Taylor Swift’s Super Bowl
A year after Rihanna’s iconic halftime show – where she surprisingly revealed her second pregnancy to the whole world -, which caused a lot of talk, Super Bowl LVIII already promises to be… ‘be so striking. The sporting event, one of the most followed in the world with some 100 million viewers on average in the United States alone, will this year pit the San Francisco 49ers against the Kansas City Chiefs in Paradise, Nevada, on Sunday. One question burns on the lips: will Taylor Swift, the companion of Travis Kelce, tight end for the Chiefs, put on a show in the stands of Allegiant Stadium?
Barely had the Grammys madness passed (remember that the American singer-songwriter sparked controversy by ignoring Celine Dion while she presented her with the album of the year trophy) than Taylor Swift is still the target of public opinion. This time, she is criticized for traveling by private plane. The star’s every move will be scrutinized again: everyone wonders if she will jump on a plane to be able to attend the famous match after a concert in Tokyo planned as part of her tour Eras Saturday… For its part, the NFL is already rubbing its hands since each appearance of Taylor Swift at Kansas City Chiefs games attracts new audiences and, therefore, new advertising revenue.
In any case, it is the musician Usher who will perform the highly anticipated halftime concert of the 58e Super Bowl.

Jennifer Lopez promises to surprise her audience with This Is Me… Now: A Love Story, an almost fantastical film that accompanies the release of his ninth studio album, which bears the same name. Directed by Dave Meyers (Hitcher), the feature film, whose first images look like an ultra-slick advertisement for perfume or a luxury car, promises the public a cinematic odyssey: nothing less. JLo appears more generous and romantic than ever, adorned in attires each more breathtaking than the last to tell the story of her romantic journey. Between two choreographies, the artist of course surrounds himself with his partner, Ben Affleck, but also with a host of stars like Sofia Vergara, Trevor Noah, Post Malone, Jenifer Lewis and even Paul Raci for this very “retrospective”. personal.

After focusing on love and business with her series In other wordsMarilou is now interested in sexuality from another angle. From the repercussions of the first contacts with sexuality to addictions, including intimacy and fantasies, the host and singer-songwriter explores in the smallest details the issues of sexuality today thanks to enriching discussions with personalities like Varda Étienne and Cynthia Wu-Maheux, but also professionals such as sexologist Myriam Daguzan Bernier, doctor in neuroscience Joël Monzée and psychologist Lorie Zéphyr.
How can we not finally mention the great return of The little life on public airwaves? Three decades after its broadcast, the show becomes a new miniseries shaped, of course, by the original team and returns to its original time slot. The Paré clan is therefore reunited on screen for new episodes, which will highlight the most absurd and dysfunctional family, but above all the most endearing, from Quebec, which has a hard time getting used to technologies and current social trends. While Claude Meunier’s character, Ti-Mé, mourns the departure of Môman, Marc Labrèche, Josée Deschênes, Guylaine Tremblay, Diane Lavallée, Marc Messier, Bernard Fortin and Rémy Girard have a blast returning to their roles.
In other words. Sexuality
