Olivia Rodrigo’s On-Stage Wardrobe Malfunction Ended Up Being A Close Call: ‘I Almost Flashed You Guys’

Olivia Rodrigo just played a massive sold-out show at London’s famed O2 Arena yesterday (May 14), and at one point, she faced a pressing issue.

As Rodrigo performed “Love Is Embarrassing,” she nearly had an embarrassing moment of her own. At one point, the back of her top came undone. As she continued the song, one of her dancers attempted to help her out as Rodrigo carried on, and the situation eventually ended without incident. As the New York Post notes, when the song was over, Rodrigo told the audience, “I almost flashed you guys but it’s OK now.”

All in all, the show seemed to be a success: In a positive review of the performance, NME noted, “It’s the songs that pick at the deepest wounds that resonate with tonight’s crowd. ‘Vampire”s stunning build from a piano ballad to jaunty clap-back to the people who should know better is one of many howl-along moments. The raw regret of ‘Drivers License’ brought her to this venue a few years ago, but now, it’s sung with both the lived experience and confidence that comes only from someone who’s moved on to even bigger and better things; there’s no denying that Rodrigo has certainly done that and will continue to do so.”

What Time Will ‘Outer Range’ Season 2 Come Out On Prime Video?

Prime Video (Amazon)

Prime Video (Amazon) has been experimenting with their release format on certain shows, which has caused a bit of confusion. The streaming service hasn’t revealed its rhyme or reason for deeming certain shows (The Boys, Mr. & Mrs. Smith) as weekly releases and others (Fallout, Swarm) as full season binges, but it’s best to simply roll with the rollouts and not worry about the format too much.

With that said, it’s nice to at least know what is coming to plan TV schedules accordingly. Outer Range‘s second season arrives this week, so there’s no time like the present to ask the relevant question here.

What Time Will ‘Outer Range’ Season 2 Come Out On Prime Video?

Go time will officially happen on Thursday, May 16 at 12:00am Greenwich Mean Time. In the U.S., that works out to Wednesday at 8:00pm EST. Expect all seven of this season’s episodes to arrive at once, so you can watch more timey-wimey adventures of Josh Brolin’s Royal Abbott, who would probably really like to take a nap instead of dealing with having to figure out how to save the ranch. The audience, however, should enjoy this season much more than its characters. Even Autumn has a rough time, for a good while (which makes sense after that auto crash). The show, however, remains a total trip.

Outer Range heads back into bizarro territory on May 16.

Indie Mixtape 20: Hana Vu Traces The Peaks And Valleys Of ‘Romanticism’

hana vu featured
Andrew Yuyi Truong

Hana Vu is a romantic. On her new album, the appositely titled Romanticism, she traces the peaks and valleys of romance. Right after the Los Angeles songwriter embraces the optimism of dreams, she finds comfort underneath wilted trees, considering life to be some kind of “big disease.” It doesn’t feel like whiplash so much as it does a candid portrayal of Vu’s experiences.

It’s an astute, self-aware record that reckons with both the joys and sorrows of love’s promises. Alongside co-producer Jackson Phillips (AKA Day Wave), Vu gives her interiority a bigger stage, with sweeping guitars and propulsive drums that lift her songs to vertiginous new heights.

Following the record’s release this month, Hana Vu sat down with Uproxx to talk about why she wants to visit Cypress by herself, her love of Solange, and why she doesn’t like following people on social media in our latest Indie Mixtape 20 Q&A.

What are four words you would use to describe your music?

Girl, singing, yelling, guitar.

It’s 2050 and the world hasn’t ended and people are still listening to your music. How would you like it to be remembered?

I think in 2050 I will still be alive, and I hope to not be forgotten just yet because that is kind of soon. Hopefully I can be remembered by the omnipresent statues of me in every major city center.

Who’s the person who has most inspired your work, and why?

I am probably most inspired by my friends and family. The people of whom I am closest and can very deeply empathize with really color my life with perspective and richness. We are only what we know and what we’ve done.

Where did you eat the best meal of your life, and what was it?

I eat a lot of really good meals, and it’s hard to think of what is best. I will say that my favorite place in SoCal to go to if I have the chance is Jus’ Poke in Redondo Beach.

Tell us about the best concert you’ve ever attended.

Best show I’ve ever seen was when I saw BLACKPINK at Coachella 2023. I don’t really attend a lot of big pop shows, so it was really a stimulation overload. Haven’t seen anything like it, though.

What song never fails to make you emotional?

Every song makes me emotional, but when I am being particularly emotional, I have to listen to “Cranes in the Sky.” Nothing feels like “Cranes in the Sky.”

What’s the last thing you Googled?

The last thing I googled was Alicia Keys’ birth chart, and what I found out is that she is a Libra moon.

Where’s the weirdest place you’ve ever crashed while on tour?

I don’t know if I have ever crashed anywhere ‘weird’ per se, but I have definitely crashed at some pretty gross houses. One time I stayed in a house that was so decrepit, and I convinced myself that I was going to get abducted and murdered, so I actually did not sleep. So I don’t know if that qualifies as crashing.

What’s your favorite city in the world to perform, and what’s the city you hope to perform in for the first time?

My favorite city to perform is New York! It’s kind of like playing in LA but your whole extended family and people you went to high school with aren’t there because I am not from there. I would like to play a show in Buenos Aires mainly because I just want to go there.

What’s one piece of advice you’d go back in time to give to your 18-year-old self?

I would probably tell myself to get my license because I didn’t really try until I was like 20. I probably wasted so much time and energy trying to get around LA on foot or bus.

What’s one of your hidden talents?

I don’t have very many talents, so the ones I do have are very much on display. When I was a kid I used to yo-yo and stuff though, so maybe that.

If you had a million dollars to donate to charity, what cause would you support and why?

I don’t really even know. I wonder why causes require charity to exist when so much money is misplaced. Can I put a million dollars into the rehabilitation of society? If so then that.

What are your thoughts about AI and the future of music?

I’m not really thinking about it. Music is for people. As long as one has a soul, you will need to hear music made by a person.

You are throwing a music festival. Give us the dream lineup of 5 artists that will perform with you and the location it would be held.

Ok so my dream line up is Whitney Houston, Journey, Solange, Luiz Bonfá, and Ariana Grande, and it would be on a cliff by the ocean.

Who’s your favorite person to follow on social media?

My favorite person to follow is no one. I actually have everybody muted on Instagram, so it just shows me videos of lizards and otters and stuff. So maybe my favorite are the accounts that are posting that wildlife stuff.

What’s the story behind your first or favorite tattoo?

My favorite tattoo is my tattoo that says I <3 LA. I got it because I <3 LA.

What is your pre-show ritual?

Usually I tweak out and pace around and hum to myself before a show. Mainly, I pretend not to be nervous or beside myself in order to function.

Who was your first celebrity crush?

My first celebrity crush was probably Justin Bieber.

You have a month off and the resources to take a dream vacation. Where are you going and who is coming with you?

I want to go to Cypress by myself. I mainly want to swim around. Or somewhere very vast and beautiful for me to swim around by myself.

What is your biggest fear?

I don’t really think about fear or know if I have any. Fear is kind of like a you-know-it-when-you-see-it sort of thing, like when you watch criminal minds and stuff. But existentially, probably like being destitute for eternity.

Romanticism is out now via Ghostly International. Find more information here.

Kylie Jenner’s Canned Cocktail Is Sure To Be A Hit… But Is It Any Good?

kylie jenner sprinter
Merle Cooper/Sprinter Vodka Soda

As festival season continues and a blazing hot summer approaches, a cool, refreshing drink is always in order. Over the past five years, seltzers and canned beverages have seen a boom in popularity at pool parties, outdoor concerts, and conventions. Ready-to-drink cocktails (RTDs) and spiked seltzers like White Claw, Truly, and Ranch Water have made for fun beverage options, as they are light, refreshing, and pair nicely with days spent in the sun. One of the newest entries in the RTD space is Sprinter — a canned vodka soda that packs on the fruit flavor without tasting overly synthetic.

Sprinter was founded by Kylie Jenner, who developed the beverage with beverage development expert Chandra Ritcher over the course of the past year. Now, the Kardashians and Jenners may be polarizing figures — but when they have a hit, they have a hit. There’s Kim Kardashian, with her Skims athleisurewear, which has been received well by fitness enthusiasts; Kendall Jenner, whose tequila has surprised every critic (and is championed often by Uproxx); and now Kylie.

But with all of their money and access, the family does seem to have good taste and avoids cutting corners. Which is a wordy way of saying that Sprinter is going to be a hit. Or, to be more precise, it was always going to be a hit — but it’s good enough to have staying power.

Sprinter comes in four different flavors — black cherry, peach, grapefruit, and lime. In all four of those flavors, the fruit flavor and the sweetness are far more noticeable than the vodka flavor. Meaning that if you down a few in a hurry they just might sneak up on you.

Here’s out rundown of all four flavors:

Grapefruit

Sprinter

Our personal favorite was the grapefruit flavor, which boasts a palate reminiscent of Squirt soda. It’s delicious and bright — perfect for poolside.

Black cherry

Sprinter

The booze factor is probably most noticeable in the black cherry flavor, making it the go-to for the RTD cocktail purists. A slight vodka kick with a faint fruity aftertaste, Jenner and Ritcher crafted a flavor that will satisfy even the most particular of consumers.

Peach

Sprinter

Perhaps the most approachable flavor was the peach flavor. This one is the sweetest of the bunch, with a taste comparable to a peach Fanta, diluted with La Croix. The aftertaste is similar to that of Haribo Peach Rings. A little sweet for a vodka aficionado, but an ideal seltzer for people who really aren’t into seltzers.

Lime

Sprinter

Another simple flavor is the lime variant, which tastes a bit like Sprite with an edge. Of the four flavors, the lime is the most balanced between sweetness, fizz, and booziness. With a San Pellegrino-esque aftertaste, the lime is probably the most sophisticated of the bunch. Though, to be fair, it was my least favorite.

It’s not hard to understand why there may be an aversion to Sprinter. After all, the Kardashians and Jenners have a monopoly on nearly every industry — make-up, fashion, television, tequila, and now, canned cocktails. Sure, your first thought may be “What the f*ck does Kylie Jenner know about spirits?” but with backing from Ritcher, whose resume boasts over 20 years of beverage alcohol industry experience, and a PhD in molecular biology, she’s done her homework, and has delivered a promising product.

At 4.5% ABV and 100 calories per can, Sprinter is one of the lighter canned vodka sodas on the market right now. With no added sugars or gluten, Sprinter won’t sit too heavy while you’re swimming or dancing the weekend away at festivals. And — regardless of what you think of the Kardashian-Jenner empire — it’s freaking good. That’s what matters most.

‘Breaking Bad’ Creator Vince Gilligan Is Back In New Mexico Working On His New Show With Rhea Seehorn

Vince Gilligan has returned to New Mexico to begin working on his new show. The still-untitled Apple TV+ series isn’t set in the Breaking Bad-verse, but it does star one of the Emmy-snubbed leads of Better Call Saul: Rhea Seehorn, who played Kim Wexler. Filming began in Albuquerque on Monday, May 13, according to KOAT.

“I keep returning to the Land of Enchantment for the beautifully cinematic landscape and to continue working with the best crew ever,” Gilligan said. “They’ve been making me look good for seventeen years now, and I figure, why fix it if it ain’t broke?” The project will employ over 1,400 New Mexico residents, including 500 crew members and more than 100 principal actors.

Gilligan has previously teased that the Apple TV+ series has “no crime and no methamphetamine,” and that “the world changes very abruptly in the first episode, and then it is quite different. And the consequences that that reaps hopefully provide drama for many, many episodes after that.” The show also has a “sci-fi element to it.” He added, “It’s going to be fun and different. I have no prediction as to how folks to react to it — whether they’ll love it or hate it, or somewhere in the vast in-between. But I know it’s a story that interests me, and Rhea will be playing a very different character than she played on Saul.”

Vince, you had me at “starring Rhea Seehorn.”

Benny Blanco Talks Having Kids And Selena Gomez: ‘I Don’t Know A World Where It Could Be Better Than This’

We’re coming up on the one-year anniversary of Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco’s relationship, as the pair first started dating in June 2023. Blanco has of course spent some time thinking about his future, and his vision includes children, as he conveyed in a May 14 interview with Howard Stern.

When Stern speculated that Blanco doesn’t “have room for kids” in his life, Blanco pushed back enthusiastically, saying that having children is his “next goal.” He added, “I have a ton of god kids, I got a ton of nephews. I love being around kids.”

Stern then jokingly tried to get Blanco to propose to Gomez on air, and after laughing it off, Blanco continued, “When I look at her, I do say… I’m always just like, ‘I don’t know a world where it could be better than this.’”

In an April interview, Blanco revealed that it took him a while to realize that he had fallen for Gomez, saying, “I was the last one to know. It’s crazy how your partner could just be sitting there the whole time, right in front of your eyes, and you don’t even notice, and then you have that clueless moment where you’re like, ‘Wait, I’m in love.’”
