Zara Larsson is giving fans the perfect fits for laying out in the “Midnight Sun.”
The singer is launching her first line of swimwear on Wednesday via her lingerie brand Main Rose, which she started last year.
Speaking to Vogue about her new venture, which includes bikinis and one-piece styles, Zara says, “It just made 100% sense. Summer at this point is a part of my personality and my brand — and swimwear is the ultimate summer staple.”
The line features shades of pink, citrus and red, plus leopard and snake prints. She tells Vogue, “I want people to feel really sexy — something they can wear to feel free, jump in the ocean, and have fun.”
All the styles include four detachable charms, including a lucky number 7 and an acrylic nail. Sadly, there are no dolphin charms as of yet, even though Zara laughs, “The dolphin meme is my mascot now. That’s my soul sister!”
Zara also hopes that when fans are rocking her swimwear this summer, they’ll be bumping her album Midnight Sun, or her upcoming deluxe, Midnight Sun: Girls Trip. Because the album actually came out in September 2025, Zara explains, “It will be the first time the album can actually exist in the summer, when people are hanging out with their friends or traveling.”
“The playfulness of summer is so authentic to me, and I’m glad people are connecting with it,” she tells Vogue. “I feel like the Mariah Carey of summer!”

David Jonsson has a long history with his new film Wasteman.
The prison thriller follows parolee Taylor, whose hope for a new start is jeopardized by the arrival of his new cellmate, Dee (Tom Blyth). It’s now playing in select theaters.
Jonsson stars as Taylor. Although he’s been the lead in many movies now, such as Rye Lane, Alien: Romulus and The Long Walk, he told ABC Audio that Wasteman was the first film he ever auditioned for.
“The first film audition that came through that I thought was worthwhile going for was this. And that was years ago,” Jonsson said. “I thought I did quite a good audition and heard nothing, but it turns out the film just fell apart.”
Luckily, it was able to come together several years later, and Jonsson got to play the first-ever film part he auditioned for, now with the career experience he didn’t have beforehand.
“I look back now and I’m like, ‘I wasn’t ready to do it then,'” Jonsson said. “It wasn’t the right time.”
Now, though, was the perfect time, he said, calling the journey full circle.
“As a young actor, you’re just trying to build a body of work. And if you have some choice to put the things inside your tool kit, you should be varied and find the things that actually really speak to you,” Jonsson said. “This film always did.”
And while Wasteman wasn’t made with a large budget, Jonsson said it was made with passion.
“The only way you can make a film that is doing something [like this one] is if you’re willing to put the hours into working. I think that’s a principle that I try and live by, but particularly with this, you have to embody that,” Jonsson said. “That’s the alchemy for making a film like this.”

Rock & Roll Hall of Fame guitarist Dave Mason has died at the age of 79.
According to a statement provided on behalf of his family, Mason “passed away peacefully at his home in Gardnerville, Nevada” on April 19. The statement noted he “lived a remarkable life devoted to the music and the people he loved.”
Mason is best known as one of the founding members of the band Traffic, which he formed in April 1967 with Jim Capaldi, Steve Winwood and Chris Wood. They released their debut album, Mr. Fantasy, that year, which was a hit with critics and contained one of their signature tunes, “Dear Mr. Fantasy.”
The self-titled follow-up, released in 1968, featured the huge hit “Feelin’ Alright?,” which Mason wrote. The song has gone on to be covered by a variety of artists, most notably Joe Cocker, who left off the question mark in the title and made it a hit.
Mason had a rocky tenure with Traffic, leaving the group following the release of Mr. Fantasy due to artistic differences, only to rejoin during the recording of their self-titled sophomore album. He then left again after that album’s release. He briefly returned for a third time, touring with them in 1971 — but he only performed six shows, including the show featured on the live album, Welcome to the Canteen.
While promoting his 2024 memoir, Only You Know and I Know, Mason told ABC Audio that all the drama in the band led to them making great music.
“What made the band great? Unfortunately, you know, differences combine to form beauty and so the differences are what made things great, but the differences unfortunately drove it apart,” he said.
Mason was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame with the group in 2004, although Winwood and Capaldi performed “Dear Mr. Fantasy” without him. He did join in for the all-star jam on “Feelin’ Alright?,” which also featured Keith Richards, Tom Petty and others.
Outside of Traffic, Mason had a successful career as a session musician and appeared on such well-known albums as Jim Hendrix’s Electric Ladyland, George Harrison’s All Things Must Past, Paul McCartney and Wings’ Venus and Mars, and The Rolling Stones’ Beggars Banquet. He also did a brief stint as guitarist in Fleetwood Mac in the ’90s after both Lindsey Buckingham and Stevie Nicks left the group.
Mason had a somewhat successful solo career, releasing 15 albums. His last album was 2025’s A Shade of Blues. His biggest solo hit was 1977’s “We Just Disagree,” which he wrote. The tune, which appeared on his album Let it Flow, peaked at #12 on the Billboard Hot 100. He also wrote and recorded the tune “Only You Know and I Know,” which was a Hot 100 hit for him, and went on to be a top-20 hit for Delaney & Bonnie.
In September of 2025, after 60 years in the music business, Mason announced that he was retiring from touring due to “on going health challenges.” The prior year, in September 2024, he canceled a tour due to an urgent heart condition.
The wait is over. The release date for Drake’s Iceman has been confirmed. The reveal came after streamer Kishka discovered the date hidden inside a blue bag buried within an ice sculpture in downtown Toronto. The album will arrive May 15.
Kehlani is giving New Yorkers an early listen of her upcoming album. “just landed in New York & dropped the tracklist. signed vinyls available on kehlani.com & i promise it sounds even better on wax. see you at Club Kehlani tonight for the listening,” she writes on Instagram. She’ll also hold a listening party in LA on Wednesday. The self-titled album arrives Friday.

AWOLNATION and surfer/musician Makua have premiered the video for their collaborative single, “Catch a Wave.”
The clip, now on YouTube, features AWOLNATION frontman Aaron Bruno as a giant cyclops chasing Makua down the streets of Los Angeles.
“I wrote the song about a fellow surfer passing away in the water,” Bruno says in a statement. “It never felt appropriate to release on my own. Then I met Makua, and given the big wave champion that he is, the timing felt right.”
The song “Catch a Wave” was released in February.
AWOLNATION’s most recent album is 2024’s The Phantom Five. Bruno’s also been releasing music with his hardcore side project, The Barbarians of California.
Between them, Teddy Swims and Josh Groban can pretty much handle singing any kind of music, so perhaps that’s why they’ve been tapped to perform at this year’s Grammy Hall of Fame Gala. The two artists, who are both signed to Warner Records, will perform as part of a special tribute to the label, which is receiving the Visionary of Music Award for its more than 60 years of releasing records that have “made a lasting mark on music and culture.” The event will take place May 8 in LA.
KATSEYE will perform at the American Music Awards, airing live from Las Vegas on CBS and Paramount+ on May 25. The photo on the social media post announcing the news shows the group with five members, which is the configuration they’ve been appearing in since Manon Bannerman went on hiatus.
Shaggy will have a role in a new film starring Kevin Costner and Jake Gyllenhaal, ABC Audio has confirmed. Honeymoon with Harry is about a guy and his soon-to-be-father-in-law who are forced to take a trip together. At first they don’t get along, but they eventually end up bonding. This is Shaggy’s second film; he appeared in the 2018 Netflix movie Game Over, Man! Starting in June, he’ll appear opposite his buddy Sting in The Last Ship at New York City’s Metropolitan Opera.

Lenny Kravitz paid tribute to the late R&B superstar Prince on Tuesday, the 10th anniversary of the singer’s death.
Kravitz shared video on Instagram of him and Prince walking through a crowd to the stage and then performing Kravitz’s cover of Guess Who’s “American Woman” together.
“This man was a great inspiration and big brother,” Kravitz captioned the clip. “We had love and respect for each others work and I was blessed to know him. He encouraged and elevated me as you see here.”
He added, “How you are missed in the flesh but the music and spirit lives on.”
Prince died April 21, 2016, from an accidental overdose. He was 57.
The anniversary of Prince’s death was marked with the release of the previously unreleased track “With This Tear.” The song was previously covered by Céline Dion for her self-titled 1992 release.

The teenager was due in court in Miami on Wednesday morning for his arraignment, though he waived his appearance, according to a filing from his attorney.
Prosecutors alleged that the stepbrother “sexually assaulted and intentionally killed” Kepner. The Florida high school senior died from mechanical asphyxiation, officials said.
Anna Kepner’s father, Chris Kepner, is married to the suspect’s mother, Shauntel Kepner.
Chris and Shauntel Kepner said in a statement last week, “Our family is devastated by the loss of Anna and continues to grieve this unimaginable tragedy.”
“This situation is deeply painful and complex for our entire family,” the Kepners said. “Anna was deeply loved, and we remain committed to honoring her life and memory every day.”

(PALM BEACH, Fla.) — Mike Tyson, Tony Robbins, and President Donald Trump walk into Mar-a-Lago.
It’s not the setup to a joke — it’s a pitch to investors.
On Saturday, all three men and 297 of the top holders of Trump’s meme coin, called $TRUMP, are expected to convene for what organizers call “the most exclusive crypto & business conference in the world” at Trump’s Florida estate — the second such bid to boost interest in Trump’s digital asset since his return to office.
The event website warns that “no gifts will be accepted,” but some attendees, by virtue of their investment in the coin, will have already spent millions of dollars — much of which flows directly to the Trump family — for the privilege of potentially lunching with the president.
Critics have panned the event as a brazen pay-for-play opportunity, accusing Trump of attempting to personally profit by selling access to the presidency.
In a letter transmitted earlier this month to the event organizer, longtime Trump friend Bill Zanker, a group of Senate Democrats sought records tied to the event, stating that “it is essential that Congress fully understand the extent to which President Trump and his family are profiting off of his cryptocurrency ventures.”
Zanker did not respond to a request for comment from ABC News.
President Trump launched his meme coin — a type of digital currency that’s often based on an internet meme — in January 2025, just days before his inauguration. The coin’s value initially soared to more than $44 before plummeting almost immediately.
Last May, in a bid to reinvigorate interest in the coin, Trump announced plans for an “intimate private dinner” at his golf club in Virginia. Hundreds of investors attended the event, where Trump spoke briefly and handed out gold watches to a subset of attendees, many of whom traveled from overseas and remained anonymous until arriving in person at the event.
The 2025 event in Virginia helped bolster the coin’s value for a time, but interest in the currency again tapered off. By early March 2026, its value dipped below $3, meaning that an investor who purchased $10,000 worth of Trump coins at its peak would have been left with assets worth less than $700.
Last month, when Trump announced plans for the Mar-a-Lago gala, the coin’s value climbed above $4 before settling back below $3, according to CoinGecko data.
On-chain trading activity analyzed by the cryptocurrency data firm Nansen shows that the coin generated roughly $1.35 billion in trading volume on decentralized platforms across 2.74 million transactions ahead of the gala. The Trump family earns a fee from each of those transactions, according to its website, but the structure of those transaction fees remains opaque.
Notably, the volume of tokens bought and sold ahead of the Mar-a-Lago gala remained almost entirely flat, “suggesting wallets may be flipping for leaderboard points rather than building long term positions,” said Jake Kennis, an analyst at Nansen.
At the upcoming event, top investors will receive Trump-branded watches, colognes, posters and a VIP reception with the president, according to the event website. Like the event last May, the identities of these investors are hidden behind pseudonyms or a series of letters and numbers. Attendees will hear keynote addresses from Tyson, Robbins and other business executives.
Buried in the event fine print, organizers say that “President Trump may not be able to attend” — and in fact the White House has said the president plans to attend the White House Correspondents Association Dinner in Washington later that evening.
Critics say these events are just one way in which the president has used the office of the presidency to line his own pockets. His family business has struck several real estate licensing deals around the world over the past year, most notably in the Persian Gulf region, and he has lent his name and likeness to myriad merchandise, including watches, spirits, sneakers, Bibles, guitars and fragrances.
One year into his second administration, Trump’s personal wealth has ballooned to more than $6 billion, according to Forbes. Despite the fact that his meme coin has lost more than 94% of its value since its all-time high early last year, the transaction fees on trades for the currency has generated nearly $400 million for the president, Forbes reported.
Trump and the White House have repeatedly and forcefully denied that his private business interests create a conflict of interest.
“The President is working to secure GOOD deals for the American people, not for himself,” a White House spokesperson said when Trump held his earlier meme coin event. “President Trump only acts in the best interests of the American public — which is why they overwhelmingly reelected him to this office, despite years of lies and false accusations against him and his businesses from the fake news media.”
