singers: Last News

Niki was just 15, she won a contest and was given the opportunity to open for Taylor Swift’s ‘Red Tour’ in Jakarta.A decade later, the Indonesian pop star is headlining a tour of her own.Starting in September, the “lowkey” singer will hit arenas, auditoriums, theaters, ballrooms, music halls and event centers all over the U.S. and Canada as part of her forthcoming ‘Buzz Tour’ in support of her third studio album with the same name, due out Aug.

The Right Stuff.” New Kids on the Block singer Joey McIntyre’s mom wanted to ensure that the world-famous boy band kept it clean and wholesome.“My mother was a staunch Catholic. I mean, she actually called the record company [because] there was a little too much cleavage in one of our videos and was like, ‘Change that clip,'” McIntyre, 51, the youngest of the five band members, told The Post.McIntyre, the youngest of nine children, is thankful his late mom was so religious.“I mean, thank God, because I wouldn’t be here, right? I mean, birth control was not an option, so that’s why they had nine kids.

Billie Eilish dropped her groundbreaking, Grammy-winning debut album, “When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go?” — there was a seismic shift in pop.At just 17, she emerged as a goth-pop princess whose spooky, synthy sound was eerily prescient of the doom to come when the pandemic shut the world.And the Billie effect was felt with everyone from Olivia Rodrigo to SZA to, yes, even Taylor Swift. While Eilish broke out of the “Bad Guy” groove of her biggest hit on her second album, 2021’s “Happier Than Ever,” there was still no stopping her power.And even when she made the most anti-blockbuster ballad for last summer’s “Barbie” smash, “What Was I Made For?” went on to win both the Song of the Year Grammy and the Best Original Song Oscar — even though the single didn’t even crack the Top 10.Now 22, Eilish is hot off of accomplishing that rare Grammy-Oscar double as she releases her third LP, “Hit Me Hard and Soft” — and she continues to go against the mainstream.In fact, she chose not to release any singles leading up to the album, wanting the collection to be consumed as a “family of songs.”Forget the fact that listening to an album from start to finish in the streaming era is a pretty radical concept.And when the LP gets off to the sleepiest of starts with the dreamy “Skinny” — where Eilish displays her new thing for strings, courtesy of the Attacca Quartet — you might think you accidentally shuffled it to the end.Just like Prince rebeled against the “Purple Rain” mania with “Around the World in a Day” and Radiohead tried to shake off the “OK Computer” masses with “Kid A,” Eilish has refused to play to the basic crowd to meet any sort of commercial expectation.And yet, it still works for her.

got a restraining order against John Oates — his blue-eyed-soul brother in the best-selling duo in pop history — it seemed as if the pair that ruled the ’80s with their big hair and even bigger hooks had shockingly lost all of “that lovin’ feelin’” for each other.But as wild as it first seemed, this was not about physical protection — this was strictly a business move to block Oates from selling his share in the pair’s Whole Oats Enterprises to music publishing company Primary Wave.And while Oates can’t discuss the ongoing legal battle amid the breakup that had many of us vacillating between “I Can’t Go for That” and “Say It Isn’t So,” he’s still singing his longtime partner’s praises — even as he begins the next act of his career with “Reunion,” his new solo album, out Friday.“Daryl’s voice was the one that was on all the hits … And you know, listen, Daryl’s one of the greatest singers of all time,” Oates told The Post outside of the former site of the Gaslight Cafe, the Greenwich Village coffeehouse where the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame duo played their first New York show together in the late ’60s — when they were both in different groups.“And so when you’re with one of the greatest singers of all time, of course you’re not going to be the frontman.

TikTok video shared Tuesday. “Two nights ago, Zach and I got into a traumatizing side-by-side crash,” she said. “It flipped a bunch of times, everything shattered and thank God we had our seat belts on.”“But there was a lot of blood,” Chickenfry added, “and we thought we were saying goodbye to each other.”Luckily, the social media star said the couple were not severely injured after the crash.

But the singer didn’t let the wardrobe mishap stop her from continuing with the lively performance.Keeping her composed, she moved closer to the center of the stage, with one hand on her mic and the other holding the top.

“Zach Sang Show” last week that he wishes he had appreciated his experience in the former boy band more when he was a member. “The main thing that I always feel bad about when I look back over my life is not enjoying the band enough,” Malik said. “I feel like I just took things too seriously, you know?”“I’m grateful that I’m able to be happier now,” he continued.

Mary J. Blige knows how to rock too.So don’t tell her she doesn’t belong in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, where she will be forever enshrined after being announced as one of the 2024 inductees last month.The nine-time Grammy winner has actually always had a soft spot for some rock.“When I was growing up….

David Kushner fan.First, the rapidly rising singer-songwriter dropped the music video for his new single “Hero;” shortly after, he announced he’s heading out on a nationwide tour this fall.From September through November, the husky-voiced, 23-year-old “Daylight” crooner will hit concert halls, theaters, and ballrooms all over North America.That includes a stop at Brooklyn’s Paramount Theatre on Wednesday, Sept. 25.“It’s been too long,” Kushner wrote on Instagram; for the record, his last tour was in late summer and early fall 2023.

the Police to his solo career, Sting says it never gets old when one of his songs gets a brand-new spin.And the timeless tunes of the artist born Gordon Sumner get a fresh flip in the new dance theater production “Message in a Bottle,” which is “sending out an SOS” from New York City Center through Sunday.“I always love to see someone else’s interpretation of one of my songs,” said the 17-time Grammy winner in a talkback following Sunday’s matinee performance. “I love it when rappers take a piece of my song and they create another art form from it as a basis.“I always love when people have a different interpretation to the meaning that I put into it myself, because it widens the song.

Dua Lipa had all that Mermaid Barbie training.The Grammy-winning songstress — who had a tail of a cameo in last summer’s “Barbie” blockbuster —needed all of her water-nymph powers as she presided over a rain-soaked Times Square on Sunday night in a surprise pop-up performance that still had fans braving the elements to dance the night away.It completed the Dua Lipa NYC takeover this weekend to launch her third album, “Radical Optimism,” which included her serving as host and musical guest on “Saturday Night Live.”And certainly, some “Radical Optimism” was needed to brighten up a cold, soggy Cinco de Mayo that felt more like Cinco de Marzo.Even the diva’s dad, Dukagjin Lipa, knew it — the former Kosovan crooner handed out $2 bills for good luck to guests as he was entering the VIP area.“New York!” the British-Albanian singer exclaimed as she took the stage inside of a trailer parked at the corner of 43rd Street and Seventh Avenue.Flipping her burgundy-tinted tresses like the former model she is — while safely covered from any hair-busting bursts from the skies — she launched into “Training Season” like a well-conditioned pro as her mammoth likeness took over the Nasdaq and Amex jumbotrons.Welcome to Dua Square.It was certainly a feat to get the crowd — which stretched all the way to 47th Street — levitating to any degree.“Thank you for braving the rain and the cold,” Lipa, 28, said.And for her next trick, Lipa performed “Houdini” — the first single from “Radical Optimism” — which possesses the same kind of dance-pop magic she has been crafting since her 2017 breakout hit “New Rules.”Then Lipa shifted into midtempo mode for the “Radical Optimism” closer “Happy for You,” which seems determined to prove that she can do more

Dua Lipa — the “New Rules” breakout who went from working the runway to working the dance floor with her self-titled 2017 debut.The 28-year-old diva seemed destined to be one of those Best New Artist Grammy winners we never heard from again back in 2019.

Cher, the beat goes on at 77.And the legendary diva has some very simple reasons for dating younger men such as her current boyfriend, music producer Alexander “AE” Edwards — who, at 38, is 39 years her junior. “I’m really shy when I’m not working and kind of shy around men,” she explained on Wednesday’s episode of “The Jennifer Hudson Show.”“And the reason I go out with young men is because men my age or older — well, now they’re all dead — but before they just never, they were always terrified to approach me,” she continued.

Katharine McPhee and David Foster go on the road, it’s a family affair.Not only do the married couple perform together — McPhee, of “Smash” and “Waitress” fame belts classics from her extensive catalog while Foster known for his work on “St. Elmo’s Fire” and countless other films and records mans the keys— they also recently brought their two-year-old son Rennie onstage to play the drums with them at Washington, D.C.’s Kennedy Center.“He only had to wait two years to play there.

Billie Eilish has accomplished more than most recording artists will in their entire lives.Over the past decade, the “Bad Guy” singer released two number one albums, hosted “Saturday Night Live” and collected nine Grammy Awards and two Academy Awards to name just a few of her many impressive achievements.This year, she’s going back for more.Eilish just announced she is embarking on the worldwide ‘HIT ME HARD AND SOFT: THE TOUR’ in support of her upcoming album with the same name, due out May 17.The worldwide tour includes a stop at Newark, NJ’s Prudential Center on Wednesday, Oct. 9 as well a trio of back-to-back-to-back gigs at New York City’s Madison Square Garden on Oct.

with Rolling Stone, Billie Eilish reveals that masturbation is one of her secret obsessions.“TMI, but self-pleasure is an enormous, enormous part of my life, and a huge, huge help for me,” said Eilish, 22, whose third studio album, “Hit Me Hard and Soft,” is due May 17.“People should be jerking it, man. I can’t stress it enough, as somebody with extreme body issues and dysmorphia that I’ve had my entire life.”Overcoming those body issues, Eilish has learned to love herself — au naturel — by masturbating in front of a mirror.“Partly because it’s hot, but it also makes me have such a raw, deep connection to myself and my body, and have a love for my body that I have not really ever had,” she said.

People magazine. “It’s a shame because it should have been a beautiful moment, but after we did it, people were trying to take it away, until I stood up and went, ‘Wait a minute, why are we living our life for anyone else?’ And 35 years later, we’re still married.”The 62-year-old, born John Francis Bongiovi Jr., made the last-minute decision to marry his then-fiancée while he was on tour at the time.“We were in Los Angeles, California, the band was on the road on the ‘New Jersey’ tour, and if you opened up the curtains of my hotel room, there’s a big billboard of the five of us [Bon Jovi band members] staring into my window,” Bon Jovi went on.
