Taylor Swift may be nominated for Album Of The Year at the 2022 Grammys thanks to her album Evermore, but she’s now no longer named in the category for Olivia Rodrigo’s Sour. A few weeks after the 2022 Grammy nominations were announced, the Recording Academy has now removed Swift, Jack Antonoff, and St. Vincent’s names from Rodrigo’s nomination.

Swift, Antonoff, and St. Vincent were all credited songwriters on Sour, despite not actually ever taking part in the writing process. Rodrigo credited them because she interpolated Swift’s song “Cruel Summer,” a song which appeared on the album Lover, while writing her second single “Deja Vu.” But because the three musicians didn’t directly have a hand in making the album, the Recording Academy has opted to remove them from the Sour nomination, per a statement given to Billboard:

“During the submission process, the Academy received credits from the label for the track ‘deju vu.’ Last week, we received the correct credits from the label that recognize Annie Clark, Jack Antonoff and Taylor Swift as songwriters of an interpolation on the track, ‘deja vu.’ In keeping with current Grammy guidelines, as songwriters of an interpolated track, Clark, Antonoff and Swift are not nominees in the album of the year category for Sour. Antonoff and Swift are nominated in the category for Swift’s album, evermore.”

Back in February, a hellish ice storm devastated Texas, and Ted Cruz briefly stopped sh*tposting long enough to hop on an airplane and flee to sunny Cancun while his dog, Snowflake, stayed at home, looking sad and staring out the window. He couldn’t possibly have provided a worse look, and now that the Lone Star State is staring down another winter (with extreme weather becoming a more frequent occurrence everywhere), people would like to know what Texas — which operates on ERCOT’s grid, separated from the rest of the U.S. – intends to do about the situation.

Well, Ted Cruz wants everyone to know that he’s on the case. After Gov. Greg Abbott inaccurately blamed wind turbines for the frigid blackout, Ted talks about wind power and more in an episode of his Verdict podcast-thing. He tweeted out a clip from this episode while posing this question: “What are my ideas for an alternative option for the power grid?” It’s… something, and it involves Bitcoin miners.

CNBC fills in some blanks (whew), and Ted’s point is a bit muddy in the above clip. Essentially, this has to do with Bitcoin consuming a lot of energy in the first place, and at an October event, Ted claimed that this doesn’t have to be the case. Rather, “The perspective I’m suggesting is very much the reverse, which is as a way to strengthen our energy infrastructure.” How so? By making a Bitcoin miners into buyer into the electricity market, which means that they’ll have a vested interest in powering off and saving electricity when a crisis looms during peak demand:

Crypto enthusiasts believe the fix to this problem is actually to add another electricity consumer into the mix — a buyer who will take as much power as they’re given, whatever the time of day, and are just as willing to power down with a few seconds’ notice. These flexible buyers are bitcoin miners.

“If you have a moment where you have a power shortage or a power crisis, whether it’s a freeze or some other natural disaster where power generation capacity goes down, that creates the capacity to instantaneously shift that energy to put it back on the grid,” Cruz said of the ability of bitcoin miners to shut down their operations within seconds.

Yet CNBC also talked to an advanced grid services expert, Ben Hertz-Shargel, who points out that, for sure, bitcoin miners are definitely “a strain on the grid, not a help” because they increase the overall load on a system that needs fixing (and needs to increase overall capacity, no matter what). The full CNBC article goes deep on the subject, and ERCOT appears to be keen to explore the Bitcoin mining proposal. It’s actually a very complicated and confusing subject, and when it comes to Ted’s involvement, one can’t help but wonder if he’s simply trying to make everyone forget about Cancun. Not gonna happen.

The Portland Trail Blazers finally made the decision to fire president of basketball operations Neil Olshey on Friday, who had been under investigation for misconduct after allegations of him berating and cursing at employees as well as making inappropriate comments to a female employee.

That investigation meant the Blazers were able to fire Olshey for cause with two years left on his deal, but the timing still seemed odd that the organization allowed him to oversee what was a critical offseason for the team. Damian Lillard had made his frustrations with the Blazers known after their latest first round exit from the playoffs, wanting roster upgrades that Olshey insisted weren’t needed. Instead, Terry Stotts was fired and Olshey hired Chauncey Billups to be the team’s next head coach, believing their defensive woes would be solved by a coaching change rather than a major roster shakeup.

The results through a quarter of the season have proven that belief incorrect, as Portland is the NBA’s worst defensive team. With Olshey now out, it’s fair to wonder if the Blazers will take Lillard’s frustrations and request for roster changes a bit more seriously. According to The Athletic’s Sam Amick and Shams Charania, Lillard still wants Portland to make a splash move, with a reported desire to play alongside Sixers disgruntled guard Ben Simmons.

Lillard intends to give the Trail Blazers organization time to find its next leader of basketball operations. But beyond the front office component, the face of the franchise still wants significant changes to the roster. Multiple sources have told The Athletic that Lillard would like to play with Philadelphia 76ers three-time All-Star Ben Simmons. The Trail Blazers’ league-worst defense would instantly improve, and sharing a backcourt with a non-shooter could work given Lillard’s high-volume usage.

The Blazers have long been a popular landing spot for fans trying to project a Simmons trade, as CJ McCollum seems like the type of guard that the Sixers could very much use. However, Philly has been insistent that they’d rather trade Simmons for Lillard, rather than sending him to go play with Dame, which has been a non-starter for Portland. The report indicates the Sixers have asked for multiple picks and swaps if McCollum is the centerpiece of a Simmons trade, which the Blazers have rejected.

But with Simmons still not playing and both the Blazers and Sixers treading water around .500, it certainly would make sense for the two sides to pick up the phone and re-engage in talks. The trade that makes the most sense for both sides rarely happens in the NBA, but this has been a popular framework for a long time and at this point it makes sense for both teams to at least consider doing what’s needed to get it done.

Last week, Haim shared their cover of Adam Sandler’s “The Chanukah Song,” which included updated references to people like Doja Cat and Aaron and Bryce Dessner. A footnote from that story, though, was that the sisters not-so-subtly teased a tour. Indeed, fans didn’t have to wait for long to see that come to fruition, as this morning, Haim announced that they’re going on tour in 2022.

The shared the news with a comedic video set to the Lizzie McGuire Movie classic “What Dreams Are Made Of.” As for the tour itself (dubbed “The One More Haim Tour”), it goes down in North America between April and June and will feature support from Faye Webster, Waxahatchee, Sasami, Princess Nokia, and Buzzy Lee.

Who would have thought Lil Uzi Vert was such a romantic? The “XO Tour Llif3” rapper has been dating City Girls rapper JT for some time, and TMZ reports that for JT’s birthday, Uzi rented out Nickelodeon Studios Park at the American Dream Mall in New Jersey. The couple and around 20 of their friends reportedly spent the day enjoying rides — the theme park includes a roller coaster and more. — with Uzi also giving his girlfriend a brand new McLaren. While the car was the more expensive gift, at around $300,000, the theme park trip wasn’t cheap — according to TMZ, it’s $50,000 to rent it out after hours.

Uzi is no stranger to making big splurges, though. Earlier this year, the Philadelphia rapper caused a stir (and became the subject of a thousand Avengers memes) when he purchased a huge pink diamond (allegedly worth $24 million) and got it embedded in the middle of his forehead. Unfortunately, the piercing wasn’t the most secure one in the world; it was apparently pulled out by fans at Rolling Loud Miami when Uzi jumped into the crowd. He said he still had possession of the diamond, so it wasn’t a total loss.

Lil Uzi fans have been impatiently awaiting his new project, The Pink Tape, the follow-up to 2020’s Eternal Atake, but it looks like they’ll have to hang on for a little longer as he delayed the tape past its original release date to make sure “it won’t suck.”

Keeping up with new music can be exhausting, even impossible. From the weekly album releases to standalone singles dropping on a daily basis, the amount of music is so vast it’s easy for something to slip through the cracks. Even following along with the Uproxx recommendations on a daily basis can be a lot to ask, so every Monday we’re offering up this rundown of the best new music this week.

This week saw a slew of terrific year-ending collaborations between Ariana Grande and Kid Cudi as well as Juice WRLD and Justin Bieber. Yeah, it was a great week for new music. Check out the highlights below.

Ariana Grande and Kid Cudi — “Just Look Up”

Grande and Cudi expanded their IMDb pages this year by appearing in Don’t Look Up alongside Leonardo DiCaprio and Jennifer Lawrence. Along with their on-screen roles, the pair also came together on a song for the film, which, at least in title, has the exact opposite message, as it’s called “Just Look Up.” As for the sound, it’s a grandiose ballad that sees both artists showing off their emotional sides.

Juice WRLD — “Wandered To LA” Feat. Justin Bieber

Even though Juice WRLD tragically passed away two years ago now, new music from the late rapper has been released at an impressively regular rate. His posthumous output has included a lot of collaborations, and his latest is a Justin Bieber collaboration called “Wandered To LA.” As Uproxx’s Wongo Okon notes of the track, “The new song sees both artists wide-eyed and curious for the good and bad things that await them in the future.”

Grimes — “Player Of Games”

Get ready for a new Grimes era, because she launched one last week, declaring, “And so the BOOK 1 era begins.” That message came alongside the release of a new club-ready single, “Player Of Games.” Naturally, some speculate the song is about Elon Musk, as Grimes sings on the chorus, “If I loved him any less / I’d make him stay / But he has to be the best / Player of games.”

Khalid — “Scenic Drive” Feat. Ari Lennox and Smino

Khalid found himself in a funk this summer, as he noted of his then-in-progress project, “Creating is what keeps me from losing my mind but my passion goes away a little more every day.” Eventually, though, Khalid powered through and released Scenic Drive last week. A highlight from the project is its title track, a healthy dose of nighttime R&B that features Ari Lennox and Smino.

Ed Sheeran and Elton John — “Merry Christmas”

In recent years, Elton John’s older Christmas music has had some annual chart success, so he wanted to run it back with a new holiday tune. He recruited Ed Sheeran to help him out and together, the pair dropped “Merry Christmas.” If you’re surprised the song’s title is so simple, that’s how Sheeran felt when he discovered that basically no notable song had used it before.

Phoebe Bridgers — “Day After Tomorrow”

It’s Christmas music season, so leave it to Phoebe Bridgers to subvert expectations with her holiday song. Instead of going in the Sheeran and John direction of a classic bell-heavy Christmas tune, her contribution to the holiday season is a gloomy and gentle six-minute cover of Tom Waits’ “Day After Tomorrow.”

The National — “Somebody Desperate”

The National and its members have their fingerprints all over the new Cyrano movie. The Dessners composed the score and recently performed a song from it with Peter Dinklage on The Late Show. Matt Berninger and his wife (and frequent The National collaborator) Carin Besser also penned lyrics for the film, and The National themselves contributed a song to the soundtrack, the evocative “Somebody Desperate.”

Tierra Whack — “Stand Up”

The end of last week was kind to Tierra Whack fans: On Thursday, she announced a new project called Rap?, and on Friday, she released it. Among the highlights is “Stand Up,” which is delightfully minimal in its production and lets Whack’s deceptively catchy rhythm take over.

Cordae — “Sinister” Feat. Lil Wayne

Cordae is gearing up to drop his next album, From A Birds Eye View, but in the meantime, he’s kept his fans fed with miscellaneous drops here and there. Another one of those came last week, but it was more than a diversion, as he linked up with Lil Wayne for the groovy new single “Sinister.”

SZA — “I Hate U”

This summer, SZA decided to drop a trio of new songs on Soundcloud, and one of those, “I Hate U,” ended up gaining enough popularity for SZA to give it an official release, as she noted, “this started as an experiment on SoundCloud but y’all asked for it On streaming.” The track is a smooth tune that sees SZA flexing her vocal chops over moody production.

A small teen girl sat quietly at the end of my row, a seat between her and anyone else, as the crowd anxiously awaited the biggest musical act in the world right now, BTS, to make a brief appearance at the 2021 edition of Jingle Ball at the Forum in Los Angeles. The iHeartRadio event, put on through local pop station Kiss FM, brings the biggest stars and rising artists in pop together for an annual event, and like the 2019 edition, BTS was set to open the evening. When the music started for the 10-minute set (two songs, “Butter” and “Dynamite,” broken up with by group addressing the fans and singing “Happy Birthday” to Jin), the girl lept on top of her chair, carefully unfolding a homemade sign to wave at them, and popped out her phone to film the entire thing. When an usher calmly asked her to step off the chair, she obliged, only to get right back up moments later, the Korean pop sensations bringing out a rebellious streak generally associated with other genres.

At these kinds of events, trying to see things through the eyes of the fans is a joy. As we get older, it’s easy to forget how special it can be at a young age to see the artists you adore in person, even if it is only for a few minutes. It’s also easy to forget the time that goes into preparing for these encounters: making a sign, securing the clear bag that most venues now require, obtaining tiny binoculars (I loved that she had these) to get a better view from across the arena, feverishly posting to fan forums during the ensuing acts, and undoubtedly recounting the experience for days and even years later. And watching others in the audience absolutely losing their shit to artists like Ed Sheeran, knowing every word to every Doja Cat song, twerking for an Icy Chain from Saweetie, and witnessing the ascension of talents like Lil Nas X and Tate McRae, it’s hard not to feel heartened by the state of pop music, and for a world where we can sit in a room and enjoy them all together, again.

For BTS, who just finished an historic run at neighboring SoFi Stadium, the performance caps their most impressive year yet, and leads into one that they teased would mean more chances for the Army to see them in 2022. It was unclear if their fans knew their appearance would be so brief (I figured as much knowing how Jingle Ball typically operates, but there were gasps of disappointment when they left the stage), but their Army Bomb Light Sticks still shone brightly around the arena throughout the evening, as many of the artists made compelling cases for the Army to stick around.

Sheeran was clearly the other main event of the evening. A divisive artist in critics’ circles, it only takes a few moments of witnessing his live presence to get it. Over five songs — a couple of his recent singles, his brand new Christmas song, and classics “Perfect” and “Shape Of You” — Sheeran showed off his looping skills, a feat indie fans who’ve been to an Andrew Bird or Tune-Yards concert would be familiar with, but isn’t often seen in big spectacle pop. But this act feels different from Sheeran, someone who doesn’t need to show off his chops and techniques to win over audiences, that he still keeps it real and essentially does his entire performance live and solo (aside from keys accompaniment on “Merry Christmas”). It’s obviously not revolutionary, but it’s also enough to give credence to his bonkers big popularity.

The other biggest highlight was Doja Cat. With hits like “Say So” and “Kiss Me More,” she’s got the songs play venues of this size by herself, and she has the star power to match. Sure, the band was a little too prevelant in the mix, but her set felt like the most fully-realized short performance of the night, including putting the spotlight on her drummer for a solo and taking the time to vibe out to her own music while headbanging and flashing a huge smile. Sometimes Spotify plays don’t equate to such a strong live presentation, but Doja clearly is an artist that can succeed on all fronts. And as she likely expands that live presence in 2022, don’t be surprised if we’re not all living on Planet Her by the end of next year.

Elsewhere, Saweetie largely did a similar set to the one I witnessed a few weeks back at Head In The Clouds, and it still was great, with her recent live training showing through as she prepares for her next big step up the pop ranks (her seeming tradition of handing out Icy Chains to fans during her set absolutely rules, maybe more artists should hand out gifts from the stage.) And Tate McRae was the most impressive of the rising stars. At just 18, she has successfully lept from the dancing world to pop stardom, and through her smokey vocals, sharp dance moves, and warm ease on stage, the sky is the limit for how far she can take her art.

It wasn’t all success stories — Dixie D’Amelio didn’t show any reason for being in the same class as the other artists on the bill besides a big social media following — but for the most part, Jingle Ball demonstrated a healthy state of pop music. Sure, Dua Lipa’s last-minute cancelation was a bummer, but the night still had that unwrapping-a-gift-under-the-tree feeling, where everyone was happy to be back doing this yearly tradition again, creating musical memories to hold onto for as long as we can.

In a surprising move from the notoriously tight-lipped Marvel Studios, Kevin Feige has officially confirmed that Charlie Cox will return to the MCU as Daredevil. Cox brought Matt Murdock for the now aborted Netflix series of Marvel shows, and the cancellation of those shows left a huge question mark about what would Marvel would do with those characters. Everything was on the table from bringing them back to Disney+ to doing a full-on reboot. Well, in the case of Daredevil, we now know Marvel’s plans and just in time for the release of Spider-Man: No Way Home, which surely, isn’t a a coincidence.

Here’s what Feige told CinemaBlend, which set Marvel fans buzzing with excitement when the news hit late Sunday night:

If you were to see Daredevil in upcoming things, Charlie Cox, yes, would be the actor playing Daredevil. Where we see that, how we see that, when we see that, remains to be seen.

While Feige doesn’t specifically confirm that Cox will be appear in No Way Home, it has been a long gestating rumor bolstered by alleged sightings of the actors on set. (Heck, Kevin Smith was talking about all the way back in March of 2020.) More importantly, Cox’s performance on the Daredevil series was easily one of the highlights of the Netflix shows, and fans are absolutely stoked that his version of ol’ hornhead is finally getting a chance to run wild in the MCU.

Of course, fans are now asking for the other Netflix characters to return, particularly Krysten Ritter as Jessica Jones and Jon Bernthal as The Punisher.

In the more immediate future, Cox’s returning as Daredevil will only further support theories that Vincent D’Onofrio is also returning to the MCU and could already be making his presence felt in Hawkeye on Disney+ as the mysterious “uncle” to Alaqua Cox’s Maya Lopez.

2021 saw Olivia Rodrigo become one of the biggest musical artists in the world with Sour, but her rise to superstardom has been atypical in that there weren’t a ton of in-person appearances involved due to the pandemic. She has performed live here and there, but now Rodrigo has announced her first major tour.

In April and May of 2022, Rodrigo will had a bunch of venues with support from Gracie Abrams and Holly Humberstone. Then, after a couple weeks off, she’ll head to Europe and the UK, with Baby Queen opening those shows.

Gwyneth Paltrow is a multi-millionaire movie star who sells exploding vagina candles. She’s not the most relatable person — except for when it comes to her fuzzy memory about the Marvel Cinematic Universe. There’s a lot of Marvel movies and shows, and there will continue to be a lot of Marvel movies and shows for the rest of our lives. It’s hard to keep track of them all, even (especially?) when you’ve been in eight of them.

Paltrow had no idea that she was in Spider-Man: Homecoming; she forgot that she had met MCU co-star Sebastian Stan twice before; and Marvel Studios honcho Kevin Feige had to remind her that Samuel L. Jackson plays Nick Fury (“What are you talking about? He’s Nick Fury! You’ve been in movies with him,” he told her). Her latest instance of being blissfully unaware about the MCU happened on Instagram, where she was asked for her thoughts on the Disney+ series Hawkeye. She replied, “No, what is that?”

Paltrow needs to ditch the goop Podcast and start one where she explains what she thinks various Marvel movies and shows are about without having seem them. I would subscribe just to hear her say the word “Quantumania.”

As for why she can’t keep track of all the Marvel movies she’s been in, Paltrow explained, “It is confusing because there are so many Marvel movies, and to be honest, I haven’t seen very many of them. It’s really stupid and I’m sorry, but I’m a 47-year-old mother.” There is nothing to apologize for. Honestly? Respect.
