Lily Rose Depp and Abel “The Weeknd” Tesfaye star in this very messed up romantic drama set in Hollywood. Created by Tesfaye and the mastermind behind Euphoria, Sam Levison, we’re expecting that this gritty drama will show us the glamour of stardom as well as reveal the dark underbelly of Tinseltown. The show is produced by A24 who have brought us some of the best films of last year such as Everything Everywhere All At Once, The Whale, X, Bodies Bodies Bodies, and Aftersun.

The show’s been in development since 2021 but it was revealed (perhaps accidentally!) by HBO’s Chairman and CEO Casey Bloys in a livestream during the Global Demand Awards that after the fourth season of The Succession we can expect to receive The Idol on our screens. As The Succession season four will run until the end of May we’re hoping The Weeknd’s brainchild will premiere in sometime in June.

The HBO original focuses on Jocelyn, played by Depp, a gorgeous young pop idol struggling to reclaim her title as the sexiest star in America after a nervous breakdown causes her last tour to be cancelled. When the mysterious and enigmatic self-help guru Tedros, played by the Weeknd, catches her eye in a club, the two embark on a fiery love affair, which will either save them or break them (our money’s on break).

Musician Troye Sivan, star of Shiva Baby and Bodies Bodies Bodies Rachel Sennott, rising actress Suzanna Son, Schitt’s Creek’s Dan Levy, and BLACKPINK‘s Jennie (in her acting debut) will all play a part in bringing The Idol to life.

In an interview with Elle last November, Depp said the biggest challenge when embodying Jocelyn was “understanding how alone you can feel, even when everybody’s watching you”. Pop idols Madonna, Britney Spears, and Mariah Carey were all used as reference points for Depp’s transformation. The actress also said she felt blessed to be working with Levinson and Tesfaye who are, “two people who make me feel incredibly safe and protected”. She called Tesfaye, “a really good friend who’s had my back”, saying, “We’ve gone on this wild ride together. It was a first for both of us in a lot of ways”.

So far, the three teaser trailer suggests the show will be packed with flashy convertibles, bright lights, sparkling mansions, slinky outfits, plenty of booze, sexy strip teases, many many drugs, and a crazy amount of sexual tension between the two leads. So basically, everything we love in a TV show. June can’t come soon enough.

The post The Weeknd’s New Show The Idol Is Set To Hit Screens In June – Here’s Everything We Know appeared first on Voir Fashion.

The Weeknd – ‘Call Out My Name’

The Weeknd is this generation’s master of love songs so it was tough to pick just one song of his our playlist. We settled on ‘Call Out My Name’ the stripped-back R&B ballad with a booming bassline that you’ll want to serenade your lover with. The lyric ‘call out my name when I kiss you so gently’ is sure to have them swooning.

Al Green – ‘Let’s Stay Together’

The smoothest love song around. Al Green’s ‘Let’s Stay Together’ is essential in any Valentine’s playlist. Play this heartfelt slow number this year and promise your partner you’ll love them “whether times are good or bad, happy or sad”.

Sade – ‘By Your Side’

This lush laid-back number from Sade will set the mood for a romantic evening whatever your plans are this Valentine’s Day. In the lyrics to ‘By Your Side’ Sade promises to always comfort her lover and lift them up. How much more romantic can you get?

Beyoncé – ‘Love On Top’

Beyoncé’s ‘Love on Top’ will have you feeling like Juliet as you bop along to this throwback with your Romeo. With four key changes and that beautiful whistle tone, the singer demonstrates why she’s number one on this track. Just like Beyoncé sings we hope you’ll be smiling ear to ear with this jubilant showstopper.

Frank Ocean – ‘Thinkin Bout You’

The certified platinum song ‘Thinkin Bout You’ is the perfect way to hint to your crush your feelings for them. The lyrics in the smooth modern R&B classic intimately express the longing that Ocean feels towards his crush and how he wonders if they feel the same way back. The silky production and Ocean’s gorgeous falsetto will have you feeling some type of way.

Steve Lacy – ‘Bad Habit’

‘Bad Habit’ took the world by storm last year with the song trending on TikTok and peaking at number one on the Billboard top 100. The yearning Lacy expresses in the lyrics paired with the dreamy backing vocals and sweet guitar riffs makes this song totally romantic. You and your crush will be harmonising to it together in no time.

Lana Del Rey – ‘Video Games’

‘Video Games’ is an early number from Lana’s catalogue but it’s still romantic as ever detailing Lana’s devotion to her lover. The singer is at the height of her glamourous Americana tragedy in this sweet song you can sway with your partner to. Lana’s crooning “it’s you, it’s you, it’s all for you/everything I do” is bound to get you feeling soppy.

Rihanna – ‘Love On the Brain’

Rihanna’s doo-wop and soul-inspired ballad ‘Love on the Brain’ has us all making gooey eyes. Rihanna channels a mix between Amy Winehouse and Etta James to bring us a romance song for the ages. It’s another necessity for a magical Valentine’s evening.

Prince – Purple Rain

The late great Prince knew the secrets to the heart. Though it’s sort of a breakup song it still conveys deep love and soul that means it would be a shame to discount it. This timeless classic is full of emotion and perfect for slow dancing with your lover around the living room.

The dress was designed by the legendary Vera Wang, who had made a pact with the singer 2 years prior at the Met Gala, promising to design her wedding dress when the day came. She more than delivered. Ari’s dress channeled her inner Audrey Hepburn with a gorgeous custom lily-white, silk charmeuse empire waist column gown. The dresses plunging back and the sculpted neckline is a modern take on a timeless classic, and the hand-pleated bubble veil topped with a bow is a nod to the iconic wedding scene in 50’s RomCom Funny Girl. It’s safe to say she truly did Hepburn justice.

Staying true to her signature look she wore a half-up version of her trademark ponytail, super smooth with a subtle middle parting. Her much-loved hairstylist Josh Liu created the beautiful updo, posting on Instagram that he ‘couldn’t be happier’ for the stunning bride.

Ariana’s glam was of course, immaculate. Makeup artist Ash K Holm created the matt masterpiece with brown winged eyeshadow, long lashes, a mauve-y lipstick and contour that could kill. Sadly, her glam team hasn’t disclosed which products they used for this minimal nuptial vibe.

To finish off the look, the ‘Positions’ singer wore pearl and diamond earrings by Lorraine Schwartz to match her engagement ring – which features one pearl next to an upside-down diamond, both of which carry huge significance in her life. Vogue reports that the story behind it is about “appreciating the lowest or the ‘upside down’ moments in her life and how they have contributed to where and who she is now.”

The ceremony was a small affair, with only 20 of their nearest and dearest attending. As predicted in her hit-song ‘Thank U, Next’ she walked down the aisle alongside her parents, Joan Grande and Ed Butera to awaiting husband-to-be Dalton Gomez standing under suspended flowers, wearing a pristine Tom Ford suit.

Now we have an influx of bridal companies pushing bowed veils and silk dresses permeating our Instagrams – the superstar has caused waves around the world. Congratulations to the happy couple!
