This summer, Foo Fighters goes on the Take Cover tour throughout the United States, with dates starting Tuesday, April 28 at Total Mortgage Arena in Bridgeport, Connecticut. The first part of the U.S. tour comes to a close on Saturday, May 23, at BottleRock Napa Valley in Napa, California.

However, the band then heads out to Europe for the rest of the summer before returning back to the U.S. with dating restarting at Michigan’s Ford Field in Detroit on Aug. 6. The official end of the U.S. tour is on Sept. 26, at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas.

Additionally, Queens of the Stone Age and Mannequin Pussy are set to support as the opening acts throughout the North American leg of the tour.

Meanwhile, Foo Fighters just released Your Favorite Toy, their twelfth studio album, on April 24.

Tickets to the tour first went on sale through Live Nation and Ticketmaster, while the retailer’s Face Value Exchange program is an option for fans to resell tickets.

However, many of the dates have either sold out, or are very close to selling out, so one of the best ways to find Foo Fighters tickets online is through third-party sites, including TicketNetwork, StubHub, Vivid Seats, Event Tickets Center, Gametime and others. All online retailers guarantee authentic tickets in time for your concert.

In addition, Billboard likes that tickets are all delivered digitally, so you can get them sent instantly to your smartphone or email. Prices may also be above or below face value at times.

Tyla may have gone viral with her hit song, “Chanel,” but for the rest of us, it’s no small feat to land a coveted bag from the house that Coco built.

For starters, Chanel bags can run into the tens of thousands of dollars, especially classic styles like the quilted flap bag. New styles like the Chanel 25, which made its debut in the Spring/Summer 2025 collection and counts Dua Lipa and Jennie as ambassadors, can still cost you upwards of $5,000 — and that’s if you can get your hands on one in store. Like an Hermes bag, many Chanel bags are only available for purchase for VIP customers, or people who have spent a pre-set amount on other pieces (think clothing, footwear and accessories) in store. Not everyone has the money to make that happen.

So color us thrilled when we spotted this Chanel 25 dupe for just $65 on Amazon. While stars like Margot Robbie and Nicole Kidman carry the real thing, we think this cheaper alternative looks pretty convincing to the naked eye.

BEST DUPE

Quilted Leather Hobo Bag with Chain Strap Drawstring

$65.99

Buy Now On Amazon

A new release on Amazon, this bag features a genuine leather construction according to the manufacturer, with a classic quilted pattern and metallic chain.

---

Marketed as a hobo bag, the bag cinches in the middle for that slouchy, boho look, but it can also be expanded to be carried as a tote, or under the arm as a shoulder bag. Measuring approximately 12 x 6 x 8 inches in size, there’s enough room inside for your wallet, makeup, charger and other daily accessories. An interior zip pocket is great to stash your cards, cash and other valuables. There’s also a side pocket on the outside.

This is one of the better Chanel 25 dupes we’ve seen online and reviewers agree, saying that the bag looks “way more expensive” than its price point, and praising the surprisingly thick material, which helps the bag keep its structure and shape. You’ll note that while Chanel bags use silver chains, the chain detailing here is made from metal. What that means: the bag will be more lightweight, but it won’t have the same thickness and shine as true silver.

It’s already a steal at its regular $30 price point but Prime members can save an additional 20% off right now, bringing the price of this Chanel 25 lookalike down to just $23.

This bag is made from a vegan leather that’s ultra durable and easy to wipe clean. The bag retains the same slouchy look and feel as the Chanel 25 but at a much more reasonable price point — and without the wait list.

Women’s Pre-Loved Chanel Red Calfskin 22 Bag

Of course if you want an actual Chanel, Amazon has that too. We didn’t find a Chanel 25 online, but we did spot this Chanel 22 bag for sale as part of Amazon’s pre-loved selection with the popular vintage store What Goes Around Comes Around.

Made from a luxe and supple calfskin, this bag is officially certified as the real deal, and while it’s definitely pricey compared to the Chanel alternatives above, consider this a true investment piece.

Kevin Hart is cautious when it comes to Cam’ron‘s interview style — and rightfully so, because the Harlem rapper isn’t afraid to ask the tough questions.

During a recent taping of Talk With Flee, Cam started the show off explaining how he ran into the actor and tried to get him on the episode. However, Hart wasn’t going for it, telling him, “Absolutely not,” because — according to him — Cam’ron has “the most dangerous show in the world” due to the controversial subjects Killa has the propensity to bring up. Although, the comedian did say that he would appear on the show, only if they “schedule it the right way.”

Thankfully, though, Kevin happened to walk by the studio as Cam finished speaking about him and was eventually coerced into sitting down for a quick couple of questions after being flagged down. And as soon as he walked in, he pleaded with Cam saying, “Please don’t f— up my career.”

When Hart was asked why he blurted out “damn!” after fellow actor Don Cheadle told him his age in a now-viral clip, he said: “It was a real reaction. I’m shocked at the age of some, and Don definitely looks his age, but I wasn’t ready to hear it. So that was just a real reaction. ‘Damn!’ But then I immediately retracted it, which made it right.”

Hart then allowed Cam to ask him one more question, and this is where things took a turn. Cam’ron brought up the 2002 movie Paper Soldiers, in which Hart made his film debut thanks to a mutual friend. “Your very first movie you did — I was actually in it,” Cam said. “When you see Dame Dash today, what do you think?”

Without answering, Hart just got up and walked out of the interview which, of course, caused the entire studio to erupt in laughter.

Killa has a knack for going viral. The most recent interview to get traction was his sitdown with J. Cole, where the two hashed out their differences over a lawsuit Cam filed regarding his guest verse on the Carolina rapper’s mixtape Might Delete Later.

From Miss Americana to Miss American Idol.

During Monday night’s (April 20) new episode, American Idol revealed that it will host a Taylor Swift Night next week, which will find the top seven contestants celebrating the pop superstar’s “chart-topping hits and defining eras.”

The April 27 episode — which will feature guest judge Nikki Glaser, a loud-and-proud Swiftie — will be the first night entirely dedicated to Swift’s music in the show’s 24 seasons.

Idol debuted on Fox in 2002, four years before Swift released her self-titled debut album, and ran for 15 seasons on the network until 2016. It then picked back up on ABC in 2018 for its 16th season and is currently airing season 24 live on Monday nights.

Though Swift has never appeared on Idol as a performer or guest judge, her music has definitely had a presence on the show — including just this season, when Bryant Thomas covered “Champagne Problems” from her 2020 album Evermore during Hollywood Week back in February. Other notable Swift moments include McKenna Breinholt singing 2020 Folklore lead single “Cardigan” and eventual winner Abi Carter covering the 2012 Red fan favorite “All Too Well,” both in season 22.

On Monday night’s episode, the season 24 top nine performed for Disney Night, in which they each performed a song from a Disney movie, with Idol alum Jennifer Hudson returning as a guest mentor and guest judge. Hudson — who now hosts the daily talk show The Jennifer Hudson Show and has become an EGOT winner — finished in seventh place on the third season of the talent competition show.

Next week, the nine contestants will be whittled down to the top seven during Taylor Swift Night.

Re-pack your festival bags. Now that Coachella 2026 is finally over, country music’s biggest festival, Stagecoach 2026, is up next, and tickets are going fast.

This year’s headliners — Cody Johnson, Lainey Wilson and Post Malone — will be taking the stage from April 24 through the 26 at the Empire Polo Club in Indio, Calif. The festival is held on the same grounds as Coachella, with minor tweaks made here and there to accommodate different acts. Other notable performers featured in the stacked lineup include Bailey Zimmerman, Riley Green, Brooks & Dunn, Ella Langley, Red Clay Strays, Warren Zeiders, Nate Smith, Sam Barber, Gavin Adcock, Wyatt Flores, Hudson Westbrook and Cameron Whitcomb.

Many festival-goers often come to the grounds for the HonkyTonk tent. Tent’s lineup is curated by Diplo and will see performances from the DJ and music producer along with Emo Nite featuring Ashlee Simpson, Dillstradamus (Dillon Francis + Flosstradamus), Juicy J, Loud Luxury, Marshmello, DJ Pauly D, Rebecca Black, Theo Von b2b Caleb Pressley, Two Friends and Wuki, among others. This is the fourth year that Diplo’s HonkyTonk tent has been on the festival grounds.

If you can’t make it out to the desert this year, you can catch all the action via Amazon Music, the exclusive livestream destination for Stagecoach 2026. The stream will run from April 24–26 across Prime Video, Twitch and the Amazon Music app, starting at 3 p.m. PDT every day. Tickets for the festival went on sale in October, and the demand for them hasn’t died down. Securing tickets to the festival can be difficult, especially given that they sell out within hours of release. Not to mention, pricing is not always ideal.

Below, we’ve compiled some of our favorite sites to shop for affordable last-minute tickets for Stagecoach 2026. We’ve also included promo codes that’ll hopefully bring down the pricing further. Keep reading to learn more.

Billie Eilish‘s Hit Me Hard and Soft Tour, in support of her 2024 album of the same name, took place almost two years ago. The tour spanned the globe, making stops in Canada, the United States, Australia, Sweden, Norway, France, Spain and the list goes on and on.

The “Wildflower” singer’s tour started Sept. 29, 2024, and ended more than a year later, on Nov. 23, 2025. The tour was a triumph for Eilish, who played the Billboard Hot 100 top five hits “Lunch,” “Therefore I Am,” “Birds of a Feather” and more in front of thousands. If you got to see the tour and you’re looking to sing your heart out and relive the magic, or you missed out and want to see what all the hype is about, Eilish’s tour is coming to the big screen, this time, in 3-D.

The film, titled Billie Eilish – Hit Me Hard and Soft: The Tour, was co-directed by Eilish alongside famed director James Cameron, best known for his work on Titanic and the Avatar film franchise. The video footage you’ll be seeing included in the film was taken during Eilish’s four Manchester shows in 2025, which were attended by around 77,931 people total. If you just can’t wait, early access tickets are available to purchase now at Fandango for screenings beginning April 29 through May 17. Tickets for regular screenings are also available now at Fandango. Regular screening for the film begins May 8.

This is a concert movie filmed during Billie Eilish’s Hit Me Hard and Soft tour in 2024. The concert began in Sept. of that year and ran until Nov. 2025.

The 3-D aspect is a nice touch for creating an immersive atmosphere similar to a concert. If it’s not your thing, though, some locations also offer non-3-D experiences. The same can be said for Dolby theaters showing the film. These theaters combine Dolby Vision, a dual-laser projection that creates ultra-vivid colors and deep contrast, and Dolby Atmos sound that makes audio feel 3D, filling up an entire theater.

If you want the best audio for your moviegoing experience, especially for a concert film like this one, we’d suggest looking for theaters with Dolby Atmos. Dolby Atmos’ quality is considered the best sound format for most modern theaters. It is worth noting that these tickets will cost a little more than your standard theater ticket because of the upgrade in sound quality.

During her 2024/2025 tour, Eilish performed a whopping 106 total shows with an all-star setlist and special guests, including Nat & Alex Wolff, Towa Bird, The Marías, Young Miko, Ashnikko, her brother Finneas, Tom Odell and Lola Young, among others. You’ll likely see some of these special guest performers popping up in the film.

Eddie Murphy took a moment to look out at the star-studded room at the American Film Institute ceremony — at his family, his peers, the people who have shared his journey — and let it all sink in.

“Seeing all of my family, all my kids, my beautiful wife, and seeing all the different people I worked with, I’m just really filled up,” said Murphy, who received the Lifetime Achievement Award at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles on Saturday night (April 18). “This is a special moment. I wish y’all could feel what I’m feeling, see what I’m seeing. I almost teared up. I’m going to get backstage and cry.”

Just before accepting the award, Murphy was met with a standing ovation, stepping onstage and moving through the ballroom as the applause followed. Along the way, he passed Spike Lee, Martin Lawrence, Dave Chappelle, Chris Rock, Arsenio Hall and Judge Reinhold.

The tribute, which also featured appearances from Bill Burr, Kevin Hart, Eva Longoria, Da’Vine Joy Randolph and Kenan Thompson, will premiere as a special on Netflix on May 31.

Murphy, 65, has moved from a teenage stand-up sensation to a breakout force on Saturday Night Live to a box office mainstay with films like Beverly Hills Cop, Coming to America, The Nutty Professor and the Shrek franchise.

Large images from those defining moments filled the venue stage, tracing a career that has crossed stand-up, television and film.

“Eddie made us laugh and made our nation feel better,” said Lee, who presented the award to Murphy. “I took a camera and told stories on how our nation could be better. … We both pushed culture forward. … Every step of this journey, Eddie has been true to himself.”

Comedians pointed to Murphy’s influence across generations.

“There is no us without you,” Rock said.

Lawrence, who starred in the film Life with Murphy, shared a personal moment from early in his career, recalling how Murphy once declined his request for a photo. But now, that shouldn’t be a problem since their children married each other in 2025.

“Now I can get all the pictures I want,” Lawrence said with a smile. “Because we’re in-laws.”

Arsenio Hall, Murphy’s longtime collaborator on Coming to America, spoke about Murphy advocating for him in the film and highlighted the depth of his talent.

“When Eddie does a family film, he plays a whole damn family,” Hall said.

Chappelle reflected on studying Murphy’s stand-up as a teenager watching Raw. He described Murphy as one of the defining figures in the industry and shared a recent visit to his home, where seeing Murphy’s grandchildren playing offered a deeper perspective on his life.

“I would watch him every day after school like I was taking a class,” said Chappelle, who also spoke on an interview where he considered revisiting Chappelle’s Show, a project he once stepped away from, calling it one of the most meaningful experiences of his career.

Chappelle said Murphy encouraged him to revisit the idea, and even joked about joining the project if it comes to fruition.

“You are still the hero I want to be,” he said.

Stevie Wonder described Murphy’s impact as something that extends beyond comedy. He showed his deep admiration for the comedian-actor.

“Laughter can make life livable,” Wonder said. “Eddie is more than a comedian … he is a universal reminder.”

Mike Myers, who co-starred in the Shrek films with Murphy, credited him with helping define one of animation’s most beloved characters, calling his character portrayal of Donkey a “masterpiece.”

Jennifer Hudson delivered a musical tribute with performances from Dreamgirls, backed by a house band led by Rickey Minor.

The gala, which raised more than $2.5 million to support AFI’s nonprofit education programs, also included the presentation of the Franklin J. Schaffner Alumni Medal to cinematographer Autumn Durald Arkapaw, who spoke about finding her voice through the institute.

Murphy’s career has spanned nearly 50 years, from stand-up stages to blockbuster films, with a versatility that has kept him relevant across generations. In 2023, he received the Cecil B. DeMille Award at the Golden Globes and has spoken about embracing a deeper appreciation for his journey.
