? Step forward, miss Hailee Steinfeld. This is no vanity project, Hailee’s been working with Mattman and Robin (Carly Rae Jepsen and more), and the end result is a Scandi-pop beauty. There’s a la la la bit, a line that shouts “I love me!” and an overall blissful sense of just doing whatever the heck you want. All in all, we’re very impressed. perfect summer pop song.

Zero of the week is pop-star beefs, as Taylor Swift is happily now friends with Kanye. She told Vanity Fair: "I feel like I wasn't ready to be friends with him until I felt like he had some sort of respect for me, and he wasn't ready to be friends with me until he had some sort of respect for me – so it was the same issue (...) And then Kanye and I both reached a place where he would say really nice things about my music and what I've accomplished, and I could ask him how his kid's doing."
