After an emotional return to the stage at the 2024 Paris Olympics opening ceremony, Celine Dion has announced she will return to the City of Light for a series of comeback concerts this fall.

The singer announced in a press release Monday that she will perform a residency-style run of shows at Paris La Défense Arena beginning Sept. 12, marking her first full concerts in years as she continues to manage stiff-person syndrome.

The concerts were teased in March through a poster campaign across Paris featuring the titles of some of Dion's most famous songs, including "Pour que tu m'aimes encore" and "Power of Love," before the shows were officially confirmed.

Dion will perform multiple shows per week throughout September and October at the 40,000-seat venue, which has previously hosted major acts such as Taylor Swift, the Rolling Stones and Kendrick Lamar.

The 10-show concert series is currently scheduled to conclude Wednesday, Oct. 14, according to a press release.

In a statement included in Monday's press release, Dion said, "Over the last few years, every day that's gone by, I've felt your prayers and support, your kindness and love. You've helped me in ways that I can't even describe, and I'm truly fortunate to have your support." 

"This year, I'm getting the best birthday gift of my life…I'm getting the chance to see you, to perform for you once again in Paris, beginning in September!" she continued. "I'm feeling good, I'm strong, I'm feeling excited, obviously a little nervous, but most of all, I'm grateful to all of YOU! I love you all and I'll see you soon!"

Chilli claims it was by accident, she was scrolling and her thumb reposted the video, In a released statement on her official IG she denied being Maga.

Upon further review it's been outed that Chilli had donated multiple times to Trump's Campaign, yet she claims she didn't read the fine print and thought she was donating to vets.

To make matters worse people took a deeper dive and discovered Chilli follows several right wing people on her IG, in addition to liking several right wing posts on social media.

The plot thickened even more as this radio interview resurfaced of TLC member T Boz outing Chilli as voting for Trump.

Sad news, as TLC was supposed to kick off a tour with Salt & Pepa, and En Vouge.

Many fans have turned on Chilli and claim they won't be buying tickets and that she's now trying to do damage control.

No word on if they'll be dropped from the tour due to the backlash.

Chilli has since limited her comments on IG due to the thousands of comments that were left dragging her over this fiasco.

HYSTERIA. It's a banger, I'm into it. This is shaping up to possibly be her best era yet. Thoughts??

Thoughts??

Brian Littrell from the Backstreet Boys is in hot water today after a video appears to show Littrell calling someone the homophobic f-slur.

In the video, obtained by local outlet WMBB, Littrell confronts a beachgoer identified as Kyle Gallagher. During the altercation, PEOPLE reports Littrell appears to say, "You want to be gay? Want to be a f*****?"

And get this ... Littrell submitted the video himself because he thought it would help his case against Gallagher! But Littrell's attempt to press criminal charges failed ... big time.

Littrell reportedly tried to press battery charges against Gallagher, but prosecutors decided not to after the video appeared to back up Gallagher's side of what happened.

In the affidavit, Littrell reportedly accused Gallagher of striking his hand and claiming Gallagher "was belligerent and disturbing the peace." But Gallagher reportedly told cops he was just "startled" by Littrell holding his phone so close to his face.

Ultimately, Walton County's Deputy Chief Assistant State Attorney Josh Mitchell reportedly cited "lack of criminal intent" as a reason he didn't recommend a warrant.

We've reached out to Brian's reps for comment ... so far, no word back.

If you come across a bonified BOP, please post it here. I’d love to check it out! Hope you keep this thread growing.

My current obsession atm is this lil bop...

Wait but Anne isn't a pop artist, she's an actress you say?

Well you're right to an extent. This is the first single off her upcoming movie Mother Mary where Anne plays a pop star rising from zero to a pop icon. It was produced by Charlie XCX among other names and we will get a full soundtrack too

I knew Anne could sing, but damn this is next level. Really excited to check out the movie.

Also, not mother coming from acting business with an iconic single to show these basic new pop stars how music should be done

Besides the singles my favs are Into The Sun, Light Up and Sucker For Love. My only complaint is I wish there were more tracks! Thoughts??

Nicki Minaj is facing a new lawsuit alleging she owes $275,149.62 in unpaid production costs for her 2023 iHeartRadio Jingle Ball performances and Pink Friday 2 rollout events. According to Billboard, 24/7 Productions (USA) Inc. filed the suit in New York on Monday against Minaj and her company, Pink Friday Productions, seeking payment of the balance, interest, and court costs for alleged breach of contract.

24/7 Productions claims Minaj's team approved all costs before they began working and that the invoices have not been paid, even though Minaj's team acknowledged them and promised to make a payment.

The filing states that 24/7 Productions first worked with Minaj on her 2022 MTV Video Music Awards performance and was later hired for her 2023 events. Minaj later brought the company on for her 79-date Pink Friday 2 world tour, but has not paid them for the earlier events despite completing the tour.

The lawsuit states that 24/7 Productions developed and submitted an itemized budget for the Jingle Ball concerts and album launch events. The budget was approved by Minaj's team before production began, covering services such as advance show planning, technical operations, staffing, and logistics.

Nicki Minaj Hit With Lawsuit Over Alleged 275K Concert Bill

Nicki Minaj’s social media propped up by thousands of bots, analysis finds

Nicki Minaj spent the past year transforming herself from a polarizing rap superstar into a high-profile conservative provocateur, lobbing viral attacks at Democratic leaders, boosting MAGA talking points and earning public praise from President Donald Trump and his allies.

But quietly, humming in the background of her varied social media blitzes, a sophisticated army of bots was unconditionally praising and amplifying Minaj’s content, according to a new report shared exclusively with POLITICO.

“We don’t really see a lot of high volume, high impact orchestration of bad and fake actors within that intersection of the geopolitically driven and music culture,” said Dan Brahmy, the CEO and founder of Cyabra. “It is scarce in our field to see the combination of the bad and the fake online world with the entertainment world.”

The report found inauthentic accounts repeatedly amplified Minaj’s posts with praise that used “highly similar language,” particularly in response to posts where authentic accounts were criticizing Minaj.

“Supportive comments generated by fake profiles were predominantly brief, repetitive, and low in semantic complexity, consisting largely of praising keywords and positive hashtags rather than original or substantive engagement,” the report found.

Other inauthentic activity surrounding Minaj included “longer, more detailed comments designed to appear organic.”

Cyabra identified one day, Dec. 26, when fake profiles made up 56 percent of all comments on political posts made by Minaj.

Cyabra is about 85 percent confident the more than 18,000 profiles identified are fake. But if the company were to narrow that scope to profiles that exhibit even stronger signs of inauthenticity, the confidence level could easily rise into the 90s, Brahmy said
