Macy Gray is returning to Australia for her most expansive tour of the region to date, announcing 21 dates across metropolitan and regional cities this spring.

The Encore Tour — Back by Popular Demand kicks off at Melbourne’s Hamer Hall on Sept. 11 and winds through South Australia, Victoria, New South Wales, Tasmania, Queensland and Western Australia before closing at Ocean’s Winery in Margaret River on Oct. 24.

The run includes cities Gray has not previously visited in Australia, among them Shepparton, Albury, Thirroul, Tamworth, Erina, Shoal Bay, Rockhampton, Coffs Harbour and Port Macquarie. Pre-sale tickets are available from June 1 at 9 a.m. local time for venue and ticket outlet database members, with general sale opening June 3 at 9 a.m. local time via macygraylive.com.au.

The tour follows a sold-out Australian run in 2024. “Australia! The band and I have always had a ball down under, and we can’t wait to see you all again,” Gray said in a statement.

“This time, I’m heading to places I’ve never been before and will get to see so much more of your beautiful country. We’re going to be performing all the songs you want to hear, plus a few from my new album — The Trouble with the Truth. Australia will be the first audiences to hear tracks from the new album live so get your dancing shoes ready and come along and party with us at a show near you!”

Gray broke through internationally in 1999 with “I Try,” which peaked at No. 5 on the Billboard Hot 100, hit No. 1 in Australia, Ireland and New Zealand, and won Best Female Pop Vocal Performance at the 2001 Grammy Awards — where it was also nominated for Record of the Year and Song of the Year.

Her debut album On How Life Is sold more than seven million copies worldwide. She has since released ten studio albums, won one Grammy from five nominations, and sold more than 25 million records worldwide. In addition to her music career, Gray has appeared in films including Training Day and Spider-Man.

Bad Bunny kicked off his 10-date Madrid residency at a completely sold-out Riyadh Air Metropolitano on Saturday (May 30) with a journey through Debí Tirar Más Fotos and some of the biggest hits in his catalog. Over more than two-and-a-half hours, the Puerto Rican superstar alternated among celebratory moments, cultural references and expressions of gratitude to a crowd that accompanied him song after song.

“It feels good to be here in Madrid,” he said during the first moments of the show. “Tonight, we’re going to sing a lot of songs we haven’t sung before. I hope you’re ready.” The statement set the tone for a night in which Bad Bunny allowed himself to reflect on different stages of his career, while the audience turned practically every chorus into a massive sing-along. The setlist included hits like “La Mudanza,” “Callaíta,” “Turista,” “Tití Me Preguntó,” “Me Porto Bonito,” “Yonaguni” and “Dákiti,” with the crowd maintaining their energy throughout the entire evening.

During several moments of the show, the star reminded the audience that it had been almost 10 years since he last performed in Madrid. His previous concert in Spain’s capital city was on July 14, 2018, at what was then the WiZink Center. The artist took the opportunity to thank those who have supported him since the beginning of his career.

“Coming back to Madrid and performing like this fills my heart,” he said before dedicating a few words to the fans who believed in him “from day one.” Later on, he insisted: “I will always remember this night as the night I came back to Madrid. Thank you for waiting for me for so long.”

One of the most special moments came during his segment in “La Casita” (his famous second stage built like a Puerto Rican house), where he spent several minutes interacting with fans in the front rows. The artist chatted with attendees, listened to their stories and took photos while the rest of the stadium watched every exchange attentively. Five fans were selected to join him after repeating the now-iconic phrase “Acho, PR es otra cosa” (“Puerto Rico is something else”), a ritual that has become one of the most recognizable parts of the show. Among the guests who passed through La Casita were actresses Esther Expósito and María León, as well as Italian entrepreneur and influencer Chiara Ferragni.

Another highly anticipated moment came with “Adivino,” the show’s traditional “exclusive song.” The surprise was revealed when Myke Towers appeared on stage to perform the track alongside Bad Bunny, sparking one of the night’s biggest ovations. Towers remained onstage for several more minutes and treated the crowd to a medley of hits, including “Diosa,” “Si Se Da,” “Lala” and “La Falda.”

Puerto Rico was ever-present throughout the night, from the participation of Los Pleneros de la Cresta to the artist’s constant references to his island. The audience was filled with pavas (traditional Puerto Rican hats), scarves, cayenne flowers and flags from various Latin American countries. “Just for today, we are all Puerto Ricans,” Benito said during one of the most celebrated moments of the concert.

“I’m ready to spend the next three weeks here,” he added later. The Madrid residency is part of the first leg of the Debí Tirar Más Fotos World Tour, which began on November 21-22 in Santo Domingo, Domican Republic. According to Billboard Boxscore data, the tour has already surpassed $200 million in revenue and is among the most successful of the year.

Frankie Valli & The Four Seasons will no longer be touring this year due to the singer’s health.

Valli, who turned 92 in May, canceled all remaining tour dates for 2026 in an announcement that went out heading into the weekend.

“I’m so sorry to disappoint the folks who have purchased tickets to my shows, but I have decided to take the rest of the year off from touring to focus on my health,” Valli wrote in a statement published on the group’s Instagram account on Friday (May 29).

“I’m looking forward to getting healthy and seeing you all again soon,” he added in his statement. “Thank you for all your good wishes.”

Valli did not provide further details about the unspecified health concerns.

But he has kept busy performing throughout the past few years on The Last Encores Tour, the group’s farewell run that started in 2023 and had most recently been extended through late 2026. He was expected to appear in select U.S. markets in June and July, followed by a string of dates in September through November.

In an interview with Tucson, Arizona’s 94.9 MIX FM radio station in February, he explained why he heads out on the road still, many decades into his career: “Be loyal to what you’re doing and love what you’re doing. If you’re doing it out of fame or with the hope of becoming famous. it’s really the wrong approach. You should be doing it out of the fact that you love and it and it’s the most important thing in your life. If I had not become successful I’d probably still be working in some little bar. I love music that much.”

Last year, Valli was honored with a lifetime achievement award at the Recording Academy’s Special Merit Awards, though he’d never won a Grammy — and despite charting five No. 1 hits on the Billboard Hot 100 with The Four Seasons, dating back to 1962 with “Sherry,” which launched at the top after Dick Clark introduced it on American Bandstand, and two as a solo performer, including the 1978 title track for Grease. “This has been an incredible evening,” he said at the ceremony, quipping, “I don’t know what took so long, but that’s the way it goes.”

Charlie Puth‘s night at Madison Square Garden featured a handful of big names as surprise guests, and Billboard was on the ground to capture some of those moments on video.

Puth headlined the famed New York City concert venue Friday night (May 29) as part of his Whatever’s Clever World Tour, which kicked off just over a month ago in support of his 2026 Whatever’s Clever! album. The show saw him welcome Art Garfunkel, Jimmy Fallon, Busta Rhymes and Kirk Franklin to the stage to perform with him during a 23-song set.

First surprise of the show: an appearance from Art Garfunkel for a heartfelt duet with Puth on Simon & Garfunkel’s “The Boxer,” a Hot 100 top 10 hit in 1969 that was a track on the duo’s final studio album, Bridge Over Troubled Water. “He learned how to make his records from me and Paul,” Garfunkel told the New York crowd on Friday. “You’re my student.”

Puth agreed: “I am your student. I’m not just saying that because all these wonderful people are here. The reason that I’m here right now is because of the music you’ve written with Paul. It’s amazing.”

Midway through Puth’s set, Jimmy Fallon, wearing sunglasses, joined the singer for an ’80s hit, Toto’s “Africa” — their biggest single, a No. 1 on the chart in 1983. After sharing a quick hug, Fallon presented the night’s star with a custom New York Rangers jersey with “PUTH” and the number 26 across its back.

Keeping the mid-show energy on the rise, the next unexpected guest on Puth’s stage was Busta Rhymes bringing a classic from the early 2000s, “Break Ya Neck,” and one from the late ’90s, “Put Your Hands Where My Eyes Could See” — plus a slightly more recent hit, “Look at Me Now,” the 2011 Chris Brown single Busta featured on alongside Lil Wayne.

The rapper closed with leading the city in a round of cheers for his host: “New York City, please make some noise for our brother, your brother, the incredible Charlie Puth.”

Even more entertainment was to come. Kirk Franklin arrived to give spirited performances with Puth of two of his own songs, “I Smile” and “Lean On Me,” and a cover of gospel group God’s Poperty’s “Stomp.”

Puth’s tour continues Saturday night (May 30) in Atlantic City, N.J., before heading south. He’s set to perform across the U.S. through mid-June, then head overseas for a European leg.

Morgan Wallen ran into some technical difficulties during the Denver stop of his Still the Problem tour on Friday night (May 29).

While seated at the piano to perform “Sand In My Boots” during the first of two shows at Empower Field at Mile High, the 33-year-old country superstar appeared frustrated after seemingly being unable to hear the instrument properly.

Wearing a Colorado Rockies Todd Helton jersey over a black shirt, matching shorts and a backward hat, Wallen abruptly stood up mid-performance and finishing the song a cappella and then went back and pushed the piano over. “Sand In My Boots” topped Billboard’s Country Airplay chart in February 2022.

Fans seemed to embrace the candid moment, with many praising Wallen’s solo vocal performance in the comments section of an Instagram post featuring fan-captured footage of the incident.

“No piano needed..give it up!! Sound better without it!!” one person wrote. “Imagine he’s giving us this beautiful Acapella solo and all he’s thinking about is pushing that pos piano over,” another commented “This man doesn’t need any background music when he is unplugged. He is the ultimate a acappella singer,” a third commented.

As has become tradition on the tour, the “Last Night” singer opened Friday’s show with a walkout appearance alongside legendary Denver Broncos quarterback John Elway.

The concert also featured opening performances from Brooks & Dunn, Gavin Adcock and Zach John King.

Wallen is set to return to Empower Field at Mile High for a second Denver performance on Saturday (May 30). After that, he’ll head to Pittsburgh for back-to-back shows at Acrisure Stadium on June 5-6. The singer currently has multiple U.S. stadium dates scheduled through August.

Wallen is touring in support of his latest studio album, I’m the Problem, which debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 in May 2025. The project went on to spend 13 nonconsecutive weeks atop the chart.

An upcoming celebration of America’s 250th anniversary, Freedom 250 Presents: The Great American State Fair, recently had several musical guests back out because of the event’s connections to President Donald Trump. Now, Trump himself is slated to headline the festivities, event organizers said Saturday (May 30).

“I understand Artists are getting ‘the yips’ having to do with their performance,” Trump posted to his social media platform Truth Social on Saturday, adding that he was thinking of bringing “the man who some say is the Greatest President in History (THE GOAT!), DONALD J. TRUMP, to take the place of these highly paid, Third Rate ‘Artists.’”

The group organizing the June fair on Washington’s National Mall, Freedom 250, confirmed the billing in a statement, writing, “We are excited to announce that President Trump will personally kick off this historic celebration.”

Trump’s social media post twice referenced the event as being “Wednesday,” though the fair doesn’t start until June 25. The White House did not immediately clarify the discrepancy.

Danielle Alvarez, a spokesperson for Freedom 250, emphasized the broader fair that will run through July 10 includes an array of exhibits, family-friendly attractions, musical performances, flyovers and more.

Freedom 250 is billed as nonpartisan, but was launched last year by Trump and is led by a former State Department appointee from Trump’s first term. Several artists, including Bret Michaels, the Commodores and Martina McBride dropped out last week.

Michaels and other artists have said that they were misled about the theme of the shows, or were otherwise wary of being caught up in a political fight.

Other artists plan to attend, including Flo Rida, Fab Morvan of Milli Vanilli and Vanilla Ice. The latter’s representative previously said that the “Ice Ice Baby” rapper was “proud to help celebrate America’s 250th Anniversary!”

President Donald Trump on Saturday (May 30) branded the federal judge who blocked his renovation of the Kennedy Center as “an anti Trump Hater” and predicted that the nation’s premier performing arts center he wanted to shutter for a two-year overhaul will “soon be closed, probably never to open again.”

In a lengthy post on his Truth Social platform, Trump fumed about the Friday decision from U.S. District Judge Christopher Cooper, who also ordered Trump’s name removed from the center. Clearly angered by his latest legal setback, Trump said it was “impossible for me to be treated fairly,” tying Cooper’s ruling to earlier losses, including the Supreme Court’s rejection in February of his sweeping tariffs.

His post aimed to make the case for the project but did not clarify whether he would continue to defend it in court. Hours after Cooper’s decision, Trump said he was backing away from the renovations and making arrangements to relinquish control to Congress of what, until the Republican president’s second term, had been known as the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts.

The White House did not immediately clarify his position or say whether he would keep serving as the center’s board chairman.

Trump’s earlier post signaling a retreat from the center gave hope to artists who had been alienated by his takeover, said Norm Eisen, a former White House ethics lawyer who is involved in a lawsuit challenging Trump’s Kennedy Center plans.

“I have already heard from artists and from audience members alike who are excited about the Kennedy Center returning to non-partisan normality,” Eisen told The Associated Press in a text message on Saturday. “It’s early days yet but as and when the court’s order is implemented, including Trump’s name coming off the building and the Board otherwise complying with the law, I’m optimistic that the Center will begin the long journey back.”

Trump cites judge’s wife

Without offering evidence, Trump suggested that Cooper’s wife, lawyer Amy Jeffress, was to blame in part for the ruling. The president noted that Jeffress, a partner at the Hecker Fink law firm, is a former federal prosecutor who served as a counselor to Attorney General Eric Holder during the administration of Democratic President Barack Obama. Cooper was nominated for the bench by Obama.

Trump also noted that Hecker Fink is representing former President Joe Biden in a lawsuit against the Department of Justice to block the release of audio recordings and transcripts from the Democrat’s interviews with a ghostwriter that were obtained in an investigation into Biden’s handling of classified documents from his time as a senator and as vice president.

Trump asserted that the Kennedy Center, named for the late Democratic president and opened in 1971, was “rusted, rotted, and rat and bug infested” and that the ”new Building would have been incomparable.”

Cooper said in his ruling that the center board’s March 16 vote to close the venue was “ill-informed and seemingly preordained” with no regard for its legal obligations. The administration had announced the work would begin in July and last approximately two years. Cooper’s ruling halts those plans for now.

The judge also found that the board “overstepped its statutory bounds” by adding Trump’s name to the center. Congress gave the Kennedy Center its name, and only Congress can change it, he said. Cooper ordered that Trump’s name be removed within two weeks.

President defends adding name to the center

Trump on Saturday said it was the board, not him, that added the Trump name to the center. “They thought it would be good for this dying Institution,” he wrote.

Shortly after returning to office in January 2025, he ousted the center’s previous leadership and replaced it with a handpicked board of trustees that named him chairman.

Cooper held hearings in late April for parallel lawsuits challenging the project. One lawsuit was filed by a group of cultural and historic preservation organizations. The other was brought by Rep. Joyce Beatty, an Ohio Democrat who serves as an ex officio member of the board through her position in Congress. He ruled in favor of Beatty’s request but rejected the other challenge.

Trump, in his post, also noted that Jeffress’ firm represented E. Jean Carroll, the longtime advice columnist whose claims against Trump won her a $5 million award in 2023 for sexual abuse and defamation after a jury agreed that Trump sexually abused her in a New York department store dressing room in 1996. Another jury in 2024 awarded Carroll an additional $83 million for defamation. Both awards are under appeal.

Jeffress did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

Clive Davis has been hospitalized following an upper respiratory issue.

The legendary music executive, 94, was admitted to a New York City hospital on Friday (May 29), Billboard has confirmed. A representative for Davis told TMZ that he is being treated for an upper respiratory infection and was admitted to the hospital out of an abundance of caution.

He is expected to be released within the next 24 hours.

The hospitalization comes just days after Davis attended the Gordon Parks Foundation Awards Dinner and Auction in New York City, Page Six reports.

The iconic label boss, who helped shape the careers of artists including Whitney Houston, Bruce Springsteen, Aretha Franklin, Janis Joplin, Carlos Santana and Alicia Keys, has faced health challenges in the past. In February 2021, Davis postponed his annual pre-Grammy gala after being diagnosed with Bell’s palsy, a temporary condition that causes weakness or paralysis in facial muscles.

“He’s being treated with antibiotics and steroids and will make a full recovery within six to eight weeks, at which point he plans to host the second installment of the virtual pre-Grammy gala,” Davis’ rep said at the time.

Davis’ star-studded pre-Grammy gala has been held on the eve of the Grammy Awards each year since 1976.

A four-time Grammy winner and Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductee, Davis is widely regarded as one of the most influential executives in modern music history. After entering the music business in the 1960s, he became president of Columbia Records in 1967 at age 35. Over a career spanning more than six decades, he held executive roles at CBS Records, founded Arista Records and J Records, later led RCA Music Group, and most recently held the title of chief creative officer at Sony Music Entertainment.

Looking outside his Istanbul hotel room, all John Burton has seen is yachts, submarines and oil tankers cruising off the Sea of Marmara’s coast.

After getting Ye (formerly Kanye West) back on the road in January to kick off his comeback with a pair of sold-out Mexico City shows in front of 80,000 fans at Monumental Plaza de Toros — his first concerts in Mexico in nearly two decades — Burton has West on the brink of performing the largest show of his career on May 30 at Istanbul’s Atatürk Olympic Stadium in Turkey.

As of our Memorial Day interview, Burton estimates that 90,000 tickets have been sold and he expects to cruise past the six-figure mark to about 120,000 tickets, which he’s billed as the “Road to 100K” campaign. “I was like, ‘We got something, let’s continue to do this around the world,’” he recalls after seeing the success of Ye’s Mexico City’s shows.

Burton, 43, launched Access Opera in 2017 as a production and management company for opera singers, who he refers to as “athletes of the voice” and classical events. He now serves as Ye’s agent handling overseas touring, independently booking his Mexico City and Turkey shows as well as a handful of upcoming European dates this summer.

“The Road to 100k is a way bigger statement than just the capacity,” Burton adds. “It opens up a lot of opportunity for independent promoters that necessarily wouldn’t have access to an artist like this.”

Like Ye, Burton’s a Southside of Chicago native and has been in the G.O.O.D. Music ethos since a teenager while growing up a super fan of Roc-A-Fella.

He worked for longtime Ye affiliate and streetwear designer Don C, served as the executive assistant to John Monopoly, who’s held lengthy stints as West’s manager and then got his own management chops as Consequence’s road manager for multiple tours in the 2000s.

Burton reconnected with Yeezy in 2019 after seeing him at a party where West asked him to come produce his upcoming operas after hearing about his business venture. Burton would helm operations for Nebuchadnezzar and Mary later that year, while also running point on the children’s choir for Ye’s Donda school.

By 2024, Burton relocated to Bangkok with his wife and the couple welcomed their first child. On a whim, Burton picked up the phone and called Ye with hopes of him being open to touring Asia in a market he saw oozing with potential opportunities. “I called Ye and said, ‘Do you want to tour?’” he recalls. West had already performed in Seoul and Shanghai in 2024 and 2025.

Burton envisioned plotting something similar to Michael Jackson’s HIStory World Tour in 1996 to 1997, which boasted 82 dates across Europe, Asia and Africa, while MJ opted not to hit the continental U.S. as he only performed a pair of shows in Hawaii.

Ye has been open about struggles to book U.S. dates following his string of controversies, including repeated hate speech and antisemitic remarks since 2022. The destruction blew up lucrative deals with adidas, Universal Music Group, Gap and Balenciaga, as companies distanced themselves from the mercurial star.

Ye’s made efforts on his road to forgiveness in recent months. West met with a rabbi in November and took out a full-page ad to pen a letter in The Wall Street Journal in January, which saw him apologize to the Jewish and Black communities for his hurtful actions.

Yeezy has avoided major controversy for the first six months of the year as he continues to seek reconciliation and make things right with those he hurt.

As for Burton, he disagreed with how Ye communicated his message in recent years, but backed his intentions as someone whose known West going on two decades. “I think he could have been articulated a lot differently, and he could have driven the point home if it was more diplomatic,” he explains. “But I believe that the sentiments behind it are spot the f—k on.”

Not everyone else was as quick to forgive West. After releasing his Bully album in March via Larry Jackson’s Gamma label, which debuted at No. 2 on the Billboard 200, Ye was booked to headline three nights of Wireless Fest in London this summer. However, he was denied a travel visa by U.K. government officials, which led to the festival’s cancelation in April.

Other European countries followed suit, as Poland and Switzerland canceled shows due to his antisemitic past. Ye went ahead and postponed his France stop in Marseille indefinitely. West’s July 18 concert with Travis Scott in Italy was also reportedly canceled on Friday (May 29).

The seeds for Turkey’s show were planted across the world in Mexico City when Burton invited ILS Vision founder Erdem Karahan to the pair of Mexico City concerts in January. Karahan bought in and will serve as the promoter for West’s return to the stage in Istanbul on Saturday (May 30). “I was like, ‘We got something, let’s continue to do this around the world,’” Burton adds.

The gates to North America were opened after Mexico City for West as well, who booked a pair of concerts on April 1 and April 3 at SoFi Stadium on the heels of Bully, which went on to be Ye’s first shows in Los Angeles since 2021.

Ye’s return to L.A. grossed a staggering $32.6 million across 149,000 tickets sold, according to Billboard Boxscore. “He’s the Michael Jordan of this thing,” Burton says of West’s place in the rap game and lucrative touring prospects over 20 years into his career.

The two L.A. shows were presented by Rod Wave’s Mainstay Touring, which is backed by Live Nation. According to a release from the company, Live Nation posted a revenue of $25.2 billion in 2025.

Yeezy arrived in Turkey on Thursday (May 28) to plenty of fanfare. Preparations continued throughout the week to bring his globe-shaped stage to Atatürk Olympic Stadium. According to a press release, West’s return to Turkey — which marks his first show in the country in 11 years — is expected to generate nearly $100 million in tourism revenue through hotels, transportation, dining and tourist spending.

YE IN TURKEY will be streamed live on West’s YouTube channel. The Chicago native is set to hit the stage around 2 p.m. ET.

For Burton, he’s already got his sights set on booking more shows for Ye across Europe amid the handful of cancelations.

Yeezy will head to the Netherlands for a pair of dates on June 6 and June 8, before returning to the U.S. for two shows in Tampa Bay at Raymond James Stadium on June 26 and June 28. July currently has concerts set in Albania (July 7) and Madrid (July 20), while he’ll head to Portugal to close out the mini European tour on Aug. 7.

“This opens up the conversation for what artists can do independently for our culture, and there are unlimited seats at this independent table,” Burton proclaims. “We just want to be a production agency that’s a part of the conversation.”

He continues: “We’re not trying to say, ‘We Death Row come over here.’ But what we are saying is that if you want an opportunity, we can provide it at scale and we can be doing it with the biggest artists in the world.”

Is Taylor Swift involved in Toy Story 5? Fans are beginning to wonder after a mysterious “TS” billboard promoting the upcoming film appeared to offer some clues.

On Friday (May 29), a cryptic billboard featuring the initials “TS” were unveiled against the Disney/Pixar franchise’s iconic blue sky and white cloud backdrop. Swifties quickly took notice, with eagle-eyed fans counting 13 clouds on the display and speculating that the number could be a nod to Swift’s famously lucky number.

“13 clouds and ‘TS’? one fan wrote on X. “Swifties know that can’t be a coincidence. The theories are about to go crazy.”

Speculation intensified on Saturday (May 30) when Pixar shared an image of the billboard on social media, accompanied by an image of Toy Story character Jessie showing off some dance moves atop the outdoor display.

“She’s making those moves up as she goes!” Pixar captioned the Instagram post, a line that many fans interpreted as a lyrical reference to Swift’s 2014 hit “Shake It Off.”

“I’m dancin’ on my own (dancin’ on my own)/ I make the moves up as I go (moves up as I go),” Swift sings on the track, which spent four weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart.

“SHAKE IT OFF REFERENCE, TAY STORY IS HAPPENING!!!” one Swiftie wrote in the comments.

“A NEW TAYLOR SWIFT SONG IN TOY STORY 5 IS ACTUALLY THE CURE TO HEAL MILLENNIALS,” another added.

“THE DISNEY SWIFTIE ADULTS ARE LIVING FOR THIS!!!” a third commented.

Adding to the intrigue, the cover art for 1989 (Taylor’s Version) on Apple Music, Spotify and other streaming platforms appeared to have been updated at press time, with the original seagulls in the background replaced by clouds.

Billboard has reached out to Swift’s representatives for comment.

Earlier this week, Pixar announced that Bad Bunny has joined the voice cast of Toy Story 5 as a character named “Pizza with Sunglasses.”

The upcoming installment reunites several longtime franchise favorites, including Tom Hanks as Woody, Tim Allen as Buzz Lightyear and Joan Cusack as Jessie. The animated movie follows the toys as they confront modern technology and compete for Bonnie’s attention against a high-tech device named Lilypad.

Toy Story 5 is scheduled to arrive in theaters on June 19.
