Michael Jackson’s biopic, Michael, has dethroned Bohemian Rhapsody to become the highest-grossing music biopic of all time, crossing $911.9 million worldwide as the Jaafar Jackson-starring film continues its global rollout.

Directed by Antoine Fuqua and written by John Logan, the Lionsgate and Universal co-production has surpassed Bohemian Rhapsody‘s total gross with $358.6 million at the domestic box office and $553.3 million internationally — with Universal generating $540.5 million of the international total after acquiring foreign theatrical and ancillary rights. The film arrives in Japan today, a territory that could push Michael past $1 billion worldwide, which would make it only the second film to cross that threshold at the 2026 global box office after Universal’s Super Mario Galaxy Movie.

By comparison, the Freddie Mercury biopic Bohemian Rhapsody — which won four Oscars including Best Film Editing and earned Rami Malek a Best Actor win — grossed $216.6 million domestically and $694.3 million internationally for a $910.9 million global total. Both films were produced by Graham King, meaning King has now broken his own all-time box office record for music biopics.

The film has set a string of records in addition to its overall gross — among them the largest global opening weekend ever for a music biopic, the highest-grossing domestic biopic of all time, and the most successful biopic ever in France, surpassing La Vie en Rose. Forty international markets surpassed Bohemian Rhapsody‘s lifetime gross, including Brazil, France and Mexico. It is also Lionsgate’s highest-grossing theatrical release ever worldwide.

The road to release was not without turbulence. Lionsgate was forced to undertake $50 million in reshoots after the Jackson estate identified a key issue with a plot point in the screenplay concerning one of Jackson’s accusers, who was not meant to be dramatised in the film. The film stars Jaafar Jackson — Michael Jackson’s nephew — in the title role.

Michael Jackson remains one of the most commercially successful recording artists in history. He has sold an estimated 350 million records worldwide, scored 13 No. 1 singles on the Billboard Hot 100 as a solo artist — including “Billie Jean,” “Beat It” and “Black or White” — and holds the record for the best-selling album of all time with Thriller, which has sold more than 70 million copies worldwide.

Thriller spent 37 weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard 200. Jackson was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame twice — once as a member of the Jackson 5 in 1997 and once as a solo artist in 2001.

With Ariana Grande’s Eternal Sunshine Tour underway, the pop/R&B singer is traveling across the United States with nearly 30 stops scheduled in big cities, like Brooklyn, Austin, Atlanta, Boston and others.

If you are planning on attending, one thing’s for sure: You’ll want merch and apparel. Thankfully, Urban Outfitters dropped a line of tees all priced at $40 apiece from different eras of Grande’s career, from Yours Truly to Eternal Sunshine. Considering most concert merch can run you more than $100 per tee, this $40-line is a stellar option.

You can’t find these pieces anywhere else, meaning once these t-shirts are sold out, they’re gone for good. We’ve shared a few of our fashionable favorites from the collection, including baby tees and shirt dresses, and how to style them.

Going to Ariana Grande’s Eternal Sunshine Tour? Dress the Part With These Urban Outfitters Pieces

Ariana Grande ‘Eternal Sunshine’ Graphic T-Shirt Dress

UO Exclusive

This shirt meets dress comes in sizes small/medium and large/XL.


The glory days of Grande wearing baggy shirt-esque dresses will never be forgotten, and this style is proof. The boxy silhouette features artwork from the artist’s Eternal Sunshine era on both the front and back in red, contrasting the cream-colored base. The neckline is slouchy, sitting off-the-shoulder.

If you’re tired of regular old graphic tees, you can shake up your collection and try out this piece that is more dress than shirt. This style stops around the mid-thigh, depending on your height. If you are heading to one of the singer’s stops on her tour, this is a comfortable option that you can wear with combat boots or bloomers. Or go full-on 2018 Grande and wear thigh-high booties to elongate your legs.

Ariana Grande ‘Yours Truly’ Graphic Baby Tee

UO Exclusive

Another baby tee is available in this exclusive line featuring art from Positions.


If you’re up for showing a little skin, this baby-tee is beyond adorable. The shirt’s graphics reference Grande’s Yours Truly era, her debut studio album, released back in 2013. Whether you’re a longtime fan or just getting into the pop star, this shirt is a very flattering option. The circular neckline gives way to short sleeves and a short and trim hemline. Graphic tees are often baggy and boxy.

This baby style is a offers a reprieve from the oversaturated market of similar silhouettes, offering prospective buyers something form-fitted and sleek. To style, we’d opt for something high-waisted like jeans or shorts for extra coverage. For a 2000s moment, wear low-rise denim.

Ariana Grande ‘My Everything’ Graphic Tee

UO Exclusive

The back of this shirt features black and white artwork from My Everything.


My Everything was released in 2014, and quickly became a hit with tracks like “Problem,” which took the number two spot on Billboard Hot 100 charts or “Bang Bang,” taking the third spot and “Break Free,” which took the number four spot.

This tee is a reminder of that glorious era, pulling art straight from Grande’s second studio album. This throwback design is 100% cotton, which not only makes it breathable but also super soft as well. It is another oversized casual piece that you can comfortably wear to a concert, even when it gets hot from dancing and singing your heart out. And because it’s so breezy, it could double as a lounge or sleep shirt.

Olivia Rodrigo is back with her third studio album, You Seem Pretty Sad for a Girl So in Love. This new offering features 13 tracks chock-full of “sad love songs,” in her words, including “Stupid Song” and “U + Me = <3.” The internet is abuzz with excitement, likely because it’s been nearly three years since the pop singer/songwriter released an album, her last being Guts from 2023.

In an Instagram message posted Friday (June 12), Rodrigo wrote, “I love this album so much. The record is a time capsule of a relationship in all of its highs and lows. It’s my attempt at capturing love from both sides of the coin. The hope and the disappointment. The insanity and the clarity. The entanglement and the unraveling.”

Inspired by and in celebration of her new music, Hot Topic dropped a line of merch that is pretty hard to pass up. Every piece is inspired by the themes and aesthetics of the album, down to the graphics featured on comfy hoodies and even decorative enamel pins.

Pricing ranges from $8.91 to $66.90. We’ve chosen a few of our favorites from the capsule that are very cute and, most importantly, something that we can see our readers actually wearing. Whether you’re a diehard Rodrigo Stan or just looking for some new stylish clothes for the summer, there’s something for everyone.

Additionally, from Friday (June 12) to Sunday (June 14), Hot Topic is running a buy two, get one free sale, which includes all of Rodrigo’s new merch.

Olivia Rodrigo’s Merch and Apparel Line Celebrates New Album With Girly Accessories and Cozy Basics

Olivia Rodrigo ‘Sad For A Girl So In Love’ Hoodie

On chillier evenings, we’d style this piece with your favorite sweats and slippers snuggled up under the covers.


Cozy hoodies never go out of style, especially when they’re adorned with Rodrigo’s face. This oversized style features heart-shaped graphics and artwork from the “Vampire” singer’s album lend a grungy and whimsical vibe to this piece.

It’s an oversized number with a zip-up closure and a drawstring to pull the hood taut. Since this hoodie comes in brown, you’re likely to get lots of use out of it, because the neutral tone pairs well with a variety of colors. Plus, warm items like this get a ton of wear no matter the season because you can throw them over everything from dresses and tops to tying them around your waist for a layered moment on particularly breezy summer days.

Olivia Rodrigo Swing Line Art T-shirt

The singer’s cover art for her new album has drawn comparisons to The Swing, a famous rococo painting by Jean-Honoré Fragonard.


These graphic T-shirts feature Rodrigo’s album cover front and center. One comes in pink, framed by flowers in the shape of a heart, while the other features graphics of the artist solo in black and tan. We love styles like this because they are comfortable and oversized, leaving the wearer feeling relaxed and unrestricted, and they go with most items you likely already have in your closet.

Pop this on with a denim miniskirt and combat boots for an edgy moment, or keep it casual with barrel jeans and sneakers. Styles come in sizes XS to 3XL, a range meant to fit most, if not all, body types. If you’re looking for a baggier fit, we’d suggest sizing up. If you want to opt for something more maximalist, give the pink style a try. If you want a more versatile basic in neutrals, the taupe tee should be your go-to.

Hot Topic sells pin sets like this for many fandoms, not just music-related ones. They have themed buttons for anime, TV and movies too.


Our prediction? Buttons will soon dethrone the ever-popular bag charm. Enamel styles like this set of four have been pinned to totes, crossbody bags and shoulder styles since forever, upgrading and diversifying the look of everyday items and turning them into something more personal.

Buttons like these reflect tastes while creating visual interest, much like bag charms. They’re collectible and, unlike bag charms, pins don’t wear down as easily because of the enamel coating. This means they’ll last longer on your bag, even if you’re a bit rough with it.

Olivia Rodrigo Album Sticker Set

This sticker pack features artwork inspired by Rodrigo’s 2026 single “Drop Dead.”


Like the buttons in this line, these stickers add a personal touch to anything you stick them to, turning the mundane items in your routine into something playful and fun.

Meanwhile, Target and Amazon have official You Seem Pretty Sad for a Girl So in Love merch available to buy now.

While it seemed like every other seat was filled by an at-first dejected and then wildly elated celebrity cheering on the New York Knicks to a totally improbable last-second victory in game four of the NBA finals on Wednesday night (June 10), one A-lister who couldn’t make it still grabbed massive headlines.

On Thursday (June 11), Nicole Kidman gave her enthusiastic thumbs-up to Taylor Swift, and Este and Alana Haim of the band Haim for representing with their custom Knicks name pun T-shirts. And while she didn’t specifically shout out Este Haim for rocking a hilarious “Knickole Kidman” shirt on game night, in her Instagram Story the Margo’s Got Money Troubles star told the trio that she was with them in spirit.

“Right there with you girls!” Kidman wrote over a video of Swift shouting and pointing to her shirt — which read “Stevie Knicks” — before the camera turns to Swift hyping up Este’s Kidman-coded top. Kidman also reposted the trio’s celebration video in which they danced to Cyndi Lauper’s 1983 Billboard Hot 100 No. 2 hit “Girls Just Want to Have Fun,” again lamenting that she could not be there to enjoy the good times.

“My girls!” she wrote in the caption. “I just wanna have fun!”

As just about everyone has seen by now, boy did they have fun! The trio — plus Law & Order: Special Victims Unit star Mariska Hargitay, also wearing a “Stevie Knicks” shirt — have been clipped into countless videos showing their wild enthusiasm during the game in which the Knicks improbably came back from a 29-point deficit to win as time expired, taking a 3-1 lead in the series.

Vogue caught up with Alana Haim after the game, to talk about her custom T-shirt/tote bag side hustle. They found out that the bassist/singer bought the royal blue shirts from Michael’s for $2.99 each and screen-printed them herself after getting a text from Swift that read, “I want to wear this shirt to the game, can you make it for me?”

Haim said she thought her pal would never ask, so then the two talked fonts and sizing, with Swift offering up her idea for a music-related Knicks pun, setting off a parade of punny ideas. “We really just wanted to have fun, because we were so excited that we were going to the game, and I thought it would make people laugh, so we put them on shirts and all decided to wear them,” she said.

And yes, Este brought an extra one, because she always does, to give to friends, which is how Hargitay ended up joining in on the action. For the record, third Haim sister lead guitarist/singer Danielle was also reportedly at the game wearing a shirt reading “Knickolas Cage,” but did not sit with her siblings on celebrity row.

Game five of the series will take place in San Antonio on Saturday (June 13), which, if the Knicks win it, would mark the team’s first championship if 53 years.


Nicole Kidman Didn’t Make It to That Bonkers Playoff Game, But She Sure Loved Este Haim’s Custom ‘Knickole Kidman’ Knicks T-shirt

You want it to be one way, but it’s the other way.

That’s one of the several Marlo Stanfield lines Jay-Z referenced during his viral “Roots Picnic Freestyle” from the critically acclaimed HBO series The Wire. Jamie Hector, who played the ice cold villain, recently stopped by Way Up with Angela Yee and spoke on how he found out about being mentioned by Jigga during such a monumental moment.

“I was grateful. It was a great feeling,” he said. “You know, Jay is the head honcho, right? He gets it done. And he was gone for a minute and then when he decides to reappear and get onstage, he starts talking about the work that was created — ’cause it was art that was created, right? And it’s placed onscreen. Coming from an artist paying homage, and showing love and respect to it, and who it’s coming from, as well. It felt great. And not to mention, my phone started blowing up. I’m talking about coming from everybody. And I was like, “What’s going on?”

He was then asked by Angela’s co-host B-Dot his thoughts on the character he helped make famous becoming a favorite reference for rappers in general, and Hector showed nothing but appreciation for being acknowledged by other artists for his work. “I mean, I appreciate it because the work was done,” he replied. “It’s a collaboration. They’re talking about the character and everything like that, but the character wouldn’t exist without the entire show, without the writing, without the director, without the producers, without everybody putting everything together. Developing that character was fun, it was work, and hopefully it’s timeless. And what do I feel about them mentioning it? I feel good, keep it alive.”

Yee then asked if his kids were aware of his chilling turn as a cold-blooded drug dealer, and he said that his 16-year-old daughter is watching the series for the first time and actually just started the third season while his nine-year-old son has just seen clips online. “My daughter is watching it now and my son, he catches clips and he just be like, ‘You evil.’”

Taylor Swift is officially in her Disney Era as of this week, starting with Friday’s release of “I Knew It, I Knew You” for Toy Story 5 and followed by her surprise debut performance of the song at Tuesday night’s (June 9) world premiere of the movie in Hollywood.

Once the Disney Pixar film wrapped up in front of 3,000-plus lucky moviegoers at the Dolby Theatre on Tuesday night, the screen lifted to reveal Swift in a floor-length butter-yellow gown sitting at a piano, ready to live-debut the song the audience had just heard over the film’s end credits. Swift’s vocal perfectly matched the playful country-pop recording, while the acoustic piano backdrop brought some extra emotional weight to the song — especially after the crowd had just audibly sobbed together over Cowgirl Jessie’s poignant Toy Story 5 storyline.

“I would just love to say, it means the world to me to be a small part of the universe of these films, and Toy Story 5 is my favorite of all of the Toy Storys,” Swift told the crowd after performing her new song. “I’m so lucky that I get to be a part of this, and I want to thank … all of the creators at Disney and Pixar for all the work they put into this film. It’s insanely beautiful. It’s a masterpiece. We’re so lucky to get to have this film out. Your work is amazing, and I hope you’re all so proud of yourselves. If you’re in this room and you worked on this film, thank you so much.”

But somehow, the surprise first performance of Swift’s new song was just part of the story. Billboard was inside the world premiere ahead of the film’s July 19 arrival in U.S. theaters, and below are some of our favorite moments from a very special night.

Sydney has given to the world some giants of the stage. Think Dame Joan Sutherland, the late INXS frontman Michael Hutchence, and Delta Goodrem. Lara D might, one day, crack that list.

The Sydneysider did her chances of success absolutely no harm when she stopped by America’s Got Talent for the Auditions phase.

Aussies have the reputation of fearless travelers, and Lara fits the stereotype. When asked by Simon Cowell why she made the long haul, she responded: “I feel like this is one of the biggest stages.”

Lara had begun working in the family business, but choose her own path. “I decided I wanted to come here because I wanted to pursue my dream,” she explained, “and I feel like this is the stage where dreams come true.”

Sometimes, they do.  

Lara then set about changing the mood in the room, by hitting an immense cover of RAYE’s “Oscar Winning Tears.” It was all there, rapping and range, tone and then tears.

Looking on, the judges’ jaws were looser than old elastic. “I loved it, there’s something about you that is very special. And I think everybody felt it tonight,” remarked Sofia Vergara, who was fast out of her seat.

“This is the kind of thing that I’ve been looking for,” enthused Howie Mandel. “I’ve been looking for a surprise. I’ve been looking for something unexpected. You are a star and I want to do something special,” he added. And with that, the St. Elsewhere actor stood and motioned toward the Golden Buzzer. “You deserve this.”

In a moment of drama, Vergara beat him to the punch. A steal, captured in slow motion for those of us watching at home. Cue the emotions, the gold confetti and, for Lara, a direct route to the Live Shows for AGT Season 21.

Later, host Terry Crews grabbed Vergara for some reaction. “She was spectacular. I wanted her from the moment she started singing.”

Watch Lara D’s Golden Buzzer performance below.
