Morgan Wallen Matches His Own Longest Run On The Hot 100
'I Had Some Help' by Post Malone and Morgan Wallen reaches 62 weeks on the Hot 100, tying Wallen's ... More longest-charting hit "You Proof" and passing Malone's 'Circles.' NASHVILLE, TENNESSEE - NOVEMBER 08: EDITORIAL USE ONLY (L-R) Post Malone and Morgan Wallen attend the 57th Annual CMA Awards at Bridgestone Arena on November 08, 2023 in Nashville, Tennessee. (Photo by) When Post Malone was looking to jump from hip-hop and pop into country, he reached out to some of the biggest names in the genre for help, and many of them are featured on his full-length F-1 Trillion. He received that assistance from many well-known acts, and he even acknowledged it in his breakout country tune 'I Had Some Help' to make it very clear he was not succeeding in the style all on his own. That track, which debuted at No. 1 on the Hot 100, benefited not just from Malone's popularity and the anticipation surrounding his career pivot, but also the inclusion of Morgan Wallen. The controversial singer-songwriter turned himself into the most successful musician in country several years back, and the duet was seen as a huge moment in pop culture. Well over a year after the two conquered a number of Billboard charts, 'I Had Some Help' ties as Wallen's longest-running smash ever. 'I Had Some Help' Matches Morgan Wallen's Longest Run 'I Had Some Help' has now spent 62 weeks on the Hot 100, as of this frame. As it reaches that milestone, the song ties as Wallen's longest-charting title ever on the list that ranks the most consumed songs in the United States. It's now on the same level as 'You Proof,' which also held on for 62 frames starting in May 2022. Unlike 'I Had Some Help,' however, 'You Proof' never reached the summit on the Hot 100. Instead, it peaked at No. 5. 'I Had Some Help' Still Holding On 62 frames into its lifetime on the Hot 100, 'I Had Some Help' doesn't appear to be vanishing anytime soon. The track drops five spaces to No. 19 this week, but that's largely due to a very busy frame, with several superstars scoring multiple new wins. Justin Bieber launches three tracks from his surprise album Swag ahead of 'I Had Some Help,' and his arrivals are largely responsible for Wallen and Malone's dip. The collaboration could easily rebound once Bieber's tunes begin to descend, or disappear entirely. A New Record in Sight for Morgan Wallen It's likely that 'I Had Some Help' will remain on the Hot 100 next week. If that turns out to be the case, the collaboration will officially become Wallen's longest-charting hit on the tally. The tune already holds that distinction for Malone, as it beats 'Circles' by one frame, as it holds on yet again.

No, Reed Richards Won't Lead the Avengers in ‘Doomsday'
We may not know much about Avengers: Doomsday right now, but we've known for months the Fantastic Four will be a core part of it. Now, we know something else about it: Pedro Pascal's Reed Richards isn't taking of the whichever Avengers team he winds up meeting. Earlier in July, Fantastic Four: First Steps director Matt Shakman described Reed to Variety as a man who 'goes from being a nerdy scientist to the husband and father who'd do anything to protect his family, to the guy who's leading the Avengers.' That kicked up a hornet's nest online, since in Earth-616 (the MCU version), Sam Wilson and Yelena Belova lead the two separate teams. Shakman later clarified that he wasn't speaking to Reed's specific arc in Doomsday specifically, and now it's Pascal's turn to chime in. The actor gently called Shakman's original comments 'a bit of a mislead. Something happens in the comics where Reed's sort of drawn in by the Avengers family and asked to be put into a leadership position. It isn't necessarily something that my character's future entails.' The actor stressed he was being completely honest in what he's saying, (and isn't trying to duck spoilers), and if we take him at his word, he is correct. Could Pedro Pascal lead the MCU's new Avengers? The "Fantastic Four" star responds. — AP Entertainment (@APEntertainment) July 24, 2025Comics-wise, Reed and other members of the Fantastic Four have joined the Avengers at some point throughout the decades, just as some Avengers have been in the Four. In recent history, his Avengers tenure was as a member of the Illuminati to help solve the larger Incursion problem throughout the multiverse in Jonathan Hickman and Mike Deodato Jr.'s New Avengers. The Incursion plotline is being adapted for Doomsday and its sequel Secret Wars, and fellow Illuminati members Professor X and Beast are slated to appear in the first film. With Beast and Charles with the X-Men, it falls to Reed to lend his expertise on the Avengers side of things—and we'll see if he's up to the task when Avengers: Doomsday releases December 18, 2026.

Justin Bieber Misses No. 1 On Billboard's Two Biggest Charts
Justin Bieber's Swag and lead single 'Daisies' both debut at No. 2, blocked from the Billboard 200 ... More and Hot 100's top spots by JackBoys and Alex Warren. LOS ANGELES, CA - APRIL 15: Justin Bieber is seen on April 15, 2025 in Los Angeles, California. (Photo by DUTCH/Bauer-Griffin/GC Images) GC Images Justin Bieber is used to hitting No. 1 on the Billboard charts, as he has done so dozens of times throughout his career and across a variety of rankings. When he surprise-released his new album Swag on July 11, it appeared he was headed for another chart-topping full-length, and after a few days, it looked like lead single "Daisies" might also compete for a No. 1 start on the Hot 100. Bieber came very close to making those predictions a reality, but in both instances, on Billboard's two most important and closely watched rankings, he missed the mark by just one space. Swag was poised to launch at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 until Travis Scott revealed his group JackBoys had a new album ready to share. JackBoys 2 dropped several days after Bieber's R&B-leaning project, yet it easily outpaced the pop star's latest release. JackBoys 2 opens at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 with 232,000 equivalent units, while Swag launches with just under 163,000, according to Luminate. This week marks the first time that Bieber has failed to debut a proper studio album at the top of the Billboard 200, as he's forced to settle for second place. At the same time that Swag opens at No. 2 on the Billboard 200, promotional cut "Daisies" fails to earn Bieber another No. 1 smash in America. The track, which wasn't pushed ahead of the album's release, debuts in the runner-up spot on the Hot 100, Billboard's ranking of the most-consumed songs in the U.S. "Daisies" is the highest-ranking debut from Swag and the only top 10 hit from the project, and this week, it lands behind "Ordinary" by Alex Warren. As it arrives, Bieber scores his twenty-seventh top 10 hit. Eight of those tunes have reached No. 1, while only a few — such as "Boyfriend," "Cold Water" with Major Lazer and MØ, and "I Don't Care" with Ed Sheeran — have stalled just one rung shy of the summit. A No. 2 debut for either a song or an album would be impressive for most artists. Launching in that position on both tallies at the same time is certainly notable — but for Bieber, it's a slight letdown. It's been years since the Canadian pop singer released a new album, and anticipation was quite high for whatever was coming next. He simply happened to pick a week when Scott and his bandmates were also planning a surprise drop, which is unfortunate for him. Had the release date shifted ever so slightly, it's likely the Grammy winner would have conquered the Billboard 200, and possibly also the Hot 100.
