The Great Divide, the new album from Noah Kahan, tops this week’s fan-voted new music poll.

Listeners voted in a poll published Friday (April 24) on Billboard, choosing the Vermont singer-songwriter’s latest full-length release as their favorite this week.

The Great Divide led the way in a week that also saw new music streaming in from Kehlani, Hayley Kiyoko and Gigi Perez, Suki Waterhouse and more. At the poll’s closing time on Sunday, Kahan reached the summit with 60% of the vote.

Arriving four years after breakout album Stick Season, the folk-rock artist’s The Great Divide made its official debut on Friday. Kahan’s new 17-track set was proceeded by its title track, “The Great Divide,” which has become his highest-charting hit so far on Billboard‘s Hot 100 songs chart. (The song reached No. 6 in February upon its release.)

Kahan co-produced The Great Divide with Gabe Simon as well as Aaron Dessner — whose Long Pond Studio in upstate New York became the setting where Kahan recorded part of the new album.

Besides keeping busy with new music, fans have a tour to look forward to, with dates kicking off June 11 in Orlando, Fla., and running through December. Kahan will be playing cities across North America before heading to Australia and New Zealand, and then making it to over to Europe.

Among the new releases trailing behind The Great Divide are Kehlani’s self-titled new album, with 17% of the vote; Hayley Kiyoko and Gigi Perez’s collab “Collide,” with 4% of the vote, and Suki Waterhouse’s song “Tiny Raisin,” with 2% of the vote.

SNL UK broadcast Foo Fighters‘ first live performance of material from their just-released Your Favorite Toy album on Saturday night (April 25).

The band played the high-energy “Caught in the Echo,” which is the opening number and first single from their twelfth studio album, on the new English offshoot of Saturday Night Live.

Foo Fighters returned for their second performance slot of the night with the earnest “Child Actor,” a track on the second half of their new record that has Grohl ruminating on growing up in a very public way. (Though he was in his early 20s when Nirvana broke through in the beginning of the ’90s, he applies the metaphor of childhood fame here: “I was a child actor, a face on a wall/ Holding my breath as I wait for the curtain to fall/ Was it good enough?/ Was it ever good enough?/ Anything, be the person that you want,” he sings, later pleading on repeat, “Turn the cameras off, turn the cameras off.”)

The April 25 episode of SNL UK was hosted by actress Nicola Coughlan, whose monologue featured a cameo from Grohl in a bit that had her gallivanting backstage with special guest Jimmy Fallon.

Fallon nudged the starstruck host to approach the Foo Fighters frontman and ask him to be her best friend. “We’re live. He has to say yes,” Fallon pointed out.

Your Favorite Toy is the followup to Foo Fighters’ 2023 album, But Here We Are, which cracked the top 10 of the Billboard 200 upon release (landing at No. 8). The rockers hit the road on tour beginning April 28 in Bridgeport, Connecticut.

Madonna continues to tease her upcoming Confessions II album.

In the early hours of Saturday morning (April 25), the Queen of Pop made a surprise appearance at the invite-only Club Confessions Los Angeles party at The Abbey in West Hollywood, where she previewed two new songs from the follow-up to her 2005 album Confessions on a Dance Floor.

As the clock neared 1 a.m., the pop superstar appeared in the DJ booth alongside Stuart Price, the producer behind both Confessions albums.

“Hello, children, mutha is here to save you,” Madonna told the star-studded crowd, according to Variety. “Are you ready to dance for me? Come on meet me on the dance floor. Alright, let’s go gays, come on! Don’t let me down, gays.”

Sporting a pink bustier, Madonna previewed previously unheard tracks “Love Sensation” and “Freedom,” along with the recently released banger “I Feel So Free” and 2005’s “Hung Up.”

The singer’s Confessions II album is slated to arrive July 3 through Warner Records. It marks her first album since 2019’s Madame X and serves as a sequel to the Billboard 200 No. 1 album Confessions on a Dance Floor.

Elsewhere during her set, Madonna shouted, “Don’t wait. Take it. Don’t wait. Take it. Take your freedom! Put your hands up! Put your hands up!” She also urged partygoers to “put your phones down” and be present in the music, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

Saturday’s party also featured DJ sets by Romy and Mez Monty, and doubled as a birthday celebration for Abbey owner Tristan Schukraft.

The star-studded guest list reportedly included Madonna’s daughter Lourdes Leon, her boyfriend Akeem Morris, Cara Delevingne, Tom Daley, Tori Spelling, Lily Allen, Sky Ferreira, Addison Rae, Kali Uchis, Julia Fox, Lola Young, Bebe Rexha, Jeremy Scott, and Vivian Jenna Wilson.

RuPaul’s Drag Race stars Willam, Trinity the Tuck, Morgan McMichaels, Gottmik, Symone, Kelly Mantle and Courtney Act were also spotted in the crowd, along with TikTok creator Harry Daniels.

Megan Thee Stallion got emotional during her Moulin Rouge! The Musical performance following her breakup with Klay Thompson.

In fan-captured footage from her Saturday (April 25) appearance at the Tony Award-winning Broadway show in New York City, the 31-year-old rapper is seen tearing up onstage during the curtain call hours after announcing her split from the NBA star amid cheating allegations.

Still in costume, the “WAP” hitmaker turned away from the applauding audience to wipe away her tears as she received a standing ovation.

The three-time Billboard Hot 100 chart-topper recently made her Broadway debut in Moulin Rouge! as the first female-identifying performer in the role of Zidler, beginning an eight-week engagement on March 24 that runs through May 17 at New York’s Al Hirschfeld Theatre.

Leading up to Saturday’s show, Megan confirmed her split from Thompson on social media.

“Cheating, had me around your whole family playing house… got ‘cold feet,’” she wrote on her Instagram Stories. “Holding you down through all your HORRIBLE mood swings and treatment towards me during your basketball season now you don’t know if you can be ‘monogamous’????”

The rapper further addressed the breakup with the Dallas Mavericks player in a statement obtained by Billboard.

“I’ve made the decision to end my relationship with Klay,” Megan said. “Trust, fidelity and respect are non-negotiable for me in a relationship, and when those values are compromised, there’s no real path forward. I’m taking this time to prioritize myself and move ahead with peace and clarity.”

The hip-hop star and shooting guard began dating in summer 2025, with Megan once describing their first meeting as “a meet cute” and calling her former partner “the nicest person I’ve ever met in my life.” The pair made their red carpet debut in New York City that July.

Last Thanksgiving, Thompson had named his boat after her (“SS Stallion”), and the couple spent the holiday together with his family.

Earlier this year, Megan said that she was “manifesting my engagement” in a video clip filmed in Milan with Olympic athletes Brittany Bowe and Hilary Knight, who are engaged.

Cyndi Lauper is headlining The Colosseum at Caesers Palace in Las Vegas over a five-night run — and her show will play out however she wants it to.

During the artist’s opening-night set Friday (April 24), showgoers report she was loudly interrupted ahead of singing “Sally’s Pigeons” from 1993’s Hat Full of Stars album. Lauper seemed to be having a storyteller moment — sharing a tidbit about the track with the audience — when someone in the crowd shouted out something unintelligible.

“I don’t know what the f— you’re saying, hun,” Lauper said, as heard in a video recording from the concert posted by TMZ on Saturday. “But please remember where you are, OK? Because if you’re trying to shade me, b—-, I’m gonna come for you. I’m from Brooklyn, and if I wanna f—ing talk, I will do a tap dance if I f—ing want.”

“Sorry, that of course is not part of my people skills,” she joked after that.

Lauper’s Live in Las Vegas show kicked off April 24, with further performances scheduled for April 25, April 29, May 1 and May 2. Though limited to five dates, it marks her career-first Vegas residency; it also gives fans another chance to see her perform live following her Farewell Tour, which wrapped last year.

In 2025, she was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame.

“It’s a community of people, rockers that have changed the world,” Lauper — who, besides being a Hall of Famer and Hot 100 chart topper (“Time After Time,” “True Colours”) is also a Grammy, Emmy and Tony winner — told Billboard of the honor last year. “Here’s the thing: I still believe that rock ‘n’ roll can save the world. I just want people to remember that we did make a difference. We can make a difference if we band together. We must come together as a community and make light and bring people together to make change, to do the good work.”

Stagecoach Festival was briefly evacuated Saturday night after high winds forced organizers to halt performances and clear the festival grounds, prompting significant changes to the evening’s lineup — including the removal of Journey from the bill.

Following the disruption, updated set times shared by the festival confirmed that Journey, who had been scheduled to perform on the Mustang Stage, would no longer appear Saturday night.

Headliner Lainey Wilson will instead take the Mane Stage an hour later than originally planned, now set for 10:30 p.m., while Riley Green has also been removed from the evening lineup.

Additional adjustments include Pitbull’s late-night Mustang Stage set shifting from an 11 p.m. start to midnight, running through 1 a.m., and Gavin Adcock — whose earlier set was cut short — now joining the Whiskey Jam All-Star Sing-Along in the Palomino Tent later in the evening.

The evacuation was triggered by high winds that intensified across the Empire Polo Club in Indio, California, where the festival is held. An “emergency evacuation” message appeared on screens across the site, instructing attendees to “move quickly and calmly to the nearest exit,” while alerts sent via the festival’s official app directed festivalgoers to leave the area.

The disruption affected multiple stages, with the Mane Stage between sets at the time the evacuation notice was issued. Winds had been building throughout the day, with gusts increasing into the evening under a regional wind advisory.

Billboard’s Jessica Nicholson, who was on-site, described the situation unfolding at the Palomino Stage, where Adcock’s performance was halted.

“I was at the Palomino Stage when they stopped Gavin Adcock’s show,” Nicholson reported. “The screens on either side of the Palomino stage lit up red and had a message that said ‘Stage Area Closed, please keep away from this area,’ then it later said to evacuate the area.”

Video from attendees showed large crowds exiting the venue, though the atmosphere remained largely calm as festivalgoers moved toward exits.

Stagecoach later confirmed via social media that the festival would resume shortly, writing that it was “working to open doors and prep the site for your safety,” before reopening the gates later in the evening. Updated set times were subsequently posted across the festival’s social channels, reflecting the revised schedule.

Stagecoach, one of the largest country music festivals in the United States, is held annually at the same site as the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival and draws tens of thousands of attendees.

Megan Thee Stallion and Klay Thompson have called it quits. The rapper confirmed their split Saturday (April 25), shortly after alleging Thompson cheated in a message posted earlier via Instagram Stories.

“I’ve made the decision to end my relationship with Klay,” Megan said in a statement obtained by Billboard. “Trust, fidelity and respect are non-negotiable for me in a relationship, and when those values are compromised, there’s no real path forward. I’m taking this time to prioritize myself and move ahead with peace and clarity.”

An Instagram Stories update, which is a temporary post, on Megan’s account first addressed her breakup with the NBA player on Saturday.

“Cheating, had me around your whole family playing house… got ‘cold feet,’” the block of text read. “Holding you down through all your HORRIBLE mood swings and treatment towards me during your basketball season now you don’t know if you can be ‘monogamous’????”

She closed the post with “b—- I need a REAL break after this one .. by yall.”

The music artist, who’s performing in Broadway’s Moulin Rouge! through mid-May, and the Dallas Mavericks shooting guard started dating in summer 2025 — with Meg once recalling their first time connecting as “a meet cute” and once describing her former beau as “the nicest person I’ve ever met in my life.” They had their red carpet debut in New York City that July.

By Thanksgiving, Thompson had named his boat after his girlfriend (“SS Stallion”), and the couple had spent a holiday together with Thompson’s family.

In February 2026, Meg quipped that she was “manifesting my engagement” (presumably to Klay) in a video clip filmed in Milan with Olympic athletes Brittany Bowe and Hilary Knight, who are engaged.

Ella Langley had a surprise in store for her Stagecoach debut.

While some fans may have expected Morgan Wallen, the 26-year-old country star instead brought out comedian and podcaster Theo Von during her Friday (April 24) set in Indio, California.

Following performances of “Bottom of Your Boots” and “Broken,” from her just-released album Dandelion, as well as “20-20” from the deluxe reissue Still Hungover, Langley welcomed Von to the stage for a duet of her Riley Green collaboration, “You Look Like You Love Me.”

After reaching the second verse — typically reserved for Green — Langley invited Von onstage. Dressed fittingly in a denim shirt, blue jeans and a cowboy hat, he jumped right in.

“And that’s when I realized that she was every cowboy’s dream come true,” a thrilled Von declared, pointing to Langley.

The pair then launched into the chorus as festivalgoers sang along, “You look like you love me/ You look like you want me to want you to come on home.”

Langley, who recently appeared on Von’s This Past Weekend podcast, joked as he exited the stage, “Bet you didn’t expect that… keep ’em guessin’!”

“You Look Like You Love Me” reached No. 1 on Billboard’s Country Airplay chart in December 2024.

Langley closed her Stagecoach set with “Choosin’ Texas” — which recently logged a seventh nonconsecutive week atop the Billboard Hot 100 — and “Weren’t for the Wind.”

The singer-songwriter is currently dominating both the Hot 100 and the Billboard 200, with Dandelion debuting at No. 1. She also recently premiered her new duet, “I Can’t Love You Anymore,” with Wallen during his stadium show in Alabama on April 18.
