In a post on Instagram, she shared a photo of the two of them from her 30th birthday party back in December. “It’s National Siblings Day! My brother @austinkingsleyswift is one of my best pals, and I’m really proud of him because he’s in a film that came out today called We Summon The Darkness (which he also co-produced),” she captioned the post.

BILLIE EILISH ADDRESSES FAKE SEX TAPE: Billie Eilish chatted with Dazed and was asked about the amateur adult film that some people seem to believe features her. “You think I would be having sex on a train in daylight? With a dress on and fishnets and a f*cking peace-sign necklace? Dog, come on!” Billie said. She also talked about how people pretend to be her while walking around in real life. “People put a f*ckin’ green and black wig on and go out in public and pretend to be me,” she said. “They hire security and get a nice car, to be famous for a day. I think that sh*t is so f*ckin’ annoying!”

LEON BRIDGES, JOHN MAYER SHARE NEW SONG ‘INSIDE FRIEND’: Leon Bridges has released the new song “Inside Friend,” featuring John Mayer. “Inside Friend” is a song about staying at home with a lover. Bridges said on Instagram that the COVID-19 pandemic helped spur him and Mayer to release the song. “The current state we’re in globally compelled @johnmayer and me to dig this back up and finish it,” he wrote. “I hope y’all find it soothing and uplifting while we hole up indoors and get through this.”

ALICIA KEYS SAYS ‘EMPIRE STATE OF MIND’ ALMOST DIDN’T HAPPEN: In a recent radio interview, Alicia Keys revealed that “Empire State of Mind” with Jay-Z almost didn’t happen. She explained, “For a minute, it wasn’t even going to come together. He couldn’t find me, he couldn’t get in touch with me for whatever reason.” When they finally did connect, Alicia revealed that Jay-Z didn’t like the first draft of the song. She explained, “I actually cut it in L.A. I think that was the problem. You’re not supposed to cut a song about New York in L.A. It’s just wrong. … After I sent it in … he hits me back like ‘Could you sing it again?’ … So then I brought it back to New York, I cut it right … and there it is.”
