “But I’m so grateful to be an artist that people care about and my fans want more of me, so they are going to these extremes to steal and break in.”

At the end of the day, the Grammy-winner sits “somewhere in between being grateful to be here at all and being like, ‘But really? Come on.’”

Elsewhere in the fiery interview, Grande opened up about learning to embrace her old music — particularly ones she released as a budding artist at the age of 19/20, which she described as an “insane experience.”

She explained that some of her difficult and emotional experiences were “sort of married to some of the songs a little bit,” which made her not want to revisit those emotions.

However, “with time and therapy,” she was able to “re-embrace” the nostalgia of her old songs.

The couple joined George Clooney and his wife Amal at the Venice International Film Festival

Brad Pitt proved his commitment to girlfriend Ines de Ramon when he finally made their two-year relationship public with a red carpet debut.

According to a new report by US Weekly, the Oscar-winning actor, 60, did not make the grand gesture lightly as he walked the Venice International Film Festival red carpet hand-in-hand with Ramon, 31.

“They’re super in love,” an insider told the outlet, emphasising that the decision to go public was “a big deal” for both Pitt and Ramon. The couple also posed alongside Pitt’s Wolfs co-star George Clooney and his wife, Amal.

Another source emphasised that Pitt is “very committed to [Ines] and their future.”

Pitt and Ramon, who the source described as “hippies at heart,” have connected deeply over their shared love of art and music.

“Brad loves introducing Ines to his friends because she’s such a joy to be around,” the source shared, adding “She brings out the best in Brad.”

Moreover, De Ramon has been “a rock” for Pitt, supporting him through his ongoing legal battles with ex-wife Angelina Jolie, which have spanned custody and business disputes since their 2016 split.

Friend denies claims Meghan Markle ‘reduces grown men to tears’

This scrutiny follows the resignation of Josh Kettler

A friend of the exiled Duke and Duchess of Sussex has condemned a shocking report that portrays Meghan as a “dictator in high heels.” 

The controversial piece, published by The Hollywood Reporter, described Meghan, 43, as “Duchess Difficult” and claimed that “everyone’s terrified” of her. 

This scrutiny follows the resignation of Josh Kettler, who had been serving as chief of staff to the couple based in Montecito, just three months after starting the role in August.

It came after Josh Kettler, a consultant who had been serving as chief of staff to the Montecito-based pair, was understood to have resigned in August – after a meagre three months on the job.

One source told the outlet: “She belittles people, she doesn’t take advice.

“She marches around like a dictator in high heels, fuming and barking orders. I’ve watched her reduce grown men to tears.”

Regarding both the Sussexes, they added: “They’re both poor decision-makers, they change their minds frequently.

“Harry is a very, very charming person – no airs at all – but he’s very much an enabler. And she’s just terrible.”

The scathing article has reignited former grievances from staff about Meghan’s alleged “bullying behaviour” – which she cast aside as a “calculated smear campaign” at the time.

And now, a friend of the couple has hit out at the piece, telling the Mail that “the reporting is ill-informed and very one-sided”.

Despite the backlash from the Sussexes’ inner circle, the California couple have built a reputation for losing employees – the two are thought to have lost at least 18 members of their workforce since their 2018 marriage.

Lady Victoria Hervey told GB News that Harry has been “deprived of freedom” as he is “dependent on Meghan Markle”.

Lady Victoria told The People’s Channel that Meghan is “worried about Harry straying” – and didn’t let the prince host a party to celebrate his 40th birthday.

She said: “I think she keeps him on a really tight leash. You can see it in him… He’s deprived of freedom.

“She’s sort of his therapist and his babysitter and he’s very, very dependent on her.”

Demi Moore opens up about facing misogyny over equal pay in Hollywood

Demi Moore has recently opened up about experiencing misogyny in Hollywood over equal.

Speaking on The New York Times’ The Interview podcast, Demi recalled facing public backlash after demanding a $12.5 million salary for her role in the 1996 movie Striptease at the time.

“Well, with ‘Striptease,’ it was as if I had betrayed women, and with ‘G.I. Jane,’ it was as if I had betrayed men,” remarked the actress.

However, Demi said, “I think the interesting piece is that when I became the highest-paid actress — why is it that, at that moment, the choice was to bring me down?”

The actress mentioned, “’I don’t take this personally. I think anyone who had been in the position that was the first to get that kind of equality of pay would probably have taken a hit.”

“But because I did a film that was dealing with the world of stripping and the body, I was extremely shamed,” pointed out Demi.

While talking about equal pay at the time, the actress revealed, “It’s no different than when I did the cover for Vanity Fair pregnant,” she told the podcast, referring to the now-iconic 1991 cover shot by Annie Leibovitz.

Demi added, “I didn’t understand why it was such a big deal, why women when they were pregnant needed to be hidden?”

Meanwhile, Demi can next be seen in new body-horror movie, The Substance, which will be released in theatres on September 20.

Kensington Palace has shared a new delightful video of Prince William amid reports  of Prince Harry’s return to the UK.

Prince William has delivered a meaningful speech at Homewards Aberdeen event on Thursday.

The future King has highlighted the ‘complex societal issue’ of homelessness,  touching the lives of “far too many people” during a visit to Aberdeen.

Speaking at the event, the Prince of Wales said: “Homelessness is a complex societal issue and one that touches the lives of far too many people in our society. However, I truly believe that it can be ended.

“I created Homewards because I wanted us to look at the issue of homelessness through a different lens, to inspire a movement to prevent people from ever experiencing homelessness in the first place.”

The video of William’s visit shared on the Prince and Princess of Wales’ Instagram Story.

William has announced a significant new partnership for his Homewards project, which aims to tackle homelessness. The inclusion of the homelessness workforce in the Blue Light Card community will provide them with discounts on everyday essentials and additional perks, further supporting their crucial work.

A five-year project which aims to demonstrate it is possible to end the crisis. The initiative has so far brought its existing members over £330million in savings, improving mental well-being and offering financial support.

Alidad Moghaddam, Chief Executive Officer at Blue Light Card, said: “This workforce may not be easily identifiable as uniformed blue light workers like nurses, doctors, police, or firefighters, but we see them.”
