Demi Lovato debuts her most carefree era with new album

The singer announces a tour of North America and reveals her new musical philosophy: less drama, more party.

Demi Lovato gives us the raw (and danceable) truth about life

It seems that Demi Lovato, after weathering more storms than a character in a Netflix series, has had an epiphany worthy of a meme: “It’s Not That Deep”. No, it’s not the motto of your WhatsApp group, it’s the title of his ninth studio album. An energetic dance-pop work that is basically the perfect soundscape for when you decide that, in fact, today’s problems will be solved tomorrow… or never.

With 11 songs that are a tribute to the joys and glorious disorder of existence, Lovato presents us with her most zen side (but with a good rhythm). “I put so much energy and so much love into this album,” the artist confessed during rehearsals for an event at the Palladium in Los Angeles. The phrase sounds nice, but in a millennial context it translates as: “I’m tired of suffering and now I prefer to turn on the horn.”

The tour we need (but don’t deserve)

And since there can be no revelation without a tour, next spring Demi will take this new philosophy of life to 23 cities in North America. The “It’s Not That Deep” tour will kick off April 8 in Charlotte and end May 25 in Houston, hitting all the hotspots where one might need an aural reminder not to drown in a glass of water.

Orlando, Atlanta, Nashville, Toronto… the list is long, but the premise is simple: a night to leave dramas at the door. Pre-sale starts on Thursday, so get ready for a digital battle royale against other fans equally hungry for danceable catharsis.

But not everything is pure carefree partying. Among so many songs to twerk about, there is room for the occasional moment of mental clarity. As she herself pointed out:

“It was exactly what I expected. There are songs like ‘Sorry to Myself’, too, which is another party moment, but it has a really powerful message. And it also bridges the gap between my old music and my music today, lyrically, where it’s a little emotional.”

The transformation: From existential anguish to conscious “yolo”

In an interview, the singer delved into this new era. Have we seen her take over her own narrative? Apparently, yes. “I guess I didn’t realize that I’ve done iconic things. And if they’re embarrassing to some people, they’re fun to me,” he declared with a calmness that only thirtysomethings can give. Basically, he has made peace with his past and is now celebrating the present, a mood we all aspire to achieve.

When asked what letting go creatively unlocks, her response was a survival manual for young adults: “I think there’s something about your 30s, too, where you just take a second, and you can let go of some of the pressures that you once put on yourself, maybe in your 20s.” Translation: the midlife crisis comes with the carefree package.

And he finished off with the crown jewel, talking about his song “Kiss”: “…it’s not the most intellectually stimulating song. It’s a simple party song, it’s fun, and it’s sexy. And it’s like, that’s what it is.” A reminder that not everything in life has to be a work of Proust; Sometimes a good beat is enough.

So there you have it. Demi Lovato 4.0 (or 9.0, we lost count) has arrived to tell us that it’s okay not to take everything so seriously, that there is room for spontaneity and that, deep down, most of our tragedies… are not that deep.

Renny Harlin and Aislinn Derbez: the premieres of the week

Sharks and Mexican drama come to the billboard after the end of soccer.

After almost a month of soccer games, the audience returns to the cinemas with two opposing proposals: one of sharks with an action stamp and another of Mexican drama.

Deadly impact: sharks and survival on the high seas

A flight from Los Angeles to Shanghai malfunctions and crash-lands in the ocean. The survivors are trapped in the wreckage as sharks surround the area. The fuselage sinks and they must decide whether to take their chances in the water or wait inside.

Renny Harlin, who already demonstrated his craft in Deep Alert and High Speed, directs this film. The cast includes Ben Kingsley, Aaron Eckhart, Lucy Barrett and Molly Belle Wright. Gene Simmons, founder of Kiss, is a producer and focused on the sound design of the accident.

“Harlin regains some of his former vigor in the dizzying acceleration of violence,” notes The Hollywood Reporter.

“It’s a solid, entertaining movie about a plane that crashes into sharks. It’s much higher up the food chain than it should be,” adds IndieWire.

Until the end of the world: deep drama with ex-partner

Aislinn Derbez and Mauricio Ochmann share the set again, this time in a drama far from the comedy that made them famous in A la mala. The story, which Derbez promoted for almost a decade, addresses a serious illness and a complex love relationship.

The actress went to therapy before agreeing to film with Ochmann, her ex-partner and father of her daughter. The film starts in 1975 and ends ten years later. It is the debut film of Emiliano Castro Vizcarra.

Cecilia Suárez is honored at the GIFF after incident

A photographer fell into the stage pit just before the actress received her award.

Tribute with scare

“First of all, I would like to know if the person who fell is okay,” said Cecilia Suárez when taking the microphone at the Teatro Juárez. The actress was referring to a photographer who accidentally fell into the stage pit from a height of about two meters. Official reports confirmed that he did not suffer injuries.

The night, however, was one of celebration. Suárez received the Silver Cross from the UNAM Film Library, an award made with metal remains from film development. Hugo Villa, director of the Film Library, joked: “They can give you 8 thousand pesos for it.”

The Tampico actress arrived accompanied by her son, whom she recognized as her driving force in life. She accepted that motherhood makes women corny, remembering María Félix:

“One tends to think that when one receives a tribute one must be a certain age, and I tend to think of myself as much younger than I really am. The path of an actress cannot be understood without collective effort.”

As an activist, she has raised her voice for women, including at the UN. He considered that in turbulent times, only collective efforts will help move forward.

Also speaking at the event were Irene Azuela, who confessed that at first she was afraid to share a set with her, but a joke calmed her down, and Ernesto Contreras, her director in Párpados azul and Las Oscuras Primaveras.

Cecilia Suárez: “I have spent millions of pesos in therapy”

The Mexican actress reveals her investment in therapies and techniques such as psychomagic to protect herself emotionally.

Cecilia Suárez, known for “The House of Flowers” ​​and “Sex, Modesty and Tears,” spoke openly about the emotional cost of her job. During a master class at the Guanajuato International Film Festival (GIFF), where he received a national tribute, he confessed: “Millions of pesos spent on therapy and many hours of self-reflection.”

The actress highlighted that acting work requires a constant review of who one is and what tools each character uses. To “heal” after intense performances, he has resorted to various techniques. The most recent is psychomagic, created by Alejandro Jodorowsky, which fuses theater, shamanic rites and psychoanalysis.

“One believes that after a certain time it will no longer happen, but that is not the case. The last thing has been psychomagic to protect me in functions and be in a stable place,” he said.

Theatre, the king of your heart

Although he works in film, television and theater, Suárez made it clear which is his favorite. He joked with the director of the GIFF, Sarah Hoch: “Excuse me, Sarah. Interpretation has its headquarters there, it is still the litmus test for actors; there we don’t have take 2 or 3, there are no tricks and that’s what fascinates me.”

Regarding the new generations, he considered that they feel anguish during breaks, when they should be enjoying them.

Seven years in Spain, but always Mexico

Living in Spain for seven years, Suárez assures that she continues to keep up with her country. “He is present every day, reading the news, talking, eating Mexican at home; there is a certain longing to be here or return at some point.”

He considers that living in voluntary exile is enriching: “I have discovered part of my family history and recognized part of the country in me. We have leaders who insist on dividing instead of generating a synergy that enriches us more.”
