I wrote a song for The Kid I Babysit. It’s called Victoria’s Secret 🤫 ❤️ 👙 @TheLascherFamily original sound - Jax">

@jaxwritessongs I just released a song called To All The Boys I’ve Loved Before 🐸🐸🐸🐸🐸 #ToAllTheBoysIveLovedBefore #fypシ #originalmusic #foryou ♬ To All The Boys I’ve Loved Before - Jax

Jax makes pop music without harming any balloons. She has no problem wearing Crocs or playing Settlers of Catan for hours (in Crocs). She once trained (Rocky-style) to complete a marathon. She even blitzed the DJ booth at some bougie Hollywood nightclub to sing next to Paris Hilton after writing her a song (umm, who wouldn’t?). She went viral like a dozen or more times by singing pop songs from the perspectives of their subjects, attracting 1.3 million followers on Tik Tok, 125 million views and 17 million “likes” (she has no idea what 1 million people look like together though). She is from New York and New Jersey, but lives in L.A. (you could find her at bars in the Valley pre-Pandemic—not so much now).

Despite not actually fathering any children (to her knowledge), she knows more dad jokes than any dad out there.

She is just the nerd we need right now.

“I’m a total dork in real life,” she affirms. “Sometimes I’m feeling myself and I’ll put out something sexy, but it’s not really who I am. I wanted that to shine through in the music. In my songs, I write things I’d actually say in conversation and see if anybody wants to be my friend.”

You’ll definitely want to be her friend…

Out of the womb, mom played “tons of rock ‘n’ roll” for Jax. So, she took to Janis Joplin, Joan Jett, Alanis Morissette, The Beatles, Frank Sinatra, Paramore, blink-182, and Billy Joel. “Obviously because I grew up on Long Island,” she reminds. At seven-years-old, she did adult community theater as a proud “psycho theater kid.” She taught herself piano and went through “a big emo goth” phase. When her high school band gained traction, her parents allowed her to homeschool. Her Brooklyn firefighter dad had bravely rushed towards danger as a 9/11 first responder on a recovery mission and retired in the aftermath. So, he took the reins as her first manager, tour driver, roadie, etc. “I couldn’t have done anything without him,” smiles Jax.

However, it wasn’t easy. At 18-years-old, she developed cancer above her vocal chords. She went into remission, but it returned a couple of months later after she relocated to L.A.

“It was a major wakeup call,” she states. “It made me realize you only live once. I’m thankful I caught it early. I couldn’t sing at the time, and I still needed to do something creative, so I started writing songs.”

In remission once more, she succeeded behind-the-scenes writing songs for other artists. When COVID-19 shutdown songwriting sessions, Jax needed to pivot again. This time, she turned to Tik Tok. She posted a hilarious response to the pop gem “Stacy’s Mom” from “Stacy’s Mom’s Perspective.” It exploded with nearly 9 million views in a few months’ time. She maintained this momentum with other riotous Tik Toks, including “Avril Lavigne & Sk8er Boi (18 years later)” [14 million views] (people under 16 still think Jax is the real Avril Lavigne!). She dedicated “Somebody’s Kid” to her marine brother and served up other fan favorite independent singles, including “i can’t believe i shaved my legs for this,” “papercuts,” and “Bitchcraft.”

However, “Ring Pop” changed everything. Initially teased on Tik Tok, the snippet instantly captivated fans. On the official release, her warm delivery coasts over dreamy guitar and snappy percussion as she croons to her BF, “Don’t need no diamonds, you’re my rock, and I’m okay with a ring pop.”

“I was, and currently am, broke in L.A. living in a one-bedroom apartment, but very much in love,” she goes on. “My boyfriend and I weren’t having a great week, so I wrote the song for him to feel better about not being able to just buy a diamond engagement ring and get married. Who cares? We’re living our best times now.”

Ultimately, that spirit carries over to the music.

“I want you to know it’s cool to be weird,” she leaves off. “If you’re not feeling cool enough, I’m on the same plane. We’re all in this together, and I can be your dad,” she laughs.

Jax joins Kyle Meredith to talk about her latest single, “Cinderella Snapped,” and the big year she has in front of her.

The singer-songwriter discusses the runaway success of her single “Victoria’s Secret,” becoming a star on TikTok, and how her mental health has found its way into her work.

“TikTok was the first time I got validation in things that were my biggest insecurities, essentially, as a writer,” she explains. “For the first time, people don’t want to hear anything but stories from me. And, holy shit, that’s so cool as writer that after all these years, I get to storytell the way I want to and people care about the stories.”

Jax goes on to tell us about her love of pop punk and guitar-driven music, the upcoming tour with Big Time Rush and MAX (tickets are available here ), and if an album is on the way.

Basement Jaxx are an electronica duo hailing from Brixton, London, England who formed in 1994. The band have released seven studio albums and have enjoyed massive success in their home country and all across the globe.

Ever since Oasis’ heyday every two-bit guitar group has to talk like they’re going to take over the world. Viva Brother began their first ever gig by saying “If anybody here doesn't want to see the future of music, leave now” and now they’re a punch line, and not even a very good one at that. It leaves a band doomed from the start, cos the reason that Oasis sounded so exciting was that believed every word of what they were saying to the very core, and could back up every outlandish statement they made at that. Save for a very select few, nobody believes anyone else saying they’re going to be legendary for a second. Most of the time bands are formed not out of a desire to change music history or headline Wembley fourteen nights in a row, but out of an honest desire to play and create music.

This was exactly why Basement Jaxx formed and they went on to do everything that Viva Brother said they were destined to do. And thank the music Gods for that. The duo are made up of Simon Ratcliffe and Felix Buxton, who first struck up a friendship at a river boat party over the Thames, and Basement Jaxx was originally the name of their club night. Their original ambition was simple, to put on great parties and release great records, which they did on their Atlantic Jaxx label. However, by 1997 Ratcliffe and Buxton were making their own music and releasing it either on their first E.P’s or their label compilations. Even at this early stage of their career they were doing something revolutionary, releasing music that was as inspired by international music like soul, samba, reggae and house as it was by British institutions like punk and rave. Armand Van Helden summed it up best when he said they took house music and “f***ed it up the ass”.

In 1999 their music got the attention of XL Records, who at that point had given the world The Prodigy and were already as achingly cool as they’d ever be. Their debut album “Remedy” followed and was an instant success with both critics and the public. To wit, the second single from that album “Rendez-Vu” remaining their highest charting single in the U.K, hitting number four in August that year. The single also topped the Hot Dance Music/Club Play chart in the States, as did their debut single “Red Alert”. High on their debut records success the band toured everywhere that would have them, before hunkering back down to Brixton to work on their follow up.

True to form, part of their work on that follow up was putting on another club night, which they called Rooty. If that sounds familiar, it’s because it became the title of their second album, which was released in 2001. It was another critical and commercial smash, giving the world the deathless hit "Where's Your Head At" in the process. Ever since then they’ve held on to their title of the “other” elder statesmen of British dance music alongside The aforementioned Prodigy with aplomb. They’ve headlined Glastonbury, sold out arenas and collaborated with the likes of Dizzee Rascal and Siouxsie Sioux. They’re a shoo in for the status of national treasures, and it all stemmed from wanting to put on a good party and make some good music. Mission accomplished, I think.

Live reviews

London dance duo Basement Jaxx, from Brixton, have been bringing the party for years now, since the late ‘90s. Their live shows continue to be eccentric, carnival-esque extravaganzas, featuring live musicians, dancers, crazy visuals and a revolving door or guest vocals. They are one of the bands who helped take dance music to the greatest of heights, laying down the foundations for live electronic music shows, which have been replicated year after year by young upstarts.

I’ve seen them so many times at festivals, from Exit Festival in Serbia to London based festivals, and they never disappoint. It would be hard to, with a catalogue of stomping singles such as ‘Red Alert’, ‘Where's Your Head At?’, ‘Romeo’ and ‘Good Luck’, all of which they regularly perform. Often, like at Exit, when they perform ‘Where's Your Head At?’, they bring out a bunch of dancers in monkey costumes, referencing their weird and wonderful video from it – showing that their tongues are firmly in their cheeks. The best time I saw them was up-close and personal in the relatively intimate settings of KOKO in London. Their sound was perfect and the energy they brought to the stage rivalled that of any other ‘90s dance act. This is how live dance music should be done: with heavy doses of pop, soul, rock and a taste for the theatrical.

Report as inappropriate

Having seen Basement Jaxx four times in the early 00's, I have to say that this collaboration with the TMO, was a bit of a let down.

Simon really didn't seem to be interested, and they walked off stage without giving the Melbourne crowd an encore - despite some of the orchestra getting back into their seats to perform one.

Most of us there were 40+ ex-ravers and Jaxx fans than curious artsy orchestra people.

While the orchestra and variety of singers did a great job, there was definitely something missing here....a banging version of 'Where's Your Head At' or medley banged out as a finale. Having accapella and slow versions of Romeo and Where's Your Head At? were impossible to get out your seat to dance. We jumped out as often as we could all night.

Having a per-pubescent ballet dancer on stage was a miss. It was a distraction and had most people questioning 'where's their head at?'

Believe me, you can still use classical musicians to bang out some fun hits. We have seen Above & Beyond, Hardwell, Armin van Buuren and Paul van Dyk all collaborate with orchestras and delver.

Sadly Basement Jaxx didn't deliver on this occasion.

Basement Jaxx is the electro/dance brain child of Simon Ratcliffe and Felix Buxton. The UK duo has enjoyed a celebrated and commercial career with a number of their singles becoming hits in their homeland as well as having the prestigious opportunity to headline the Pyramid stage at Glastonbury Festival. The reason Basement Jaxx has attained such relevance though is due to the huge production values of their live show.

The whole performance has been carefully designed and moves between the huge dance floor fillers such as 'Red Alert' and 'Rendez-Vous' into the more progressional electro in such succinct manner it keeps the crowds jumping and dancing all evening. There are robots involved, carnival dancers and stage invasions aplenty to add to the hedonistic experience of the show and the whole entity can become quite overwhelming at times as you start to lose exactly what it is you should be focusing on. There are few acts who turn a live show into a fully fledged production, Basement Jaxx are a great modern day example of the importance of show.

In no way shape or form was this BASEMENT JAXX let alone Basement Jaxx vs the Sydney Orchestra. The description was completely misleading and at the extravagant cost of the tickets - needless to say I was thoroughly disappointed and angry and left half way through.

Basement Jaxx vs The Sydney Orchestra... laughable

Juce and Ella Eyre were great support acts to get the crowd in the mood for the Basement Jaxx - who did not disappoint. Creating a wonderful carnival atmosphere, Basement Jaxx and the troupe sang, danced and entertained - whipping the audience into a frenzy! Fantastic gig!

My third time seeing and meeting these guys and by far the best ! Best night ever won't forget it ! Epic night, they don't charge that much for tickets either so its really the best concert you could ever go to ! I'd fly across the world to see tgen , no question

Brittany Cartwright and Jax Taylor Reunite at White House Correspondents Dinner, Walk Red Carpet Solo

Jax Taylor and Brittany Cartwright went from the Valley to the Capitol when they hit the White House Correspondents Dinner red carpet on Saturday, April 27.

Cartwright, 35, looked glamorous in a black, corseted strapless gown with matching full-length gloves, but she did not have her estranged husband on her arm. She and Taylor, 44, each walked the red carpet solo, just hours after they both attended the White House Correspondents’ Garden Brunch in Washington, D.C.

While they didn’t take photos together, they did sit next to each other. Taylor, who wore a black State and Liberty Clothing Co. suit, showed Cartwright via his Instagram Story and vice versa. They were guests of the Daily Mail .

The separated couple’s appearance comes one year after Ariana Madix made her post-Sandoval red carpet debut at the same event. She attended alongside Lisa Vanderpump and Lala Kent last year as guests of the Daily Mail . Taylor and Cartwright’s turn on the carpet comes amid their highly publicized split.

Before Taylor and Cartwright joined Bravo’s The Valley , which debuted earlier this year, they were first introduced to audiences on Vanderpump Rules . Their 2019 wedding was filmed for the show one year before the duo announced their departure. They went on to expand their family with son Cruz, whom they welcomed in 2021.

Amid their small screen return, Taylor and Cartwright surprised fans when they announced their separation in February. However, Cartwright has made it clear that Taylor could win her back — if he makes changes.

“There’s definitely a chance,” she revealed in her Us Weekly cover story earlier this month. “But I won’t waste my time and get back into a toxic situation. Now the veil has been lifted and I see how much I was always cleaning up Jax’s messes. I’m thrown in the middle of all these fights and constantly forced to apologize for him in the media and to friends. It’s hard.”

When asked what exactly he needs to do, Cartwright said there’s a lengthy list. “There are a lot of things, and I’m not seeing enough effort from his side,” she explained to Us . “He needs to go to therapy. He doesn’t need to be staying out at the bar all the time. He needs to respect me more and stop taking me for granted. I was the closest person to him and was kind of like his punching bag. He was always giving me jabs. I can’t deal with that for the rest of my life.”

While Taylor has apologized for various things — from publicly embarrassing her to criticizing on her looks — his wife wants to see actual progress.

“He acknowledged it but then he’s always like, ‘I said sorry.’ He likes to think that just saying, ‘I’m sorry,’ will be fine and we should move on. … I can’t do that now, this is too serious. And if things don’t change, then we can’t be together because we’re gonna be unhappy for the rest of our lives. I don’t want to be unhappy for the rest of my life. I don’t want to be in a sexless marriage for the rest of my life. I don’t want to be arguing with my husband for the rest of my life.”

She even moved out because of the bickering, opting to live in an Airbnb until they figure out their next move.

“The fighting has to stop ,” Cartwright said. “We were just constantly digging at each other. We got to that point, which I think a lot of marriages go through, where everything that the other person does is getting on your nerves. That’s a horrible feeling and a horrible way to live. That’s one of the main reasons I knew that we needed space from each other.”

Whether Taylor can fix their marriage remains to be seen, but either way, she’s happy that she took control of her life. “I feel good,” she said. “I feel strong, and I’m proud of myself for doing what’s right for my mental health and my family.”

WEATHER ALERT

A river flood warning in effect for Columbia County

Police emphasizes safety as jacksonville beaches officially open with events, fun for all.

Aleesia Hatcher , Multimedia Journalist

JACKSONVILLE BEACH, Fla. – It’s officially opening weekend for Jacksonville beaches with the sandcastle contest being one of the first events. Police are also emphasizing safety for all beachgoers.

Denver Dudley said it felt great being at the beach.

“I wish it was a little bit more sunny not as windy and I haven’t been out here doing this in four years so it feels good to be back,” Dudley said.

Ziva Hill described how they molded a sea turtle at the beach.

“We pretty much mounded on the shelf, and then we put water, wet sand on the outside, and then dug a little under, kind of slide your hand like that and that’s pretty much it for both of it. Just mending sand, shaping low and then did some smoothing,” Hill said.

While people are enjoying their time at the beach, safety is a concern for the Jacksonville Beach Police Department.

The JBPD gave a 10-page document to city council that gives details on the multiple shootings that left one person dead and three others wounded and safety recommendations.

Police Chief Gene Paul Smith recommended increased traffic presence, increasing parking fees and fines during peak problem times, placing officers in plain clothes and unmarked cars, and more.

Casey Jones gave his thoughts about safety in the area since the shootings.

“Jax Beach, excellent job, they stepped it up and just like that unforgiven St. Patrick’s Day shooting, there was zero response time and everything,” Jones said.

The Jacksonville Beach Ocean Rescue gave tips to keep in mind as well.

“Drink lots of fluids, stay cool and just be mindful of how long you’ve been at the beach. Bring an umbrella, wear sunglasses, wear protective clothing to prevent you from getting overheated, but also wearing sunscreen to prevent sunburns and any significant radiation issues,” Lieutenant Maxwell Ervanian, Training and Operations Officer said.

Lifeguards assess the ocean conditions every day and place red flags in areas they find dangerous to swim in.

“Red flag means dangerous conditions, we advise people not to go on the water, yellow flag means moderate ocean conditions. We strongly encourage people to have fun, and enjoy the water but be mindful of rip currents as well as any waves or other currents that may cause problems to any swimmer,” Ervanian said.

He said its rare to see a green flag in Jacksonville Beach but encouraged people to call 911 or flag down a lifeguard if they see an emergency.

Miles Russell, 15, ready for TOUR-sanctioned debut at LECOM Suncoast Classic

Change Text Size

LAKEWOOD RANCH, Fla. – Miles Russell is too young for a driver’s license, but he outdrove his playing partners with ease Tuesday at the LECOM Suncoast Classic.

Russell, the world’s top-ranked junior golfer, will make his PGA TOUR-sanctioned debut this week on a sponsor exemption, roughly a four-hour drive from his hometown of Jacksonville Beach, Florida.

Russell, 15, is a high-school freshman who began online schooling in eighth grade. The smooth-swinging left-hander got ahead on coursework in recent days (classes include geometry, Earth science, world history and geography) so he can focus on competing at Lakewood National Golf Club’s Commander course. This isn’t a ceremonial start, as Russell has displayed high-end talent and skill across a schedule of big-time junior golf events. He surpassed Tiger Woods last fall as the youngest AJGA Boys Junior Player of the Year, and he nearly Monday qualified for the PGA TOUR’s Puerto Rico Open last month – falling in a playoff for the final spot.

A junior star’s first TOUR-sanctioned start becomes a time capsule in future years. Jordan Spieth finished T16 at THE CJ CUP Byron Nelson in 2010 (at age 16), and a 17-year-old Scottie Scheffler finished T22 at the same event four years later. Both, like Russell, are past AJGA Players of the Year and made their TOUR-sanctioned debut in their home state. The youthful energy radiates across time, and Russell looks forward to a similar experience this week in Florida.

“I don’t know what to expect, but I’d love to make the cut and who knows, maybe have a good weekend and see where it puts me,” Russell said Tuesday.

Russell was introduced to golf at age 2 by his dad and grandpa, “whacking it around the house … and it’s been history ever since,” he said. “Took me out to the course and went through a bucket of balls in 3 minutes, and it was just fun.”

Russell played baseball and soccer in his formative years, but he eased those sports back to focus on golf – he still enjoys some pickleball and tennis at times, but golf is his purest sporting love. He first attended THE PLAYERS Championship at age 2 (TPC Sawgrass is just 10 minutes from home) and said he’s attended that event as a fan each year since.

“I’ve always wanted to be able to do it," Russell said of eventually pursuing professional golf. "To have the chance to do it would be even cooler, and then to be able to do it would be awesome. I think it would just be cool to do something I love, and there’s not much more I love than this.”

His resume suggests he’s poised to do just that.

Russell was named the 2023 AJGA Player of the Year on Nov. 2 (a day after turning 15) in a year that included winning the Junior PGA Championship (by seven strokes), Junior PLAYERS Championship (carding a second-round 66 at TPC Sawgrass’ PLAYERS Stadium Course, en route to becoming the event’s youngest winner) and representing the United States at the Junior Ryder Cup.

Russell has worked with instructor Ramon Bescansa, whom he describes as both a swing coach and a skills coach, since age 6 or 7. Bescansa, a former Korn Ferry Tour member, will caddie for his student in his Korn Ferry Tour debut.

When asked about TOUR player comparisons that come to mind, Bescansa mentioned reigning Open champion Brian Harman, noting their elite hands, short game and intuition.

“He was already incredible when I first started working with him,” Bescansa said of Russell. “He had a golf IQ that’s not normal for such a young age. It’s been so much fun. I was able to not only help him with his swing, but teaching him how to play golf, play all the shots; he already had a huge understanding and he was like a sponge, a lot of teaching was done with him and a club, and try to do it.”

Russell says he’s more of a feel player than technical, and his instructor concurs. Bescansa said a large part of their work relates to tempo and being synced up. That will become especially paramount as Russell’s body continues to change.

“He’s only 15 and he’s still growing; every time I see him, he’s hitting it farther,” said Bescansa, noting that Russell has reached 112-113 mph of swing speed (which will likely increase in future years).

Russell made waves in the professional golf sphere by narrowly missing at Puerto Rico Open’s Monday qualifier, as he made bogey at No. 18 before falling in a 4-for-1 playoff won by Korn Ferry Tour member Evan Harmeling. (Harmeling proceeded to top-10 in Puerto Rico, his first TOUR start, to earn a spot in the Valspar Championship.)

In a twist, Russell and Harmeling often compete in chipping competitions around their hometown Atlantic Beach Country Club – Russell also often tests his skills against TOUR pros Vince Covello, Raul Pereda, Russell Knox, Philip Knowles and others. Being around professional golfers has accelerated Russell’s development into a world-class junior player, concurred Russell and his instructor, befitting of Russell’s “sponge” ethos.

That was also the case Tuesday, when Russell played an 18-hole practice round with veteran pros Roberto Diaz, Sam Saunders and Rob Oppenheim – who finished runner-up at the Club Car Championship at The Landings Golf & Country Club earlier this month. (After being informed that Russell was the No. 1-ranked junior, Oppenheim quipped that if he wasn’t No. 1, that could foreshadow trouble for veteran pros at large.) Those three have combined for 907 starts between the PGA TOUR and Korn Ferry Tour.

Russell might embody the game’s future, but his veteran playing partners didn’t shy away from offering instruction in the present. On the par-4 11th tee, the group discussed how the hole might play in certain wind directions and various angles to consider on the short par 4 that could become drivable on a downwind day. As they strode up the fairway, Diaz shared nuances and a perspective accrued through a 15-year pro career.

“These guys have been great,” Russell said. “Certainly watching what they’ve doing; asked them some questions … they’ve kind of been showing me some secrets.”

Russell also spent some time at THE PLAYERS last month with world No. 1 Scottie Scheffler, whom he said “was such a nice guy and such a great guy.” Scheffler famously debuted at THE CJ CUP Byron Nelson in 2014, finishing T22 with his sister Callie on the bag – and making a hole-in-one in the third round.

“Scheffler sounded like a PGA TOUR veteran Sunday, analyzing his experience and making a mental checklist of everything he wants to fix,” wrote ESPN at the time.

Russell too sounded like a veteran Tuesday discussing his week ahead, his quiet confidence backed up by his laundry list of accomplishments. The No. 1 junior wasn’t in the business of making bold proclamations, but he projected a sense of expectation to compete this week. When asked about highlight golf moments so far, he mentioned the Junior Ryder Cup and holing out on the 72nd hole at the Junior PGA Championship, but also …

“Maybe we’ll make one this week,” he said after completing Tuesday’s practice round, as he headed to the range for some further work. “Who knows?”
