As part of BLACKPINK, JISOO is one of four. Now, the same goes for her latest campaign with fashion house Self-Portrait, in which she’s set to star as a quartet of “cinematic characters” in a series of short films, which Billboard can exclusively announce.

The campaign begins with JISOO — who in 2024 became the first musician to be the face of the London fashion house — in “The Enigma,” the first of the four videos. Shot in the style of an audition tape by Oliver Hadlee Pearch, it shows the performer modeling Self-Portrait’s faux leather skirt and checkered knit blazer, appearing bubbly and confident in herself in front of the camera.

“Maybe we’re not supposed to have everything figured out,” JISOO muses in the clip. “I always liked wandering.”

For the partnership, JISOO worked closely with the brand’s founder and creative director, Han Chong. In a statement, the K-pop star said, “I was so excited to star in this new series of short films … it allowed me to try something completely new, and each character I played required something different from me.”

“The evolution of the character’s wardrobe was how I found the nuance in each performance, and it was a real collaboration with Han and I on finding the subtlety in each role I was going to be playing,” she continued. “I have worn Self-Portrait for many years, and the pieces make me feel like I can do anything — this time, they let me dream that I could be anyone.”

Chong also praised the global star in a statement. “Having worked with JISOO for a few years now, she really has become a big part of our brand’s story and fabric. For this latest project together, we wanted to do something that meets JISOO where she is today; an incredible artist with range and a chameleonic edge as a performer,” he said. “We always talk about the Self-Portrait woman as being multifaceted, and JISOO really brings that to life through her performance in these short films.”

JISOO’s latest fashion campaign comes as she’s embarking on a new solo era musically. On Friday (Sept. 4), she released single “Click.”

Ariana Grande surprise-released a live album on Tuesday morning (Sept. 8) featuring all of the tracks from her most recent petal studio album. petal (The Complete Live Album) was released as an iTunes exclusive and announced in an early morning post from the singer revealing that it features all 12 songs from the studio LP.

The album — available here — features live versions of the tracks “Kiss Me,” “Petal,” “Stay,” “Oh Well,” “Big Feelings,” “Freak” and “Warning Signs,” as well as a version of the LP’s lead single, “Hate That I Made You Love Me,” recorded during a rehearsal for the singer’s just-concluded Eternal Sunshine tour. Arianators will also hear live takes on “Like I Do,” “Never Get Over Me,” “Bad Thing (Bunny Hop)” and “Nowhere, Nobody.”

Grande wrapped her Eternal Sunshine tour on Sept. 1 with her final show in London, where she once again made another tweak to her “Thank U, Next” lyrics in honor of on-again boyfriend Ricky Alvarez. “Wrote some songs about Ricky/ I’m tryna make him my last,” she sang in her latest revamp of the song, adding more fuel to the fiery rumors that she and her ex are potentially rekindling their romance.

Ari and Alvarez dated from 2015 to 2016 for about a year, after meeting and working together on Grande’s Honeymoon Tour and it has appeared lately as if they are giving it another shot. Last month, the singer posted several selfies, including ones in which she was cuddling with former backup dancer Alvarez.

Grande announced in early August that she’s taking “a step back” from public engagements amid “ongoing public scrutiny,” including dropping out of her planned co-starring role in the West End revival of Sunday in the Park With George; her Wicked co-star Jonathan Bailey recently announced that he too is dropping out of the production.

Grande released her eighth studio album, petal, in July; the LP debuted atop the Billboard 200 with 295,000 total album-equivalent units earned.

Jon Small, the drummer and early Billy Joel bandmate whose musical and personal history with the Piano Man stretched from Long Island rock clubs to one of Joel’s most painful early chapters, has died.

Joel announced Small’s death in a tribute shared on social media. Small’s age and cause of death were not known at press time.

Before Joel became one of pop and rock’s most recognizable singer-songwriters, he and Small played together in the Hassles, a Long Island band that released two albums in the late 1960s. The pair later formed Attila, a hard-rock duo built around drums and organ, releasing a self-titled album in 1970.

Their partnership ended abruptly after Joel fell in love with Small’s wife, Elizabeth Weber, while Joel was living with the couple. The episode — long part of Joel’s lore — is revisited in the recent documentary And So It Goes, where both men reflected on the fallout with striking candor.

“Elizabeth was very important to me, but I think I was not the guy she hoped I would be,” Small said in the documentary. “I kept seeing that Billy was not the same guy. Something was the matter. And Billy one day came up to me, became a little honest, and said to me, ‘I’m in love with your wife.’ So it was a very devastating thing for me, because these were basically my two best friends.”

Joel also addressed the affair in the film, saying, “I felt very, very guilty about it. They had a child. I felt like a homewrecker. I was just in love with a woman, and I got punched in the nose, which I deserved. Jon was very upset. I was very upset.”

The affair led to Attila’s breakup and temporarily ended Joel and Small’s friendship. Joel later married Weber in 1973; the couple divorced in 1982.

Despite the rupture, Small and Joel eventually reconciled. In And So It Goes, Small said he came to understand the pain Joel carried from hurting him.

“He never really said anything to me,” Small said. “The only practical answer I can give as to why Billy took it so hard was because he loved me that much and that it killed him to hurt me that much. Eventually I forgave him.”

Small later worked behind the camera on several Joel projects, including the concert films Live From Long Island and Live at Shea Stadium. He also directed Joel’s “Baby Grand” video and went on to direct music videos for Reba McEntire, Enrique Iglesias and Brooks & Dunn.

Small’s death comes as Joel’s early years have been revisited through And So It Goes, which traces the singer’s rise from his pre-fame bands through the career that made him one of the most successful recording artists of his generation.

Joel’s Billboard history includes 43 entries on the Billboard Hot 100, including 13 top 10 hits and three No. 1s: “It’s Still Rock and Roll to Me,” “Tell Her About It” and “We Didn’t Start the Fire.” He was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 1999.

At the time of publication, additional details about Small’s death had not been announced.

The Spice Girls, but make it pumpkin. In a hilarious new commercial for Dunkin’, Ginger Spice and Baby Spice reunite to help usher in the brand’s fall flavors while revealing that there’s a band member fans don’t know about, played by Rachel Dratch.

Premiering on Tuesday (Sept. 8), the ad finds Geri Halliwell-Horner and Emma Bunton seated for a mock documentary-style interview, during which Baby Spice reveals: “A lot of people don’t know we originally had a sixth member.”

That member’s stage name? Pumpkin Spice. Dressed in a puffy orange getup, Dratch sips on a pumpkin-flavored iced latte while recalling her fictional favorite songs from her short-lived girl group career. “‘Don’t Squash My Love,’ ‘Walk Through My Pumpkin Patch,’” she listed off. “My favorite? ‘Bumpin’ Pumpkins.’”

“I left the band to focus on lattes,” Dratch, aka Pumpkin Spice, adds in an exaggerated British accent.

“We were devastated,” Halliwell-Horner says before playfully referencing absent members Victoria Beckham, Mel B and Mel C. “The others still won’t talk to her.”

The clip comes as Dunkin’ welcomes its autumnal offerings back to the menu, including pumpkin spice, pie and patch latte flavors as well as pumpkin bakery treats. In a statement, Dratch said of the campaign, “I think Pumpkin Spice was just ahead of her time.”

“Maybe a little too seasonal, but definitely ahead of the curve,” the SNL alum continued jokingly. “She left to focus on lattes, and honestly, I respect that kind of commitment. Getting to bring Pumpkin Spice back with Emma and Geri for Dunkin’ was so much fun. It feels like she’s finally getting the recognition she deserves.”

As for Bunton, the seasonal flavor reminds her of some special memories shared with loved ones. “The first time I tried a pumpkin spice latte was with my family in New York, which is probably why I love it so much,” she tells Billboard, noting that it’s also her go-to drink. “It really is autumn in a cup!”

When it comes to Halliwell-Horner, she may be starring in a Dunkin’ ad, but her beverage of choice is a little more British, though the sweet pastries do speak to her. “If I’m feeling ravenous, I could go for a full dozen,” she shares. “I always enjoy a cup of tea — sometimes I might even dunk it.”

The Spice Girls add their names to a lineup of A-listers who’ve partnered with the coffee chain. Sabrina Carpenter starred in campaigns last year and in 2024, while Ice Spice, Jelly Roll, Megan Thee Stallion and more have all come aboard to advertise their favorite Dunkin’ indulgences in recent years.

And though Ginger and Baby Spice seem to regret parting ways with Pumpkin Spice before hitting it big, the faux sixth member’s absence didn’t stop the Spice Girls from taking over pop music in the ’90s. The quintet had three top 10 hits in 1997 alone, including four-week Billboard Hot 100-topping single “Wannabe.”

Australian Crawl and Men at Work have added two new co-headline shows to their 2026 Australian run, following strong demand for their previously announced Red Hot Summer Tour dates.

The new concerts are set for Friday, Nov. 20, at Brisbane’s Riverstage and Sunday, Nov. 22, at Melbourne’s Sidney Myer Music Bowl. The two bands will be joined at the newly announced shows by Vika & Linda and Boom Crash Opera.

The additions follow a run of sold-out dates across the Red Hot Summer Tour, including stops at Sandstone Point, Berry, Manly, the Hunter Valley, Coolangatta, Mornington and Swan Valley. Shows in Toowoomba, Ballarat and Glenelg are also selling fast, according to the announcement.

Presales for the newly announced Brisbane and Melbourne concerts begin Wednesday, Sept. 9, at 10 a.m. local time via Red Hot Summer Tour and Face to Face Touring. General onsale begins Thursday, Sept. 10, at noon local time.

The 2026 shows will bring together two of Australia’s best-known bands from the late ’70s and ’80s. For Australian Crawl, the run centers on the reunion of James Reyne and David Reyne, who will perform together in celebration of the band’s catalog. The shows mark the first time in more than 40 years that the original members will share the stage, according to the announcement.

The Australian Crawl lineup for the upcoming shows also includes John Watson, who played with the band from 1983 to 1986, alongside Brett Kingman, Josh Owen, Andrew McIvor, Sean Johnson, Melinda Jackson and Nicole Kurta.

Men at Work remain one of Australia’s biggest U.S. crossover stories. The band topped the Billboard Hot 100 with both “Who Can It Be Now?” and “Down Under,” while their debut album, Business as Usual, spent 15 weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 in the early 1980s.

The co-headline dates add to a wider summer schedule for both acts, with the Red Hot Summer Tour also featuring Birds of Tokyo, Eskimo Joe and Killing Heidi’s Ella Hooper on select dates.

The newly announced dates are below.

Nov. 20 — Brisbane, Australia @ Riverstage
Nov. 22 — Melbourne, Australia @ Sidney Myer Music Bowl
