The Beatles made their debut on The Ed Sullivan Show, which was their first time performing in front of an American audience.
The band hit the stage with the songs “All My Loving,” “Till There Was You” and “She Loves You” and later returned to perform “I Saw Her Standing There” and “I Want to Hold Your Hand.”
The performance was seen by a then-record 73 million viewers, helping Sullivan top the nightly ratings for the first time in seven years.
The show is considered one of the seminal moments in pop culture and launched Beatlemania in America.
In 2014, exactly 50 years later, CBS celebrated the iconic appearance with The Night That Changed America: A Grammy Salute to The Beatles. The show featured performances by Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr, along with other artists who covered Beatles tunes.

We knew Charlie Puth was going to sing the national anthem at the Super Bowl on Sunday, but we didn’t know Lady Gaga would pop up during the halftime show to perform “Die With a Smile.” Both artists have now taken to Instagram to reflect on their performances.
Charlie performed the anthem while accompanied by two choirs, a small orchestra and Kenny G — who appears on Charlie’s upcoming album — on saxophone. He wrote on his Instagram Story, “Thank you everyone for your kind words. It was an honor to sing The National Anthem. I wrote the arrangement in a very specific way to honor Whitney Houston — I hope that was heard.”
Whitney’s version of the anthem, which she performed in 1991 at Super Bowl XXV, is often cited as one of the best renditions ever. It was even released as a single amid the Gulf War and reached #20 on the Billboard Hot 100. Rereleased to capture the patriotic spirit after the 9/11 terrorist attacks, it reached #6.
Charlie went on to thank the choirs, the orchestra and Kenny, as well as producer, composer and musical director Adam Blackstone, for “writing such a beautiful choir part.”
“I love music so much,” he concluded. “Also Bad Bunny was incredible. Goodnight!!”
As for Gaga, she wrote on Instagram, “It was my absolute honor to be a part of Benito’s halftime show. Thank you Benito for inviting me and thank you to the entire cast for welcoming me onto your stage. I wouldn’t miss it for the world.” Gaga, of course, headlined the halftime show herself in 2017.
Gaga also posted images from the Super Bowl ad she appeared in for Pokémon, which wasn’t announced ahead of time. In the pics, she poses with her favorite Pokémon, Jigglypuff.
Looking at the title, it might be easy to dismiss Bailey Zimmerman‘s latest single, “Chevy Silverado,” as just another country song about a truck.
But for the “Backup Plan” hitmaker, it goes much deeper than that.
“It’s crazy. That song has taken me three years to write,” he tells ABC Audio. “It took me three years to get that perfect and, you know, tuned up, I guess you’d say. And I really didn’t even know if people were gonna like it because it was kind of a more personal song to me.”
“I thought maybe it’d just be one of those my deep fans would love,” he continues. “But to see it going to country radio was just like, ‘This is actually crazy.’ I did not expect this at all, zero percent. So it’s really cool. It was a big, big surprise.”
You’ll find Bailey’s tale of love lost on his sophomore album, Different Night Same Rodeo.
He’s set to kick off the tour of the same name Feb. 19 at Hertz Arena in Estero, Florida.
A new set of limited-edition prints celebrating The Beatles will be released in March.
The two prints feature imagery from artist Em Cooper’s 2022 oil-painted music video for The Beatles’ 1966 song “I’m Only Sleeping,” which was created using more than 1,300 of Cooper’s hand-painted oil paintings.
The prints include “Early in the Morning,” which depicts John Lennon’s morning routine as seen at the start of the video, and “In The Middle of a Dream,” which features images of all four members of the band.
The limited-edition prints will be available through Avant Arte starting March 4 at 9 a.m. E, but only for 48 hours. More info can be found at avantarte.com.
Released in November of 2022, Cooper’s video for “I’m Only Sleeping” won a Grammy for best music video. It was released in conjunction with the 2022 reissue of The Beatles’ seventh studio album, Revolver.
Bruno Mars hasn’t kicked off his new tour yet, but a recent online concert has earned him a Guinness World Record.
On Jan. 17, during a session of Roblox’s game Steal a Brainrot, Bruno — or at least a virtual avatar of him — performed his new hit “I Just Might” along with his 2012 hit “Locked Out of Heaven.”
According to the GuinnessWorld Records, 12,862,161 concurrent viewers watched the concert, setting a record for the largest music concert in a video game by a single artist. Guinness notes that audience was larger than the entire population of Sweden.
Roblox reports that 10 million livestream users tuned in to the show, which garnered 53 million social video views. A limited-edition Brainrot called “Brunito Marsito” was downloaded more than 5 million times.
The previous record was held by Travis Scott, whose 2020 Fortnite concert drew 12.3 million viewers. A 2024 Fortnite event featuring Snoop Dogg, Ice Spice and Eminem drew 14.3 million viewers, but that was multiple artists, not one performer .
For those hoping to see Bruno in real life, his The Romantic Tour starts April 10 in Las Vegas, Nevada. His new album, also called The Romantic, drops on Feb. 27.
