Ozzy will move back to the UK along with his wife Sharon citing he doesn’t want to die in America.

Sharon says, “It’s just time. America has changed so drastically. It isn’t the United States of America at all. Nothing’s united about it. It’s a very weird place to live right now.”

Ozzy said:

“Everything’s f**king ridiculous there. I’m fed up with people getting killed every day,” the 73-year-old continued. “God knows how many people have been shot in school shootings. And there was that mass shooting in Vegas at that concert… It’s f**king crazy.”

Ozzy added, “And I don’t want to die in America. I don’t want to be buried in f**king Forest Lawn,” referencing the California cemetery favoured by celebrities.

Sharon and Ozzy are scheduled to move back to their home country in February 2023.

Tara Lynn Rye dropped her fourth single Moonlight. The track mixes all genre together – dark pop, folk, and rock – think Kim Dracula.

Tara says, ““I wanted to write an anthem for the women who have awoken so they know they aren’t alone. It’s easy to feel crazy in a world that will gaslight you. The patriarchy is in everything we have learned and once you wake up to it, something changes in you. It’s validating yet painful to know you are not the problem. There are other women standing in their power, just like you. Wouldn’t you rather be called all the names in the book, living a life that’s your own, rather than dampening or diluting yourself? Find those people like you and find your peace. The world is mad. Don’t worry about the people who are still asleep.”

Tara just wrapped up a performance at the Peppermint Club in LA.

Virtual Rapper FN Meka got dropped by his label Capitol Records after a backlash around stereotyping and appropriation.

Capitol Records offered an apology to the black community.

The official statement:

“CMG has severed ties with the FN Meka project, effective immediately. We offer our deepest apologies to the Black community for our insensitivity in signing this project without asking enough questions about equity and the creative process behind it”.

Capitol Records infuriated the black community with the signing of the virtual rapper.

The statement from “Industry Blackout”

“While we applaud innovation in tech that connects listeners to music and enhances the experience, we find fault in the lack of awareness in how offensive this caricature is. It is a direct insult to the Black community and our culture. An amalgamation of gross stereotypes, appropriative mannerisms that derive from Black artists, complete with slurs infused in lyrics.

“This digital effigy is a careless abomination and disrespectful to real people who face real consequences in real life. For example, Gunna, a Black artist who is featured on a song with FN Meka, is currently incarcerated for rapping the same type of lyrics this robot mimics. The difference is, your artificial rapper will not be subject to federal charges for such.”

The Industry Blackout continued to blast Capitol Records:

“For your company to approve this shows a serious lack of diversity and resounding amount of tone deaf leadership, this is simply unacceptable and will not be tolerated.

“We demand this partnership be terminated, a formal public apology be issued, FN Meka removed from all platforms. Furthermore, all monies spent by Capitol Records and Factory New for this project will be allocated to charitable organizations that directly support Black youth in the arts, as well as marketing budgets for Black artists signed to Capitol Records. We look forward to your response and compliance.”

Capitol immediately dropped the virtual rapper following the official statement from Industry Blackout.

Intelligence Platform from Q Scores, the industry standard for measuring celebrities’ star power suggests Will Smith’s numbers sharply dropped months after the Academy Awards ceremony, when the actor smacked Chris Rock on live television.

Before the outburst, Smith ranked among the top rated actors in Q Scores’ semiannual surveys which polled nearly 1,800 U.S.consumer, placing him alongside Tom Hanks and Denzel Washington. Smith’s positive Q Score plummeted from 39 to 24, which “a very significant and precipitous decline.” according to Henry Schafer, executive VP of Q Scores.

Sometimes there is no second chance, no second time.

At the 94th Academy Awards, actor Will Smith walked onstage and slapped comedian Chris Rock across the face during Rock’s presentation for Best Documentary Feature. The slap was in response to Rock making a joke about Jada Pinkett Smith’s shaved head. Smith returned to his seat and shouted profane remarks at Rock, who responded congenially and completed his presentation.
