Miley Cyrus’ “Flowers” was hit with a copyright lawsuit in 2024 over Bruno Mars’ “When I Was Your Man,” and the judge handling the case is unlikely to dismiss it.

What happens when a beloved pop star, a RuPaul’s Drag Race winner, a lucky fan and one piece of discarded jewelry collide? As Chappell Roan and Violet Chachki proved, that particular formula leads to online chaos.
In a viral TikTok posted over the weekend, one of Roan’s fans revealed that her roommate had a very rare piece of memorabilia — a single earring that Roan wore during her second weekend performance at Coachella 2024. “me everytime I remember my roommate caught Chappell Roan’s earring at the weekend 2 Coachella set and it just lives in my room,” the fan wrote over a video of the earring sitting in a frame on their bookshelf.
The video went so viral, in fact, that Roan herself saw it and decided to comment revealing some key context around the earring. “Ok the tea is I was very much not supposed to throw them because I didn’t realize they were violet chachki’s and she loaned them to me,” Roan wrote. “I apologized profusely& it’s fine loll but Iconic nonetheles [sic].”

Chachki, never one to waste an opportunity to create some funny drama, posted a video response to Roan’s comment, jokingly threatening to take the singer and her stylist Genesis Webb to court over the missing trinket. “This means f–king war. My long lost earring that I have been searching high and low for has been discovered by the children of the internet,” she said in the clip. “And you will pay Genesis Webb and Mx. Roan!” The caption for her video summed up her feelings: “justice for my bare lobes!!!!!”
At this point, even Webb herself chimed in, commenting on Chachki’s video by apologizing and offering to make amends. “I bend the knee, holding a plate of Swarovski crystals and cheese I can’t pronounce,” the stylist wrote. Chachki responded with a series of thinking emojis, followed by a few knife emojis.
For anyone who was convinced that the fan was in actual trouble, Chachki set the record straight in the comments — they responded to Chachki’s comment on their video saying that if the queen wanted her earring back, “we will make sure it gets back to you queen.” Chachki responded, saying they could keep the jewelry. “No diva it’s fine — Earrings are meant to be lost. Just keep supporting queer art,” she wrote with a purple heart emoji.
All the “drama” comes hours before Roan drops her much-anticipated new single “The Giver.” After initially premiering it on a November 2024 episode of SNL, Roan revealed to Country Heat Weekly that the purpose behind the track was simply not that deep. “I’m not trying to convince a country crowd that they should listen to my music by baiting them with a country song,” she said. “I just think a lesbian country song is really funny, so I wrote that.”

Justin Bieber is feeling introspective. In a vulnerable post to his Instagram Stories on Thursday (March 13), the pop star shared some raw musings about his self-esteem, confessing that he often feels “unequipped and unqualified.”
In black text over white background, Bieber began, “People told me my whole life, ‘wow Justin u deserve that.’”
“I personally have always felt unworthy,” he continued. “Like I was a fraud. Like when people told me I deserve something. It made me feel sneaky like. Damn if they only knew my thoughts. How judgmental I am, how selfish I really am. They wouldn’t be saying this.”

The two-time Grammy winner added, “If you feel sneaky welcome to the club. I definitely feel unequipped and unqualified most days.”
Bieber’s post comes as he’s been teasing that he’s working on new music a full four years after his last album, 2021’s Justice, which spent two weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard 200. The day before his message about self-worth, he posted a photo of himself recording in a music studio, tinkering with a piano.
The singer has been active on social media in recent weeks, with other past posts of note including a video of himself smoking what appeared to be a blunt or cigar while dancing and listening to Don Toliver’s “Hardstone National Anthem.” Before that, he shared a video of himself freestyling over a beat while hanging with a friend, rapping, “High like a fly guy/ I fly high like a magpie/ I go high like a bad guy.”
Both clips came shortly after a rep for Justin and his wife, model Hailey Bieber — with whom he welcomed a son named Jack Blues in August — shut down rumors that he was using hard drugs. In a statement shared with TMZ at the time, the rep called the speculation “exhausting and pitiful,” and added, “Despite the obvious truth, people are committed to keeping negative, salacious, harmful narratives alive.”
Bieber’s latest note also isn’t the first time he’s leveled with fans in a serious way in recent weeks. In February, he wrote on his Story, “It’s time to grow up. Changing is about letting go!”
“Are you tired of trying to follow all of the rules in hopes to get the results you crave?” he added at the time. “Ive found love to be more powerful than rules. I tried to follow the rules. Im not good at it … Today im letting go and remembering the weight isnt on me to change. The weight is on God. So I give all my insecurities and my fears to him this morning. Because I know he gladly takes it. Asking Jesus to genuinely help me with simply the next step today.”
