Duran Duran. Ms. Cole, 54, who described fandom as “basically obligatory” when she was in high school, hadn’t listened to the band much since. That is, until she met Ms Moore, also 54, and a lifelong “Duranie,” as die-hard fans are called. “Beth and I spent hours picking apart their videos,” and analyzing what she described as “pornographic images of women.” (Nevertheless, she remains a fan.) Their fervent discussions inspired Ms. Cole to write her master’s thesis on the subject.

Why the controversial mullet is having a moment
  + stars: | 2024-01-17 | by ( Fawnia Soo Hoo | ) edition.cnn.com   time to read: +10 min
Long hair, don’t careThe “modern day” mullet largely originates from David Bowie’s genre-defining and gender-norm defying persona, Ziggy Stardust, Glasscock said. “People from the Continental Congress wore what we would read as a full metal, 1992 mullet,” said Glasscock. (“Hockey hair” was, meanwhile, a popular synonym for mullet at the time, given its prominence among players and fans.) Devin Yalkin/Courtesy A24While playing Kerry Von Erich in “The Iron Claw,” White also wore his dynamic, sweeping mullet off-set — but not entirely by choice. “I was like, ‘I’m sorry, here’s a ponytail holder.”But that dedication may have played an integral part in a mullet revival kicking off 2024.

Gordon Lightfoot’s 10 Essential Songs
  + stars: | 2023-05-02 | by ( Rob Tannenbaum | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +1 min
Bob Dylan once named Gordon Lightfoot one of his favorite songwriters, and called the musician “somebody of rare talent” while inducting him into the Canadian Music Hall of Fame in 1986. On Dylan’s 1970 album “Self Portrait,” he even recorded Lightfoot’s “Early Morning Rain,” and the respect was mutual — Lightfoot listened carefully to Dylan’s songs, which instilled in him “a more direct approach, getting away from the love songs,” he once said. In an expansive career that drew from Greenwich Village folk and Laurel Canyon pop, Gordon Meredith Lightfoot Jr., who died on Monday at 84, was embraced by a diverse group of musicians: Elvis Presley and Duran Duran, Lou Rawls and the Replacements. “Lightfoot’s is the voice of the romantic,” Geoffrey Stokes of The Village Voice wrote in 1974. “We’re capable of sensitivity and poetry.” In the process, Lightfoot became one of the most successful recording artists of the 1970s.
REUTERS/Dylan Martinez/FilesFeb 1 (Reuters) - Late pop singer George Michael, 89-year-old country music icon Willie Nelson and rapper Missy Elliott are among the first-time nominees announced on Wednesday for the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame's class of 2023. Of the 14 nominees on this year's list, eight are first-timers, including singers Sheryl Crow, Cyndi Lauper and the late singer/songwriter Warren Zevon, alongside rock band Joy Division/New Order and rock duo The White Stripes. Singer Kate Bush, heavy metal band Iron Maiden, rock band Rage Against the Machine, rock group Soundgarden, R&B vocal group The Spinners and hip hop group A Tribe Called Quest are returning nominees. “These artists have created their own sounds that have impacted generations and influenced countless others that have followed in their footsteps,” said John Sykes, chairman of the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame Foundation. She did promise to earn the honor and has announced a forthcoming record with covers of rock classics entitled "Rock Star."

About 400 Pollen employees were camped out in Mendocino County, California, for five straight days of partying. Two former Pollen employees told Insider that they recalled the assistant telling them about Callum's inappropriate comments at the time. (The Pollen representative said Callum and Bedi didn't date at Pollen or at any other company connected to Pollen. Out of 360 events Pollen announced over the past 12 months, 39 were canceled, the Pollen representative said. (The Pollen representative said that "out of hundreds of thousands of customers, fewer than 100 people were moderated" online.)
London CNN —Andy Taylor, guitarist with British New Romantic group Duran Duran at the height of their fame, is battling stage four prostate cancer. Taylor, who did not join his former bandmates John Taylor, Simon Le Bon, Roger Taylor and Nick Rhodes at the Class of 2022 celebrations due to ongoing treatment, wrote a letter to mark the occasion. Simon Le Bon, John Taylor, Andy Taylor, Roger Taylor and Nick Rhodes of Duran Duran Derek Storm/FilmMagic/Getty Images“There’s nothing that comes close to such recognition. You can dream about what happened to us but to experience it, on one’s own terms, as mates, was beyond incredible,” Taylor wrote in the message relayed by Le Bon. According to the American Cancer Society, about one in eight men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer during his lifetime.
Duran Duran guitarist Andy Taylor was not able to attend Saturday night's Rock & Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremony, where the band was honored, due to a setback in a stage 4 prostate cancer diagnosis, according to a statement from the English band. "Just over 4-years ago I was diagnosed with stage 4 metastatic prostate cancer," the letter read. "Recently I was doing okay after some very sophisticated life extending treatment, that was until a week or so ago when I suffered a setback," Taylor wrote. Taylor said it was an honor to even be nominated for the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, let alone inducted, and addressed his bandmates of 44 years as his brothers. Duran Duran was the first act inducted at the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles Saturday night.
Duran Duran stumbled but stayed sophisticated. The four acts found very different ways to celebrate on Saturday night, but all can now forever say they’re Rock & Roll Hall of Famers. “Rock & Roll is not a color,” he said. “One, I know, is that I’m a rapper and this is the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame.”He’s only the 10th hip-hop artist among well over 300 members of the Hall of Fame. “I‘ve been rockin’ rockin’ rockin’ rockin’ since the day I was born,” she sang, “and I’ll be rockin’ to the day I’m gone.”She closed the night leading an all-star jam of her fellow inductees on her country classic “Jolene.” Le Bon, Benatar and even Judas Priest singer Rob Halford took a verse.
In an interview with Pollstar magazine published Thursday, Parton said she plans to do occasional "special shows" but doesn't think she'll tour again. When it comes to her fervent fans, Parton thanks technology for keeping her so connected to them without touring. “You can do special shows in special ways. I will be doing some of that.”Parton also said she's working on a rock ’n’ roll album and hopes to have some legends of the genre sing with her. "When I got nominated for the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, I thought 'Well, no better time to do it,'" she told Pollstar.
Fostul model, pe numele său adevărat Ivor Neville Kamen, a devenit cunoscut în 1985, după ce a apărut într-o reclamă la marca de jeans Levi's 501, în care era văzut într-o spălătorie, purtând doar boxeri în timp ce mai multe femei îl urmăreau cu privirile, scrie Agerpres. Reclama, pe acordurile piesei „I Heard It Through The Grapevine” a lui Marvin Gaye, a contribuit la creşterea vânzărilor mărcii şi l-a propulsat pe Kamen la rangul de „sex simbol”, fapt ce a atras atenţia divei pop Madonna. Fascinată de carisma şi de vocea frumoasă a modelului britanic, după cum a declarat ea atunci postului BBC, Madonna i-a permis lui Kamen să înregistreze una dintre piesele ei rămase în afara albumului „True Blue”, iar artista a asigurat partea de backing vocals. Cu piesa „Each Time You Break My Heart” compusă de Madonna, Nick Kamen a ajuns pe locul 5 în topul muzical din Marea Britanie şi s-a clasat pe primul loc în topurile din Austria şi Suedia cu hitul „I Promised Myself” din 1990. Ştirea decesului său a suscitat emoţie în lumea muzicii, John Taylor, de la Duran Duran, asigurând că modelul a fost „unul dintre cei mai amabili şi mai afectuoşi bărbaţi” pe care i-a cunoscut vreodată.
