The Rolling Stones have found another way to join in on the spirit of the World Cup.
The rockers just launched what they’re calling The Rolling Stones Streaming World Cup, which pits the top 30 countries that stream The Stones on Spotify against each other to see who comes out on top.
The tournament will last for the next four weeks. Fans in those countries are encouraged to stream any song from The Stones’ catalog, with each stream earning a point for their country. And it’s apparently also a competition between band members, with Mick Jagger, Keith Richards and Ronnie Wood serving as team captains for 10 teams each.
The goal of the friendly competition is for countries to rack up as many points as possible; the country that earns the most points will be crowned the Stones Top Streaming Nation.

The Rolling Stones previously announced a collaboration with FIFA for the World Cup, which included a series of World Cup-inspired limited-edition vinyl variants of their upcoming album, Foreign Tongues, as well as a new World Cup-inspired merch line.
Foreign Tongues, The Rolling Stones’ 25th studio album, comes out July 10.

Tyler Perry is continuing his Why Did I Get Married? franchise with Why Did I Get Married Again?, premiering Sept. 9 on Netflix.
The film reunites most of the original cast as a group of longtime friends who gather in Lake Como, Italy, for the wedding of Marcus and Angela’s daughter. It’s an experience that shows the group how much their children have grown to mirror them.
Speaking to People, Tyler said he is “most excited for audiences to see how these characters have matured and how their love for each other took them through some really hard times.”
He added, “It’s a wonderful reminder of how people grow, change, mature and settle into what marriage is and not what we think it is when we’re young.”
Returning cast members include Lamman Rucker, Sharon Leal, Jill Scott, Richard T. Jones, Tasha Smith and Michael Jai White.Taraji P. Henson joins the franchise as newcomer Roselyn, the groom’s mother.
“This was one of those projects that I knew I had to say yes to, not just because of Tyler, but because of this entire cast,” Taraji told People. “It’s also not every day that you get to work with one of your best friends, so sharing scenes with my girl Tasha Smith was amazing. We almost had too much fun!”
Describing her character, she said, “She’s actually been friends with the group for a long time. She’s the fierce, powerful businesswoman who travels with the group to Lake Como to see her son get married … and let’s just say, may be traveling with some extra baggage of her own!”

“Biggest of the big, man. Huge.” That’s how Jackson Dean describes his feelings about Toby Keith, as the “Don’t Come Lookin'” hitmaker covers one of the late singer’s hits for Apple Music.
“I did not know him the way that a lot of people did, but I know enough to know that I miss him every day and … there’s so many things that I wish that I could go and ask him,” Jackson says. “And just to be even thought of to be able to sing a song of his and bring it to life in your own way … is just an honor.”
“He was a great man and one of the best, absolutely best ever to do it,” he adds. “To take a crack at something that he killed is just a challenge.”
Jackson delivers his take on 2001’s “I Wanna Talk About Me,” which Toby took all the way to #1.

Niko Moon’s doing some “American Dreamin'” just ahead of the Fourth of July.
The new track drops Friday and was inspired by his parents. His mom and dad worked as a waitress and truck driver while he was growing up, with the family often moving between trailers and extended-stay motels before they settled in a house during his high school years.
“My parents were the first example of what positivity looked like to me,” Niko reflects. “It’s easy to be positive when life is going smooth, but when you’re facing adversity and still choosing optimism, that makes a mark on a kid. And it did for me. ‘American Dreamin” is a song about my life.”
It comes from Niko’s new album, Roots, which drops July 17.
Niko’s best known for his triple-Platinum hit, “Good Time,” which topped the chart in March 2021.

(VINTON COUNTY, Ohio) — Four people have been charged with child endangerment after 16 children were removed from a home in Ohio where officials say they were living in “deplorable conditions.”
Authorities executed a search warrant at the home in Hamden in Vinton County on Tuesday, where they say they found the children and four suspects inside.
Ohio Attorney General Andy Wilson said the evidence in the case is “beyond comprehension.”
“I think if they would have waited another 24 hours, that there was a very high probability that we’d be dealing with a death or multiple deaths of these children,” he said during a press briefing on Wednesday.
Vinton County Prosecutor William Archer said this is not a case of human trafficking, but an “intra-family situation.”
He described the suspects as being the “grandma, grandpa, father and mother” during Wednesday’s press briefing.
The four suspects — Gary Siders Sr., 73; Christina Siders, 67; Gary Siders II, 36; and Elizabeth Siders, 33 — have each been charged with 16 counts of endangering children, a second-degree felony, according to officials. They pleaded not guilty during their arraignment Wednesday morning and their bond was set at $300,000 each. They will likely request court-appointed counsel, officials said.
The charges allege the four suspects abused the children, resulting in “serious physical harm.”
The children range in age from 1 ½ to 18, according to Wilson. He did not go into the nature of the injuries but said seven of the children were transported to the hospital on Tuesday, including two who were airlifted there. One of the children was in critical condition, Wilson said.
Archer said the children are safe and officials are working to have them placed in temporary custody.
“They are currently in a good situation and are being protected,” he said.
Wilson said the investigation has been ongoing for some time, and that a separate but “parallel” investigation led law enforcement to execute the search warrant on Tuesday.
The family had lived in Vinton County for the past four years and were “clearly bouncing around,” according to Wilson.
“They were pretty adept at keeping these kids out of sight and out of investigative eyes,” he said.
The children were not enrolled in school, according to Wilson. The eldest child is included among the charges because the 18-year-old is believed to developmentally still be a minor, officials said.
“Some of these children couldn’t even speak,” Wilson said. “It was terrible.”
Vinton County Sheriff Ryan Cain described the condition of the house as “disgusting,” including the presence of human feces, and said the children were largely confined to a small area.
“Most of our livestock is kept in better condition than the children,” Cain said during Wednesday’s briefing.
Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine called the situation “tragic.”
“It is heartbreaking to learn the conditions that these children were living in, and to learn of their medical conditions,” DeWine said in a statement, which also thanked those helping them.
An attorney for one of the suspects said that the case is in an “extremely preliminary stage.”
Gary Siders Sr. is “entitled to the same presumption of innocence that every person charged in this county should and does enjoy,” his attorney, Dorian Keith Baum, said in a statement on Thursday, in part.
“So while there is little ability to stop all speculation, conjecture, or uncorroborated guess-work from taking place, I would ask that we all let the process play out, irrespective of the sensationalist underpinnings of the allegations against Mr. Siders, so that we as his defense counsel can be provided with whatever evidence the State allegedly has in order to give it a thorough review and determine if the State can meet their burden of proof; or, alternatively, if Mr. Siders is actually not guilty of what is being alleged,” the statement continued.

Future is giving fans insight into his mindset ahead of his upcoming album, The Real Me. In audio posted to his Instagram Story, he opened up about love and marriage.
“I love true love. I don’t want fake love. True love is like having another life, it’s like having another hit record. How many people can get that? Everybody want true love, but how many people get a chance to experience it?”
When asked whether he wants to be married, Future responded, “Hell yeah!”
“Do I want to be married to the wrong person? No. Do I want to be faithful to the wrong girl? No. Every man that marry the right woman, they progress,” he said. “When they marry the s*** that ain’t for sure, you lose.”
Future reflected on unconditional love, suggesting that a partner should accept him despite the things that come with his rapper lifestyle.
“If you see me out with a f****** girl, holding her hand, she like n**** I still love you when you hold another b****’s hand, it ain’t right. That’s just unconditional love,” Future continued. “I’m still who I am, like, it don’t matter what. You love me on how who I am, whether I got temptations or not … it’s going to come with Future. It comes with a lot of girls, too.”
He added that his new album will show him embracing authenticity.
“I’m at the point of my life where I’m being the real me. You suffer because you can’t even show the people who you really are,” Future said. “That’s why I’m making this album, The Real Me, cause I want people to know this is the real me. In love or not in love or however it is. This is the real me.”
The Real Me is set to arrive on July 10.
