Yungblud’s 2026 Australian Tour Still Moving Ahead Despite Global Cancellations

Trending on Billboard

Yungblud’s 2026 Australian tour dates will move ahead as scheduled, even as the U.K. singer halts all remaining performances for the rest of 2025 due to medical advice.

See latest videos, charts and news

The Doncaster-born artist revealed over the weekend that recent vocal and blood test results prompted doctors to suspend his touring commitments through the end of the year.

The announcement raised questions about his planned Australian run, but Frontier Touring confirms the January shows are unaffected. “Yungblud’s remaining U.S., Mexico and Latin America shows have been cancelled through to the end of 2025, per his statement. The Australian dates in 2026 remain as scheduled,” the promoter said in a message to media.

“We’re looking forward to seeing Yungblud in January and extend our best wishes while he takes some time to rest and recover.”

Posting to Instagram on Nov. 16, Yungblud told fans he had undergone routine tests after returning home from tour, receiving results that required an immediate break. “My voice and blood tests have raised some concerns,” he wrote. “My doctor has ordered me to take a break from touring until the end of the year.”

The singer, who has built a reputation for intensive touring and high-energy performances, acknowledged that slowing down is unfamiliar territory. “It is in my nature to run and run until I run myself to the ground,” he wrote. “But this time I’ve been told I have to take it seriously… I don’t want to do any lasting damage to myself.”

Yungblud’s upcoming Australian dates mark his largest headline shows in the region to date. The tour begins Jan. 10 at Qudos Bank Arena in Sydney, followed by outdoor and arena stops in Melbourne, Adelaide, Brisbane and Perth. A second Brisbane show on Jan. 18 has been added due to demand.

The January run arrives as Yungblud prepares the next phase of his release cycle, following a year marked by festival appearances, international touring and new music previews throughout Europe and North America.

Reba Hits Mic Drop for a Grit-Packed ‘Hurricane’ Knockout Performance

Trending on Billboard

Aaron Nichols secured one of the most coveted spots in The Voice Season 28 Knockouts on Monday night (Nov. 17), earning Team Reba’s “Mic Drop” selection after a commanding performance that cut through an already stacked episode.

See latest videos, charts and news

The Knockouts continued with matchups from Teams Reba McEntire, Michael Bublé, Snoop Dogg and Niall Horan, with mega mentors Joe Walsh and Zac Brown stepping in during rehearsals. The format remains high-stakes: no steals, no saves — just three head-to-head battles for a place in the Playoffs, plus one Mic Drop pick per team. The Mic Drop nominee performs at the Rose Parade, with the final decision left to viewer votes.

This week, that honor went to Nichols, whose rugged tone on “Hurricane” by The Band of Heathens immediately grabbed Reba’s attention. Walsh encouraged Nichols to be more present in the room — “I can’t quite see your eyes,” he said — while Reba noted his command felt seasoned beyond the show.

Nichols faced off against Cori Kennedy, who delivered Lady Gaga’s “You and I” with intense, full-bodied power. Walsh suggested slight phrasing changes, while Bublé praised her natural force: “You walk out and you just destroy.” Snoop Dogg highlighted her dynamic build (“you started off mild then got real hot”), and Horan compared her energy to Stevie Nicks.

But Nichols’ emotive grit ultimately won the round. Reba called him “a seasoned veteran up on the stage” and hit the Mic Drop button, cementing him as her nominee for the Rose Parade performance slot.

This marks the third Mic Drop nomination of the season. In earlier episodes, Bublé selected 14-year-old Max Chambers after his smooth run through Stevie Wonder’s “Don’t You Worry ’Bout a Thing,” and Horan chose DEK of Hearts following their harmony-rich take on Lady A’s “What If I Never Get Over You.”

The Knockouts continue next Monday at 9 p.m. ET/PT on NBC.

Here Are All of Taylor Swift’s Title Tracks, Ranked (Critic’s Picks)

Swift recorded namesake songs for seven of her 12 studio albums.

11/17/2025

Trending on Billboard

With 12 full-lengths under her belt, Taylor Swift has released seven albums that include songs that reflect each album’s name: “Fearless,” “Speak Now,” “Red,” “Lover,” “evermore,” “The Tortured Poets Department” and “The Life of a Showgirl.” Right now, only three – “Fearless,” “Red” and “Lover” – became official singles. The rest linger in the deep cuts, but certainly fan favorites, of her work.

Spanning her career from 2008’s Fearless to 2025’s The Life of a Showgirl – currently enjoying its sixth week atop the Billboard 200 – her title tracks show the breadth and depth of her sonic evolution, from her country roots to her pop superstardom, with her signature storytelling lyricism on display.

(And don’t worry about the five albums without a title track: She shows them love in other ways. Debut doesn’t mention her name, but she later shouts herself out on both “22” from Red and “Clara Bow” from The Tortured Poets Department; 1989 never received a lyrical callback, but her famous introduction to its world tour does: “My name is Taylor and I was born in 1989!”; Reputation tracks “End Game” and “Delicate” as well as Speak Now’s “Superman” reference reputation; evermore’s “gold rush” includes “My mind turns your life into folklore”; and mentions of midnight abound throughout her catalog, but only “Anti-Hero” and “Midnight Rain” from Midnights and Rep’s “New Year’s Day” contain the actual word.)

Read below for Billboard’s ranking of the seven title tracks, as well as their peaks on the Billboard Hot 100. (And check out all of her lead singles ranked and her biggest Billboard hits too.)

The album’s closer – exclusive of the deluxe version – offers a piano-laden ballad of heartbreak and confusion (“I replay my footsteps on each stepping stone / Trying to find the one where I went wrong / Writing letters / Addressed to the fire,” Swift sings) with Justin Vernon’s angsty falsetto floating through the bridge. It’s a gorgeous duet held back only by their superior pairing on “exile” and its quieter existence in the Swift universe.

The grandiose duet reflects on fame and what it takes to rise – and stay on top. “I took her pearls of wisdom, hung them from my neck / I paid my dues with every bruise, I knew what to expect,” Swift states proudly. “Do you wanna take a skate on the ice inside my veins? / They ripped me off like false lashes and then threw me away,” Carpenter lilts with a sweet but vicious edge.

Swift expertly captures the panic of watching someone walk down the aisle to the wrong person in the emotionally charged “Speak Now.” “There’s a silence, there’s my last chance / I stand up with shaky hands, all eyes on me / Horrified looks from everyone in the room / But I’m only lookin’ at you,” she sings with a baited apprehension on the country-rock tune.

U.K. Government to Ban For-Profit Ticket Resale: Report

Trending on Billboard

Europe’s largest music market will soon be announcing a ban on ticket resale for profit, elating music fans while roiling investors in secondary ticketing companies like StubHub and Vivid Seats.

Multiple outlets in the United Kingdom are reporting that the Labour Party government of Prime Minister Keir Starmer will announce a plan to crack down on ticket scalping this week. Outlets like The Guardian are reporting that Starmer’s government had considered capping resale at 30% above a ticket’s original face value, but ultimately opted to ban the resale of tickets above face value following significant pressure from artists and industry groups.

According to The Guardian, ticket holders for popular concerts like Coldplay and Dua Lipa will be able to resell tickets on sites like StubHub and Viagogo, but not charge more than they paid for the tickets. Resale sites would be allowed to charge fees on top of that price, but the fees would be limited and set by regulators. The resale ban would also cover social media sites, which some resale site operators have claimed would serve as fraud-heavy alternatives if markets like StubHub were shut down.

The new regulations will also include purchasing limits on tickets and mandates from the Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) that resale sites like StubHub will be responsible for policing their own platforms.

The news sent the share price for StubHub’s U.S. company, StubHub Holdings, tumbling on Monday (Nov. 17); the stock ultimately closed down 13.8 percent. StubHub has endured a brutal November, with shares down a combined 33% after the company failed to provide a financial forecast for the current quarter.

The publicly traded StubHub Holdings — which owns Viagogo — is a different company from the U.K. StubHub brand. The Competition and Markets Authority forced the firms to split into two companies following the merger of Viagogo and StubHub in 2020.

Representatives for Live Nation applauded the deal, telling Billboard in a statement that “Live Nation fully supports the UK government’s plan to ban ticket resale above face value. Ticketmaster already limits all resale in the UK to face value prices, and this is another major step forward for fans — cracking down on exploitative touting to help keep live events accessible. We encourage others around the world to adopt similar fan-first policies.”

Earlier this month, more than 40 British artists, including Sam Fender, Radiohead and The Cure, sent a public letter to Starmer urging the U.K. prime minister to “stop touts [scalpers] from fleecing fans” and cap the price of resale tickets at face value. The pressure campaign followed a recent CMA study that found U.K. tickets sold on resale sites were typically marked up 50 percent.

NBA YoungBoy Releases Bristling ‘Zero IQ Freestyle’ & Appears to Respond to NLE Choppa

Trending on Billboard

YoungBoy Never Broke Again returned to deliver his “Zero IQ Freestyle” over the weekend, and the Baton Rouge rapper didn’t mince words when addressing some of his exes — and possibly sent a few shots in NLE Choppa’s direction.

YB released an accompanying video shot from the comforts of his Utah mansion. The budget-friendly clip finds a possibly intoxicated YoungBoy dropped off at the front door of his house, before continuing to turn up inside. He flexes plenty of cash and jewelry while moving room to room and even wakes up a sleeping friend with a water bath.

The 26-year-old appears to indirectly reply to NLE Choppa, who fired away at YoungBoy with his 2Pac-influenced “KO” diss track, which saw him claim that YB’s a “poison” to the youth. NBA YoungBoy doesn’t even see Choppa on his level, or as someone worth directly addressing.

“I pull up, I’m thuggin’ and I’m clutchin’, you don’t wan’ see me/ Bi—, you playin’, I shoot the Glock/ I shoot the Glock, you ain’t gon’ beat me,” he raps before seemingly later circling back to Choppa. “Bi—, f— you, you ain’t really 5 and healin’ all with real gang hoes/ Respond to him, he ain’t never ran nothin’ down.”

There were other bars that caught fire on social media, such as YoungBoy airing out a former flame for allegedly sleeping with NBA star Kevin Durant and Ken Carson. “My bi— f—ed Kevin Durant and f—ed Ken Carson/ She gon’ tell me after I turned her up, man, you knowin’ I’m finna whoop this ho,” he spews.

2025 has been another solid year for YoungBoy, who’s coming off the release of his MASA album and his first headlining arena tour, which wrapped up in October.

Omarion Reflects on Intense Celibacy Experience: ‘Now I Look Back, I Be Like Sheesh’

Trending on Billboard

Omarion has spoken about the few years he spent practicing celibacy as part of a spiritual experience.

The B2K singer opened up to Boyz II Men’s Shawn Stockman on his On That Note podcast and said that as a young man, being celibate was an intense experience because of how he was “spiritually searching for strength and personal control over myself and my body.”

“I did it for three years. Now I look back, I be like, sheesh,” he says around the 45-minute mark below. “‘Cause I love women. I love women in all [their] splendor, friendships, best friends, lovers, all that.”

See latest videos, charts and news

He continued, “I think that that’s when I was being introduced to a form of telepathy. Feeling closer to someone even when they’re away. I just had the power to say no to anything. Like yo, if I don’t want to do something, I could stop today. And I think that that’s the power of discipline — [it] really turns your life into just another level. … So I think more than anything that I was just really just practicing discipline of self, and it really served its purpose. I always say I’m one of the few guys that I could turn my discipline on and off, and it’s like it’s a cheat code for certain things. … I really know how to focus and commit to something because of that discipline.”

Omarion has been very open about his intense celibacy experience in the past, previously discussing it last summer during a sit-down with the Know Thyself podcast. “‘Do you want to have a career? Or do you want to be out here making babies?’” Omarion said of his peers at the time allegedly asking him. “And we’re like, ‘Huh?’ You know 15, 16, we’re not thinking about that, but it’s a real thing.”

In other news, Omarion caught up with Zoe Spencer & Jerah Milligan at Billboard’s R&B/Hip-Hop Power Players 2025 back in September and said his new album O2 is on the way.

“I’m so excited, I just announced my collaboration with Create Music Group,” Omarion said. “I got a new album titled O2, and I’m ready to give the world some new music…vibes all the way.”

She Is ‘Moana’: Disney Shares First Look at Catherine Lagaʻaia in Epic Teaser for Live-Action Remake

Trending on Billboard

Disney has finally dropped the official teaser for its live-action remake of Moana, giving fans a long-awaited glimpse at how the once-animated scenery and characters come to life. What can they except you’re welcome?

Posted Monday (Nov. 17), the minute-long trailer waits until the very end to show Catherine Lagaʻaia — the 18-year-old actress tapped to portray the character originally voiced by Auli’i Cravalho — up close. Instead, it weaves shots of Moana running her hand through the ocean and exploring the scenery of the Pacific Islands as she sings “I Am Moana.”

Dwayne Johnson, who will reprise his role as demigod Maui in the live-action film, is only shown momentarily from the back, leaping off a cliff into the water. “I am the girl who loves my island/ I’m the girl who loves the sea/ It calls me,” Laga’aia belts beautifully, the camera zooming in on her face at the end of the trailer as she grabs onto the sails of a ship.

The updated Moana is set to hit theaters July 10, 2026, a full decade after the original animated version premiered. The film was an immediate sensation, as was its music; the soundtrack spent 62 weeks atop the Billboard Soundtracks chart and reached No. 2 on the overall Billboard 200.

Eight years later, Disney released Moana 2, debuting in the top 10 of several Billboard charts with the sequel’s soundtrack. Cravalho voiced the franchise’s titular character in both animated films, but while she does not reprise her breakout role in the live-action, she is on board as an executive producer.

“When I was cast as Moana at 14, it wonderfully changed my life and started my career,” she said in a 2023 Instagram video shortly after the remake was announced. “I am truly honored to pass this baton to the next young woman of Pacific Island descent to honor our incredible Pacific peoples, cultures and communities that help inspire her story. And I look forward to all the beautiful Pacific representation to come.”

Chappell Roan Explains Why She Was ‘Nervous’ for Mexico City Show: ‘I Wasn’t Sure If the Crowd Would Vibe With Me’

Trending on Billboard

Chappell Roan might be a midwest princess, but Mexico City just stole her heart. In a new post on Instagram, the pop star reflected on headlining the Corona Capital festival over the weekend and revealed that — despite feeling anxious ahead of the show — the city welcomed her with open arms.

Sharing photos of her creepy “screaming banshee” getup for her set, Roan wrote on Monday (Nov. 17), “I was quite nervous for mexico city because I wasn’t sure if the crowd would vibe with me.”

The Missouri native went on to explain that she worried she’d stick out “because it’s such a rock leaning festival and I was like will ppl still like me if I’m pop?”

“but omg the crowd was so wonderful and I felt so loved and supported!” Roan added. “So so sick I got to do this thank you for having me … l will continue practicing my Spanish every day. ¡Gracias!”

Roan was indeed the most pop-leaning headliner on the 2025 lineup, splitting the bill with Foo Fighters and Linkin Park. The “Good Luck, Babe!” singer’s set was on Saturday (Nov. 17) following performances from Vampire Weekend, Damiano David, Alabama Shakes and more.

With Corona Capital in the books, Roan now has until February before she’s scheduled to perform again. After playing a string of festival dates in Australia that month, she’ll headline Lollapalooza Brasil and Lollapalooza Chile in March.

Also in February, fans will most likely see Roan attend the 2026 Grammys. As revealed earlier in November, the musician — who won best new artist the year prior — is up for two awards, with Billboard Hot 100 top 10 single “The Subway” picking up nods for record of the year and best pop solo performance.

Tate McRae Reveals Track List for Upcoming ‘So Close to What’ Deluxe Edition

Trending on Billboard

Two hands on the steering wheel, because Tate McRae’s sports car is about to drop off a four-pack of brand-new songs. The pop star revealed the track list for her upcoming So Close to What deluxe edition on Monday (Nov. 17), which is set to arrive later this week.

In addition to her top five Billboard Hot 100 smash “Tit for Tat,” McRae will be adding “Trying on Shoes,” “Anything But Love,” “Nobody’s Girl” and “Horseshoe” to the deluxe on Friday. The new songs are free of features.

The Tater Tots were ecstatic at the new music announcement, and some joked about “Nobody’s Girl” being related to Sabrina Carpenter’s Man’s Best Friend cut “Nobody’s Son.” “Nobody’s Girl! Thats Nobody’s Son‘s sister OMG,” one fan commented.
