Bowen Yang had fans rolling when he played the iceberg who sunk the Titanic during “Weekend Update” on Saturday Night Live.

Saying he stopped by for an interview to promote his new album, Yang’s iceberg said he did not want to talk about the sinking of the historic ship, which occurred April 14, 1912.

“That was a really long time ago. I’ve done a lot of reflecting to try and move past it,” he said to big laughs. “It’s one very small part me, but there’s so much going on beneath the surface that you can’t see.”

Yang’s iceberg snapped at Colin Jost’s line of questions about the Titanic with, “I think my publicist was very clear: I’m not here to talk about the sinking,” before getting into the details of the incident from his point of view.

“First of all, you came to where I live and you hit me! It was midnight. I was chilling. And then I hear this Irish cacophony behind me,” he explained. “And before I turn around and go, like, ‘What?’ Half my ass is gone, which was my best feature. And I’m literally injured but all anybody cares about is that like 40 or 50 people died or whatever.”

Yang was trending on Twitter Sunday morning for the hilarious bit and a tweet from the show with the segment had more than 25,000 likes alone.

Yang — SNL’s first Asian American cast member — has quickly become a fan favorite with his impressions, such as Fran Lebowitz, and also for recently speaking his mind about the increase of anti-Asian assaults and harassment during the pandemic.

“Drivers License” hitmaker Olivia Rodrigo has hit another milestone: getting what is likely to be her very first parking ticket.

The young singer-songwriter found herself with a City of Los Angeles parking violation notice and shared that moment with her fans via an Instagram Story on Sunday (April 11).

“damn this driving s— isnt all fun and games,” she quipped in a a captioned for the snapshot.

Earlier this month, it was reported that Rodrigo’s runaway hit single — which spent eight weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 and the Billboard Global 200 charts — had become the first song to surpass 1 billion global streams in 2021, according to figures from MRC Data.

She recently released the new single “Deja Vu,” and her debut studio album is scheduled to arrive on May 21.

Check out her reaction to getting a parking ticket on Instagram.

Lil Nas X enters a second week at No. 1 on the U.K. singles chart with “Montero (Call Me By Your Name)” (Lil Nas X) while Demi Lovato misses out on the albums crown in an agonizingly close race.

“Montero” collects another 62,000 chart sales in the past cycle, including 8.6 million streams, the OCC reports. The U.S. rapper’s controversial song finishes comfortably ahead of the second-placed single, Justin Bieber’s “Peaches” (Def Jam) featuring Daniel Caesar & Giveon, up 3-2 to a new peak.

Also hitting new highs this week is Russ Millions & Tion Wayne’s “Body” (Atlantic), up 21-12; Australian rapper Masked Wolf’s “Astronaut In The Ocean” (Elektra) up 20-18; Bruno Mars and Anderson .Paak’s Silk Sonic’s “Leave The Door Open” (Atlantic), up 23-20; and D-Block Europe & Raye’s “Ferrari Horses,” up 28-22 (D-Block Europe).

The highest debut of the week belongs to Olivia Rodrigo with “Déjà Vu” (Geffen), the followup to her global hit “Drivers License.” It’s new at No. at 27.

Meanwhile, it’s been a memorable battle for the Official U.K. Albums Chart title as The Snuts’ W.L. (Parlophone) edges Demi Lovato’s Dancing With The Devil – The Art Of Starting Over (Island).

Just 272 chart sales separate the top two albums as The Snuts become the first Scottish band in 14 years to lead the U.K. chart with their debut album. The last was The View with 2007’s Hats Off To The Buskers.

Lovato’s No. 2 bow is her highest-charting record in the U.K., eclipsing the No. 5 best for her 2017 set Tell Me You Love Me.

The most-streamed LP this week is Justin Bieber’s Justice (Def Jam), down 2-3; South London post-punk outfit Dry Cleaning start at No. 4 with their debut New Long Leg (4AD); and Dua Lipa’s Future Nostalgia (Warner Brothers) — the U.K.’s biggest album of 2021, according to the OCC — rounds out the Top 5.

Finally, Bronx rapper Lil Tjay has his first Top 10 and a career high with Destined 2 Win (Columbia), his sophomore album. It’s new at No. 7.

Travis Barker wants the world to know his thoughts about Kourtney Kardashian.

The Blink-182 drummer shared exactly what’s on his mind on Instagram over the weekend when he posted a photo of himself with a drumstick flying high in the sky above. The image shows Barker looking up, waiting in anticipation for it to come to him.

“All day I dream about sex w/ you,” he captioned the picture on Saturday (April 10).

In case anyone questioned who the “you” in Barker’s caption was, he tagged Kourtney Kardashian as the drumstick in the photo.

Some left comments that Barker’s caption brought to mind a Korn song (1997’s “A.D.I.D.A.S.”), while others gabbed about how smitten he clearly is with his Kardashian.

The couple have been sharing glimpses into their private world over the past couple months: Barker recently got Kourtney’s name tattooed on his chest, and they’ve been posting their love notes to each other on their Instagram Stories.

The pair went Instagram official in February with a photo of their hands intertwined.

Beyoncé uploaded a series of stylish new photos from a trip to Sin City with Jay-Z.

On Saturday (April 10), the singer’s official website was updated with a number of pictures — many of Beyoncé herself, but some featuring Jay-Z, too. The couple celebrated their 13th wedding anniversary last week, on April 4.

Beyoncé showed off a killer outfit — tweed shorts and a matching blazer with a fit made for her, accessorized with red heels — from all angles, and she shared some plane ride and date pictures in a gallery that was simply labeled “Sin City.”

Over on Instagram later on, Beyoncé mostly posted the same pictures, plus a fun GIF with her husband.

A couple weeks ago, she gave a rare glimpse at some family snapshots, in which she was seen enjoying a carefree beach day with her children in Malibu.

Lana Del Rey is receiving backlash on social media after showing her admiration for the longtime romance between the UK’s Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip.

Following news of Philip’s death on Friday (April 9), the 35-year-old songstress paid tribute to the Duke of Edinburgh by posting several vintage photos of the royal couple, who were married for 73 years.

“I’ve always loved the way they loved,” Del Rey captioned the pictures on Instagram.

In one image, Queen Elizabeth is seen smiling up at Prince Philip, while another shows a black-and-white snapshot of the longtime partners holding two of their young children.

Many of Del Rey’s nearly 19 million Instagram followers took issue with her post, noting that Philip and Elizabeth were distant relatives. “Mmm i love how they were cousins<3,” one person commented. Another wrote, “Bestie they’re related.”

Others begged the singer to remove the post. “Please delete this I can’t keep defending you,” a fan responded, while another suggested, “Step away from the phone BFF.”

Billboard has reached out to Del Rey’s representatives for comment about the post.

In late March, Del Rey released her newest album, Chemtrails Over the Country Club, which debuted at No. 1 on Billboard’s Top Album Sales chart. The set follows 2017’s Lust for Life and 2014’s Ultraviolence. The singer has already teased her next project, Rock Candy Sweet, which is scheduled to arrive on June 1.

Britney Spears went way back in the photo archives to wish her sister, Jamie Lynn, a belated happy birthday.

The pop star opted to share a fun snapshot on Instagram Friday night (April 9) from several years ago that happened to feature the both of them and Justin Timberlake.

In the picture, all eyes are on a young Jamie Lynn, who appears to be entertaining a small crowd of people including big sister Britney with her former boyfriend Timberlake.

“Happy belated birthday to this beautiful soul!!!” Spears wrote in the photo caption to her little sister, who celebrated her birthday on April 4. “I love you so much and damn it I wish I was as smart as you at 30 !!!! It’s weird to say that I was basically your momma when you were younger and yes I’m still older but your soul is and always has been wise !!!!”

She continued: “I’m truly and genuinely inspired by your path and the life you have created for your beautiful children and I’m so f—ing proud to call someone as beautiful inside as you my sister !!!!”

“And not only are you a beautiful soul you’re so DAMN STRONG … I was extremely taken back and still am to this very day !!!” she said, recalling a moment the sisters shared. “We play wrestled at home (such classy Southern chicks) and you put me to the floor in literally two seconds after I gave all my might … I’ll never forget it !!! Maybe we should have a rematch … I mean things have changed since 6 years ago !!!!! PS I wish I was as strong as you and happy birthday !!!!”

Jamie Lynn responded with a collection of cute emojis, while most of the other comments left on the post focused on Timberlake’s unexpected appearance on Spears’ Instagram feed.

In February, Timberlake reached out to Spears via a public apology on social media after the documentary Framing Britney Spears reported how he had portrayed her following their much-publicized split in 2002, when he made jokes about their sex life in interviews and cast a Britney look-alike in his damning “Cry Me a River” music video.

“I am deeply sorry for the times in my life where my actions contributed to the problem, where I spoke out of turn, or did not speak up for what was right,” he wrote in a note on Feb. 12. “I understand that I fell short in these moments and in many others and benefited from a system that condones misogyny and racism. I specifically want to apologize to Britney Spears and Janet Jackson both individually because I care for and respect these women and I know I failed.”

From “Our Song” to “Willow,” one Taylor Swift fan has recreated every one of the star’s iconic eras for a clip that’s racking up views on TikTok.

The video, which has been viewed 3.4 million times and has received almost 1 million likes on TikTok as of Saturday (April 10), was first posted on Friday (April 9), the day Swift released her re-recorded Fearless (Taylor’s Version).

TikTok user @juliiieanne, whose channel features a collection of Swift look-alike videos, seamlessly transitions through moments from each of Swift’s original studio albums in her latest short video, all in less than a minute — and completely in costume, creatively replicating Swift’s hairstyles, makeup looks and outfits.

“What’s your era?” she captioned the clip, which runs through Swift’s self-titled debut album all the way to Evermore.

“How do you look so much like her and also nothing like her at the same time??” one person pondered, while another was not quite convinced she wasn’t actually the real deal: “are u telling me this isn’t taylor swift.”

“you look more and more like her as the video goes on,” another fan pointed out.

“Queen just casually had a marching band costume I love it,” another TikTok creator said of her Fearless-era ensemble.

Watch it below and on Julie’s TikTok. Check out all her other Swift videos here.

BTS’ Bang Bang Con is returning in 2021.

The K-pop band took to social media on Saturday (April 10) to announce Bang Bang Con 21. The virtual event is scheduled to take place on April 17 at 3 p.m. KST on the septet’s official YouTube channel BANGTANTV.

“BTS concert in your room #BANGBANGCON21 coming soon!” the group wrote on Instagram.

Billboard has reached out to BTS’ representatives for further details.

Last April’s inaugural Bang Bang Con was a free two-day online concert series featuring live performance footage dating back to 2015. The event arrived after the act’s 2020 Map of the Soul tour was postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

That summer, BTS followed up with Bang Bang Con: The Live, a 90-minute pay-per-view concert. The virtual performance was held June 14, a day after the band’s seventh anniversary.

BTS recently dropped the new song “Film Out,” a collaboration with J-pop band Back Number that appears as the ending theme in the new Japanese film Signal: Long-Term Unsolved Case Investigation Team. The track will be included on the the septet’s next Japanese-language album, BTS, The Best, which is scheduled for release on June 16.
