Look, this LA heatwave is NOT the business, but Tove Lo made us forget all about it with some autumn witchcraft at The Greek on Sunday. We were scream-singing 'Habits' under the stars one minute, and watching her jumping around the DJ booth at Tinder’s sold-out No Vacancy afterparty the next. The 'Estrus' energy was completely unmatched. 🔗: gayety.com/tove-lo-estrus…

Grant Knoche is taking it all off... literally and emotionally. In the provocative new music video for 'STRIPPED,' the L.A. pop star strips down layer by layer, confronting the thin line between being objectified for your looks and being appreciated for who you actually are underneath. It’s a bold statement from a self-taught producer and songwriter who not only writes and produces his own tracks, but also co-wrote and produced ADÉLA’s breakout single 'Superscar' alongside hits for major stars like Christina Aguilera and TWICE. 🔗: gayety.com/grant-knoche-s…

'La Bola Negra' is already making serious awards-season noise, and after seeing it, I completely understand why.

I’m very much on board with the hype. 'La Bola Negra' hits U.S. theaters Oct. 16 before streaming on Netflix Dec. 2. 🔗: gayety.com/la-bola-negra-…
