Don't believe everything you hear. That's the word from Céline Dion's representatives, who are warning fans about "unsanctioned, AI-generated music purporting to contain Céline Dion's musical performances, and name and likeness." These tracks are "currently circulating online and across various digital service providers. Please be advised that these recordings are fake and not approved, and are not songs from her official discography."

A five-time Grammy winner, Dion has one of the most famous voices in music and recorded some of the most iconic songs of the 1990s, including "Because You Loved Me" and "My Heart Will Go On." But her musical output has slowed in recent years as Dion has struggled with stiff-person syndrome, an affliction she was diagnosed with in 2022 and which affects her singing voice. "I’ll be on stage. I don’t know when exactly, but trust me I will scream it out loud," she told the BBC last year.

All eyes and ears in London were on the Brit Awards 2025 on Saturday night, with Charli Xcx leaving the 45th edition of the ceremony with four newly won trophies, plus a fifth previously announced one, and Chappell Roan receiving two honors. The Brit Awards, presented by the British Phonographic Industry (BPI), took place at the O2 Arena, honoring the best in British and international music.

Charli Xcx had entered the evening leading the nominations with five, while Dua Lipa, The Last Dinner Party and Ezra Collective received four nominations each.

Hosting the ceremony was Jack Whitehall, who met Squid Game Soldiers, aka Triangles, in a video intro and joked about being a Taylor Swift fan.

Late in the show, Whitehall struck a much more somber note when he introduced a special video tribute to Liam Payne. He called the late One Direction star “a very special person who meant so...

“We had a blast — and you were the blasters!” Paul McCartney told the crowd at the end of his surprise Tuesday show in New York City. McCartney played a spontaneous gig at the Bowery Ballroom, a beloved rock bar on the Lower East Side that holds only 575 people. He was presumably warming up to play the Saturday Night Live anniversary this weekend. But he blew the minds of a few hundred shocked but lucky fans, none of whom woke up that day imagining they might be in store for a McCartney show.

Studiocanal is heading into a new era. Not only is the Paddington producer coming off the back of a banner year, with its titles having grossed close to $300M at the global box office in 2024 (up 94% year-on-year), but in December its parent company Canal+ made a headline-grabbing debut on the London Stock Exchange after it was spun off from Vincent Bolloré’s French media conglomerate Vivendi.

While the launch was well below the €6.851Bn (£5.71Bn) valuation Vivendi had hoped for – Canal+ floated on the Lse with an initial market value of £2.5Bn ($3.1Bn) – internally, the IPO (which marked the largest debut on the Lse since 2022) is viewed as a promising next step for the company as it continues the growth trajectory it has been on across the last two decades.

In addition to navigating controversial local shifts in media windowing on its home turf, the French film industry’s biggest...

Beyoncé won her first ever Album of the Year Grammy over the weekend, with her Cowboy Carter besting the likes of Taylor Swift, Chappell Roan, Sabrina Carpenter, and André 3000. But it was Kendrick Lamar – who will be headlining the halftime show at Super Bowl Lix – who was the big winner, taking home five trophies out of just as many nominations. Others with multiple wins included St. Vincent, Charlie Xcx and Jon Batiste.

Lamar’s “Not Like Us” would win a couple of key Grammy awards last night: Record of the Year and Song of the Year, beating out everybody from Beyoncé herself to The Beatles. The Beatles would end up taking Best Rock Performance for “Now and Then”, with Green Day, Pearl Jam and St. Vincent all unable to come out on top of the Fab Four (give or take). Also on the legends front, the Rolling Stones won...

Beyoncé and Kendrick Lamar were among the big winners at the 2025 Grammy Awards.

For the first time in her legendary career, Beyoncé took home Album of the Year. After being nominated four previous times in the category, Queen Bey finally broke through with her country album Cowboy Carter.

Beyoncé also made Grammy history as the first Black artist to win Best Country Album, and her collaboration with Miley Cyrus, II Most Wanted,” was named Best Country Duo/Group Performance.

Kendrick Lamar was the night’s other big winner, as his industry-shaking Drake diss track, “Not Like Us,” swept all five categories that it was nominated in: Song of the Year, Record of the Year, Best Rap Song, Best Rap Performance, and Best Music Video.

Rounding out the Big Four Categories, Chappell Roan was christened Best New Artist.

In a ceremony that alternated between subdued and sublime, reverent and rocking, the 2025 Grammys attempted to offer thoughtful tribute to the victims of the Los Angeles wildfires while also honoring the best in music. Fittingly, the biggest ovations came at the end of Sunday’s ceremony, as the gathered music royalty rose to applaud Los Angeles County firefighters, who took the stage to present the final award, and then again to celebrate Beyoncé, who claimed the night’s ultimate prize: Album of the Year.

That win, for her country-crossover sensation, Cowboy Carter, was her first triumph in the Album of the Year category after four prior losses. Beyoncé, who entered the evening as the most-nominated performer with 11 bids, also took home awards for Best Country Album and Best Country Duo/Group Performance with Miley Cyrus for the track “II Most Wanted.” Queen Bey now has 35 career Grammys, extending her record...

The 2025 Grammys were handed out Sunday, with Beyoncé taking home the top award of the night for album of the year and Kendrick Lamar sweeping all the categories in which he was nominated, including song and record of the year.

Beyoncé won album of the year along with best country album for Cowboy Carter. During the premiere ceremony, she won her first award of the night, taking home her first country Grammy for best country duo/group performance for “II Most Wanted” featuring Miley Cyrus, making her the first Black woman to win a country Grammy in 50 years. The album of the year award was presented by members of the Los Angeles Fire Department as a way to recognize them for their efforts to contain the wildfires that blazed through the city last month.

During the live telecast on CBS, Lamar won both song and record of the year for “Not Like Us,...

One of the top awards of the night, record of the year, has been awarded to Kendrick Lamar for “Not Like Us” during the 2025 Grammy Awards.

After being presented the award by Miley Cyrus, who quipped that she may just say Beyoncé’s name instead, she eventually revealed that Lamar won the award. Once he made his way up to the stage to accept the golden gramophone trophy, Lamar said he’s “gonna dedicate this one [award] to the city” of Los Angeles.

“Compton, Watts, Long Beach, Inglewood, Hollywood, out to the Valley, Pacoima, Ie, San Bernardino, all that,” he says. “You know, this is my neck of the woods that held me down … since I was in the studio scrapping to write the best raps and all that, in order to do records like these.”

Lamar continues, “So I can’t give enough thanks, you know, to these places that...

The Beatles are Grammy winners. That goes without saying, but the fact that the legendary band is still collecting trophies in 2025 is quite a feat considering it was 60 years ago that they won Best New Artist from the Recording Academy. This year they received two nominations: Record of the Year and Best Rock Performance for “Now and Then.” They won in the latter category during pre-televised portion of the awards, bringing their all-time total to eight.

“Play the Beatles’ music to your kids,” said John Lennon‘s son Sean Ono Lennon, who accepted the award. “I feel like the world can’t afford to forget about people like the Beatles. We need this music in the world; we need peace and love.”

It’s surprising that the Beatles haven’t won more given their world renown and influence on rock ‘n’ roll. Before Sunday, the band had only collected seven previous trophies,...

The Beatles‘ unearthed 2023 single “Now And Then” marked their first new song since 1996, and now, it’s led to the Fab Four’s first Grammy win in 28 years.

At the Premiere Ceremony for the 2025 Grammy Awards, The Beatles won the award for Best Rock Performance for “Now And Then,” beating out songs from Pearl Jam, Idles, The Black Keys, St. Vincent, and Green Day.

Neither surviving members of The Beatles (Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr) were present at the ceremony, so John Lennon’s son Sean Ono Lennon — who won earlier in the evening for Best Boxed or Special Limited Edition Package for the expanded reissue of his father’s 1973 LP Mind Games — accepted the award on The Beatles’ behalf.

“It’s really incredible… The Beatles have done so much incredible work and they’re still in the culture and people still listen to the music,” Ono Lennon said. “As far as I’m concerned,...

The biggest night in music is finally here! Tonight, the top names in music gathered for the 67th Grammy Awards.

The competition is stiff this year, with Beyoncé leading all nominees with 11, thanks to Cowboy Carter. She scored nods in not only the three major categories — Song, Record, and Album of the Year — but four different genre categories: Country, Pop, Rap, and Americana. Her 11 nominations also made her the most nominated artist in Grammy history with 99 (she previously shared the record, 88, with her husband, Jay-Z).

Lamar, meanwhile, was one of...

The 2025 Grammys are airing tonight, and plenty of people are placing their bets for the winners of the ceremony’s major categories.

According to the official Gold Derby odds, Album of the Year will finally go to Beyoncé for Cowboy Carter based on the latest projections.

The company also projects that Sabrina will win for Record of the Year with “Espresso,” while Chappell will win for “Good Luck, Babe!”

They also have Chappell taking home the Best New Artist award. Do you agree with all the predictions?

Take a look at the latest predictions…

Album Of The Year

Beyoncé,...

Beyoncé, Sabrina Carpenter, and Chappell Roan will be among the top winners at the 2025 Grammys on Sunday, according to the official Gold Derby odds.

The night’s top prize, Album of the Year, will finally go to Beyoncé, based on our latest projections. She has lost four times before, often controversially, to the point that her husband, Jay-Z, called out the Recording Academy onstage while accepting his Dr. Dre Global Impact Award at last year’s show. When her Lemonade lost to Adele‘s 25 in 2017, even Adele admitted in her acceptance speech that Beyoncé deserved the prize. But beware: Beyoncé was the frontrunner in our odds the last three times she lost, and this year she has especially tough competition from Billie Eilish (Hit Me Hard and Soft) and Roan (The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess). See the full category odds below.

Aside from Album of the year,...

The Los Angeles wildfires may have muted the music business’ usual weeklong celebration leading to the 67th annual Grammy Awards, but maybe that’s served to shine a brighter spotlight on music’s biggest night and its nominated artists? In any case, this year’s competition is (Sasha) fierce! When Beyoncé struts into the Crypto.com Arena on Feb. 2, she does so with the most nominations, 11, including three in the top general categories — album, record and song of the year — a feat shared by Taylor Swift, Billie Eilish, Chappell Roan and Sabrina Carpenter (the last two are also up for best new artist). Will Beyoncé finally win album and/or record, two trophies she doesn’t yet have in her case, despite being the winningest artist in Grammy history? Will Swift add a back-to-back Aoty to her collection (this would be her fifth!)? Or will Charli Xcx have everyone seeing lime green?...

When Sean Ono Lennon, the only child of John Lennon and artist/activist Yoko Ono, was growing up, his father’s third solo album, Mind Games, was “just sort of the lore of my family; his music was always playing in the house,” he tells Gold Derby. Mind Games eventually became not only his favorite John Lennon album, but also one of his favorite albums, period, of all time. It was only when Sean began working on Mind Games — The Ultimate Collection (Super Deluxe Edition) that he realized the album had been poorly received and generally misunderstood by both critics and fans at the time of its 1973 release.

So, now that the Mind Games project has been nominated for Best Boxed Set or Limited Edition Package at this year’s Grammy Awards, Sean feels “very vindicated, because I always felt that Mind Games was one of [John’s] best albums and it...

Paul McCartney is certainly set for life, but in a recent interview with the BBC, the former Beatle stumped for protections for younger artists against A.I. and exploitation by tech giants.

“You get young guys, girls, coming up, and they write a beautiful song, and they don’t own it,” he observed. “They don’t have anything to do with it. And anyone who wants can just rip it off,” the 82-year-old said in an interview broadcast Sunday.

“The truth is, the money’s going somewhere. When it gets on the streaming platforms, somebody is getting it, and it should be the person who created it. It shouldn’t be some tech giant somewhere.”

The 18-time Grammy winner spoke out as the U.K. government considers weakening copyright protections there and allowing tech companies to train their A.I. models on creatives’ content unless the originators specifically opt out.

“We’re the people,...

Paul McCartney called on the British government to protect artists in the face of a new copyright law that could allow for AI to “rip off” creators.

Speaking to the BBC, McCartney warned of the bill that would let tech firms train their AI models on copyrighted works — including music — unless the artists explicitly opted out. The Beatles legend said the change, if approved, could severely impact young artists’ career.

“You get young guys and girls coming up, and they write a beautiful song, and they don’t own it.

Paul McCartney has urged that musicians be protected from the effects of proposed changes to AI regulation.

The legendary singer-songwriter, whose own fortune made through his music is estimated at £1billion ($1.25bn), told the BBC that, if the new rules come into effect allowing AI developers to use creators’ content unless they opt out, it will be much harder for musicians to make a living in the way he did as a songwriter starting out.

Former Beatle Sir Paul said:

“When we were kids in Liverpool, we found a job that we loved, but it also paid the bills… You get young guys, girls, coming up, and they write a beautiful song, and they don’t own it, and they don’t have anything to do with it. And anyone who wants can just rip it off.

“The truth is, the money’s going somewhere… somebody’s getting paid, so...

How do you keep yourself so springy? I’d love to know more about whatever it is that has made you so physically capable. BerniceTheCat

As a kid, I did a lot of gymnastics and dance. That sort of physical movement is something I really enjoy, especially when you can apply that foundation into something like this [Kraven the Hunter], where there’s a lot of action and stunts. We wanted Kraven to have a signature style that was kind of animalistic, with a bit of fluidity. So we did a lot of things like quadrupeds (going on all fours), parkour, gymnastics, so it was like nothing you’d ever seen before. It was exciting to have that level of detail within the action. I gained about 40lb (18kg) of...

Paul McCartney has set a New Year’s resolution for himself: Finish his next album.

In a short Q&a with fans on his website, McCartney confirmed that he’s “been working on a lot of songs,” but had to put the album “to the side” because of his Got Back Tour (which launched in 2022 and finally wrapped this month with a special London show featuring Ringo Starr and Ronnie Wood).

“I’m hoping to get back into that and finish up a lot of these songs,” McCartney wrote. “So,...

Paul McCartney has been enjoying rave reviews for his latest concerts – pleasing thousands of fans with an energetic set that encompasses songs from his entire career, including his time with The Beatles, Wings and his own solo material.

McCartney, now 82, showed no sign of flagging during a set-list that kept him on stage for three hours, but Thursday evening brought an even more special moment for the audience at London’s O2 arena.

The singer-songwriter, behind some of the world’s most famous tunes including Let It Be, Bond theme Live and Let Die and his own Maybe I’m Amazed, was a couple of hours into his concert when he told the audience, “I have another surprise for you.”

He continued: “Bringing to the stage the mighty, the one and only, the almighty, Mr Ringo Starr.”

Starr, now aged 84, appeared as a drum kit was wheeled onto stage, and without further ado,...

Paul McCartney closed out his Got Back Tour on Thursday night at London’s O2 and took the opportunity to reunite with his Beatles bandmate Ringo Starr. During the performance, his last gig of the year, McCartney also introduced the Rolling Stones’ Ronnie Wood and played an old bass guitar that was returned to him earlier this year after being stolen.

Starr joined McCartney during the encore. “We’ve got another surprise for you,” McCartney told the audience. “Bring to the stage the mighty, the one and only Mr. Ringo Starr.

He’s not Mariah Carey, but Paul McCartney has his own way of heralding in the holiday season, which he did with a rare performance of “Wonderful Christmastime” at his Manchester concert Saturday.

McCartney and his band were joined by a group of kids from the You Should Be Dancing Theatre Academy for the performance, one of only a dozen or so times that McCartney has played the seasonal classic live during his lengthy solo career.

The last time McCartney unwrapped “Wonderful Christmastime” onstage was back in 2018, when he played...

In news that can only be described as a thriller, new tracks from the late King of Pop Michael Jackson have been discovered in a storage unit. On the tapes that were found are a dozen tracks that have never been made available publicly…and may never be.

The Michael Jackson songs are said to have been recorded between 1989 and 1991, which would put them between Bad and Dangerous. Of note here is that the unit in which the tapes were found once belonged to music producer and songwriter Bryan Loren, who collaborated with Jackson around this time. The most memorable song here is undoubtedly The Simpsons hit “Do the Bartman”. So if we could get audio of Michael Jackson singing “Can I Borrow a Feeling?” or “We Do”, that’d be great…While that’s unlikely, there is a song that apparently features Jackson rapping on a duet with LL Cool J....

The year was 1999 and as congratulations for my group's project getting the highest score in the class, our teacher invited us to have lunch in her room for a week to watch a movie. We chose the Tim Allen/Sam Huntington flick "Jungle 2 Jungle," which includes a character played by a young Leelee Sobieski. As a 9-year-old, Sobieski was my first celebrity crush, and I accidentally mentioned that I had recently seen "Never Been Kissed" and that "she's so pretty" in the movie. One of the kids in my group was also the class bully, and he wasted no time pouncing on this slip-up. "Are you a d**e or something?" It wouldn't be the last time he'd call me that, nor would he be the only one to do it. After years of therapy — I'll fully admit that my years of hypersexual behavior with men in my teens...

Produced by Martin Scorsese, the new documentary Beatles '64 has debuted on Disney+ with an impressive critical score on Rotten Tomatoes. Directed by David Tedeschi, Beatles '64 traces the cultural impact of The Beatles on the United States in the aftermath of their inagural three-week visit to the country in February 1964, following their historic first performances on The Ed Sullivan Show. The film is the latest in a long line of musical documentaries for Scorsese, who directed Rolling Thunder Revue: A Bob Dylan Story by Martin Scorsese, as well as another doc about a Beatle – George Harrison: Living in the Material World.

Beatles '64 debuted on Rotten Tomatoes with a near-perfect score of 97% based on 30 reviews. The Guardian's Peter Bradshaw rated it 5/5 and called it "An amazing split-second of cultural history." The Wrap's Matt Goldberg said, "Perhaps 'Beatles ’64' will only appeal to Beatlemaniacs like me, but...

Ringo Starr has commented on reports that Oscar nominee Barry Keoghan (“The Banshees of Inisherin”) will play him in an upcoming biopic about The Beatles. The Rock and Roll Hall of Famer discussed the speculation in a recent interview with “Entertainment Tonight’s” Kevin Frazier.

“I believe he’s somewhere taking drum lessons,” he said. “I hope not too many!” When asked if he had any advice for the actor, Starr showed off his basic drumming tutorial and added, “I’m not asking you to play like me, but you have to have the movement to do this stuff. A lot of people come to the gigs we’re doing and say, ‘My son is taking drum lessons,’ and I say, ‘Not too many I hope.’ You’ve got to let them get their own feel.”

It’s been 60 years since The Beatles first landed in the United States and Beatlemania is still going strong.

Ringo Starr seems to have confirmed that Barry Keoghan will play him in the Starr-centric film in Sam Mendes’ four-part Beatles biopic.

Speaking with Entertainment Tonight this week, the Beatles drummer weighed in when asked about the rumored casting, telling the network, “I think he’s great, I believe he’s somewhere taking drum lessons. I hope not too many.”

While Starr’s remark gives some validity to the Keoghan rumors that had surfaced recently, another source would not confirm the casting based on Starr’s statements. They told Rolling Stone...

Ringo Starr is driving headlines even in 2024. First, Sam Mendes announced his ambitious project directing four biopics for each of the four Beatles all at the same time. Then, the band managed to snag two(!) Grammy nominations for their AI-assisted final song, "Now And Then." Then today, in a conversation about said noms,...

Elle toasted a starry lineup of leading ladies at its annual Women in Hollywood event Tuesday, recognizing Danielle Deadwyler, Karla Sofía Gascón, Selena Gomez, Mikey Madison, Demi Moore, Julianne Moore, Saoirse Ronan, Zoe Saldaña and Tilda Swinton for their creative and cultural contributions.

The night also brought out a number of A-list presenters, with Cameron Diaz presenting to the Emilia Pérez trio of Gomez, Saldaña and Gascón; John David Washington to Deadwyler; and Willem Dafoe to Madison. Rita Wilson, Rosie O’Donnell and Melanie Griffith also teamed up to present to Moore, marking a reunion of their 1995 film Now and Then.

Taking the stage inside the Four Seasons Hotel in Beverly Hills, Moore recalled how “Now and Then was more than just a film to me, it was an adventure; it was a sweet story about friendship, resilience and navigating the ups and downs of life together. And here we are,...

Cameron Diaz made a rare public appearance Tuesday in Los Angeles to help honor “Emilia Pérez” stars Zoe Saldaña, Selena Gomez and Karla Sofía Gascón at Elle magazine’s Women in Hollywood event.

“It’s really quite incredible to be in this room right now because it reminds me so much of what I love about making movies – the intimacy and the connection,” Diaz said. She praised “Emilia Pérez” as “a powerful exploration of identity, resilience and the courage it takes to break free from the constraints of societal norms, of patriarchal constraints.

“It is also a deeply human story about love and a journey to find one’s authentic self,” Diaz continued. “What these three actresses have accomplished with this film…it is truly remarkable. Together, they have created something unforgettable.”

On the carpet, Gomez told me that the attention she and the film have been getting “has been beautiful and overwhelming,...

You don't often see the great movies coming. Sure, some classics swagger their way into theaters (like "Barbie" and "Oppenheimer" did in 2023), but take a look at the vast majority of the movies on your favorites queue and you'll see titles that arrived with very little fanfare. Warner Bros. didn't expect "L.A. Confidential" to take off like it did, and Columbia Pictures was absolutely stunned when "The Shawshank Redemption" rebounded after a disappointing theatrical release to become one of the most beloved motion pictures in the history of the medium.

Then there's Universal and "Field of Dreams." Kevin Costner was a movie star in 1989 on the strength of "The Untouchables," "No Way Out" and "Bull Durham," but two of those three hits were adult-skewing entertainments that traded heavily on his sex appeal. "Field of Dreams" was ... really, what in...

Paul McCartney wrapped his headlining set at the Corona Capital festival in Mexico City over the weekend with a rendition of his always apt show-closer — the Beatles’ “The End” — featuring guest appearances from Jack White and St. Vincent.

A fan-shot video captured the thrilling performance, which began with an extended intro jam featuring five (yes, five) guitarists: White, St. Vincent, McCartney’s bandmates Rusty Anderson and Brian Ray, and McCartney himself, who swapped his bass for a six-string for the big finale. McCartney cajoled solos out of everyone, pointing at...

A decade ago, Ed Sheeran joined the British and Irish supergroup Band Aid to cover the charity single “Do They Know It’s Christmas?” The 2014 iteration of the song — which originally premiered in 1989 and was updated in 2004 — also featured One Direction and Sam Smith, among others. Last week, these same names appeared when Band Aid announced the lineup for the 2024 version. But now, Sheeran claims he was never contacted to extend permission to use his vocals on the recording — and even if he had been, he would have said no.

K-pop may have dominated Billboard’s global charts for much of the year – Rosé and Bruno Mars’ ‘Apt.‘ is literally on top of the Billboard Global Songs Chart right now – but they didn’t even manage to make a dent on this year’s Grammy nominations list.

The Grammy Awards nominations list shocked many when it was released on Nov. 8. For the second consecutive year, no K-pop act was recognized in any of the categories.

Should the 2024 Grammys Make A Separate Category For K-pop?

Even though BTS received nominations at the prestigious awards show for three years in a row, from 2021 to 2023, it didn’t exactly pave the way for other K-pop acts to shine.

The Grammy Awards, which will be hosted on Feb. 2 at Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles, released a list of nominees across 94 categories, covering genres from pop to classical.

Beyoncé led the pack with 11 nominations,...

Jerry Garcia’s estate has brought his voice back from the dead by partnering with AI company ElevenLabs to read audiobooks, e-books, articles, poetry, fan stories, PDFs, and more in 32 languages.

In addition to recreating Garcia’s voice for the Iconic Listening Experience on the ElevenReader app, the Jerry Garcia Foundation has also considered using the model for upcoming projects like narrated documentaries or audio art exhibits, according to Billboard.

“My father was a pioneering artist, who embraced innovative audio and visual technologies,” said Keelin Garcia, the Grateful Dead artist’s daughter and co-founder of the Jerry Garcia Foundation. “In the 1990s, my dad introduced me to the computer, digital art, and video games. When we traveled on concert tour, we played on Game Boy. At home, we’d have fun playing on the Macintosh in the studio where my father created his first digital art, and housed his Midi guitar.

“Today we celebrate the amazing creative achievements of our music community,” stated Harvey Mason jr., CEO of the Recording Academy. “It was an incredible year in music and these nominations reflect the work of a voting body that is more representative of the music community than ever before.
