☆ Lil Nas X sends pizza to ‘homophobic protestors’ outside his Boston concert
  + stars: | 2022-09-19 | by ( ) www.nbcnews.com   time to read: +1 min
Lil Nas X is a master of attracting attention, from his eye-popping red carpet looks to his devilish music video for “Montero (Call Me by Your Name),” which sparked outrage from conservative media. It is perhaps no surprise, then, that a religious group showed up outside his Boston, Mass., concert Sunday night to protest the provocative artist. Lil Nas, an expert at disarming those who criticize or spew hatred toward him, decided to capitalize on the moment with a kind gesture. Lil Nas captioned the video: “Update: they didn’t want the pizza but I accidentally fell in love with one of the homophobic protestors.”The “Industry Baby” rapper is currently on his “Long Live Montero” tour, his first string of headlining dates. Starting Nov. 8, Lil Nas will go overseas to wrap up the tour’s last leg in Europe, which ends on Nov. 17 in Barcelona, Spain.
☆ Tony Bennett at 90: ‘I Just Love What I’m Doing’
  + stars: | 2016-12-14 | by ( John Marchese | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +2 min
“I can’t believe that all this is happening,” Mr. Bennett said. (It didn’t hurt that his last NBC special, for his 80th birthday, won seven Emmy Awards.) “Tony Bennett Celebrates 90: The Best Is Yet to Come” is built around a September concert at Radio City Music Hall that featured singers such as Stevie Wonder, Michael Bublé, Leslie Odom Jr. and Lady Gaga saluting him. There are interview segments with Mr. Bennett scattered in, and a show-within-a-show comedy sketch starring Alec Baldwin, who reprises his “Saturday Night Live” impersonation of a blithely clueless and hyper-ebullient Tony Bennett. ”Indeed, it seems quite fun to be Tony Bennett.

☆ Lady Gaga Brings Thrill to Tony Bennett’s Immutable Style
  + stars: | 2015-06-22 | by ( Stephen Holden | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +1 min
An irresistible force and an immovable object: that would be Lady Gaga and Tony Bennett on Friday evening at Radio City Music Hall where they sang more than 30 standards, separately and together, before a respectful multigenerational audience that tilted older. The immovable object was Mr. Bennett, a living monument at 88, who, when he moved across the stage, proceeded slowly, cautiously and with dignity. With his customary grace and humility, Mr. Bennett embodied the patriarch of American popular song he has been for the last two decades. Around him fluttered that irresistible force, Lady Gaga, 29, an eccentric living bauble, in a succession of extravagant showgirl outfits and wigs. The chemistry between the performers in this Cheek to Cheek tour is noticeably different from the cuddly granddad and granddaughter intimacy of their videos.
