Taylor Swift Makes Headlines After Winning Prestigious Award on Wednesday
After performing nearly 150 shows worldwide in 2024 during her record-breaking "Eras Tour," Taylor Swift has remained largely out of the spotlight throughout most of 2025.
However, her public appearance on Sunday alongside her boyfriend Travis Kelce and both of their families for Mother's Day may signal her return to the public eye — especially with fans still awaiting new music this year.
Swift, who is nominated for six awards at the upcoming American Music Awards on May 26, made headlines early Wednesday morning after being announced as the recipient of two major BMI honors.
The 35-year-old was named "Songwriter of the Year" for the second consecutive year and was also recognized for "Most Performed Songs of the Year," with hits like "Don't Blame Me," "Fortnight," and "Now That We Don't Talk" among the most-played tracks. Additionally, she received publishing awards for seven different songs.
"Big congrats to @taylorswift13, our 2025 #BMIPopAwards Songwriter of the Year — once again! With genre-defining hits like 'Don't Blame Me,' 'Fortnight,' 'Is It Over Now?' and so many more, Taylor continues to shape the sound of a generation."
While her success from 2024 is undeniable — and with more accolades expected at the American Music Awards later this month — Taylor Swift has continued to make waves in 2025 thanks to the staying power of her hit songs and albums.
On Tuesday, her 2020 album "evermore" saw a spike in streaming, jumping over 13% for the day and surpassing 300 million streams on Spotify in 2025 alone.
This makes "evermore" her 10th album to hit that milestone this year, despite none of the music being newly released. She remains the only artist to have 10 separate albums cross 300 million streams in 2025, and she accomplished it in less than 133 days.

Case in point: The supermodel and the A Star Is Born actor were in good spirits as they walked hand-in-hand to Il Mulino in New York City. While waiting outside the Italian restaurant, the couple—who have been dating since 2023—were seen sharing a laugh before hopping onto a FaceTime call with Bradley's longtime friend Will Arnett. For their date night, Gigi, 30, donned on a yellow dress and an oversized brown leather jacket. She accessorized her summery look with white socks and brown loafers. Meanwhile, Bradley, 50, kept it casual with a dark button-down top, matching pants and black boots. He completed his 'fit with sunglasses and a camouflage print baseball cap.

After all, Gigi and Bradley have been on several outings with and boyfriend Travis Kelce, including to the singer's Eras Tour show in Paris last year. More from E!

"I got to see Gigi and Bradley—BC, Big Coop—we were all in the suite having a blast." And this April, there was another star-studded hangout at Gigi's 30th birthday, with Anne Hathaway, Tan France, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, Martha Hunt and the Guest in Residence founder's sister gathering alongside Bradley to celebrate the milestone. Still, Gigi—who shares 4-year-old daughter Khai with ex Zayn Malik—does prefer to keep her romance with Bradley as low-key as possible. As she explained in a March interview with Vogue, "You want to give yourself a normal experience of dating and even for my friends who aren't public figures, that's hard." "Then there's another added layer of privacy and security," continued Gigi, who met Bradley at a backyard birthday party for a mutual friend's kid. "You want to believe that people are going to have your back and not call TMZ or go on Deuxmoi or whatever, but you just don't know." For more on their relationship, keep reading.

Miley Cyrus Teases Spotify Billions Club Live Show in Paris (And a Concert Film Is Coming, Too)
Miley Cyrus is headed to Paris for a very special concert celebrating some of her biggest hits, with the pop star teasing Wednesday (June 11) that she'll be performing at Spotify's next Billions Club Live concert later this month. The news comes via X, on which the streaming giant first posted a lyric to Cyrus' 'End of the World' — 'Let's go to Paris, I don't care if we get lost in the scene' — and added, '@MileyCyrus, you coming?' More from Billboard DJ Akademiks Denies Taking Payola From Drake During Kendrick Battle Raekwon and Ghostface Killah Release Trailer for 'Only Built 4 Cuban Linx' Documentary SEVENTEEN Have a Good Time Being a 'Bad Influence' in Futuristic Video For Pharrell-Produced Single The singer then reposted the message and wrote: 'I'll meet you there. Next week. #BillionsClubLive.' Billions Club Live was introduced last December, with The Weeknd playing the first show in the series for about 2,000 people in Los Angeles to celebrate his long roster of songs that have surpassed a billion Spotify streams. The crowd was made up of fans selected for being in the 'Blinding Lights' artist's top percentage of listeners on the music service. Cyrus has several songs that have reached the ten-digit milestone, including 'Wrecking Ball,' 'We Can't Stop,' 'Angels Like You' and 'Party in the U.S.A.' The Spotify concert comes on the heels of her new album Something Beautiful, which dropped May 30 and debuted this week at No. 4 on the Billboard 200. The LP marks her first full-length since 2023's Endless Summer Vacation, which spawned eight-week Billboard Hot 100-topper 'Flowers' — a song that has garnered more than 2 billion streams on the platform, meaning fans in Paris can almost definitely expect that she'll perform it during her Billions Club Live show. Spotify confirmed to Billboard that this Billions Club Live show will be filmed and released as a concert film later this summer. The upcoming show will be especially meaningful as Cyrus' live performances are few and far between these days. When she does perform, it's usually in an intimate setting — such as the Chateau Marmont, where she recently hosted a Something Beautiful listening party. In 2023, the Hannah Montana alum announced that she had no intention of touring for the foreseeable future. While promoting Something Beautiful on Apple Music 1 in May, Cyrus elaborated on her decision to skip touring, noting that staying off the road is best for her sobriety and protecting her vocal cords.

Sabrina Carpenter to Follow ‘Short n' Sweet' With New Album ‘Man's Best Friend': Here's When It Arrives
Sabrina Carpenter's break between her last album and next LP was short and sweet, with the pop star announcing Wednesday (June 11) that she has another full-length titled Man's Best Friend coming out this summer. Sharing the news on Instagram, Carpenter unveiled the project's sensual cover art — a photo of the Grammy winner down on her knees in black stilettos, held in place by a man gripping a fistful of her hair — and revealed that it will arrive Aug. 29. 'i can't wait for it to be yours x,' she added in her caption. More from Billboard Sabrina Carpenter Summer 2.0 Commences With New Single 'Manchild': Stream It Now DJ Akademiks Denies Taking Payola From Drake During Kendrick Battle Raekwon and Ghostface Killah Release Trailer for 'Only Built 4 Cuban Linx' Documentary According to its Spotify countdown page, Man's Best Friend will feature 12 tracks, including lead single 'Manchild,' which recently dropped and is gunning for a high debut on the Billboard Hot 100. The country-tinged track — co-written and produced alongside Carpenter's Short n' Sweet collaborators Jack Antonoff and Amy Allen — finds the Girl Meets World alum playfully calling out incompetent men. 'Manchild, why you always come a-running to me?/ F–k my life, won't you let an innocent woman be?' she sings on the song. 'Never heard of self-care/ Half your brain just ain't there.' Man's Best Friend comes close on the heels of Carpenter's breakthrough album Short n' Sweet, which dropped last August and propelled the singer to superstar status through Billboard Hot 100 top 10 singles 'Espresso' and 'Taste.' The LP marked her first-ever No. 1 entry on the Billboard 200, where it reigned at the top for four weeks, and spawned her first Hot 100 No. 1, 'Please Please Please.'
