Slayyyter might be actually kinda famous, but now she has something even better: a stamp of approval from Lady Gaga.

Mother Monster gave the pop singer a major shout-out in a new TikTok posted Thursday (Sept. 3), soundtracking a makeup tutorial with Slayyyter’s “I’M ACTUALLY KINDA FAMOUS.” In the video, Gaga shows off what she calls her “daily holy trinity” — concealer, contour and lip liner — while getting ready in under a minute.

But it was Gaga’s comments section that delivered the real crossover.

“I know Slayyyter is going to burst into flames when she sees her song was used,” one fan wrote underneath the video. Gaga then responded with possibly the only thing that could make the moment more exciting for Slayyyter: “I love Slayyyter,” followed by three black-heart emojis.

Slayyyter didn’t literally combust, but she did promptly freak out and respond. The rising pop star reposted Gaga’s comment to her Instagram Story, writing in all caps, “I LOVE GAGA.” But the crossover didn’t end there.

The singer later made her way into Gaga’s TikTok comments herself, writing, “OMG… OMG.” Gaga was quick to respond, and she couldn’t resist slipping in a reference to another Slayyyter song.

“You mean… Yes GODDD!!!! You’re the best,” Gaga wrote, alluding to Slayyyter’s WOR$T GIRL IN AMERICA track “YES GODDD.”

This public declaration from one of pop music’s most prominent figures is just one of many prizes Slayyyter has collected within the year. She recently earned her first entry on the Billboard Hot 100 when “brand new chanel$” charted at No. 98 during the week of Aug. 15. Her latest album, WOR$T GIRL IN AMERICA, debuted at No. 1 on Billboard’s Top Dance Albums chart.

So, yes, Gaga picked an especially appropriate soundtrack. “I’M ACTUALLY KINDA FAMOUS” is already one of the most deliciously self-aware titles in Slayyyter’s catalog. Now, one of pop’s biggest stars has given it a co-sign.

Take a look at the interaction below.

KISS scores its highest-charted title on Billboard’s Top Album Sales chart in more than a decade, as KISS Destroys Anaheim ’76 debuts at No. 8 on the list dated Sept. 5. The archival live project brings the band to its highest rank on the tally since 2012, with the group’s final studio album, Monster, debuted and peaked at No. 3 in October 2012.

KISS Destroys Anaheim ’76 commemorates the 50th anniversary of the group’s Aug. 20, 1976 show at the Anaheim Stadium, where the band played to its largest audience at the time: 42,000. As part of KISS’ The Spirit of ’76 Tour (also known as the Destroyer Tour), the recording was newly mixed for its first official public release across an array of physical and digital formats.

The album boasts recordings of KISS favorites like “Detroit Rock City,” “Strutter,” “Shout It Out Loud” and “Rock and Roll All Nite.” KISS Destroys Anaheim ’76 also debuts on an array of other Billboard charts: Indie Store Album Sales (No. 8), Vinyl Albums (No. 16), Top Hard Rock Albums (No. 12), Top Rock & Alternative Albums (No. 48) and the overall Billboard 200 (No. 173). On the latter, the set marks KISS’ 37th chart entry

Elsewhere on the Sept. 5-dated Top Album Sales chart, ENHYPEN nabs its fifth No. 1 with THE SIN : BLISS’ chart-topping arrival, while Weezer and Twenty One Pilots see their latest projects make top 10 bows at Nos. 4 and 5. Check out the full chart.

Billboard’s Top Album Sales chart ranks the top-selling albums of the week based only on pure album sales (physical and digital download purchases combined). The chart’s history dates to May 25, 1991, the first week Billboard began tabulating charts with electronically monitored piece count information from SoundScan, now Luminate. Pure album sales were the sole measurement utilized by the Billboard 200 albums chart through the list dated Dec. 6, 2014, after which that chart switched to a methodology that blends album sales with track equivalent album (TEA) units and streaming equivalent album (SEA) units.

Ciara Miller might have found her perfect first dance song ahead of her Dancing With the Stars stint, thanks to Sabrina Carpenter fans.

In an interview with Entertainment Tonight posted Wednesday (Sept. 2), the reality star reacted to audience members requesting that she and pro partner Brandon Armstrong break it down to “Taste” for their first televised performance on the competition. “Oh my gosh!” Miller gasped. “That is so funny. That is amazing.”

“The audience is messy!” she said, meanwhile the gears appeared to be turning in her head as she considered the possibility. “I love it. Messy boots.”

For the uninitiated, Miller’s personal life was thrust into the center of pop culture discourse earlier this year after it came out that her Summer House castmates Amanda Batula and West Wilson had begun an intimate relationship without her knowledge. Given that Batula was Miller’s good friend and Wilson was Miller’s ex, Miller felt a lot of hurt and betrayal over the situation — which she unleashed during a memorable, heated season reunion in May.

And as fans have evidently pointed out, “Taste” is the perfect song for the situation. “Now I’m gone, but you’re still layin’/ Next to me, one degree of separation,” Carpenter sings on the Short n’ Sweet track, which hit No. 2 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 2024. “I heard you’re back together, and if that’s true/ You’ll just have to taste me when he’s kissin’ you.”

For the record, Armstrong is here for it as well. “I’m just here for support and vibes,” he told ET. “I’m just down.”

“We’re gonna leave it all out on the dance floor,” Miller added. “It’s gonna be healing. We’re gonna cry, we’re gonna laugh. It’s gonna be a good time.”

The interview comes on the same day the full DWTS season 35 cast was announced. In addition to Miller, Taylor Hanson, Guillermo Rodriguez, Maura Higgins, Harry Shum Jr., Julia Stiles, Jenna Dewan, Tyler Cameron, Conner Leavitt and more will compete.

Even after dropping three albums in May, Drake isn’t satisfied.

He’s been teasing what appears to be a project titled Fear of Missing Out, and the 6 God officially set the rollout in motion on Thursday (Sept. 3) when he announced plans for a YouTube livestream slated for Sept. 15 at 9 p.m. ET.

Drizzy posted a Fear of Missing Out poster to Instagram and revealed the date of the livestream without any other details. The only other possible hints were an island and Ferris wheel emojis in the caption.

“You really said steak, lobster and shrimp, now we’re getting caviar. You’re making sure we’re well fed this year,” one fan wrote.

Other members of the OVO hive predicted that a single will arrive during the stream and an album will be in tow not too far down the line.

Drake made plenty of history in May when he released ICEMAN, HABIBTI and MAID OF HONOUR in May, becoming the first to ever occupy the top three slots of the Billboard 200 albums chart simultaneously.

“Janice STFU” became the 14th Billboard Hot 100 No. 1 hit of Drizzy’s career, which broke a tie with Michael Jackson to give the 6 God the most among male soloists, as he charted a record-high of 42 songs on the chart in a single week.

ICEMAN topped the Billboard 200 to notch Drake his 15th No. 1, which broke a tie with Jay-Z for the most among rappers. ICEMAN has had staying power, as the album is spending a 13th week atop the Top Rap Albums chart, which is a career best for Drake.

Drizzy performed a few songs from ICEMAN in an arena setting for the first time on Monday night (Aug. 31), when he made a guest appearance at Don Toliver’s OCTANE World Tour stop in Toronto at Scotiabank Arena.
