The dancers who filed a lawsuit against Lizzo have spoken publicly for the first time about the 'nuanced weight-shaming' they allegedly received from the singer. Arianna Davis and Crystal Williams appeared on NBC News, where they discussed the 'thinly-veiled' comments the body-positive singer would make about their appearance. "I just had this feeling that they had a problem with the way I was gaining weight and looking different and that I wasn’t 'the same' as when they first cast me", Davis says. "What I think people should take away is the fact that our experience is not an isolated experience." Sign up to our new free Indy100 weekly newsletter

The trailer has dropped for a new 'killer sloth' movie, and fans can't help but compare its parody-like nature to Cocaine Bear. Directed by Matthew Goodhue, Slotherhouse follows the story of a sorority girl who adopts a pet sloth in a bid to become more popular with the girls she lives with. However, 'Alpha' the sloth turns murderous, stabbing girls in the shower and creeping up on them in bed. It comes across as pretty terrifying, until you remember...it's a sloth. Slotherhouse lands in cinemas on 30 August 2023. Sign up to our new free Indy100 weekly newsletter

I just want to remind you that he is love. He is truth, he is the light", Quigley says in the Instagram clip. "All things work together for those that are called together according to his purpose." She has not commented on the allegations further. The Independent has reached out for comment. Sign up to our new free Indy100 weekly newsletter

The production designers who worked on Barbie have revealed the biggest challenges about bringing Barbieland to life - after nine whole months of conversations with director, Greta Gerwig, on how it should look. Sarah Greenwood and Katie Spencer were responsible for the incredible aesthetics of the dream houses. “What do you put in a house with no walls? And through these walls, you see the house next door", Spencer says. “There’s nowhere to hide. It has to look utterly gorgeous but relatable. And then there’s the scale of things… the lower the house, the shallower the rooms. You couldn’t put an awful lot in them.” Sign up to our new free Indy100 weekly newsletter

Taylor Swift has reportedly dished out over $5 million in bonuses to truckers who helped out on her Eras tour. The 50 drivers transport all of her staging from venue-to-venue across the US, and each apparently got a cool $100,000 gift from the singer. While she's been on tour since March, she still has a further 60 shows starting in February 2024, taking her across the globe. Other workers including engineers, caterers, and dancers also received a bonus, but it's not known how much. Sign up to our new free Indy100 weekly newsletter

Taylor Swift is playing her last US shows on her Eras Tour in LA this month and as you can imagine there is an unprecedented demand for tickets. For those who missed out during the chaotic Ticketmaster US ticket sales back in January, fans remain determined to hear the popstar's biggest hits and are attempting to bag last-minute tickets for the sold-out shows at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood. Originally, face-value tickets sold for $49 to $449, but according to the LA Times, tickets for the first show were on sale from $800 to a whopping $11,000 each on StubHub. Sign up to our free Indy100 weekly newsletter As the first show is due to take place tomorrow (August 3), tickets are continuing to rocket in price with the most expensive listing currently being priced at $25,677 for floor seats while a Level 1 suite is $102,070. Swifties have since been taking to social media to share their tips on how to secure face-value tickets on Ticketmaster which occasionally releases tickets last minute. @joecurtains how to get eras tour tickets day of for face value on ticketmaster: aka what I did to score floor seats only 2 hours before the show started. hoping this finds the right audience so fans can get in and beat the scalpers #taylorswift #erastour #swifttok #taylorsversion #tserastour #tickets #ticketmaster #erastourphilly #guide #howto #fyp #fypシ @Taylor Swift So who's in charge of the ticket prices? Well, there are a number of different factors at play. Promotors are the ones who officially set the prices and get money from ticket sales, but given it's Taylor Swift we're talking about she would also have a hand in choosing the venues and informing the promotor where to set prices. Venues charge a facility fee for hosting the concert and are paid by the promoters for this role, some venues have exclusive deals with certain promoters while others do not. And then there are the ticket companies like Ticketmaster who sell tickets with dynamic pricing where the price of a ticket changes according to demand - a move that has received criticism (though artists can opt out of this, as Swift did). On top of this, there is also the service fee for buying the ticket online, a processing fee that "covers miscellaneous expenses associated with online ticketing", and a facility charge for the venue to host the shows. According to Ticketmaster, input is given by the artist on the service fee and facility charge. Finally, there are the resellers who purchase tickets with no intention to attend the show but rather buy tickets to turn a profit by making listings on marketplaces like StubHub and SeatGeek. Prices can shoot up as there are no limits as to what the seller can charge. “This is a truly market-driven platform,” StubHub spokesperson Jessica Finn told LA Times. “So this is really about what sellers think that the price, the value of the ticket is, and what buyers think the value of the ticket is, and they effectively agree on it with a purchase... It’s very much a dynamic marketplace, prices go up and down and we don’t meddle with that.” A team of people or software bots can be used by the reseller to nab batches of tickets - hence why Swift decided for her UK tour to do album order presales, get fans to sign up for the general sale, and have staggered ticket sales throughout the day to try and stop bots and resellers.

Throwing bras at Drake during his concerts has become quite the trend, and it's quickly become a competition of who can shock the rapper the most with their size. Drake was left stunned initially when a 46G bra had him 'f***** up', but it was quickly topped in New York City, when a 36L bra landed at his feet. Left speechless, he had to count how many letters were in the alphabet until 'L', joking that the woman responsible needs to make herself known. Sign up to our new free Indy100 weekly newsletter

Ed Sheeran got a brutal grilling when he went to work on a Chicago hot dog truck that's known for their Karen's diner-inspired insults. The 32-year-old joined The Wieners Circle where he served up food to screaming fans who had been to his concert. “We’re gonna have Ed Sheeran here at the motherf****** Wiener’s Circle and I’m gonna teach that w***** how to make a f****** hot dog", one employee shouts. They then turn to the award-winning artist and insist: "Shut the f*** up and shove [a hotdog] up your a**". Sign up to our new free Indy100 weekly newsletter

With its eccentric jokes and bright pink scenery, Greta Gerwig’s Barbie movie was a breath of fresh air for many audiences – but it wasn’t always going to be that way. It has emerged that the director tried to get a “fart opera” scene into the film – but it didn’t make the final cut. Speaking to IndieWire, director Gerwig and the film’s editor Nick Houy said that across the three films they have collaborated on (Lady Bird, Little Women and Barbie) they have always tried to sneak in a fart joke. Sign up to our free Indy100 weekly newsletter Sadly for fans of toilet humour, none of the jokes have ever made it into the final versions of the films. Gerwig said: “We’ve always tried to get in a proper fart joke and we’ve never done it. We had like a fart opera in the middle [of Barbie]. I thought it was really funny. And that was not the consensus.” “It was in the wrong place, too,” Houy added. “We need to work it into a more significant narrative moment next time.” Neither said where the “fart opera” would have fit into the film. Houy said: “We were just, like, ‘Let’s put it in front of people and see how they react.’ Everyone’s different and every screening’s different and we’ve definitely learned, over the years, that you really have to let things have their fair chance and then act accordingly. Once you know it’s dead, you have got to get it out of there.” Barbie was one of the most hotly anticipated movies of recent times, starring Margot Robbie, Ryan Gosling, Kate McKinnon, Michael Cera, Dua Lipa, Will Ferrell, America Ferrera, Emma Mackey, Hari Nef, Sharon Rooney and more. On its opening it didn’t disappoint, becoming the biggest first weekend for a film by a female director, grossing $162m over its first three days. Have your say in our news democracy.
