I think monthly magazines (Vogue, Elle etc) are 1 month 1 artist while weekly magazines (TIME, Billboard etc) are 1 week 1 artist

Cara on The Graham Norton Show
709 Words
After a series of appearances in Europe and more specifically in France and the UK going from award shows like the NRJ Music Awards and the BRITs, to radio stations like Capital FM and more, Cara Delevingne has been all over the media in those countries. Cara Delevingne stopped by for all those shows but her own tour as well, the Distant World Tour, which will have it's first few concerts performed at the Stade De France, France's largest stadium situated in France, before moving to the UK next week.
Her latest appearance was on The Graham Norton Show, on which she appeared to perform a few songs first before sitting for an interview. Wearing a black long lace dress, Cara Delevingne sang her promotional single 'Distant Horizon'. Once the song ended, Cara's dancers started coming on stage, ripped Cara's dress apart leaving only a leotard, and Cara started singing the up-beat 'Once', the second promotional single promoted this week. Once 'Once' ended, Cara sang her current single which seems to become a huge hit single 'Fall Out' which also features Jay-Z. However, Cara sang the remix version of the song which also features ASA Rocky and Kendrick Lamar. Cara then sat down on the show wearing the leotard and answered the questions in the interview.
This was an incredible performance Cara! Congratulations on all the awards you've been getting lately! Do you think your next album will have the same acclaim?
Well I hope so! It's also one of my fears. I'm just scared of ****ing something up and have the album not be as good as Distant Horizon but really I wouldn't allow it to be released if I don't think it's perfect yet. I need it to be perfect before I actually release it.
Isn't it stressful to constantly have to try to achieve more and more things? Especially with all the media attention you are getting.
Well definitely. Having created a new standard for myself, it makes things harder for the next album. But I don't like to listen to what the media says, especially after my debut album was released. I remember I was constantly attacked back in 2013 and it was basically killing me. 'Distant Horizon' was partly about that: Just keep on moving on and not listening to what the critics say about you.
Let's talk about your tour, the Distant World Tour, your performing your first concert from this tour in the UK next week, what's next for it? Especially after the re-release of your album in a few weeks
Well I want to keep it up. I don't really want to end it any time soon, but it might slow down in a few weeks as I would like to concentrate on my third album, and mostly record it in Europe or more specifically in Milan. With the re-release, I just want to change up the setlist and the choreographis and such things.
What other projects do you have?
Well my perfume is coming together really fast now, and I might officially announce it really soon. I can't wait for it to actually be revealed, with the scent, the bottle and all. It's my first perfume so yeah it's very exciting. I also have the movie 'Paper Towns' coming out at the end of the year. And obviously in just a few weeks the Fifty Shades of Grey soundtrack.
Let's talk about this soundtrack, what songs are included on it?
Well there's like ten tracks on it, 7 completely new, the 'Chains' duet with Nick Jonas and 2 tracks from the 'Distant Horizon' Target edition. The two tracks didn't feel right on the original version of the album but they fit this one well. They are called 'Slowly' and 'Sweet Desserts'. The 7 new tracks also include a track I worked on with Zendaya, she wrote the song for me and I ended up accepting it. It's halfway between a ballad and a mid-tempo song and just constantly switches between the two. It's sort of a breakup song and it fits the end of the movie well as there's a 'unofficial break-up'.
Cara Delevingne's single 'Fall Out' is now available and is featured on the platinum certified album 'Distant Horizon'.

Alan Carr: Chatty Man
722 Words
Cara Delevingne just completed another appearance on UK Television this time on Alan Carr: Chatty Man, who has been hyping up this episode with Cara Delevingne for a few weeks now through commercials and advertisements and more. Cara Delevingne naturally increased the number of viewers the show usually gets, and Cara's performance of 'Fall Out' not only pushed her single's sales but also the album's sales. Cara Delevingne's album 'Distant Horizon' is expected to surpass the 2 million copies sold this week as it is predicted to get a fourth week passing the 500 thousand copies sold around the world. The album has been #1 on ITunes all week long on many ITunes around the world including in the US, UK and France, and all Latin America countries which she visited earlier in the week.
Cara Delevingne first sat down for an interview wearing a black Burberry dress which she had bought the day before, when she went shopping through the shops in London followed by hordes of fans.
Welcome back to the show Cara! Have you had a good time in London this time around?
Well I always have some fun over here, it is my home country after all, I always enjoy visiting it again and again, and go see my parents.
So you're releasing the re-release of your album 'Distant Horizon' as the soundtrack of 'Fifty SHades of Grey' on February 8th, tell us more about that
Well EL James wanted an artist who was pretty much known as being quite heavily inspired by sex to do music, but not necessarily in a very trashy way just something really sultry, for the soundtrack of the movie, as that's something she followed pretty closely when it came to the movies. She picked me herself which makes me feel great too. The re-release will have 10 new tracks in addition to the 16 tracks which were already released.
And one of those tracks is basically a collaboration with Nick Jonas right? Tell us about that.
Well it's not a brand new track. It's actually Nick's song 'Chains' which we changed to fit me a little bit and it's a collaboration with Nick. I met Nick at an award show back in December and we had some great time together. We quickly became friends and all so he knew I was recording this soundtrack. And I'm a big fan of he's music so one day I was just talking to him about the soundtrack and asked if he wanted to be on it. And we joked about he's song 'Chains' fitting the movie because of all the S&M in the movie. But we ended up really using 'Chains' and for that exact purpose!
Which one of the songs on this re-release is your favorite?
Well It's the lead single so I'm not gonna reveal it's name, but I guess the best track after the lead single is called 'Painful Pleasure'. I'm like obsessed with this song at the moment. The track is just so good. It also sort of represents a little bit how my songs will sound like in the next album. Or at least a little bit of what they would sound like.
Let's talk about your inspirations, who inspires you in the music industry?
Well each of my albums sound different so it varies by album, but in my everyday life, I always look up to Britney Spears, Rihanna and Madonna, who are 3 amazing artists. Those are probably the reasons why I wanted to start singing. I wanted to be like them. For 'Distant Horizon' I was really inspired by Beyonce and Rihanna, I wanted to mix pop and Urban music and make it sound good and not just plain are bad. My next album has a much more personal feeling to it, even if it's not really autobiographical, sound-like and theme wise, I basically am doing everything concerning those two. I want it to have a pure CARA sound.
After the interview ended, Cara Delevingne got an outfit change. She now was wearing a beautiful brown and gold dress with golden boots. Cara performed her brand new hit single 'Fall Out' which features Jay-Z. Cara Delevingne's 'Fall Out' is now available and is featured on Distant Horizon along with the other hit singles 'La Belle' and 'Honey'.

The X Factor UK
714 Words
Cara Delevingne ends a heavy promotional week with a performance on the hit United Kingdom TV singing competition The X Factor with a big performance of her latest single 'Fall Out' which features Jay-Z, who also performed the song with Cara. The performance obviously helped sell the single on digital retailers such as ITunes but it also helped sell Cara's other singles from this album, such as 'La Belle' and 'Honey'. "There's a chance Cara could be #1 on both charts this week, on both the album and singles charts!" said a Billboard editor, as the single 'Fall Out' has been on constant rotation on radio ever since it's release, the huge amount of views for the music video of the song and the song being number #1 on the singles charts all week on the US ITunes, while the album was #1 all week long as well.
Cara Delevingne's outfit was composed of a pink crop top with 'CARA' written on it, she also had a white leotard underneath it which had some gold detail, she also wore some golden Christian Louboutin boots. The performance started with Cara being inside a luxurious modern room which was recreated on the stage. SHe starts singing the first few verses from the song. Cara walks around the room before sitting on the desk and doing a choreography with her body. A few dancers start coming on stage as the chorus kicks and and Cara goes into full choreography mode, the chorus was then extended and Cara fully danced to it. Jay-Z then appeared on the stage and started rapping he's part. After the perofrmance wnet on regularly while the music video fo the song was projected on the background of the stage, Cara ended the performance after a long dancing choreography which went witht he extended version of the song. The dancers then started destroying everything, every piece of furniture on stage and everyhting completely ended with all the dancers stopped doing a movement and Cara and Jay-Z posing in the middle of the stage back to back.
After the performance, the host ran back on stage to ask Cara some questions:
So this was another great performance of 'Fall Out'! Could you just tell us what the song is about please?
Well, it's basically about a relationship in a completely messy situation, a couple constantly fighting. I basically represent myself in one of the coules and at the end I'm just sick of everything and I go wild. The music video of the song is pretty much about the same thing as well but instead of just trashing around some objects around, I set fire to a big villa with my boyfriend it. I had a great time filming the video!
When will we finally get something from the Fifty Shades of Grey soundtrack you're doing?
Well you surely aren't the first person asking me about it. I can only say that the fans should just be ready anytime right now for a huge announcement. New stuff are coming very soon, and I'm really excited for all of this!
So no more new singles from the original version of 'Distant Horizon'?
Not right now for sure. Maybe after the promotion for the re-release which also is the Fifty Shades of Grey soundtrack ends, but for now, the 'Distant Horizon's original album era ends with 'Fall Out' but overall the era still goes on as the Fifty Shades of Grey soundtrack can be considered to be part of it.
Music wise, what's your next step?
Well somewhere between Eurodance and maybe Alternative-Pop? Yeah It's very inspired by singers like Kerli (or at least her Utopia EP), Stromae and CHVRCHES. I loved listening to them , but the album is mostly me, it's just me imposing a new sound on myself and making everything sound good. I'm really excited for this one. And it's not even that far away from it.
Cara Delevingne's sophomore album 'Distant Horizon' is now available and features the hit singles 'Fall Out' which features Jay-Z and the platinum certified top 3 hit singles 'La Belle' and 'Honey'. All three songs also received multiple remixes and Remixes EPs which can be purchased and you can stream Cara Delevingne's singles on VEVO and Spotify.

Bjork performs a medley on DWTS
SETLIST
1. The Stoics
2. Evangeline
3. The Cynics
4. Sweet Agony
Late last night, the Icelandic musician Bjork performed on the hit dance competition television show Dancing With The Stars. This her first ever televised performed there (it was all 100&% live, by the way, so not to worry) and everyon was welcome to have her there. Bjotrk was surrounded by a trio of professional dancers who composed their very own choreography routine to accompany Evangeline (and a few other album tracks she performed on the show as well) which is a track off of Bjork's 9th studio album - Ekklisis. The airy song appropriately serves as the second single from it, following on from Arete - the first single - afterwards. It's been said that Bjork was heavily invested into the performance and even met up with the trio of professional dancers days before into order to prepare for the performance and figure out what they should do and how everything should be executed in the end. Aside from the obvious second single Evangeline, she also performed a few other album tracks. They included the two promotional singles that Bjork released at the start of the week - The Stoics and The Cynics. These promo singles are inspired by Ancient Greek philosophy a lot so it seems fitting to make them the "buzz" singles over any of the other tracks on her latest 2015 LP release - Ekklisis. She also performed Sweet Agony which hasn't been officially released as of yet and only features on the album itself. It has been rumoured quite an awful lot that Sweet Agony will be a single in the not too distant future. If not, then it will probably be the next single after Evangeline completes its run first so be sure to watch out for this one soon soon! Everyone in the audience especially supported Bjork as she finally unleashed the tremendous musical talent that rarely ever gets a spotlight. Dancing With The Stars was one of the largest platforms the Icelandic musician has performed on which is a good thing since she has expressed her interest in delving into the mainstream but still retaining that unique Bjork flavour she's always had from the start and the differences about her from other artists that we actually love and find remarkably endearing too.
She started off the mini setlist with one of her promotional singles - The Stoics - which was quite soothing and laidback in comparison to the upbeat tracks that singers usually perform on Dancing With The Stars when taking advantage of its platform. So, it was definitely refreshing to see Bjork in her element and not have to conform to what is typically thought of as "the norm". The trio of professional dancers then came out and performed a surreal choreography routine with elements of modern performance art also included within it as well. The chemistry between all of them and Bjork on that dancefloor was a force to be reckoned which was proven by how amazed and in awe both the audience and the judging panel were throughout. Bjork's performance on DWTS was probably the most ambitious one they've ever done on the show ever since Sia came on to perform Chandelier with Dance Moms' Maddie Ziggler. One of the highlights of the mini setlist was when the Icelandic musician performed Sweet Agony near the end. Actually, scratch that, Bjork embodied Sweet Agony to the ****ing tee. As soon as The Cynics came to a close Bjork pretended to sleep and rest her head on the piano (yes, she knows how to play piano) and proceeded to utter "sweeet agonyyy" in the most disturbing voice ever and played a sick and twisted piano chord afterwards. Then the beat kicked in and wow! The dancers were doing backflips, Bjork was doing her thing and it was a spectacular event. Bjork definitely outdid herself last night with her electrifying performance. In was a definite whirlwind of sorts!
Social media was set ablaze as Bjork's performance trended on Twitter for a good couple of hours. Many responded well to her ability to entertain, with one fan expressing her delight quite succinctly: "Damn, @bjork got it made #imdead". Throughout this entire era, thus far, Bjork has been catering more and more to her sizeable internet following which is amazing to see.
Get a copy of Ekklisis - in stores now!
Bjork's second single, Evangeline, is now available for PURCHASE.
Also, please check out Bjork's promotional singles - The Cynics and The Stoics.

So, I'd like to make it clear that I didn't close the thread myself. I don't know how it got closed, and I don't know what happened.
It was weird, because I was going to announce that this upcoming week was going to be the final week as well, since the game was seemingly dead. I only got one promo list last night, too, so that's... Unfortunate.
But apparently, since my "crazy ass" is accused of closing the thread, Giselle would like to start hosting in a week or two despite no further permission or approval from any host or player, but I'll see how that goes.
I guess this is it. I'm sorry I couldn't have been a better host for you all, but I hope you enjoyed this season.
