SZA made an appearance at Madison Square Garden on Monday night to support an artist she’s a big fan of: Don Toliver. During a stop on his Octane Tour, she joined him onstage to perform “Used,” their collaboration from her 2022 album SOS.
“Make some noise for Don Toliver,” SZA told the crowd. “Listen, I might be your biggest fan. I’m not joking. Everything you’ve ever made, you know how I already feel. Octane is incredible.”
She was one of several guests to join Toliver onstage throughout the night. Others included Sheck Wes, SahBabii and Peso Pluma, who performed “Mo Bamba,” “K9,” and both “La Bebé (Remix)” and an unreleased collaboration with Toliver. Malcolm Todd also made an appearance for “E85,” which samples his song “Chest Pain (I Love).”
Toliver also ran through tracks from Octane, in addition to some of his biggest hits. According to setlist.fm, the set included “Secondhand,” “Rendezvous,” “ATM,” “Call Back,” “Bandit,” “Tiramisu” and “Too Many Nights.”
Toliver continues the Octane Tour on Tuesday with a stop in Baltimore.

Apple TV has released a new official trailer for the third season of its drama series starring and executive produced by Rebecca Ferguson.
Season 3 will consist of 10 episodes, the first of which will premiere on July 3. A new episode will debut every Friday that follows through Sept. 4.
Silo‘s third season will continue the saga of the dystopian society of 10,000 people who live underground in mysterious circumstances, as well as an origin story of the society that’s set centuries in the past.
“In the present, Juliette Nichols (Ferguson) survives her forced ‘cleaning’ but returns with memory loss as the silo recovers from rebellion and faces a dangerous new threat,” according to an official description from Apple TV. “Meanwhile, in the ‘Before Times,’ journalist Helen Drew (Jessica Henwick) and Congressman Daniel Keene (Ashley Zukerman) uncover a conspiracy that pulls them into a chain of events with catastrophic, irreversible consequences.”
The trailer finds Ferguson’s Juliette dealing with the difficult society she lives in.
“I look at myself in the mirror and I don’t even know who’s looking back at me,” she says. “I get splinters of memories. If the founders cared so much, why do they need to kill a silo?”
Also starring in season 3 are Common, Harriet Walter, Chinaza Uche, Avi Nash, Alexandria Riley, Shane McRae, Remmie Milner, Rick Gomez, Billy Postlethwaite and Clare Perkins.
Silo has already been renewed for a fourth and final season. The show is based on the Silo trilogy of books by Hugh Howey.

Next year will mark the 25th anniversary of the MTV reality series The Osbournes, which followed the lives of Black Sabbath rocker Ozzy Osbourne, his wife and two of their children. And evidently fans may soon get to experience the show in a whole new way.
“We are in talks with a company now about doing a cartoon of The Osbournes, and it would open up a whole younger audience,” Ozzy’s wife, Sharon Osbourne, told Global Licensing Group at the recent Licensing Expo in Las Vegas.
“Nostalgia is the key word these days, so I think it just, you know, leans a lot in there. It’s 25 year ago,” his son, Jack Osbourne, added. “Since we started distributing the show again there’s a whole new audience out there for it.”
Sharon and Jack also discussed their desire to keep Ozzy’s memory alive.
“I think that it’s, you know, the Ozzy brand and legacy is open for business,” Jack said. Sharon noted, “Ozzy’s not going anywhere. He’s with us and he’s not going anywhere and that’s what it’s all about, to keep his legacy alive.”

(HOUSTON) — A man and woman were found dead in a Houston apartment after an hours-long standoff with the sheriff’s department, according to officials.
A 20-year-old woman and the 23-year-old suspect were found dead in the apartment, Harris County Sheriff’s Department Patrol Bureau Maj. Earl Dean said at a press conference on Monday.
Deputies received a report of man “frantic” on his phone just before 2 p.m. Monday, saying he “accidentally shot his girlfriend,” Dean said.
At the scene, deputies made contact with the man, who refused to obey their commands and threatened to kill himself. The man then barricaded himself inside the apartment, Dean said.
Deputies contacted additional resources and a SWAT team took over the scene, according to Dean.
After several hours of the crisis negotiation team talking to the man, trying to get him to surrender, the man refused all commands, Dean said.
“At one point we did deploy gas into the apartment complex. The male retreated onto the balcony where he suffered a self-inflicted gunshot wound,” Dean said.
“This is very unfortunate,” Dean said.
No deputies discharged their weapons during the incident, according to Sheriff Ed Gonzalez.
The circumstances surrounding both deaths remain under investigation. There is no ongoing threat to the public, Gonzalez said.
Imagine your partner proposing to you — while Harry Styles serenades you both with a love song he just dedicated to you.
That’s what happened to Natália Machado, after she and her boyfriend, Lucas Bajerski, happened to bump into Harry on the street in Amsterdam in May. As People reports, the couple was in town to see Harry perform on his Together, Together tour, and Lucas mentioned that he planned to propose at the concert.
At the show the next night Harry dedicated his song “Golden” to the couple, saying, “Lucas and Natália, this one’s for you.” Lucas got down on one knee and gave Natália a note that read, “You’re So Golden. Casa Comigo?” That means “marry me” in Portuguese.
Lucas tells People, “As soon as I heard that the song was dedicated for us, I did it… and cried.”
Harry then told the crowd that the two had just gotten engaged, and related the story about how they met on the street the previous day. You can see video of the proposal, and of Harry telling the story, on the couple’s Instagram pages.
“It’s … crazy that he represented the situation really well at the show, because it was how it happened, with every detail,” Lucas tells People, adding that Harry “creates an atmosphere of treating people with kindness. … It was one unforgettable night.”
Lucas wrote on Instagram, “Thank you @harrystyles for making this night even more special, thank you for helping me and dedicating an entire song to us! I hope you know that the invitation to be a groomsman is still open!”

Tom Holland is opening up about delaying production on Spider-Man: Brand New Day so that he could be part of Christopher Nolan’s The Odyssey.
In a recent interview with GQ, Holland spoke about an “uncomfortable conversation” he had with Sony Pictures head Tom Rothman about the possibility of delaying production on Spider-Man: Brand New Day in order to star in Nolan’s epic, as both films had the exact same production start date.
“So I said to Chris, like, ‘Look, I want to do this movie, but if I’m going to do it, I’m going to have to call Sony and have a very uncomfortable conversation,’” Holland said.
The call went well, Holland said, partly due to Nolan’s reputation as a filmmaker. The Odyssey‘s production started on schedule and actually finished nine days early, Holland noted.
“I think one of the reasons why Sony were happy to move is because Chris has that reputation of, ‘This movie isn’t going to go five months over, and we aren’t actually going to lose Tom for two years,’” Holland said. “Any other director, it might have been a slightly different conversation.”
Both films are premiering to theaters this summer. Holland said this period really “feels like the beginning of the next chapter of my life.”
“I really feel like a young man now,” Holland continued. “I have so much amazing stuff happening in my personal life to take me through to the rest of my life, and I feel like I have a new perspective on where I want to exist in Hollywood.”
The Odyssey arrives in cinemas and to IMAX screens on July 17, while Spider-Man: Brand New Day swings into theaters on July 31.

Jimi Hendrix is finally getting a street named after him in New York.
West 8th Street in Manhattan’s Greenwich Village, where Hendrix’s legendary Electric Lady Studios is located, was due to be co-named Jimi Hendrix Way back in February, but an extensive snow storm forced the postponement of the event. The naming has now been rescheduled.
The street will get its new name on June 10 at 11 a.m. ET, with the ceremony taking place a block from the studio.
Among those attending the street naming will be E Street Band guitarist Stevie Van Zandt. The event will coincide with the launch of a new education partnership with the rocker’s education initiative TeachRock, which uses music and pop culture to expand learning in schools. The partnership will result in the addition of a Hendrix curriculum for middle and high school students.
Experience Hendrix LLC President and CEO Janie Hendrix will also be on hand for the ceremony, along with Living Colour’s Vernon Reid, singer Valerie Simpson, Hendrix producer Eddie Kramer, NYC District 2 council member Harvey Epstein, and a group of local TeachRock teachers and students.

(NEWARK, N.J.) — New Jersey officials are pursuing legal avenues to get to the bottom of allegations of poor conditions at Delaney Hall in Newark, including threatening to sue to shut down the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) detention facility if state health inspectors are not allowed to examine it.
The city of Newark already filed a lawsuit in April 2025 against the GEO Group, the private company contracted by ICE to run the facility, alleging that the company made modifications to Delaney Hall to prepare it for use as a detention facility without required state oversight. However, Mayor Ras Baraka and city leaders said Tuesday that they will expand that litigation to call for the facility’s closure if state health inspectors aren’t given full access.
New Jersey Attorney General Jennifer Davenport and Gov. Mikie Sherrill also announced Tuesday that the state has filed suit against the GEO Group, asking the state superior court to order the company to allow state health inspectors access.
Protests and an alleged hunger strike have been ongoing since May 22 after reports alleged the 300 inmates inside the ICE detention center have been poorly fed, are not receiving proper medical care and are being held in poor conditions.
“If the GEO Group – with a $1 billion government contract – has nothing to hide and the conditions inside Delaney Hall are as safe and as sanitary as this private corporation and the Trump Administration claim, then there is no legitimate reason why my health inspectors are being kept from full access throughout the building,” Sherrill said in a statement Tuesday announcing the state’s suit.
The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) responded to the attorney general’s suit with a statement on X Tuesday, calling it “frivolous.”
“ICE is committed to transparency, and Delaney Hall complies with all required state and local laws,” DHS said, in part. “ICE is regularly audited and inspected by external agencies. All detainees are provided with proper meals, quality water, blankets, medical treatment, and have opportunities to communicate with their family members and lawyers.”
The GEO Group did not immediately respond to ABC News’ request for comment about Baraka’s announcement and the state’s lawsuit.
DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin has previously said that the reports of the poor conditions are untrue.
Baraka said Tuesday during a news conference outside of Delaney Hall that the alleged conditions inside the detention center were “inhumane” and that action needed to be taken. There was a report that alleged one of the inmates suffered a miscarriage and was not given proper care, according to the mayor.
“It’s troubling, which forces us to expand our lawsuit against Delaney Hall,” Baraka said.
Eric Pennington, Newark’s business administrator, told reporters Tuesday that the city asked the GEO Group to allow health inspectors to check the facility.
Sherrill said last week that inspectors from the state Department of Health visited Delaney Hall on May 28 but were “denied full access” and “allowed to inspect only a limited part of the facility.”
The New Jersey Attorney General’s office further said in Tuesday’s lawsuit announcement that the health inspectors were “barred from inspecting crucial areas of the facility, including the medical unit, sleeping areas, and bathing and toileting areas.”
Pennington said Tuesday that the city will use their legal options to get the inspectors inside.
“If they don’t allow us in, we, along with partners who are out here to protect the individuals inside, they will join our lawsuit, along with the state Health Department, to join to have this facility shut down until it can be inspected and ensured it is safe for the individuals who are in there,” he said.
“We are awaiting GEO Group’s response now and we expect to go to the court in the next day or two to continue the existing lawsuit,” Pennington added.
Davenport’s suit seeks an expedited injunction that directs the GEO Group to allow inspectors inside, according to court documents.
“The reports of unsanitary and unsafe conditions inside Delaney Hall are extremely concerning, and GEO Group – like any other business and facility in New Jersey – must follow the law,” Davenport said in Tuesday’s announcement.
Several elected officials have visited the facility since the protests began and claimed they have seen the poor conditions firsthand.
Federal and state law enforcement agents have clashed with protesters on numerous days, with federal officers in some instances firing tear gas and using batons. Several people have been arrested, some of whom were accused of assaulting federal officers.
Sherrill and other New Jersey Democrats have criticized the federal government for their response and actions against the protesters and have called on everyone to lower the temperature.
A curfew was enforced outside the facility starting Sunday night.
Baraka, who said Tuesday that he had spoken with protesters, said that there were no arrests made Monday night but that the curfew would continue for at least one more day.
Limited visitation privileges were restored Sunday following a request by the governor.
