Nicola Roberts has announced the arrival of her first child.
On Sunday (May 24), the 40-year-old Girls Aloud singer revealed on social media that she and her fiancé, Mitch Hahn, recently welcomed a baby daughter.
“Our beautiful baby girl is here,” Roberts wrote on Instagram alongside adorable photos of her newborn. “We haven’t stopped staring at her perfect little face or kissing her softest little head.”
The vocalist added, “She arrived healthy and content a couple of weeks ago at 38 weeks weighing 6.5lbs and is thriving. It’s heaven on earth with her and we can hardly believe she’s ours.”
Roberts’ post included several adorable snapshots, including one of the glowing new mother holding her child, another showing the infant’s tiny hand resting on hers, and a picture of Hahn carrying the baby in a car seat.
Fellow celebrities quickly flooded the comments section with congratulatory messages.
“Congratulations!!!!!!!!! Sending so much love!!” her Girls Aloud bandmate Nadine Coyle wrote. English singer-songwriter Sophie Ellis-Bextor added, “congratulations!! Xxx.” And Little Mix star Perrie Edwards, who welcomed her second child earlier this year, commented, “Congratulations! Enjoy the baby bubble.”
Roberts and the former soccer player got engaged during a trip to the South of France in August 2024. The couple announced on Christmas 2025 that they were expecting their first child together.
“Mitch and I have had the most magical Christmas Day sharing the most precious news with our families,” Roberts wrote on Instagram at the time. “We’ve been keeping a secret. We are five months pregnant! We can’t wait to meet our little one in the spring.”
She documented much of her pregnancy journey on social media in the months that followed, including her “surreal” baby shower on Easter. In late April, Roberts also revealed that she had undergone surgery at 22 weeks to “help keep the baby in.”
“Hitting that 34 week mark was a big relief,” Roberts wrote on Instagram April 28. “I now only have a few weeks left. Safe to say, this last bit is not the easiest is it?! In one breath, it will be nice to feel more comfortable again but I will also really miss my bump and having this tiny little thing in there.”
Girls Aloud members Cheryl, Nadine Coyle, Kimberley Walsh and Roberts reunited for an arena tour across the U.K. and Ireland in 2024, marking their first tour in more than 11 years. Following the reunion trek, Roberts starred as Persephone in the West End production of Hadestown at London’s Lyric Theatre, appearing in the role from September 2025 through January 2026.

Drake takes over the top of the Billboard 200 albums chart as his three new albums, ICEMAN, HABIBTI and MAID OF HONOUR, debut at Nos. 1, 2 and 3, respectively, on the chart dated May 30.
All three albums were released on Friday, May 15. It’s the first time that an artist has held the top three on the Billboard 200 concurrently since it began publishing on a regular, weekly basis in March 1956.
ICEMAN also yields Drake his 15th No. 1 album, pushing him ahead of Jay-Z for the most No. 1s among solo men and R&B/hip-hop artists, and tying him with Taylor Swift for the most No. 1s among soloists. Only one act is ahead of Drake and Swift: The Beatles, with a record 19 No. 1 albums.
While ICEMAN had been teased for months before it dropped, the existence of the other two albums was only announced during a livestream on May 14, shortly before the trio of titles was released.
ICEMAN enters with 463,000 equivalent album units earned in the United States in the week ending May 21, marking the second-largest week of 2026 for an album and the biggest week of the year for an R&B/hip-hop set. HABIBTI and MAID OF HONOUR launch with 114,000 and 110,000 units, respectively.
Also in the top 10 of the latest Billboard 200, rapper LUCKI lands his first top 10 as Dr*gs R Bad debuts at No. 9.
The Billboard 200 chart ranks the most popular albums of the week in the U.S. based on multi-metric consumption as measured in equivalent album units, compiled by Luminate. Units comprise album sales, track equivalent albums (TEA) and streaming equivalent albums (SEA). Each unit equals one album sale, or 10 individual tracks sold from an album, or 2,500 ad-supported or 1,000 paid/subscription on-demand official audio and video streams generated by songs from an album. The new May 30, 2026-dated chart will be posted in full on Billboard‘s website on May 27 (a day later than usual due to the Memorial Day holiday in the U.S. on May 25). For all chart news, follow @billboard and @billboardcharts on both X and Instagram.
Of ICEMAN’s 463,000 equivalent album units earned in the latest tracking week, SEA units comprise 449,000 (equaling 462.2 million on-demand official streams of the set’s 18 tracks; it debuts at No. 1 on Top Streaming Albums), album sales comprise 13,000 (only available as a digital download, it debuts at No. 5 on Top Album Sales) and TEA units comprise 1,000.
Of HABIBTI’s starting sum of 114,000, SEA units comprise 108,000 (equaling 110.63 million on-demand official streams of the set’s 11 tracks; it debuts at No. 2 on Top Streaming Albums), album sales comprise nearly 6,000 (it debuts at No. 12 on Top Album Sales) and TEA units comprise a negligible sum.
As for MAID OF HONOUR, of its first-week total of 110,000, SEA units comprise 104,000 (equaling 105.48 million on-demand official streams of the set’s 14 tracks; it debuts at No. 3 on Top Streaming Albums), album sales comprise 6,000 (it debuts at No. 11 on Top Album Sales) and TEA units comprise a negligible sum.
Both HABIBTI and MAID OF HONOUR, like ICEMAN, were available to purchase only as digital download albums.
By debuting at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 (dated May 30) with Iceman, Drake ups his career total of weeks at No. 1 on that chart to 38. That extends his lead as the hip-hop artist with the most weeks at No. 1 and the Canadian artist with the most weeks at No. 1.
Drake is now tied with Fleetwood Mac and The Rolling Stones, who also have each also logged 38 weeks at No. 1. Fleetwood Mac and The Stones are both in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. Will Drake one day join them?
Drake’s No. 1 albums span nearly 16 years, from July 2010 to May 2026. How does that compare to The Stones and Fleetwood Mac? The hip-hop star’s span of No. 1 albums is already nearly as long as The Stones’. The rock band’s No. 1 albums span a few months more than 16 years, from August 1965 to November 1981. Fleetwood Mac’s No. 1 albums span 21 years, from September 1976 to September 1997.

A few quick notes: While Elvis Presley’s feats on the Billboard Hot 100 are shortchanged by the fact that his breakthrough in 1956 pre-dated the launch of Billboard’s flagship songs chart by more than two years, the Billboard 200 captures Presley’s entire career. His debut album, Elvis Presley, entered the chart at No. 11 in the issue dated March 31, 1956 — which was the chart’s second week.
If you count the Saturday Night Fever soundtrack (which logged 24 weeks at No. 1 in 1978) as a Bee Gees album, the trio had 31 weeks on top. Bee Gees had six tracks on the album — five of which were No. 1 hits on the Hot 100. But Billboard counts it as a multi-artist soundtrack album.
Here’s a look at all acts with 30 or more weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 since March 24, 1956, when the chart began publishing on a consistent weekly basis. Ties are shown in alphabetical order.
The Michael Jackson biopic Michael has grossed $788 million worldwide since its release on April 24, according to boxofficemojo.com. Michael already ranks No. 2 on Billboard’s list of music biopics with the highest worldwide grosses.
Jackson has a long history of ranking No. 1 on lists, dating back to The Jackson 5 landing their first No. 1 hit on the Billboard Hot 100 with “I Want You Back” in 1970, but that hasn’t been an easy task in this case. The all-time top-grossing music biopic, Bohemian Rhapsody, grossed $911 million worldwide. Can Michael close that $123 million gap and overtake the Freddie Mercury biopic? It just may. It grossed $166.1 million in the past week.
According to Box Office Mojo figures, international ticket sales account for nearly 60% of Michael‘s worldwide boxoffice total to date. International is responsible for 59.4% of the boxoffice tally, with the other 40.6% coming from the U.S. and Canada.
Of note: Graham King, who co-produced Michael with longtime Jackson associates John Branca and John McClain, also co-produced Bohemian Rhapsody and a third music biopic on this list, Jersey Boys, the story of the Four Seasons.
These are the highest-grossing biopics of musicians in terms of worldwide box office. We didn’t include a few high-grossing films about real-life music personalities because the subjects are not well-known music stars in their own right. These include The Sound of Music (which tells the story of Maria von Trapp and the Trapp Family Singers); Green Book (which deals with a road trip taken by pianist and composer Don Shirley); Florence Foster Jenkins (about an heiress and hopelessly untalented soprano by that name); and Music of the Heart (about violinist and music educator Roberta Guaspari). Meryl Streep starred in the latter two films.
Here are the 25 biopics of music stars with the highest worldwide grosses.
Kali Uchis arrived at Sueños 2026 in a carriage, but the real reveal came later.
On Saturday (May 23), the Colombian American superstar used her headlining main stage set at Chicago’s Grant Park to launch her For the Girls Tour, delivering nearly an hour of hits with the kind of lush, soft-focus drama that has become one of her signatures. Her voice stayed velvety and controlled throughout, gliding over the festival grounds as she moved through fan favorites including “Telepatía,” “After the Storm,” “Moonlight,” “Dead to Me” and “Loner.”

The performance leaned fully into Uchis’ gift for world-building. Her entrance nodded to Selena’s iconic 1995 Astrodome arrival, while her custom all-white look — a fitted, sexy, western-leaning ensemble — felt equal parts angelic and festival-ready. Around her, the choreography was sleek and exacting, from mirror-heavy tableaux to sensual chair routines with male dancers, all of it reinforcing the cinematic universe she has created onstage. The For the Girls Tour will continue with stops in New York, Atlanta, Los Angeles and more. See the full dates here.
In an exclusive interview with Billboard Español before the set, Kali Uchis opened up about evolving beyond the Sincerely, Tour, why Mariah the Scientist was the right choice for For the Girls, and the Spanglish album she says is already finished.
What does it mean to kick off the For the Girls Tour at Sueños, one of the biggest Latin music festivals in the U.S.?
I’m really excited. I feel like every time we do the show, it’s an evolved version. I try to always make it better than last, so there’s going to be a lot of elements from the original Sincerely, Tour. I try to find ways to make it funner for me to perform.
This is my last time touring for the whole rest of the year. So I’m just going to try to give my all and do my best and then take my little break, focus on my album.
From what you’ve created for this show, what does this era say about where you are right now — both as an artist and as a woman?
It’s very cinematic. I try to play a lot with that. My show has always been a bit theatrical in a sense. We did the angel wings and the pillow fighting, and now we’re gonna do some bottle breaking. We do the gun. A lot of different things that feel very much inspired by art cinema and that theatrical type of vibe.
I changed the entrance. I used to come in on a swing, which was really fun. I’m coming in on a carriage now. Since it’s outdoors, I was like, “What can I do outdoors?” It’s like a little homage to Selena’s last show, while also making it my own. I try to always make everything I do that’s inspired by the icons feel like my own.
What made Mariah the Scientist the right artist to join you on this tour?
I love her music. I mostly listen to vintage music, but I really love Mariah’s songs. I love her songwriting. I love that she champions that, her songwriting. I think she’s an amazing, really talented girl and this tour is for the girls!
When fans enter and leave the show, what do you want For the Girls to feel like?
I want them to feel inspired. I want them to feel empowered. That’s something that I always hope for anyone who attends my show — to feel a sense of community, to feel seen through music that may have touched them or helped them through a hard time; to feel like they got to have that full experience of really being impacted in a way that shifts them in a positive way.
That’s really always my goal, for people to leave feeling inspired. I’m really somebody who came from nothing and who also didn’t have support from my family or necessarily anyone around me. I always champion being proud of yourself, who you are and where you come from, no matter what you have going on — and to be the number one supporter of yourself.
When you reflect on your career, what stays with you most?
I try to always remember where I come from, but more than anything, I feel like it’s really important for me to be very grateful for all of the changes that have happened in my life and where I am right now. But also, to use that to inspire the youth and people who might feel like giving up.
I feel like I’m where I am today because of my state of mind — I was never gonna believe the things that outwardly people wanted me to believe about myself. It was always very important for me for my inner voice to be the loudest voice.
When we caught you at Madison Square Garden, you mentioned you were working on new music. What can you share?
I have a lot of it finished, honestly. I have a whole album done. I just really want to be done with my touring and then just lock in on finalizing it and putting all those last pieces together.
Is it in English or Spanish?
Spanglish.
Selena Gomez appears to be having a blast while filming the upcoming season of Only Murders in the Building in London.
The 33-year-old singer-actress took to social media on Sunday (May 24) to share a carousel of photos, giving fans a behind-the-scenes look at the hit Hulu series’ sixth season.

“First week in London,” Gomez captioned the gallery on Instagram, alongside a smiling face with hearts and a U.K. flag emoji.
The Rare Beauty founder opened her post with a video of herself jumping on the viral Sabrina Carpenter “House Tour” trend, lip-syncing to the track while pointing to the multiple levels of a dessert tray while seated in a restaurant.
“House Tour” appears on Carpenter’s latest album, Man’s Best Friend, which topped the Billboard 200 in September 2025. The track peaked at No. 27 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart that same month.
Gomez’s Instagram post also included candid snapshots of the “Single Soon” hitmaker walking the streets of London, playing Scrabble, and on-set images alongside her Only Murders in the Building co-stars Steve Martin and Martin Short, with Big Ben appearing in the background.
It was confirmed in October 2025 that Only Murders in the Building would be returning for a sixth season and set in London. The upcoming season will also mark the first time the series has filmed overseas.
“Well, looks like our fam is going to London y’all …,” the singer-actress wrote on her Instagram Story at the time. “I want to thank our community and fans of @onlymurdershulu for allowing us to even have a season 6!” she continued in a different slide, posting a photo she took of Martin and Short. “We are eternally grateful we can bring any of you any sort of joy. My deepest gratitude from Steve, Marty and myself.”
Only Murders in the Building first premiered on Hulu in 2021 and has become one of the streaming service’s most successful programs. It has received seven Emmys out of 56 total nominations in the years since.
The location of season 6 seems to correlate with the cliffhanger ending of the previous season, which closed with the main trio listening to a podcast episode — narrated by Tina Fey’s character, Cinda Canning — about a U.K. woman who allegedly murdered a descendant of the royal family before fleeing to the United States.

Caleb Shomo is opening up about his personal life.
In an emotional Instagram post on Saturday (May 23), the frontman of rock/metalcore band Beartooth came out as gay.

“There’s been a lot of speculation surrounding my personal life as of late and I feel compelled to set the record straight before it affects those I love any further,” Shomo wrote. “I am a proudly gay man.”
He continued, “This is something I’ve been unpacking and reckoning with in my life for quite some time now. It’s been difficult to navigate the feelings surrounding the subject and figure out what to do with this fact.”
Beartooth, which formed in 2012 and recently signed to Fearless Records, has scored two No. 1 albums on Billboard’s Top Hard Rock Albums chart with 2018’s Disease and 2023’s The Surface.
The singer and multi-instrumentalist, 33, has been married to his wife, Fleur Shomo, for the past 14 years.
“I have always strived to chase who I am in the deepest part of my soul from album to album,” Caleb Shomo wrote. “As you could gather if you’ve followed the band at all in the earlier years, there are four very self-deprecating albums about exploring my religious upbringing, depression, self-hatred, self-loathing, and hopelessness. I am grateful for all these albums, yet feel embarrassed at times that I wouldn’t allow myself to really dig up the roots for so long.”
He added, “I spent a decade burying feelings with alcohol, and honestly, when I decided to put it down and focus on exploring why I felt this way for so long, it’s been a direct path to me reconciling with my sexuality in hopes that it will eventually lead me to experiencing self-love.”
Beartooth’s sixth album, Pure Ecstasy, is scheduled for release on Aug. 28 through Fearless.
“One thing I decided before I wrote a single note or lyric of the upcoming album is that whatever happens, I will express myself wholeheartedly and fully,” Shomo wrote. “Wherever it takes me I will follow and I refuse to water any part of it down, from the music, to the lyrical content, and way I portray myself. I will only do what makes me happy at the deepest level and what is the most honest depiction of who I am.”
Following his announcement, Shomo’s wife, Fleur, shared her own statement on Instagram, expressing support for him while also confirming that they are no longer together.
“I will always want to love, protect and support Caleb. I have cared more about his well-being over the years than anything else in the world,” Fleur Shomo wrote. “To see the confusion and pain he went through and the highs and lows and wanting to help but now knowing how. You never want anything more for your person than for them to just be ok.”
She added, “Our nearly 14 years of marriage was wonderful and full of so much fun, adventure & love. Nobody will know anything about our marriage like we do. And no one can ever truly know what depths of love exist between two people unless they are those people. I already miss it & my husband more than anything. Our story was a good one. And now it is done.”

Bob Dylan es bien conocido por ser completamente elusivo a la hora de hablar sobre cualquier tema. Artista de la evasión y el misterio, se pasó décadas esquivando preguntas sobre su propia obra con respuestas crípticas o directamente guardando silencio. Sin embargo, hay una excepción a esa regla: cuando se trata de músicos a los […]
