Saturday, March 24, 1984 has reappeared at SXSW, and it takes the shape of a blonde (and pregnant? IDK, there’s a lot of pics of her holding her stomach in a expectant-mother way but don’t quote me on that) Molly Ringwald and still-smoldering-after-all-these-years Ally Sheedy, on hand to celebrate the 30th anniversary of The Breakfast Club.
Wow. The Breakfast Club is 30—30!—and that just made me feel incredibly old. In case you’re not able to catch the duo in person at SXSW, fear not: the film is being screened at theaters across the country on Thursday, March 26, and Tuesday, March 31. Hell yeah.
Speaking of the ’80s: Sinead O’Connor will no longer perform her iconic hit, Nothing Compares 2 U, citing “emotional detachment” as the reason for her inability to sing the very song that put her on the charts. It’s annoying for fans, I suppose, but kudos to her for taking ownership of the situation and letting them know ahead of time, lest there be a dramatic influx of ticket refund requests. [Fact Mag]
Salon spit Internet vitriol all over Meghan Trainor’s new release, Dear Future Husband, deriding it as “the worst song of 2015.” Well, it’s only March, etc., but if you’ve got three minutes and 20 seconds and want to decide for yourself, you can watch it below (or not, and spend that time doing something productive, like reading through all of these juicy Dirt Bag links!).
