The VMAs took place last night and plenty of celebrities were in attendance. That meant that reporters were able to catch up with some of the biggest stars in music. That's exactly what Billboard did with Yung Miami when they got the chance to ask her about a number of topics. "It means everything... to be a girl from the hood out here just enjoying the VMAs," she begins the interview before being asked a series of more specific questions.
When the interviewer asks Yung Miami what she has next after a big 2023 so far, she answers right away. "I got a reality show coming out, the City Girls dropping an album, I got a new podcast." Clearly, people looking for more Miami won't have to look far as she's got a lot on the way. When she's asked if she ever imagined being in this position, it nearly brings her to tears. She talks about crying the morning of the show and expresses how thankful she is to be in this position. Check out the full interview below.
Despite the reveals, the biggest storyline for Yung Miami following the VMAs was something else entirely. The very revealing outfit choice she made left her vulnerable to a good bit of pregnancy speculation. Those rumors increased exponentially when Miami herself retweeted one of the posts identifying her reported baby bump. While her reasons for retweeting the post are unclear most fans think she was merely feeding fan speculation as a joke.
City Girls have released 4 new songs this year. The first was "Act Bad" with Diddy and Fabolous. The track became somewhat of a summer anthem racking up over 4 million streams since its release. The most recent was the sexually charged banger "Face Down," which dropped last month. What do you think of Yung Miami's interview with Billboard at the VMAs? Let us know in the comment section below.
Perry Farrell has released another public apology following an on-stage confrontation involving his bandmate Dave Navarro.
The Jane's Addiction frontman was involved in a physical altercation with guitarist Dave Navarro last year during a live performance, an incident that prompted the band to cancel their reunion tour and eventually led to their split.
“I'd like to address what happened on stage last year,” Perry, 66, said in a statement shared across both his personal Instagram account and Jane's Addiction’s official page. “I've reflected on it and know I didn't handle myself the way I should have. I apologize to our patrons and my bandmates for losing my temper and for disrupting the show.”
He went on to admit that he did not meet fan expectations and described himself as deeply remorseful toward everyone impacted by the incident.
“Jane's Addiction has been at the center of my life for decades. The band, the songs, the patrons, and the impact that we've had on music and culture mean more to me than any words I could ever possibly write down,” he shared.
“My aim has always been to give our audience the best possible show, something real, honest and positive. In Boston, we fell short of that, and I'm truly sorry to everyone who was impacted.”
Jane's Addiction also issued its own statement regarding the altercation, which ultimately led to the group’s remaining members filing a lawsuit against Perry alleging assault, battery, intentional infliction of emotional distress, negligence, breach of fiduciary duty, and breach of contract.
“Today we are here to announce that we have come together one last time to resolve our differences, so that the legacy of Jane's Addiction will remain the work the four of us created together,” the band wrote, signaling that the group would not move forward with Perry. “We now look forward to the future as we embark on our separate musical and creative endeavors.”
