This Christmas, you can go to the movies with Christina Aguilera.
For two days only, Dec. 14 and Dec. 21, a holiday concert special starring the Grammy-winning star will be coming to a theater near you via Fathom Entertainment. Christina Aguilera: Christmas in Paris celebrates the 25th anniversary of her holiday album, My Kind of Christmas.
Directed by Sam Wrench, who brought you the Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour movie, the special was shot in Paris in front of 250 guests against a backdrop of the Eiffel Tower, which was transformed into a sparkling Christmas tree. It features Xtina singing holiday classics and hits, intercut with vignettes where she talks about love, motherhood, reinvention and her artistry. There’s also a sequence set in Paris’ iconic Crazy Horse cabaret and strip club.

The countdown for Summer Walker‘s Finally Over It album can now begin, as she’s announced the release date for the project.
Finally Over It is set to release Nov. 14, completing the third and final installation of her Over It series.
She shared the news during a YouTube Live Wednesday while responding to one of the questions asked as part of a lie detector test. She also revealed during the exam that Latto is on the album, that she believes in love and that she has a song on the project that’s about her ex.
Summer’s announcement continues the teases that have been part of her rollout for the forthcoming album.
She previously shared a commercial via The Shade Room announcing a hotline for fans to call if they’re finally over waiting for its release.
Summer also posted a jail skit in which she claimed she’s been “working like a slave” over the last few months and therefore needs fans to purchase Finally Over It.
“I wanna go home, and I wanna see my kids,” she said while behind bars. “This is why y’all gotta buy my album ‘cause I can’t do this s*** no more. I’m too thick to escape.”
Finally Over It follows Summer’s sophomore album, Still Over It, released in 2021. The first of the series was her 2019 debut album, Over It.

If you think being a metal fan will save you from Whamageddon, think again.
Poppy has released a cover of the possibly inescapable Wham! holiday classic, “Last Christmas.” The recording was produced by former Bring Me the Horizon keyboardist Jordan Fish and is part of the Spotify Singles Holiday series.
The cover is out now exclusively on Spotify as part of the platform’s Spotify Singles Holiday series.
The aforementioned Whamageddon refers to the viral game in which participants try to avoid hearing “Last Christmas” during the holiday season through Dec. 24. Though technically Whamageddon doesn’t start until Dec. 1, so you can feel free to listen to Poppy’s rendition to your heart’s content until then and still not fail the game.
Covering “Last Christmas” caps an eventful year for Poppy, which has also included touring in support of her latest album, 2024’s Negative Spaces, and collaborating with Evanescence‘s Amy Lee and Spiritbox‘s Courtney LaPlante on the single “End of You.”

Lauryn Hill regrets not spending more time with D’Angelo, she reveals in a tribute to the late singer.
Following his death due to pancreatic cancer Tuesday morning, Hill, who collaborated with D’Angelo on her song “Nothing Even Matters,” shared some words about his craft, and the impact he had on people and the R&B genre.
“I regret not having more time with you. Your undeniable beauty and talent were not of this world, and a presence not of this world needs protection in a world that covets light and the anointing of God,” Hill wrote on X. “You sir, moved us, stirred us, inspired and even intimidated others to action with your genius.”
She then thanked him for “being a beacon of light to a generation and beyond who had no remembrance of the legacy that preceded us” and for “charting the course and for making space during a time when no similar space really existed.”
“You imaged a unity of strength and sensitivity in Black manhood to a generation that only saw itself as having to be one or the other. It is my earnest prayer that you are in peace,” she wrote.
Beyoncé also paid tribute to D’Angelo on her website, writing, “We thank you for your beautiful music, your voice, your proficiency on the piano, your artistry. You were the pioneer of neo-soul and that changed and transformed rhythm & blues forever. We will never forget you.”
In a lengthy post on his Instagram Story, Justin Timberlake shared how D’Angelo changed him with albums Brown Sugar and the “absolutely transcendent” Voodoo, and recalled meeting him backstage at one of his tour stops for the Voodoo album.
“You took R&B and put it in all capitals. Meshed it with something else and changed the landscape. Made it something more,” he wrote. “Your contribution will always be remembered.”

On Tuesday night’s edition of Dancing With the Stars,Pentatonix member Scott Hoying and his husband, Mark Manio Hoying, shared some exciting news: They’re going to be parents.
During the video package that ran prior to Scott and partner Rylee Arnold‘s performance, Mark told Rylee, “We have one more piece of news for you: We’re having a baby. Our surrogate is pregnant!” Scott said, “We’re gonna be dads!”
“We’ve dreamed of this our whole lives,” Mark added. “Scott’s gonna be the best dad in the whole world.”
On the show, Scott dedicated his foxtrot to Mark and performed it to his own song, “Parallel.”
After the show, Scott told ABC’s Good Morning America, “It’s gonna be the greatest joy of my life to raise a child with [Mark].”
Scott and Mark also posted a video on TikTok capturing the emotional moment when they learned of their impending fatherhood.
In September, Scott told ABC Audio of the duo’s dream of becoming parents, saying, “It’s a long journey, but we are closer than ever.” Mark added, “We’ve wanted to start a family since the day we got married, over two years ago, but you know for some families it takes just a little longer and we’re being patient.”
Scott and Pentatonix will release their new album, Christmas in the City, on Oct. 24.
Bette Midler infamously serenaded Johnny Carson before he signed off The Tonight Show in 1992 and now she’s done the same for The Late Show host Stephen Colbert, whose show was canceled by CBS in July.
Midler appeared on The Late Show Tuesday night to talk about her New York Restoration Project’s annual Hulaween benefit, but used the appearance to sing a song dedicated to Colbert, set to her classic tune “Wind Beneath My Wings.”
Midler told Colbert she wrote the song because she “wanted to thank you personally and publicly for all you did for me these last 9 1/2 years,” noting, “I mean this from the bottom of my heart … I would not have made it through without you.”
“You were a voice of sanity and honesty, and most important, honor,” she added.
Being that Colbert is a huge Lord of the Rings fan, Midler sang, “Did you ever know that you’re my Frodo? You stand for what’s right with wit and class.”
She also got in a few digs at President Donald Trump in the song.
“I hold you high as the great eagles, because you never kissed the orange a**,” she sang, repeating the last line a few times and even getting the audience to sing along with her.
The New York Restoration Project’s annual Hulaween benefit is Oct. 24. Tickets are available at nyrp.org/hulaween.

You’d be forgiven for thinking that Justin Timberlake‘s biggest musical influence was Michael Jackson, but it turns out that neo-soul pioneer D’Angelo, who died Tuesday of pancreatic cancer at age 51, was his true north star.
Justin posted a photo of himself at age 19 with the R&B star, best known for his song “Untitled (How Does It Feel)” and its sexy naked video, on his Instagram Story, along with a heartfelt essay. “I’ll never forget hearing Brown Sugar for the first time. It changed me. You changed me,” he wrote about D’Angelo’s classic 1995 debut album.
“It was the most pivotal moment in establishing confidence in my own voice,” he continued. “For the first time, I heard a sound that reflected the sounds I grew up with — early R&B, but ‘now’ it was intertwined with a modern edge. The chords and arrangement carried a mixture of church/jazz/funk. The harmonies delicately dancing with one another. It sat in my spirit and always will.”
JT then writes that he was “changed once again” by D’Angelo’s second album, Voodoo, which he calls “absolutely transcendent.” He says seeing D’Angelo during that tour was “one of the best concert experiences of my life,” and recalls meeting the singer backstage “and tell[ing] you how in awe I was of you.”
“You were very kind. Under-spoken. I will never forget that,” he adds.
After praising D’Angelo’s third and final album, Black Messiah, Justin concludes, “You took R&B and put it in all capitals. Meshed it with something else and changed the landscape. Made it something more. Your contribution will always be remembered.”
He concluded, “1 of 1. RIP trailblazer. With love, one of your biggest fans.”
