Ludwig Göransson and EJAE were the leading winners at the 7th annual Society of Composers and Lyricists (SCL) Awards, while the Milan Cortina 2026 Winter Olympics opening ceremony, which was held on Friday, offered a moment of levity and spectacle. The awards ceremony saw Göransson take home two SCL Awards for his score for "Sinners" and the original song "I Lied to You," co-written with Raphael Saadiq, according to Variety.
The Milan Cortina Olympics opening ceremony, which was "painfully long, inevitably uneven, excessively dance-obsessed but also somehow lovable," according to Time, featured a tribute to the classic Italian cinema film "La Dolce Vita." The ceremony provided a welcome change after a series of Olympics that faced various challenges, including freezing temperatures in South Korea in 2018, a fanless event in Tokyo in 2021 due to COVID, and the soulless Beijing games in 2022, according to Time.
The "All-American Halftime Show," hosted by Turning Point USA, will feature country music artists, including headliner Kid Rock, Brantley Gilbert, Lee Brice, and Gabby Barrett, according to Fox News and Variety. Gilbert, a songwriter and recovering addict, shared his personal story, aiming to inspire others through his music, according to Fox News.
The SCL Awards recognized excellence in music composition for visual media. EJAE, a singer and songwriter, also received an award. The awards ceremony highlighted the achievements of composers and lyricists in the film and television industries.
