bodega: Last News

This Is Me … Now: A Love Story,” when she takes her hair down and says, “It reminds me like, when I was 16 in The Bronx running up and down the block.” The Castle Hill native turned Tinseltown superstar was mocked for using the borough for relatability points — working-class stolen valor.Then a clip surfaced from Lopez’s 2022 interview for Vogue’s “73 Questions” video series in which she reveals her go-to bodega order: ham and cheese on a roll, a small bag of chips and an orange drink.She added of the mysterious drink, “If you know, you know.” TikTok users said they did not.I admit, I don’t either. Bodegas and convenience stores used to hawk some dodgy food and drinks, so it could have been any number of suspicious carrot-colored concoctions.In the ’80s and early ’90s — likely the last time Lopez crossed the threshold of a dingy ol’ neighborhood bodega — offerings were less varied and way more simple. This was before sandwiches were made for social media, with a pile of ingredients higher than the sky, and there was no arsenal of fancy snacks and beverage brands.Instead, we had littleplastic containers of liquid in every color in the rainbow.

BODEGA have released their new single ‘Myrtle Parade’ and announced a deluxe edition of their latest album, ‘Our Brand Could Be Yr Life’.The band first announced the record in January and shared its title track ‘Tarkovski’. Their third studio LP, it was released in April.Now, they have shared details of a digital deluxe edition of the album, titled ‘Brand On The Run’, which will be released on November 1 via Chrysalis Records.

Bronx go-to bodega order went viral in March after the singer mentioned an “orange drink” that “if you know, you know.” However, New Yorkers did in fact not know about the drink, and they ruthlessly roasted Lopez, 54, on social media. Some of them visited different Bronx bodegas to find the unspecified orange drink, and shared their failed experiences on TikTok.After staying quiet about the topic for two months, Lopez elaborated on her favorite orange drink — and acknowledged the fan backlash that came with it — in a new interview with Harper’s Bazaar published Wednesday.

Jennifer Lopez is still getting ruthlessly mocked. Last week, she got trolled for a clip from her film “This Is Me … Now: A Love Story.”And now, Lopez’s Bronx go-to bodega order is going viral.

BODEGA have announced their new LP ‘Our Brand Could Be Yr Life’ and have shared its lead single ‘Tarkovski’.Along with the release of ‘Tarkovski’ the New York band – comprised of Ben Hozie, Nikki Belfiglio, Dan Ryan, Adam See and Adam Shumski – also made the B-side to the single, ‘Adaptation of the Truth About Marie’, available exclusively from Bodega’s Bandcamp.Speaking about ‘Tarkovski’ in a press release, Hozie said: “‘Tarkovski’ is a pun on the famous Russian director and skiing; I was enamoured by his book “Sculpting in Time” but found that many of his professed rules and guidelines for filmmaking were broken by his own filmmaking practices.”He continued: “Theory never really gets at what you want and applying theory to the chaotic practice of art making (while still useful and essential) is like skiing down a wild slope.”Directed by Luca Balser, the track’s accompanying video stars Belfiglio’s mother and quotes the climactic candle-carrying sequence in Tarkovsky’s 1983 feature-length ‘Nostalghia’ but quickly veers from studied long takes into punchy pop vogueing.BODEGA’s third LP ‘Our Brand Could Be Yr Life’ is a complete remake of Hozie and Belfiglio’s old band, BODEGA BAY’s sole album which was a 33 track self-released LP from 2015.A press release describes the album as a “concept album about the current corporate mentality of underground/indie rock, where the band simultaneously desecrate and celebrate a certain indie rock cannon, hoping to redeem its’ ‘fall from grace’ like foolish missionaries who inherited a stained formal tradition that needs to change in order to become meaningful again.”‘Our Brand Could Be Yr Life’ is set for release on April 12 via their new label home under Chrysalis Records.A post

BODEGA have shared nine versions of their new single ‘Statuette On The Console’, each in a different language.Clocking in at just over two minutes, the ultra-catchy bubblegum-punk cut arrives in English, Dutch, French, German, Greek, Italian, Portuguese, Spanish and Ukrainian.“‘Statuette on the Console’ is a celebration of shedding other people’s ideology. When writing the song I was trying to understand myself by exploring my values, but I could only come up against what I was not,” the band’s Nikki Belfiglio says.“The ability to believe and the comfort of ideology or isms is not one I have within me although as the song says, I myself live by my own inherited platitudes.”In addition to singing lead vocals on ‘Statuette’, Belfiglio also directed a video for the English version.
