One Liners: Marilyn Manson, Lil Yachty, Christine And The Queens, more

Nick Cave has spoken about what to expect from the next Bad Seeds album, and if there’s a chance of more music from Grinderman any time soon.Earlier this year, the Australian musician was criticised by a fan for losing the anger that was present in much of his earlier work.In a post on his blog The Red Hand Files, Cave shared a note from the fan who asked: “When did you become a Hallmark card hippie? Joy, love, peace. Puke! Where’s the rage, anger, hatred?”In response, Cave said the death of his son Arthur was behind the shift in his energy. “Things changed after my first son died,” he wrote.

Only nine directors have ever won the Palme d’Or twice. Francis Ford Coppola did it in the ’70s with The Conversation and Apocalypse Now. Ruben Östlund joined the club last year after following The Square with Triangle of Sadness. But this year, there is a very real possibility that, at 86, Ken Loach may go above and beyond that by winning a third Palme for his new film, The Old Oak. Loach first won in 2006 with the historical Irish drama The Wind That Shakes the Barley, then doubled up in 2016 with I, Daniel Blake, a caustic study of Britain’s healthcare crisis. After that came Sorry, We Missed You, a no-less withering look at the punitive gig economy. Like the latter two films, The Old Oak is set in the North East of England and completes an unofficial trilogy, this time with a slightly more optimistic bent. Like all of Loach’s output since 1996, it was written by Paul Laverty, and the pair sat down with Damon Wise to discuss the film’s themes of humanity and social responsibility.

Marta Balaga Finnish actors Alma Pöysti and Jussi Vatanen have been making names for each other for a while now. But playing leads in Aki Kaurismäki’s latest film, “Fallen Leaves,” was a whole different story. “He has always been that household name, even when I was growing up on a farm in the 1980s, kicking a ball against our cowhouse. It’s crazy that now, we are here together. Also, he is really just a regular guy. Funny and he actually talks a lot,” Vatanen tells Variety in Cannes. A household name himself thanks to the “Lapland Odyssey” franchise, he has been exploring dramatic roles in “Forest Giant” or “The Man Who Died.”

Ariana Madix, the woman scorned at the center of the reality show cheating scandal that rocked a nation, has worn more than one revenge outfit since news broke that her husband Tom Sandoval had been having a months-long affair with her best friend and their mutual co-star Raquel Levvis. There was the “1-800-BOYS-LIE” sweatsuit she wore to the Season 10 reunion taping. And then the firetruck red, skin-baring jacket-skirt set she changed into for the reunion episode (which Andy Cohen dubbed a “revenge dress” that Sandoval didn’t “deserve to look at.”). The highly anticipated finale, which aired on May 17 (now streaming on Peacock) proves that she’s been stunting ever since the news broke. In one scene, shortly after the Scandoval news broke, she shimmered in a Ramy Brooke metallic mini dress during a girls night out. “We’ve been riding since 7 dawns ago,” Lala Kent captioned a photo she posted of the “Pump” crew — Madix flanked by Cortney Erin, Scheana Shay, Charli Burnett and Katie Maloney.
