John Mayer seems to be on the verge of getting his own late night chat show, which would stream on Paramount-Plus, the CBS-affiliated streaming service.
Variety broke the story, reporting that the bandleader and Dead and Company member is in talks about a show that would be called Later and be based on the format of the long-running BBC series Later with Jools Holland. Citing “sources,” they say the show would feature performances and interviews with “musicians, artists and other cultural figures in a setting designed to look like an after-hours club for musicians.”
As for Mayer’s experience, they cite his Instagram Live show Current Mood, guest hosting The Late Late Show on CBS, following the departure of Craig Ferguson and, most recently, his TikTok videos, which have gotten upwards of 140 million views.
Katy Perry‘s stepping out with yet another shoe collection, which she’ll unveil on Amazon Live tomorrow (Thursday).
She promised to take questions from fans during the big reveal, which goes down at 2 pm ET. Selena McCartney, the lead designer of Katy’s brand, will be on hand, as will Summer House star Paige DeSorbo, who’ll show fans how to pair the kicks with cool outfits.
Katy’s probably hoping for a calmer launch compared to what her 2019 line generated — when some designs were pulled from shelves after multiple people suggested they had blackface connotations.
Justin Bieber might have really stepped in it this week — after sending fashion queen Victoria Beckham a pair of Crocs from his collection with the company.
The artist formerly known as Posh Spice of the Spice Girls seemed amused by the gift, which she unboxed in an Instagram story. Giggling, Victoria said, “A lot of people have been asking me what I’m planning on wearing after lockdown… What do we think about this suggestion from @justinbieber?! OK, this is so kind of Justin to send me some Crocs. Umm, I’ve never worn a pair of Crocs. They did make me laugh. It is the thought that counts. Thank you so much. Yeah, I’m not too sure what to say about this. But thank you!”
