Kacey Musgraves Teases Australian Tour At Anime Awards
The win sparked some debate with fans, following Solo Levelling's eight other awards across multiple categories. One user in the r/SoloLeveling Reddit thread said they were "genuinely surprised" at the sweep, with another defending it — "Let's not pretend that Solo Leveling isn't a fun watch". Country music heavy hitter, Kacey Musgraves hit the stage to announce the award of the night, in a Sailor Moon-inspired outfit no less. Kacey's love for anime isn't known to everyone but listeners of her most recent album, Deeper Well would be familiar with the song "Anime Eyes" — where she references famous Japanese animator Hayao Miyazaki and fan-fave, Sailor Moon. The track is inspired by the exaggerated, animated reactions you'd see from anime character in love. Ahead of her Anime Awards appearance, we sat down with the "Rainbow" singer to dive into where her anime obsession started, coming back to her roots at Lost Highway Records and Australian touring plans. BFOZ: Why was it important for you to come to Tokyo and present at the Crunchyroll Anime Awards? BFOZ: Speaking of coming back, you've recently returned to your roots at Lost Highway Records. What can fans expect from the move? Kasey: That was my first label home, and then it got shut down shortly after. So for it to be resurrected and me being a big part of that and recording a song that was written in the 40s, and my grandpa was speaking on the song, it was really special. BFOZ: Some people might find that country music and anime are worlds apart — does it ever feel strange bringing those two universes together? BFOZ: You mentioned this on stage during the Deeper Well tour but we'd love to dig a little deeper. What was the inspiration behind your song "Anime Eyes"? Kasey: I think that American animators tend to, how do I say it? I think they tend to, what the fuck is the word? underestimate. I think American children programs can underestimate the viewer, and I love that with Japanese animation there's just so much emotion and put in moments between moments. It's hard to explain, but it's just so delicate and nuanced and I don't know. It's just special. And I just fell in love with that and yeah, it's awesome. BFOZ: Coming into the anime world very young, what role does it play in your life now? BFOZ: Are there any particular favourites that you gravitate towards to get that escape? BFOZ: And finally, if it were somehow possible to go and live in an anime universe, which one would it be? What were your thoughts on the 2025 Crunchyroll Anime Awards?

Kacey Musgraves reveals if she's really quit weed for good
Kacey Musgraves has insisted she hasn't totally quit marijuana. The 36-year-old country star sang about "getting rid" of certain habits in her 2024 track 'Deeper Well' and later said in an interview that she weed was "not for this chapter" of her life, but now she's clarified her stance. She told The Hollywood Reporter: 'Um, I never said I don't ever partake. 'I just don't wake up and hit a gravity bong the size of my face anymore, which is what I did for a long time. "But, hey, more power to whatever suits you.' In her 2013 track 'Follow Your Arrow', she urged listeners to "kiss lots of boys, or kiss lots of girls", and "roll up a joint, or don't". The song's referencing to homosexuality and cannabis sparked controversy among the country music scene's more conservative circles. She recalled: "Oh my gosh, it was so controversial. I was told not to [release the song] and all these reasons why." She added: "It ended up tanking — it was banned by country radio. But I would never trade that for the love and the people it brought to my world. "I'm not going to present a watered-down version of myself to be accepted. I'll f****** shovel s*** for a living at a horse barn, and I'll be really happy. Or I'll just be a songwriter. Anyway, it ended up working out." Last year, Kacey told The Cut that she was leaving her stoner persona behind. She quipped: "It's not for this chapter. Maybe later, when I'm a 60-year-old lady with nothing to do and I'm just doing pottery all day, maybe. We'll see." Meanwhile, the 'Rainbow' hitmaker also reflected on the fallout of her divorce 2020 divorce from Ruston Kelly, and subsequent romance with now-ex boyfriend Cole Shafer, which she shared a lot on Instagram. She said: 'I don't regret living and loving as hard as I do. Whenever I'm in a relationship, I'm all f****** in. "I think that hesitancy breeds hesitancy, and if you go in with something with one foot, it's going to fail. 'After divorce, it's like on one hand I do want to self-protect, but at the same time, if your heart is feeling open, I think you have to just show up for it. I'm still trying to figure out the balance of that.'

Taylor Swift and Beyoncé lead country music sales boom in UK
A 'golden age' of country music is upon Britain, figures suggest, as the genre has recorded its most popular level this century. Country's share of the music market increased again last year. Artists such as Shaboozey and Dasha have helped to lure younger generations to the genre. Its increasing popularity can also be seen outside the charts. The all-female country-pop trio Remember Monday is set to represent Britain at this year's Eurovision Song Contest. Until 2019, country music's share of the UK singles market never rose above 1 per cent, according to the British Phonographic Industry (BPI), which represents record labels. It took 2.1 per cent of the market in 2023 and the latest figures show it accounted for 3.3 per cent of singles sales and streams last year. Some of the albums credited for the boost include Beyoncé's Cowboy Carter, Kacey Musgraves's Deeper Well and Zach Bryan's The Great American Bar Scene. Country music's 2.9 per cent album share — up from 2.5 per cent in 2023 — is the highest since 1999, when Shania Twain's Come on Over was at No 1 for 11 weeks. The resurgence of country in Britain has been boosted by the annual Country to Country (C2C) festival. This year's acts, including Lainey Wilson and the Castellows, were spread across London, Glasgow and Belfast. This month the Royal Albert Hall is hosting the two-day Highways Festival, while last year Morgan Wallen became the first country artist to headline the BST concerts in Hyde Park, London, which drew 50,000 people. • How London went crazy for country music Baylen Leonard, creative director of the Long Road Festival, which is due to be held in August in Leicestershire, said that there were increasingly more opportunities 'for UK fans to dive into the world of country music'. 'It's a golden age for country music in the UK, with a steady and sustained rise in popularity for a few years now, thanks not only to massive crossover appeal of the music itself, but a willingness from major country acts to come and play in the UK,' Leonard, who is also a DJ on Absolute Radio, said. Jo Twist, chief executive of the BPI, said the 'Taylor Swift effect' had also helped grow the genre's appeal among younger audiences. Twist added: 'Country's rising popularity was one of music's best-kept secrets, but packed-out crowds at events like C2C and the Long Road festival and the genre's growing streaming numbers suggested it was only a matter of time before the mainstream caught up.' Jeff Smith, head of BBC Radio 2 and 6 Music, said the rise might be due to a 'growing reaction to the domination of rhythmic music' over the past two decades, adding that he thought it had 'led to some people looking for more emotionally powerful lyrics and interesting, often rawer melodies … that is the criteria of country music'.

Kacey Musgraves details extent of her past drug use... but laughs off the idea that she's totally sober
Eight-time Grammy winner Kacey Musgraves revealed she has significantly cut back on her marijuana use during an interview with The Hollywood Reporter. Although she laughed off the notion that she is completely sober, the country star, 36, set the record straight on whether she is still gets high and how often. 'I never said I don't ever partake,' she told the outlet. 'I just don't wake up and hit a gravity bong the size of my face anymore, which is what I did for a long time. But, hey, more power to whatever suits you.' Last year, it was widely reported that Golden Hour hitmaker was done with cannabis after she told The Cut that pot was 'not for this chapter' of her life. 'Maybe later, when I'm a 60-year-old lady with nothing to do and I'm just doing pottery all day, maybe. We'll see,' she said, at the time. Still, she said she wasn't quitting all mind-bending substances. During the 2024 interview, Musgraves also confessed to being a fan of psilocybin, the naturally occurring psychedelic compound produced by more than 200 species of fungi, aka magic mushrooms. 'When used with intention, I think it's a massive dose of compassion and reverence for nature, fellow humans, yourself,' she claimed to the outlet. In the title track to her sixth studio album, Deeper Well, released last year, she admitted that she 'used to wake and bake.' After those eyebrow-raising lyrics, she went on to declare she was 'getting rid of the habits that' she feels are 'real good at wasting' her time. During her chat with THR, Musgraves also reflected on how her 2013 track, Follow Your Arrow, which embraces weed and homosexuality, upset a lot of conservatives. 'Oh my gosh, it was so controversial. I was told not to [release the song] and all these reasons why,' she recalled to THR. 'I was nervous... it ended up tanking — it was banned by country radio.' Still, the singer insists she would never had traded that 'for the love and the people it brought' into her world. 'I'm not going to present a watered-down version of myself to be accepted,' she explained. 'Anyway, it ended up working out.' When asked if she can see how Follow Your Arrow helped make the country music scene more inclusive, Musgraves, a vocal ally for the LGBTQ+ community, clarified that she never set out to 'some martyr or freaking rule-breaker.' 'I'm just doing my job as a songwriter. When you look at country music as a genre and where it started, it is really textured, beautiful layers of real stories, heartbreak, things that aren't always easy to talk about,' she stated. 'It's stories for the everyday person.' Musgraves, who lives in Nashville, Tennessee, noted during the interview that she was on route to rural Williamsport, about an hour from her home. 'A good friend of mine has a beautiful farm on hundreds of acres,' the Texas native gushed. 'It's on the Duck River, which is one of the most biologically diverse rivers in the world. It has all these specific species of things that don't exist anywhere else.' While there, she raved about the 'peaceful environment' where she and her friends like to picnic and just live their 'best lives — barefoot, dirty, in the river.' 'It's so fun,' she said. Trips like these have, ultimately, influenced some of her most popular songs, like Space Cowboy, Butterflies, Cardinal and Oh What a World. Musgraves, who recently announced her return to the newly relaunched Lost Highway Records, pointed out that excursions like these and horseback riding have become 'an outlet for tranquility' in her hectic world. 'It's something that takes me outside of looking at my phone screen,' she explained. 'It gets me to look up, look out, breathe oxygen in.'
