Jonas Brothers Earn A Quick Bestseller With New Album
Since then, the three brothers have kept up a steady flow of singles and projects, as they've worked to reclaim the chart presence they enjoyed earlier in their career. Now, their sixth studio effort Greetings from Your Hometown is finally here — and just hours after its release, the title is already proving to be one of the week's top sellers in the United States.
Greetings from Your Hometown Debuts High
Greetings from Your Hometown arrives as one of the biggest new titles this Friday, the start of a new tracking week in America. The full-length currently sits at No. 3 on the iTunes Top Albums chart in the U.S. It scores the second-highest debut of the frame behind Lost Americana by MGK (formerly Machine Gun Kelly), which opens at No. 2. The tally is still led by the KPop Demon Hunters soundtrack.
Jonas Brothers Outpace Several New Releases
Even though the Jonas Brothers land just behind MGK, the group outperforms several other high-profile arrivals and a handful of older titles that are experiencing a sales surge. Eight of the albums inside the iTunes Top Albums list's top 10 weren't there just hours earlier, and that roundup includes new drops from JID, Bailey Zimmerman, Gunna, Halestorm, and The Black Keys. Van Halen's Balance is also enjoying a resurgence thanks to a newly-released live track that precedes a deluxe edition that's set to be shared later this month.
Singles From Greetings from Your Hometown Climb the Charts
All four singles from Greetings from Your Hometown are moving up the iTunes Top Songs chart. 'No Time to Talk,' which dropped in June, jumps more than 50 spaces to No. 81. 'I Can't Lose,' the most recent of the bunch, reenters at No. 107. Earlier singles 'Slow Motion,' a collaboration with Marshmello, and 'Love Me to Heaven' also reappear among the country's top-selling individual tracks.
The new focus track, 'Loved You Better' with Dean Lewis, has yet to break onto the iTunes top sellers ranking in the U.S., but it's still early for the cut.
No Hot 100 Singles Yet This Era
So far, none of the singles from Greetings from Your Hometown have reached the Hot 100. Three — 'Slow Motion,' 'Love Me to Heaven,' and 'No Time to Talk' — have landed on the Pop Airplay chart, which measures radio play in the U.S. on top 40 stations, but this era has yet to produce a true hit.

Dr. Phil's Distribution Partner Sues for Fraud, Breach of Contract Over $500 Million, 10-Year Deal
The talk show host's Merit Street Media is simultaneously suing Trinity Broadcasting while facing off in bankruptcy court Trinity Broadcasting is countersuing Dr. Phil McGraw's Merit Street Media in bankruptcy court for fraud and breach of contract. In a complaint filed Tuesday in U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of Texas and obtained by TheWrap, Trinity Broadcasting, McGraw's distribution parter, alleges that he defrauded the Christian television network through a $500 million, 10-year distribution agreement—claiming he failed to deliver even a single episode of his new talk show. More from TheWrap How to Watch 'South Park' Season 27: When Is Episode 3 Streaming?

Instead, the network abused 'its power as a controlling shareholder,' the company claims, by pressuring Merit Street into costly third-party distribution deals rather than using Trinity's existing network of local TV stations. While Merit's suit alleges 'shoddy production services' from TBN, the 'most egregious' issue, it says, is that Merit Street programs could not be seen nationwide due to 'withholding distribution payments despite repeatedlyacknowledging those distribution payments were 100% TBN's sole responsibility.' 'Simply put, as a result of TBN's conduct, Merit Street has nowhere to send its broadcast signal and nowhere to air its programming,' Merit's suit alleges. Trinity tells a different story. In its countersuit, the broadcaster says McGraw himself approached the company in 2022 after seeking a replacement for CBS as both production and distribution partner for his talk show. Trinity contends McGraw made key assurances about the show's financial health and continued popularity that ultimately proved misleading. The lawsuit alleges these assurances included McGraw's proposed cost-cutting measures: a 40 percent reduction in the show's $68 million annual production budget by relocating all operations to Texas from California and eliminating unionized staff. He also asserted ownership of the series, claiming CBS had already sold out its advertising inventory, and promised to deliver new, expanded 90-minute episodes. Through his production company, Peteski, McGraw allegedly told Trinity Broadcasting that it had to sign a deal with Peteski and pay him $20 million upfront as a show of good faith—or he would instead accept CBS' competing offer of $75 million per year. Anything less, he warned, would be a 'deal killer,' according to the lawsuit. According to the complaint, under a purported $500 million, ten-year agreement, Trinity Broadcasting was to provide production and distribution services to Merit Street, while Peteski would supply new content, including 160 episodes. 'TBN is confident that the truth will set it free, and result in Peteski and McGraw being held accountable for their reprehensible conduct,' the lawsuit reads. The partnership reportedly deteriorated last year when McGraw allegedly failed to deliver the promised viewership, product integrations, and advertising revenue to Trinity Broadcasting. The network claims it had spent over $100 million by the end of June (some of which was recorded as loans to Merit Street). The lawsuit states that amount continued to climb as Trinity Broadcasting funneled up to $13 million per month into production, even though McGraw had yet to produce a single episode. When Trinity Broadcasting stopped its payments, McGraw accused the network of breaching the contract and subsequently filed for bankruptcy. Trinity Broadcasting asserts multiple claims of fraud and breach of contract, seeking a court determination of both companies' rights and obligations under the agreement. It also asks the court to rule that McGraw had agreed to transfer his library of Dr. Phil episodes. McGraw's lawsuit requests Merit Street be awarded damages on all counts, legal fees, and 'such other and further relief as the Court may deem just and proper,' though no specific amount for such was listed. McGraw's media venture was founded just last year, after his 'Dr. Phil' TV show ended with the 2022-23 season. Merit Street Media did not immediately return TheWrap's request for comment.

Aubrey Plaza describes grief as 'an ocean of awfulness' after husband's death
Actor Aubrey Plaza opened up about how she's coping with grief after the sudden death of her husband, Jeff Baena. Plaza talked about the 'daily struggles' she goes through during an appearance on the podcast 'Good Hang' — hosted by her 'Parks and Recreation' co-star Amy Poehler. 'I feel happy to be with you. I'm here and I'm functioning and I feel, you know, I feel really grateful to be moving through this world,' Plaza said. Baena, an independent filmmaker, died by suicide in January. The couple tied the knot in 2021 and collaborated on several films together, such as 'Spin Me Around,' 'The Little Hours,' and 'Life After Beth.' During the interview, Plaza compared her grieving process to the recent film 'The Gorge' starring Miles Teller and Anya Taylor-Joy. 'In the movie, there's a cliff on one side and then there's a cliff on the other side and then there's like a gorge in between and it's filled with all these monster people that are trying to get them,' she said. Plaza added: 'There's like a giant ocean of just awfulness that's right there and I can see it. And sometimes I just want to just dive into it and just be in it. And sometimes I just look at it. And sometimes I'm just trying to get away from it, but it's always there. It's just always there.' Get notified when the biggest stories in Hollywood, culture and entertainment go live.

Along with her announcement (on boyfriend Travis Kelce's podcast, no less), Swift unveiled a series of alternate album covers. Among them was a photo of the singer, dressed in a rhinestone-encrusted showgirl costume (headwear and all), a finger raised to her signature red lips. Mert and Marcus Swift wore a bejeweled bra and thong with matching hip swags, a headpiece, and feathered armbands made of French wirework and blush illusion lining. She chose a look loaded with history, originally designed by Bob Mackie and Pete Menefee for the finale of Don Arden's Jubilee!
