PinkPantheress, 21 and our cover star, meets Tracy Beaker author Jacqueline Wilson, 74 and a legend in children’s books. Yes, we can’t quite believe it either.

The first great TikTok artist has arrived. Building an army of devoted fans while maintaining mystique in an age of constant sharing, PinkPantheress draws on the past to create a sound that might just be the future.
