Review: Fifth Harmony's iHeartRadio show - Auckland Town Hall, July 2016.

When the five members of Fifth Harmony first took to the Auckland Town Hall Concert Chamber last night, it wasn’t to perform a show - it was first to be a part of a short Q&A, whereby giving their fans an opportunity to find out interesting things about the girl-group. As well as impersonating New Zealand accents (not as terribly as you’d expect), the girls mentioned their love for New Zealand, saying that they’re hoping to be back soon for a real show!

Must-listen: Allie X - 'All The Rage'.

Allie X has ascended. I can’t even pretend to comprehend the sorcery going on in her new song, 'All The Rage', but it’s really, well and truly something else.

About the new song, Allie says: "All the Rage is the night where you channel a lifetime of rejection and failure and turn it into something fantastic. While in the all the rage state of mind, you are encouraged to be manic, ridiculous and let your delusions guide you!"

‘THIS IS SUCH A BOP.

About the song, Banks says: "This song is about being your own best friend, your own mother, and your own lover."

As we all have learnt from Kimmy Schmidt, "Females are strong as hell."

Review: M·A·C x Chris Chang collection.

“China’s most outlandish fashion designer puts an acid-soaked twist on her modern M·A·C collection, featuring a vivid kaleidoscope of cutting-edge colour, inspired by the ancient Chinese art form Kunqu. Surreal hues of Lipstick, Cream Colour Base and Eye Shadow, and specially designed packaging, are saturated in her signature dramatic flair.”

The packaging itself for M·A·C’s new collaboration with Chinese fashion designer Chris Chang speaks volumes - it’s a crazy multi-coloured design, and each product reflects the packaging perfectly.
