Backstreet Boys have had it goin' on for 33 years.

The group considers April 20 their anniversary because on that day in 1993, Brian Littrell flew from Kentucky to Orlando, Florida, to officially join the group, completing the lineup that already included his cousin Kevin Richardson, Nick Carter, Howie Dorough and AJ McLean.

And while the group has had its ups and downs over the years — Kevin left at one point, but they continued as a four-piece — they've never actually split up. That's why on Monday the group was able to post about their 33rd anniversary.

On Instagram, they shared a montage of their recent activities, including their T-Mobile Super Bowl ad and their residency at Sphere Las Vegas. "One for the books!" they wrote. "Happy Backstreet Boys Day everyone!! 33 years strong because of each of you. Here we go 34."

In May, Backstreet Boys will perform at the BottleRock Napa Valley festival in California, and in July they'll resume their Sphere residency, which runs through Aug. 29. They'll head to Dusseldorf, Germany, in September to do a residency there from Sept. 25 through Oct. 7.

Noah Kahan has wormed his way into one family's heart by responding to their TikTok video.

A 5-year-old girl from Illinois named Caroline went viral on TikTok for a video that shows her finding an earthworm -- who she later named Mira -- and asking her mom to play Noah Kahan's music for it.

When her mom, Gianna, asked what song she wanted, Caroline requested "Orange Juice," a song from Stick Season about two friends, one of whom is an alcoholic who now says she's now sober.

"Orange juice in the kitchen/ bought for the children," Caroline added, quoting the song's lyrics.

Gianna sent the video to Caroline's grandmother Amanda, who posted it on TikTok. "The night I posted the video, it had a few comments and shares, and people were tagging Noah Kahan,” Amanda tells People. “I didn’t think too much about it.” But in the morning, she saw that the post had gotten hundreds of comments, including one from Noah.

"That worms gonna have some complicated feelings," Noah wrote.

Amanda then posted a follow-up video of Gianna telling Caroline that Noah saw the video and responded. "Oh my God! I'm so excited!" the little girl replied.

Amanda tells People, "Life, in general right now is so stressful and ugly for a lot of people. I hope that just for a moment anyone that watched this video took a pause, and enjoyed something so pure, just motivated by love.”

Billie Eilish's guest appearance during Justin Bieber's Coachella set Saturday night was so important to her, her mother took to Instagram to thank him.

Billie shared a closeup of her face on her Instagram Story with the caption, "Can't stop crying," referring to the moment Justin brought her onstage and serenaded her with his hit "One Less Lonely Girl." A longtime Bieber superfan, Billie first met Justin in 2019 and later teamed up with him on a remix of "bad guy."

Now, on Instagram, Billie's mom Maggie Baird has posted a video of Billie literally crawling onstage to reach Justin, along with photos of her crying while standing in the audience.

"One of the most touching moments ever. It sounds crazy, but we watch our children develop these deep deep connections to artists who move them and usually there’s nothing in our power to do," she wrote.

"But we buy them records and maybe buy them a ticket to a concert (or a movie of a concert in our case because we couldn’t afford to see an actual concert)," she added. "Watching this crazy unimaginable dream come true over many years is so incredible."

"I’m so grateful to Justin Bieber for the kindness he has shown Billie and to our whole family and to Hailey [Bieber] who makes so many things wonderful and possible," Maggie concluded, referring to the fact that Hailey encouraged Billie to join Justin onstage.

Hailey responded in the comments, "[Love] you guys!" and "so special."

Zara Larsson confirmed the release of a deluxe version of her album Midnight Sun, over the weekend, and now, we know at least one of the featured guests.

Zara joined her "Stateside" partner PinkPantheress onstage at Coachella on Saturday to perform a remix of her song "Midnight Sun." "Thank you my queen @pinkpantheress for having me on stage! I love the version of midnight sun that you made and I can’t wait for the world to hear your verse on may 1st," she wrote on Instagram.

Coachella weekend two was full of guest stars, including the Queen of Pop, Madonna, who made a surprise appearance during Sabrina Carpenter's set on Saturday night. Sabrina took to her Instagram Sunday to reflect on the moment.

"Madonna ..…I’ve got something i wanna talk about!" she wrote. "thank you for coming out, bringing your love, and gracing the audience with everything you are + astrology knowledge + the greatest songs of all time."

Sabrina was referring Madonna's seemingly random tangent during the set, when she told the audience that the alignment of the planets with the moon in Taurus indicates we need to "avoid confrontations."

She tied it all together by noting how music brings people together, then sang acapella, "Can we get together," from her 2005 track "Get Together."

Sabrina continued, "Last night was straight out of a dream. spending so much time laughing with you and then above all sharing the stage with you is a privilege I’ll never forget. x"

Sabrina and Madonna sang Madonna's hits "Vogue" and "Like a Prayer," as well as a yet-to-be-released song, possibly titled "Bring Your Love," which may appear on Madonna's upcoming album Confessions II.

In addition, Sabrina thanked her other special guests: Terry Crews, who appeared on stage for a comic interlude, and Geena Davis along with her Girl Meets World co-star Corey Fogelmanis, who appeared in a prerecorded segment. 

"This show and everyone involved is so beyond special to me," she concluded. "Sabrinawood forever!"

During sombr's first performance at Coachella, he brought out a '90s rock icon. For his return performance this past weekend, he threw it back to the '80s.

Sombr teamed up with Smashing Pumpkins' frontman Billy Corgan on April 11 to sing that band's hit "1979." And on Saturday night, he brought out another Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductee, Billy Idol, to sing Idol's 1984 hit "Eyes Without a Face." They were joined by Billy's longtime guitarist Steve Stevens, who's being inducted along with Billy.

"Thanks to the legends @billyidol & @stevestevens for joining me," sombr wrote on Instagram.  "Thank you for having @stevestevens and I," Billy wrote in the comments.

Sombr didn't forget the '90s, though: During his set, he covered Radiohead's song "Fake Plastic Trees."

On his Instagram Story, he wrote, "If you liked what you saw at Coachella, I'm coming to an arena near you in North America." Tickets for his You Are the Reason tour are on sale now. He'll play Mexico City and Red Rocks in July, with the tour proper starting September in Vancouver.

At Teddy Swims' Coachella show Friday, he brought back a guest from his April 10 appearance: ex-Van Halen singer David Lee Roth.  But that April 10 show -- which also featured Joe Jonas and Vanessa Carlton -- was truly a full-circle moment for Teddy, says Joe.

On April 10, Joe and Teddy teamed up to perform the Jonas Brothers song "When You Look Me in the Eyes." Speaking to ABC News, Joe explained that he first met Teddy a few years ago when he saw him perform in London and was "completely floored."  

"I thought it was one of the best live performances I've seen," Joe added.

Backstage, Joe said Teddy "told me this amazing story: that he loved the song '[When You] Look Me in the Eyes' in high school and him and his high school girlfriend went to ... me and the Brothers' concert back in the day, and he skipped football practice. And his coach found out and made him run a bunch of drills."

So when Joe realized that he and Teddy would both be at Coachella this year, he offered his services.

"I was like, 'Hey man, let me know if you need a background singer,' which turned into hopping up on stage and surprising the crowd," Joe told ABC News. "So it was overdue. I've been to Coachella seven, eight times I've never performed so I was thrilled to do it with Teddy."

But if you want to see Joe sing the song with his brothers, they've got some some dates coming up in May and August, with more to come. "We have tour dates that we've yet to announce," he revealed, while teasing "a lot of new music." 

Joe was speaking to ABC News about his new Target campaign for a limited-edition Pokémon collection, available now.

Justin Bieber switched things up for his second Coachella appearance Saturday night, bringing out different guests and performing different classic cuts -- but the "singing along with old YouTube videos" segment remained.

The biggest guest star was Bieber superfan Billie Eilish, who Justin brought onstage so he could serenade her with "One Less Lonely Girl."  The two first met at Coachella back in 2019 and later teamed up on a remix of "bad guy."

SZA also appeared for her "Snooze" remix with Justin, while Big Sean came out to perform "As Long as You Love Me" and "No Pressure." Sexyy Red popped up for "Sweet Spot," while Dijon was on hand for "Devotion." 

During the YouTube portion of the show, Justin pulled up videos of "One Time," "U Smile," "Up" and "Baby," and his cover of Justin Timberlake''s "Cry Me a River" and sang along to them. "I remember this like it was yesterday," he said of the Timberlake cover. "The guitar was out of tune."

"I just was a kid who liked to sing, that was it," Justin told the crowd, reminiscing about his YouTube cover songs, which is what led to him being discovered.

"Man, it's been a wild journey. It's been an emotional journey," he added.

You can watch the performance on Coachella's YouTube channel.

Justin's Coachella performances haven't just been good for his streaming numbers, either. Vogue Business reports that his Skylrk brand sold over $5 million worth of merch during the first Coachella weekend alone. That beat the previous merch record of $1.7 million over two weekends.

Meanwhile, there may be an indication that Justin is planning to take the show on the road. His website has been updated to read, "Click RSVP below to be notified when new tour dates are announced."

The audience during Addison Rae's Coachella set Saturday night was so surprised they could've dropped dead: Olivia Rodrigo popped up to give the live debut of her new single.

Olivia showed up while Addison was performing "Headphones On": Right after she sang the line, "I compare my life to the new 'it girl,'" Olivia appeared on top of the stairs on the stage set, wearing a pink bikini top and jeans. She smiled, waved and blew kisses as the crowd went wild.

She came down the stairs in time to join Addison for the line, "You just have to surrender to the moment," and continued singing through the rest of the song. 

“Coachella, how much do we love Miss Addison?” Liv asked after the song ended. “Oh my God, I might just drop dead,” Addison replied, before they launched into a duet version of Olivia's new song "drop dead."

It was Olivia's second appearance at Coachella: In 2024, she joined No Doubt during their reunion performance to sing "Bathwater" with Gwen Stefani. She has yet to play the festival on her own, but since she's likely to tour behind her upcoming album you seem pretty sad for a girl so in love, it may happen in 2027.

The rumors were true: Madonna was Sabrina Carpenter's surprise guest Friday night at Coachella.

The Queen of Pop appeared during "Juno," and teamed with Sabrina for duets of "Vogue" and "Like a Prayer." The two also performed a new song, possibly called "Bring Your Love," which is likely from Madonna's upcoming album Confessions II, a sequel to her 2005 album Confessions on a Dance Floor. 

Madonna also noted the significance of the moment, since it marked her return to Coachella after two decades. "20 years ago today I performed at Coachella -- I was in the dance tent and it was the first time I performed Confessions on a Dance Floor in America. And that was such a thrill for me, so you can image what a thrill [this] is for me. ... Same boots, with the same corset ... so it’s like a full circle moment, y'know?"

Madonna joked, "The other thrilling thing I want to point out is that this is probably the only time I've ever performed with someone that's shorter than me!" 

A few hours after the performance, Madonna released the first song from Confessions II, "I Feel So Free." The album's out July 3.

Geena Davis, Madonna's co-star in A League of Their Own, also appeared during the set in a pre-filmed segment, doing a monologue as an older version of Sabrina. Geena's Thelma & Louise co-star Susan Sarandon had done the same thing during Sabrina's first Coachella performance on April 10.

You can watch the whole performance on Coachella's YouTube channel.

We didn't know it then, but when Olivia Rodrigo played the U.K.'s Glastonbury Festival in June of 2025, she'd already written her new single "drop dead."  Now, she's confirmed that what she wore during part of that set was a deliberate reference to the song

At Glastonbury, Olivia performed a couple of songs with The Cure's Robert Smith, including their hit "Just Like Heaven." Then, during the encore, she wore a t-shirt that said, "You Know All The Words to 'Just Like Heaven'" -- to which Robert Smith had added, in Sharpie, "But do you?"

Of course, that seemed completely normal at the time -- she'd just performed the song, right? But when "drop dead" arrived today, we all found out that "You know all the words to 'Just Like Heaven'" is actually a lyric in the song. 

"I knew that this song was coming out and I wanted to, like, do a little Easter egg," Olivia tells Apple Music's Zane Lowe.

Asked if she played the song for Robert Smith, Olivia says, "Oh my God, I actually don't know if I played it for him. ... I played him a bunch of other songs on the album, I don't know why I didn't think to play this one for him though, I should."

As for the overall theme of "drop dead," Olivia tells Zane, "It's about a first date, and so it just feels like a new beginning and it's just trying to capture all those feelings of meeting someone that you have feelings for, and just being, like, nervous and, like, kind of insecure, but super-excited and just lovesick over this person."

Olivia's new album you seem pretty sad for a girl so in love is out June 12.

Fans are saying it's giving Rihanna and Shakira, or maybe Beyoncé or Shakira. Either way, Tyla and Zara Larsson are an instantly iconic duo in their new video for "She Did It Again."

Following the success of "Stateside," Zara continues her streak of joining women from a different country for a sexy bop by teaming with the Grammy-winning South African star for the sultry track about toying with a man's emotions. In it, Zara sings, "Put him in on his knees, not tryna tease/ Oops, did it again like Britney, that's how it is." Zara's a big fan of Britney's, covering Britney's "Gimme More" on her current tour. 

In the steamy video, both women are wearing a series of very skimpy outfits as they shimmy, shake and dance up on each other. At the end of the video, they're grinding on each other so enthusiastically that they both start laughing.

"Thank you my girl @tyla for having me on this songgggg I love it and I love you!!!!" Zara wrote on Instagram.

Ballerinas and burglary figure into the video for sombr's new sing 'Potential' -- with some dinosaurs thrown in for good measure.

In the song, sombr mourns a former relationship, singing, "We had potential/ Makes me mental/ Not having you." He also sings the very self-aware line, "It was a difficult breakup/ but I wrote some songs that got me famous."

In the video, sombr, his girlfriend and a pal are a crew of burglars: We see them robbing a convenience store and a jewelry store and generally having a great time. That's intercut with footage of a ballerina and her male partner dancing in the rotunda of a natural history museum, where the bones of a dinosaur are displayed.

Sombr and the girl eventually break into the natural history museum while the friend waits outside. It seems romantic as they walk around looking at the exhibits, until sombr trips an alarm while looking at an artifact and the police catch him and cuff him. As they take him away, he thinks of the girl, and we see the artifact he was looking at: a rock with a male and female figure painted on it, called "The Lovers."

Sombr debuted "Potential" at Coachella last weekend. He'll perform there again on April 18.
