Lorde’s Wax Figure is Amazing
The Madame Tussauds figure was painstakingly crafted using more than 200 measurements and the results don’t disappoint. The artists even nailed a homage to her 2015 Golden Globes’ look.

Steven Tyler Has a New Song, and it’s Country
Aerosmith’s Steven Tyler has released his first country single. “Love Is Your Name” comes in advance of Tyler’s still-unfinished album on country label Big Machine, which also distributes artists including Florida Georgia Line, Martina McBride, and Taylor Swift. Tyler told USA Today: “Country, to me, has always been oversimplified, by an accent, a truck, cowboy boots, a dirt road, a back porch. But I think it’s more about freedom and pride and hard work and the girl. And knowing everybody’s first name in town, you know? There were 1,200 people in my town when I grew up. That, to me, is country.” Get the full story here.
Australia is Threatening to Kill Johnny Depp’s Dogs
The hashtag “War on terrier” is trending and thousands have signed a petition to save actor Johnny Depp’s dogs as Australia reacts to Pistol and Boo’s quarantine ordeal. Depp’s two Yorkshire terriers have been ordered into quarantine by the Australian government and Depp has been told to send them back to the US within three days. Government officials discovered the pets at a Gold Coast property on Wednesday after their grooming at a nearby dog salon was made public. Agriculture Minister Barnaby Joyce has said the pampered pets have to “bugger off” home to Hollywood or they will be put down. Depp arrived in Brisbane on his private jet last month with the two dogs in tow but failed to declare them with customs officials. Get the full story here.
