Music Festivals

Pepsi is tapping out of a major music fest and Kanye West appears to be the reason why.

The soda giant has reportedly pulled its sponsorship from London's Wireless Festival after Ye was booked to headline all three nights of the event this summer.

A rep for Pepsi confirmed the move, saying the company has "decided to withdraw its sponsorship" -- though they stopped short of directly naming Ye as the cause.

The bodyguard who made Jude Law's 11-year-old daughter cry in a hotel lobby in Brazil after she walked by Chappell Roan at breakfast was working for Sabrina Carpenter at the time of the incident.

Pascal Duvier came out this week and said he wasn't working for Chappell ... and now the Daily Mail reports he was on the job protecting Sabrina.

Both pop stars were in Brazil for Lollapalooza and were staying at the Tangara Palace hotel in São Paulo, where Ada Law was staying with her mom and her famous stepfather, Brazilian soccer legend Jorginho.

The bodyguard who made Jude Law's 11-year-old daughter cry in a hotel lobby after she snuck a peek at Chappell Roan is breaking his silence.

Pascal Duvier says he's the bodyguard from the incident, and he insists he was NOT working for Chappell, backing up her previous claims.

Pascal says ... "I take full responsibility for the interactions ... I was at the hotel on behalf of another individual, and I was not part of the personal security team of Chappell Roan. The actions I took were not on behalf of Chappell Roan, her personal security team, her management, or any other individuals."

Chappell Roan has apologized after Brazilian soccer legend Jorginho claimed her security guard made his young daughter cry ... but also says it wasn't her security guard to begin with!

Check out the pop singer's new Instagram Story video -- she addressed the accusation by Jorginho that his 11-year-old daughter simply looked at Chappell while walking past her breakfast table at the hotel they were both staying for this weekend's Lollapalooza Brazil ... and then was swiftly berated and shaken to tears by someone in her security team.

Chappell says she never even saw a child or her mother -- Jorginho's wife -- and no one came up to her or bothered her in any way. Furthermore, she says the accused man was not even a part of her personal security team, and she did not advise the dude to tell the little girl or his mom off.

Chappell Roan allegedly contributed to an 11-year-old girl bursting into tears ... so says a Brazilian soccer legend.

Here's the deal ... Jorginho -- a well-known footballer who currently plays for Flamengo in Rio de Janeiro -- took to Instagram to call out the popstar, who is playing 2026 Lollapalooza Brazil this weekend.

Jorginho claims his wife -- Cat Cavelli -- and his daughter went to São Paulo for the festival ... where he says they spotted Roan in the lobby of the hotel.

A night of electronic music turned tragic in Australia after one man died and six others were hospitalized following medical emergencies at a major music festival.

New South Wales Police say officers were patrolling the Dreamstate music festival at Sydney Olympic Park Saturday when several attendees suddenly began suffering what authorities described as “medical episodes.”

A man in his 40s was pronounced dead at the scene, while six other festivalgoers were rushed to nearby hospitals. Police confirmed one person remains in critical condition.

Destroy Lonely is all on board with the decision to move Rolling Loud to Orlando ... he says it will make the world's largest hip-hop festival on par with Coachella.

We got the rapper at LAX on Friday and our photog asked him about Rolling Loud's new digs in Florida. The festival has bounced around the country in recent years and is now setting up shop at Camping World Stadium in Orlando.

Destroy Lonely says Orlando has the space and existing infrastructure to make Rolling Loud even bigger ... there's tons of hotels there and lots of direct flights thanks to Disney World, Universal Studios, Sea World, and the like.

Olivia Rodrigo's celebrating the fifth anniversary of her debut record "Sour's" release in a big way ... by bringing in Talking Heads frontman David Byrne to record a cover version of "Drivers License"!

The hitmaker dropped the rendition of the track today, and she announced there will be more covers of songs from "Sour" coming out soon on Instagram.

FYI ... "Drivers License" dropped in January 2021, and "Sour" came out four months later -- and Olivia took home several Grammy Awards for her work on the album.

Olivia added David is "nothing short of a legend" and wrote she "actually cried" when she listened to his version of her song for the first time ... which is high praise for someone who's racked up a couple billion streams on Spotify!

What's more ... she's going to be releasing a 7-inch vinyl of the cover -- which will include their cover of the Talking Heads song "Burning Down The House," which they performed during the 2025 Governors Ball music festival.

And in case you can't believe what you just read, Olivia shared a video showing her rehearsing the track with David prior to the festival.

Donald Glover shocked fans with a jaw-dropping confession ... revealing a stroke and multiple health scares were the real reasons behind the sudden cancellation of his New World Tour.

The artist opened up during his set at the Camp Flog Gnaw Festival on Saturday, telling fans things got serious fast while he was on the road last year.

"I had a really bad pain in my head in Louisiana, and I did the show anyway," he told the crowd. "I couldn't really see well, so when we went to Houston, I went to the hospital, and the doctor was like, 'You had a stroke.' And the first thing I thought was like, 'Oh, here I am still copying Jamie Foxx.'"

Tyler, the Creator and his Camp Flog Gnaw cohorts had to make the tough decision to postpone the festivities scheduled this weekend due to heavy rainfall in the Los Angeles area ... leaving some ticketholders' plans completely WASHED!!!

The announcement came just a day before CFG was slated to take over Dodger Stadium ... the new dates are now Nov. 22-23.

To add more drizzle to the downpour, the schedule change now makes it impossible for The Alchemist, Clairo, Don Toliver, Men I Trust, Sombr and TEMS to attend next weekend -- time to phone in some replacements!!!

Jamie Foxx went OFF this weekend after GloRilla allegedly had something chucked at her by a fan ... and TMZ’s got the video showing the moments leading up to the wild blow-up.

Check it out -- we still don’t actually see GloRilla get hit ... but she was mid-performance at SKVLK FEST -- Jamie’s daughter Anelise’s annual Halloween/birthday bash over the weekend -- when she suddenly stopped, thanked the crowd, and walked off ... right before Jamie went off.

As you can see, the visuals are a little murky -- the angle and distance don’t clearly show the object hitting GloRilla, and she doesn’t seem too fazed in the moment ... but Jamie’s fiery reaction makes it crystal clear he thinks she got hit by an object.

ROLE MODEL might have brought out one of his most iconic 'Sally' guests yet during his Austin City Limits performance ... and it's none other than the Disney queen herself -- Hilary Duff!!!

In case you aren't aware of ROLE MODEL's viral, fan-favorite bit he does when performing his hit song "Sally, When the Wine Runs Out" ... it began with the indie-pop star bringing up fans from the crowd to join him on stage and dance around to be his "Sally" for the night -- but then grew into celebrities like Kate Hudson, Natalie Portman, & Olivia Rodrigo making guest appearances.

ACL is basically Austin’s Coachella -- minus the desert, but plus BBQ goodness -- the city's biggest green space turns into a two-weekend music haven with massive headliners that takes over Zilker Park every October.

This year, the lineup is stacked with stars like Sabrina Carpenter, Hozier, Luke Combs, The Strokes, John Summit, Doechii, and originally Doja Cat -- however, Doja later pulled out, and The Killers have stepped in as her replacement for the Sunday slot.

This surprise appearance comes just weeks after HD hinted at potential "new music" in the works ... teasing the docuseries that is tied to her new album, which will be directed by and executive produced by Sam Wrench ... who brought Sabrina Carpenter's Christmas special and Taylor Swift's "Eras" tour concert film to life.

Fans are hopeful that this Sally surprise might lead to a music collab for the two singers ... but for now, the Lizzie McGuire stans are just going to have to keep on dreamin'.

Justin Bieber's keeping the love train with his wife Hailey rolling after being named one of the 2026 Coachella Festival's headliners ... and it looks like he's got a handful to deal with!

The performer shared a bunch of snaps on his Instagram account showing him with a handful of Hailey as they visited the music festival grounds in Indio, California -- and judging by the photos, it looks like he took in some pretty scenic views on his trip!

And hey, Justin remembered to keep the post G-rated at one point, because he included a pair of photos with his son, Jack Blues.

Fyre Festival is ready for its next chapter ... the infamous music festival has been acquired by LimeWire -- 8 years after its initial chaotic launch.

Reps for LimeWire tell TMZ ... the software company has acquired the Fyre Festival brand, with the purpose of launching a whole new project under this collaboration. The acquisition came about after a bidding war with Ryan Reynolds' company, Maximum Effort.

A source with knowledge tells TMZ ... Ryan put in a bid, since Maximum Effort was already making an ad for Visa skewering Fyre ... so, why not?!

The 2026 Coachella lineup is here ... and it's full of star power!

Check it out ... Sabrina Carpenter will open the uber popular California music festival on Friday, April 10 ... with Justin Bieber taking the main stage on Saturday, followed by Karol G on Sunday.

And, they'll do it all again the following weekend!

Teddy Swims, Katseye, FKA Twigs, Addison Rae, Sexyy Redd, Major Lazer, PinkPantheress and CMAT are also notable acts set to take the stage.

Zach Bryan and Gavin Adcock nearly turned the Born and Raised Festival into a fight night this weekend ... squaring up in a heated clash that played out right in front of fans.

The drama went down Saturday in Oklahoma just before Adcock was due to perform. In footage Adcock shared on Instagram, the country stars are seen shouting at each other from opposite sides of a wire fence.

"Hey, do you want to fight like a man? Come open the gate," Bryan can be heard yelling, before shoving the fence toward Adcock. Another clip, posted on Facebook, shows Bryan actually trying to climb over the barbed wire to get to Adcock but he was quickly restrained by security. Adcock, meanwhile, was escorted away by a bodyguard.
