Ashanti, Fabolous, Lloyd, And More Spread Nostalgic Love At My Platinum Playlist Concert
My Platinum Playlist invaded Los Angeles last weekend (May 10) for the ultimate millennial affair.
Presented by Bobby Dee and hosted by J. Valentino, the concert brought hundreds of fans to the Greek Theatre for an evening of Hip-Hop and R&B. The sun blared over the outdoor venue with temperatures well into the 90s, foreshadowing the heat that later arrived on stage.
As evening set in, the party began with a lively performance from Lumidee, cementing the party vibes at the nostalgic showcase. Nina Sky, Mike Jones, Lloyd, and Jeremih also performed their fan-favorite records as the audience stood on their feet and sang every word.

As the event continued, Fabolous took the stage to perform
To close the night, the 'princess' of Hip-Hop and R&B arrived centerstage in a camouflage outfit with eye-catching pink thigh-high boots. The chart-topping musician interacted with the crowd, inviting a sing-along to her biggest melodic hits. A special moment came when Lloyd returned and joined Ashanti on stage for a performance of their 2004 song 'Southside.' After they sang, Lloyd wished Ashanti a happy Mother's Day in her first year celebrating the annual holiday as a parent.
Take a look at moments from My Platinum Playlist in Los Angeles below.

Miley Cyrus speaks out about dad Billy Ray's romance with Elizabeth Hurley
Miley Cyrus is sharing her thoughts on her dad, Billy Ray Cyrus ' new relationship and reflecting on how their own bond has evolved. In a new interview with The New York Times published Saturday, the Grammy winner spoke candidly about Billy Ray's romance with actress Elizabeth Hurley, as well as her mom Tish Cyrus' marriage to actor Dominic Purcell. "Now that my mom is so in love with my stepdad, who I completely adore, and now that my dad, I see him finding happiness, too -- I can love them both as individuals instead of as a parental pairing," Miley told the outlet. "I'm being an adult about it." She continued, "At first it's hard, because the little kid in you reacts before the adult in you can go, 'Yes, that's your dad, but that's just another person that deserves to be in his bliss and to be happy.' My child self has caught up." Billy Ray and Tish Cyrus, who tied the knot in 1993, divorced in 2022 after nearly 30 years of marriage. They share three children -- Miley, Braison, and Noah -- and Billy Ray also adopted Tish's two older children, Brandi and Trace. Billy Ray went public with his relationship with Hurley on Easter Sunday. Their debut as a couple came just months after he finalized his divorce from his second wife, Firerose, in August 2024, according to People. In her New York Times interview, Miley also addressed longstanding speculation about her relationship with her father. When asked if they were estranged, she simply replied, "No." "I think timing is everything," she explained. "As I've gotten older, I'm respecting my parents as individuals instead of as parents -- because my mom really loved my dad for her whole life, and I think being married to someone in the music industry and not being a part of it is obviously really hard. And so I think I took on some of my mom's hurt as my own because it hurt her more than it hurt me as an adult, and so I owned a lot of her pain." Her comments followed a rare family photo that Billy Ray shared earlier this month, showing the family reunited to celebrate Braison's 31st birthday -- a moment that came after months of rumors about a rift between the father and daughter. Miley also directly addressed those rumors in a statement shared to her Instagram stories on May 10. "My dad and I have had our challenges over the years," she wrote at the time, per E! News. "Now, in my thirties, family is my priority above all else. I'm at peace knowing bridges have been built and time has done a lot of healing. Grateful for the good health and love that flows through my family." Billy Ray echoed those sentiments in his own Mother's Day post on Instagram, praising his daughter and the progress they've made. "I'm so proud of Miley and her guts and her courage... her wisdom and strength to bring it when our family needed it most," he wrote. "We are so close to a full healing."

Billie Eilish's New Single Matches The One That Made Her A Star
Billie Eilish's 'Wildflower' ties 'Bad Guy' as her second-longest-charting song on the Hot 100, ... More hitting 49 weeks on the tally. LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA - FEBRUARY 02: (FOR EDITORIAL USE ONLY) Billie Eilish performs onstage during the 67th GRAMMY Awards at Arena on February 02, 2025 in Los Angeles, California. (Photo by) Billie Eilish's most recent album Hit Me Hard and Soft recently celebrated its first birthday. The singer-songwriter released her third full-length in May 2024, and it was immediately welcomed as both a commercial and critical success. As the album continues to overperform across the Billboard rankings, two of its most popular songs are still present on the Hot 100, the most important tally for individual tracks in the U.S. Thanks to one more stay on that list, Eilish's current single reaches a very special milestone. "Wildflower," the current focus track from Hit Me Hard and Soft, is still charting on the Hot 100. At the moment, it marks 49 weeks on Billboard's ranking of the most-consumed tracks in the country. As "Wildflower" reaches 49 frames on the Hot 100, it ties with "Bad Guy" as her second-longest-charting track of all time on the competitive tally. While both "Wildflower" and "Bad Guy" have spent 49 weeks apiece on the Hot 100, their chart journeys have been quite different. "Bad Guy" debuted in April 2019 and reached No. 1 by August, becoming Eilish's first – and so far, only – leader. "Wildflower," however, opened at what turned out to be its peak, debuting on the Hot 100 in June 2024. Despite its longevity, "Wildflower" has only ever climbed as high as No. 17. This week, "Wildflower" declines more than 10 spaces, dipping from No. 44 to No. 58 on the Hot 100. That's a relatively low position for a cut that's nearing a full year on the roster, and it's not even Eilish's highest-rising smash at the moment. "Birds of a Feather" remains the longest-charting tune in Eilish's catalog on the Hot 100. Last frame, it became her first one-year charter. Now, it has collected a total of 53 appearances somewhere on the list. Currently, "Birds of a Feather" drops from No. 12 to No. 17 after peaking at No. 2, where it became one of Eilish's most successful releases to date – and one of two to stall in the runner-up space, joining 'Therefore I Am.'
