Taylor Swift Goes Back to the Nineties in Star-Studded ‘Opalite’ Video

Taylor Swift isn’t through with her show girl era just yet. The pop star just released the music video for her next The Life of a Showgirl single, “Opalite” — and it’s full of lightning strike twists.

In the funny, unexpected visual, Taylor jumps back in time to the Nineties — you know, the era of the mall before the internet, full of infomercials and at-home workout videos. She plays a lonesome cat lady, who is hilariously dating a rock, but falls for “the revolutionary fix for your problems” that is Opalite. In an infomercial, the product promises that it “magically transforms your problems into your paradise using our state of the art chemical potion. It works on friendships, couples, pets and co-workers.”

Hear a lost recording of an Ozzy Osbourne rehearsal

It's crazy what one can find when cleaning out their attic. David Jolly, for example, unearthed a rare recording of metal legend Ozzy Osbourne rehearsing songs that would find their way on his first solo album, Blizzard of Ozz.

Found on a cassette labelled Ozzie Last Day, the 12-minute recording captures a jam session between Randy Rhoades, Bob Daisley and the Prince of darkness himself. As Rhoades riffs the blues and Daisley provides the groove, Ozzy tries out different lyrics to the tune, with his signature, gravelly voice piercing through the speakers.

Sombr Steps Into the Wild, Wild West in New ‘Homewrecker’ Video

Only a few months have passed since Sombr released I Barely Know Her, and judging from his new single, “Homewrecker,” he now knows her. “I don’t wanna talk down on your lover,” he sings on the upbeat pop song. “I don’t wanna be a homewrecker/I just know I can be better, be better, be better.” All this as he and she “contemplate just one more round of love before you go home to another one.” Talk about moving fast, but it all sounds playful.

In the song’s music video, Sombr (real name Shane Boose) and Quenlin Blackwell, the comedian and content creator best known for the YouTube series Feeding Starving Celebrities, play actors in a Western with undeniable chemistry. Meanwhile, nobody has chemistry with the movie’s volatile director, played by Milo Manheim, an actor who has starred in Disney’s Zombies movie, who constantly needles everyone until it leads to a set-wide showdown. Gus Black, who has helmed clips for Phoebe Bridgers and Laufey, directed the clip.
