Multi-diamond and platinum-certified artist Julia Michaels has launched into 2025 with a dynamic new single, “Scissors,” featuring internationally acclaimed singer-songwriter Maren Morris.
The track, inspired by “shitty ex-boyfriends and stupid boys,” showcases the duo’s signature sass and marks their second collaboration following the 2024 release “Cut!”
The official music video for “Scissors” premiered today, making its broadcast debut on MTV Live, MTVU, MTV Biggest Pop, and on the Paramount Times Square billboards in New York City.
Directed by Blythe Thomas, the playful video serves as a tantalizing follow-up to Michaels’ critically lauded “Heaven II,” officially marking the beginning of a new era as an independent artist.
Julia Michaels has significantly reshaped the pop landscape with her razor-sharp perspective on love, loss, and the wide spectrum of the human experience.
Her songwriting prowess is evident in hit singles by artists like Dua Lipa, Ed Sheeran, Justin Bieber, Selena Gomez, Niall Horan, Janelle Monáe, Shawn Mendes, P!NK, Britney Spears, Gwen Stefani, Hailee Steinfeld, The Chicks, Keith Urban, and Jessie Ware.
With over 13 billion combined streams as a primary artist, 60 billion credited streams, 18 RIAA Diamond and 194 Platinum Accreditations, 40 billion combined video views, and five GRAMMY® nominations, Michaels continues to own her mastery, experience, and genuine talent with her own body of work, uncensored and unapologetically so.
Maren Morris, known for her powerful vocals and genre-blending style, has also made significant strides in her career.
In 2024, she released the EP “Intermission,” which includes the single “Cut!” featuring Julia Michaels. This project marked a departure from her country roots, reflecting her emotional journey and exploring themes such as heartbreak and self-discovery.
Morris has been an advocate for making the country genre more equitable and has spoken out on various social issues, using her platform to promote inclusivity and change.
The collaboration between Michaels and Morris in “Scissors” is a testament to their individual artistry and their ability to create music that resonates with a wide audience.
As both artists continue to evolve and push boundaries, fans can look forward to more innovative and impactful music in the future.
