Unfortunately, Miley Cyrus just had to get court-ordered protection from a man she claims is so obsessed with her. She had to get a temporary restraining order against the 52-year-old man named Alexander Kardalian after he showed up at her home days after being released from prison, and since then has made multiple attempts to contact Miley.

These attempts to contact, in addition to him showing up at her home, have included flooding her mailbox with obsessive letters since 2018. These letters often requested money and made sexually explicit comments about his desire for her.

Listen here for the full scoop. 

Julia got the chance to catch up with Billie Eilish after recently wrapping up a two-year tour and in the midst of working on her next album. The 21-year-old recently released her new song, “What Was I Made For,” which is part of the Barbie movie soundtrack and has quickly grown to be a hit.

One of the sensations that followed the release of this song was when a TikToker accidentally mispronounced the song's lyrics, which quickly went viral. Even Billie found it to be hilarious and laughed about it while performing the song on stage. 

Hear more about how this song came to be, how she feels after wrapping up her tour, and her initial reactions to hearing the mispronounced lyrics by listening here.

More than 15 years after teaming up for the first time, Timbaland and Nelly Furtado are back together and ready to deliver some new bops.

Having already served up, “Keep Going Up," a trio collab with Justin Timberlake, Nelly and Timbo have lots of new music plans, and lucky for us they’ve checked in with Audacy’s Julia to tell us all about it.

Wondering how this reunion of the year came together, Timbaland said "it was divine timing." He recalled doing a one-on-one with a beat club member and while listening to the hook, he said it was "infectious." He immediately texted Justin Timberlake and Nelly and everyone was on board. "We made it happen," Nelly added.

"I changed my flight. I think I got two hours of sleep in those 48 hours but it was so worth it. I just knew that it would be worth it to make time because the energy and time was right," she continued.

"For me it was like a little mini miracle," Nelly said in terms of all three of them being able to reunite for a song together. The last collab that the trio worked on was "Give It To Me," released in 2007.

Timbaland revealed they finished the song in a "whole night and a half." He talked about how the energy in the studio was so right and "flowed so perfect," and emphasized that everything about the process of making this song felt so natural.

Giving props to Timbo, Nelly said "Timbaland, to me, is really one of the only full service, brilliant-minded producers, that ever was and ever will be and no one can contest that."

Getting back out there as far as performing, Nelly says she's feeling really "inspired." Talking about her surprise performance at Lollapalooza, she said that was a really "pinch me" moment.

Switching gears to talk about JT, Timbo said JT's new album is bringing back "fun Justin" and we can expect it "at the top" of next year.

"The hard process was trying to make this body of work to fit to where he's at in his life. At this stage I think it's not trying to beat what we've done but try to compliment what we've done and just give people what they want from us," he said. "We already broke the barrier of changing pop and all these things so now, lets just give them the same thing but in a different form."

As far as what's next for the trio, Timbo revealed an EP is on the way. "Why keep doing these one offs here and there? Like okay, lets create a body of work instead of having a one off, lets have a body of work." He talked about how it would be beneficial for them going on tour to have a joint EP rather than everyone just popping off their individual songs. Guardians of the Galaxy, he called it, and when it's ready Timbaland assured he's just going to drop it and not think ...

Singer and Pop favorite Olivia Rodrigo recently stopped by The Julia Show to discuss the making of her second album, GUTS, and how she responded to her debut success by digging deeper into her emotions.

Now that GUTS is finally here, Rodrigo admitted that she is reeling from the whole process. “I am feeling every possible emotion that you could feel,” Rodrigo chuckled nervously, describing her overall restlessness about the album’s release. “It's just everything all at once. But I'm feeling very grateful as well. I'm trying to remember to appreciate this moment, because it is pretty special.”

“I'm really proud of the way that I think it's sort of an evolution from SOUR. I don't think it's the same thing at all. And I guess I'm proud of that.” Rodrigo’s 2021 debut album was a massive success and launched her music career as, what the Los Angeles Times called, the “fresh face of Gen Z pop.” SOUR went on to win Rodrigo the Best New Artist and Best Pop Vocal Album awards at the GRAMMYs, yet all the critical acclaim left Rodrigo wondering how she would respond, let alone fulfill the second album expectations she suddenly faced.

“It was definitely a very daunting task making this record. And there were definitely a few moments where I was like, ‘man, I don't know if this is going to happen. I don't know what I can pull through,” she told Julia. “But everything turned out alright. And I came out the other side pretty OK.”

“Pretty OK” is surely an understatement, as GUTS is already achieving global success barely a week after its release. It is currently outselling all of the top 10 U.K. charting albums, and in the U.S., single “vampire” is continuing its streak in the Top 10 of the  Billboard Hot 100 chart. Yet, Rodrigo revealed that creating the album was more about vulnerability than success.

“I think that I worked really hard on it for a long time. And really tried to dig deep in,” she recalled, even revealing that "logical" and "teenage dreams" have made her cry. When asked about her most intimate lyrics, Rodrigo said, “I think the chorus of ‘making the bed’ is pretty personal. The lyrics are, ‘sometimes I feel like I don't want to be where I am / getting drunk at a club with my fair-weather friends.’ And that kind of was a hard thing to say. That song in particular was sort of a hard one to write. It was about a topic that I never really discussed before in a song.”

The album is full of themes she had yet to dive into, such as being her "father’s daughter" and even an entire song based on her cringe-worthy regrets. “I was having one of those nights… I was just replaying every cringe thing I've ever done in my life,” she said laughing, “and then I woke up the next morning and I wrote ‘love is embarrassing.’ I came up with the title first and sort of figured it out on guitar after. And yeah, it's actually one my favorite songs on the album. I think it's really fun and funny. And I think I really enjoy making fun of myself a little bit on this album.”

Words by Isabella Eaton Interview by Julia

Julia was able to chat with the iconic Grammy Award-winning international pop sensation and critically acclaimed songwriter Kim Petras following the release of her highly anticipated debut album Feed The Beast.

Not only is Kim Petras an exceptional performer which has been proven by her achievements in music, but she is also a representative and advocate for the LGBTQ+ community. 

During this conversation, Julia and Kim discussed details related to her upcoming tour, her icon moments thus far such as coming out of Sam Smith's Dress on the SNL stage, her tendencies as a "shy person" while still being the electric performer she is, and so much more. 

Although she grew up in Germany and came to the U.S. when she was 19, Julia and she bridged the gap in their upbringing by discussing their favorite nostalgic moments as millennials such as Myspace, their favorite phones growing up, and the emo fashion taste that they both had.
