Music has helped Carly Waddell heal following her divorce from Evan Bass in more ways than one.
“I’ve been a singer my whole life. When I wasn’t in a show, I was waiting tables until my next show. So I didn’t really know who I was besides that. And then I became a wife and then I became a mom and I kind of lost that part of me,” the 37-year-old Bachelor alum exclusively told Us Weekly on the “Here for the Right Reasons” podcast. “Before I got divorced, when I knew I didn’t wanna have any more children, I was like, ‘I wanna get back to me.’ And when I asked the question, ‘Who am I? What do I love?’ It’s music, it’s singing, it’s writing.”
Waddell’s first single, “Your Friends Like Me More,” and music video drop on Monday, May 1, and despite the sassy lyrics — “I don’t care who you’re dating now / Your friends tell me she’s a big step down / I ain’t keeping score, but you should know your friends like me more” — she promises Us that she’s not throwing shade at Bass, 40.
“I’m not Taylor Swift,” Waddell told Us with a laugh. “And I love that she writes about her life, but I was coming out of a divorce and that’s literally the last thing I wanted to think about. People can say whatever they want — they’re going to anyway. But no, I didn’t want that. I remember when I sat down with these writers and they were like, ‘We should write about your divorce.’ And I was like, ‘No, ew. I don’t wanna even think about that. I want the fun part of me to come back out.’ I was like, ‘I want Shania Twain songs!’ I knew people were gonna [assume], especially when, you know, some of these songs like ‘Make a Guy a Jerk,’ but there are guys out there that are jerks, you know? It’s not about Evan! People can interpret however they want to — they’re

Fall Out Boy have reflected on the 20th anniversary of their debut album ‘Take This To Your Grave’, describing it as “lightning strike accident of a record that absolutely changed my life”.The US pop-punk band — Pete Wentz, Andy Hurley, Patrick Stump and Joseph Trohman — released their studio debut on May 6, 2003, two years after they formed in the Chicago suburbs.“About 21 or so years ago, as I was applying to colleges I would ultimately never go to, Fall Out Boy began as a little pop punk side project of what we assumed was Pete’s more serious band Arma Angelus,” Stump posted to the band’s social media this week.“We were sloppy and we couldn’t solidify a lineup, but the three of us (Pete, Joe, and I) were having way too much fun to give up on it.”He explained that they were “really rough around the edges”, adding: “As an example of how rough, one of my favorite teachers pulled me aside after hearing the recording that would become “Evening Out With Your Girlfriend,” and tactfully said “What do you think your best instrument is Patrick? Drums. It’s drums.

Beyoncé could clear over $2billion (£1.6billion) from her upcoming ‘Renaissance’ tour — over half a billion more than Taylor Swift is set to make on her ‘Eras’ tour.The impressive statistics were reported by Forbes yesterday (May 8), and suggest that the ‘Break My Soul’ singer may have one of the highest-grossing tours of all time by the time she completes the run of live dates.Estimates are based on the most optimistic assumptions regarding the number of fans purchasing tickets, the high ticket prices and the amount of merchandise sold at each live gig.As per the report, ‘Renaissance’ could gross between $275 million and $2.4 billion from tickets alone by the time it ends in September. If it were to crack the $2.4 billion mark, it would mean that the tour earned well above the $1.9 billion predictions made for ‘Eras’.Currently, the average ticket price for Beyoncé’s shows stands at $700 (£554) — something the publication assumes fans are more than willing to pay due to the “pent-up desire” to attend concerts following the COVID-19 pandemic.The ‘Love On Top’ singer has also reportedly taken a different approach to her merchandise than seen by Swift, which may increase her chances of surpassing the profits made in their respective tours.As discussed by David Herlihy, a Northeastern University Teaching Professor and Music Industry Program Coordinator, Swift advertises much of her merchandise online and is “likely to sell out 30,000 pieces of merchandise at an average price of $80 per item” at each of her concerts.

Chris Willman Senior Music Writer and Chief Music Critic Taylor Swift’s recent song “Midnight Rain” lived up to its name when it was performed Sunday night at Nashville’s Nissan Stadium, except that it was actually after 1 a.m. local time when it finally came up in the set list. The finale of her hometown three-night stand was pushed back hours from its scheduled start time due to lightning strikes near the downtown area; once it did finally get underway after 10 p.m., the second half of the three-and-a-half-hour set was marked by a steady downpour, hitting Swift as hard as it did the audience in the roofless venue, before the show finally wrapped up just after 1:35 a.m. The general crowd mood, at that drenched wee hour: delirious. (Except for the small minority of fans who gave up and went home before the show got started.)
