Friday Music Guide: New Music From Lorde, Alex Warren & ROSÉ, KATSEYE and More
With plenty of new tunes to stream this weekend, music fans ultimately decided Beautiful Chaos was their top pick, selecting it over new releases from Alex Warren and ROSÉ, Lorde, aespa, Barbra Streisand, Don Toliver, Lizzo and Blood Orange. KATSEYE’s release brought in an overwhelming 50% of the vote.
It’s a two-week winning streak for KATSEYE — Daniela, Lara, Manon, Megan, Sophia and Yoonchae — on Billboard‘s weekly poll. New last week was the six-piece act’s single “Gabriela,” which arrived just before the group’s full EP and ruled listeners’ new music ranking upon release: 43% of voters made it their top pick, according to results published on June 22.
Beautiful Chaos was led by hyperpop single “Gnarly,” the group’s breakthrough that had them charting on the Billboard Hot 100 for the first time. The track list is rounded out by “Gabriela” (which was accompanied by a telenovela-inspired music video starring Jessica Alba), plus new songs “Gamesboy,” “Mean Girls” and “M.I.A.”
Among the new releases trailing behind Beautiful Chaos on this week’s poll are Alex Warren and ROSÉ’s collab “On My Mind,” with 25% of the vote; Lorde’s Virgin album, with 10% of the vote, and aespa’s “Dirty Work,” with close to 3% of the vote.

Olivia Rodrigo, Turnstile & Wolf Alice: The Best Moments From Glastonbury 2025 Day 3
The “Vampire” singer was headlining the festival for the first time, having made her debut performance at the festival in 2022 on the Other Stage where she was joined by Lily Allen. On Sunday she headlined the larger Pyramid Stage, following sets on the previous nights from The 1975 and Neil Young.
Midway through her set she addressed the crowd to introduce what she described as “perhaps the best songwriter to come out of England and a personal hero. I f—ing love England and its bands like The Cure that made me fall in love with England.”
Smith, clad in a sequinned hoodie, joined her on stage to perform two iconic songs from The Cure’s back catalogue — 1992’s “Friday I’m In Love” and 1987’s “Just Like Heaven” — to a rapturous reaction from the crowd. Watch the performance here.
The Cure have headlined the festival in previous years, most recently in 2019.
Rodrigo’s 90-minute set came on the festival’s final night and saw her run through her hits for a packed crowd. She split the set evenly between 2021 debut Sour and 2023’s Guts, with “Get Him Back!”, “Brutal,” “Drivers License” and more all garnering strong responses.

As a heatwave continued to pass over Worthy Farm, Somerset, there was barely a cloud in the sky as it reached the third full day of music at Glastonbury 2025.
Over 200,000 punters roamed around the sun-dappled site as hundreds of acts closed out this year’s festival in style. Having been spotted in the crowd for Pulp‘s show-stopping surprise set on Saturday, Olivia Rodrigo took to the Pyramid Stage with wit and moxie, putting on a headline show for the ages.

The likes of Wolf Alice and Turnstile also delivered gigantically powerful sets, bringing their equally ferocious approaches to the Other Stage and waking up Sunday crowds very much in need of a pick-me-up. Elsewhere, next-gen stars Westside Cowboy stepped up to the task of opening up Woodsies with their giddy indie tracks, while Parcels kept the energy flowing further out at West Holts.

Dua Lipa wrapped the European leg of her Radical Optimism Tour in Dublin over the weekend, adding a special cover song to her set list in tribute to one of Ireland’s greats, Sinead O’Connor.
Performing at the end of her stage that extends out into the crowd, Dua Lipa introduced “Nothing Compares 2 U” to fans at Aviva Stadium Friday night (June 27). In fan-filmed footage from the concert, she can be heard saying she was honored to sing the song that night, and told the crowd to join if they knew the words.

9 Best Moments From Dua Lipa’s Crowning Moment at London’s Wembley Stadium
O’Connor, whose hometown was Dublin, passed away in 2023. Her stunning 1990 version of “Nothing Compares 2 U’ — written by Prince, who originally released the song in 1985 — ruled the Billboard Hot 100 chart for four weeks and launched her I Do Not Want What I Haven’t Got album to No. 1 on the Billboard 200 that year.
Dua Lipa’s emotional set list surprise in Dublin followed a pair of surprise guests last week in London, where the singer welcomed Jamiroquai to the stage one night (for “Virtual Insanity”), and Charli xcx the next (for “360”). She also felt the love from the Spice Girls while in the U.K. — the girl group wished her luck at her sold-out Wembley Stadium shows, noting, “That’s Girl Power!!”
The pop star’s tour arrives in North America at the start of September, beginning with two nights in Toronto before traveling to Chicago, Boston, Atlanta, New York City and beyond.

Oh, those summer nights. It’s been 47 years since the release of Grease, the 1978 movie musical starring Olivia Newton-John as Sandy and John Travolta as Danny, and its blockbuster soundtrack that reached No. 1 on the Billboard 200 and notched four top-five hits on the Billboard Hot 100. On Friday night (June 27), the movie-star version of Danny Zuko, Travolta himself, reemerged at the Hollywood Bowl.

Travolta — who was in his early 20s during his time at Rydell High on the Grease film set, and is now 71 — made an unannounced appearance Friday at the Hollywood Bowl’s summer Grease Sing-A-Long event, all dressed up as Danny.
The actor captured his leather jacket and slicked-back hair throwback for fans, sharing the moment later on Instagram.
“Tonight at the Hollywood Bowl, for the first time I surprised everyone at the GREASE Sing-A-Long and dressed up as Danny Zuko. No one knew. Not even the cast,” Travolta revealed in his post.
“Thank you for a great evening,” he added, directing followers to swipe to watch a video filmed during his visit to the June 27 get-together for Grease fans, which had encouraged attendees to show up in costume and was advertised as an evening “where you are the stars and Grease is truly the word! Watch Danny, Sandy, and the gang while singing and dancing along to the lyrics as shown on the screen.”
Little did they know that the OG leader of the Rydell High T-Birds would be rockin’ and rollin’ and whatnot amongst them.
“A-wop-bop-a-loo-bop, a-wop-bam-boom!” he led the crowd with glee.

The album debuted at No. 1 on the chart dated May 31 and has yet to cede the top slot.
With 177,000 units earned, Problem nets the largest total for an album in its sixth week on the chart since Adele’s 25 earned 363,000 in its sixth week (Jan. 16, 2016-dated chart).

Also in the top 10 of the latest Billboard 200, Benson Boone lands his highest-charting album and biggest week by units earned as his new album American Heart debuts at No. 2 with 61,000 equivalent album units earned. Karol G notches her third top 10-charting album with the No. 3 arrival of Tropicoqueta, and the KPop Demon Hunters soundtrack enters at No. 8. The latter marks the first soundtrack released in 2025 to reach the top 10, and the highest-debuting soundtrack of the year.
The Billboard 200 chart ranks the most popular albums of the week in the U.S. based on multi-metric consumption as measured in equivalent album units, compiled by Luminate. Units comprise album sales, track equivalent albums (TEA) and streaming equivalent albums (SEA). Each unit equals one album sale, or 10 individual tracks sold from an album, or 3,750 ad-supported or 1,250 paid/subscription on-demand official audio and video streams generated by songs from an album. The new July 5, 2025-dated chart will be posted in full on Billboard‘s website on July 1. For all chart news, follow @billboard and @billboardcharts on both X, formerly known as Twitter, and Instagram.
Of I’m the Problem’s 177,000 equivalent album units earned in the week ending June 19, SEA units comprise 168,500 (down 4%, equaling 220.51 million on-demand official streams of the set’s songs — it leads Top Streaming Albums for a sixth week), album sales comprise 7,500 (down 19% — it holds at No. 7 on Top Album Sales) and TEA units comprise 1,000 (up 3%).
Benson Boone bounds in at No. 2 with his sophomore full-length studio album, American Heart, earning 61,000 equivalent album units in its first week. It’s the singer-songwriter’s second top 10, highest-charting set and biggest week ever by units earned. His previous biggest week, in both metrics, came when his last album, Fireworks & Rollerblades, skated in at No. 6 with 58,000 units earned (April 20, 2024-dated chart).
Of the 61,000 equivalent album units earned by American Heart, SEA units comprise just over 30,000 (equaling 40.29 million on-demand official streams of the set’s songs — it debuts at No. 5 on Top Streaming Albums), album sales comprise nearly 30,000 (it debuts at No. 1 on Top Album Sales; it’s Boone’s largest sales week) and TEA units comprise 1,000.
American Heart was released as a 10-song standard album and was available via streaming services and to purchase as a widely available digital download, CD, deluxe CD boxed set with a T-shirt (sold via Boone’s webstore), two cassette variants and seven vinyl variants.
The new album was preceded by a pair of top 30-charting hits on the Billboard Hot 100 songs chart: “Sorry I’m Here for Someone Else” and “Mystical Magical.” The cuts had climbed to new peaks on the most recently published Hot 100 (dated June 28), bumping 31-27 and 30-28, respectively. Meanwhile, Boone’s breakout hit “Beautiful Things,” from Fireworks& Rollerblades, continues to chart highly — it ranked at No. 10 on the June 28 Hot 100. Aside from one week during the holidays, the track, which peaked at No. 2 in March 2024, has not left the weekly top 40 since it debuted more than a year ago, on the Feb. 3, 2024-dated chart.
In the lead-up to the release of American Heart, Boone was a guest on NBC’s The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon (June 4), performed on CBS’ American Music Awards (May 26) and made his debut on NBC’s Saturday Night Live (May 3). Boone’s American Heart North American arena tour kicks off on Aug. 22. Before that, he’ll play a series of festival dates in America and beyond during July.
Karol G notches her third top 10-charting set on the Billboard 200 as Tropicoqueta debuts at No. 3 with 57,000 equivalent album units earned. It follows her two top 10s achieved in 2023: MAÑANA SERÁ BONITO (BICHOTA SEASON) (No. 3 that August) and MAÑANA SERÁ BONITO (No. 1 for one week, March).
Of the new release’s 57,000 units earned, SEA units comprise 54,500 (equaling 74.64 million on-demand official streams of the set’s 20 songs — it debuts at No. 2 on Top Streaming Albums), album sales comprise 2,000 and TEA units comprise about 500.
The album was announced on June 9 and arrived via streaming services and as a digital download for purchase on June 20. The set was preceded by the Hot Latin Songs-charting hits “Si Antes Te Hubiera Conocido” (No. 1 for 14 weeks in 2024 — Karol G’s longest run at No. 1) and “Latina Foreva” (No. 3 debut and peak on the June 7, 2025, chart). They reached Nos. 32 and 74, respectively, on the all-genre Hot 100.
Four former No. 1s are next up on the latest Billboard 200, as SZA’s SOS holds at No. 4 (47,000 equivalent album units earned; down 1%), Wallen’s One Thing at a Time is steady at No. 5 (37,000; down 7%), Sabrina Carpenter’s Short n’ Sweet is a non-mover at No. 6 (35,000; down 12%) and Kendrick Lamar’s GNX rises 8-7 (31,000; down 8%).
The soundtrack to the Netflix animated film KPop Demon Hunters debuts at No. 8 with 31,000 equivalent album units earned. It’s the highest-debuting soundtrack of 2025 and the first to bow in the top 10 this year. Of the set’s starting sum, SEA units comprise 27,000 (equaling 37.48 million on-demand official streams of the set’s tracks — it debuts at No. 10 on Top Streaming Albums), album sales comprise 3,000 (it debuts at No. 18 on Top Album Sales; it was only available to purchase as a standard download album) and TEA units comprise 1,000.
The last soundtrack to debut in the top 10 was the Wicked film soundtrack on the Dec. 7, 2024-dated chart, at No. 2. The Wicked soundtrack went on to spend eight weeks in the top 10, with four of those on 2025-dated charts (in January). Until this week, Wicked was the only soundtrack to spend time in the top 10 of the Billboard 200 in 2025.
KPop Demon Hunters premiered on June 20 on Netflix alongside its soundtrack. In the tracking week ending June 22, KPop Demon Hunters debuted at No. 6 on Netflix’s Top 10 Movies in United States chart.
Closing out the top 10 of the latest Billboard 200, Wallen’s chart-topping Dangerous: The Double Album is steady at No. 9 (30,000 equivalent album units earned; down 5%) and PARTYNEXTDOOR and Drake’s former leader $ome $exy $ongs 4 U is stationary at No. 10 (29,000; down 6%).

Beyoncé was flying high over a hometown crowd in Houston, Texas, when her vehicle — an airborne car, a tour prop rigged up for her Cowboy Carter run — visibly started to tilt to the side during her performance of “16 Carriages” Saturday night (June 28) at NRG Stadium.

Sitting in the red car suspended in the air, Beyoncé held on and kept singing the Cowboy Carter ballad up until the end of a chorus, when she was heard on the mic directing her crew to “stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop.” The song came to a temporarily halt, and fan concern over the car’s tilt — which looked quite alarming from certain angles in the stadium — could be heard in video footage uploaded by concertgoers.
In fan-captured clips, she maintained a calm expression and put on a smile while waiting for the car to descend.
“If ever I fall, I know ya’ll catch me,” she quipped to the audience upon her return to having two feet on the ground, on stage.
“Ain’t got time to waste, I got art to make/ I got love to create on this holy night/ They won’t dim my light, all these years I fight,” she sang in her return to the song.
Beyoncé’s Parkwood Entertainment released a statement about the incident post-show.
“Tonight in Houston, at NRG Stadium, a technical mishap caused the flying car, a prop Beyonce uses to circle the stadium, and see her fans up close, to tilt. She was quickly lowered and no one was injured. The show continued without incident,” Parkwood stated in an Instagram Story posted early Sunday morning.
The show, which runs for roughly three hours, kicked off in late April and is currently set to wrap by the end of July. She’ll perform at Houston’s NRG Stadium again Sunday night.

Saturday night at Glastonbury (June 28) offered up a pretty shocking clash across some of its main stages. While Neil Young noodled away on the Pyramid, the rest of the crowd had a tricky choice to make between Charli xcx on the Other Stage, Scissor Sisters on Woodsies, and Doechii on West Holts.

Charli xcx, Doechii & Kneecap: The Best Moments From Glastonbury 2025 Day 2
Fancy a sweaty rave with the hottest name on the planet? That’s Charli for you. Perhaps a big glitzy sing-along? Scissor Sisters, of course. Doechii, however, was a more than worthy option for many punters on the sprawling site. During her set, the “Anxiety” star served up something truly unique in her theatrical 45-minute set, which featured singing, dancing, rapping and her inimitable performing talents.
The triumph was made all the more impressive knowing that Doechii had never performed at the festival before, and landed a well-deserved Saturday night headline slot on one of the biggest stages. Given her superb year – including being crowned Billboard’s Woman of the Year – where else could the Grammy winner land other than with top billing? What usually takes years (or even decades) to achieve was done on the first attempt, leapfrogging the competition to stake her claim to being a modern great.
These were the best moments from Doechii’s West Holts headline set.

How to bring Charli xcx’s one-woman show – a triumph of emotive pop hedonism and discomfiting intimacy – to a sprawling, city-sized Worthy Farm? It was never going to be an easy task.
Yet there have been few sets at this year’s Glastonbury Festival more anticipated than Charli’s Saturday night Other Stage headline slot. The slime-green tinge of Brat Summer has remained bright and potent in all corners of pop culture since the 32-year-old released her sixth studio album last summer, elevating her from cult starlet to five BRIT wins and sold-out arenas on both sides of the Atlantic – an impossibly huge feat, given how idiosyncratic and debauched her vision of pop is.

Charli xcx, Doechii & Kneecap: The Best Moments From Glastonbury 2025 Day 2
Saturday’s billing is even more impressive when you remember that, only three years ago, the Essex-raised singer seemed disillusioned with her career; ill-at-ease with the major label system machine and stung by mixed opinions on 2022’s slick (and safe) Crash – a record she has since admitted that she is unable to listen to in full. She continued to climb to her feet after being knocked down, however; she now possesses the powerful air of a victorious underdog.
More than 60,000 fans showed up in their sequined droves to this milestone-making moment for Charli, with Glastonbury organizers having upped capacity at the Other Stage this year to avoid overcrowding. Wearing a black leather two-piece and an Alexander McQueen scarf, the set immediately plunged into the club-focused physicality of Brat, with an overdubbing of bass resulting in a genuinely thrilling racket – as visceral and propulsive as a warehouse rave.
With no special guest appearances (Lorde, where art thou?), Charli performed this confidently minimalist show entirely solo, with a set consisting merely of a series of alternating white stage lights. But the power of this blank production canvas is that it lets audience members project their own lives and stories onto the music.
Here are the five best moments from Charli’s Other Stage headline slot.

Glastonbury Festival has issued a statement saying that one of the performing acts “crossed a line” during their set by leading anti-IDF chants.
Punk duo Bob Vylan appeared on Saturday (June 28) before Kneecap on the West Holts stage. During their set, they instigated chants of “Free Palestine” and “Death to the IDF,” in reference to the Israel Defense Forces, and displayed messages criticising the BBC, the festival’s official media partner.

Kneecap Play Fiery Glastonbury Set, Take Aim at U.K. Prime Minister: ‘F— Keir Starmer…
In the week leading up to the festival, campaigners had called for Kneecap’s set to be canceled, owing to the terror offense MC Mo Chara was recently charged with. A number of acts threw their weight behind the group leading up the festival, including Fontaines D.C. and Massive Attack.
Kneecap’s set was not televised on the iPlayer stream, but Bob Vylan’s performance was broadcast live. The BBC reports that Somerset and Avon Police are assessing the chants by Vylan. A BBCspokesperson told The Independent that “some of the comments made during Bob Vylan’s set were deeply offensive. During this live stream on iPlayer, which reflected what was happening on stage, a warning was issued on screen about the very strong and discriminatory language. We have no plans to make the performance available on demand.”
The festival has also shared an official response to the chants led by Vylan, saying it is “appalled” by his comments.
“Glastonbury Festival was created in 1970 as a place for people to come together and rejoice in music, the arts and the best of human endeavour. As a festival, we stand against all forms of war and terrorism. We will always believe in – and actively campaign for – hope, unity, peace and love,” the statement read.
“With almost 4,000 performances at Glastonbury 2025, there will inevitably be artists and speakers appearing on our stages whose views we do not share, and a performer’s presence here should never be seen as a tacit endorsement of their opinions and beliefs.
“However, we are appalled by the statements made from the West Holts stage by Bob Vylan yesterday. Their chants very much crossed a line and we are urgently reminding everyone involved in the production of the Festival that there is no place at Glastonbury for antisemitism, hate speech or incitement to violence.”
Wes Streeting, the government’s health secretary, said that the “BBC and Glastonbury have got questions to answer about how we saw such a spectacle on our screens,” he told Sunday Morning with Trevor Phillips on Sky News. “But I also think it’s a pretty shameless publicity stunt, which I don’t really want to give too much indulgence to for that reason.”
During Kneecap’s set, the trio led a “F— Keir Starmer chant,” after the U.K. prime minister said it was “not appropriate” to be playing the festival amidst Mo Chara’s ongoing terror case. Read the full report from the show here. The festival concludes Sunday evening (June 29) with a headline set from Olivia Rodrigo.
