‘Lover’ will be the first album that Taylor Swift owns

Fans of Taylor Swift can’t calm down. With 18 songs, Lover is Taylor Swift lengthiest album to date. The artist traded dark themes for a bright rainbow of colors, showcased in songs like “Me.” Of course, some fans noticed how far of a departure this album is from her last full-length record, Reputation. During an interview with Vogue Magazine, Taylor Swift discussed the important place in her career that this album holds.

“There are so many ways in which this album feels like a new beginning. This album is really a love letter to love, in all of its maddening, passionate, exciting, enchanting, horrific, tragic, wonderful glory,” Swift said.

Due to her feud with Scooter Braun, the artist no longer has the rights to all of her old music. But don’t worry. During an interview with Good Morning America, the artist confirmed that she will re-record her older albums. As for now, Lover is the only album owned by Taylor Swift herself.

Taylor Swift’s ‘Lover’ is breaking personal records for the artist

In addition to singles like “Me” and “You Need To Calm Down,” Taylor Swift’s album as a whole broke records for the artist. She tallied up millions of pre-sold albums at retailers, beating old albums like Reputation.

According to a press release, Lover “smashed the all-time pre-sale record at Target and eclipsed debut physical sales of Reputation. In addition, the album has hit #1 in 98 countries on iTunes. On the Spotify U.S. chart, every song debuted in the top 25 with 9 in the top 10. Lover also broke the global record as the ‘top album debut in the history of Amazon Music.'”

Taylor Swift’s ‘Lover’ is rivaling other popular albums of 2019, including Ariana Grande’s ‘Thank U, Next’

Taylor Swift is breaking personal records and even the records of other artists. As far as 2019 goes, Lover is surpassing the number of streams of albums by artists like The Jonas Brothers and almost topping Ariana Grande’s hit album, Thank U, Next.

According to Billboard, Lover’s streaming start of “175,000 SEA units, which equates to 226 million on-demand audio streams for its songs during the tracking week, the album notches the second-biggest streaming week ever for an album by a woman, the second-largest for a pop album, and the second-biggest of any album in 2019. In all three metrics, Lover was only beat by the debut week of Ariana Grande’s Thank U, Next, which entered with 228,000 SEA units (equaling 307 million on-demand audio streams).”

Even Taylor Swift’s music videos are breaking boundaries, each earning millions of plays on YouTube. Videos for songs like “You Need To Calm Down” and “Me!” earned multiple nominations and awards at this year’s MTV Video Music Awards. The artist even won the award for Video of the Year for “You Need To Calm Down.”

Taylor Swift’s Lover is available for streaming on Spotify, Apple Music, and most major music platforms.

Kevin Hart injured in Calabasas car crash, CHP says - KABC-TV

CALABASAS, Calif. -- Comedian Kevin Hart was injured in an early morning vehicle crash Sunday in the hills just south of Calabasas, officials say.

The crash happened around 12:45 a.m. in the area of Mulholland Highway and Cold Canyon Road, according to the California Highway Patrol.

Hart was a passenger in his own classic 1970 Plymouth Barracuda when the driver lost control turning from Cold Canyon onto Mulholland.

The Barracuda veered off the road and rolled down the embankment, according to the CHP report. Two people were initially trapped in the rollover.

Hart suffered major back injuries and was brought to Northridge hospital, the CHP said.

The driver of the vehicle was also hospitalized. The other passenger complained of pain but did not go to a hospital.

An update on Hart's condition was not immediately available, but it does not appear the injuries were life-threatening.

The cause of the crash is under investigation, but the CHP says there's no indication drugs or alcohol were involved.

Chapman opened up to PEOPLE earlier this week about how the family is coping two months after Beth's death.

"Each one copes differently, there is a few that really barely making it," Chapman said. "We don't know what to do. We haven't read, we weren't prepared. I lost my mother first, and when my mom passed away, I'm like, 'I wish dad would have died first', you know, because I love my mummy. So I went to them and said, 'I'm so sorry that I didn't die first and mum did.'"

"And they were like, 'Yeah dad, why?' So I was like, 'Oh my God, I know what that feels like, I should've been the one. The guy goes first,'" he added.

Chapman also opened about how the change in dynamics with his kids, with him having total on the role of strict parent in Beth's absence.

"So that's hard for them... And I guess I'm the softy of the group, because I never wanted to punish. I said, 'Your mom is gonna get you if you don't do that.' So now I gotta be the one that does that, and I don’t like that and they don’t either," he told the outlet.

The Chapman family has been opening up to press about Beth's final days as they prepare for the premiere of new series, Dog's Most Wanted. Bonnie spoke with SurvivorNet about her mother's final moments of consciousness.

"My dad goes over and over and over what happened because he can't get it out of his head," Bonnie said in mid-August. "She quite literally choked on her cancer."

"My mom was naked in the bathroom and told my dad to look at her," she continued. "And he goes, 'I am looking at you.' And she goes, 'No, look at me.’ And then she was standing there and she started gasping."

"And my sister came into the room, and they called 911 immediately," Bonnie added “And that was the last moment that we really saw her completely conscious."

Dog's Most Wanted is set to chronicle Beth's final months as she and Dog track down some of the country's most sought-after criminals. The series will premiere Wednesday at 9 p.m. ET on WGN America.
