Ed Sheeran‘s Loop Tour is continuing on, with or without his opening acts, and now it appears the singer will be without a sold-out date as well. Sheeran’s tour kicked off in June in Glendale, Arizona, and has made stops across the U.S. and Canada. There are currently nine dates remaining, with the tour wrapping stateside on Nov. 7 in Tampa, Florida. But controversy erupted days ago when Robert Kraft, owner of the New England Patriots and their…

Drake’s promotion of Fear Of Missing Out (FOMO) four months after unleashing three albums left many wondering whether a fourth LP was on the horizon. The Tuesday evening (Sept. 15) live premiere didn’t exactly answer that question, but, unsurprisingly, the 6 God previewed new music and delivered videos for records from HABIBTI and MAID OF HONOUR that were not included in ICEMAN Episode 4. Although Drake clarified that it would be a “not-so-short film,” FOMO was a buffet-style, hour-long visual loaded with the Toronto superstar’s daily grooming routines, pickleball, summer travels, partying, silliness, luxurious flexes, nostalgic callbacks, and more. Though…

For the two nights he made it through as an opener on Ed Sheeran‘s Loop tour, Macklemore used his position in front of an audience of thousands to advocate for Palestinians living in Gaza, where the death toll has surpassed 73,000 as Israeli military operations continue despite an alleged ceasefire, according to the Associated Press. The rapper’s “Free Palestine” call led to his removal from the tour, a decision ultimately made by the venue owners who opposed his statements. While he no longer has the platform afforded to him by stadium stages, Macklemore has found support in fellow artists, activists,…

Getting Taylor Hanson to smile should be easy. The Hanson frontman has spent nearly three decades projecting an easygoing, upbeat presence. But right now, in a spacious rehearsal room with scratched-up wood floors, an exposed ceiling, and smudgy mirrors running the length of one wall, he’s concentrating on his first dance for the new season of Dancing With the Stars, which is only two days away. His partner, six-time DWTS competitor Britt Stewart, speaks to him quietly, offering gentle direction and making tiny posture adjustments that instantly sharpen his moves. They run through the quickstep routine a couple of times…

The scene outside the federal courthouse in Los Angeles looked like a Super Bowl victory. Following Lil Durk’s murder-for-hire acquittal, fans and streamers rejoiced alongside the rapper’s family. Drew Findling, one of Durk’s attorneys, gave a fiery speech recalling his Trumpian pretrial prediction that they would “make history with the greatest verdict,” while another, Brian Steel, left the building to chants of “MVP.”This kind of spectacle had been taking place since the start of the trial. For three weeks, dozens of protestors, streamers, and fans congregated outside like they were at a concert or Streamer University audition instead of a…

Massive Attack took aim at Ed Sheeran in an impassioned statement shared following the removal of Macklemore from the singer-songwriter’s tour. The rapper was dropped from the run after his statements in support of Palestinians living in Gaza pushed some venue owners to bar him from performing on their stages, putting the tour at risk. “No artist should tolerate the censorship of another artist, however many millions of dollars are in play,” Massive Attack said on Instagram. “We stand in solidarity with all artists risking their careers in defence of the rights of the Palestinian people, & against the illegal…

Combs sued Nexstar Media, lawyer Ariel Mitchell and her client Courtney Burgess over 2024 allegations made on the NewsNation show “Banfield” that claimed Combs mixed drugs with baby oil.…
