Shakira arrived on Tuesday (Jan. 21) in Mexico City, where she will stay for a few days to conduct general rehearsals for her stadium tour Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran, kicking off on Feb. 11 in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Explore Explore See latest videos, charts and news See latest videos, charts and news Local TV station Milenio showed the moment the Colombian superstar arrived this afternoon on a private plane at the Felipe Ángeles International Airport (AIFA), on the outskirts of the Mexican capital. The publication Excélsior also shared a video on social media. Escorted by her private security and elements of the National Guard, Shakira spent a few minutes greeting dozens of fans who were waiting with items alluding to her, hoping to greet her up close or get her autograph. Shakira said in front of the cameras that she was in Mexico City because she has seven concerts scheduled in the capital. The hitmaker of “Monotonía” and “Soltera” recently revealed on the Brazilian show Domingão com Huck that she had chosen the North American country to rehearse and finalize the details of her highly anticipated trek. In brief statements to the Mexican press, Shakira shared how she’s been preparing her new adventure that will take her back to international stages after almost seven years since El Dorado, her previous world tour. “It has been a very healing process, for me and for many women, and for many people who have accompanied me from the start,” said the singer-songwriter. “I am very happy to be here in Mexico, a country that has supported me, understood me, loved me, and I love you with all my heart,” she added. In response to a question about what she liked the most about Mexican cuisine, the Colombian star said she was craving to taste some traditional tacos or flautas, a style of tacos filled with chicken or beef and topped with green or red sauce. According to the promoter Ocesa, the Barranquilla native returns to the country setting a new record by becoming the first artist to give seven consecutive shows at the Estadio GNP Seguros (formerly Foro Sol), gathering about 455,000 people in total. The concerts will take place on March 19, 21, 23, 25, 27, 28, and 30, with tickets sold out, as per Ocesa. Prior to this, Shakira will arrive in the border city of Monterrey, where she has two shows scheduled at the BBVA Stadium on March 12 and 13. She will also make a stop in Guadalajara, where she will offer two concerts at the Akron Stadium on the 16th and 17th of March. A source close to Shakira’s team confirmed to Billboard Español that the singer will remain in the Mexican capital for several days for rehearsals, without specifying how many, but clarified that they will not take place at the Estadio GNP Seguros. Billboard Español made a request for comment to the singer’s promoter and record label, which did not provide more details. Shakira announced last October that the U.S. leg of her Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran world tour would move from arenas to stadiums due to high ticket demand, so the dates for the U.S. were postponed for May, immediately after her tour through Latin America. In December, she added several additional dates for North America. Source link

Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars’ “Die With a Smile” secured a third consecutive week at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 songs chart dated Jan. 25, 2025, and Mars is ready to party. “THANK YOU ALL!” he wrote alongside a cheers emoji and a screenshot of this week’s top 10 on the chart. “I’m headed to the studio right now to make a strip club anthem so I can celebrate and properly act up this weekend.” He concluded by jokingly asking his fans to help him “get in touch with Sexyy Red,” who is known for her party-ready hits. See his post here. The journey of “Die With a Smile” to the top of the Hot 100 came a full five months after the two pop superstars teamed up to drop the duet on Aug. 16. The track soon reached No. 1 on the Billboard Global 200, where it proceeded to spend eight weeks in the top spot. The swoon-worthy ballad is Gaga’s sixth Hot 100 leader and Mars’ ninth. Earlier this month, when the song first topped the chart, Gaga shared a TikTok video thanking her fans for their support. “I’m so honored to be an artist and to have had your ears for this long. Thank you for listening and dancing and making your art along with mine,” she shared in the self-style clip, adding, “I’m so excited that this song is on my new album. I’m so excited for you to hear what more I have in store for you.” Source link

Bernice King, lawyer, global thought leader, activist and daughter of late civil rights leader Martin Luther King Jr., spoke out against Sexyy Red after the rapper posted a fake image with her father on MLK Day. The “Get It Sexyy” MC posted an AI-generated image of her holding hands with the late Rev. Dr. King via X on Monday, which was Martin Luther King Jr. Day. “This is intentionally dishonoring, deplorable, and disrespectful of my family and my father, who is not here to respond himself because he was assassinated for working for your civil and human rights and to end war and poverty,” Bernice King replied to X on Tuesday (Jan. 21). “Please delete.” Sexyy had posted another fake image on Monday of her holding a stack of cash while attending the 1963 March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom in Washington, D.C., with Rev. Dr. King. During this historic march, he delivered his “I Had a Dream” speech. “Happy MLK Day!!” Sexyy wrote as the caption for the image, which also features Chief Keef next to a sign that reads “G.B.E. [Glory Boyz Entertainment] F— TRUMP.” Donald Trump was also inaugurated on Monday for a second term as U.S. president. In 2023, Sexyy claimed the United States needed Trump back in office, but last year, she revealed she voted for Kamala Harris. “I just voted!!! Don’t tell us what to do with our coochies!! #Kamala4President,” she wrote on X while sharing two photos of her “I Voted” stickers on her behind. See Bernice King’s response to Sexyy Red below. This is intentionally dishonoring, deplorable, and disrespectful of my family and my father, who is not here to respond himself because he was assassinated for working for your civil and human rights and to end war and poverty.

Eden Muñoz adds a seventh No. 1 on Billboard’s Regional Mexican Airplay chart, as “Mi Lugar Favorito” jumps from No. 4 to lead the list dated Jan. 25. It’s the second No. 1 on the chart from Eden, Muñoz’s third studio album as a soloist. “I’m thrilled and grateful to see that ‘Mi Lugar Favorito’ has hit No. 1 on Billboard,” Muñoz tells Billboard. “This song has a special value to me, both personally and socially. It’s a song I wrote for my children, but it’s also a tribute to my inner child.” “Mi Lugar Favorito” is the No. 1 song on this week’s Regional Mexican Airplay chart with 7 million audience impressions, accrued in the U.S. during the Jan. 10-16 tracking week, according to Luminate. That’s a solid 27% gain from the week prior, when the song held at its No. 4 high then for a second week. The single becomes Muñoz’s seventh champ on the chart and first of 2025. Previously, “Traigo Saldo y Ganas de Rogar” ruled Regional Mexican Airplay for two weeks last November. The latter also from parent album Eden, released Aug. 15, 2024, via Sony Music Latin. Muñoz’s No. 1 collection dates back to less than three years ago, when he made his Regional Mexican Airplay debut as a solo singer with “Chale!,” for three weeks in charge in 2022. Since then, the Mexican singer/songwriter and producer has landed 10 top 10s and seven career No. 1s, four through non-collaborations and three through pair-ups. Over on the overall Latin Airplay chart, “Favorito” pushes 9-4 with 7.1 million impressions. “Qué Pasaría” If Rauw Alejandro & Bad Bunny Paired Up a No. 1 Hit? Elsewhere, Rauw Alejandro and Bad Bunny team up for their second No. 1 song on the Latin Rhythm Airplay chart, as “Qué Pasaría” (meaning “what would happen”) lifts 2-1 for its first week command. The song arrives almost two years after “Party,” the pair’s previous champ, spent two weeks at the summit in February 2023. For its coronation, “Qué Pasaría” registered 6 million audience impressions earned in the U.S. in Jan. 10-16 tracking week. The new win adds Rauw his 12th No. 1 on Latin Rhythm Airplay, and Benito his 26th. “Qué Pasaría” is the fourth singe from Rauw Alejandro’s No. 1 album, Cosa Nuestra, a six-week dominator on Top Latin Albums between November 2024-January 2025. The new Jan. 25, 2025-dated charts will be posted in full on Billboard‘s website on Jan. 22 (one day later than usual, owed to the Martin Luther King Jr. Day holiday in the U.S. on Jan. 20).

During the 2024 season, tracks by 4,680 unique artists were played at the Ibiza clubbing institution Hï. Of that dizzying number, 50 artists were played more than all the others, and now we know who. Leading the list of the top 50 artists whose music was played most during last year’s Hï season is David Guetta, who was also a 2024 resident at Hï. Fisher, who also held down a residency at the club, follows at No. 2. 2024 Hï residents Patrick Topping and Meduza follow and Nos. 3 and 4, respectively, with fellow resident Eric Prydz occupying the fifth and sixth slots under his own name and his Pryda project. Argy, Pawsa, Anyma and Cajmere round out the top 10. Generally, the list contains a collection of both established acts like The Chemical Brothers, Kings of Tomorrow and Green Velvet, along with very of-the-moment producers including John Summit, Dom Dolla and Keinemusik’s Adam Port and &Me. The 50-act list contains three female artists: Robin S., Róisín Murphy of Moloko and Lyric Hood of Floorplan.

Imogen Heap has been releasing music for nearly three decades, winning two Grammy Awards and influencing a generation of music stars. As of this week, she’s officially a Billboard Hot 100-charting artist, thanks to a streaming revival for her 2005 song “Headlock.” The song, which appears on Heap’s 2005 sophomore LP, Speak for Yourself, debuts at No. 100 on the Hot 100 (dated Jan. 25) almost entirely from its streaming sum: 5.9 million official U.S. streams (up 11%) in the Jan. 10-16 tracking week, according to Luminate. It also holds at its No. 10 high on the Hot Rock & Alternative Songs chart. The song has been generating renewed interest in recent weeks thanks to a viral social media trend involving the psychological horror thriller video game Mouthwashing. Fans use the song to soundtrack various edited compilations of gameplay footage. The track has been particularly active on TikTok, where it has soundtracked over 135,000 clips on the platform to date. Speak for Yourself became Heap’s breakthrough album. The set also includes “Hide and Seek,” which gained traction at the time via its sync in the climactic scene in the second-season finale of The O.C., in which Marissa Cooper shoots Trey Atwood. The scene and the song were later parodied in a 2007 Saturday Night Live digital short by the Lonely Island, helping broaden its reach and turning the song into a meme. The cut was later used in other dramatic scenes in Degrassi: The Next Generation and Normal People. The song’s familiar bridge (“mmm, whatcha say”) culminated in a prominent sample – as the main hook – in Jason Derulo’s 2009 hit “Whatcha Say,” which spent a week at No. 1 on the Hot 100; Heap is credited as a co-writer on Derulo’s song. Though “Headlock” is now Heap’s first charting Hot 100 hit as a recording artist, the U.K. native has earned one additional entry on the survey as both a co-writer and co-producer: Taylor Swift’s “Clean (Taylor’s Version),” from her 1989 (Taylor’s Version), reached No. 30 in November 2023. Heap also co-wrote and co-produced the original “Clean,” from Swift’s 1989 in 2014, but that version didn’t hit the Hot 100. Speak for Yourself debuted at No. 182 on the Billboard 200 in November 2005. It climbed to No. 145 the following February, fueled in part by the popularity of “Hide and Seek.” The album’s influence expanded to its track “Just for Now.” The song was sampled on A$AP Rocky’s “I Smoked Away My Brain (I’m Gods x Demons Mashup),” featuring Heap and Clams Casino, in 2018. The collab hit No. 35 on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart. Heap has charted two additional albums on the Billboard 200 in her career: Ellipse – which soared to No. 5 in 2009 – and Sparks (No. 21; 2014). Her instrumental cast recording The Music of Harry Potter and The Cursed Child: Parts One and Two reached No. 2 on the Classical Albums chart in 2018. “Headlock” isn’t Heap’s only song currently charting on Billboard’s lists: She also appears as half of electronic duo Frou Frou (with Guy Sigsworth) on the pair’s “A New Kind of Love,” which ranks at No. 35 on Hot Rock & Alternative Songs, a week after reaching No. 30.

A$AP Rocky declined a final plea deal offer from prosecutors as jury selection kicked off in Los Angeles on Tuesday (Jan. 21) in his 2021 shooting case. Per The Associated Press, prosecutors offered the Harlem native — born Rakim Mayers — 180 days in jail as part of a deal that would see him plead guilty to one felony count of assault with a semiautomatic firearm. In addition to the six-month jail bid, L.A. County prosecutors were also reportedly looking to recommend three years of probation alongside a seven-year suspended sentence. However, Rocky turned down the deal. “I respectfully decline, thank you,” he told the court, according to Rolling Stone‘s Nancy Dillon. Rocky can face up to 24 years behind bars if convicted on all charges. The 36-year-old is being accused of firing a weapon at former affiliate A$AP Relli — born Terrell Ephron — in November 2021 by a Hollywood hotel. The A$AP Mob frontman was arrested in April 2022 at Los Angeles International Airport and posted a $550,000 bond shortly after. He later pleaded not guilty to all charges in August 2022. Ephron testified that the bullets grazed his knuckles as the feud reached a boiling point with his childhood friend. Rocky’s lawyer, Joe Tacopina, reportedly showed part of his hand on Tuesday when revealing a defense argument that his client was holding a “starter pistol” prop gun, which can be seen on security cameras on the night of the alleged shooting. With jury selection underway, A$AP Rocky’s trial should officially begin later this week. Source link

ROSÉ has now added dance teacher to her resumé. In a new YouTube Short posted to The Kelly Clarkson Show‘s account, Kelly Clarkson tells ROSÉ that she “heard” about a viral dance to the tune of the K-pop star’s Bruno Mars collaboration, “APT.,” asking, “I love dancing, so can you teach me and maybe some of the audience?” When ROSÉ agrees, she shows Clarkson the moves, including criss-crossing your hands over each other before bringing the tops of your hands up to your chin and nodding your head. The “Since U Been Gone” singer picked up on the choreography quickly, and the duo head over to the in-studio audience at the talk show to show them the moves as well. Explore See latest videos, charts and news See latest videos, charts and news “APT.,” which served as the lead single off of ROSÉ’s debut solo album, Rosie, has been making its way up the Billboard charts since its release in October. The song hit No. 1 on the Billboard Japan Hot 100, becoming the first song by a Western act to rule the Japan song chart in more than 11 years. The song also spends an 11th week atop both the Billboard Global 200 and Billboard Global Excl. U.S. charts. During her interview with Clarkson earlier this month, ROSÉ opened up about being vulnerable in her solo music. “Rosie is the name that my friends and family call me, so as much as this album is a little journal of my twenties, I wanted my fans to feel like they can call me Rosie and feel like I’m their friend,” she said of her first full-length project outside of BLACKPINK. “I healed so much through the whole process. For me, it’s a really personal album and I’m really grateful for it.” Of “trauma dumping” during the songwriting process, ROSÉ noted that she’s “extroverted,” adding, “I ended up figuring out that I love talking about my problems in life to strangers. […] It was like a free therapy session.” See the full interview segment here. Source link

Clairo is summoning witches and casting spells on Donald Trump’s Inauguration Day. On Monday (Jan. 20) — the same day Trump was sworn in for his second White House term — the 26-year-old singer/songwriter tweeted a call to action. “Witchcraft on Trump ASAP !” she wrote. It’s not the first time Clairo has expressed opposition to the politician. In November, the artist born Claire Cottrill revealed on X that she had voted for his Democratic opponent, Kamala Harris, in the 2024 election. A few days later, the “Bags” singer expressed disappointment in the outcome of the election at her Nov. 7 concert in Atlanta, tearing up onstage as she said, “I’m full of so much sadness and rage today.” “I’m so f—ing tired of people talking about f—ing bodies,” she added at the time, seemingly referencing the Trump administration’s stance against reproductive freedom. “You’re a f—ing weirdo if you want to make a decision about my f—ing body. It’s really heavy on my heart today.” Though lacking in any actual witchcraft — or so it seems — Inauguration Day certainly had a lot going on. Trump danced along with Village People as the band performed “Y.M.C.A.,” while Carrie Underwood and Billy Ray Cyrus both powered through technical difficulties during their respective performances of “America the Beautiful” and “Old Town Road.” Outgoing President Joe Biden and VP Harris were both present to transfer their seats over to Trump and JD Vance. One day into his second presidency, Trump has already signed multiple executive actions targeting immigration, delaying the national TikTok ban and pardoning people charged with crimes related to the January 6 attacks on the U.S. Capitol. He’s also reversed dozens of Biden-era orders, including a policy that required federal agencies to extend prohibitions on sex discrimination to include sexual orientation and gender identity and an order that allowed transgender people to serve in the US military.
