Red Hot Chili Peppers Make It To A Huge Milestone For The Very First Time
Red Hot Chili Peppers' Greatest Hits climbs on two U.K. lists and reaches 450 weeks on the Official ... More Albums chart — more than twice as long as any other release.

The Red Hot Chili Peppers are having quite the week across the pond. The rock band is making its presence felt with a pair of projects, both of which are performing well at the moment. As one returns, the other is enjoying reaching a special milestone. It seems that no matter how much time passes, one compilation from the group remains a must-play for fans across the United Kingdom.
The Red Hot Chili Peppers can almost always be found on the charts in the U.K. with Greatest Hits, the simply-titled retrospective that features many of the band's most famous tracks. This frame, the compilation improves on both of the tallies where it regularly shows up.
Greatest Hits rises on the Official Albums Streaming chart, lifting from No. 52 to No. 45. It also advances on the all-genre Official Albums ranking, moving up nine spaces to No. 51. That latter tally is focused on the most-consumed full-lengths and EPs in the country each week.
As it holds on, Greatest Hits has now spent 450 weeks somewhere on the Official Albums chart. That's a remarkable feat that a relatively few titles have managed. It's also the first effort by Red Hot Chili Peppers to hit that number.
While Greatest Hits leads the band's catalog in terms of longevity, it's not the only Red Hot Chili Peppers album with a strong showing over the years. Californication ranks as the second-longest-running effort, with 169 total weeks on the chart. Just behind it is Blood Sugar Sex Magik, which has now racked up 121 weeks on the tally.
Speaking of Californication, that project is also back in the spotlight this week. While it doesn't appear on the Official Albums chart this time around, it's present once again on two other closely-watched rankings. The band's bestselling traditional release returns to both the Official Physical Albums chart (No. 91) and the Official Albums Sales roster (No. 97).
Californication has already passed the one-year mark on each of those lists. In fact, it's spent several hundred weeks on the physical-only tally, which focuses solely on CD and vinyl sales, and just over a year on the all-encompassing purchase ranking.

Naive American tourist hilariously falls for ‘genius' London restaurant prank: ‘Talk about a mis-steak'
This American tourist got served — in more ways than one. Liam Nelson, a New York comedian in London for a gig, thought he'd sniffed out a hidden culinary standout when he stumbled across glowing online reviews for Angus Steakhouse in Leicester Square. But what did he actually find? A side of steak with a supersized helping of British sarcasm. 'I went on Reddit, every single response was Angus Steakhouse in Leicester Square,' Nelson said in a June 1 TikTok video, captioned 'Talk about a mis-steak…,' which quickly racked up over 127,000 views. 'I thought maybe this is a little hole-in-the-wall area next to all these shops, like a secret hidden gem.' Turns out, he was the latest victim of a long-running British prank — London Redditors have been 'love bombing' tourist-trap chains like Angus with five-star reviews to keep real foodies away from the city's actual best eateries, as reported by The Daily Mail. 'I found an article about how London Reddit has tried to send tourists to Angus Steakhouse to preserve the good steakhouses for themselves — genius,' he said in his nearly six-minute clip. 'I have never seen Reddit all agree on a restaurant before,' Nelson added. 'And they all had these glowing reviews … Some voice in the back of my head was saying 'this is wrong, this is not normal' and I ignored it.' Not exactly a red flag he picked up on — until it was too late. The joint, he soon discovered, was actually 'loud,' 'chaotic' and came with a 'giant neon sign.' A New York funnyman thought he found a sizzling hidden gem in London — until a juicy twist at Angus Steakhouse left a bad taste. WD Stock Photos – Then came the gray slab of steak. 'It was bad. I tried the creamed spinach — worse than frozen somehow. London Reddit, that is one for you, zero for me.' Fellow TikTokkers had a field day with the viral video. 'As a London Redditor who actively takes part in this joke; I'm not sorry,' one user gloated beneath Nelson's clip. Another added, 'Hahaha I'm glad it actually got someone,' while someone else summed it up with, 'WE GOT ONE.' Others offered redemption suggestions in the comments section: 'Go Flat Iron, it's in Covent Garden, affordable decent steak,' and 'Next time you're in London, get a steak at the Guinea Grill Pub in Mayfair! Incredible steakhouse.' Turns out, Nelson got played — locals have been flooding tourist-trap chains like Angus with five-star reviews in a cheeky bid to steer foodies far from the real gems. Tiktok/liamnelsoncomedy The whole beefy debacle comes amid rising tension between real reviews and fake raves — a trend The Post has covered before. Earlier this year, a Florida restaurant tried — and failed — to sue a customer over a one-star review. Irene Eng, a prolific Yelp and TripAdvisor reviewer, was slapped with a defamation lawsuit by Hales Blackbrick, a Chinese eatery in Tampa, after calling its spare ribs 'dry' and its coffee 'lukewarm — a Cardinal sin!!' The suit was tossed in February, with the judge siding with Eng's First Amendment rights. 'I'm 1,000% for freedom of speech — you can say whatever you want,' chef Richard Hales later told the Tampa Bay Times. 'We're not thin-skinned, we're just humans.' Still, the great steak debate rages on. And for now, Nelson's just hoping his next meal won't be medium-rare — or medium-roasted by the internet.

Sabrina Carpenter Hitchhikes Through Mayhem in 'Manchild' Music Video: Watch
The post Sabrina Carpenter Hitchhikes Through Mayhem in 'Manchild' Music Video: Watch appeared first on Consequence. Sabrina Carpenter has revealed the official music video for her new song, 'Manchild.' Directed by Vania Heymann and Gal Muggia, the video takes place primarily on the road in the American west. It finds Carpenter hitchhiking and ending up in a variety of scenes and situations ranging from the mundane to the absurd, with dozens of different costumes and looks to match. Get Sabrina Carpenter Tickets Here Throughout, Carpenter ends up in (or around) multiple different vehicles (like a jetski-converted car, an electric mobile chair, a shopping cart sidecar, and a car with trees growing on top), shoots pool with a shotgun, runs with a puppy from gunfire, smokes a cigarette at a gas station while her driver douses himself in gasoline, hitches a ride by roller skating and grabbing onto a massive truck, takes a bubble path with two pigs, and gets in all sorts of crazy spats with the men she encounters on the road. When it ends, she ditches her ride, sticks her thumb back up, and grabs the next available vehicle. Watch the official video below. Carpenter's 'Manchild' arrives as a standalone single after the deluxe release of her 2024 album Short n' Sweet arrived in February. The single is being pressed on a clear transparent 7-inch vinyl along with a B-side called 'inside of your head when you've just won an argument with a man.' She teased both the single and its music video earlier this week, posting a short clip of her hitchhiking with the caption, 'this one's about you!!' Carpenter is also heading on tour this summer and fall, with headlining sets to come at Lollapalooza, Austin City Limits, and this weekend's Primavera Sound.
