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.

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.

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

You’ve heard it a thousand times: the caterwaul that launched a thousand memes, the moment that already has Lady Gaga preordained for Oscar glory.

Lady Gaga released a PSA in the form of a music video for “Til It Happens To You” last week. The song was featured in “The Hunting Ground,” the documentary — screened at Notre Dame — that addresses campus rape culture and its consequences. The music video, purposefully released within The Red Zone (the weeks after

Sunday night marked the end of 2015’s award show season with the 87th Annual Academy Awards, an evening that left America surprised, inspired and a little uncomfortable. Neil Patrick Harris, four-time host of the Tonys and two-time Emmy master of ceremonies, found himself on primetime yet again, taking on the Oscars for the first time in

This year’s Oscars fashion harkened back to days past, with a limited color scheme and emphasis on dress craftsmanship. Lupita N’yongo wore
