- Interview:
Your rollout for your last album, WHEN WE ALL FALL ASLEEP, WHERE DO WE GO?, had you releasing the album’s lead single nearly a full year before the album’s eventual release. Do you plan on doing the same for your forthcoming second studio album?
I can’t say that I purposefully plan on doing the same. To be honest, I have no plans when it comes to releasing music. What I do is unique to me. For my last album, I was releasing singles before I was even finished recording the album altogether. It’s the same right now. I’m nowhere close to having a complete second album, but I’m releasing the songs that I'm currently obsessed with as singles. I do this so that when it is time to spend months promoting and performing a song, it is one that I am still enamoured by. My label hates it, but they give me the freedom to do so. I want to change the way artists release music. In my opinion, the old-fashioned way of meticulously planning an "era" out and plotting all the singles is over. I want us artists to be able to release our music when we want, and how we want.
"heather”, just like all 14 songs on WHEN WE ALL FALL ASLEEP, WHERE DO WE GO?, is a solo song. Do you have anything against collaborations? Why does it seem like it’s something you refuse to do?
I have absolutely nothing against collaborations. Some of my favourite songs of all time are collaborations, such as the fucking masterpiece that is "Child’s Play" by SZA and Chance the Rapper. I think collaborations are an excellent way for outstanding artists on their own, to come together to blend their minds and be even more awesome. I guess the reason I have stayed away from them so far is that working with my brother Finneas is basically like a collaboration. He is such an amazing artist. Best musician I’ve ever known. When we come together in the studio to write or produce, it’s the best collaboration I can dream of. So yeah, our teamwork fulfills my need to express my artistic abilities with another person.
Do you feel like there’s anything you can’t do at this point?
Really embarrassing, but I swear to God I never learned how to tie my fucking shoes! Like, I can tie them, but it’s basically like a knot! I’m constantly asking my family, friends, or team to tie my shoes. Fuck, that makes me sound like I’m some Mariah Carey-type diva shit, but I promise you I really try to learn but I can just never get it!

- Text version:
Performances:
On this week’s Saturday Night Live (Jan. 30th), Billie Eilish was the show’s musical guest. Gracing the stage twice, she performed her hits "heather" and "everything i wanted".
After the show’s host, John Krasinski, introduced her, Billie Eilish took to the stage for her first performance, in which she sang "heather". The stage was set up as a three-wall room, with mirrors spanning across each wall. Billie sat in the center stage, legs crossed. Her outfit was her usual baggy designer clothes, in all-white. Billie remained seated singing melancholy during the song’s first verse. She got up at the chorus, and slowly walked around the stage in circles. During the song’s bridge, Billie dramatically leaned against the mirrored walls. She ended the performance by somberly staring at the mirror directly opposing the audience, with her reflection showing alongside the other two walls.
Her second performance was more of a traditional SNL performance. The set returned to the normal SNL stage background. Subdued blue lights shined on stage. Her brother and producer, Finneas, joined her on stage. They sat on stools, as Finneas began to play the piano intro to "everything i wanted". The performance was simplistic with Billie simply singing sitting down and Finneas playing alongside her. Hugging her brother after finishing the song’s last note, Billie ended the performance to the audience’s applause.
Cameo in skit:
Being a big fan of SNL, Billie couldn’t pass up the opportunity to appear in a skit. The skit, starring SNL cast member, Alex Moffat, and alum, Maya Rudolph, playing President Biden and Vice-President Harris respectively, was centred around Biden’s inauguration. Filled with jokes about the attendees' runway-ready outfits, including Bernie Sanders’ fabulous mittens, and a former President Trump being locked out, the skit received acclaim from the audience.
Billie Eilish appeared near the end of the skit, playing the role of Harris’ jackgrande-looking step-daughter, Ella Emhoff. The audience erupted into applause as Billie revealed herself among the skit's inauguration attendees. Her cameo in the skit was brief and had her saying a few lines of dialogue of how she wants the inauguration to be over so that she can return to her Hogwarts cosplay group. Her lines were delivered with superb comedic timing and had the audience laughing. Following the airing of the show, multiple critics praised Billie’s cameo in the skit. Los Angeles Times writer Lorraine Al, noted, “While her appearance came and went in time, it left an everlasting impression with the audience. The young pop-sensation managed to outshine the veteran host Krasinski, and proved that one day she can take on the role of hosting herself”.

Jonny Braun extends his ever growing label collection of artists as he goes overseas this time, signing the young 18 year old Mabel to his skyrocketing label. Born as Mabel McVey to the famous UK artists Nenee Cherry and Cameron McVey, music has always been in Mabel's bloodline. "I'm just so excited to get in the studio and write and sing my heart out," said excited Mabel. "I'm so ecstatic to follow my dreams!! I grew up seeing my mom and dad doing it, and it just reflected upon me. Â Actually, I just started to recording some songs I had in my notes app after signing the contract, Jonny loves them." Jonny Braun then added on to her comments, "We are gonna make her huge on a worldwide scale. We've only focused on the US with our other artists, but Mabel has that worldwide appeal that's key to a label. Beware to my fellow other CEO's, because Jonny Braun's Virgin Records has just entered the Pop market."

Keke Palmer, YoungBoy Never Broke Again, and City Girls Suspended From Contacts Indefinitely; Mabel Debut Single Release This Week
Hello fans of Virgin Records, this is Jonny Braun.
It saddens me to have to announce that my artists Keke Palmer, YoungBoy Never Broke Again, and City Girls have all been put on suspension until further notice.
Keke Palmer will finish her promotion booked for this month, but she's being temporarily relieved from her contract afterward.
City Girls and YoungBoy Never Broke Again have already been temporarily terminated.
Simply put, I am not satisfied with the commercial performances of their singles as of late, so they will go into the studio to satisfy me.
Millions of dollars have been put in each artist, so to see my recoups not coming in, is disheartening.
Therefore, a punishable act must be issued. Sorry to all fans involved.
One more thing, Mabel's debut single, "Finders Keepers", will be released this Friday. Maybellines get excited!!!! I'll post the #FindersKeepers cover art below.
Talk to y'all soon.
- Jonny
