The Yours, C tour marks Cabello's first as a solo artist, with her previous performances in the country as part of Taylor Swift's Reputation tour. Since then, she's continued to evolve as a solo artist with hit singles like 'Bam Bam' and her genre-blurring fourth studio album C,XOXO, which blends pop, trap, reggaeton and punk.
Following a string of memorable performances at major international festivals last summer, including Glastonbury Festival (UK), Rock in Rio Lisbon (Portugal), and Tinderbox Festival (Denmark), Camila will kick off the Yours, C tour in Marbella, Spain, before hitting Australia.
Speaking about the tour in February, Cabello wrote on Instagram: 'I have been dying to tell you this. You have been so patient, and now it's finally happening. I haven't seen you guys on tour in so long, I wanted it to be a love letter to you guys for the summer. For the summer I'm yours.'
At the BAFTAs in London in February, the 'Havana' singer dropped a hint on the red carpet that she would be heading Down Under as part of the tour.
'I'm actually going on tour this summer, for the first time in a very long time, so I'm gonna be on tour all over Europe.' She added, 'I'll be playing some festivals, but a lot of headline shows. I'm gonna be in London July 8th, so I'm excited about that.'
Her latest singles 'I Luv It' and 'He Knows' have been making waves online and teasing a bold new era for the former Fifth Harmony star.

Taylor Swift's ‘Reputation' Reenters Top 5 of Billboard Album Chart After She Buys Rights to Original Albums
To listen to 'Reputation' or not to listen to 'Reputation'? For years, that has been the question for Taylor Swift fans, who have largely considered that album one of their top favorites yet felt conflicted about consuming it, since it remained one of the records that she had not yet re-recorded after her contentious split with her original label and the succession of companies that purchased her catalog. But that moral dilemma has passed, with Swift buying full rights to her first six albums and in effect issuing a full pass for everyone to guiltlessly enjoy them again. Swifties responded to that go-ahead by streaming 'Reputation' en masse in the week that followed in the announcement. The new Billboard 200 chart sees the album returning to the upper reaches of the chart, landing at No. 5 with 42,000 album-equivalent units. More from Variety Miley Cyrus Pressured to Sing at 'Something Beautiful' Premiere By Disgruntled Fans Who 'Thought This Was a Concert': 'We Paid $800' Miley Cyrus Says She 'Wasn't Allowed' to Perform 'Hannah Montana' Songs After She 'Left Disney': 'Not Like I Wanted To' Why 'Somebody Somewhere' Star Bridget Everett Insisted Miley Cyrus' 'The Climb' Be Sam's Defining Anthem: It's the Song 'That Matters Most' According to Luminate's data tracking, as reported by Billboard, album sales for 'Reputation' were up 1,184% for the tracking week. Most of those were digital sales, since there weren't many physical LPs or CDs still sitting in stores when Swift made her surprise announcement. The bigger means of consumption was through streaming, which was up 125%, to 34.75 million on-demand streams. I If that streaming increase isn't that dramatic at 'only' 125%, it's worth noting that streams for 'Reputation' had already been high leading into this tracking week. Less ethically conflicted fans had already been streaming the album in advance of what turned out to be a false expectation that Swift was about to announce a 'Reputation (Taylor's Version)' re-recording over Memorial Day weekend, instead of the much bigger revelation she had for them the following Friday. If Swift did have a lot of vinyl copies of 'Reputation' in the marketplace, the sky might have been the limit, given her fans' proven penchant for LPs. Presumably, a vinyl reissue will come along at some point in the distant future and result in huge sales. When 'Reputation' does have new physical editions, they will be without the Big Machine logo that appears on all the copies currently out. Digital services, meanwhile, are still in the process of changing the official record company credits for the original six albums she purchased from Shamrock Holdings last month. The newly revised credits do or will say simply 'Copyright Taylor Swift,' even though Spotify, Apple and other services have been slow in completely getting rid of either 'Apollo A-1LLC,' which was the unwieldy 'label' name assigned to her old recordings by Shamrock, or 'Big Machine Label Group.' Many of Swift's other albums have already been lodged in the Billboard 200 and are expected to see quite a boost when the full chart is published Monday; Sunday's reveal by Luminate and Billboard only covers the top 10. While Swift's big leap represents the biggest headline, there were two debuting albums that pulled into the chart's top 5 just ahead of her. The K-pop group Seventeen bowed at No. 2 with 48,500 equivalent album units for 'Seventeen 5th Album Happy Burstday.' That's a slight uptick from the group's previous full-length album, 'Face the Sun,' which debuted with 44,000 units in 2022. Miley Cyrus' 'Something Beautiful' debuted with disappointing numbers, coming in at No. 4, with 44,000 units. That was well below half the numbers registered for her previous album, 'Endless Summer Vacation,' which included the smash single 'Flowers'; it bowed with 119,000 units in 2023. Cyrus will next be seen on the big screen with a film version of the album. The music-video compendium, which just premiered at the Tribeca Film Festival, will come out in Imax theaters for one night only in the U.S. on June 12. At the very top of the Billboard 200, things were unchanged, with Morgan Wallen's 'I'm the Problem' making it a third week in a row in the No. 1 spot. The country superstar's latest smash effort collected another 246,000 album-equivalent units, down just 14% from week two. According to Luminate, that's the biggest third week for an album in more than a year — since Taylor Swift's 'The Tortured Poets Department,' in fact (which had 282,000 units in week 3). Landing between Seventeen and Cyrus at No. 3 was SZA's 'SOS,' still riding high on the strength of a deluxe edition and a massive hit collaboration with Kendrick Lamar. In Nos. 6-10 are Wallen's previous album, 'One Thing at a Time,' followed by efforts by Lamar, Sabrina Carpenter, the team of Partynextdoor and Drake, and Bad Bunny.

8 Best Moments From Olivia Rodrigo's Headlining Gov Ball 2025 Set: ‘I Want Them to Hear Us in F—king Manhattan'
Olivia Rodrigo is a machine. More from Billboard Thousands Fill Nation's Capital for WorldPride Parade With Reneé Rapp, Laverne Cox, Gay Men's Chorus & More Miley Cyrus Says Disney Stopped Her from Singing 'Hannah Montana' Songs After Series Ended: 'Not Like I Wanted to' Rod Stewart Cancels Additional U.S. Tour Dates Due to Illness: 'I'm Devastated' While most artists would opt to take a break after touring an album around the world for over a year, Rodrigo wasn't quite done after wrapping her GUTS tour last fall. In March, she took the stage at Lollapalooza Chilé — her first of a whopping 18 headlining festival sets she booked for 2025. A handful of Latin America gigs later, Rodrigo made her way back to the States for the second day of Governors Ball on Saturday (June 7) night. Her first appearance at the New York City festival unfortunately didn't come without obstacles — particularly for fans. Due to inclement weather, (heavy rain and lightning were forecasted for a few hours during the day), festival organizers announced that doors would be pushed from 11:45 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., leaving dozens of fans who arrived bright and early for a prime barricade spot to wait outside the gates even longer. When doors finally did open, a handful of afternoon sets were cut, while others were shortened and pushed. Rodrigo's main stage set moved from 8:30 p.m. to 9:25 p.m., immediately following Feid, who performed during her original set time on the nearby Kiehl's stage. When she finally hit the stage dressed in a sparkly new red two-piece set, Rodrigo controlled the crowd with a rock 'n' roll prowess we haven't seen since artists like Avril Lavigne and Gwen Stefani toured in the early aughts. She effortlessly blended her pop-rock bangers with her somber ballads for nearly an hour and a half — keeping the crowd of all ages captivated whether she was strumming her guitar, playing the piano or dancing and jumping all over the stage. The weather delays may have been rough, but they didn't stop Rodrigo from delivering a set to remember. Here are the 8 best moments from her headlining set below. About an hour after The Go-Go's 'We Got the Beat' blasted through the mainstage speakers as part of Rodrigo's pre-show playlist, who would've guessed that another 1980s classic would make its way onto her setlist… and with an IRL surprise. Following a moving performance of 'favorite crime,' a starstruck Rodrigo introduced rock legend David Byrne for a duet rendition of Talking Heads' 'Burning Down the House.' Rodrigo and the now 73-year-old rocker, wearing a white tee and red overalls (which perfectly matched Rodrigo's two-piece set), flawlessly switched off lines of the 1983 smash and happily danced around the stage. Throughout the performance, Rodrigo even took part in some of Byrne's signature choreo. After kicking off the final set of the night with her GUTS deluxe single 'obsessed' followed by fan-favorite 'ballad of a homeschool girl,' Rodrigo slowed it down with what could only be described as a holy trinity of back-to-back ballads. Sitting at a grand piano, 'Vampire' was the perfect way for Rodrigo to tee up the trio of slower songs. By the time its climactic bridge hit, the crowd's vocal cords were warmed up for what was to come: the song that started it all and her first Billboard Hot 100 No. 1 'drivers license' (Rodrigo said that she thinks 'of my life in before and after this song'). For the final song in this little trio, she went with 'traitor' a clear fan-favorite from her debut album considering that the crowd was just as loud, if not louder, than they were just one song before. 'I wrote this song when I was falling in love with this boy,' Rodrigo cheekily shared with the crowd before going into 'so american,' a GUTS (spilled) track that fans believe was written as a love letter to her boyfriend, English actor Louis Partridge. 'Maybe you'll understand this feeling when you're first falling in love with someone, and everything you do, you just think of them,' she continued. 'When I wrote this song, I was driving in the car, thinking of this person, and I started humming this chorus, and it turned into this song.' We'll take the Louvia crumbs. Other than a shortened setlist, there were a few key differences between Rodrigo's festival set and last year's GUTS tour. For one, the on-screen visuals are slightly different, although they definitely still fit within the GUTS world. Her background dancers were also cut from this gig, giving the spotlight to just Rodrigo and her all-female band. She performed a stripped-back rendition of 'pretty isn't pretty' with just her strumming her acoustic guitar, and later equipped herself with just an electric guitar for a solo performance of her heart-wrenching SOUR ballad, 'enough for you.' Some encores don't give what they need to give, but Rodrigo's was not that. It was a couple minutes after 10:30 p.m. when she wrapped up her performance of 'deja vu' — which seemed to be the final song of the night after Rodrigo exited the stage. That was until a stunning visual of her gracefully sitting in a white slip dress popped up across the big screen, which was soon engulfed in digital flames. By 10:37 p.m., Rodrigo re-emerged, equipped with a red megaphone adorning her first and only outfit change of the night: a red and white cropped baseball tee that read 'New York City Never Looked So Blue.' The songs in the encore were just as satisfying: 'brutal,' 'all-american b—h,' 'good 4 u' and 'get him back!' With him taking the stage just an hour before her, Rodrigo took a minute out of her set to give a shoutout to her longtime friend and fellow artist, Conan Gray. 'I love him so much, he's my best friend,' she excitedly told the crowd ahead of singing 'enough for you' (a SOUR track she revealed is her 'favorite song she's ever written'). Gray delivered a mainstage set complete with props and a costume to match the sailor aesthetic of his upcoming album Wishbone, for which he just released its first single, 'This Song.' 'Have you listened to his new song yet?' Rodrigo asked the crowd, which immediately erupted in screams. 'That's the right answer. I love him so much and I love playing music.' It became a GUTS tour tradition for Rodrigo to lead fans in a primal scream fest during her performance of 'all-american b—h' — and that tradition continued for her Gov Ball set's penultimate song. 'There is so much s—t to be pissed off about in the world today,' she said before getting into the song's bridge. 'When I tell you 'go,' I want you to scream as loud as you can and let it all out. Okay? I want them to hear us in f—ing Manhattan.' (The festival takes place outside the city in Queens, N.Y.). Probably channeling their emotions that came with the delay, downpour, mud and muggy weather that came earlier in the day, the crowd certainly followed directions. When Rodrigo tee'd up the screams with the first line of the bridge and and said 'go,' the stage went completely black — and for a good 10 seconds, all that could be heard were the most guttural of screams. Not that the rest of the show wasn't, but this was a true moment of group catharsis. 'obsessed' 'ballad of a homeschooled girl' 'vampire' 'drivers license' 'traitor' 'bad idea right' 'love is embarrassing' 'pretty isn't pretty' 'happier' 'enough for you' 'so american' 'jealousy, jealousy' 'favorite crime' 'Burning Down the House' (with David Byrne) 'deja vu' Encore 'brutal' 'all american b—h' 'good 4 u' 'get him back!'

Chartbreaker: Mariah the Scientist on Her Biggest Hit's ‘Casual' Start & Using Her Platform to ‘Help People Feel Included'
True to her name, Mariah the Scientist's songs are often the result of several months, and sometimes years, spent combining different elements of choruses and verses until finding the right mixture. But when it came time for the 27-year-old to unveil her latest single, the sultry 'Burning Blue,' the R&B singer-songwriter was at a crossroads. So, she experimented with her promotional strategy, too — and achieved the desired momentum. 'Mariah felt she was in a space between treating [music] like a hobby and this being her career,' recalls Morgan Buckles, the artist's sister and manager. And so, they crafted a curated, monthlong rollout — filled with snippets, TikTok posts encouraging fan interaction and various live performances — that helped the song go viral even before its early May arrival. Upon its release, Mariah the Scientist scored her first solo Billboard Hot 100 entry and breakthrough hit. More from Billboard Young Thug Recalls Getting 'Stood Up' By Mariah The Scientist on Their First Date Chappell Roan Did the Viral 'Apple' Dance During Charli xcx's Primavera Sound Set: 'Love You B-ch!' 50 Years Ago, Elton John Became First Artist to Enter Billboard 200 at No. 1 - Just How 'Fantastic' Was the Feat? Mariah Amani Buckles grew up in Atlanta, singing from an early age. She attended St. John's University in New York and studied biology, but ultimately dropped out to pursue music. Her self-released debut EP, To Die For, arrived in 2018, after which she signed to RCA Records and Tory Lanez's One Umbrella label. She stayed in those deals until 2022 — releasing albums Master and Ry Ry World in 2019 and 2021, respectively — before leaving to continue as an independent artist. 'Over time, you start realizing [people] want you to change things,' Mariah says of her start in the industry. 'Everybody wants to control your art. I don't want to argue with you about what I want, because if we don't want the same things, I'll just go find somebody who does.' In 2023, after six months as an independent artist, Mariah signed a joint venture deal with Epic Records and released her third album, To Be Eaten Alive, which became her first to reach the Billboard 200. She then made two Hot 100 appearances as a featured artist in early 2024, on 'IDGAF' with Tee Grizzley and Chris Brown and 'Dark Days' with 21 Savage. 'Burning Blue' marks Mariah's first release of 2025 — and first new music since boyfriend Young Thug's release from jail following his bombshell YSL RICO trial. The song takes inspiration from Purple Rain-era Prince balladry with booming drums and warbling bass — and Mariah admits that the Jetski Purp-produced beat on YouTube (originally titled 'Blue Flame') likely influenced some lyrics, too. She initially recorded part of the track over an unofficial MP3 rip, but after Purp caught wind of it and learned his girlfriend was a fan, he gave Mariah the beat. Mariah then looped in Nineteen85 (Drake, Nicki Minaj, Khalid) to flesh out the production. 'I [recorded the first part of 'Burning Blue'] in the first room I recorded in when I first started making music in Atlanta,' Mariah says. 'I don't want to say it was a throwaway, but it was casual. I wrote some of it, and then I put it to the side.' Once Epic A&R executive Jennifer Raymond heard the in-progress track, she insisted on its completion enough that Mariah and her collaborators convened in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico, in February to finish the song. By that point, they sensed something special. Mariah shared a low-quality snippet on Instagram, but Morgan — who joined as a tour manager in 2022 — knew a more polished presentation was needed to reach its full potential. Morgan eyed Billboard's Women in Music event in late March as the launchpad for the 'Burning Blue' campaign. Though Mariah wasn't performing or presenting at the event, Morgan wanted to take advantage of her already being in glam to shoot a flashier teaser than Mariah's initial IG story, which didn't even show her face. The two decided on a behind-the-scenes, pre-red carpet clip soundtracked by a studio-quality snippet of 'Burning Blue.' Posted on April 1, that clip showcased its downtempo chorus and Mariah's silky vocal and has since amassed more than two million views, with designer Jean Paul Gaultier's official TikTok account sharing the video to its feed. Ten days later, Morgan advised Mariah to share another TikTok, this time with an explicit call to action encouraging fans to use the song in their own posts and teasing that she 'might have a surprise' for fans with enough interaction. Mariah then debuted the song live on April 19 during a set at Howard University — a smart exclusive for her core audience — as anticipation for the song continued to build. Two weeks later, 'Burning Blue' hit digital service providers on May 2, further fueled by a Claire Bishara-helmed video on May 8 that has over 7 million YouTube views. 'We're at the point where opportunity meets preparation,' Morgan reflects of the concerted but not overbearing promotional approach. '[To Be Eaten Alive] happened so fast, I didn't even know what 'working' a project meant. This time, I studied other artists' rollouts to figure out how to make this campaign personal to her.' 'Burning Blue' debuted at No. 25 on the Billboard Hot 100 dated May 17, marking Mariah's first time in the top 40. Following its TikTok-fueled debut, the song has shown legs at radio too, entering Rhythmic Airplay, R&B/Hip-Hop Airplay and Mainstream R&B/Hip-Hop Airplay — to which Morgan credits Epic's radio team, spearheaded by Traci Adams and Dontay Thompson. '[The song] ended up going to radio a week earlier [than scheduled] because Dontay was like, 'If y'all like this song so much, then play it!,' and they did,' Morgan jokes. With 'Burning Blue' proving to be a robust start to an exciting new chapter, Mariah has a bona fide hit to start the summer as she prepares to unleash her new project, due before the fall. She recently performed the track on Jimmy Kimmel Live! and will have the opportunity to fan the song's flames in front of festival audiences including Governors Ball in June and Lollapalooza in August. But as her following continues to heat up, Mariah's mindset is as cool as ever. 'I'll take what I can get,' Mariah says. 'As long as I can use my platform to help people feel included or understood, I'm good.' A version of this story appears in the June 7, 2025, issue of Billboard.
