Billie Eilish Adds New Tour Dates — & Fans Are Already Losing It Over Her ‘Hit Me Hard and Soft' Era
Just when fans thought tickets were all sold out, Billie Eilish has hit again — this time with a fresh wave of 2025 tour dates that are sending the internet into a frenzy. On May 17, the Grammy and Oscar-winning artist officially announced a second North American leg of her Hit Me Hard and Soft world tour, expanding what's already one of the most anticipated live music events of the decade.
The announcement comes as excitement around Eilish's third studio album, also titled Hit Me Hard and Soft , reaches a fever pitch. After kicking off with shows across Europe, Australia, and select U.S. cities, Billie will now return stateside for a fall 2025 run — adding multiple dates in major markets like Miami, New Orleans, Philadelphia, and San Francisco.

Following her two-night run at the Saitama Super Arena in Japan this August, Eilish will hit the road in the U.S. again starting in Miami on October 9, with additional shows stretching through late November. The new dates mark a continuation of the global tour that fans have been scrambling to attend since it was first announced earlier this year.
Pre-sale tickets for the upcoming U.S. and Tokyo shows will be available to American Express® Card Members starting today, May 20, at 12:00 PM local time for U.S. shows, and May 22 at 12:00 PM JST for Tokyo shows. General ticket sales open Thursday, May 22 via billieeilish.com.

Hit Me Hard and Soft , released on May 17, is already being praised as Eilish's most intimate and genre-bending project to date. With standout tracks like 'Lunch,' 'Chihiro,' and 'Birds of a Feather,' the album balances vulnerability and experimentation — delivered with the moody elegance that's become her signature.
While the Hit Me Hard and Soft album visuals hinted at a softer, dreamier evolution, Billie's tour wardrobe proves she's still loyal to the look that made her an icon. On stage, she's embracing her signature oversized streetwear — baggy tees, athletic shorts, sneakers, and layered accessories. It's a continuation of her personal comfort-first aesthetic, now sharpened with maturity and intentional restraint. Given her past collaborations with designers like Rick Owens and Gucci, it's safe to say we can continue to expect looks that make just as big a statement as the music.

Billie, now 23, has always defied expectations. But this era feels more intentional, more cinematic, and more personal. Co-produced with her brother and longtime collaborator Finneas, the album was designed to be listened to in full — no singles, no skips, just immersive storytelling.
Thematically, the album explores identity, longing, loneliness, and desire with poetic depth. It's moody but not melancholic, edgy but not chaotic. And fans are responding in kind, seeing their own emotional evolution mirrored in hers.

The Beer Store adds 12 more locations to its long list of closures this year
Ontario's Beer Store has added another 12 locations to its ever-growing list of closures as alcohol sales grow in the province's grocery and convenience stores. The closures, effective Oct. 19, are scattered across the province, but include three stores in Toronto, and adds to the 44 locations that the retailer has already closed or will be closing. 'The Beer Store is modernizing to meet the changing marketplace and unfortunately this means making the hard decision to close retail locations,' Ozzie Ahmed, vice-president of retail at the Beer Store, said in a release. 'We know this is difficult news for customers. As the Beer Store modernizes, our locations will continue to provide friendly customer service and a deposit return system that gets consumers their money back.' The Beer Store, legally operating as Brewers Retail Inc., once had a near monopoly on beer sales in Ontario for decades, but that has slowly changed since 2015, when the provincial government opened the door to beer and wine sales in some grocery stores. Ontario Premier Doug Ford expanded the program last year by opening beer sales to all grocery stores and convenience stores. As part of the plan, he announced $225 million in public funding to help the Beer Store maintain at least 300 locations through the end of 2025. The company had 407 stores in 2024, according to its operations report that year. Despite the closures, it has committed to maintaining its recycling program until at least 2031, while participating grocery and convenience stores must begin to accept empties on Jan. 1, 2026. Here's a look at the upcoming closures and those that have already closed: Effective Oct. 19, 2025: 882 Ward St., Bridgenorth 8647 Hwy. #60, Eganville 89 Main St. S., Forest 21 Ontario St. N., Grand Bend 398 King St. W., PO Box 249, Harrow 53 Meredith St. E., PO Box 210, Little Current 33 Argyle St., Markdale 142 David St. N., Noëlville 704 Main St., Sauble Beach 3078 Don Mills Rd., Toronto 900A Don Mills Rd., Unit #100, Toronto 800 Gerrard St. E., Toronto Effective Sept. 14, 2025: 2020 Appleby Line, Burlington 3322 5 Hwy. #17, Deep River 229 Dundurn St. S, Hamilton 12334 Hwy. #41, PO Box 17, Northbrook 1910 St. Laurent Blvd., Ottawa Erie St. S, #21 Hwy, Ridgetown 41 Front St, Sioux Lookout 636 Greenwood Ave., Toronto 4479 Kingston Rd, Toronto 4681 Hwy # 7, Unionville The Beer Store closes 10 more locations Few Ontario grocery stores accepting booze empties Already closed: 1953 Ravenscroft Rd., Ajax 4501 Bath Rd., Amherstview 14800 Yonge St., Aurora 93 Notre Dame St. E., Azilda 130 Cedar St., Cambridge 6716 Hwy.#35, PO Box 269, Coboconk 1396 2nd St. E., Cornwall 227 Cambridge Ave., Iroquois Falls 3rd Ave. & Main St., Levack 5804 Hwy 7, Markham 51 Millside Dr., Milton 1015 Bronte St. S., Milton 2925 Eglinton Ave. W., Mississauga 3154 Hurontario St., Mississauga 65 Queen St. N., Mississauga 1431 Rebecca St., Oakville 104 Lakeshore Rd.

Traffic alert: Emergency bridge work closes lanes on Massachusetts Turnpike
State transportation officials are urging drivers to avoid part of the Massachusetts Turnpike on Monday due to emergency bridge repair work that is causing traffic delays. Crews were working on the I-90 eastbound bridge that carries traffic over Brookfield Road in Charlton at mile marker 82.3, according to the Massachusetts Department of Transportation. Two eastbound travel lanes have been closed to allow for the work. 'Drivers traveling through the affected area should expect delays, reduce speed, and use caution,' MassDOT warned in a statement. 'Drivers are encouraged to avoid the area and seek alternate routes.' MassDOT said that the lane closures are expected to remain in place for several hours. Officials noted that appropriate signage and messaging will be placed to guide drivers through the work area. Download the FREE Boston 25 News app for breaking news alerts.

2025 Tour Championship purse, payouts: How much is up for grabs at East Lake in the FedExCup Playoffs?
The end of the FedExCup Playoffs are here. The last 30 golfers standing will hit the course this week at East Lake Golf Club in Atlanta with the FedExCup on the line. With it comes a massive $40 million purse — a quarter of which will go to the winner come Sunday afternoon. The purse is the largest on Tour each season, more than double that of what was offered at the British Open and PGA Championships. The U.S. Open had a $21.5 million purse to lead the major championships, just $500,000 more than what was offered at Augusta National. Outside of this limited playoff event, The Players Championship had a $25 million purse to lead the way in the sport. The purse this week is so big that the top eight finishers will take home a seven-figure prize. Even the person who comes in last will earn $355,000. By comparison, Andrew Novak won just $70,000 for his last-place finish at the BMW Championship. Scottie Scheffler, fresh off his fifth win of the season on Sunday at the BMW Championship, is entering the Tour Championship with a massive lead in the FedExCup standings. That, however, doesn't matter anymore after the PGA Tour opted to eliminate the starting strokes format for this final event. Scheffler and the 29 golfers will all start the week at even par, meaning the tournament is still up for grabs. Scheffler, however, is undoubtedly the favorite. He has now won 12 times in the past two seasons on Tour, three of which have come at major championships, and he's finished inside the top 10 in every start he's made dating back to March. He's starting the week listed at +125 to win on BetMGM. If Scheffler can win this week, he'd be the first back-to-back winner in FedExCup history. Here's how much is on the line this week for the 30 golfers in Atlanta. 2025 Tour Championship payouts 1. $10 million2. $5 million3. $3.705 million4. $3.2 million5. $2.75 million6. $1.9 million7. $1.4 million8. $1.065 million9. $900,00010. $735,00011. $695,00012. $660,00013. $625,00014. $590,00015. $560,00016. $505,00017. $490,00018. $475,00019. $460,00020. $445,00021. $430,00022. $415,00023. $400,00024. $390,00025. $380,00026. $375,00027. $370,00028. $365,00029. $360,00030. $355,000
