Blackpink drop the video for their new song “Pink Venom”

K-pop girl group Blackpink have shared the video for their lead single “Pink Venom” taken off their forthcoming sophomore LP Born Pink. You can take a look at the video for Pink Venom here.

Born Pink is set to drop on September 16 via YG Entertainment. Blackpink’s upcoming record arrives two years after their debut, The Album, which included the Selena Gomez collaboration “Ice Cream.” The album release was revealed along with news of the group’s upcoming world tour.

Tthe members of Blackpink—Jennie, Jisoo, Lisa, and Rosé—discussed their songwriting process in a recent interview with Rolling Stone. Said Jisoo: “We don’t just receive a completed song. We are involved from the beginning, building the blocks, adding this or that feeling, exchanging feedback—and this process of creating makes me feel proud of our music. If we just received pre-made songs, it would feel mechanical. I feel more love for the process, because we say, ‘How about adding this in the lyrics? How about adding this move in the choreography?” Rapper Jennie added: “I don’t think hip-hop is just about rapping. Look at Rihanna, she could make anything hip-hop. Hip-hop means something different to everyone. To me, it’s the spirit of cool—vibes, swag, whatever words you can use. I think Blackpink’s hip-hop is something the world hasn’t seen before. We, four girls in their twenties from different backgrounds, are using Korean and English to weave pop music with a hip-hop base. Maybe if the really cool rappers in America, who do “real hip-hop,” look at us, it can seem a little like kids doing things. Our hip-hop isn’t the rebellious kind, but we are doing something very cool. What hip-hop is this? I don’t know! It’s just cool!”

Are Tom Brady and Gisele Bündchen Marriage at the ‘Breaking Point’?

Tom Brady is gearing up for the 2022 NFL season but he is currently not with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers due to “personal” reasons. Because Brady’s entering his 23rd season, he doesn’t need to be at every training camp practice. But is the reason for this his time off due to him and his wife Gisele Bündchen being on the verge of a divorce?

Life & Style (per Suggest) recently released a cover story about Brady’s decision to unretire from the NFL may have cost him his marriage. Bündchen reportedly “went berserk” when learning of the return. “She can’t understand why he’s putting football before their marriage again,” the source reportedly says. It was also reported that fights are mounting and at a breaking point. “She put her life and career on hold so he could thrive, and she’s done doing it,” the source continued. “He’s put himself first, and she’s had to make too many sacrifices. Friends are whispering that if he doesn’t take her threats seriously, it could lead to divorce.”

In May, Bündchen spoke to Vogue about her and Brady’s role in their marriage. “I don’t think relationships just happen; it’s never the fairy tale people want to believe it is. It takes work to be really in sync with someone, especially after you have kids,” she says. “His focus is on his career, mine is mostly on the kids. And I’m very grateful that he lets me take the reins when it comes to our family. He trusts my decisions.”
