There might be some very public drama among the Beckham family at the moment, but that didn’t stop Victoria and David Beckham from wishing their estranged son Brooklyn a happy birthday on Wednesday (March 4).

Each of the Beckham parents took to Instagram to share two Stories apiece for Brooklyn Beckham’s 27th birthday. The Spice Girls alum and fashion designer shared a throwback photo of the couple in a pool with baby Brooklyn alongside the message “Happy birthday Brooklyn, we love you so much,” as well as a pic of her as a young mom with her baby boy and the message “Happy 27th birthday Brooklyn, I love you so much.” Both posts included red heart emojis.

The soccer superstar, meanwhile, shared the same pool photo with the message “27 today” alongside a holding-back-tears emoji. “Happy Birthday Bust,” the message continued with a white heart. “We love you x.” His second photo was David as a younger dad with an elementary-school-age Brooklyn and a similar message: “Happy Birthday Bust,” he wrote with a pink heart. “Love you x.”

For years, there were rumors floating that Brooklyn Beckham and his wife, Nicola Peltz, were feuding with Brooklyn’s famous parents. Brooklyn’s side of those rumors was confirmed in January, when he shared a series of explosive Instagram Stories detailing his issues with his mom and dad.

“I have been silent for years and made every effort to keep these matters private,” Brooklyn wrote at the time. “Unfortunately, my parents and their team have continued to go to the press, leaving me with no choice but to speak for myself and tell the truth about only some of the lies that have been printed. I do not want to reconcile with my family. I’m not being controlled, I’m standing up for myself for the first time in my life.”

Much of Brooklyn and Nicola’s issues with the Beckhams appeared to stem from their April 2022 wedding, and when the younger couple renewed their vows in August 2025, neither of the elder Beckhams attended. Brooklyn also skipped David’s 50th birthday party last year, while the other three of the Beckhams’ children — Romeo, Cruz and Harper — were all present.

Sony Music Publishing completed a 2025 four-quarter sweep, coming in as the No. 1-ranked publisher in both Radio Airplay and on the Hot 100 in the year’s final quarter.     

After landing the No. 1 spot in both rankings in the first three quarters, Sony cemented its year-long No. 1 placement in Q4 by spinning a commanding lead as the top publisher in the Radio Airplay rankings with a 30.3% showing, nearly eight percentage points better than the No. 2-ranked publisher, Warner Chappell Music. On the Hot 100 ranking, it landed a 21.57% tally — barely beating out a surging Kobalt, which garnered 21.43% of the chart in the fourth quarter — to complete the sweep on both lists.    

Sony is also the publisher for the fourth quarter’s top Radio Airplay songwriter, Shane “sombr” Boose, the sole writer of the two songs he placed on that chart, “Back to Friends” (No. 9) and “Undressed” (No. 78). On the Radio Airplay chart, there was a tie for the No. 1 songwriter among the collaborators on Taylor Swift’s The Life Of A Showgirl album, with 11 of its 12 songs written solely by Swift, Max Martin and Shellback (they had a co-writer on the twelfth song). All 12 tracks landed on Q4’s Hot 100 chart, with 11 of them in the top half, including the quarter’s No. 1 song “The Fate Of Ophelia.” (Swift is represented by Universal Music Publishing Group; Martin and Shellback are represented by Kobalt.)

Sony had a share in 75 songs on the Radio Airplay chart, the same amount as the prior quarter, but its market share was slightly down from Q3’s 30.76%. Its top song placement came from having a stake in the quarter’s No. 1 song, Leon Thomas’ “Mutt.” On the Hot 100, Sony’s song representation fell from 69 songs in Q3 to 49 songs in Q4 — and a corresponding market share drop of eight percentage points from Q3’s 30.10%. Sony’s top song was Alex Warren’s “Ordinary,” the No. 3 tune on that chart.    

In scoring the No. 2 spot in the Radio Airplay rankings, Warner Chappell tallied a 22.13% tally, with 57 song placements on that chart, including a stake in its No. 2 song, “Ordinary.” Even though its song count and share were down from 64 placements and a 23.67% share in Q3, its Q4 showing represented the ninth consecutive quarter that Warner Chappell came in second place on that chart. On the Hot 100 rankings, however, Warner Chappell fell from No. 2 to No. 3 as its market share declined from 22.32% to 16.92%, and its song count dropped from 52 to 36 in the prior quarter.

Universal Music Publishing Group scored the No. 3 ranking on the Radio Airplay chart with a 13.92% mark, down from the prior quarter’s 14.79% showing. Yet despite a higher Q4 share on the Hot 100 chart, at 16.69%, it only managed the No. 4 spot there. Its top Q4 song on the Radio Airplay chart was Justin Bieber’s “Daisies,” the No. 3 song on that chart and one of UMPG’s 44 placements; on the Hot 100, it snared 47 song placements, including the Swift tracks, with “Ophelia” its top song.     

Kobalt may have been No. 4 on the Radio Airplay chart, with a 11.59% tally (40 song placements, including “Mutt”), but it came in at No. 2 on the Hot 100 chart, with a 21.43% share and 43 song placements. The last time Kobalt attained that lofty ranking was in the first quarter of 2013 on the Radio Airplay chart. (Billboard began tracking the Hot 100 publishers ranking in 2019.) What’s more, that Hot 100 tally marks the first time Kobalt has surged past the 20% market share milestone since Billboard began tracking the Radio Airplay rankings for publishers in 2006.

BMG notched a No. 5 publisher ranking on both charts, with a 6.23% score from 14 songs on the top Radio Airplay chart and an 8.15% tally from the same amount of songs on the Hot 100. Its top-placing song on both charts was “Golden” from the KPop Demon Hunters soundtrack, which was No. 4 and No. 2 on the tallies, respectively.    

The second half of the Radio Airplay rankings saw Concord (No. 6), Spirit (No. 7), Position Music (No. 8) and Big Machine (No. 10) holding over from Q3, though Concord was the only one that showed market share improvement, with its 2.36% share up from the prior quarter’s 1.40% — lifting it from Q3’s No. 8 ranking. Meanwhile, Reservoir returned to the top 10 at No. 9 with a 1.19% tally, after missing out in the prior two quarters.

On the Hot 100 rankings, the only holdover was Concord at No. 7, with a 2.05% share, the same ranking as last quarter despite nearly doubling its Q3 share of 1.07%. The new additions were St. Nicholas Music (No. 6), making its traditional 4th quarter appearance thanks to its representation of legendary Christmas music songwriter Johnny Marks. Ranked Nos. 8-10 were peermusic, Round Hill Music and a debut from Tamir Music, thanks to its stake in Eartha Kitt’s “Santa Baby” with Henri Rene and His Orchestra.

**Methodology: For the Top 10 Publishers Top Radio Airplay chart, percentage calculations were based upon the overall top 100 detected songs from 3,122 U.S. radio stations electronically monitored by Mediabase 24 hours a day, seven days a week during the period of Oct. 1 to Dec. 31, 2025. For Top 10 Publishers Hot 100 Songs, percentage calculations were based upon the top 100 songs ranked by Billboard Hot 100 points calculated from digital sales, streaming and Mediabase-tracked radio airplay detections during the period of Sept. 25 to Dec. 25, 2025, reflecting the chart dates of Oct. 11, 2025, to Jan. 3, 2026.

Andra Day is set to receive the Harry Chapin Humanitarian Award at WhyHunger’s Chapin Awards Gala on May 6 at Cipriani 25 in New York City. WhyHunger is a global nonprofit dedicated to ending hunger and advancing the right to nutritious food.

Day is best known for her hit “Rise Up,” which brought her a Grammy nomination for best R&B performance in 2016, and for her Oscar-nominated performance as jazz legend Billie Holiday in The United States vs. Billie Holiday. She won a Grammy for that film’s soundtrack album in 2022.

“‘Rise Up’ began as a personal reminder to keep going when the world feels heavy, and I never imagined it would become an anthem for resilience and justice,” Day shared in a statement. “To me, justice isn’t abstract — it means no one goes hungry, every child has nourishment and every community has hope. If this song has helped even one person have more compassion or be healed, I’m grateful.”

The Chapin Awards Gala will include a cocktail reception, dinner and live music. Previous event honorees include Pat Benatar and Neil Giraldo, Barbra Streisand, Elvis Costello, Emmylou Harris, Grace Potter, Darryl “DMC” McDaniels, Harry Belafonte, Jackson Browne, Jason Mraz, John Mellencamp, Jon Batiste, Judy Collins, Pete Seeger and Tom Morello.

Day’s participation in the 2020 PlayOn televised benefit concert helped raise more than $7 million to support WhyHunger and the NAACP LDF. Beyond hunger, Day’s charitable work has championed social and racial justice, gender equality, girls’ and women’s rights, the Elton John AIDS Foundation, and juvenile justice system reform.

In 2025, WhyHunger celebrated 50 years of impact and raised $1.4 million from its 40th annual Hungerthon fundraiser involving Bruce Springsteen, Chef Marcus Samuelsson, SAINt JHN, Yola, Young the Giant and more. In the last five years, the nonprofit has connected 6.6 million people to food and invested $9.6 million in community-led solutions globally.
