Hannah, and while it
could just be a gag bit, out of the goodness of my heart, I’m going to assume her Sebastian Stanning is 100% sincere. Hannah has been all up in the Triple J Facebook page throughout the Hottest 100, making some bold calls on potential Guy placements:
“Prediction (Guy Sebastian only ofc) 1. Battlescars 2. Who’s that girl 3. Love on display 4. Choir”
When
The Clap, Hannah was ropeable, saying:
“Another scar for Guy Sebastian I guess”
She became increasingly upset as the countdown continued:
“Surely
Scomo could get Guy Sebastian on the hottest 100? Do this one good thing mate”
Taylor Swift holds for a second week at No.1 on the ARIA Albums Chart with her ninth album “evermore”, with the set debuting at the top in both America and Canada this past week.
For most of the past decade, Taylor Swift has had an album near the top of the charts at the end of most years, but it’s the first time that she’s had the last No.1 album of the year. Previously she got close with “1989” which spent it’s fourth of nine weeks at the top on December 22nd, 2014 (2nd last week of that year). Previously she was a final-quarter-of-the-year leader with “Speak Now” (8th of Nov., 2010), “Red” (third and final week on 12th of Nov., 2012), the aforementioned “1989” in 2014, “Reputation” (second and final week on Nov. 27th, 2017) and then last years “Lover” (2nd of Sept., 2019).
Taylor Swift issued a surprise ninth studio album last week called “evermore”, which debuts at No.1 on this week’s ARIA Albums Chart, giving her a second chart-topping album for 2020.
The new Taylor set “evermore” becomes the 901st No.1 Album in Australia (1965 to 2020), the 751st for ARIA (1983 to 2020), the 39th No.1 for the year (2020), the 538th album to debut at No.1 (1976 to 2020), the 16th No.1 for record label for Republic (Universal) and the seventh No.1 for Taylor Swift, plus she has now achieved the smallest gap between No.1 albums at five months and three weeks (3-Aug-2020 to 21-Dec-2020), the previous holder was Ariana Grande with “Sweetener” (27-Aug-18) to “thank u, next” (18-Feb-2019), just on six months.

Great Southern Nights saw more than 2,500 artists perform at over 300 venues
Australia - More than 75,000 tickets were sold as part of the NSW Government’s recent Great Southern Nights performance series held throughout November which is Australian Music Month. Great Southern Nights delivered 1,100 COVID-safe performances to live music venues in over 140 towns and suburbs throughout the state. The aim was to reinvigorate NSW’s live music scene, which took a significant hit at the onset of the coronavirus pandemic. Presented in partnership with ARIA, Great Southern Nights saw more than 2,500 artists perform at over 300 venues, with many high-profile names heading to regional venues to perform.
Jessie from Canberra has a filthy confession.
“Until a few years ago, I was a last minute voter,” she told us. “I think I even missed voting a couple of times and I just felt bad about it, so the last couple of years I’ve changed.”
To some, the idea that a red-blooded Australian citizen with two ears and a smartphone should somehow miss literally the only important date in any calendar year is unthinkable. To others? Jessie’s story is uncomfortably familiar.
But Jessie’s a success story - someone who not just made the system work for her, but who excels in it. In 2020, she scooped the title of our very first Hottest 100 voter. So how did she get back on track?
