Kamala Harris's "Kookiness" Defies Indian-American Stereotypes — & I Love To See It

By now, I’m sure everyone’s seen numerous edits of Kamala Harris’s quote from a May 2023 White House event: “You think you just fell out of a coconut tree? You exist in the context of all in which you live and what came before you.” The Vice President credits her mother for this iconic, silly declaration; she said her mother used to “give [her] a hard time” and say that to her as a child. So naturally, I have to wonder if Harris’s mother is aware that this quote has taken on a life of its own. Has she seen the TikToks? If so, were they her first introduction to Chappell Roan and Charli xcx? What does she think of her words of wisdom transforming into a viral phenomenon, and furthermore, an unofficial slogan for her daughter’s presidential campaign? Is she proud of her daughter?

This Western Kentucky Senior Created "The Encyclopedia Of Adulting" For College Students

In my experience through high school and college, I’ve found it’s not uncommon for institutions to cover academic topics in great depth at the expense of actual life skills training. While it’s great to solve a derivative without a calculator or identify the mitochondria as the powerhouse of the cell, those skills won’t necessarily give you the type of knowledge you’ll need to prepare yourself for adulthood. Nessa Unseld, a senior at Western Kentucky University, took it upon herself to create th

Spotlight: Savanna Leigh

As the genre of bedroom pop continues to build momentum, Savanna Leigh sets herself apart through her compelling vulnerability. Leave it to this 23-year-old Florida native to sing candidly about growing pains, adjusting to a new city, and losing touch with one's inner child. Savanna is kicking off 2024 with the double drop of "Unfamiliar" and "Like I Used To," two songs which take a more self-reflective direction than much of her previous work. Additionally, Savanna shares powerful moments from her childhood in the music video of "Like I Used To." In her current era of music, Savanna vividly characterizes her own thoughts, as opposed to concretely describing an experience. The lyrics of "Unfamiliar" and "Like I Used To" read like unfiltered, emotionally dense journal entries, in which she removes her rose-colored glasses and encourages listeners to do the same.

The Cast Of 'My Life With The Walter Boys' Saw More Of Themselves In Their Characters Than They Expected

If you need a new comfort show to binge-watch during the holidays, look no further than Netflix’s My Life With The Walter Boys. This coming-of-age series is based on a novel by Ali Novak, who first published the story on Wattpad. The show follows Jackie Howard (played by Nikki Rodriguez), a teenager who moves from NYC to a small town in Colorado after her parents and sister die in a tragic car accident. While in Colorado, Jackie moves in with the Walter family, which consists of 10 boys. Through

Katie Thurston Is Embracing Her True Self With The Help Of 'FBoy Island'

Katie Thurston has returned to the reality TV dating scene. But this time, she’s moving away from the stricter and more high-stakes environment of The Bachelor and The Bachelorette, and dipping her toes into the lighthearted atmosphere that is FBoy Island. “My most important focus was that I got to just be myself. FBoy Island really embraced that and allowed me to fully exist as Katie, not someone looking for an engagement or marriage or baby. It was very authentic to me,” Thurston says in an ex

Coco Gauff’s Tennis Career Includes So Many Epic Moments, Even Before The 2023 US Open

Gen Z is already taking the world by storm, proving that the future is in good hands. Greta Thunberg’s activism on climate change, Olivia Rodrigo’s pop punk renaissance, and Simone Biles’ record-breaking achievements in gymnastics — just to name a few — show the power of today’s young women. Most recently, thanks to her impressive comeback this weekend, tennis phenom Coco Gauff adds her name to this roster.

Even if you’re not the biggest sports fan, you’ve probably heard of her: the 19-year-old

Leah Marie Mason Reflects On Change In Nostalgic “Me Or My Hometown”

Have you ever experienced an intense, somewhat unexpected rollercoaster upon visiting the place where you grew up? Especially if it was your first visit after a while, did a sense of longing hit you head-on? In her newest single, “Me Or My Hometown,” the up-and-coming Leah Marie Mason strikingly captures that feeling.

Leah reflects that the sentimental track stemmed from a “nostalgic” mindset. Its lyrics detail the changes that her hometown and childhood friends have gone through since she last

The Best Lyrics From Kelsea Ballerini's Rolling Up The Welcome Mat

Right now, we’re both physically and emotionally unavailable. Country-pop superstar Kelsea Ballerini has left us in shambles with her tell-all EP, Rolling Up The Welcome Mat, and its accompanying short film. Following a tumultuous, public divorce, the singer shares her healing process with us in such a beautiful way!

I wasn’t worried about anything other than presenting the songs as honestly as possible. Most of them started with me and my guitar. I was writing by myself for most of the project
