HANA’s “BAD LOVE” blasts in at No. 1 on the Billboard Japan Hot 100 song chart released Sept. 17.

Members JISOO and MOMOKA of the septet took part in writing the lyrics for this song, which arrived on digital platforms Sept. 8. The breakout girl group performed this number live for the first time at ROCK IN JAPAN FESTIVAL 2025 on Sept. 13, and it launches at No. 1 for downloads, streaming, and video views, while coming in at No. 16 for radio airplay. “BAD LOVE” is the group’s third No. 1 on the Japan Hot 100, following “Blue Jeans” in July and “ROSE” in April. Both of the latter are still charting in the top 10 this week, with “Blue Jeans” at No. 3 and “ROSE” at No. 6. “ROSE” has gained 102% in points compared to the week before.

SixTONES’ “Stargaze” is at No. 2. The six-member boy band’s 16th single is featured as the pep song for this year’s long-running All Japan High School Quiz Championship show on the Nippon Television Network. The track sold 339,953 CDs in its first week to top sales and comes in at No. 20 for radio.

Beéle has been hit with a lawsuit from his ex-girlfriend, Venezuelan influencer Isabella Ladera, claiming the Colombian pop star is responsible for leaking their sex tape and that this illegal conduct caused her serious emotional harm.

The lawsuit, filed by Ladera on Monday (Sept. 15) and obtained by Billboard, is the latest in a messy feud between the influencer and Beéle (Brandon de Jesús López Orozco) since a video of the now-exes having sex went viral on Sept. 7. Ladera publicly accused Beéle of leaking the tape, while Beéle’s reps denied that he was the source of the leak and said the singer is “also a victim” in this situation.

Ladera is now doubling down on blaming Beéle for the leak, saying in the lawsuit that he either intentionally published the video online or shared it with someone else who did the same.

“Only two people had the videos, and Ladera had already erased them almost a year and a half before,” wrote Ladera’s lawyers from the Miami firm Hachar Law Group. “The only other person who Ladera knew had the videos, Beéle, had made his intentions clear when he refused to erase them when Ladera requested that he do so.”

Ladera is suing Beéle for invasion of privacy, sexual cyberharassment, intentional infliction of emotional distress and negligence. She’s seeking damages that “far exceed” the minimum threshold of $50,000, writing that she suffered “shame, humiliation and mental anguish as a result of the public disclosure of her private affairs and activities.”

Beéle’s reps did not immediately return a request for comment on Wednesday (Sept. 17).

The nine-page lawsuit chronicles Ladera and Beéle’s relationship, which began as an Instagram friendship in 2023 and later turned romantic. Ladera says she felt “a sense of security and comfort that she had met someone who actually could be the proverbial ‘One.’”

According to Ladera, it was Beéle who requested that they record their sexual interactions. Ladera says she “never thought that these videos would ever be shared with anyone, let alone be published to the world, as they ultimately were.”

Ladera claims that in 2024, she deleted all the videos in her possession and asked Beéle to do the same. Beéle refused, Ladera says, and “instead questioned her trust in him.”

“Little did she know that the trust she had would one day be broken,” the lawsuit reads.

The couple split this past March, the lawsuit says, “after numerous controversies and rumors” that were “mostly fueled by non-credible internet parasites.”

Ladera claims the issue of the sex tape first arose in June, when two people named Melany Fernandez and Osvaldo Villalobos approached her with screenshots from one of the couple’s videos. These individuals allegedly told Ladera that the screenshots had been shared with them and warned that the full video would be released soon.

Ladera says her management team contacted Beéle’s management about this, and she believed the problem had been resolved. But it was just beginning.  

“Shockingly, on September 7, 2025, one of the videos was leaked through a WhatsApp account,” reads the lawsuit. “The video went viral, and for Ladera the earth stood still.”

Ladera took to Instagram to address the issue on Sept. 8, writing in a lengthy post that Beéle was the source of the leak and that it was “one of the cruelest betrayals” she has ever experienced. Ladera wrote that she and Beéle were the only two people with access to the tape, and that the publication “constitutes a form of violence against women.”

On Sept. 9, Beéle shared a statement of his own on Instagram denying that he was the source and saying the leak had also harmed him. That post, which has since been deleted, said Beéle’s lawyers were taking steps to get the videos taken down.

“Beéle is also a victim of the non-consensual exposure of his private life,” read the now-deleted statement from law firms Víctor Mosquera Marín Abogados and DMR Law LLC. “We reject all forms of violence and will continue to pursue legal channels to ensure the comprehensive defense of his rights.”

The body found in the 2023 Tesla registered to D4vd (real name David Anthony Burke) on Sept. 8 has been identified as a 15-year-old girl named Celeste Rivas.

According to NBC News Los Angeles, Rivas’ decomposed body was identified through forensics. She was last seen in April 2024 in Riverside County, and had been reported missing. Her remains were discovered when police were alerted to a “foul odor” coming from the impounded Tesla’s trunk in the Hollywood Tow lot in Los Angeles.

Officials relayed to NBC News that her remains weren’t intact and she had been dead for an “extended period of time.” The Los Angeles County Medical Examiner’s Office described Rivas as having “wavy black hair,” and she weighed about 71 pounds with a “Shhh…” tattoo on her right index finger.

The 20-year-old singer has reportedly been “fully cooperating” with authorities throughout the investigation.

Billboard has reached out to reps for D4vd, the medical examiner’s office and LAPD for comment.

D4vd is currently trekking across North America on his Withered World Tour, and he’s slated to perform on Wednesday night (Sept. 17) in Seattle at the Showbox SoDo, but it’s unclear if the show will still take place.

The Houston singer had additional tour dates lined up in San Francisco and Los Angeles to wrap up the North American leg, before heading over to Europe in October, where he’s scheduled to hit Norway, Denmark, Sweden, Germany, the Netherlands, Belgium, Ireland, the U.K., France, Switzerland, Austria and Poland.

From acting together on Barney & Friends to settling down with their respective partners, Selena Gomez and Demi Lovato have come a long way.

On the Tuesday night (Sept. 16) episode of Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen, the Camp Rock alum had only kind things to say about her childhood friend and former costar. When asked whether they had listened to the Rare Beauty founder’s joint LP with fiancé Benny Blanco, I Said I Love You First, Lovato replied, “I have listened to the album — really, really great job.”

“I loved the songs on it,” she continued. “‘Bluest Flame’ was my song.”

Lovato also brought up Gomez’s upcoming nuptials to the producer. “I couldn’t be happier for her — she’s engaged,” the vocalist told Cohen. “I just wish her the best.”

The well wishes come after the two former child stars have been in each other’s lives for more than two decades. Originally meeting as kids on Barney and becoming best friends, the pair would go on to costar in Disney Channel movie Princess Protection Program.

Their relationship hasn’t been without its bumps in the road, though. In 2010, Lovato revealed to Girl’s Life that they weren’t besties with Gomez anymore, saying, “True friends don’t let their friends or family be mean to you. If you can’t trust somebody, you can’t be friends with them.”

The pair reconciled for a period after Lovato’s rehab stay in 2011, but in 2015, the Sonny With a Chance star curtly told Complex that they were no longer on speaking terms. In the past few years, however, they’ve supported each other’s projects and performances, indicating that their past conflicts are now water under the bridge.

And while Gomez is now on her way to becoming a bride, Lovato is already a wife, marrying husband Jordan “Jutes” Lutes in May. Also on Watch What Happens Live, the performer opened up about collaborating with her partner, who is also a musician, on 2022’s Holy Fvck and October-slated LP It’s Not That Deep.

“It’s so great,” Lovato gushed. “We wrote a lot of songs on my last album. With this project, he actually wrote a song of mine called ‘In My Head.’ He’s just so talented, and I’m really proud of him.”

The vocalist also shared which of their own songs are the best and worst to perform. “I love performing ‘Stone Cold,’ because I get to sing my a– off,” she said. “The song … I don’t love performing would be ‘Solo,’ because it’s not really a vocal performance.”
