Everything’s coming up Louis. Less than a day after former One Direction star Louis Tomlinson announced the release date for his upcoming third solo album, How Did I Get Here? and dropped the LP’s lead single, “Lemonade,” the singer announced the dates for the North American portion of his 2026 How Did We Get Here? world tour.

The 28-date arena run will kick off on June 3 at Pacific Coliseum in Vancouver, before moving on to Seattle, San Francisco, San Diego, Los Angeles, Las Vegas, Phoenix, Austin, Minneapolis, St. Louis, Nashville, Chicago, New York, Pittsburgh, Boston, Montreal, Detroit, Cleveland and Atlanta, winding down on July 24 at the Kaseya Center in Miami.

An artist pre-sale begins on Oct. 8 at 10 a.m. local, followed by a general on-sale beginning on Oct. 10 at 10 a.m. local; click here to register for the presale and here for more ticketing information.

In a statement about the album due out on Jan. 23, Tomlinson said, “I sum up it as ‘The record I always deserved to make.’ My bread and butter is my honesty. I genuinely wear my heart on my sleeve, and I hope it comes through in the music. I’m still learning and getting better as a singer and a songwriter. I find it impossible to be complacent; it’s not in my vocabulary. For the first time now, I’m allowing myself to be the artist I’d always hoped to be.”

Before he hits the road, Tomlinson will oversee this weekend’s Away From Home festival, which will be held in the U.S. for the first time at the Brewery Ommegang in Cooperstown, N.Y. on Saturday (Oct. 4) and Sunday (Oct. 5). It will feature headlining performances by Tomlinson and Lauv, along with sets by Plain White T’s, Daya, Pale Waves and special guest Steve Aoki, among others.

Lianne La Havas is back: After five years of relative quiet, the British singer-songwriter has returned with new single “Disarray.” 

The emotive song, which La Havas has described in a press release as a “window into a moment of my life,” was recorded live to tape, capturing a tender, passionate vocal performance. “The song felt very intimate, almost like a secret just for me,” she added.

“My memory of this/ Will forever exist/ I have one wish/ That you would be the man you were,” the 36-year-old sings atop finger-plucked electric guitar, poignantly describing the protracted breakdown of a relationship. Listen to the track in full below.

“Disarray” marks the first slice of new material from La Havas since her self-titled LP, which was released in 2020. Written with Matthew Hales, the concept record depicted the stages of dating from early romance to its end, and scooped the best album prize at the Ivor Novello Awards the following year.

Lianne La Havas charted at No. 7 on the Official U.K. Albums Chart upon release and also earned its author a BRIT nomination for best female solo artist. It marked the Londoner’s third top 10 album in the U.K., following 2015’s Blood (No. 2) and the Mercury Prize-nominated Is Your Love Big Enough? (No. 4), released three years prior.

Posting to social media, La Havas has indicated that “Disarray” is the start of a new chapter in her career, though details of an album are yet to be revealed. 

​​”For the last couple of years, my life could have been described as utter disarray,” she wrote in a cryptic post uploaded to Instagram last week (Sept. 24). “Today, I can thankfully say, that is now firmly in the past, so I’d like to share my story with you in the coming months.”

A federal judge has denied a bid by Sean “Diddy” Combs to overturn his prostitution convictions, clearing the path for sentencing later this week.

In a ruling late Tuesday (Sept. 30), Judge Arun Subramanian rejected Combs’ various arguments for a new trial, including his eyebrow-raising claim that the “freak-off” sex parties at the heart of the case were just porn movie shoots protected by the First Amendment.

“Illegal activity can’t be laundered into constitutionally protected activity just by the desire to watch it,” the judge wrote. “Combs’s conduct goes far beyond that point.”

Judge Subramanian also rejected arguments about the Mann Act, the federal prostitution law Combs violated. His lawyers argued that the star merely hired men for consensual sex with his girlfriend, which they said didn’t meet the definition of “prostitution.” But the judge didn’t buy it.

“That definition would narrow prostitution almost out of existence,” he wrote. “It would exclude any situation in which a person pays a third party (like a brothel) to have sex with an employee.”

The ruling will clear the way for Combs’ sentencing, which is scheduled for Friday (Oct. 3). Prosecutors are seeking 11 years, while defense attorneys say Combs should get just 14 months — a sentence that would see him released almost immediately on time served.

Combs was arrested and charged in September 2024 with racketeering (RICO) and sex trafficking violations over accusations that he ran a sprawling criminal operation aimed at facilitating “freak-offs” — elaborate events which he allegedly forced ex-girlfriend Cassie Ventura and other women to have sex with male escorts while he watched and masturbated.

Following a blockbuster trial this spring, jurors issued a verdict clearing Combs on the RICO and sex trafficking charges that could have seen him sentenced to prison for life. But he was still convicted on two other counts for transporting Ventura and others across state lines for the purposes of prostitution.

In July, Combs’ lawyers asked the judge to overturn those convictions, calling them an “unprecedented” and unconstitutional use of the Mann Act against their client.

“Sean Combs sits in jail based on evidence that he paid adult male escorts and entertainers who engaged in consensual sexual activities with his former girlfriends, which he videotaped and later watched with the girlfriends,” his lawyers wrote. “That is not prostitution, and if it is, his conviction is unconstitutional.”

But in Tuesday’s decision, Judge Subramanian said there were no constitutional issues with the century-old statute or the way the government was now wielding it against Combs.

“Combs is right that the Mann Act’s text and application have changed over the last century,” the judge wrote. “But that has little relevance to his conduct, which sits at the heartland of the Act’s legitimate proscriptions. Unsurprisingly then, his conviction raises no constitutional problem.”

The judge also rejected arguments that there was simply not enough evidence to support the prostitution convictions. He ruled that prosecutors had “presented overwhelming evidence of Combs’s guilt under the Mann Act on many occasions” and that the government “proved its case many times over.”

In addition to clearing the way for sentencing, Tuesday’s ruling also sets the stage for Combs’ certain appeal of his convictions. Procedurally, such post-trial motions must be filed and denied by a trial judge before an appeal can be filed at a circuit court.
