Megan Thee Stallion has become an honorary member of a major girl group — but it’s not within the music industry. On Wednesday (Oct. 23), the 29-year-old made an appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon where she also debuted her own jersey for WNBA‘s New York Liberty.

The “Savage” rapper immediately took to X to share her photos of her experience including a shot with some of the teammates while she held up her merch. While the artist is originally from Austin, Texas, she wasn’t shy to show her support for the 2024 champions, even performing her viral “Mamushi” dance with the teammates.

“Im on @FallonTonight TONIGHT hottiesss make sure you tune in 🦋 also s/o to my girls for putting me on the team 😂 @nyliberty,” the caption for the post reads.

NY Liberty made history this year winning their first-ever championship against the Minnesota Lynx. The night of firsts didn’t end there though as it was also the only time a winner-takes-all overtime game has occurred in WNBA history, according to NBC New York.

The best way to show your support for the women’s basketball team (beyond attending games in person) is to rep their official merch. As the 2024 champions, the athletes have a line of exclusive championship merch that you can stock up on and show off.

Hit-Boy shared the unfortunate news yesterday (Oct. 23) that his father Big Hit is back in prison.

The producer posted a video of Big Hit speaking from a jail phone and sharing appreciation for his fans. “It’s free Big Hit, my n—a,” he said. “You know what I’m saying, I f—k with my real fans, my n—a. If y’all f—ing with me, go ‘head and download my CDs and cash out on my merch.”

His son, Hit-Boy also shared a caption explaining why he and his pops were making so much music this past year. “People used to ask me what was I on dropping so much music and moving around with my pops so much,” he began to explain, “In the back of my mind, the paranoia of him going back was always there and here we are. We don’t know what the future holds but Big Hit sends his love to all his supporters. He recorded over 700 songs when he was out so we got more music otw.”

Hit-Boy and Big Hit have been making impressive music since the elder Hit was released from prison in May of 2023. The 53-year-old served a 15-year sentence in federal prison after being caught with 10 kilos of cocaine, 10 guns, and $300,000 in cash while his son was growing up, according to a Men’s Health profile. He then found himself back inside for a 12-year sentence for a crime connected to a hit-and-run accident six years after he got out.

Since Big Hit came home, he and his son released three projects: Surf or Drown, Vol. 2, Paisley Dreams featuring The Game, and Black & Whites featuring The Alchemist.

Two years after she became the first and only woman to debut at No. 1 on Billboard‘s Hot R&B/HipHop Songs as a producer this century — thanks to Nicki Minaj‘s Rick James-indebted “Super Freaky Girl” — Malibu Babie has found a new home.

On Thursday (Oct. 24), ONErpm announced that the artist/producer signed with the distribution and marketing company; “Baddie Bakery,” her new Flyana Boss-assisted single, is due Friday (Oct. 25).

“Malibu Babie’s producer accolades speak for themselves and it’s time for the world to recognize her as an artist,” said Alex Ziabko, denior director of A&R at ONErpm, in a statement. “Malibu reminds us all to have fun from time to time. I’m thrilled to welcome such a strong, creative, forward-thinking artist to ONErpm.”

“I’m so excited to be releasing music with the ONErpm team” added Malibu Babie. “Alex & the incredible team of women he’s brought on to support me — Jenna LoMonaco, Julia McLeod, & Casey Childers, immediately understood my artistic vision and unique path as a producer/artist. I’m thrilled to bring my music to life with an innovative team who takes my mission to trailblaze as seriously as I do!”

In addition to her forthcoming new single with Flyana Boss — the hip-hop duo behind the 2023 hit “You Wish” — Malibu Babie is also prepping a new mixtape for 2025. Beginning Oct. 31, she will join Qveen Herby‘s The Alchemist tour as a supporting act. The trek will commence at The Novo in Los Angeles, visit major cities such as Toronto and New York, and conclude at The Fillmore Miami Beach in Miami on Nov. 23.

Recently, Malibu Babie has landed placements with Katy Perry and Kim Petras (“Gorgeous”), as well as official remixes of tracks from Sia and Kylie Minogue (“Dance Alone”) and Shania Twain (“Giddy Up!”). She released her debut mixtape, Malibu SZN, Vol. 1, in November 2022.

Hailing from Olympia, Wash., Malibu Babie graduated from Vanderbilt University, where she made an eleventh-hour decision during her senior year to ditch her law school aspirations and go all in on music. After six years of toiling in the industry — including a stint as a studio intern for a company called ZMG in Nashville — she finally struck gold with “Super Freaky Girl.”

Minaj’s 2022 smash debuted atop the Billboard Hot 100 chart dated Aug. 27, 2022, becoming Minaj’s first unaccompanied No. 1 hit on the chart. The “Super Freak”-sampling track also helped Minaj become the first solo female rapper to debut at No. 1 on the Hot 100 since Lauryn Hill did so with “Doo Wop (That Thing)” in 1998. The same week “Super Freaky Girl” reigned as America’s most-consumed song, Malibu Babie notched a second Hot 100 entry, this time with Megan Thee Stallion‘s “Her,” a house-inflected track from Megan’s Traumazine LP. That track, whose music video earned three nods at the 2023 MTV Video Music Awards, peaked at No. 62 on the Hot 100.

Glory be to the father (Charli XCX), the son (Sabrina Carpenter) and the holy spirit (Chappell Roan). Amen.

Shortly after the Primavera Sound lineup was announced Thursday (Oct. 24), featuring all three women with top billing, the “365” singer took to X to declare that she and her co-headliners have now officially formed a sacred union.

“headlining primavera sound next year with sabrina and chappell,” Charli tweeted. “finally holy trinity unlocked ;)”

Taking place at Barcelona’s Parc Del Fòrum June 5-7, the festival’s lineup will also feature sets from LCD Soundsystem, FKA Twigs, Fontaines DC, Clairo, Haim, Turnstile, Wet Leg, Beach House, Waxahatchee, Beabadoobee, Caribou, Anohni, Denzel Curry and more. The Brat summer ring leader previously performed at 2024’s iteration of Primavera Sound, which was headlined by Lana Del Rey, SZA and more.

Regarding Charli’s tweet, it’s easy to see the connection between her, the “Espresso” singer and “Good Luck, Babe!” musician. All three pop stars had explosive breakthrough years in 2024, with the “Von Dutch” artist’s LP Brat reaching No. 3, Carpenter’s Short n’ Sweet hitting No. 1 and Roan’s The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess ascending to No. 2 on the Billboard 200. All three of those chart peaks mark career highs for the artists.

Charli is now in the midst of her Sweat Tour with Troye Sivan in support of Brat. In a recent interview with Apple Music 1’s Zane Lowe, the “Boom Clap” artist revealed that she originally didn’t think her latest album would “appeal to a lot of people,” something that partially inspired her now-iconic lime-green text-only cover art.

“Where the actual first idea of doing a text cover came from was to save money,” she said at the time. “It actually feels like it very much embodies the word ‘brat’ to kind of not be there, because that is sort of less of the norm, I suppose, for female artists. That felt punchy. The pixilation makes it looks like it’s kind of been done in this rush … you didn’t get the proper hi-res file… I knew it would generate this conversation. I knew that a lot of people would be sort of frustrated or disappointed by it.”

See Charli’s tweet below.

Rihanna is staying loyal to Kendrick Lamar and hyping him up before he headlines the Super Bowl halftime show next year.

Entertainment Tonight‘s Kevin Frazier asked the Fenty mogul in an interview published Thursday (Oct. 24) her thoughts about the “Not Like Us” hitmaker taking over the stage during the big game.

“It’s a diamond on a ring finger, honey. It’s meant to be!” the “Diamonds” singer explained. “It’s Kendrick Lamar! Kendrick Lamar is the one that’s supposed to do it right now. He’s gonna crush it. We should never doubt him. He’s an amazing artist, top-tier. He had an incredible year. He actually brought so many people together. It’s to be celebrated. That’s what culture is. He deserves it. I cannot wait to see it. Kendrick, thank you.”

RiRi did the honors at the 2023 Super Bowl halftime show, where she revealed she was expecting baby No. 2 with A$AP Rocky — their now-1-year-old son, Riot. At the time, her performance was the most-watched halftime show of all time, with 121 million viewers, according to a Nielsen report. Usher‘s performance earlier this year surpassed RiRi’s record, attracting 123 million viewers.

Rihanna was included on Billboard‘s dream halftime show guest list for Lamar’s set, considering they teamed up on “Loyalty” from Dot’s 2017 Pulitzer Prize-winning album Damn. Their collaboration reached No. 14 on the Billboard Hot 100 and won the Grammy for best rap/sung performance at the 2018 awards show. They performed the song together at Lamar’s former label TDE’s annual Christmas concert and toy drive in 2017.

Both Jennie and Rosé are currently rolling out their next solo eras, and to celebrate, the BLACKPINK stars individually sat down with Buzzfeed Celeb to play with adorable baby animals while they answered questions.

First up, Jennie, who recently dropped her empowering new single “Mantra,” revealed that she’s currently in a “hardworking, no rest, Jennie mode,” adding, “Hopefully after this album comes out, I can have some fun in my era.”

While she played around with the sweetest group of kittens — who were a bit shy at first but eventually warmed up to the K-pop idol — Jennie shared that she hopes fans feel the “good energy of “Mantra,” and “how I’m just really talking about embracing yourself and having fun all the time.”

She also revealed the BLACKPINK song she’d put in a time capsule for future generations. “I think ‘Whistle,’ because I love that song and I think it’s a timeless song,” she explained. “It’s already been eight years since that song came out and I still listen to it here and there.”

For her interview, Rosé answered the same question. “I would pick ‘Kill This Love.’ It’s a bada– song,” she revealed.

The singer, who happily tried to wrangle energetic puppies during her interview, opened up about working with Bruno Mars on her new song, “APT.” She shared, “I am so lucky to have him on the song. He’s helped so much. He has a vision for everything. It’s so good. I’ve had times where I was struggling with something and he really has helped me so much in wrapping up this album. I’m such a big fan.

The song is set to be featured on her upcoming solo album rosie, which Rosé described as “an album full of my most honest stories and it’s just a representation of all the thoughts running through my mind in the past year. It’s a very personal one so hopefully people feel closer to me through the album.”

As for her fellow BLACKPINK members embarking on solo journeys, Rosé beamed with support. “I think it’s amazing. I’m so excited for everyone,” she said. “I’m their biggest fan. I’m proud of all of these girls. It’s nice to have these sisters go through similar journeys with me.”

Stevie Nicks has high hopes for Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce.

In a new interview with Rolling Stone published Thursday (Oct. 24), the 76-year-old rock legend gushed about her famous friend, whom Nicks thinks “has a good man” (aka a certain Kansas City Chiefs tight end). “She is really smart, but she also went through a lot before,” the Fleetwood Mac frontwoman told the publication of Swift. “She’s in a good place right now. … I hope they fall deeper and deeper in love and ride off into the sunset.”

“[Travis] does his thing and she does her thing, and then they come back together and get married and have babies if she wants that,” Nicks continued. “I just want all of that for her.”

The “Edge of Seventeen” singer previously hung out with Swift and Kelce after one of the pop star’s July Eras Tour shows in Dublin. Elsewhere in the interview, Nicks said she gifted the football player a blanket — “That is what I buy for my friends if there’s a special occasion,” she said — and the star recently recorded a collaboration with his older brother, Jason Kelce, for the upcoming Philly Specials Christmas project.

Also in the interview, Nicks spoke about voting for Kamala Harris in the Nov. 5 presidential election (“I never voted until I was 70 … It’s a big regret”), giving Lindsey Buckingham “300 million chances” before cutting him off for good, and toxic fan culture. While on the latter subject, she recalled Katy Perry once telling her “about the Internet armies of all the girl singers, and how cruel and rancid they were.”

“I said, ‘Well, I wouldn’t know because I’m not on the Internet,’” Nicks continued of their conversation. “She said, ‘So, who are your rivals?’ I just looked at her. It was my steely look. I said, ‘Katy, I don’t have rivals. I have friends. All the other women singers that I know are friends. Nobody’s competing. Get off the Internet and you won’t have rivals either.’”

Plus, the Rock & Roll Hall of Famer shared her thoughts on Chappell Roan. “Evidently she likes my music a lot,” Nicks said of the “Good Luck, Babe!” singer. “Me and a friend of mine went and looked at her schedule, and it was outrageous — what she’s already done and then what she’s going into. It’s as bad as any schedule we ever did, and she’s new, and she’s young. I said, ‘They’ll burn her out if that’s what they want to do, because there’s always somebody to replace you.’”

Nicks is fresh off the release of a new single titled “The Lighthouse,” which she wrote after the Supreme Court turned over Roe v. Wade in 2022. The performer gave the song its live debut on Saturday Night Live earlier this month during the Ariana Grande-hosted episode.

Shortly before dropping the anthemic track in September, Nicks endorsed the Harris-Walz campaign with an Instagram post referencing Swift, who also spoke out in favor of the Democratic ticket that month. “As my friend @taylorswift so eloquently stated, now is the time to research and choose the candidate that speaks to you and your beliefs,” she wrote at the time. “Your vote in this election may be one of the most important things you ever do.”

GloRilla nabs her second top 10-charting effort on Billboard’s Top Album Sales chart (dated Oct. 26), and with her best sales week yet, as Glorious debuts at No. 6. The title arrives at No. 6 with nearly 12,000 copies sold in the U.S. in the week ending Oct. 17, according to Luminate. The album was available in both a standard and bonus track digital download edition, as well as a signed CD edition.

GloRilla previously visited the top 10 with Anyways, Life’s Great… in 2022, debuting and peaking at No. 6.

Glorious additionally opens in the top 10 across multiple other charts: Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums (No. 2), Top Rap Albums (No. 2), Top Streaming Albums (No. 4) and the Billboard 200 (No. 5) – all with her best ranks yet on each chart.

Billboard’s Top Album Sales chart ranks the top-selling albums of the week based only on traditional album sales. The chart’s history dates back to May 25, 1991, the first week Billboard began tabulating charts with electronically monitored piece count information from SoundScan, now Luminate. Pure album sales were the sole measurement utilized by the Billboard 200 albums chart through the list dated Dec. 6, 2014, after which that chart switched to a methodology that blends album sales with track equivalent album units and streaming equivalent album units.

Elsewhere on the Top Album Sales chart, Jelly Roll racks up his best sales week ever, and first No. 1, as Beautifully Broken bows atop the list with 114,000 sold. The album’s opening week sales were bolstered by its availability across seven vinyl variants, three CD variants (the CDs sold a combined 65,000, including a signed edition sold through the artist’s webstore), a cassette tape and three download album variants (the downloads sold 32,000). Net profits from pre-orders of the CD and vinyl in his webstore benefitted four charity organizations.

Charli XCX’s Brat flies 25-2 with 48,000 (up 1,281%) for its highest rank and best sales week yet. The surge follows the album’s two deluxe reissues released in the week ending Oct. 17. All versions of the album are combined for tracking and charting purposes. For the deluxe reissues (dubbed Brat and it’s completely different but also still brat), the album’s original tracklist was supersized on Oct. 11 to add in 16 remixes of the set’s songs (with guests including The 1975 and Ariana Grande; available on vinyl, CD, cassette and digital download). Then, on Oct. 14, the deluxe was plussed, adding a remix of “Spring Breakers” featuring Kesha (available as a digital download purchase).

Chappell Roan’s former No. 1 The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess dips 2-3 (14,000; up 6%), Sabrina Carpenter’s Short n’ Sweet is steady at No. 4 (14,000; up 6%), Coldplay’s Moon Music falls 1-5 in its second week (12,000; down 89%), Stray Kids’ chart-topping ATE rises 8-7 (9,000; up 7%), Billie Eilish’s Hit Me Hard and Soft jumps 12-8 (8,000; up 14%) and ENHYPEN’s chart-topping Romance: Untold rises 13-9 (7,000; up 10%).

Rounding out the top 10 is Myles Kennedy with the arrival of The Art of Letting Go, bowing at No. 10 with nearly 7,000. It’s the sixth top 10 for the artist.
