During Smith’s preparation for her En Vivo performance at Club M2 Miami, Billboard was on-site with the Venezuelan star in the hours leading up to her set, as she sifted through the Latina-founded apparel collection to select wardrobe pieces for herself and her backup dancers. The 14-piece unisex collab includes everything from jackets to matching pants and vests, serving as a tribute to Patty’s first-generation identity and her parents’ journey from Mexico.

“As soon as I saw the collection, there were so many things that I immediately thought I could wear onstage, but also offstage,” the star told Billboard of the line. “I’m also glad people who see our performance can shop these pieces at Walmart.”

NBA 2K League Is Back, But Things Will Be Much Different

The NBA 2K League, the eSports organization tied to the NBA 2K video game franchise, is back—but this time, it’s boasting significant changes.

NBA Take-Two Media announced the relaunch of the NBA 2K League, which will now focus on entertainment and online content.

The new NBA 2K League will highlight creators and NBA players who will battle it out on the sticks throughout the season.

NBA 2K players, don’t worry, you haven’t been forgotten. There will also be an open ladder competition for fans.

NBA players will now be able to be involved in the NBA 2K League because of NBA Take-Two Media’s new multi-year partnership with the National Basketball Players Association.

NBA Take-Two Media, an entertainment company formed earlier this year by the professional basketball league and Take-Two, focuses on eSports and online social content.

Sticking to that focus, you can expect to see various creators throughout the season, including honorary commissioner Jess’  Jesser’ Riedel, a popular sports YouTube creator with over 35 million followers.

The 2K League Will Feature Six Teams

The new season will feature six teams: Boston Celtics, Detroit Pistons, Memphis Grizzlies, Toronto Raptors, Utah Jazz, and Washington Wizards.

Each team will be represented by duos featuring content creators and NBA players who participate in various challenges throughout the year.

The league’s revamp was first teased by the NBA 2K League back in July. The decision to switch things didn’t come without some bad news: a significant number of staff lost their jobs, according to Dexterto.

“With the new 2K League, we’re building an entirely new type of entertainment universe that blends competition with content,” said Andrew Perlmutter, CEO of NBA Take-Two Media.

“Filled with wild, wacky, unpredictable and emotionally resonant moments, we’re extending the immensely popular world of NBA2K beyond competitive gaming and will show fans who their favourite athletes and creators are off the court.”

Lookout For These 2K League Events

The new season of the NBA 2K League will start with a new reality series called MyPlayer Mayhem that will be a combination of competitiveness and entertainment.

You can catch the first episode on November 5 on the NBA 2K League’s YouTube channel, with new episodes dropping every week.

MyPlayer Mayhem will conclude with two live tournaments on Twitch from November 8 to 9th and November 15 to 16th, 2025.

Next Fan Up, the 2K League tournament, begins on November 16 and will offer NBA 2K players who think they are good enough to compete with creators and NBA players.

Those participating in Next Fan Up will have the opportunity to represent an NBA team of their choice by climbing the online ranks through gameplay and social media challenges.

Fuerza Regida’s ‘Marlboro Rojo’ Claims Top Spot on Regional Mexican Airplay Chart

Trending on Billboard

Fuerza Regida secures its fourth stint at No. 1 in 2025, as “Marlboro Rojo” surges from No. 6 to the top of Billboard’s Regional Mexican Airplay chart (dated Nov. 8). The group banks its seventh champ total.

“Marlboro Rojo” becomes the second chart-topper from the group’s ninth studio album, 111XPANTIA. Just four months ago, “Por Esos Ojos” led the list for one week in July.

As the sole writer of “Marlboro Rojo,” Miguel Armando Armenta, better known as Armenta, secures his sixth No. 1 on Regional Mexican Airplay chart as a writer. He previously penned five other chart-topping hits, contributing to the success of songs by Fuerza Regida and Gabito Ballesteros.

“Marlboro” takes the lead with 6.9 million audience impressions, earned in the United States in the week ending Oct. 30, according to Luminate. That’s a 31% boost from the previous week. As the track lands at the summit, Fuerza collects its seventh ruler dating to 2023 when “Bebe Dame,” with Grupo Frontera, earned the group its longest-leading No. 1 with three weeks in charge. Here’s a look at those champs:

Title, Artist, Peak, Weeks at No. 1
“Bebe Dame,” with Grupo Frontera, March 18, 2023, three
“Mentira No Es,” with Banda MS, July 29, 2023, one
“Harley Quinn,” with Marshmello, Feb. 3, 2024, one
“Tu Boda,” with Oscar Maydon, Feb. 1, 2025, one
“Me Jalo,” with Grupo Frontera, April 5, 2025, one
“Por Esos Ojos,” July 19, 2025, one
“Marlboro Rojo,” Nov. 8, 2025, one

“Marlboro” shoots up the overall Latin Airplay chart, climbing from No. 15 to No. 3 and giving Fuerza its eighth top 10.

PinkPantheress Given Rotisserie Chicken by Fan at a Concert & Re-Gifts It to Her DJ: ‘He Could Use the Protein’

Trending on Billboard

PinkPantheress was shocked after a fan gifted her a rotisserie chicken during a recent show in Chicago.

The singer performed at Byline Bank Aragon Ballroom over the weekend, and during the show, she took a moment when she noticed a fan was carrying a full-blown rotisserie chicken.

“Is that roast f—ing chicken in here?” Pink asked, according to a video seen on social media. “Did you bring me a bag of roast chicken? What does that mean, huh? What does that mean? Can I have it, though?”

PinkPantheress clarified whether the chicken was a gift for her, and when the fan agreed, she offered it to her DJ.

“Joe, how do you feel about this? Do you want this?” Pink asked her DJ. “He hasn’t eaten today. He could use the protein. He could use some protein.”

DJ Joe then began eating the rotisserie chicken while playing a remix of PinkPantheress’ hit song “Illegal.”

This is only the most recent surprise to go down at a PinkPantheress show. While in New York back in October, city mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani popped out at Pink’s show at Brooklyn’s Kings Theater. Mamdani appeared on the jumbotron with “Our Time Has Come Vote Nov 4” written across both of his hands. Mamdani smiled for the camera and received a roaring ovation from the Kings Theater audience.

New York’s mayoral election is going down Tuesday (Nov. 4), with Mamdani facing off against former governor Andrew Cuomo and Republican candidate Curtis Sliwa. The winner will replace current mayor Eric Adams, who withdrew from the race in late September.
