Thurs 20 Dec
Good news! You may recall from yesterday that many people thought Louis' quotes in the metro articles sounded a bit famifamifamifamiliar... And sure enough the same material was found in metro pieces from last year and the year before. They got a few new comments about the album and TXF, very probably from a press release, and then cobbled in some old quotes presented as current. This matters because 1, it's a reminder that you can't believe everything you read and 2, it means the apparent blacklist on him being asked about Freddie is still on as far as we know and we don't have to get out the pitchforks and go after new management just yet. Happy days! I mean okay, quite a lot of people do feel strongly that new management could do more then just not actively encourage this kind of publicity (that's focused on things other than his music) and instead make it stop but this blog is just happy to be able to report that they aren't necessarily actively pursuing the same tired old strategies.
In a hilariously in character move, Zayn took questions on Instagram and then answered none of them, instead later posting a picture of himself looking half asleep. Amazing. Bless this man, though truly we all lose when he doesn't answer my questions about his animals. Meanwhile Icarus Falls continues to rake in the good reviews.
Discourse is definitely happening today but it's just a rehash? Of the same conversations from like last year? For no new reason? Idgi. People just like arguing I guess. THANK U, NEXT let's talk instead about how someone* found a poem that uses the term "marry my bed" to refer to masturbation and then reconsider Niall's song On My Own in light of this revelation 😳Now that's the kind of discourse we need more of!
