The Little K-Pop Song That Could: How FIFTY FIFTY’s ‘Cupid’ Became a Global Sensation

Mike Wass “Cupid” by Fifty Fifty (stylized as FIFTY FIFTY) has become the little K-pop song that could. Released by independent label Attrakt (stylized as ATTRAKT), the irresistibly bouncy lament on modern love has grown into a crossover phenomenon on the back of organic social media virality, clever marketing and a “Twin Version” in English. So far, “Cupid” has peaked at No. 4 on Spotify’s Global 200 and on YouTube’s Global Top Songs chart, and No. 41 on the Billboard Hot 100. And that’s before Warner Records, who recently picked up the banger for North America, takes it to radio. So where did Fifty Fifty and their seemingly unstoppable hit come from? In order to compete with major power players like HYBE and YG Entertainment, Attrakt — under the guidance of K-pop svengali Sung-Il Ahn (known as SIAHN) — tore up the rulebook. Realizing they lacked the financial resources and corporate infrastructure of their competitors, the indie label opted for innovation.

U.K. Writers Told They Can Work on Pre-Existing Streamer Projects But Can’t Secure New Work During WGA Strike

Manori Ravindran Executive Editor of International After several writers told Variety they’ve been frustrated about the lack of clarity around the rules for projects set up with the U.K. branches of “struck” companies like Disney or Netflix, but aren’t covered by WGA terms, the Writers’ Guild of Great Britain has attempted to clarify the rules of play. On Thursday, the WGGB emailed members and provided an update on its website FAQ section, and all signs seem to indicate that “pre-existing” projects can continue, but new work for the U.K. subsidiaries of “struck” companies will be discouraged. One question reads: “I am currently partway through a series/contract with a U.K.-based U.S. producer who is a WGA MBA signatory company — what should I do?”

‘The Artifice Girl’ Review: A Thought-Provoking Speculative Drama About AI Bait For Online Predators

Dennis Harvey Film Critic Artificial Intelligence has been increasingly in the news of late, with observers worried that it will soon become difficult for teachers to tell if students actually completed a project themselves (or a program did it for them), for anyone to recognize whether a supposed breaking evidential video is in fact a deepfake, and so forth. “The Artifice Girl,” however, frames the problems raised by ever-growing technological sophistication in a familiar narrative framework: that of the machine intelligence that begins to surpass its human “masters.”  Unlike portrayals from “2001” to “Ex Machina” and beyond, however, Franklin Ritch’s debut feature does not treat that dynamic in thriller terms, as a hostile takeover. Instead, this smaller-scaled speculative fiction is more concerned with ethics, as pondered in a series of dialogue sequences that aren’t static but might also have worked on stage, and require nothing in the way of FX. The results may not be what fantasy fans in need of action and spectacle are looking for. But Ritch’s film, which won the Best International Feature Audience Award at Fantasia last year, is engaging food for thought for viewers willing to let ideas rather than visuals fire up their futuristic imagination. XYZ Films is releasing it April 27 to limited U.S. theaters, as well as on-demand and digital platforms.

Best refillable beauty products from £8 that reduce waste and save you money

What do you do with your beauty empties? Chuck them in the bin and move onto the next one, diligently take apart, wash and sort the packaging – or something in between? However good your recycling habits, Greenpeace has suggested that less than 10% of plastic actually ends up getting recycled in the UK. Notoriously one of the biggest contributors to plastic waste, the beauty industry is now making a conscious effort to tackle its environmental impact – and one of these ways is by swapping single-use packaging for refillable options.
