Roberts Well, Harry is playing in New York. You can
see Louis Tomlinson. He's returning to Australia this October with
his How Did We Get Here? World tour tickets and
more information ticker tech dot com dot Au.
Speaker 2 (00:21):
Well look to me, I'm taking over. Yeah, okay, So,
and the reason why I am is there's a young singer.
Her name is Stella. Lefty and Kip actually came across
the same video I believe I did. And this is
a little while ago I seen it. But this song,
it's funny. She's she's a country pops with indie folk.
Speaker 1 (00:41):
Y style music can style.
Speaker 2 (00:44):
Yeah, and it's beautiful like when you hear it. But
this she's blown up because of a song that she released.
But it wasn't a song. It was twenty maybe fifteen
seconds of a song she was thinking about writing. So
oh wow, she wrote it. She she released this on
a TikTok. It became famous before the song was even finished.
(01:05):
Did it blow up on your TikTok?
Speaker 3 (01:06):
Houston?
Speaker 1 (01:07):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (01:07):
Yeah, on a train back to Boston and we're jumping
the gun and I'm telling you, baby, this is far
on TikTok. The only thing I sang was like the
first half of the chorus, so nothing else existed. So
by the time the video was doing well, I was like,
there's no song.
Speaker 2 (01:26):
You have success on an incomplete song. So did you
just go I'm just gonna do this, put it up
for something to post, or did you think I'm gonna
do this and if it works, I'll continue to grow it.
Speaker 3 (01:34):
I was honestly like, I just had a second to
kill before I was going on a date, and I
was like in Nashville to be writing, and I hadn't
written anything that day, and so I was like feeling
like I needed to be more productive, and so I
was like, I'll just sit at the piano and just
see like whatever comes out. I really just posted the
song because I was just in this phase where I
was just posting all the time. Crazy crazy.
Speaker 2 (01:55):
Yeah, now she's Yeah, she's now doing a tour Stromian Bird.
It's cool. It's got post Malone, Bali, Zamama, Cooper Allen
still left the brad Cox.
Speaker 1 (02:05):
You got like that.
Speaker 2 (02:06):
The singers in this list are huge, and yeah, you
think in like four maybe four months, her career has
gone from being just this young girl singer songwriter to
now performing with some of the greatest singers.
Speaker 1 (02:17):
At Bocarina on Sunny Coast. Yeah, she's going to be
in Ohio, in Canada, in Florida and in bok Arena,
Good Robin and in the morning Spider Man Brand New
Day is breaking more and more records and it's for
one reason and one reason only, And I'll tell you
what that is next. But Ariana Grande has spoken out.
(02:39):
We've been talking heaps about her the last couple of days.
Photos have come out of her looking incredibly thin, and
there's been a huge amount of social media speculation. She's
announced she's stepping back. She's withdrawn from certain things that
she was supposed to do next year. Anyway, she hasn't
spoken up until now, but in a three night run
in Chicago, she finally addressed with her fans. Now, this
(03:01):
is quite difficult to hear, but basically she's saying it
isn't because of the backlash that she's chosen to step back.
Speaker 3 (03:11):
That negativity has ruining things for you.
Speaker 4 (03:14):
But I just have to say that could.
Speaker 1 (03:16):
Not be more of the so negativity more from the truth,
Like it's not it's I'm fine, it's not about that.
I'm just choosing to have a break. She has done
a lot, She's had world too. Is she's that wicked?
You know, like there's been a lot, a.
Speaker 2 (03:32):
Lot of stress as a Disney kid.
Speaker 5 (03:35):
She's been busy since she was a child. Yeah, exactly right,
I have a breakthare.
Speaker 1 (03:38):
Spider Man Brand New Day has surpassed the one billion globally.
Just extraordinary in six days of release, almost time. It
is absolutely amazing. It is the fourth movie of the
year to earn a billion dollars, following Super Mario Galaxy
Movie which was one point zero zero one Mike, which
(04:00):
was the same as Mario Toy Story five which was
one point zero six seven billion, and even The Odyssey's
done really well with nine hundred and twelve million. For
a film like that, it's doing extraordinarily well. But yeah,
and do you know why? There is one reason, and
one reason only why this movie has done.

here last Thursday night, on the Wednesday it opened in
LA and all the reviews that I was getting through
were amazing. That does not happen. No true, So for
all of the reviewers to go and I got like
a ninety three percent on the Tonado.

a big star and so Zendaya. He doesn't get the
kid out in Odyssey.

but like he keeps the mask on, but yeah, he
gets he gets the full twelve pack, right.
