Olivia Dean and Ella Langley both have two songs in the top 10 of the Billboard Hot 100 — and that’s a history-making achievement.
Olivia is at #2 with “Man I Need” and #6 with “So Easy (To Fall in Love).” Meanwhile, Ella is #1 for a sixth week with “Choosin’ Texas,” while her new song, “Be Her,” has jumped to #8. For both women, those songs are their first-ever top-10 hits on the Hot 100, and that’s the historic part.
According to Billboard, this marks the first time in the history of the Hot 100 — which started in 1958 — that two women have both had their first two top-10 hits in the top 10 simultaneously.
Ella also picked up an additional chart milestone: She’s now only the second woman ever to have two songs reach the top 10 on both the Hot 100 and the Hot Country Songs chart at the same time. The first, of course, was Taylor Swift, who did it in 2012 with “We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together” and “Red.”
(WASHINGTON) — The Trump administration has fired two immigration judges who earlier this year dismissed the deportation cases of students advocating for Palestinian rights, the union representing immigration judges confirmed Monday.
Roopal Patel, who was appointed as an immigration judge in 2024, ruled in February that there were no grounds to deport Rumeysa Ozturk, a graduate student at Tufts University. Ozturk was held in detention in Louisiana for 45 days.
Nina Froes, who was also appointed as a judge in 2024, dismissed deportation proceedings against Mohsen Mahdawi, a Columbia University student who was arrested by immigration authorities immediately following his citizenship interview last April.
Froes and Patel are among 113 immigration judges who have been fired during the current Trump administration. According to the National Association of Immigration Judges, six judges were terminated this past weekend alone.
It’s unclear if the two judges were terminated directly because of their rulings in the deportation cases of the students.
News of the dismissals was first reported by The New York Times.
A spokesperson for the Justice Department’s Executive Office for Immigration Review, which oversees immigration court judges, did not immediately respond to a request for comment from ABC News.
Rep. Dan Goldman, D-N.Y., said on social media that the firings “violated every basic due process.”
“Donald Trump is purging immigration judges who aren’t rubber stamps for his cruel, inhumane mass deportation agenda,” Goldman said. “In just over a year in office, he has fired more than 100 judges and threatened others who refused to comply with his wishes.”

(WASHINGTON) — A 16-year-old boy has been charged with murder and aggravated sexual abuse in the death of his stepsister during a family cruise vacation, the Department of Justice announced Monday.
Anna Kepner, 18, died on the Carnival Cruise ship Horizon in November while the ship was in international waters and heading to Miami, prosecutors said.
The DOJ alleged the stepbrother “sexually assaulted and intentionally killed” Kepner. The Florida high school senior died from mechanical asphyxiation, officials said.
The boy was initially charged as a juvenile, prosecutors said. He’s now been indicted as an adult by a federal grand jury on charges of first-degree murder and aggravated sexual abuse.
Anna Kepner’s father, Chris Kepner, is married to the suspect’s mother, Shauntel Kepner.
Chris and Shauntel Kepner said in a statement Monday, “Our family is devastated by the loss of Anna and continues to grieve this unimaginable tragedy.”
The couple said the 16-year-old suspect has not yet been taken into custody, which they said has left them “deeply concerned and troubled.”
“We believe accountability is critical and are seeking clarity on this matter,” they said, adding, “We are placing our trust in the justice system to pursue the truth with care and integrity.”
“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.”

Looks like Duran Duran fans are about to get some new music.
The band announced on Instagram that they’ll be releasing a new song, “Free To Love,” on April 23, with the post noting that producer Nile Rodgers is involved.
Duran Duran has a long history with Rodgers. He remixed their 1984 single “The Reflex,” which became their first #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 and went on to be their biggest-selling single. Rodgers also produced the track “The Wild Boys,” which appeared on their 1984 live album, Arena, and peaked at #2 on the Hot 100.
He also co-produced their fourth studio album, 1986’s Notorious, and contributed to several other Duran Duran albums, including 2024’s Astronaut, 2015’s Paper Gods and 2023’s Danse Macabre.
Duran Duran is set to headline the BeachLife Festival in Redondo Beach, California, on May 1. They’ll then head to Las Vegas for four nights at the Fontainebleau, May 2, 6, 8 and 9.

The teaser key art for ‘Little House on the Prairie.’ (Netflix)
The teaser trailer for Little House on the Prairie season 1 has arrived.
Netflix has released the first trailer for its new series adaptation of the books by Laura Ingalls Wilder.
This series transforms Wilder’s beloved, semi-autobiographical books into a show that is “part family drama, part epic survival tale, and part origin story of the American West,” according to Netflix. It will offer “a kaleidoscopic view of the struggles and triumphs of those who shaped the frontier.”
Alice Halsey will star as Laura Ingalls in the show. Also starring are Luke Bracey as patriarch Charles Ingalls, Crosby Fitzgerald as loving mother Caroline Ingalls and Skywalker Hughes as Mary Ingalls, the older sister and polar opposite to sister Laura.
“Once upon a time, Ma and Pa and Mary and Laura left the big woods of Wisconsin and moved to the prairie where a new life was waiting for them,” Halsey says in the trailer. “Every day and every night was an adventure. And even though they were all alone and very small against the sky and the stars, they were happy because they were a family.”
Rebecca Sonnenshine serves as showrunner and executive producer on the new series, which Netflix renewed for season 2 back in March.
“I’m incredibly grateful to our wonderful cast and crew, who put their hearts and hard work into making our first season come alive,” Sonnenshine said in a press release at the time the season 2 renewal was announced. “We can’t wait to share this new adaptation of the Little House books with the world, and we’re thrilled that Netflix is giving us the opportunity to continue the story.”

(WINN PARISH, La.) — A Mexican migrant died last week in Immigration and Customs Enforcement custody, according to an agency notification sent to lawmakers, becoming the 47th person to die in ICE detention during the second Trump administration.
Alejandro Cabrera Clemente, 49, died on April 11 at the Winn Correctional Center in Louisiana.
In the notification, ICE said that Cabrera was found unresponsive and was transported to a local medical center.
“Despite life-saving efforts, at approximately 8:51 a.m., an onsite physician at WPMC pronounced Cabrera deceased,” the agency said.
Clemente is the 15th Mexican national to die in ICE custody since the administration began its immigration crackdown in 2025.
Last month, Mexican diplomat Vanessa Calva Ruiz called the recent deaths part of “an alarming, unacceptable trend” since the administration took office.
“These deaths reveal systemic failures, operational deficiencies, and possible negligence,” she said in Los Angeles.
ICE said that Clemente had prior convictions for disorderly conduct, drug possession, and probation violation, as well as an arrest for domestic violence. ABC News could not independently confirm these claims.
The increase in ICE deaths has coincided with an unprecedented rise in federal immigration detention. The number of people being held recently climbed to a record 70,000, the highest level in the agency’s 23-year history.
According to an ABC News analysis of ICE data, the first 14 months of the current term have been the deadliest period at federal detention centers since the COVID-19 pandemic. ABC News’ analysis found the current death rate is 11 per 100,000 admissions, compared to 7 per 100,000 last year and just 1 per 100,000 in 2022.
In a previous statement, an ICE spokesperson said, “Consistent with data over the last decade, death rates in custody are 0.009% of the detained population. As bed space has rapidly expanded, we have maintained a higher standard of care than most prisons that hold U.S. citizens — including providing access to proper medical care. For many illegal aliens this is the best healthcare they have received their entire lives.”
“It is a longstanding practice to provide comprehensive medical care from the moment an alien enters ICE custody. This includes medical, dental, and mental health services as available, and access to medical appointments and 24-hour emergency care,” the statement said.

(WASHINGTON) — An AI-generated photo that President Donald Trump posted Monday on his social media platform that depicted him as a Jesus-like figure and drew criticism from some of the president’s religious backers was removed roughly 13 hours after it was posted.
At an unscheduled news conference at the White House Monday afternoon, Trump acknowledged he posted the image, but said he thought it was an image of him as a “doctor.”
“Well, it wasn’t a picture, it was me,” the president said. “I did post it, and I thought it was me as the doctor and it had to do with Red Cross as a Red Cross worker there, which we support.”

Walker Scobell will not attend his high school prom due to threats from fans of Percy Jackson and the Olympians.
The 17-year-old actor, who plays the titular demigod in the popular Disney+ series, issued a statement to his Instagram Story on Sunday saying he will be skipping prom because of death threats girls who attend his high school have been receiving.
“Just to let everyone know, I will not be attending prom,” Scobell wrote. “Please stop sending death threats to EVERY teenage girl who could remotely be associated with me based on their proximity to where I live. It’s not fair to them or their families. Maybe also just stop sending death threats in general. That’s just not cool. Kinda weird I have to say this.”
Scobell stars in Percy Jackson and the Olympians alongside Leah Sava Jeffries, Aryan Simhadri, Charlie Bushnell, Dior Goodjohn, Daniel Diemer and Glynn Turman. The show is based on the popular book series by Rick Riordan.
The show, which finished its season 2 run in January, will premiere season 3 later in 2026. A video of Scobell and Jeffries from the upcoming season 3 was released on Jan. 21 to announce the news. The clip also appeared midway through the credits of the season 2 finale.
In the clip, Percy Jackson (Scobell) and Annabeth Chase (Jeffries) attend a school dance together. The Stephen Sanchez song “Until I Found You” plays in the background as Annabeth pulls Percy to the dance floor. She takes Percy’s hands and brings them to her waist as they sway together.
There is currently no word on the exact date when fans can expect to watch season 3 of the series, which is based on Riordan’s novel The Titan’s Curse.

J. Cole’s stint at a player in the Chinese Basketball Association has come and gone. After making his debut for the Nanjing Monkey Kings on Saturday, he shared a blog post recapping the experience.
“I want to say thank you to the Nanjing club and to the CBA for allowing me to have that incredible experience,” he wrote. “Also to my teammates who were mad cool, and who really wanted me to get a bucket!”
Cole played eight minutes in his appearance, getting “a few good looks” but failing to score. “A couple more games and maybe those shots would have started to fall! Either way I’m fulfilled and grateful!” he said. “S***, I feel like I dropped 20 !!! And my knees felt like I played 40 minutes!”
“The biggest win,” however, was that his family “got to experience China for the first time.” He also expressed his appreciation for his international fanbase.
“I also didn’t realize there were so many people in China that rocked with my music!” he wrote. “Thank you to everybody who showed up and brought an album to sign. I was blown away. I felt the energy in the game that yall wanted me to hit those shots too! Appreciate it!”
He added that he’d consider returning “for a longer amount of games” after his upcoming tour as long as he “could stay in shape.”
For now, Cole’s time with the Monkey Kings is up. Though he was scheduled to play three games, visa delays limited him to just one appearance.
Cole is set to kick off The Fall-Off World Tour on July 11.
