Marie Ulven, a.k.a. Girl in Red , stops herself mid-apology — the kind you utter when you think you’re talking too fast or you’re unsure whether the listener gets your drift. “I’m not gonna say sorry,” the 22-year-old musician says firmly, breaking off from a discussion of her new album, If I Could Make It Go Quiet . “I don’t want to be that person who apologizes for everything. I’m not sorry. There you go, Marie. You’re the protagonist.” Even though Ulven is Zooming in from Oslo — with the camera off — her personality crackles across the miles and timezones. Delightfully verbose, snarkily self-deprecating, and “really bad at boundaries” (her words), Ulven has carved out a place for herself in indie rock by appealing to her listeners’ insecurities and yearnings. Her Girl in Red persona — think Billie Eilish’s self-aware bluster, mixed with a healthy splash of early ‘00s college rock — grapples in equal turns with mental health and sometimes unrequited lust. It’s a combination … [Read more...] about Girl in Red’s Supercharged Indie Rock Honesty

Ben Beshore did not take the bait. The opportunity to acknowledge the shortcomings of predecessor Adam Stevens presented itself, but Kyle Busch ’s new crew chief opted for the high road. “I worked for Adam for four years,” Beshore said last month in Daytona. “We had a lot of great success on that team. I’m not going to say anything bad about him, by any means. But from my standpoint, I’m just going to do it my way, I guess.” Beshore seemed jittery. Perhaps it was the adrenaline — he’d just won the Busch Clash — or maybe it was his first time on the microphone in front of this many people, but the rookie Cup Series team leader was delicately laying out his game plan for course-correcting a conspicuously wayward ship, careful in choosing his words. Busch, inching towards his statistical prime, won just twice in a 58-race stretch, an aberration in a career that’s seen the 35-year-old racer average one Cup Series win in every 10 starts. It was a wasted 2020 season for a driver who … [Read more...] about ‘Good things will happen’: Ben Beshore charting Kyle Busch’s course correction

It’s a Fancy Vivid Pink diamond. It weighs 18.96 carats. It has a name: The Pink Legacy. And no, that's not in reference to a girlie bar. Although, come to think of it, many of the top-grade, rosy-hued diamonds have somewhat louche monikers: The Pink Promise. The Sweet Josephine. Which makes you wonder if the industry is run by lonesome men. But in all seriousness, the world of coloured diamonds – especially pink diamonds – is big business, and increasingly so. The Pink Legacy is expected to fetch between US$30 million and US$50 million (S$41.3 million to S$68.8 million) at Christie's Magnificent Jewels sale in Geneva next week. READ: The Pink Legacy sells for US$50 million in Geneva And that’s not even broaching the record price. In April 2017, The Pink Star, a massive 59.60-carat rock, sold for US$71.2 million at a Sotheby’s sale in Hong Kong, becoming the most expensive gem to ever be auctioned. In Nov 2017, The Pink Promise sold for a lower absolute price at … [Read more...] about A pink diamond for S$69 million? Here’s why the stone is so valuable
