2019 | xoxo, adele

Top Artists

BLACKPINK – I became a fan in May 2019 and a stan July 2019. I didn’t know much about BP prior to their Coachella performance, but one day I was scrolling through Twitter and then I fell down the rabbit hole. From May to about September they were all I listened to. According to Spotify, I listened to them for a total of 292 hours. That doesn’t include YT streams or Apple Music. Mind you, I never obsessed about KPOP before them.

Ariana Grande – We all know I love Ariana Grande. How can you not? Last year’s “Sweetener” was an amazing album with “God is a woman” and my personal faves, “everytime” and “breathin.” Then her surprise drop of “thank u, next” had some memorable tracks. Both “7 Rings” and “thank u, next” were iconic. Now, I’m hoping for the AriPink collab to happen soon!

JENNIE (BLACKPINK) – She literally has one song and I guess I streamed it so many times, but I ain’t mad at this result. “SOLO” was released last year and it’s been doing so well in the charts as a solo KPOP artist. Jennie Kim is my bias and I’m pretty sure I’ll love her forever. One day I hope to see here “SOLO” stage live.

Taylor Swift – I’ve been a fan of Taylor’s since her debut in country pop. But to be honest, I haven’t really enjoyed her past few albums. Then she came out with her “Lover” album and I felt like I was listening to the old Taylor that I loved. “Daylight” was the one song that I had on repeat this year.

Alex Aiono – He’s one of my favorite YouTube artists of this decade. I remember the first video of his that I fell in love with, “One Dance/Hasta El Amanecer”. When he started to sing in Spanish, I literally fell in love and followed him since. Alex released some heartbreaking tracks this year and while I love them, I wonder who broke his heart.

Top Songs of 2019

I’m not surprised with my top songs because most of them are by BLACKPINK. They only have about 13 recorded songs since their debut in 2016, and that is not including remixes and Japanese versions! But of course Ariana Grande made my top 5 with “7 rings” and “Hot Girl Summer” rounded out the top 10.

Tonight, red carpet season ended with Hollywood’s biggest award show, the 91st Annual Academy Awards. The iconic Hollywood and Highland intersection was definitely busy as the hottest stars of the year walked the red carpet before entering the Dolby Theater. Before Green Book took home the Oscar for Best Picture, these artists caught my eye on the red carpet:

Constance Wu

Constance Wu looked like a modern day Belle walking the red carpet in a yellow Versace gown. She looked like she had a lot of fun showing off the tulle skirt. Before presenting an award during the big show, she walked the red carpet alongside Crazy Rich Asians director Jon M. Chu. |Photo Source: Getty Images via Zimbio|

Tessa Thompson

Before sharing a moment with Michael B. Jordan on stage, Tessa Thompson walked the red carpet in a Chanel gown. The black and gold gown was from one of the late Karl Lagerfeld’s last collections and she looked beautiful. |Photo Source: Getty Images via Zimbio|

Regina King

Regina King stunned in a white Oscar De La Renta gown. The strapless, high slit gown hugged every curve of her body. It definitely takes a lot of confidence and trust to wear an all white gown. She took home the first award of the night, Best Supporting Actress for her role in If Beale Street Could Talk. |Photo Source: Getty Images via Zimbio|

Lady Gaga

Before performing “Shallow” with Bradley Cooper and taking the home for Best Original Song, Lady Gaga walked the red carpet in an Alexander McQueen gown. From the black gown and the satin gloves to the Tiffany and Co. jewelry, she channeled the ever so classic Audrey Hepburn and I was all here for it.|Photo Source: Getty Images via Zimbio|

Kiki Layne

Kiki Layne got the pretty in pink memo for the night. Representing If Beale Street Could Talk, she walked the red carpet in Atelier Versace. While this may have been her first go at award season, she looked like a pro absolutely slaying every red carpet look during the season. |Photo Source: Getty Images via Zimbio|

Brie Larson

Brie Larson shined in a silver Celine gown. I’m sure a few people were blinded by the dress, but she was absolutely stunning. She stood tall with a high neckline and high leg slit. The Academy Award winner presented an award later on in the night and can soon be seen in Captain Marvel. |Photo Source: Getty Images via Zimbio|

Gemma Chan

Gemma Chan was definitely one of the actresses to watch this season. She walked the red carpet in Maison Valentino, wearing one of the most popular colors of the night, pink. As always, she looked elegant and poised even with the pockets! Aside from her success from Crazy Rich Asians, Gemma Chan will soon be back on the big screen alongside Brie Larson in Captain Marvel. |Photo Source: Getty Images via Zimbio|

Emilia Clarke

Emilia Clarke will always be Khaleesi – always. Before presenting Jennifer Hudson’s performance, she sparkled on the red carpet in a lavender colored Balmain gown. She always looks like a classic Hollywood actress, but adds some modern flare to her looks. As a fan of Game of Thrones, I’m hoping that a picture of her and Jason Momoa resurfaces. |Photo Source: Getty Images via Zimbio|
