I'm assuming Alex won't be choosing the single until after New Year's Day (unless she's chosen it already) and then I guess they've got to find the right director for NMY/S so maybe the video shoot will take place late January/early February. In the US though, doesn't the single premiere and get sent to radio before any video is shot.

There's not exactly a set rule, but for larger artists then yes. Alex is debuting though so it makes sense to have everything out there, so she can get as much promotion as possible.

Has any new evidence surfaced?

Is there any evidence though?
I've learned with Alex to not assume anything until I see concrete evidence tbh.

Yes he retweeted a tweet from an Epic A&R which was "wishing his Epic team happy holidays". He mentioned Jojo so I think that's pretty solid evidence that Jojo is now at Epic.
Personally I think Jojo has become Alex's A&R at Epic which is why he is so involved in all the single decisions etc. I think he's now both her manager and A&R at Epic.

Ok well that seems concrete enough. That's great news! Has Jojo had any experience as an A&R man?

That's pretty amazing!
Alex has really been making those moves for her big launch next year, I knew she could do it!
I really can't wait for her to smash and shut up all the jealous trash talkers in the UK, I'm she can't wait either!

She looks great. I think she's planning a new hairstyle soon before the new era starts. She always does it right before a campaign begins.

Well we'll see. It's still not 100% solid confirmation that Alex is at Epic, but it's about 98% there. Her manager works there now, so I'd be very surprised if she wasn't on Epic.
I'm excited for her. I just hope she gets the big budget she deserves.

i'm in shock haha i thought she had short hair
Jojo spent christmas with Alex... god, he is really dedicating her life to her lol
makes you wonder if anything more is happening, just saying! Not many managers would stay with their artist in the holiday season, especially when alex is partying up wid her fam.

I swear he's married with kids though? And I don't think Alex is like that. That's only an option when you have no talent to get anywhere.
Managers can be very close friends, and Alex is a friendly person. I remember her being good friends with Parami, and later Char as well.

Nothing is happening with jojo and Alex. I believe they have a spiritual bond they both have the same vision, and both want good vibes and progression

I know like...i thought the same tbh. It may be dedication...but I did wonder why he was with her in the UK. He does have kids but I dunno if he's married. Either way it's her business I just hope she isn't a fool with her business. Relationships can get messy. See Mariah v Sony and Motola as an example. Her natural hair would be long lol she's been growing it since 2008 lol. In fact it's not that long tbh it was in between her shoulders and her ears in 2008. It's thicker than anything else

Exhibit A: Rita WhOra.
Alex looks mighty fine au natural. I wonder if she'd ever dare to get an afro - similar to what Solange was rocking in the 'Losing You' video. I don't know if it'd suit Alex's face though.
Can we take a minute to appreciate this incredible cover of Janet Jackson's Lets Wait Awhile?
Just listen to that power in her voice, I just love it and can't believe I forgot about it!

When compared to Janet's original I definitely think Alex's is better tbh -

It's her natural hair, it would do. Solange's has been styled. Alex's would be more round imo.

Well in that case she could go really old-school with that look. It'd make her also look more authentic to the African-American demographic.

I would like her to do that on certain shows deffo. She really can have the best of both worlds if they're smart.
Her VEVO is a mess. lol
