All of the stars were pres- ent on stage or via video at a press conference this after-

“We come together before you on this day, March 30 2015, with one voice in unity, in the hopes that today will be another one of those mo- ments in time. A moment that will forever change the course of music history. For today, we announce the launch of Tidal, the first ever artist owned, global music and entertainment platform.
Our goal is simple. We
want to create a better serv- ice and a better experience for both fans and artists. And that is our promise to the world.
Our mission goes beyond commerce. It goes beyond technology. Our intent is to preserve music’s importance in our lives.
Music is the language of love, of laughter, of heart- break, of mystery. It’s the world’s true, without ques- tion, universal language. There’s not a soul living that can deny its impact.”
Jamie Foxx was accom- panied by collaborator Chris Brown for his silky new bal- lad, “You Changed Me,” at the 2015 iHeartRadio Music Awards in Los Angeles on March 29.
In the first live debut of
the single, Foxx and Brown delivered a suave perform- ance, which kept fans on their feet.

Zoe Kravitz Talks About Eating Disorder
Having famous parents may have opened doors for Zoë Kravitz, but it also came with its own pressure.
“I had a really hard time when I was 16, 17, 18. I started with the eating disorder in high school ...,” the 26-year- old daughter of actress Lisa Bonet and rocker Lenny Kravitz said in the April/May issue of Complex. “Just [a hard time] loving myself.”
Her disordered eating reared its head years later, when she played a character dealing with anorexia in the 2014 dramedy “The Road Within.”
The Divergent star’s pa- rents were worried — her mother burst into tears when she returned home from the set one day — and they had good reason to be. Zoë ended up losing weight for the role, so much that her period was thrown off, her immune sys-
