My dream for Angelina Jolie was that she has some fun with The Weeknd (Abel Tesfaye) and that Jonny Lee Miller gets jealous and that there are two men vying for her love, and ultimately JLM comes out ahead. That was my dream simply because I love JLM and I love the idea that Jonny and Angelina could give it another go. But here we are: it’s looking more like Abel is the one romancing Angelina. The Weeknd just dropped his new album, Dawn FM. Some of the lyrics reference the idea of Abel banging a movie star.
The Weeknd has appeared to confirm he is dating Angelina Jolie, after they were photographed on a string of dates together last year. The superstar released his new album Dawn FM this morning and on one song called Here We Go… Again he sings: “My new girl, she’s a movie star.”
Appearing to refer to sleeping with her, he continues: “I loved her right, make her scream like Neve Campbell. But I make her laugh, swear it cures my depressing thoughts. I told myself that I’d never fall, but here we go again.”
On another track called Starry Eyes on the new 16-track album, The Weeknd, 31, appears to refer to the fact that the actress, 46, has been single since splitting from Brad Pitt in September 2016.
He sings: “You weren’t touched by a man in so long. ‘Cause the last time it was way too strong.”
At another point he croons: “Now you’re my reality and I wanna feel you close.”
I mean… maybe. Maybe it’s Angelina. It’s probably Angelina. I hope Jonny is okay. I hope he’s prepared to fight for her! What’s our vibe on how Angelina could potentially react to this from Abel? Did she know about the lyrics? Did she get approval over the lyrics? The thing I’m catching on is that she has teenagers in her house. Teenagers who probably listen to The Weeknd, teenagers who possibly stream Dawn FM. Awkward.
I joked earlier this week about how Abel “aged” himself for the album cover to impress Angelina, but now I think it might be true.

I think these are his wishful thinking lyrics.
Yes to make the news – but I think Angelina approved the line that last time she was touched “it was way too strong” referencing the Brad Pitt’s abuse.
Abel is the only man that has verbalized/acknowledged that Angie was abused by Brad. I am certain this is his way of loving and supporting Angie, through his lyrics.
Maybe I’m in the minority but these lyrics are gross and seem like a fever dream. I wouldn’t be flattered by this. Maybe he did tell her about the lyrics and she was okay with it????
+ 1 this is crass
his lyrics are always steeped in misogyny and show no respect to women, especially the women they are alleged to be about.
100%. She hadn’t been banged in so long so I stepped in and did her right is essentially what he is saying. Gross. Like AJ couldn’t get laid by simply raising an eyebrow at any man within a mile.
And if she didn’t approve the lyrics, way to break someone’s trust who had her own very good reasons to stay away from men over the last few years by making that shit public when she has clearly tried to keep her life private.
THIS. I was disappointed when I learned they were dating.
Oh thank god you said it first! My first thought was “eeww”, followed quickly by “you wish!” She is solar systems out of his league.
Guys, The weeknd just removed the lyrics video…..
Agreed – gross. And if done without the permission of whichever woman he’s referring to, really inappropriate.
Totally agree. So cringey.
Just date her in private, the whole world doesn’t need to know.
Yeah it’s kind of icky to me too.
Agree. This is creepy for both women: . I” loved her right, make her scream like Neve Campbell.”
Also, sounds like a really bad song.
I really don’t think they are dating but if I’m wrong, there’s nothing wrong with a casual fling.
Gross. This could be anyone. His lyrics are really same old stuff. She deserves better. He’s gorgeous but ugh, his shtick is soooo tired.
Gorgeous? Are we talking about the same guy??
Considering that Angelina likes to be discreet about her hook-ups…
She knows who Abel is and that he sings about his romances. She is the only movie star he has been connected with. Maybe she will say something but I doubt she cares. Or maybe she wants it out there for her own purposes
Exactly – she knows who he is. She has a history of being discreet, and he has a history of writing about his gf’s. That’s why I don’t believe that a hook-up ever occurred, except in his wildest dreams.
The lyrics video was just taken down…..
Gross misogynistic lyrics. No women deserve .
Guys fall hard for AJ and who can blame them. If she’s having fun with him then good for her.
Eh…not cool with the song. Not a big fan of his — maybe there’s been a fling between the two…that’s a big MAYBE, but definitely not a relationship. I think after what she’s been through, she’ll think twice about being in another relationship with a high-profile artist or actor. And am I the only one NOT shipping Jonny and Angelina? I see them as friends, not lovers. Jonny, like Brad, is the past when it comes to relationships. I’m hoping for someone brand new for her.
Abel just keep Angie out of your lyrics, thank you!
I really have no clue what women see in him.
Me neither. So gross.
@Anna @ Persephone
I don’t even know who he is but I agree just based on what I have seen and read
I asked my oldest granddaughter about him and it was eye roll and ewwwwwww, so that tells me all I probably need or want to know
I agree with the majority here, those lyrics are gross, unclassy and I hate him divulging personal infos about her life. She deserves better. Hope she had her fun though
Maybe in his dreams that happened, but if it had, she has children. Wow, just no consideration for her or them. I don’t know what women see in him either.
Hahaha the photo of those awful extensions. Oh my.
Abel’s been gross to me. His lyrics are always about the same ish. Misogyny and drug use. He recently described himself as being “sober lite” after admitting to a coke/drug addiction. I really hope they aren’t dating because he’s definitely not a positive influence to bring around the kids. Yuck.
I would hope that Angelina would give that a HARD pass after the whole Brad bullsh*t.
Not too classy of a lyric there, considering Angelina is a GODDESS, a humanitarian icon and a mother of six. Hard pass.
So many artists that people say are really good are pitiful lyricists. This writing freaking sucks.
Abel’s song is about Angelina but it’s not about Angelina. It’s a bit of mutually beneficial pr. At least in the eyes of some. Irks me that whether you’re Zendeya or Angelina marketing a project still involves proving that someone is panting over you. I don’t love Abel for Angelina. I think she deserves way better. But I’m happy for Abel that he didn’t go back to the same place this go around.
I agree. He got a lot of inspiration from her especially with Starry eyes and the movie star comment, but that doesn’t you should take either for face value (okay maybe Starry eyes). He exaggerates his lyrics so it’s nothing new
I pull for JLM and Angie too. They’re so pretty together and he’s like the only man in her life, brother and sons excluded, blood or romantic, who hasn’t let her down or betrayed her in some way. But even if it’s just friends or friends with benefits, I’m glad she has him in her life.
there was a picture of her (someone that looks like her) a few weeks back so I back on the jlm train too!

oh no… my shadow/anxious attachment/depression/perfectionism is very attracted to that BS. At least I can see that you are all correct. he’s being the worst. the hurt part of me just wants the worst. damn. This omicron wave is really getting me down.
You’re going to be okay. We’re all a bit romance-starved these days. And entertaining a poor impulse about romance isn’t the same as acting on one!
I hope that’s the case otherwise it’s a sh*tty thing to do. She’s a very private person and she’s been through so much with her divorce. She’s also fiercely protective of her kids. I hope he released these lyrics with her knowledge.
y’all gotta let JLM go he’ balding she can do better but i think we won’t ever see her dating anyone seriously again. She’ll just hook up with people without strings.
OK but can we talk about how obvious/awful Angelina’s extensions are in these photos? Jesus.
He’s been dating someone else (Simi) since last year but I think it’s obvious he would have stopped seeing Simi if Angelina reciprocated.
I definitely don’t like how he’s bringing up her trauma in a song. I hope she’s okay with that.
Wowwwww. Simi! Friends with Bella and Selena. Shares a plastic surgeon with Bella and looks just like her (now). Seriously, do a before and after photo search on Simi & Haze, it’s nuts! People go on about Bella’s plastic surgery; but those girls basically got face transplants. Abel is so messy! And he certainly has a type. And he dates these wealthy heiresses with lots of work and then goes on about plastic surgery and materialism… Dude, what a mess. I really really hope that Angie didn’t hook up with him, and that if she did it was only a fling, and that she’s not hurt or offended by these gross lyrics. Also, why doesn’t he get dragged by the press and public for these ‘guess who’ songs about his exes the way Tay Tay has been for years? I’m sensing a double standard here.
Ugh this is so gross. She could/can do better than this misogynist.
Also why is no one talking about that “aged” photo and how utterly ridiculous it is .. talk about cringe!
Talk about gross. This reminds me of Danny B. giving me the thumbs up and the “Aaaay” of the Fonz in first grade, then jumping on me in the coat room. Cootie spray is necessary. Or, an epsom salt bath and some sage. Ew.
He looks like King Lear in that photo, which is interesting.
That’s all I got.
Still hoping it’s all PR. I didn’t like this match up from the first rumors. She needs someone on the level of Idris, not the weekend. These lyrics just prove it if it is about her.
This is…gross.
Angelina, for all her wild-girl past, has evolved into a classy person who seems to prefer maintaining her intimate privacy (especially now that she has older children). I can’t imagine she’d be exactly swooning over dude
braggingsinging about how he banged her into feeling like a screamer of a real woman after being loveless and without the favour of a man’s touch for oh, so long.This is just yuck. If they DID hook up, then this is the verbal version of a sex-tape that he’s hosting global premieres for.
His lyrics are always so gross and misogynistic, these are no exception. If she approved them, gross. If she didn’t, double gross.
Lyric video taken down now apparently
I think taken down means that she didn’t approve.
