A new bachelorette has entered the chat, and she’s making history: Jenn Tran is the first Asian American woman to lead The Bachelorette.

Season 21 of the dating competition series premieres on ABC on Monday (July 8).

Tran, a 26-year-old medical student who’s studying to be a physician and currently resides in Miami, previously competed on Joey Graziadei’s season of The Bachelor.

Who will get Trans’s final rose? It’s a little early for finale talk, but Tran opened up about what she looks for in a Good Morning America interview on Monday.

“For me it’s really all about personality,” explained Tran. “I’m such a thoughtful person when it comes to being in a relationship, so I was looking for someone who was thoughtful, emotionally intelligent, open and ready for love.”

“I was honestly so grateful to have the group of guys that I did,” she added. “They were so thoughtful and caring. They were just so open to everything, and I felt so lucky to be with them.”

Former Bachelor Jesse Palmer returns as host the new season.

Watch a sneak peak of The Bachelorette below.

Domelipa launched her music career in June with debut single “La Foto,” which will be followed by “Ese Vato,” her collaboration with Ozuna, Billboard can exclusively announce. 

The soon-to-be-released single, produced by Colombian hitmaker Ovy on the Drums, marks the first collaborative effort between the Mexican influencer-turned-singer and renowned Puerto Rican star. “Ese Vato” is a flirtatious, retro pop-rock tune that narrates the story of two people who really like each other but don’t want any titles. “I didn’t want anything, but you’re that guy I run to immediately when he calls,” goes the chorus. 

“This is an incredible opportunity that helps both of us — Ozuna on the influencer side because it’s very popular right now, and me on the music side,” Domelipa tells Billboard. “It was cool being able to meet him and talk to him. I admire him a lot, and these are things that a young Dome wouldn’t believe yet.”  

“Ese Vato” is accompanied by a summer-inspired music video showcasing both artists navigating the waters of Miami in a yacht. It also marks Dome’s sophomore single following the captivating urban-pop track “La Foto” — both released under Sony Music Latin, her new record company. 

“I’ve been creating music since two years ago, but this year just felt like the right timing to release it,” she explains. “Two years ago, I didn’t know how the music industry worked. I simply thought it was recording the music and uploading it on the internet, but it’s more complex than that. I needed a great team behind me and I’m happy that Sony supports me in my craziness.” 

“Her ability to connect with younger generations and her impressive social media presence make her a formidable force in the music industry,” Alex Gallardo, president of Sony Music US Latin, notes in a press statement. “With her talent and dedication, we are confident that her music career will be as successful as her reach on digital platforms.”

Born Dominik Elizabeth Reséndez Robledo in Monterrey, Mexico, Domelipa (a combination of her first name and Dua Lipa, whose music career she admires) has been building a solid fanbase on social media since her teen years; she currently boasts more than 75 million followers on TikTok and nearly 25 million on Instagram.  

Now, at 22 years old, she’s ready to demonstrate her talents that go beyond being a social media presence.

“[My team at] Sony always tells me not to worry about the process or the numbers, but to enjoy the moment,” she notes. “Coming from the influencer world, I’m very concerned about the numbers, but now I have to focus on the people who follow me, follow me for my content and my music.”

As she prepares to launch her single with Ozuna and continues to discover her sound alongside producers such as Ovy on the Drums, Domelipa — who’s managed by Westwood Entertainment’s Jorge Juárez, who currently also manages Carin León — has the vision of her new musical era clear.

“I’m not only doing music to do music,” she shares. “The music that I’m creating has a significance in my head. I know that how I feel, many people might feel the same way and don’t know how to express it. My plan is that people can identify with my lyrics.”

Warning: the following story contains discussions of eating disorders.

Kesha has a simple message for anyone out there who has something to say about her physique: go ahead and hate, it only makes her stronger. The singer who has been candid about her struggles with body image and recovery from an eating disorder appeared to respond to some unkind comments about her body on Sunday (July 7) in a pointed Instagram post.

“i didn’t think in 2024 people still body shamed but. i am so proud of my body. she’s been through a lot. she’s torn her acl on stage and finished the show. she’s held my f–king broken heart together,” Kesha, 37, wrote in the post that also featured an image of the singer laying on the beach in a black string bikini as well as modeling it while standing on a balcony while wearing a black baseball hat and white robe.

“to those who think you’re shaming me, you’re actually making me feel very powerful. so, to you, i hope you one day feel whole enough to not tear other women down. in the mean time, hate me harder bi–ch:),” she added, along with a muscle flex emoji.

Back in 2017, Kesha posted about her struggle with eating disorders, writing, “I had an eating disorder that threatened my life, and was very afraid to confront it. I got sicker and the whole world kept telling me how much better I looked. That’s why I realized I wanted to be a part of the solution.” In addition, at the 2016 Billboard Women in Music event, Kesha discussed her past struggles with self-image. “I’ve decided to stay confident in my ever-changing, totally imperfect body,” she said at the time.

Around the same time, Kesha opened up in an essay in Teen Vogue, writing, “When I think about the kind of bullying I dealt with as a child and teen, it seems almost quaint compared with what goes on today. The amount of body-shaming and baseless slut-shaming online makes me sick. I know from personal experience how comments can mess up somebody’s self-confidence and sense of self-worth. I have felt so unlovable after reading cruel words written by strangers who don’t know a thing about me.”

She added, “It became a vicious cycle: When I compared myself to others, I would read more mean comments, which only fed my anxiety and depression. Seeing paparazzi photos of myself and the accompanying catty commentary fueled my eating disorder. The sick irony was that when I was at some of the lowest points in my life, I kept hearing how much better I looked. I knew I was destroying my body with my eating disorder, but the message I was getting was that I was doing great.”

More recently, the singer who just released her new single, “Joyride,” last week, told Self in 2023 that she after checking into an inpatient program to treat bulimia in 2014 she started working with therapists on a new routine to help manager her anxiety around eating.

According to organizers of NEDAwareness Week, some 30 million Americans will struggle at some point in their lives with an eating disorder, such as bulimia, binge-eating disorder and anorexia. For more information visit nedawareness.org.

On July 8, 2023, Travis Kelce attended Taylor Swift‘s Eras Tour show in Kansas City with a friendship bracelet and a dream. Exactly one year later, he’s not only dating the 34-year-old pop superstar, but has songs believed to be about him written into the exact show that started their love story — something that has fans celebrating as if it were their own anniversary on social media.

And in honor of the occasion, many Swifties are reminiscing on the fateful sequence of events that led to the couple’s union. First, the Kansas City Chiefs tight end attempted to shoot his shot by giving Swift a homemade bracelet with his phone number on it at her Eras performances in Arrowhead Stadium, but left disappointed when he discovered that she wasn’t meeting people after her show.

That moment — which turns 1 Monday (July 8) — ended up being the genesis of Kelce’s romance with the 14-time Grammy winner. Swift somehow took notice of him after he told the bracelet story on his New Heights podcast, and the pair started dating later that summer. By the fall, they were officially a couple, with the singer attending many of his games all the way up through the 2024 Super Bowl, which the Chiefs won.

Also in that time, Swift wrote and released The Tortured Poets Department, featuring two mushy love songs — “The Alchemy” and “So High School” — fans are certain Kelce inspired. The latter track is now embedded into the musician’s three-hour-plus Eras showcase — which the athlete now regularly attends — and she seemingly personally celebrated the one-year anniversary of her beau’s first show by singing an acoustic mashup of the track with “Everything Has Changed” and “Mary’s Song” at her July 6 concert in Amsterdam with him in the audience.

In short, Swifties couldn’t be happier about how things have progressed since Kelce attended his future girlfriend’s concert a year ago. “one year ago, travis attended her show and left disappointed that couldn’t give her a bracelet with his number on it,” one person wrote on X. “today, she serenaded him with the cutest surprise song mashup to date.”

“The greatest love story of our time🥺” another fan tweeted on the anniversary date. “I can’t believe it was exactly one year ago that Travis tried to give Taylor a friendship bracelet with his number on it, how far we have come!”

A third person gushed: “You cannot convince me the invisible string theory doesn’t work because it’s been one year since travis went to eras with a friendship bracelet and a dream and now she’s f–king singing marys song which she wrote like 18 years ago with his football number in it,” referring to Swift’s lyric, “I’ll be 87, you’ll be 89, I’ll still look at you like the stars that shine in the sky.”
