He followed up with a groundbreaking halftime show, becoming the first solo hip-hop performer to headline the coveted slot. He is currently on the Grand National Tour with SZA. Carey, Foxx, Snoop Dogg and Kirk Franklin will receive the Ultimate Icon Award, which selected due to their impact on entertainment as well as their community impact and advocacy.

Why fans think Mariah Carey isn't singing on her comeback track... amid claims she's been replaced with AI
Mariah Carey has been caught up in another wild conspiracy theory just weeks after fans believed that she'd been replaced by AI. The diva, 56, returned to the music scene with a new rap single this week called Type Dangerous, but a lot of fans have pointed out that Mimi sounds different compared to before. 'Is it just me or it doesn't sound like Mariah at all,' asked one confused listener. 'Is it just me or does Mariah's new song sound like a JLo song? Also… she sounds nothing like herself, the overproduction is weird. Doesn't sound like her even a little,' wrote another. A third wrote, 'Now who is singing bc that doesn't sound like Mariah.' Another added, 'What's strange about this new Mariah song is I saw her live a year and a half ago and she can very much still sing live. Why on earth did they add whatever this is on top of her voice? It doesn't even sound like her.' However, other fans argued that the talented vocalist was just using a different style of singing. 'Just listened to Mariah Carey's new song. She used her voice in a different way than we're used to, but the song is nice! I like it,' wrote one. Another explained, 'She's just using her lower voice and experimenting. She's always doing something new and original.' It comes after Mariah left some of her Australian fans confused after appearing disinterested as she sat down for an interview with The Project. The pop diva gave a series of short answers, sometimes uttering single word reposes in a bored monotone while speaking with host Georgie Tunny. When asked how she handles criticism, Mariah replied simply: 'By not coping is what I do.' After a pause she continued: 'I mean, just don't pay attention to it, you know? And everybody else goes through it, so... whatever.' The 56-year-old was also asked what she'd like on her tour rider for her upcoming Aussie tour, to which Mariah oddly replied in deadpan: 'A kangaroo.' Mariah was likewise asked about her notorious love of good lighting, to which she said dismissively: 'Good lighting is everything. I don't know why people even have rooms that are poorly lit.' The interview plodded along at painful length, with some viewers branding it 'bizarre' and some even asking if the clip was AI. 'Was that an AI version of MC? That poor lady. I feel sorry for you. You did your best. She hasn't been called a DIVA for no reason... Maybe in the shadow sooner then she likes' wrote one person. 'Sure she wasn't an AI version of Carey? Weird smile, no eye contact. Bot for sure' someone else asked. 'That was the most bizarre interview!!' yet another chimed in. Despite the controversy, Mariah is currently preparing to release her 16th studio album. According to Forbes, the songstress, who has 19 number one singles, is aiming to get her 20th chart topper with Type Dangerous. 'She's fighting to stay contemporary,' her longtime producer LA Reid told the publication. Mariah left her label Epic Records, who released her last album Caution, to partner with new music company Gamma for her comeback.

Sabrina Carpenter bares all in cheeky teaser clip as she hints at next project
Sabrina Carpenter fans have been left too stunned to speak amid the news of a possible new song titled 'Manchild', with many claiming the next track will make her 'Queen of Summer' Sabrina Carpenter raised the temperatures after posting an impromptu cheeky clip possibly teasing some new music. Fans are already claiming it to be 'the song of the summer', with others also thinking it could be a shout out to her ex, Barry Keoghan. The singer shook the internet after sharing a vintage-inspired teaser clip on her social media accounts. Wearing a white top, a pair of cheeky denim shorts and course, platform high heels, Sabrina is seen hitchhiking, but is ignored by two cars passing by. The 17-second clip is silent, with no music heard over the scene and ends with Sabrina saying "Oh, boy." The new song is believed to be titled 'Manchild' after several billboards with her initials 'SC' were spotted across the US. At the age of 26, Sabrina has secured her status as a rising pop star after releasing her hit song 'Espresso' in April 2024. What was meant to be "a little song before Coachella" ended up reaching the number three spot on the Billboard Hot 100 and spent over a year on the chart. It also marked Sabrina's first top-ten single, leading her to win her first-ever Grammy award for Best Pop Solo Performance. With currently 2.27 billion streams on Spotify, 'Espresso' became the summer song for 2024 -and now, fans are hopeful that 'Manchild' could be the summer anthem of 2025. One commented: 'Sabrina saved summer 2024 with espresso, now coming to save summer 2025,' with another adding: 'Song of the summer incoming.' A third fan wrote: 'We're going to have a sabrina carpenter song called 'Manchild'... That's powerful.' Adding a GIF clip of four women making a manifestation, one joked: 'Sabrina Carpenter's new single will not be about Barry Keoghan.' "So excited for Sabrina Carpenter's new single 'Manchild' to drop!," a fan commented. Another one said: "OMFG SABRINA CARPENTER IS BACK WE ARE SO F***ING READY." Naturally, the possibility of new music has excited Sabrina fans, who have been craving a taste of what she has been working on. The teaser comes after rumours that Sabrina was cast as the lead character for the upcoming sequel of Mamma Mia 3. The former Disney Channel star could follow in the footsteps of Meryl Streep, Amanda Seyfried and Lily James at the heart of the beloved franchise. And for fans eager to bring to an end the seven-year drought since the release of Mamma Mia 2, they may not have much longer to wait. The creator behind the original West End show and its two immensely popular movie spin-offs off Judy Cramer has revealed she has written a script and work for the ABBA-themed musical is once again in the works. Speaking to Deadline, the producer hinted at Carpenter's remarkable resemblance to both Seyfried and Streep's original character: "She'd be a goddess or some relation who would look very much like Meryl Streep," she said. "We know what we want to do with the movie, and it will happen.'
