Get ’em before they’re gone! Olivia Rodrigo launched a new collaboration with Casetify, this time to celebrate the recently completed SOUR world tour.

The “drivers license” singer teased two new phone cases on her Instagram Story, writing “Sour tour cases out now!” She also included a link to the Casetify website so fans can snatch up the new collection before it sells out completely.

The new line comes in two new colors, a pink butterfly print case with the official SOUR tour logo embedded in black ink and a clear case with various stickers — as well as the tour logo — decorating the see-through exterior. Both cases also have the option of coming in a clear frost or black protective lining to protect against falls.

In addition, both cases are only available for iPhone models from the iPhone X to the most recently released iPhone 13 Pro Max.

Olivia first worked with Casetify in December, when she launched the Hardened Hearts Collection.  

The Grammy winner is currently enjoying a break after wrapping her sold-out SOUR world tour.

Come crawling faster…to buy new Stranger Things-themed Metallica merch.

The metal legends have teamed up with the Netflix sci-fi show to create a new line of apparel featuring the logo of the Hellfire Club, the Dungeons and Dragons group led by everyone’s favorite metalhead, Eddie Munson.

The merch collab, of course, follows the placement of Metallica’s “Master of Puppets” in the Stranger Things season four finale, which has led to a renewed interest in the 1986 song. Following the finale’s premiere in July, “Master of Puppets” made its first-ever appearance on the Billboard Hot 100.

You can order your own Metallica Hellfire Club shirt now via Metallica.com or Netflix.shop.

Metallica previously rocked Hellfire Club shirts in a TikTok of them jamming “Master of Puppets” alongside the scene where Eddie shreds the thrash classic in the Upside Down. The “Enter Sandman” outfit later met actor Joseph Quinn, who plays Eddie, backstage at last week’s Lollapalooza.

For Cole Swindell, there’s not much that can top a live duet with Tim McGraw.

That’s exactly what happened last week at Michigan’s Faster Horses Festival: Tim and Cole got to share the stage, performing a live rendition of Tim’s classic “I Like It, I Love It” as a packed crowd of fans roared along with them.

Cole shared a close-up video of the moment on Instagram this week, introducing the duet by writing, “One of the coolest moments of my career is about to happen,” as the camera pans across him wearing a vintage McGraw shirt.

Flash forward to their time onstage, the two stars hold their microphones up to the crowd as the fans sing the chorus of “I Like It, I Love It” back to them.

“They never sang it back this loud when I covered it in college,” Cole jokes.

“Glad someone captured this because I mayyyy have blacked out up there!” the singer notes at the conclusion of his post.

Cole’s ‘90s country fandom continues to be a big part of his career: His new single, “She Had Me at ‘Heads Carolina,’” pays homage to another ‘90s classic from Jo Dee Messina.

Selena Gomez is heading back to the kitchen for a new round of Selena + Chef, with its fourth season premiering on August 18. The trailer is out now.

In a press release, Warner Media says this season will take us to a beautiful Malibu beach house, where the Grammy winner will invite her friends and family to help her master the culinary arts. This is the same house where Hannah Montana was filmed, a series Selena starred in as diva Mikayla in 2007.

This time, famed chefs Gordon Ramsay, Priya Krishna, Matty Matheson, Rachael Ray, Devonn Francis, Kristen Kish, Ludo Lefebvre, Paola Velez, Nick DiGiovanni and Adrienne Cheatham will be on hand to whip the “Wolves” singer into shape.

These esteemed chefs have the important task of guiding Selena through recipes and giving her tips to avoid kitchen disasters. They will have their hands full because, as seen in the trailer, Selena finds herself in questionable situations with cooking utensils.

While some chefs will continue to educate Selena virtually, Chef Ramsay becomes the first in-person guest on the show and declares, “We’re f***ed” when Selena admits her cooking skills are severely lacking.

As with the past three seasons, all guest stars will highlight a certain cause or charity. Since Selena + Chef began airing, it has raised $400,000 for 26 organizations.

Selena previously said in a statement, “I am looking forward to another season of being in the kitchen with some of the world’s best chefs. Hopefully, my skills have improved. More importantly, we’ve been able to raise money for incredible charitable organizations.”

The beloved cooking show will air in three parts. Three episodes will premiere on August 18. Three more will arrive on the streamer the following week.  The final batch of episodes — four in all — will premiere September 1 for the season finale.

Lizzo was moved to tears after watching a young Black girl excitedly dance along to her new song “About Damn Time.”

The Grammy winner took to TikTok to share a snippet of the adorable clip before explaining through tears why the video meant so much to her.

“I’m like still processing that,” she said while wiping her face. “You never think like when you’re making music like you have an effect on people or you have an impact on people’s lives.”

Lizzo went on, “It’s like this is literally why I do it. I’m so grateful that people take my music and do good things with it.  It makes them move, it makes them dance, it makes them happy, makes them feel confident in themselves.”

The “Truth Hurts” rapper said that seeing how her music inspires people is what is truly important to her. She added she doesn’t care about “the numbers” or how successful a song of hers may be and said it all comes down to her fans.

Reflecting back on watching the young girl enjoy herself to “About Damn Time,” Lizzo sweetly declared, “That video is my Grammy right there. That is my award. And I am so grateful.”

Lizzo wrote in a precursor video, “im crying cus this is EXACTLY why i do what I do… Keep that confidence and beauty— no one can stop you!”

The video was first posted by a woman named Danielle, who regularly posts videos of her daughter, Aria, dancing. She said of Lizzo’s latest banger, “We watched this video 20x on Sunday while cleaning and this is Aria singing along.”

Fans are hoping little Aria gets to meet her idol one day, with some also calling for a dance collaboration.

On Tuesday, Walker Hayes celebrated one year since the release of “Fancy Like” — a song that would go on to become a viral hit, sending him careening toward country superstardom after years of working hard to make it in the music business.

One surprising side effect of “Fancy Like”’s success is how it strengthened Walker’s bond with his oldest daughter Lela, the star tells ET Online. “My daughter and I really bonded,” he says. “We just did two quick takes of this dance that Lela and I threw together.”

He also admits that “Fancy Like”’s success allowed him to “pay a lot of bills” and pull his family out of debt.

Walker is a dad to six kids, three of whom are old enough to remember much more difficult financial times the family faced. “My big three, they had a tough life financially,” he continues.

“It’s funny. Bagels were a luxury item,” the singer elaborates. “So this new lifestyle, they’re very appreciative of it.”

But the singer’s younger three kids have a different perspective since they don’t remember much of the lean years. “Our little ones, on the other hand — [this lifestyle] is kinda all they know. So it’s challenging trying to keep them grounded,” he adds.

Walker’s whole family can be spotted in the music video for his newest single, “Y’all Life,” and the singer says that’s just part of making his career a team operation. “They gotta help on the farm. They gotta earn their dinner,” he jokes.

Rihanna welcomed her first child with rapper A$AP Rocky in May and, while the two have started to emerge in the public eye — don’t expect them to take their child with them. 

A source tells Entertainment Tonight that the new parents are focused on their newborn’s privacy. “They’re keeping things lowkey so they can enjoy their little family,” the insider spills. “Privacy has become increasingly important to the couple.”

The source adds, “When it was just the two of them, they’d go out all hours of the day and night and interact with fans. Now, with the baby, they’re a little more protective.”

This aligns with what the “Umbrella” singer said back in March, when she told ELLE she will be a “psycho” mom when it comes to keeping her kid safe. The singer vowed she will do more than “flip a table” if her child’s privacy is violated, promising, “You talk about my kids, it’s over.”

Neither Rihanna nor Rocky have publicly spoken about the baby’s gender or name. While reports say they welcomed a son, the two have yet to confirm that.

The insider also notes Rihanna is getting ready to transition back to work, adding, “She’s one of the hardest working people out there and she can definitely have it all.” The informant says that the Grammy winner will “be a hands-on mom and have an impressive career.”
