Video Premiere: Sitting on Saturn’s “Ghouls”

Just in time for the scariest of holidays, and fresh off the road with 311, Sitting on Saturn are bringing the Halloween vibes home with a bone-chilling, guitar-thrashing video for their track “Ghouls.” The video is a truly legit cinematic work and the track brings a wild, wreckless heft that shows that the band threw their full creative might at it.

Check out the premiere of the video below, as well as the behind the scenes edit for a deeper dive into the making of “Ghouls”.

“Ghouls started as this wild jam one night that just kept getting crazier until it felt like something out of a horror movie— it had that heavy, eerie energy that felt straight out of The Twilight Zone. We grew up on old Halloween movies, so we wanted to capture that campy horror vibe but create a funny original story. The video is like a nightmare that turns into a monster concert — We storyboarded it together, and Hoyt handled the directing and editing to bring it all to life.” – Sitting On Saturn

Hideo Kojima debunks ‘The Matrix’ video game adaptation rumours

by jummy84
written by jummy84

Hideo Kojima has responded to the rumours that The Matrix directors The Wachowskis asked him to create a video game adaptation of the hit 1999 film.

Earlier this week Konami executive Christopher Bergstresser told Time Extension that The Wachowski Sisters set up a meeting with Hideo Kojima about developing a video game version of The Matrix. “The two of them came in with their concept artist, and effectively they said to Kojima, ‘We really want you to do the Matrix game. Can you do that?’” However another Konami executive shut down the discussions. The news quickly spread across social media and now Kojima has responded.

“I was surprised to see on social media that the Wachowski sisters had ‘offered me a Matrix game project!’ back in 1999. In all these 26 years, no one ever told me such a conversation had taken place,” he wrote on X. “At the time, we were mutual fans and exchanged emails. The Matrix hadn’t been released in Japan yet, but I had already seen it in theaters in the U.S. and at a preview screening.”

He explained that he met the Wachowskis three times while they were in Japan to promote The Matrix. “There was no mention of an offer.”

“At that time, I was already extremely busy with Metal Gear Solid 2 and probably couldn’t have accepted the offer right away. But if someone had told me, maybe there could’ve been a way to make it work,” he added.

“There’s still time,” wrote one fan. “You’re still here, and so are the Wachowskis. Let’s make it happen,” added another. “What’s stopping you from trying it now? You have your own studio where you make your own rules. Make it happen and see what you get,” said a third.

While Hideo Kojima’s The Matrix game never materialised, Shiny Entertainment’s Enter The Matrix was released in 2003 while 2005 saw both The Matrix: Path Of Neo and The Matrix Online launch.

In a recent interview with Rolling Stone Brasil, Kojima spoke about the number of sequels and reboots being created in both gaming and film. “Since they’re already well-known works, it’s easier to produce them and attract investment. From a business perspective, there’s nothing wrong with that,” he explained (via Google translate) “But if the industry only does that, it’s dangerous. We need to keep creating new things.”

In other news, it looks like Crash Bandicoot is set to make a comeback via an animated Netflix show.

Katseye Dress as Mariah Carey's Eras for Halloween Video: Watch

Katseye Dress as Mariah Carey’s Eras for Halloween Video: Watch

by jummy84
written by jummy84

During the MTV Video Music Awards back in September, Katseye was seemingly puzzled when asked to name a favorite Mariah Carey music video. Now, the girl group is using the viral red carpet moment as Halloween costume inspiration.

On Tuesday, Katseye shared a video of each member dressing in iconic looks from different eras of Carey’s music videos. “All I Want for Halloween is… Gabriela @billboard, does this answer your question of our favorite @mariahcarey music video?” the group wrote on Instagram.

The video opens with Bowen Yang playing a red carpet host who asks each of the girls what their favorite Carey video is. First up is Daniela, rolling in on rollerblades and channeling Carey’s “Fantasy” look. Next comes Lara, singing along to “Obsessed” and perfectly mirroring the Grammy winner’s outfit. Sophia follows in all-white, evoking the “Honey” era. After her, Manon appears in a wedding gown inspired by “We Belong Together.”

Finally, Yoonchae arrives in a festive Christmas look straight out of “All I Want for Christmas Is You,” as fake snow begins to fall. Megan closes out the lineup, dressed in an outfit channeling Carey’s “Heartbreaker” as Yang calls back to Carey’s alter-ego “Bianca” from the video, reminiscent of the “Gabriela” Katseye sings about in their song of the same name.

After showcasing each era, the girls break into a performance of “Gabriela,” while dressed in Rainbow-inspired outfits.

“This is too cute!” says Carey in a cameo at the end of the video. “This is Katseye!”

An off-camera voice asks: “Do you know them?” (Yes, it’s a J.Lo moment reference.)

“Of course, my daughter loves them. Hello?” Carey replies.

On Instagram, the girls also shared more clips with their outfits, including one in the Rainbow look using audio where someone is asked “What is your message to the gays?” before the girls exclaim: “We love the gays!”

Trending Stories

The new Halloween visual comes a few months after the group released their sophomore EP, Beautiful Chaos, which included “Gabriela,” “Gnarly,” and “Mean Girls.” They also dropped a remix of “Gabriela,” featuring Young Miko.

“It’s us stepping into our maturity,” Lara previously told Rolling Stone about the EP. “I feel like this era, we have been a lot more authentically ourselves. I don’t have to put on a facade of any kind when talking to anyone anymore. I think that’s a beautiful thing, and you can see that more within the album. You see more of our fire.”

Video of “Seven Nation Army” Street Performance in Iran Goes Viral

by jummy84
written by jummy84

Footage of a street performance of The White Stripes’ 2003 classic “Seven Nation Army” in Tehran, Iran, has gone viral — even catching the attention of Jack White himself.

In the clip, uploaded to Instagram by journalist Afshin Ismaeli, a group of men and women (mostly not wearing hijabs) can be seen gathering on the sidewalk and dancing to the performance. Watch it below.

After the video went viral, it was reposted to Jack White and The White Stripes’ official Instagram accounts with the simple caption, “‘Seven Nation Army’ performed in the streets of Tehran.” In the comments, an Iranian singer named Arshia claimed that his band was behind the performance.

Since the 2022-2023 protests over the death of Mahsa Amini in police custody for allegedly violating Iran’s mandatory hijab law, the government under the current president, Masoud Pezeshkian, has voiced intentions to ease strict enforcement.

Specifically, Pezeshkian himself has said the morality police “were not supposed to confront” women. In March 2025, however, the UN Human Rights Council reported that Iran “continues to ramp up efforts to restrict the rights of women and girls,” despite such public assurances.

Against that backdrop and amid the recent Iran-Israel war, the viral moment serves as a welcome glimpse of joy and freedom through the power of music.

Rosalía Gets Surreal In ‘Berghain’ Video

by jummy84
written by jummy84

Rosalía delivers a stunning first sample from her upcoming Columbia album, LUX, in the form of the Nicolás Méndez-directed, Warsaw-set video for “Berghain,” which features vocals from Björk and Yves Tumor.

In the highly surreal clip, Rosalía is enveloped first by orchestra musicians and then a menagerie of animals as she moves from her apartment to a crowded bus, a jewelry store and a doctor’s office. The track is described by Columbia as “the grand orchestral centerpiece” of the upcoming project’s second movement — “an operatic journey across languages and emotion” that “expands from soft introspection to sweeping cinematic power.”

LUX will be released Nov. 7. It was recorded with the London Symphonic Orchestra conducted by Daníel Bjarnason and features such vocalists as Carminho, Estrella Morente, Silvia Pérez Cruz, the Escolania de Montserrat i Cor Cambra Palau de la Música Catalana and Yahritza. 

The album will feature three exclusive tracks on its CD and vinyl editions, which can be pre-ordered here. It’s the followup to 2022’s MOTOMAMI, which topped charts in Spain and Portugal and reached No. 1 on Billboard‘s Latin Pop Albums chart.

‘Soulless BS’: Netizens slam AI music video of Jagjit Singh’s hit song Koi Fariyaad

by jummy84
written by jummy84

Jagjit Singh is celebrated as one of the most iconic voices in Indian music history. Among his many unforgettable songs, Koi Fariyaad from Tum Bin (2001) stands out, a track that captured the very soul of the film. The song’s emotional depth wasn’t easy to achieve, as director Anubhav Sinha once revealed, according to Filmfare: “Ghazal was to play a very integral part in telling the story. Faaiz Anwar was essentially a shayar and not a lyricist, but when I told him to write a ghazal for Tum Bin, the whole idea was I’d approve one sher (couplet) and then he would write the song around that.

AI music video for Koi Fariyaad

He would tell me a sher every now and then, and I kept refusing. Finally, I was at some shoot and he called me, and recited the lines ‘Ek lamhe mein simat aaya hai sadiyon ka safar. Zindagi tez bahut tez chali ho jaise.’ I jumped at it and said this is it! He started laughing and asked me if I was aware that it was the 82nd sher, which means I had already rejected 81 shers.”

AI-generated rendition of Koi Fariyaad

However, the latest rendition of the song, released by T-Series two days ago, has stirred some controversy. The music label launched an AI-generated rendition of Koi Fariyaad, keeping Jagjit Singh’s timeless voice and original lyrics intact, but presenting a stop-motion visual treatment where the people on screen appear eerily not-human. The new direction, by Shreya Mehrotra and Gourov Dasgupta, was produced by Cyberpunk Studio.

Netizens were quick to share their disappointment. On Reddit, one user said, “Man the song itself has so much emotion and then when u go watch the video u see this soulless bs 🥲🙏.” Others chimed in with comments like, “what a joke,” “T series Short Of Money. Old Songs And AI Videos,” and “sad song ko comedy song bana diya hai.” Several fans felt that AI could never capture the emotional nuance of the original actors, with one writing, “AI can’t ever replace Priyanshu and Sandali Sinha… AI can’t explain eye expressions ever.” Another tried to see the silver lining: “They are doing an experiment i guess.”

The AI-fication of music videos

This is not T-Series’ first foray into AI music videos. In August 2025, the label collaborated with Google’s Veo 3 model and Cyberpunk Studio to produce an AI-generated video bringing the late singer KK back to life.

But with Koi Fariyaad, it seems that the emotional essence of the song is difficult to translate through AI, sparking an ongoing debate amongst netizens. What do you think about this?

Chrissy Chlapecka Releases ‘Apollo’ Video: Watch

by jummy84
written by jummy84

Chrissy Chlapecka is stepping into her power again. On Friday, the Girlie Pop diva released her single “Apollo,” which she penned following a year of darkness and self-reconstruction. Now, the song is a radiant cyberpop anthem of queer resilience.

“I wrote Apollo about the darkness I had felt throughout this year, and how I longed to chase the light I once knew myself as,” Chlapecka tells Rolling Stone in a statement. “Battling a tough road of depression, the insanity of the music industry as an independent artist, trauma therapy from previous relationships, and the rollercoaster of life… had not only stopped me in my tracks, but it also allowed me to speak directly from my heart.”

She continues, “This song is about the return to oneself, knowing who you truly are on inside, even when darkness consumes you. This music video was made to represent how I had to completely build myself back together into the fierce diva I’ve always known that I am. By the end, I’m a chromatic superhero ready to leave the planet… to my next song.”

The Mikey Harmon-directed video opens with Chlapecka walking out of a plastic tube at a junkyard as if she landed as a cyborg princess from outer space, before transporting to a spaceship-like backdrop. “Know where you run, go where you go/Lead and I follow, follow/Into the sun, out of the cold,” sings Chlapecka in the chorus. “I chase Apollo-pollo/Hit me with your light in the dark/I’d die to be where you are/Into the hollow of every little piece of your heart.”

Chlapecka co-wrote the song with Dallas Caton, Alexandra Veltri, and Jesse Saint John. The singer’s delivery on the track and Alec Cohen’s choreography in the video have inspired fans to compare it to some of Lady Gaga’s early music, in particular, Gaga’s “Judas.”

“Today I learned that Lady Gaga had given birth to a pink-haired offspring,” commented one fan on YouTube. “This woman is literally Lady Gaga 2.0 and I’m here for it,” added another.

Editor’s picks

The new single is set to be a part of an upcoming EP, Christine, her follow-up to last year’s Girlie Pop. So far, she’s released singles “Passionfruit,” “Clam Casino,” and “Cherry Do You Love Me” — all as an independent artist. The new project drops Nov. 21.

“The EP recognizes the hurt I have dealt with and gracefully sits with it for a moment, letting it be true and raw. On the other hand, it opens a world to imagination: the girl I was as a child, dancing and singing in my bedroom, pretending it was a stage… The girl who was brave enough to follow her dreams. All of who I am comes from her,” she says. “She is why I was strong enough to pick myself up again, dream as big as I could, and let the world back in.”

Chalpecka first made a splash with her debut single “I’m So Hot,” and led a movement to reclaim the term “bimbo” to be one of self-empowerment on social media. She has been open about her queer identity and has built a fierce fanbase that connects with her authenticity.

Trending Stories

“We need queer artists to be as loud, as colorful, and as fierce as possible,” Chlapecka says. “For all the queer kids who feel small right now, I hope to make you see yourself as you are. Brave, fierce, strong, and as shiny as possible. When you fall down, you can only get up stronger.”

Watch Imogen Heap’s New 13-Minute Video for I Am ___

by jummy84
written by jummy84

Imogen Heap has released an experimental, 13-minute video for three of her songs from the past year: “What Have You Done to Me?,” “Noise,” and “Aftercare.” Collectively called I Am ___, the suite is edited to flow continuously alongside visuals by the director and editor Daria Korsak. Heap said, “I hope this song takes you to the places it took me as I went through a transformation mentally and physically throughout the process of making it. I had to live it to write it. An awakening. An unravelling.” Watch the new video below.

The film, a press release notes, was made across two years, with support from Deadbeat Films, with the goal of immersing the viewer in “five visual worlds—from the heart of a microchip, through a brain full of bittersweet romantic memories, into the depths of AI consciousness, inside the eye, and finally through the shifting perspectives of machine and human.”

Heap released Speak for Yourself (20th Anniversary Remaster) last week via Megaphonic, coinciding with Heap’s reclamation of the rights to her music.

Kim Kardashian recently revealed she experienced a brain aneurysm, and the public is sending prayers and well-wishes her way.

Kim Kardashian Reveals She Experienced A Brain Aneurysm

According to TODAY, Kim Kardashian revealed her diagnosis during the recent season 7 premiere of ‘The Kardashians.’ In a clip from the show, Kardashian was seen undergoing an MRI where the aneurysm was apparently picked up. Per the outlet, an aneurysm is a “bulge or ballooning in the wall of a blood vessel,” which can occur in any part of the body and even be fatal. Additionally, the diagnosis can range from “having no symptoms for an unruptured aneurysm to a medical emergency for a ruptured one.”

“They’re like, ‘It’s just stress,’” Kardashian recalled of what doctors explained to her.

“I’m happy [the divorce] is over. People think that I have the luxury of walking away… My ex will be in my life no matter what. We have four kids together,” Kardashian explained, seemingly revealing the cause of her stress.

Per the outlet, later in the episode, Kardashian even noted that she was experiencing a psoriatic flare-up. She reportedly added that the last time she experienced one was during her and Ye’s divorce.

“Everyone around can handle it, but like, protect my babies because they’re going to know things, they’re going to grow up, they’re going to see. My job as a mom is to just make sure that at a time when [Ye’s] behavior is happening, is just to make sure that they are protected,” she explained, seemingly referencing her ex as the cause for her present flare-up.

Social Media Sends Prayers

Social media users sent well-wishes Kim Kardashian’s way in TSR’s comment section.

Instagram user @lissa_monae wrote, “Nobody talks about how hard it is to co parent with the person you’re healing from.”

While Instagram user @hey_barbiee added, “If a billionaire is stressed imagine how we feel 😭”

Instagram user @jozaibrahim wrote, “Stress is no joke. It cause health problems and or death.”

While Instagram user @oohheywhit added, “Stress can kill you fr…thats why im quick to take a nap when ppl start getting on my nerves”

Instagram user @venns0lis wrote, “She can also slow down. I’m all for women, empowerment and women chasing their dreams, but she’s clearly doing too much…”

While Instagram user @yourjamaicanchemist added, “U guys can never make me hate Kim, career woman great mom and unproblematic and doesn’t provoke”

Instagram user @breahnazhane wrote, “That’s actually super scary because those can kill you in an instance, I’m glad she’s okay.”

While Instagram user @janelle_onajourney added, “Kim, you’ve done it all. It’s okay to rest hun ❤️‍🩹”

Instagram user @terilisha wrote, “I had a stroke in my twenties because of stress … it’s really that serious! Protect your health, peace and minds y’all”

While Instagram user @gisellejphelps added, “Wow that’s no joke. Anything that comprises your health gotta go!! 🙏🏽”

Instagram user @imshedai wrote, “And from the clips of his documentary I know he stresses that lady out for sure. Stress can definitely kill you”

Before Kim Kardashian Revealed Her Brain Aneurysm, She Opened Up About Co-Parenting With Ye

Weeks before revealing her brain aneurysm, Kim Kardashian got honest about her current co-parenting situation with Ye. As The Shade Room previously reported, while appearing on ‘Call Her Daddy,’ Kardashian explained that she’s raising her and Ye’s four kids “full-time.”

“They live with me, and I welcome a great, healthy relationship with my kids and their dad. I think he knows that. I push for it all the time. But I also protect them when it’s time for that, and it goes in waves and phases, and it’s a lot of work,” she said in part.
