Fresh from her historic performance at the first FIFA World Cup halftime show on Sunday (July 19), Shakira kept the party going Monday (July 20) at the Barclays Center, where she brought the stadium energy to the Brooklyn arena for a stellar night that included Tyla, Ed Sheeran and Burna Boy as surprise guests.

Part of the second leg of her record-breaking Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran World Tour in the U.S., the words “World Cup Edition” were added to the title on the big screen at the back of the stage before the Colombian superstar appeared with her dancers to kick off the first of two nights at the venue.

“What a day yesterday at the finals!” she said, referring to the match in which Spain defeated Argentina 1–0 and was crowned champion. “Well, today I’m pumped, so I’m gonna give you all I got. Because there’s nothing like when a she-wolf is back with her pack. Awooo!” The crowd answered with a deafening roar.

After delighting the audience with staples such as “Estoy Aquí,” “La Bicicleta” and “La Tortura,” Shakira presented her first guest of the night: South African singer and songwriter Tyla, with whom she performed her 2006 Billboard Hot 100 No. 1 hit “Hips Don’t Lie.” And boy, did the “Queen of Popiano” keep up. Singing and dancing through a catwalk that extended from the stage toward the center of the arena, Tyla — wearing a turquoise dress with fringes that complemented Shakira’s gold outfit — didn’t miss a step of the choreography, moving along with the hostess by her side and about 20 more dancers behind.

Later on, Sheeran appeared for a duet of Shakira’s song “Underneath Your Clothes,” which peaked at No. 9 on the Hot 100 in May 2002. Playing the guitar and taking turns to sing the different verses, the British superstar — casual in black pants, a white T-shirt and sneakers — added sweetness to the ballad, with their voices blending beautifully in harmony.

And, shortly before the night ended, Burna Boy showed up to perform his collaboration with Shakira, “Dai Dai” — the official song of the 2026 FIFA World Cup — and the biggest song on the planet today, topping both the Billboard Global 200 and the Billboard Global Excl. U.S. charts. It was the most cheerful and colorful moment of the night, with the Nigerian singer and the Colombian star — along with her backup dancers — making everyone smile and dance to their irresistible blend of Latin pop, reggaetón, dance-pop and afrobeats.

It was a high that could only be followed by another timeless World Cup anthem: Shakira’s own “Waka Waka (This Time for Africa)” from 2010.

Fresh off its reign atop the Billboard Global 200 and its spotlight turn during the World Cup’s first-ever halftime show, Shakira and Burna Boy’s “Dai Dai (FIFA World Cup Official Song 2026)” adds another win as it vaults 4-1 on the Latin Airplay chart (dated July 25).

The rise delivers Shakira her 25th No. 1 and hands Burna Boy a chart-topper in his first visit.

With “Dai Dai” atop Latin Airplay, Shakira extends her record for the most No. 1s among women in the chart’s 32-year history (J Balvin remains the overall leader with 40 chart-toppers). “Dai Dai” reaches the summit with a 25% gain in audience impressions, to 7.3 million, across the 152 Latin-reporting stations in the United States during the July 10-16 tracking week, according to Luminate.

“Dai Dai” marks Shakira’s return to the summit after more than a year, following the one-week reign of “Soltera” in January 2025. The latter became her first coronation as a solo artist dating to “Loba” in late 2009.

Notably, Burna Boy breaks into the No. 1 spot on any Latin chart coming his first try. The Nigerian singer-songwriter first reached a Billboard ranking through L.I.F.E.: Leaving An Impact For Eternity which hit the top 10 of the Reggae Albums chart. Adding to his overall achievements, “Dai” becomes his second chart-topper of 2026, following his featured run on Gunna’s “wgft,” which led Rhythmic Airplay for four weeks in January.

Since its Billboard debut, “Dai Dai” has collected 10 No. 1s worldwide, now adding Latin Airplay to its list of chart-topping achievements. The song’s global momentum began soon after its premiere at the 2026 FIFA World Cup opening ceremony in Mexico City on June 11.

Here’s a breakdown of “Dai Dai’s” Billboard No. 1s across the globe, by peak date:

Peak Date, Chart, Weeks at No. 1
June 27, Billboard Colombia Hot 100, four
June 27, Switzerland Songs, four
July 4, Billboard Global Excl. U.S., three
July 4, Austria Songs, two
July 11, Billboard Argentina Hot 100, one
July 11, Luxembourg Songs, two
July 18, Billboard Global 200, two
July 18, Germany Songs, one
July 18, Belgium Songs, one
July 25, Latin Airplay, one

“Dai Dai’s” chart domination may continue, even though the World Cup concluded on July 19. Its World Cup final halftime-show performance took place on July 19, during the July 17-23 tracking week, which could lift airplay, streams, and sales globally. At the same time, the song may begin to lose momentum with the final four days of the current tracking period falling after the tournament’s close.

All charts dated July 25, 2026, will update on Billboard.com tomorrow, July 21. For all chart news, you can follow @billboard and @billboardcharts on both X, formerly known as Twitter, and Instagram. Plus, for all chart rules and explanations, click here.

Kane Brown and Kacey Musgraves are heading to Australia for the launch of LONGHAUL, a new country music festival arriving in January 2027.

The inaugural festival will stop in three cities across one weekend, beginning Friday, Jan. 22, at Melbourne Showgrounds, before heading to Sydney Showground on Saturday, Jan. 23, and Brisbane RNA Showgrounds on Sunday, Jan. 24.

Brown and Musgraves will headline the new event in what are billed as their only Australian shows. The lineup also features Charles Wesley Godwin, Margo Price, Maddox Batson, Ava Hall and James Barker Band, alongside Australian artists Beau Shearer, Denvah, Nathan Lamont, Taylor Moss and Tyla Rodrigues.

Presented by LONGHAUL Touring and powered by TEG Live, the festival is entering the market at a time when country music’s Australian audience is becoming harder to ignore. The bill brings together arena-level U.S. names, Americana favorites, emerging international acts and local artists, pointing to a wider version of country than the genre’s traditional festival lane.

“We have been working very hard on this festival concept for a number of years and so it is incredibly exciting to finally launch the inaugural LONGHAUL Festival with an awesome lineup of international and domestic artists, headlined by superstars Kane Brown and Kacey Musgraves,” Tim McGregor, global head of touring at TEG Live, said in a statement.

“LONGHAUL Touring is just getting started with this flagship festival and there is a lot more in the pipeline to share with you all very soon,” McGregor added. “In the meantime we look forward to welcoming fans to LONGHAUL Festival next January for what will be a great summer’s day out in Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane.”

Brown brings major Billboard history to the lineup. In 2017, he became the first artist to top all five of Billboard’s main country charts at the same time, leading Top Country Albums, Hot Country Songs, Country Airplay, Country Digital Song Sales and Country Streaming Songs in the same week.

Musgraves arrives with her own chart and awards résumé. Her 2024 album Deeper Well debuted at No. 1 on Billboard’s Top Album Sales, Top Country Albums, Americana/Folk Albums, Vinyl Albums, Top Current Album Sales and Tastemaker Albums charts. Her 2018 album Golden Hour won album of the year at the 2019 Grammy Awards.

The rest of the bill leans into country’s broad current moment. Godwin has become one of the genre’s fastest-rising live acts, Price remains a key Americana voice, and Batson represents a younger wave of country artists building global audiences online.

Afterpay will serve as the official presale partner for LONGHAUL. The Afterpay presale begins Friday, July 24, at 12 p.m. local time and runs until Monday, July 27, at 12 p.m. local time. Other presales begin Monday, July 27, at 1 p.m. local time, before general tickets go on sale Friday, July 31, at 2 p.m. local time via Ticketek.

Light sticks have become one of the defining accessories at K-pop concerts, turning arenas into coordinated displays of color as fans wave synchronized lights throughout a show. With Netflix officially announcing the KPop Demon Hunters global concert tour, fans can start preparing by picking up the official HUNTR/X and Saja Boys light sticks, along with other themed accessories, ahead of the highly-anticipated shows.

The fan tradition of waving light sticks during K-pop shows even made its way to this year’s Academy Awards during HUNTR/X’s performance of Golden. Audience members, including Emma Stone, Gwyneth Paltrow, Leonardo DiCaprio, Teyana Taylor and Chloé Zhao, were seen waving generic light sticks as the trio performed, bringing one of K-pop’s most recognizable concert traditions to Hollywood’s biggest stage.

Now, you can get your hands on an official KPop Demon Hunters light stick online.

It also features a synchronization mode that connects with other compatible light sticks in range for coordinated lighting effects. Batteries are included, and it’s designed to match the group’s darker demon vibes from the film.

The two light sticks measure just under 10 inches in height and are an officially-licensed release from Netflix and toymaker, Hasbro. The KPop Demon Hunters light sticks come ahead of a new concert tour inspired by the film, though exact dates and details have yet to be released.

Of course, you could also pick up the light sticks to bring to one of the upcoming K-pop concerts that have been announced. Light sticks are one concert purchase I recently regretted not buying. At BTS’ Arirang world tour stop at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas, I couldn’t find the highly-coveted orbs at the venue and stuck out like a sore thumb in my section as the only person empty-handed. So, consider this your friendly reminder to order the band’s official light stick before concert day — and don’t make the same mistake I did.

As for KPop Demon Hunters, you can also prep for the tour — or a sing-along night at home — with these wigs inspired by the HUNTR/X girls.

The soundtrack to the hit TV series Heated Rivalry debuts at No. 8 on the Billboard 200 albums chart (dated July 25) following the release of its CD and vinyl editions on July 10. It debuts with 41,000 equivalent album units (all from album sales) earned in the United States in the week ending July 17, according to Luminate.

It also debuts atop the Vinyl Albums, Indie Store Album Sales and Soundtracks charts, and at No. 2 on Top Album Sales. All charts dated July 25 will post to Billboard’s website on July 21.

Heated Rivalry marks the first soundtrack from a TV series to debut in the Billboard 200 top 10 in more than a decade. The last was the season 1 soundtrack to Fox’s Empire in 2015, which debuted at No. 1. Since Empire, the only other TV series soundtrack to reach the top 10 was the season 2 soundtrack of Prime Video’s animated hit Hazbin Hotel, which peaked at No. 8, after debuting at No. 70 a week earlier, in 2025. (There have been non-series TV soundtracks that have debuted in the top 10 in that span, including Disney Channel’s Descendants 3 movie in 2019.)

The Heated Rivalry soundtrack was issued physically on two color vinyl variants and a two-CD set. The vinyl releases contain songs featured in the show (including t.A.T.u.’s “All the Things She Said,” Wolf Parade’s “I’ll Believe in Anything” and Feist’s “My Moon My Man”), along with highlights of Peter Peter’s original score for the series. The CD edition expands the track list to include Peter Peter’s full score alongside the songs. Both the vinyl and CD pressings include a fold-out posters and liner notes by show creator Jacob Tierney, while the vinyl also houses a pair of collectible trading cards.

The vinyl editions of Heated Rivalry sold a combined 28,000 copies in its opening week — the largest sales week on vinyl for a soundtrack in 2026.

Heated Rivalry premiered on the Canadian streamer Crave on Nov. 28, 2025 and debuted the same day in the United States on HBO Max. The show stars Connor Storrie and Hudson Williams as hockey rivals Ilya Rozanov and Shane Hollander, who navigate a secret romance. The series was adapted from Rachel Reid’s hit Game Changers book series. Its six-episode first season concluded on Dec. 26. The show has been renewed for a second season.

Offset has been granted probation for allegedly attacking a security guard at a Los Angeles cannabis dispensary last year.

Last Wednesday (July 15), a judge in California state court entered a so-called diversion order that postpones Offset’s misdemeanor battery prosecution for one year. If the rapper (born Kiari Cephus) complies with all requirements, including completing community service and attending an anger management program, the criminal case will be dismissed and wiped from his record.

Offset was accused of striking security guard Jim Leobardo Sanchez in the face after being asked to provide an I.D. to enter a MedMen licensed recreational dispensary in March 2025. Sanchez brought a civil assault lawsuit against Offset in November, and prosecutors in the Los Angeles City Attorney’s Office leveled a misdemeanor charge in December.

The former Migos rapper has denied Sanchez’s claims, which remain pending in civil court. He pleaded not guilty to the criminal count, and he has not admitted any wrongdoing as part of last week’s probation order.

In addition to community service and anger management, the diversion program requires Offset to stay away from the MedMen location near Los Angeles International Airport, refrain from any violent behavior or threats, and make financial restitution to Sanchez. His prosecution could be reinstated if he violates any of these provisions within the next year.

Offset is set to appear in court for a progress report this November.

Reps for Offset, Sanchez and the LA City Attorney’s Office did not immediately return requests for comment on Monday (July 20).

Burna Boy granted fans an all-access pass to one of the biggest performances of his career, and Billboard had a front-row seat.

In a new behind-the-scenes video diary for Billboard, the genre-blending artist takes viewers through every single step of his day as he prepared to perform at the inaugural FIFA World Cup Final halftime show on Sunday. From a police escort at the beginning of the day to the adrenaline of stepping on the field at New Jersey’s MetLife Stadium for the halftime show, the video transparently showcases a timeline of all the moments that led up to and followed his high-profile performance.

Along the way, Burna shares several memorable interactions. He poses for photos with collaborator Shakira, with whom he teamed up for the official 2026 FIFA World Cup anthem “Dai Dai.” The song — which the duo performed during Sunday’s halftime — spends a second week atop the Billboard Global 200 and a fourth week at No. 1 on the Billboard Global Excl. U.S. chart. Burna also meets up with streamer iShowSpeed, embraces Justin Bieber in a hug, and even greets Ted Lasso star Jason Sudeikis, who made an unannounced cameo to introduce Bieber. After making his rounds, Burna squeezes in one final practice session right before taking the stage.

The camera follows Burna stepping onto the field, capturing the celebration. Burna is all smiles as the performance comes to an end, entering the players’ tunnel to return backstage and receiving praise from Chris Martin, who curated the halftime show and co-wrote the song “We Dance” with his Coldplay bandmates for the finale.

 J. Cole‘s The Fall-Off World Tour has gotten off to an auspicious start.

Last week during the tour’s second stop in Miami, a couple got engaged as he was performing “Life Sentence,” one of the latest cuts from his most recent album The Fall-Off, which is dedicated to love and marriage despite the song’s title. “What’s up, baby girl? What’s up, my boy? God bless y’all,” the rapper said once he caught wind of their engagement. “That’s f—ing beautiful. Y’all make some noise for them, man.”

There was also another couple who were getting married the day after the show at Miami’s Kaseya Center and had their seats upgraded by Cole’s team and invited him and his manager Ibrahim Hamad to the wedding. “Aye @KingOfQueenz @JColeNC we just wanna say thank you for tonight’s show in Miami. our original tickets had an ‘obstructed view’ and so y’all upgraded our tickets to the front row,” the fan wrote on X. “Y’all let a bunch of fans since 2010 make a core memory. thank you. my lady and I get married tomorrow at 3pm in Miami if y’all would like to come. shoutout to Cole for showing us love during Life Sentence.”

And now, during the tour’s fourth stop at Atlanta’s State Farm Arena, someone threw their bra onstage as Cole was performing his hit record “Work Out” from his 2011 debut studio album Sideline Story. “N—a ain’t got a bra onstage in a long motherf—in’ time, boy,” he told the crowd as he was laughing in shock. “You gotta cherish that sh–.”

The American leg of Cole’s tour ends in his hometown of Fayetteville, North Carolina, at Crown Coliseum on Sept. 3. He then heads out for the European leg starting Oct. 7 at Uber Arena in Berlin and will end it at Unity Arena in Oslo, Norway, on Nov. 12, so there’s still plenty of time to catch him if you haven’t gotten the chance to already.

Make sure to bring either a bra or an engagement ring — or both.

Taylor Swift attended game 4 of the NBA Finals between the New York Knicks and San Antonio Spurs at Madison Square Garden in June, which saw the Knicks overcome a 29-point deficit for the largest comeback in Finals history. Knicks star Jalen Brunson spoke at Variety’s inaugural Sports & Entertainment Studio last week, during which he showed appreciation for having the pop supernova courtside among the celebrity guests in the crowd.

“It’s really cool having her there,” Brunson said, before bringing up Swift also being courtside for the Eastern Conference Finals in Cleveland. “I feel like her being in Cleveland for courtside one game, obviously, I think Travis and the Kelces are from Ohio, so I get that. And she’s been at the Knicks’ games before.”

He continued: “So, I mean, whoever comes, as long as you’re cheering us on, we appreciate it. And I think that was probably a really good game to come to as well.”

Swift cheered on the Knicks during the historic comeback in game 4 while rocking a “Stevie Knicks” T-shirt alongside HAIM’s Este and Alana Haim as well as actress Mariska Hargitay.

JB and the Knicks ended up disposing of the Spurs in five games to capture the franchise’s first championship in 53 years.

Page Six reported that Brunson and the rest of the Knicks starting five were invited to Swift and Travis Kelce’s wedding. JB didn’t confirm whether or not he was invited, but he did relay that he wasn’t at the star-studded affair.

“It’s a great question,” he said. “I found out the same way the rest of the world did. So, I don’t know if it was true or not, but I did not attend.”

Swift and Kelce tied the knot at Madison Square Garden on July 3 in front of more than 1,000 wedding guests, while Adam Sandler served as the ceremony’s officiant.

Hey, sexy ladies! PSY‘s smash hit “Gangnam Style” is now the first K-pop video to reach a major YouTube milestone.

As of Monday (July 20) — almost exactly 14 years after it was posted on the platform — the humorous, dance-heavy visual has amassed more than 6 billion views. No other music video in the genre has reached those numbers to date, underscoring PSY’s legacy of setting the stage for modern K-pop to cross over into the global mainstream in recent years with acts such as BTS, BLACKPINK and more.

Directed by Cho Soo-Hyun, the video finds the South Korean superstar causing chaos wherever he goes with his signature “Gangnam Style” choreography. A number of now-iconic scenes emerged from the project, including PSY busting a move by himself in a horse stable or singing to the camera while lying between a dancing man’s legs.

Reaching No. 2 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 2012, “Gangnam Style” has long been known as a game-changer. The year it was posted, its music video became the first upload to ever reach a billion views on YouTube, meaning it was the original member of the Billion Views Club that’s now inhabited by Justin Bieber’s “Baby,” Taylor Swift’s “Blank Space,” Ed Sheeran’s “Shape of You” and more pop smashes.

Several other K-pop visuals have also entered the club in the years since PSY kicked it off, including BTS’ “Dynamite” and “Butter” as well as BLACKPINK’s “Pink Venom” and “How You Like That.”

It’s been a few years since PSY dropped an album, releasing PSY 9th in 2022.
