Could Beyoncé's Cowboy Carter Tour Guests Lead to First ‘Telephone' Performance With Lady Gaga?
On the new Billboard Pop Shop Podcast, Katie & Keith are talking about the pair of A-list guests who popped up with Beyoncé at two of her Paris concerts on the Cowboy Carter Tour — Miley Cyrus on Thursday night and Jay-Z (Bey's husband and frequent collaborator) on Saturday — and why we're hoping the cameos could lead to something very big.

You see, next month, Lady Gaga's Mayhem Ball tour kicks off at Las Vegas' T-Mobile Arena, with three dates July 16-18, while Beyoncé wraps up her Cowboy Carter Tour at Vegas' Allegiant Stadium, with two dates July 25-26. Is there a world where either Bey pops up for Gaga's opening weekend or Gaga makes her way back from three Mayhem dates in San Francisco (July 22-26 — no concert on the 25th!) to share the stage with Bey? If the stars align, those lucky fans could potentially see the first-ever performance of the superstar duo's 2010 top five Billboard Hot 100 hit 'Telephone.'
Listen to our full conversation about the possibility on the Pop Shop Podcast:
Also on the show, we've got chart news on Alex Warren's 'Ordinary' returning to No. 1 on the Hot 100 and Morgan Wallen's I'm the Problem continuing its run atop the Billboard 200 albums chart, while ATEEZ, Lil Tecca and Brandon Lake all debut in the top 10. Plus, we're chatting about the just-announced Brandy and Monica co-headlining tour, kicking off in October, and Katie tells Keith all about her latest Vegas adventure, checking out night 1 of New Kids on the Block's Park MGM residency and even chatting with the guys ahead of the show.

Wendy's unveils Wednesday-themed 'Meal of Misfortune': When you can get it
Wendy's has announced a new meal in collaboration with the hit Netflix show "Wednesday" that the restaurant chain calls "pure punishment in a bag." The company unveiled on – you guessed it – Wednesday, July 23, the Wendy's Wednesday Meal of Misfortune. The limited-time meal is centered around four mystery sauces called the "Dips of Dread," along with "Rest in 10-Piece" nuggets, small "Cursed & Crispy" fries, and a new Frosty flavor called "Raven's Blood." The items will all be served in custom packaging, according to Wendy's. The meal will coincide with the release of Season 2 of "Wednesday" that will premiere on Netflix. The show will be in two parts. Part 1 will debut Aug. 6 at 3 a.m. ET and Part 2 will premiere Sept. 3 at 3 a.m. ET. More news: What to know about 'Wednesday' Season 2: Jenna Ortega returns with Lady Gaga When will the Wednesday meal be available? The items will be available at restaurants nationwide beginning Monday, Aug. 4, or via the Wendy's app on Wednesday, Aug. 6, according to Wendy's. In Canada, customers can get the meal in restaurants or via the Wendy's app starting Monday, Aug. 11. Will the Wednesday meal be available at all Wendy's locations? The company said the Meal of Misfortune will also be available at Wendy's locations in Puerto Rico, the Bahamas, and Guam. "Wendy's and Wednesday are both cultural icons famous for challenging convention with wit and a bit of sass," said Liz Geraghty, international chief marketing officer for The Wendy's Company, in a news release. "This isn't a typical collaboration, because not just any brand could scheme up a Meal of Misfortune with Wednesday Addams. But for a brand that's proudly customer-obsessed and unapologetically bold, it was a match made in dark, dry-witted heaven." What kinds of sauces are the 'Dips of Dread'? Wendy's said two mystery dipping sauces come in each meal, adding that "fate will decide which of the four dips" customers receive. The four flavors are called: You Can't Hyde This Will Sting Grave Mistake Nowhere to Woe "Don't bother asking which sauce you'll get – you must surrender to your destiny. Those brave enough to try them all must endure multiple visits," Wendy's said in the news release.
