I've escaped my capture, and I have no master.

++ Zedd and Kesha have officially released the studio version of "True Colors", the one she performed at Coachella, which you can buy now on iTunes. The money won't be going to her abuser, so no need to worry about that in order to support her. The song itself is a perfect mantra for her and she sings it so beautifully. I'm just so happy that she has found a loophole to find a way of working with other producers, which hopefully soon she will be releasing her own music. ♥

++ Alicia Vikander has been cast as Lara Croft in the new Tomb Raider film franchise reboot. I know some were banking on Daisy Ridley or even Alycia Debnam-Carey, but I'm pleased with this announcement. I think she's a wonderful actress and I can totally see her portraying Lara.

++ I may be going to a local Wizard World Comic Con in June, mostly because it's relatively very close to where I live. So far the only people I want to see is Jewel Staite and Hayley Atwell. I don't think I'll do anything extravagant aside from going to their panels, especially since scheduling is subject to change at any given point between now and then. I haven't returned to the convention scene since attending Dracon*Con in 2011, but I've always wanted to and this is the closest opportunity I'll get since it's in my hometown.

First two are such good news! When I heard she had performed it made me super happy. And now I'm off to go listen to the song!

NGL after seeing how amazing she was in TMFU and all the rave reviews she got for Ex Machina, I'm totally cool with it. I liked the other two you mentioned as well but I knew there was no way it was gonna be Daisy.

I hope you get to go! Hayley is such a sweetheart by all accounts.

I know her legal situation hasn't gone away yet, but it makes me so overjoyed at seeing something released from her, even if it isn't her song it is still her singing and doing something that she loves. ♥

There was a small chance that Daisy could've gotten the role, I think, since it can be possible that she can land another major role after her breakout major role. Nevertheless though, as much as it would've been pretty sweet seeing her in the role, I'm happy that Alicia got the part.

I'm hoping so, too.

Yes! That's exactly how I feel. I've always loved her music and so it's nice to see that she can still do what she loves and we can all enjoy it.

While that's true, I kind of have a feeling that Hollywood wouldn't be so keen on one single woman being the lynchpin of too many series'
