Olivia Rodrigo is cooking up something sweet ahead of the premiere of her new single “Bad Idea Right?,” which drops Friday (Aug. 11) at midnight along with a music video.
In a mysterious flyer shared with fans via Rodrigo’s official text message newsletter, the 20-year-old pop star teases something happening at “Olivia’s place,” citing a fake address — 823 BLUE BLVD, SOMEWHERE IN THE SUBURBS, CA” — and a phone number. If you call the digits (which happens to be the same number as her Heartbreak Hotline), a garbled voice answers: “Olivia Isabel Rodrigo, where are you? I’m stuck in line for the bathroom and it’s taking forever, so just text me.”

The poster was also shared in an Instagram Story by Universal Music, the parent company of Geffen, Rodrigo’s label. Her official fan account also shared it on Twitter, writing, “premiere party tonight. olivia’s place (liv’s youtube channel). 8p pt. see u there.”

Another clue that the poster is in regards to a virtual music video premiere gathering: The bottom left of the flyer reads “directed by Petra Collins,” Rodrigo’s go-to music video mastermind. Collins headed the Grammy winner’s most recent video, “Vampire,” as well as the visuals for the singles “Good 4 U” and “Brutal.”

“Bad Idea Right?” is expected to arrive at midnight ET on Friday (Aug. 11), meaning that the virtual gathering at 8 p.m. PT will start one hour before the song drops. Following her chart-topping single “Vampire,” it’ll mark the second song to be released off Guts, her September-slated sophomore album.

“the song is pretty different from vampire & shows another side of GUTS that’s a little more fun & playful,” Rodrigo wrote about “Bad Idea Right?” shortly after announcing it as the next single. “cannot wait to share it with you alllllll. love to ya always!”

The “Drivers License” singer previously teased the “Bad Idea Right?” music video on TikTok, sharing a silly dance clip with her friends: fellow pop singer-songwriter Tate McRae, former Bizaardvark costar Madison Hsu and actress Iris Apatow. “bad idea right? video out on fridayyyyy,” she captioned the video, adding, “featuring my favorite girlz.”

Houston, we’ve got a new Harry Styles music video. The 29-year-old pop star dropped the adorable visual for “Satellite” Wednesday (May 3), making it the latest of his Harry’s House tracks to get the single treatment.

Directed by Styles’ go-to music video collaborator Aube Perrie, the project follows the perspective of a Wall-E-esque robot, who works as an automatic vacuum cleaner backstage at one of the musician’s concerts. We see him cleaning the floors of a green room as Styles leaves to perform, and again when he accidentally rolls onstage while the star is singing mid-show — just to be expelled from the concert by a security guard.

In search of adventure, the little vacuum exits the venue and explores the world outside, eventually reuniting with Styles at the end to go stargazing.

The video comes just two days after Styles confirmed that “Satellite” would be the fourth single off his May 2022 album Harry’s House, following 15-week Billboard Hot 100 chart-topper “As It Was,” “Late Night Talking” and “Music For a Sushi Restaurant,” all three of which were turned into music videos of their own. On Monday (May 1), the Grammy winner’s affiliate social media accounts unveiled majestic posters teasing the new music video, featuring a Mars Rover-type robot looking at constellations and exploring rocky terrain.

The “Watermelon Sugar” singer is currently gearing up for the European leg of his ongoing Love on Tour, which has been running since September 2021, and is expected to conclude after nearly two years of shows this July. In late March, he wrapped up the trek’s Asian leg with two nights at Japan’s Ariaka Arena in Tokyo.

Tones and I just keeps dancing. On Wednesday (April 26), the music video for the Australian indie sensation’s smash single “Dance Monkey” officially hit 2 billion views and counting on YouTube.

The amusing clip finds the artist otherwise known as Toni Elizabeth Watson donning old-age makeup and a gray beard to play an old man who escapes from a nursing home with his gaggle of buddies for a wild day out on the golf course.

“They say dance for me, dance for me, dance for me, oh-oh-oh/ I’ve never seen anybody do the things you do before/ They say, move for me, move for me, move for me, ay-ay-ay/ And when you’re done, I’ll make you do it all again,” she sings as the group goes joyriding in golf carts, throws back beers at the clubhouse and boogies on the putting green.

The grooving single was an instantly viral hit when Tones and I unleashed it back in 2019 as the second single from her debut EP The Kids Are Coming. While it charted at No. 4 on the Billboard Hot 100, the song hit No. 1 in more than 30 countries around the world and also earned the pop singer her first top 10 hit on Billboard‘s Pop Airplay, Hot Rock & Alternative Songs and Dance/Mix Show Airplay charts.

Since then, Tones and I released her debut studio album Welcome to the Madhouse, collaborated with Macklemore on “Chant,” and contributed “I Made It” to the soundtrack of the 2023 biographical drama True Spirit.

Ed Sheeran unveiled a first look at his upcoming single “Boat” as well as its watery music video on Monday (April 17).

“‘Boat’ is the first song I wrote and finished for Subtract, it’s where it all began, and a good way to kick off the album,” the pop star wrote on Instagram. “I’m gonna release the full song and video this Friday, hope you love it as much as I do x.”

In the preview of the track’s seaside visual, Sheeran’s car careens off a cliff into the ocean below — only for the singer to emerge from the water soaked but still standing as he sings, “But the waves won’t break my boat,” over tender acoustic guitar.

While “Boat” was the first song the British pop troubadour created for – (Subtract), it will follow lead single “Eyes Closed” as the second offering from the upcoming album, which is set to arrive in full on May 5 as the final chapter of the mathematically themed albums he began with 2011’s + (Plus).

Announcing – (Subtract) back in February, Sheeran described the studio set as “opening the trapdoor into my soul,” adding, “For the first time, I’m not trying to craft an album people will like, I’m merely putting something out that’s honest and true to where I am in my adult life.”

To coincide with the album’s release, Sheeran will also release The Sum of It All, a four-part docuseries debuting exclusively on Disney+ on May 3.
