Lisa will continue to make history this fall, becoming the first K-pop artist to stage a Las Vegas residency.

The Blackpink rapper-singer will kick off two weekends at Caesars Palace, hitting the Colosseum on November 13, 14, 27, and 28. General tickets go on sale April 23 at 1 pm E.T. Details about her set and any potential cameos from her fellow Blackpink members are still unknown.

The announcement arrives on the heels of the Blackpink EP Deadline, their first new music since 2022’s Born Pink. Lisa released her solo debut, Alter Ego, last year, featuring guests such as Rosalía (“New Woman”), Doja Cat and Raye (“Born Again”), Megan Thee Stallion (“Rapunzel”), and more.

Following her acting debut in Season Three of The White Lotus, Lisa will continue to work on the big screen, in the upcoming Netflix action-thriller film Tygo, an Extraction spinoff. She’ll co-star alongside Squid Game‘s Lee Jin-uk and Korean actor Don Lee. She’s also getting her own documentary, which is currently in the works at Sony Music Vision and directed by Sue Kim.

When The White Lotus wrapped in April 2025, Lisa reflected on working with Mike White and saying farewell to her character, Mook. “It was the greatest honor to be part of this show as my first acting gig alongside such incredible actors. And I’m so proud to be able to share my culture and show the beauty of Thailand to the world. Mook has changed my life in a way where I am learning more about myself and my capabilities. My Sunday nights may feel a lot emptier, but closing out The White Lotus with a full heart.”

Will This Country Take on 50 Cent Be the Song of the Summer?

Breland interpolates 50 Cent's "In Da Club" for his irresitible new single "In My Truck."

Will This Country Take on 50 Cent Be the Song of the Summer?

The latest single from Breland is a head-turner — and it just may be a contender for song of the summer. “In My Truck,” the first release from the country singer in two years, is an upbeat earworm that interpolates 50 Cent‘s immortal 2003 blockbuster “In Da Club.” The entire song rests on swapping out the word “club” for “truck,” a move so obvious that it’s almost genius.

“In My Truck” has all the hallmarks of a summer country hit: tight jeans, country boys, rhyming the word “truck” with “mud.” But its main precedent (and clear template) is a song that traveled far past country radio: “A Bar Song (Tipsy),” the 2024 Shaboozey single that transformed another early aughts hip-hop hit (J-Kwon’s “Tipsy”) into a crossover country-pop phenomenon. Like “Bar Song,” “In My Truck” trades hip-hop lyrical tropes for country signifiers (In this truck we drink whiskey, not Bacardi), while also inserting its own name brand to juxtapose with the down-home lyrics (In “Bar Song” it’s a Birkin; in Breland’s latest it’s a Rado watch).

Taylor Swift has made history once more — this time at the iHeartRadio Music Awards. The pop superstar nabbed seven wins at the 2026 ceremony, making history as the most awarded artist in one night.

The singer-songwriter accepted the award for Pop Album of the Year onstage for her 12th studio album The Life of a Showgirl. In that speech, she shouted out fiancé Travis Kelce, who attended the ceremony with her. “This album probably also feels very happy and confident and free, because that’s the way that I get to feel every single day of my life, because of my fiancé, who’s here,” she said, adding, “Thanks for all the vibes.”
