oh my gosh, he lives. i was about to send out an sos signal to find you. oh trust me, i know it's been a hot minute. if you hated me all you had to do was say so, teller. just let a girl down easy next time. i kid, i kid. i'm currently not working at the moment. i went back home to do a little bit of work things, and then i spent some much needed time at my parents house. so i guess that counts as a jealousy-inducing vacation? that's gross. when do you have some time off coming up?
sup, debnam-carey. it's been a hot minute since we've chatted but i'm about to fix that and come talk your ear off the next time we're in the same room. are you working right now or are you taking another jealousy-inducing vacation? tell me all about it, i'm still stuck at work for another few weeks and no fun time off has made me a boring boy. / @alyvas
debnamcarey: you tell my husband that i love him. @.oliverstark

icygurlsaweetie: girl.....what happened? 👀 @DebnamCarey
i think so. i think that's when it starts to feel real for most people, unless mama feels the active kicks all the time. how far along is she? how much time do you have to prepare? oh, they are very lucky. i'm gonna be sending so many care packages.
that is probably really true. i think when i hear that heart beat it will start to feel more and more real. how lucky are we to have auntie alycia spoiling our newest little nugget? very lucky so lucky
i'm sorry! i'm a terrible person for depriving you of such joys, but i promise the second we are in the same place for more than a day i will carry out this much needed, in person catch up. i was actually in prague with a boy— the boy, if you will. i'm usually not one to kiss and tell but— it's you so i will.
Betrayal. Actual betrayal. I was fully ready to throw on sweats, pour us two obnoxiously full glasses of wine, and live out our long-overdue catch-up in person. I'm kidding. That sounds incredible though! What were you doing in Prague? And virtual hangout it is. You better come prepared with stories.
we love that you are staying booked and busy, not only for ourselves, but for you as well. you deserve to have everything you touch turn into gold, and the love that follows is more than deserved. i personally can't wait for new music, and i'm gonna be the first one refreshing apple music so i can listen to the absolute bangers you are going to release to the world.
haha your aren’t the first person to tell me that and i honestly can’t be mad at it. i wasn’t really expecting sos to get as big as it did and then to come back right behind it with lana the deluxe version and it being just as big really put some fire in me. i am working on another album so don’t you worry. i of course will go and watch this one.
i knew you were the right person for the job. i think if i twist this script into a rom com, you'd be the perfect boyfriend to sweep some lady off of her feet. the type that the audience roots for the entire time. thank you so much! i am still buzzing about landing the role. i had no idea when i auditioned that i would even make the cut. i was going against some pretty big names for that role, so being among the few who were picked— it's legendary. plus i do get to go toe to toe with titans— and hopefully i'm the one working with godzilla, and not against him. i did. walking away was difficult, and i didn't have much going for me job wise, so it was a huge risk. fear was a constant paycheck and i was taking a huge leap of faith on myself, but it worked out well in my favor. i appreciate you, more than you know. your friendship has meant so much to me. ha— i'll just tell them to put you in the next one. i have connections with them now.
you know i’m ride or die — opening scene, closing credits, hell, i’d even be that guy who gets resurrected in the post-credits scene if that’s what it takes. i’m committed. but seriously, i’m holding you to that promise. this character? no dying off early. he’s sticking around until the end, making it count with a slow-motion walk to insert epic finale here. we’re talking legendary status. and hey, godzilla vs. kong? that’s next-level cool. you get to go toe-to-toe with radioactive titans, and i’m honestly just waiting to see what kind of destruction you bring to the screen. talk about an iconic moment — forget the MCU, this is where the real action’s at. you’re gonna crush it. i can already see you owning that role and being the one everyone remembers when the credits roll. i feel you on all of that. when something starts losing its authenticity, it’s hard to stay invested. you’re right — alicia deserved way more than what they were handing out. there’s a point where you just have to step back and go, “i’m worth more than this.” you saw that and walked away, and that takes guts. if it ever gets to the point where they realize they messed up and bring that fire back, they’ll owe you an apology for not recognizing the potential when it was staring them right in the face. but hey, if you ever need a sounding board, or just someone to send you the most ridiculous motivational messages when you're feeling like you’re in the trenches, i’m here. honestly, I’m so glad to be cheering you on — don’t ever forget that you’re gonna go far. and if i ever start getting jealous of your epic godzilla vs. kong role, i’ll just blame it on the radioactive fallout.
alycia: i've been the worst not checking in, but i wanted to see how you and the family were doing? i bet that little bundle of joy you have is growing like a weed. how have you been? catch me up on everything. @luhmmings
right? i remember when buying tickets was so easy. the only struggle you had was getting to the will call station before they ran out of tickets. now you have to wait in some stupid queue, and if you have shitty internet? you are toast. i wish artist had more power as well. i feel like it's one of those things they should be in control of, or at least those who help put the tour together. would make life so much easier for everyone. i would love to go! just tell me where you will be and i'd love to go. isn't she? the world wasn't ready for her, but i am so glad we got her. i bet that was a dream to perform with them. my dad is a musician and his music has always had a heavy metallica influence, so he's super excited.
It was very different in my concert-going days. I mostly just stood in line at a physical ticket office for hours, even overnight, which I guess some people are still doing some version of for the pit but mostly fighting that war online. It does suck, and believe me when I say that artists wish they had more power. Thank you so much! I hope to see you there? I have a few tickets set aside for anyone who missed out, or who just didn't think they'd get a chance to go. Sabrina is incredible, isn't she? Haven't seen her in concert but have at an award show and she is something special. Oh, wow, you should be excited. I performed with them at the Grammy's one year and they're an elite talent. Enjoy, lovely! Both of you!
