J-Hope uploaded his very first Instagram Reel to give fans a backstage look at the making of his fiery new “Arson” music video.

The BTS rapper, who just released the solo studio album Jack in the Box while the group is on a temporary break, sat down to chat about the music video concept and share a glimpse at its impressive set and special effects.

“Many things are being set on fire, leaving ashes behind,” J-Hope said of the artistic vision behind the song’s visual.

“The theme is visualized starting with this outfit,” he noted. “Overall, I plan to capture the message of this song with this music video.”

“Since I was young, I’ve been working with sparks of passion. And I thought these sparks are the right material for it. That’s why I chose fire,” explained J-Hope.

In the clip — which has had more than 34 million views — he then turned the conversation to his new album as a whole.

J-Hope said, “I put a lot of effort into this album. I tried to show my true colors in it. I tried a lot of new things as well. While you’re listening to my album, I hope you see this new side of J-Hope and enjoy it.”

The song, which just arrived via Big Hit Music with the album’s release this week, was preceded by lead single “MORE” on July 1.

Jennifer Lopez — aka Jennifer Affleck, as of this weekend — penned a long letter to fans that highlighted all the sweet, personal details about her wedding to Ben Affleck.

The couple were previously engaged all the way back in 2002. They rekindled their romance many years later in 2021, got engaged again this year and were married in a Las Vegas wedding ceremony Saturday night (July 16).

Lopez confirmed their nuptials and opened up about the romantic, special moment that was a long time coming in a letter to fans subscribed to her “On the JLo” newsletter, just a day after getting married.

She signed the letter with the name “Jennifer Lynn Affleck.” The new Mrs. Affleck also shared a charming “wedding edition” camera roll of selfies and snapshots documenting the day they got married.

We did it. Love is beautiful. Love is kind. And it turns out love is patient. Twenty years patient.

Exactly what we wanted. Last night we flew to Vegas, stood in line for a license with four other couples, all making the same journey to the wedding capital of the world. Behind us two men held hands and held each other. In front of us, a young couple who made the three hour drive from Victorville on their daughter’s second birthday—all of us wanting the same thing— for the world to recognize us as partners and to declare our love to the world through the ancient and nearly universal symbol of marriage.

We barely made it to the little white wedding chapel by midnight. They graciously stayed open late a few minutes, let us take pictures in a pink Cadillac convertible, evidently once used by the king himself (but if we wanted Elvis himself to show, that cost extra and he was in bed).

So with the best witnesses you could ever imagine, a dress from an old movie and a jacket from Ben’s closet, we read our own vows in the little chapel and gave one another the rings we’ll wear for the rest of our lives. They even had Bluetooth for a (short) march down the aisle. But in the end it was the best possible wedding we could have imagined. One we dreamed of long ago and one made real (in the eyes of the state, Las Vegas, a pink convertible and one another) at very, very long last.

When love is real, the only thing that matters in marriage is one another and the promise we make to love, care, understand, be patient, loving and good to one another. We had that. And so much more. Best night of our lives. Thank you to the Little White Wedding chapel for letting me use the break room to change while Ben changed in the men’s room.

They were right when they said, “all you need is love”. We are so grateful to have that in abundance, a new wonderful family of five amazing children and a life that we have never had more reason to look forward to. Stick around long enough and maybe you’ll find the best moment of your life in a drive through in Las Vegas at twelve thirty in the morning in the tunnel of love drive through, with your kids and the one you’ll spend forever with. Love is a great thing, maybe the best of things-and worth waiting for.

With love,
Mrs. Jennifer Lynn Affleck

Bad Bunny’s Un Verano Sin Ti holds steady atop the Billboard 200 albums chart (dated July 23) for a fifth nonconsecutive week. The set earned 105,000 equivalent album units in the U.S. in the week ending July 14 (down 5%), according to Luminate.

Also in the top 10, Brent Faiyaz’s Wasteland and Aespa’s Girls: The 2nd Mini Album arrive at Nos. 2 and 3, respectively.

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 23, 2022-dated chart will be posted in full on Billboard‘s website on Tuesday, July 19. For all chart news, follow @billboard and @billboardcharts on both Twitter and Instagram.

Of Un Verano Sin Ti’s 105,000 equivalent album units earned, SEA units comprise 104,000 (down 5%; equaling 146.83 million on-demand official streams of the set’s tracks) and album sales and TEA units comprise the remainder of the week’s total.

Un Verano Sin Ti has earned over 100,000 units in each of its first 10 weeks on the chart. The last album to do so was six years ago, when Drake’s Views saw its first 10 weeks all exceed 100,000 units (May 21-July 23, 2016 charts).

Additionally, Un Verano Sin Ti has spent its first 10 weeks on the chart in the top two. The last album to start off as strong was Morgan Wallen’s Dangerous: The Double Album, which spent its first 10 weeks at No. 1 (Jan. 23-March 27, 2021-dated charts).

Un Verano Sin Ti debuted at No. 1 on the May 21-dated chart, then stepped away from the top slot for three weeks. It returned to No. 1 on June 18, and then moved aside for two more weeks, until coming back to No. 1 for the last three consecutive weeks.

Since the start of 2021, six albums have spent at least five weeks at No. 1, including Un Verano Sin Ti. Earlier in 2022, the Encanto soundtrack notched nine weeks atop the list, while Adele’s 30 wrapped a six-week run at No. 1. In 2021, Drake’s Certified Lover Boy and Olivia Rodrigo’s Sour both clocked five weeks at No. 1, while Morgan Wallen’s Dangerous ruled for 10 weeks.

Brent Faiyaz’s sophomore album Wasteland debuts at No. 2 on the Billboard 200, launching with 88,000 equivalent album units earned. Of that sum, SEA units comprise 81,000 (equaling 107.48 million on-demand official streams of the set’s tracks), album sales comprise 6,000 and TEA units comprise a negligible sum. It’s the first top 10 for the R&B singer, who previously reached the chart with his debut effort, F— the World, debuting and peaking at No. 20 in 2020 and at No. 2 on the Top R&B Albums chart. That 10-track set has earned 684,000 units in the U.S. release-to-date (with on-demand official streams of the set’s tracks totaling 935.81 million).

Since the release of F— the World, Faiyaz has issued collaborative tracks with Tyler, the Creator (“Gravity” and “Sweet/I Thought You Wanted to Dance”) and Drake (“Wasting Time”). Both “Gravity” and “Wasting Time” are included on the new album, alongside a new collaboration with Alicia Keys (“Ghetto Gatsby”).

Aespa’s Girls: The 2nd Mini Album bows at No. 3 on the Billboard 200, giving the South Korean female quartet its first top 10 effort. The set starts with 56,000 equivalent album units earned, of which album sales comprise 53,000 (making it the top-selling album of the week), SEA units comprise 3,000 (equaling 4.34 million on-demand official streams of the set’s tracks) and TEA units comprise less than 1,000.

Like many K-pop releases, the CD configuration of Girls was issued in collectible deluxe packages (12 total, including an exclusive edition for Target), each with a standard set of items and randomized elements (such as photocards, stickers and a poster); 98% of the album’s first-week sales were on CD. The other 2% were digital album sales. (The set was not released in any other format, such as vinyl or cassette.)

A quintet of former No. 1s are next up on the Billboard 200 at Nos. 4-8. Harry Styles’ Harry’s House falls 2-4 (53,000 equivalent album units; down 3%), Wallen’s Dangerous dips 4-5 (49,000; down 2%), Drake’s Honestly, Nevermind drops 3-6 (42,000; down 19%), Future’s I Never Liked You is a non-mover at No. 7 (37,000; down 8%) and Lil Durk’s 7220 falls 6-8 (35,000; down 16%).

The Weeknd’s compilation The Highlights is stationary at No. 9 with nearly 35,000 equivalent album units earned (up 3%), while Chris Brown’s Breezy falls 8-10 with 33,000 units (down 6%).
