How your voice sounds like & how you talk according to your 2nd & 3rd house 🗣:

Aries in the 2nd house & Taurus in the 3rd House:

Aries 2nd house people usually have a very husky/raspy voice and can talk pretty fast when they're excited or angry. Although, their Taurus in the 3rd house can make them more soft spoken in everyday life. If you get on their good side they will be sweet to you but if you piss them off they won't hestitate to drag you. They can be slick with their words. They are the type to be sneaky with their jokes and tease you without you even noticing till later what they said 💀 (Michael Jackson has this placement and everyone thinks he was so sweet but would literally sing 50 Cent in his car, cuss words and all lmao 😂)

Taurus in the 2nd house & Gemini in the 3rd house:

I know this sounds weird but Taurus 2nd house people talk more with their throat. Their voice sounds either very throaty or very nasally (I mean come on now - Shakira, Rihanna, G-Eazy, Cardi B, Heath Ledger, Stevie Nicks, AND Andrew Garfield. The proof is in the pudding). Their tone of voice is very unique but it's also attractive? They cound sound a little bit like they have a cold, its cute. If they are singers they use a lot of vibratto (don't worry I'll do a post on this too 🙄). Gemini in the 3rd house people could be very expressive with their faces when they talk and show a duality. They could also talk with different accents depending on who they are with.

Gemini in the 2nd house & Cancer in the 3rd house:

These people are very chatty around those they feel comfortable with. If they have a lot of air or fire in their birth chart they are friendly and love to socialize. If there is more earth and water they are shy but like to converse with whoever they are close to. Gemini 2nd house people tend to speak with a vocal fry. They could be emotional speakers as well with their Cancer in the 3rd house or they are good at making people feel heard during a conversation.

Cancer in the 2nd house & Leo in the 3rd house:

Their voices sound as if they're sleepy. Cancer 2nd house people's voices sound soft and airy. With a Leo in the 3rd house, they put some bass in their voice when they yell or get mad. Similar to a cat, they might be chill at first, and pur and meow, but if you piss them off they'll roar. They are very passionate and could choke up a bit or cry if they talk about a sensitive subject.

Leo in the 2nd house & Virgo in the 3rd house:

Leo 2nd house people growl as they talk, sing, or rap. Might even clear their throat before speaking. Could have some health problems with their throat or nose. They have the tendency to be congested. Virgo in the 3rd house could make them sound like a nerd when they talk about their interests 🤓

Virgo in the 2nd house & Libra in the 3rd house:

Virgo 2nd house people have very thin voices and typically sound high pitched, it's like their voices sound like it's struggling to come out (if their is voice is deeper it will sound gravely like Tyler, The Creator). They could require voice lessons or speech therapy at some point in their life. Possibly has social anxiety. Has or could develop a lisp. Talented when it comes to using their voice for entertainment like voice acting, reporting, speeches, singing, rapping, etc. (Margot Robbie as Harley Quinn or Eddie Murphy as Mushu and Donkey). With their Libra in the 3rd house they could have a way with words. They could be very charming when they speak and like to flirt. Might even turn on the charm to get what they want (I'm guilty of this).

Libra in the 2rd house & Scorpio in the 3rd house:

There is two spectrums with these people. On one hand their voices are very attractive and the way they speak can be sensual... or they can be vulgar and/or hilarious (1. Ice Spice, Michael B. Jordan, Usher, Lauren Jauregui, Keanu Reeves, Meagan Good, & Idris Elba 2. Dave Chapelle, Will Ferrell, Tom Hanks, Kevin Hart, & Ryan Reynolds 3. Dolly Parton & Childish Gambino are both great at singing and know how to do comedy). They are great at entertaining a crowd and could be the host at parties. They know how to make people laugh and blush, it's their way of seducing.

Scorpio in the 2nd house & Sagittarius in the 3rd house:

This combination can cause them to be poetic and philosophical. They are great when it comes it expressing their inner most personal thoughts. When angered, they will let you let you feel their wraith (I mean have you heard Beyoncé on her Lemonade album or Doja Cat on her lives? Lmao they do not fuck around). Their language is very blunt and they cuss a lot (Britney Spears: "Holy shitballs!" 😃 *starts spinning*). Scorpio 2nd house people voices are clear and deep (yes, like the ocean) but if they are around someone they talk in a baby voice. It's so funny too it's like they're usually this badass but then out of nowhere there's this silly high pitched voice 😭 (Kendrick Lamar: "put the pussy on a pedestal ~ put the pussy on a high stool ~ that pussy to die for, yeah that pussy to DIE for ~🎵") Honestly they're just crazy lmao

Sagittarius in the 2nd house & Capricorn in the 3rd house:

These people are SHADYYY. They love to throw shade (Prince) or air out people's dirty laundry if you do them wrong (Taylor Swift, Katy Perry, & Halsey have some of their biggest songs about their exes lol). These people are petty as hell! Sagittarius 2nd house can also give good advice and with their Capricorn in the 3rd house, they have a lot of wisdom to share. A teacher to those around. They will also tell you things about themselves but know not to overshare. They like to have the upperhand in a conversation and keep their next move a secret. They tend to speak "as a matter of factually" and come off as having a careless attitude if they smile. A lot of them speak with a similar tone as well (Anne Hathaway, Jada Pinkett Smith, Mila Kunis, Scarlett Johansson, Winona Ryder, and Kim Kardashian don't have the same voice but their Capricorn tone and Aquarius speech pattern is obvious to me). The men can seem very cool and relaxed, almost the bad boy type (Justin Bieber, Brad Pitt, Nicolas Cage, Eminem, & Elvis Presley).

Capricorn in the 2nd house and Aquarius in the 3rd:

These people are eccentric and are unique. They like to have a persona so they can keep their personal lives private. Their voices sound a bit quirky (I remember watching a interview with Adriana Lima and a lot of people were surprised to hear how she actually sounded).

Aquarius in the 2nd house and Pisces in the 3rd:

These people sound so cute imo??? Jimin from BTS, Ariana Grande, Zac Efron, Ashanti, & Jordin Sparks all have this placement and their voice is so soft like a cloud. Their sense of humor is weird and silly. They are quiet in comparison to others and are probably told often to speak louder. Or they could be slow talkers. Overall just really mellow people lol

Pisces in the 2nd house and Aries in the 3rd house:

These people are motivational speakers (Barack Obama) and are often being quoted for their iconic sayings (Nicki Minaj, Naomi Campbell, Zendaya, & Alicia Silverstone). They know how to connect to people and they are passionate when it comes to helping others. Most likely will be the person to stand up to a bully and defend the person being picked on. Pisces is caring while Aries is bold yet impulsive. These people need to practice "thinking before speaking" because it has a greater affect on not just themself but those around them.

For drabblepalooza: Can’t Remember to Forget You by Shakira ft. Rihanna with fuckboy!ex!Yoongi please!

P.S.: This is such a fun idea. I love how creative you are, Jade-nim 💚

P.P.S.: I’m gonna send you a message with my age because I neeeeed this and don’t want to get bounced at the door!

oh shit! i haven’t heard this song since it came out and by god, it’s still a banger.

cw: exes au, fuckboy!yoongi, protected sex, oral sex (f receiving,) p in v penetration, ref to squirting, yoongi is a menace.

When Jiyu asked you to be her Maid of Honor, you knew it was going to be a clusterfuck. As her best friend, you wouldn’t dream of saying no to her. As the best man’s ex-girl, you’d created a nightmare by saying yes.

Last night’s rehearsal dinner went exactly the way you knew it would. You did your best to mitigate the chaos that was your friend group, but you’d failed. You tried to stay sober, but you’d failed. You tried to keep your eyes off Min Yoongi and his goddamn gold chain, but —

Could it even be deemed a failure if there was never any hope of succeeding?

Jimin, half-cut and scheming, kept furnishing you with overfilled glasses of pinot noir. You’d protested, told him over and over and over that you couldn’t get through the ceremony with a hangover. Had he sustained your objection? No.

Had you actually meant it when you objected? Also no.

At the bottom of a bottle, you’d found a headache and the absolute audacity. You’d then walked right up to Min Yoongi and declared — unprompted — that you would not be hooking up with him at this wedding. He’d looked at you, unbothered, and said, “Bet.”

And he’d been right not to believe you.

You’d survived him escorting you down the aisle prior to the ceremony; and you’d withstood the way his smirk always seemed to find you over the shoulders of the two exchanging vows between you. Through the ride to the photoshoot location and the shoot itself, you stayed on task and away from him. Even during your respective speeches, you’d refused to let him get to you.

Your final task, however, seemed to be designed to kill you. It’d started with Jiyu’s mother handing you a giant, godforsaken box of rose petals; shoving you and Yoongi towards the exit; and instructing you both to decorate the honeymoon suite.

It’s tradition, she’d gushed. It’s torture, you’d thought.

It had ended up with you and your ex-boyfriend alone, semi-buzzed, in a room specifically intended for one purpose. You were doomed. You knew it — and judging by that look in his eye, so did Yoongi.

Cut to: Yoongi looking at you and flicking his tongue out to wet his smirking lips.

Cut to: Yoongi innocently touching your hip as he reached around you for a handful of petals to scatter.

Cut to: Yoongi’s pelvis brushing against your ass as he passed behind you towards the bed.

Cut to:

“I’m curious,” he hums, “Did you forget your declaration last night and your panties?”

His tongue flattens and drags up over your cunt, lapping up the orgasm he was so quick to pull from you. You can’t respond because you’re still rocketing through different planes of existence. Astral projecting, fucked into oblivion — yet again — by that fiend and his goddamn tongue.

Yoongi stands and your trembling continues — not solely because of the aftershocks you’re still experiencing, but because he’s undoing his belt with one hand and fishing a condom out of his pocket with the other.

It’s masterful because of course it is; he’s well-practiced.

“Or did you purposefully forego them both because you can’t forget me?”

He’s smirking as he rolls the condom down his length, amusement dripping — like you — with his words. You can’t even generate a response to his teasing. All you have to offer is a moan as he lines himself up and sheaths himself in you.

Yoongi rolls his hips, grinding into every stupid part of you, and your reply is merely to whimper. Like his pace, his teasing is relentless. He grits his teeth and punctuates his sentences with unimaginably deep thrusts, “Don’t pretend you don’t remember, doll — I hear how wet this pussy is — squeezing me like this because your body — refuses to let me go.”

The comforter you’d dutifully covered in rose petals is now clutched in your white-knuckled fists. Just like Yoongi, those petals press against your sweat-slicked skin. Would they stick to you afterwards, the way he always seemed to?

You shove your guilt into the back of your brain and resolve to feel like a bad person later. For now, all you’re capable of feeling is Yoongi rearranging your goddamn guts.

“I may need a reminder, though,” he laughs menacingly while his hand drops from the nipple he’d been pinching to your clit. A wolfish grin spreads across his face; you jolt the second his finger flicks over your clit, “Am I still the only one who can make you squirt?”

Thinking Actors Gewis Au

stealing this from the show Arrow. They are filming for a tv show. Lewis is the main actor. George was only supposed to be in the first episode only but Lewis and everyone was so impressed by George that he became a recurring character in season 1. Then season 2 onwards, he is a regular character. Lewis was supposed to have someone else as his love interest but George and Lewis’ on screen chemistry changes the love interest discourse. The producers and writers building up a storyline for the characters since the beginning but it’s a slow burn. The characters don’t get together until season 4? maybe?

the chemistry is chemistrying from the starting for the fans. they wouldn’t mind having two beautiful men get together in the show.

the chemistry is chemistrying outside of the show too but it’s jokingly more than anything when the fans see them in interviews and promotions stuff until…

the premiere of season 2? 3? (don’t ask me the timeline. i have no clue). During one of the fan event, Lewis is talking about music and karaoke and a fan shouts Shakira (there were dating rumours months ago) but Lewis goes “Hips don’t lie doesn’t suit me. It suits him” while pointing at George and continuing “he would say his hips don’t lie.” And then George brings up how he always hears Lewis sing in the room next door and he doesn’t know if Lewis is trying to distract him or soothe him (of course i brought this in, i just had to). The fans (it’s us. we are the fans) go crazy because those are some very insane things to say about your co-worker. that’s when the real shipping starts

^^yes i had to include that moment. why wouldn’t i

a fan asks Lewis if he is dating George and Sebastian replies “he wishes”

a fan asks George if he is dating Lewis and Alex replies “in his dreams” with the biggest smile

^^not on the same day or even the month. Just wanted moments where Alex and Seb are being little shits

one of the scenes in the earlier season gets too intense. Everyone on set thought Lewis and George were gonna kiss the way they kept leaning in closer so the director yells cut. Lewis is glad they did because he was definitely gonna kiss George (the intensity of the characters’ first kiss makes the build up worth it)

during an interview, the interviewer brings up Gewis shipping. George tries to steer back the conversation back to the show but Lewis realises what he is doing. Lewis being the evil menace he is, he puts George on spot by cutting in and saying “no. they mean Gewis as in me and you.” George is too stunned to speak and just looks at Lewis

or maybe vice versa. Lewis tries to change the subject but George goes they are talking about me and you (i don’t know which option i like more—actually no, that’s a lie. i think i like the first option more)

little interview moments where they are blatantly staring at each other. one interview had george yapping as always and lewis staring at him while licking his lips the whole time

their characters finally kiss and get together on the last episode of the season. it’s trending on twitter for days

when Gewis and the other actors are asked what their favourite filming scene from that season, Gewis answer their kissing scene. They don’t elaborate on it

the speculations get worse during the break between the seasons and Gewis are seen hanging out together all the time

the worst of it happens when someone from the casts posts a picture of the cast getting dinner. there is a hint of lewis’ hand on George’s thigh. fans catch on it. we would know that tattooed hand anywhere

+ Bonus

their relationship is confirmed years later when Lewis wins an award and he gives a thank you speech and talks about George. George rushes to the stage and kisses Lewis

or George wins an award and Lewis is the one presenting it so when he gets on stage, he just kisses Lewis and it’s the first thing he does (even before collecting his award)

I brought up Bowser and Luigi being secretly married, but what if they accidentally got married? You know that story of Luigi using Peachs’ extra dress yo pose as Peach? What if… something happens where Peach leaves, Magen on vacation doesn’t have to be bad, Luigi takes over as ruler in her absence. But he does it like on adventure time where he uses her dress and a wig and calls himself a princess. (Which like Luigi nonbinary icon slay) let’s say Luigi gets stolen from behind, something tied around his mouth and nose, and tied up. Gets taken to Bowser who is waiting at the and immediately married. At first Luigi is angry, ofc, but then while Bowser takes him home he starts apologizing for how things happened and explaining why he did what he did, what he plans to do to their kingdoms now that they’re together (which like was surprisingly good things to Luigi) Luigi started to feel bad.

I like the idea of like them getting closer as Luigi is dressed up as Peach and feeling bad. All while Bowser knew the whole time and didn’t say anything to see how far he’d go with it. They both fall in love, ofc. Imagine Luigi running away, Bowser chasing him, they’re in a stand off, and Luigi gives a big speech saying he’s been lying *takes wig off* these hips do lie and they lie to you Bowser shakira Shakira. Bowser chuckles and says he knew the whole time. Luigi’s like whaaaaaaaaat????? They confess. And then BOOM Mario and Peach comes to save him, but Luigi says it’s cool guys. They all have tea at Peach’s castle and Mario laughs saying like good thing you guys aren’t actually married aha. And the bowser says no they are. Everyone else is like HUH?! Bowser takes out the marriage certificate and it says Bowser and Luigi. That Luigi signed. With his name. Mario and peach turn to Luigi who’s red in the face and neevously chuckles oops making the two facepalm. Bowser gets up and says he’ll help Luigi pack up his things winky face at Luigi and walks out. Luigi springs up and follows him while Mario and Peach continue to sip on their tea. Peach says I knew your brother liked him the whole time.

Love songs

Pairing: Lewis Hamilton x Reader

Request: Hey beauty, how are you doing?

Could you do something like lewis is dating a singer and then she makes a love song for him? Or a song about ending?The one - Shakira played on the radio and I thought it would be cute to dedicate it to someone...

Warnings: None

Masterlist

"And this one goes to my beautiful, beautiful boyfriend." You told the crowd. "The love of my life and the reason I keep singing."

At the mention of said boyfriend, the crowd's screams had somehow gotten even louder.

Chuckling at their excitement, you waited for the sound of the band to start up. When they didn’t, you looked back to see if something had gone wrong that you didn't know about.

Instead of panicking bandmates, you were instead greeted with the sight of your aforementioned boyfriend. A cheeky smile on his face and his arms out wide for you.

"Lewis." You screamed, throwing yourself at him.

Lewis, of course, caught you and let you kola onto him as you nuzzled your nose into his neck.

"Hey, baby." Lewis greeted.

"I can't believe you are here." You whispered into him. "I didn't think you could make it."

"Nope. I got the first flight I could out and got to you as soon as possible" Lewis shook his head. "I didn't want to miss this."

This, being the fact that you were finally getting to perform your first concert post covid. And even better, it was at your home venue.

Sadly due to a mix up you though that there had been a scheduling clash and Lewis wouldn't be able to make it. Something that had thankfully not come to pass.

"Sing with me." You begged Lewis

"Of course, Love." Lewis nodded, kissing your cheek. "I did promise, didn't I?"

"Yep." You nodded your head. "On a live for everybody to see no less." You teased him.

"Well then. How about we give them a show?" Lewis asked you. A teasing smirk on his face as you dragged him to the microphone on the mic stand.

"So, for those of you that don't know." You said into the mic. "This is my previously mentioned boyfriend. Lewis Hamilton, eight-time F1 world champion."

Lewis sent you a gentle, teasing glare at your comment, and the crowd hollered.

"Or you can just call me a WAG." Lewis teased. "Or should it be HAB?"

Laughing, you gestured at the band to start up. Sending your crew two thumbs up and a beaming smile.

Smiling back at you, they finally stayed playing the intro to your song. A song that you wrote about Lewis Hamilton. The beautiful man singing beside you.

The two of you sing together. Because, of course, your boyfriend knew every word. And you two danced together as if no one was watching, as Lewis dips and twirls you. And it was beautiful, and it was amazing. And you felt as if, by some miracle, you had fallen into your own romance movie.

As the song finally draws to an end, Lewis twirls you out. And when you turn back, it’s to your fan base's collective cheering and sobbing. Because there. On one knee. Is Lewis Hamilton. A ring box firmly clasped in his hands as he looks up at you adoringly.

"My love." Lewis Hamilton starts as suddenly the stadium goes deathly quiet. Everyone leaning in to hear what he has to say. "You are the love of my life and the reason I keep racing. You are the reason that I get up in the morning and the reason I strive to make the world a better place. You are my driving force and why I am who I am today. You are the reason that I still have hope. And you are why I still see all the love in this world. You are the reason that my world keeps spinning. And without you, my life is meaningless. So my love, with your home crowd and your people watching, I ask you. Will you marry me?"

Somewhere through his speech, you had started to cry. Tears of love and adoration streamed down your face as you looked at the man you loved most in this world.

"Yes." You whispered, your head nodding fervently. "God, yes. Yes, yes, yes." You repeated, getting louder as you went.

Grinning, Lewis Hamilton rose to his feet, and you threw yourself at him for the second time this evening. Wrapping yourself around him. Laughing giddy, Lewis Hamilton slowly grabbed your hand, slipping the ring onto your finger. Of course, it was a perfect fit in all ways.

Laughing, you kissed him as hard as you could. Pouring all your love for him into it as you wordlessly told him how much you loved him and wanted to marry him too.

When you finally parted, it was to the deafening screams of the crowd. Laughing, you showed the glittering rock on your finger to one of the cameras so that everybody could see the ring on your finger.

Laughing and crying and smiling, you were the happiest you had ever been. Because this was precisely where you were supposed to be. You were on stage in front of your home crowd. With the love of your life who had just asked you to marry him. The ultimate declaration of love. Your life really was a romance, and you wouldn't change any of it for anything.

Manifiesto de amor rascuache / 10 de marzo de 2024 *Votos, botox, vows, vowels, bows, bowls, bowels, exvotos matrimoniales

Five years ago, a customs officer asked me:

Something to declare?

Nada. So, I said: Nothing.

Palabras nomás.

Just words. But you can make things with words, you know. Linguists say so.

Acts of speech create a change in the world or cause something to happen.

For example: I love you.

For example: I’m thankful for this love that is mine but is yours but is mine.

Amar no es un acto de habla, pero decir te amo, sí.

Aceptar es un acto de habla.

Agradecer es mi acto de habla favorito.

Something to declare?

Actually, yes. Mi mundo a cuestas, como el caracol.

Everything I was carrying then I’m offering it to you now.

Something blue. The ocean in my mind. El mar del desierto. El Paso’s sea. Sí. The majestic sky we saw from The Wallace, que era como si el mundo se pusiera de cabeza.

Something old: my body and its limits. This machine made from steel y masa de pan. Este cuerpo que aprende a cuidarse, cuidando.

Este cuerpo que deshielaste con tu amor solar.

I don’t know how to translate this!

Let’s say my body was frozen, and your warmth helped me thaw.

To quote the Colombian poet Shakira: Te regalo mi cintura y mis labios para cuando quieras besar.

Mi casa, tu casa.

I also brought something new.

I’ve told you, el rascuachismo construye algo nuevo con piezas viejas.

New sensations for this old body, que creía haberlo conocido todo.

Nueva la tranquilidad. La inner peace. Feeling safe and right where I belong.

Aflojar la panza del alma.

Put my feet up, emotionally.

Not even Paul McCartney taught me how to let it be.

You did.

Tú, con tu amor presente permanente.

Así es.

Presente perfecto.

Así ha sido.

I’ll explain the grammar later. I know you struggle with verb tenses.

Yo también batallo con la tensión.

But, really, your love! Qué cosa, what a majestic thing.

En Estados Unidos todo es grande, ¡pero tu amor! Your love is the super large sized item no longer in the menu. Amor que no tiene llenadera, no secret agenda, no genera deuda.

In the country of debt, yo encontré a un socialista del amor.

Something borrowed is my language, which was gonna be yours, too.

Te lo cambio por my broken English.

Porque por amarte he llegado amar tu idioma.

A amar tu país, aunque sea la puntita.

Algunos idioms, like: having a heavy heart.

Like: having it in the right place.

Herding cats.

Un corazón cargado como un árbol, en el lugar correcto.

Two dominant languages continentally abrazándose.

La magia del rascuachismo sólo podía ocurrir aquí, en la frontera, en esta herida abierta.

There’s a wall. But we have a stair. Una escalera grande y otra chiquita y arriba y arriba.

Más fast, más fast!

Something to declare?

Yes.

Te declaro mi amor rascuache.

Rascuache love saca lo máximo de lo mínimo. Amor que aprovecha todo. Zero waste. Not recycled but upcycled. Collage. Kintsugi. Hechizo. A quilt.

Amor rascuache is the sensitivity of critters. One Dominican raccoon y un tlacuache mexicano entran a un bar

and they order fruit

y un millón de pequeñas nadas.

Amor rascuache parece no tener sentido, pero lo tiene.

Pero en inglés el sentido no se tiene, se hace, se construye.

Makes sense.

Como una ciudad hecha de dos ciudades.

Como el amor.

Te regalo mi locura y las pocas neuronas que quedan ya.

I give you this blue, old, new and borrowed me.

This will be a good day, amor.

Va a estar bueno!

I believe so.

Chances are.

Chance sí.

Sí significa mar, significa yes.

Are you happy, Codell?

Ojalá que sí.

Because I am, amor. I am.

Thank you.

Anon who asked a summary of Måneskin's recent interviews, under the cut there are a few :)

Che Tempo che Fa

It starts with compliments to the beauty and power of The Loneliest. Fabio Fazio is a big fan and comments that it is the first ballad in English, then they joke that it's the first time they have had sofas in their studio. Dami says hi to his mom and says something like, "Hey mum watch me!"

They start by talking about the fact that Måneskin are always around the world and that it must be difficult to realize what's going on. Dami says they actually have little time to realize what is happening but that they also manage to enjoy the moment, especially on big stages, like Rio and Coachella.

Fabio says Ethan has a philosophy, don't take things too seriously, Ethan confirms. Then they retrace the early days of the group's formation, how Thomas and Vic met in middle school, etc. and they also make a recap of all the nominations for future awards.

Speaking of The Loneliest Damiano clarifies, once again, that when he said that he risked dying while shooting the video he was joking, even if at the moment he'd been really afraid; then there is a dig at the headlines that are always too melodramatic.

After, Vic says that the reason for their success is mainly in their authenticity (she is almost voiceless, so she says she shouted too much on her sister's birthday the day before), Ethan adds that the music is cyclical and that's another reason why rock is coming back.

Fabio asks what they do in the evening when they are abroad. Damiano says Vic and Tom often party and Tom says they go around clubs and get to know the cities.

Later they also talk about the fact that they have had many experiences that have made them grow professionally but that they are still in their twenties. Speaking of the cliche 'sex drugs and rock and roll' Damiano jokes that he's always naked because it is hot on stage and that he's not the only one of the 4 to undress, but in the rest of the time he's just a normal guy (they show photos of him with Chili). He adds that the cliché about drugs is outdated and that out of respect for themselves and the public they have to put themselves in a position to always give 100%.

They also talk about how they chased after Shakira to take pictures with her, or that at the Cannes Film Festival, in a super chic evening Thomas took off his shirt and started dancing, so the security wanted to kick him out. Vic says that when they meet famous people they pretend to be calm, then as soon as they're alone they go wild and can't believe it really happened.

Fabio says that Måneskin are transgressive in a serious way, in the sense that they always say what they think and that they are not afraid to take sides, as in the case of the speech against Putin.

Always talking about the VIPs they met, Thomas says the craziest encounter for him was with Slash, Damiano says Keith Richards, for Vic it was Iggy Pop and Ethan tells about Dakota Johnson cooking eggs for them.

Then they remember all the tour dates and announce those in the stadiums in Rome and Milan. At the end there is a little joke with Luciana Littizzetto who is a comedian, Fabio asks the band to pretend to remember who Luciana is, but she's actually very famous in Italy (there is a person in the audience with a strange laugh, Damiano bursts out laughing and can't stop). When Luciana enters she jokes with Fabio and tells him to tattoo the line with which he usually launches the advst on his chest, instead of "Il Ballo della Vita". Vic instead asks him to take off his shirt.

RADIO 101

They start off by talking about the tour dates and how long they've been home over the last year. Vic says about one month in total. They are asked if they are anxious before an important concert, Dami Vic and Ethan make fun of Thomas who is the one who is sometimes nervous, like before Rock in Rio and Circo Massimo. Thomas says it depends on the situation, for example the first time they played The Loneliest in London it was very important to them so he was much more nervous.

Damiano says that of all the VIP meetings the most important was the one with Keith Richards who told them “I don't know who the fuck you are but they told me that you are good and that you actually play guitar, keep it up”.

They say they are always in such a hurry that since this summer they hardly even do the sound check before a concert, but still have no free time.

Speaking of the hardest audience to conquer, Thomas says it was very important to be able to conquer an audience made of rock fans, like at Rock 'em Ring or at the Stones concert. Vic jokes that sometimes when they ask the audience to crouch and then jump there are metalheads who just look at them in disgust and stand still with their arms crossed. Damiano also jokes about those people, because maybe to stay in the front row at Rock in Rio they have been there for three days, so he says in Roman 'pijatela bene', that means let yourself go, have fun. Then they add that conquering the smaller stages at festivals is really difficult.

Vic says that it's her fault if there's always pizza in the dressing rooms, because it's she who wants it and that they eat a little before the concerts and again after, while Damiano has a closed stomach and he doesn't eat, either before or after.

They ask him how they define success. They joke that the real success is to have a Lamborghini then more seriously that the most shocking thing is to have the crowd abroad singing songs in Italian, like in Chile, or to be recognized every three steps at Copa Cabana. Damiano says he felt like the Brazilian national team.

Thanks to Måneskin, many young people start playing an instrument while until a few years before they wanted to be DJs. Vic says that she started playing because she saw a Danish movie as a child and that therefore certain things can affect a whole life. Thomas says he really appreciates it when fans tell him they started playing guitar seeing him and remembers that when he started he was the 'weird' guy because playing an instrument was not common.

A parody with the music of Zitti e Buoni starts and instead of the original lyrics there are all the things the band has done in the last few months. They ask Måneskin when they realized they were really going to break through. Ethan says that it was when they saw Beggin climb to the top of all the charts. Also, Damiano says it was when they went to Jimmy Fallon for the second time.

They ask what they would do in an alternate universe if they weren't musicians. Damiano laughs, says he would be doing high school for the sixth time.

Talking about other musicians, Vic says they've wanted to see the Artic Monkeys for five years and they never manage.

They got asked if they have ever thought of switching roles. Ethan says it already happened when they did a cover of Seven Nations Army. Ethan played bass, Vic the guitar and Tom the drums. Damiano sang because he can't play anything and Thomas says they can't sing. Then they laugh because it was a disaster.

Someone else's songs they like to the point they'd have liked to be thier own are: Baby I'm Gonna Leave you for Tom, Ethan says Can't Stop by RHCP, Dami Dream On by Aerosmith and Vic's answer I cannot hear properly, sorry ^^'

Since Måneskin have won everything (and maybe they will sign up for Miss Italia), the radio awards them useless prizes. The band itself has to vote: the award for the stingiest goes to Tom. Everyone wants the prize for being the one who showers the most, but Vic says the other three always make fun of her saying she is the one who washes the least, but that's not true, and they enjoy embarrasing her with people just met (Dami and Tom high five behind her back). The prize for the one who wakes up later is a good match between Tom and Vic. The one who eats the most is still Thomas. The one who looks at the phone the most is Damiano. The one who always loses everything is Damiano again. The most messy is Thomas, but Dami says Vic's room is a safari. The one who gets the most bras on stage is Ethan. Strange things arrived on stage are mostly underwear and fetish stuff. Their best memory, for Dami is Sanremo: he still cannot explain how it was even possible.

Thomas says that there is an alchemy between them and that their success has been a natural process even if it always takes a lot of effort and discipline, also because they are always in the spotlight and everything they do gets judged.

Damiano, however, comments that even knowing absolutely nothing about an artist contributes to idolizing people too much and it is not a healthy thing because in the end everyone is human and everyone has flaws.

The interviewer reminds them that a few days earlier Manuel Agnelli was there: he said that the great merit of Måneskin is that they manage the success they are getting, and above all that Måneskin have brought the attention of the public and record companies back to rock music played live, with real instruments, especially among young people. The band says it's a big responsibility but also a very nice thing.

Still citing Manuel Agnelli, who spoke of the "dictatorship of numbers", the guys say that they don't pay much attention to numbers, they don't really read the statistics and they don't even know how many gold records they have won. Thomas says fixating on numbers drives people crazy. Damiano adds that it's a fake feedback, that numbers matter, but they aren't the only important thing.

Speaking of seeing other people's concerts, Vic says they do it out of passion, because music is not just a job but a passion as well. Tom adds that their inspiration also comes from everyday life and normal things.

They ask a question each, they start with Ethan talking about the role of the drummer, who is often the wise man of the group because he has to dictate the timing. Ethan says that's the way it is and that since he started playing with others he has had to become more empathetic and understand how others interpreted time and music, because there has to be a dialogue between them, especially with the bass.

They ask Damiano how he manages his role as frontman, if he manages to calibrate what little narcissism it takes to be on the front line. Damiano says he never really asked himself this question. That since he's the one who can move without instruments it has always come naturally to him to accentuate the music with the movements of the body. They also ask him why he has clearly exposed himself against Putin when many artists prefer to remain silent. Damiano says that he's not only a singer but also a person free to express an opinion and that there are arguments that leave little room for interpretation, such as war.

With Vic they talk about the tradition of women playing bass, because there are many of them and therefore they ask how her passion for the instrument was born. Vic says she startedat school with classical guitar but she wasn't happy with it, so she started experimenting. The transition to bass came naturally the first time she played with an amp.

With Thomas they talk about the guitar in The Loneliest which recalls that of Tom Morello of Rage Against the Machines. Thomas says that he usually writes music instinctively, so while working on The Loneliest he used the pedal (that Morello is the pioneer of) and the music came out on its own, without voluntarily mentioning anyone.

Finally, quoting Vasco Rossi they speak of the feeling of loneliness that a musician can feel immediately after a concert. Vic says they don't have the time lately, but that when they were less famous it was often the case that they felt lost after a concert, not knowing what to do next.

Shakira gets revenge ... and she gets paid!

"Shakira's claim to her autobiography makes a moralist society very uncomfortable. It finds itself today questioning whether there should be limits for somebody to showcase their pain over an infidelity. Make no mistake, the pattern of pitiful jilted women is part of a long-gone macho past.

If revenge is a dish that is served cold, especially when it originates from a love disappointment of a colossal dimension, with what moral authority or intellectual superiority do inquisitive upstarts of the 21st century dare to tell a grown woman that she has suffered the offense of betrayal, who knows for how long, how she has to manage her emotions correctly or what she must do to overcome her suffering in private so she doesn't inconvenience those who had no compassion or pity on her? Both their impertinence and arrogance are directly proportional to their lack of empathy or understanding to recognize and identify with those who have been able to rise up against pain, lies and humiliation.

It doesn't matter if it's Shakira, a world-renowned artist, or the anonymous daughter of a neighbor. Those who claim the right to act as members of a police of good customs or elegant ways to tell women who are heartbroken, how to express their sadness or anger in accordance with conventional norms are wrong. They should find out once and for all that the times of self-righteousness in which dirty laundry was washed at home are long gone. If the shoe fits, let it fall on the foot it fits on the best. Neither cheap prudery nor submission should be tolerated to the machismo of a society that cancels women.

Hours were enough for the powerful feminist manifesto from Barranquillera, materialized in a song without its own name, but identified as BZRP Music Session #53, to rise up as an unprecedented social phenomenon that exceeded its musical dimension in itself. Phrase after phrase, each one more scathing than the last, the song demonstrates how Shakira, through what she does best: artistic creation, has fitted in with admirable resilience, but also with anger, sadness and frustration – what woman in her situation wouldn't feel them?– the betrayal of your most loved one and the one you fully trusted: former soccer player Gerard Piqué, a teammate for the last 12 years of your life and father of your 2 children. Yes, the rookie whom she was too much for.

Judge her, as some did after listening to the song, appealing to bombastic speeches in which she is accused of objectifying herself and her ex-husband's new partner, Clara Chía –the one with the name of a good person–, for comparing herself to watches and cars or for allegedly exceeding in offensive epithets against him, it is an irrelevant matter of double standards. Although they have every right to do so, it seems that the artist's inspectors have never felt firsthand the savage grief of lack of love, nor have they experienced the need to express it with poetic cruelty. Good for them. While they pontificate, unaware of the healing power, absolutely cathartic, of singing a few truths to those who have destroyed your life, Shakira gets paid and in what way. Not only does she literally sing her spite without any restraint, but she is also strong, almost heroic, licking her wounds in the depths of her mourning to vindicate how humiliated women are also capable of getting up, even carrying the weight of their own corpse.

Shakira's autobiographical proclamation is uncomfortable. It's what artists do and she is. Don't forget. Piqué damaged the wolf that now howls against him. This relentless diva breaks the mold about the convenient silences around the breakups of famous and wealthy couples, lectures other women on how to empower themselves after being scorned and publicly displays her heart broken into a thousand pieces with extraordinary dignity. Nothing more epic than taking revenge with talented fury after loving without limits and being betrayed. End of story. Why the subtleties when there are plenty of reasons to free oneself from the oppressive corset of the pitiful scorned woman. Shakira pointed out a path that it is difficult for many of her followers to retrace."

#this is the article Shakira shared on her stories this morning.#worth reading and totally true ❤️❤️❤️❤️#definitely tells you everything you need to know about her #mama is healing and doesn't care what people have to say about it 😭❤️#shakira
