Olivia Rodrigo and Chappell Roan are hot to go as Olivia invites the pop sensation onstage at her Guts Tour. Chappell Roan once was one of Olivia’s opening acts, but what happens when Olivia asks her to return? She got what she wanted. The two treated the LA crowd at the brand-new Intuit Dome to “HOT TO GO!” after taking the time to teach the choreo that, of course, everybody already knew. Olivia’s LA shows are her last in the U.S. before heading overseas. We recently caught Chappell at Lollapalooza during her string of massively successful festival dates.

As Taylor wraps up the European leg of her Eras Tour with nine more winter shows in Canada,we’re taking a look back at some of her other tours and the artists who opened for Taylor throughout the years. Back in 2009 Taylor Swift was going out for her first headlining tour, The Fearless Tour. And she invited a then up and coming Canadian singer who was on a fast rise to becoming a superstar, Justin Bieber. The two even filmed a video backstage trying to figure out why Justin’s foot was in a cast during the tour.

Taylor Swift

What happened Justin?

Justin Bieber: 

When you told me to break a leg, I couldn’t break a leg, but I broke my foot for you. 

In 2013 Taylor set out on the Red Tour with a host of supporting acts, including her close friend and frequent collaborator, Ed Sheeran. Taylor brought Ed out as a surprise guest on her 1989 World Tour a couple years later, and at one of her final era shows in London. In 2015, Taylor was heading out on one of her biggest tours, the 1989 World Tour. She invited another Canadian pop star to join her on that trip, Shawn Mendes. Shawn revealed to Billboard’s Melinda Newman what advice Taylor gave him while they were on tour together. 

Are you nervous? And I was like, yeah. She goes, why?

Tetris Kelly:

Billie Eilish is the queen of Spotify while getting real about her song “Lunch.” Billie is officially the most streamed monthly artist on Spotify. She took the title from The Weeknd, who posted on X last week, “Let’s go!” when he found out she was less than a million listeners away from his top spot. She posted the achievement on IG saying, “number 1 in the world on spotify i really can’t even believe this. i love you all so much this is the craziest thing ever.” It’s no surprise after performing at the closing ceremonies at the Olympics and topping both the Global 200 and Global Excluding US with her hit, “BIRDS OF A FEATHER.” But it’s her song “Lunch” that she’s talking about now. She said in her VEVO Footnotes that the hardest part of the shoot was eating from the giant table of food. She would later take a bite and spit it out, but not until she was full from actually eating all of it. Well, she was the director, so it was all up to her. But at least it turned out great.

Anitta is set to headline the NFL’s first game in São Paulo during the halftime show. Here’s what she had to say about the upcoming performance!

Tetris Kelly:
The NFL is headed to Brazil, and they picked the perfect artist to help kick off their South American Expansion. Anitta has been tapped to perform the halftime show at the first NFL game in São Paulo on Sept. 6. 

Anitta told Billboard Español, “Growing up here has completely shaped me as an artist and, of course, as a person. So, it means everything to be able to bring fans around the world the excitement and joy of our amazing music and culture. It’s really a dream come true to be a part of this moment.”

While this may be Anitta’s first American football performance, she knows a thing or two about performing at a fútbol game. But now, she’s ready to hit the gridiron. She said, “Music is something that brings us all together, no matter where you’re from or what your background is. Football does the same, so I think that uniting force from both music and football creates a natural connection to the audience.”

As for what to expect come Sept. 6, she said, “I can tell you I will perform Brazilian funk!”

Other singers taking part in this historic day will be Luisa Sonza singing the Brazilian national anthem and Zeeba, who will sing the U.S. national anthem.
