Bikini Plus May 2024

In the course of a career lasting just over 30 years, Dalida earned 45 gold record awards and a pair of platinum records for her sales in Europe, the Middle East, and Japan. A superstar in France and much of the rest of Europe, Dalida enjoyed hit records in three different decades, despite an increasingly troubled personal life after the early '60s.

In the two years since their debut, The Linda Lindas—whose members, as of 2024, are ages 14 to 20—have opened for the Rolling Stones and Green Day, collaborated with members of Bikini Kill, and played both Coachella the the Scripps National Spelling Bee (the first band to ever do so). The word phenomenon does not seem like an overstatement. They've also grown as songwriters and musicians, with the three singers clearly finding their own paths. You hear it right away with bassist Eloise Wong absolutely howling on thrash monster "No Obligation": "You'd like me better if I grew out my hair/ You'd like me better if I wasn't a mess/ You'd like me better if I put on a dress."
