Camila Cabello is an Addison Rae stan — and she’s giving “Diet Pepsi” the C, Xoxo treatment. While visiting the BBC Radio Live Lounge, the Cuban Mexican star performed a few tracks, including “Godspeed” and a stripped-back cover of the Rae single.

“Untouched, Xo/Young lust, let’s go,” sang Cabello, dressed in an oversized gray suit and light-blue dress shirt. “When we drive in your car, I’m your baby/Losing all my innocence in the backseat.”

Abi Carter, the 21-year-old musician from Indio, California became the 22nd winner of “American Idol” on Sunday night. She defeated Will Moseley and Jack Blocker in the season finale as judges Luke Bryan, Katy Perry and Lionel Richie proudly looked on.

Abi made a bit of history, becoming the first Platinum Ticket recipient to win the competition since the judges started handing them out in Season 20. Singers who show a little “something special” in their auditions are given Platinum Tickets that allow them to skip the first round of Hollywood Week. The other Platinum Ticket holders in 2024 were Julia Gagnon, who placed in the Top 7 and Odell Bunton Jr., who finished in the Top 20.

In Season 20 the recipients were HunterGirl, Kenedi Anderson and Jay. That year the judges forecast one finalist in HunterGirl, who went on to become the runner-up to Noah Thompson. After her Top 24 performance of “Human,” Kenedi...

“The Voice” battles round for season 25 concluded on Tuesday night with each of the four coaches narrowing their teams of 10 down to seven.

In 2022 “American Idol” introduced fans to the Platinum Ticket, an upgraded form of the golden ticket that allows the season’s most promising contestants to skip the first round of Hollywood Week after giving a stellar audition. It may sound like judges Luke Bryan, Katy Perry and Lionel Richie favor those contestants, but how big of an advantage is the Platinum Ticket?

In Season 20 the recipients were HunterGirl, Kenedi Anderson and Jay. In this case the judges forecast one finalist in HunterGirl, who went on to become the runner-up to Noah Thompson. After her Top 24 performance of “Human,” Kenedi withdrew from the competition for personal reasons. Later that season Jay finished in the Top 7, but was eliminated after well-received performances of “I Have Nothing” and “A Song for Mama.”

Singer Lewis Capaldi has made a “most difficult decision” to cancel all his remaining tour dates to focus on adjusting himself after being diagnosed with Tourette’s.

The tour cancellation comes after his Glastonbury concert on June 24, where his voice broke in the middle of singing “Someone You Loved.” Concertgoers quickly came to his aide and sang his hit song with him. The Saturday event was also his first time returning from his three-week break to focus on his mental and physical health.

On Tuesday, Capaldi posted a message for his fans.

He wrote that he had hoped the three weeks away would help him but “the truth is [he] is still learning to adjust to the impact of [his] Tourette’s.” He also referred to the Glastonbury concert as an “obvious” sign that he needed more time to focus on getting his “mental and physical health in order.”

In an Instagram statement, the performer wrote that his Saturday gig at the U.K.’s Glastonbury festival was a wake-up call.

I haven’t got to the point where any of this feels normal to me yet,” says Lewis Capaldi. He points out that we’re speaking “six years, to the day” since he released his first single, “Bruises”, which quickly racked up 28 million plays on Spotify, making the Glaswegian the fastest unsigned artist to reach 25 million streams on the platform. The following year he wrote a song about the loss of his grandmother – “Someone You Loved” – that would be streamed a staggering 2.8 billion times.

Now “Forget Me” – the lead single from his second album, Broken by Desire to Be Heavenly Sent – has turned platinum in the UK, and he’s still finding his success “just... pfffft... just f***ing bizarre, y’know? I don’t think it will ever feel normal.”

Displays of kindness come in many forms, and Lewis Capaldi was on the receiving end during a concert in Berlin on Feb. 16. Midway through a live performance of "Someone You Loved," the singer experienced a flare-up of Tourette's syndrome, which results in tics, twitches, and uncontrollable repeated movements. Fans quickly noticed Capaldi trying to push through the rest of the song and leapt in to help him finish the lyrics.

"And I tend to close my eyes when it hurts sometimes / I fall into your arms / I'll be safe in your sound 'til I come back around," Capaldi sang, pausing in between words as his tics became more frequent. In fan footage from the show, Capaldi stepped away from the mic to compose himself as fans chanted the remaining lyrics.

At Saturday’s 2023 Brit Awards in London, U.K., Styles saw Capaldi in the crowd after nabbing the Song of the Year gong for “As It Was”.

The One Direction hitmaker proceeded to walk off stage towards Capaldi after pointing at him. The “Someone You Loved” hitmaker then took matters into his own hands, literally, and grabbed Styles’ face before kissing him.

BBC Radio 1 DJ Greg James caught the whole thing on camera, sharing the clip on TikTok.
