Second time this week I’ve screenshotted a post from Threads and posted it here. But I make no apologies. This is too good not to share.

Wow Jedward have aged! So sad to see them going their own way though.

Yes! Stupidly I was waiting for the team to let me know it was live (as I’m working on another story this morning). Added to the story now.

Great! Adding that now. Hadn’t received the message that it was live!

Video isn’t out yet but we’ll link out as soon as it’s available

There are calculated reasons to take a risk at Eurovision. The song that finishes last is often not the worst one, it’s the one no-one notices. If loads of people hate your song but enough people love it, they’ll vote.

All on the stage performance for me, this one.

Look Mum No Computer shares the story behind his UK #Eurovision entry, Eins, Zwei, Drei.

I think he'd be very, very happy with that comparison.

That’s really nice to hear. Especially the idea of a 10 year old going out for weekly drinks with the crew. 😆

Daniel Radcliffe refusing to wear Alyssa Liu's gold medal because it feels like "stolen valour" is the most Daniel Radcliffe thing that Daniel Radcliffe has ever done. What a superstar.

Did you know, 52 years ago tonight, Terry Scott drove off the end of the Tees Transporter Bridge? 🧵

Harry Styles' Kiss All The Time... album review: A funky existential crisis The star's fourth album finds him in limbo, second-guessing both his relationships and his career.

Harry Styles is going through some stuff on his quite good, but weirdly oblique, fourth album.

This may seem cute but if you do this too much the cyclists may become reliant on cars feeding them, disrupting the delicate roadway ecosystem

Interviewing Wet Leg was like herding cats. Cats who swear all the time.

Had to apologise profusely both during and after the chat, but love them to bits.

Well, that’s very kind of you. 💜

Thank you! Helps that they are both insanely smart.

Here's my write-up of last night's Brit Awards. One of the best shows in a while, I reckon.

Big night out at the 2026 #britawards with my excellent co-presenter Lola Schroer, Noel Gallaghe and Olivia Dean.

But most important of all - I got a hug from Rosalía ♥️ 💃🏻

Live TV, eh? I think we scraped by…. just

The 1990 Yearbook includes the greatest interview in the history of music journalism

Some real deep cuts in there. They dedicated Aurora (Taylor’s favourite track) to Alison, who was in the audience. Very moving.

Just a little Wednesday night out with Foo Fighters.

Phil Collins and Oasis nominated for Rock & Roll Hall of Fame Jeff Buckley, Lauryn Hill, Pink, Shakira and Mariah Carey are also among the 17 nominees this year.

Superb list of nominees for the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. Suspect Oasis might make the cut after last year's tour (this is their third nomination).

Phil Collins and Shakira should really be waved through the entrance with no further questions.

Such a coup!
