The HSMTMTS Season 2 Soundtrack Has an Adorable Joshua Bassett and Olivia Rodrigo Duet

-

High School Musical: The Musical: The Series season two hasn't even been released yet, and I'm already obsessed with the soundtrack. If you thought the Disney+ series couldn't possibly top the first season, think again. While season one included bops like "All I Want" by Olivia Rodrigo and covers of our favorite High School Musical songs, the second season is going above and beyond. Seeing that the students of East High are putting on a production of Beauty and the Beast, we'll likely get performances of iconic songs from the Disney film, but there are also a few original tracks in store. We got a glimpse of the opening number, "Something in the Air," during the holiday special, and now we have a sneak peek of an adorable duet between Rodrigo and Joshua Bassett's characters, Nini and Ricky.

Plus, the singer-songwriters wrote even more new tracks for the show this season. An acoustic version of Bassett's "The Perfect Gift" was featured in the holiday special, and he described a song Rodrigo wrote for the second season as "one of my favorite songs ever" and a real tearjerker. "[It] was such an honor," Rodrigo told POPSUGAR in December about writing for the show again. "Josh and I always say we're so grateful to have the opportunity to write for a show that means so much for us. It's just really cool that they believed in us teenagers and let us have so much creative control over the music, which is such an important aspect of the show." Listen to some of the tracks from the soundtrack ahead before the new season premieres on May 14.

The Circle: Meet the Real "Emily" - aka Jack's Catfish Persona

-

A 20-year-old astrophysics and economics student from New Haven, CT, Jack Atkins made quite the first impression in The Circle season two premiere. He tells viewers straight off, "I'm honestly down to go down as the biggest villain in Circle history. I don't really care." I mean, an intro package doesn't get much better than that. Kudos, Jack! Or shall we say . . . Emily? In the first episode, we learn Jack is here to play a "very strategic, manipulative, cutthroat game." Being a college student, Jack says he's a self-declared nerd but with a wild, goofy side. Nervous his authentic personality (and BDE) might cost him the $100,000 prize, he enters The Circle group chat as Emily, a girly girl from the Windy City, who also happens to be a close friend of his IRL. Jack explains in his confessional that he wants fellow competitors to look at his profile and go "'That's a face I can trust.'" "When it comes to strategy ther...

What Selling Tampa Tells Us About Diversity in Real Estate and Selling Sunset

-

When it comes to reality TV on Netflix, Selling Sunset is prime real estate (pun intended). Season four dropped on Nov. 24 , and a brand-new spinoff, Selling Tampa , followed on Dec. 15. Unlike Selling Sunset , which follows the drama behind the elite real estate brokerage firm The Oppenheim Group , Selling Tampa spotlights a Florida-based, women-led, Black-owned business, Allure Realty. The show adds much-needed representation to Netflix's real estate reality TV lineup. But Selling Tampa 's creation compels us to take a hard look at Selling Sunset and the representation among its agents in an industry that lacks diversity. In its first season, the cast of Selling Sunset was all white. Agents like Amanza Smith (a mixed-race Black woman) and Vanessa Villela (who is Mexican) joined The Oppenheim Group in seasons two and four, respectively, but most of the nine women dishing the drama on screen on Selling Sunset remain white. Looking at the numbers, this isn't too far ...
