Reba McEntire’s celebrating more than three decades of what is arguably her signature song.
“Here’s your one chance, Fancy!!” she posted on Wednesday. “Can’t believe it’s been 35 years since we released this single.”
The third single from Reba’s Rumor Has It album, “Fancy” went to radio on Feb. 11, 1991. Though it would only peak at #8, it’s gone on to be certified triple Platinum by the RIAA.
In her post, Reba encouraged fans to celebrate with her accompanying “Fancy” Funko, which comes with the pillbox hat, oversize glasses and black ensemble from the music video. It’s also holding the infamous “heart-shaped locket that said to thine own self be true” in its hand.
“Fancy” was originally written and recorded by “Ode to Billie Joe” hitmaker Bobbie Gentry in 1969.

(WASHINGTON) — U.S. District Judge James Boasberg has ordered the Trump administration to facilitate the return of the Venezuelan migrants who were were deported to El Salvador’s CECOT prison last year in violation of a court order.
Boasberg on Thursday criticized the administration’s refusal to offer remedies for the deportees for what he called “flagrant” due-process violations.
“Our starting point is the Court’s prior finding that the deportees were denied due process,” Boasberg wrote. “Against this backdrop, and mindful of the flagrancy of the Government’s violations of the deportees’ due-process rights that landed Plaintiffs in this situation, the Court refuses to let them languish in the solution-less mire Defendants propose.”
The judge’s order requires the government to provide “boarding letters” and cover the financial cost of air travel for the Venezuelans currently in third countries who “so desire” to return to the U.S.

Blur and Gorillaz frontman Damon Albarn and Grian Chatten of Fontaines D.C. collaborate on a new song called “Flags” for the upcoming benefit album HELP(2).
The track also includes vocals from musician and poet Kae Tempest, as well as instrumental contributions from Johnny Marr and Portishead’s Adrian Utley.
As previously reported, HELP(2) will raise money for War Child UK, which supports children affected by conflict around the world. It’s a sequel to War Child UK’s 1995 Help compilation.
“Recording ‘Flags’ was a genuinely joyful two days, with a strong sense of purpose throughout the building,” Albarn says in a statement. “I was particularly struck by the decision to employ children to do all the filming in the studio – it felt inspiring and directly reinforced the point we were trying to make about communicating with kids, by involving them in the process itself.”
HELP(2) will be released March 6. It also includes the new Arctic Monkeys song, “Opening Night,” as well as contributions from The Last Dinner Party, Portishead’s Beth Gibbons, Depeche Mode, beabadoobee, Wet Leg, Fontaines D.C. and Foals.

Chappell Roan took advantage of some downtime in Australia to hang out at a legendary dive bar, where the owner reports that she acted just like “a normal human.”
Chappell is part of the Laneway Festival tour, which played Sydney on Sunday and will move to Melbourne on Friday. According to James Young, the owner of Cherry Bar in Melbourne, Chappell and her crew stopped by the establishment on Wednesday and stayed for more than two hours.
In his social media post about the visit, James wrote that at the time of Chappell’s visit, there were only about 17 customers in the bar. “Didn’t take any pictures of her, cos that would be uncool, but can report that she drank a couple of mocktails and was very modest, polite and lovely,” he wrote, noting that she didn’t “hide” in the VIP bar.
“She stood the whole time at our main bar downstairs. This means everything. We think she’s the biggest artist on the planet. She thinks… she’s just a normal human. Gold,” he wrote. “Her crew were especially supportive of Cherry Bar, so that was nice too.” He added, “Also I was DJing tonight, so it was very satisfying to see Chappell embracing the ‘local sounds’ of underground Australia.”
According to Billboard, Cherry Bar is an institution, having first opened in 1999 at a different location, and has hosted drinking sessions by the likes of Metallica and Noel Gallagher of Oasis. The bar has also booked multiple artists before they blew up, including Billie Eilish and Charli XCX.

Following the mass shooting in Tumbler Ridge, Canada, that left eight people dead, Michael Bublé, who is from British Columbia, the same Canadian province where the shooting took place, posted a heartfelt message on Instagram.
Michael called the shooting “devastating,” adding that his “heart is broken for the families and loved ones who are facing the kind of grief no one should ever have to endure.”
“As a father, a senseless tragedy like this hits in a place that is hard to put into words,” he continued, going on to say, “I can’t begin to comprehend the pain they are living through.”
Michael, a native of Burnaby, British Columbia, wrote that his “deepest prayers” are with the “parents, students, teachers, first responders and the entire Tumbler Ridge community … and everyone affected by this unimaginable act of violence.”
“One of the things that defines us as Canadians is how we show up for each other even in the darkest moments,” he concludes. “And now more than ever, we must come together and support one another, as our neighbours navigate this unfathomable loss and heartbreak.”
On Wednesday, Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney announced seven days of mourning, with flags being flown half-staff across all government buildings.
Tumbler Ridge is located roughly 730 miles northeast of Vancouver.

(NEW YORK) — The fight over the Trump administration’s appointment of U.S. attorneys has taken another turn with the Justice Department’s firing of a newly appointed U.S. attorney in Northern New York.
After the DOJ’s appointment of acting U.S. Attorney John Sarcone III ran out, a court on Wednesday appointed Donald Kinsella to lead the U.S. attorney’s office in that district, according to a notice from the court.
But just hours after Kinsella’s appointment, Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche fired him.
The ongoing battle centers on who has the right to select the prosecutors who lead the nation’s U.S. attorneys offices, with the Justice Department appointing a series of acting attorneys general despite laws that don’t allow those positions to be filled by consecutive interim nominees without either Senate confirmation or appointment by the federal judiciary.
“Judges don’t pick U.S. Attorneys. @POTUS does. See Article II of our Constitution. You are fired, Donald Kinsella,” Blanche tweeted Wednesday, hours after Kinsella’s appointment by the court.
The head of the White House Presidential Personnel Office, Dan Scavino, tweeted that Kinsella should “check your email.”
Last fall a court found that Lindsey Halligan, a former White House aide who was appointed by President Donald Trump as interim U.S. attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia, had been unlawfully appointed because the law doesn’t allow the position to be filled by two interim nominees in a row, in violation of the U.S. Constitution’s Appointments Clause.
After a federal judge threw out the indictments Halligan obtained against former FBI Director James Comey and New York Attorney General Letitia James, Attorney General Pam Bondi filed an appeal this week arguing that she has the authority to address U.S. attorney vacancies.
Trump’s former personal attorney, Alina Habba, was disqualified in December from serving as interim U.S. attorney in New Jersey after the Trump administration sought to extend her appointment, and courts in Nevada and California have made similar rulings involving the appointments of acting U.S. attorneys in those districts.
