Chappell Roan went from the “Pink Pony Club” to the country club on “Saturday Night Live,” surprising fans by going country in both look and sound for her second number of the show, the premiere of a brand new song, “The Giver,” that marries C&W with LGBTQ. “I get the job done,” Roan sang in the refrain of the new song, which shares a theme with “Femininomenon” in making the argument that pleasing a woman is sometimes (or always?) “All you country boys saying you know how to threat a woman right,” Roan said during a spoken word aside in the song — “Well, only a woman knows how to treat a woman right.

Halloween is still days away, but online, “Gay Halloween” is in full-force. The posts all begin with text that reads, “I hate gay Halloween, what do you mean you’re dressed as” with a description of the costume. The “I hate Gay Halloween” phrase began to pick up traction in recent years as a joke about the obscurity of queer Halloween costumes, according to Know Your Meme. One of the earliest references to “gay Halloween” costumes is from 2022, when one X user posted, “Gay Halloween costumes are like ‘oh this?

CNN —More than 800 years after her birth, Joan of Arc — a patron saint of France — remains an object of not just historical, but cultural fascination. Humble beginningsOne of five children in a peasant family in Domrémy, in north-eastern France, Joan was born in the year 1412. The Amazonian image of Joan of Arc in armor is perhaps the most recurrent one in popular culture, inspiring thousands, if not hundreds and thousands, of similar depictions. It also provided the inspiration for Carl Theodore Dreyer’s silent film The Passion of Joan of Arc (1928) starring Renée Jeanne Falconetti. She is also a cautionary tale for young women, a brutal warning of the fickle nature of celebrity and a symbol of morality and strength.

Pop star Chappell Roan revealed in a TikTok video Wednesday that she’s voting for Vice President Kamala Harris in November, though she stopped short of endorsing the Democratic presidential candidate. The singer-songwriter’s announcement followed an intense and dayslong online backlash from her liberal fanbase. Others called her a “closet Republican.”In response to the backlash, Roan released a TikTok video Tuesday saying she was not voting for former President Donald Trump, though that message did little to quell the fan fury. Visibly frustrated with her critics, Roan on Wednesday tried to clear the air for good on where she stands on the 2024 election. “Team PopFlop is sincerely apologising for the post regarding Chappell Roan’s issues with endorsement,” the account, which has over 36,000 followers, said.
