Madison Beer is ramping up excitement as the release of her highly anticipated album, “Locket,” approaches. Scheduled to drop on January 16, Beer recently shared a behind-the-scenes glimpse on her Instagram, featuring herself wrapped in a white towel coupled with a countdown to the album’s release. The simple yet effective post serves as a clear signal to fans that the date is fast approaching.
In an interview with Vogue, Beer elaborated on her choice of the title “Locket,” explaining its personal significance. She indicated that she drew inspiration from her tendency to capture meaningful moments on her camera roll, leading her to reflect on things she holds dear. “I really love vintage stuff, I love antiques. I feel like lockets are very delicate and beautiful, and feminine, and they hold important things, and memories, and people, and places,” she shared, emphasizing that she chose the name before the album was largely written.
As the countdown continues, Beer has been making waves not just with her music but also in her public life. Recently, she attended a Los Angeles Chargers game against the Houston Texans on December 27, where she was spotted in the stands and even posed for pictures with fans. The Chargers lost 20-16, which tightened their position in the AFC playoff race, showcasing the mix of fandom and personal life she is currently navigating.
Her relationship with Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert has also become a more public affair, with the two confirming their dating status in October after being seen together at games. They first sparked dating rumors back in August, with their affection becoming increasingly evident as they support each other’s endeavors.
Amidst this excitement, Beer has addressed the challenges of dealing with public scrutiny and online negativity, especially given her own struggles with mental health. In a recent Q&A, she opened up about how her personal well-being can impact her resilience against online hate, reflecting a level of maturity and self-awareness.
As the January release date approaches, Madison Beer stands at a crossroads of musical anticipation and public life, ready to take full control of her narrative and share her art with the world.
