14 h. ago Taylor Swift’s Charli xcx hit job misses the point – and underscores her tedious obsession with conflict

Sixteen months after Charli used Brat to air her anxieties about Swift, the US star’s graceless response is a missed opportunity for growth – and betrays her vengeful sideCharli xcx released her sixth album, Brat, on 7 June 2024. Within seconds of it streaming, fans had deduced that the song Girl, So Confusing was probably about Lorde: all it took was the line “people say we’re alike / They say we’ve got the same hair”, riffing on a 2014 video where Charli and an interviewer did a bit about people confusing the two. In the song, Charli laid bare her anxieties about their relationship and admitted: “Sometimes I think you might hate me.” Exactly two weeks later came the Girl, So Confusing Featuring Lorde remix, brokered by the pair over text and voice note in the days after Brat came out. On Lorde’s verse, she owned up to ghosting on dinner dates with Charli and exposed the self-hate, projection and industry-fuelled sense of pop-girl-on-pop-girl rivalry that had made her shy away from...

15 h. ago Strange Journey: The Story of Rocky Horror review – insiders’ account of cult musical 50 years on

Stars including Richard O’Brien, Susan Sarandon and Tim Curry line up to recount the endearing origin story of the perennial crowdpleaserNot to be confused with the unauthorised, warts-and-all fan history Sane Inside Insanity: The Phenomenon of Rocky Horror, this is an insider’s account all the way, starring the stage-show-turned-cult-film’s writer and co-star Richard O’Brien. Heck, it’s even directed by O’Brien’s son, Linus O’Brien, a fact you couldn’t really miss given interviewees frequently allude cosily to Richard as “your dad”. Given its provenance, it’s no surprise that no one here says, as they do in the rival documentary, that the 1975 film adaptation is a “shitty fucking movie” – but nevertheless there’s honesty on display, mostly about the slapdash origins of the project and the later mistakes made, including the huge flop when the original stage production tried to transfer from Los Angeles to Broadway.But even the most diehard Rocky Horror sceptic would have to concede ...
