Paul McCartney has thrown his full support behind the upcoming Beatles biopics, but said that there is one small issue that made him reach out to the director and urge him “don’t do this”.

Texas Senate candidate Ken Paxton warned that Governor Greg Abbott is struggling in his bid for reelection, made excuses for his own campaign issues, and conceded that Republicans will likely lose seats in the state legislature, according to audio of a private donor event obtained by Rolling Stone. “Yes, Abbott is struggling,” Paxton tells an attendee at a small, Washington, D.C., fundraiser on September 24, noting that despite the governor’s name ID and monetary advantage over Democrat Gina Hinojosa, the race is “still close.” “Damn,” another person in the room responds, prompting Paxton to add that Abbott is in a…
With the launch of the acclaimed Hamlet To The Thief London run just around the corner, exclusive photos have been shared of behind-the-scenes rehearsals from the Radiohead meets Shakespeare epic. Check them out on NME below.

It’s a lazy autumn afternoon, and NME are squeezed outside the front of Manchester venue Gorilla, smoking rollies with Bathing Suits. Tonight, they’ll open for Man/Woman/Chainsaw, but traffic means the band are late for the interview, and now, our location is slightly compromised. Locals wielding loudspeakers whizz past on bikes, buses honk, and passersby audibly grimace at the fugs of cigarette smoke. The soundscape is so fucked that everyone has to take turns with the recorder to be heard, which gives the whole conversation the vibe of a team-building exercise. The disorder is fitting: submitting to noise is what Bathing…
The Avalanches have always been eclectic, but even by their own standards ‘No Bad Memories’ is a manic listen. With 31 tracks crammed into 52 minutes, their fourth LP is full to bursting. There are more than 20 guests drawn from a preposterously broad spectrum, from experimental colossi like Suzanne Ciani, indie heroes like Karen O and Panda Bear, safe-hands producers Jamie xx and Barry Can’t Swim, voiceovers from Mike Patton of Faith No More, and a rare appearance from Carly Simon. It even comes accompanied with a surrealist multi-format sci-fi film starring Haley Joel Osment. And that’s to say…
Kelly Clarkson vs. Art of Play has continued to escalate since the singer and TV host called out the Brooklyn shop for treating her like Julia Roberts’ character in Pretty Woman. On Saturday, the singer shared that she had visited the store and was looked down on by an employee. “Just drove all the way to Brooklyn to check out this store I thought looked really rad and had a few things in mind to buy and literally was looked at as if I couldn’t afford it and was told he could find something comparable for me,” she wrote on X.…
Jimmy Kimmel set his sights on Katie Zacharia, the latest blonde woman to act as Donald Trump‘s press secretary. On Tuesday night’s episode of Jimmy Kimmel Live, Kimmel recounted Zacharia’s disastrous first day of work. “It was the first day of kindergarten for the new White House press secretary, Katie Zacharia,” Kimmel recounted. “You know, Trump’s been president for quite a long time now. I think it’s been about, what, 50 or 60 years? And in order to keep him awake and interested every six months they bring in a new fawning blonde dolt to add to the rotation.” He…
