“Have you ever had to battle for your life?” Chicago’s Wrigley Field, completely sold out and packed with 45,000 concert goers, erupted in passionate cries at Lady Gaga’s posed question. After fighting through the past few grueling years, the pop-star’s highly anticipated Chromatica Ball was nothing short of a smashing celebration of life’s triumphs and

While researching one of my seasonal faves, “House of Gucci,” I was unpleasantly surprised to find that the Gucci family members (including a number of very-alive descendants and the infamous, directly involved Patrizia Reggiani) upon whom this “biographical” drama was based, had no involvement in this film whatsoever, in both monetary and — perhaps more

Exploding with extravagance and chaos, Ridley Scott’s new film “House of Gucci” uncovers the treacherous and oddly operatic tale of the Gucci family’s downfall, complete with backstabbing betrayal, furious family feuds and spectacular scandal. The movie manages to push aside the red-and-green-striped leather and the golden, billion-dollar trademark to expose the Gucci dynasty as a

Scene writers made their lists; they checked them twice. The albums from January were reexamined; the soundtrack to the summer was played in December. Everyone’s votes were tallied and the final ticket of 20 records — those which we most cherished, fell deepest into and held closest to our hearts and ears in 2020 —

We need to change how we talk about celebrity male producers in regard to female artists. It’s fun to listen to celebrity male producers like Jack Antonoff and Mark Ronson talk about the creative process behind some of the greatest pop records of the last decade. Mark Ronson’s stories are one of my favorite parts

It’s time to turn the clock back to what, in retrospect, seems like a simpler time: late summer 2016. The class of 2020 first arrived on campus via an “Ultralight Beam,” looking forward to four years of academic and faith “Formation” and dreaming of staying up “All Night” with friends. Not yet “Destroyed by Hippie Powers,”

Lady Gaga has done it again with her latest project, Global Citizen’s “One World: Together At Home” concert in partnership with the United Nations’ World Health Organization. Hosted by Jimmy Fallon, Jimmy Kimmel and Stephen Colbert, this virtual music festival attracted a great lineup and created an even better playlist to continue quarantining to in

It wasn’t until this past weekend that I finally watched the critically acclaimed period-piece film “The Favourite.” After watching it, I instantly thought to myself, “Why didn’t I watch this earlier and how can I keep rewatching it?” The three main actors — Rachel Weisz, Emma Stone and Olivia Colman — all really went for

I would like to start this article by saying that awards shows are self-congratulatory displays of excessiveness and exclusivity. That being said, I am fascinated by these awards shows’ committees’ inability to get it right and the outrage these gaffes inspire. Just look at the list of Best Picture and Album of the Year winners

Lady Gaga, Bradley Cooper, a popular film soundtrack, social media craze and two earlier films to compare it to, Bradley Cooper’s newest take on the classic “A Star Is Born” always intended to stir up some controversy. The Observer’s Scene section reviews films, music and films with music in them. Did you expect us not
