Olivia Rodrigo's Only Two Albums Are Both Bestsellers Again
A number of superstar musicians return to the charts in both the United Kingdom and United States this week, thanks in large part to the end of Record Store Day. The annual event sees many well-known and exciting indie acts drop special releases, prompting fans around the world to rush into local music shops to snap up limited-edition offerings. Due to their exclusivity and scarcity, many Record Store Day titles sell out immediately. As a result, they often appear on rankings for just one frame before vanishing, making room once again for regular performers.
That's the case this time around, and Olivia Rodrigo emerges as one of the biggest gainers on the U.K. rankings due to this shift. Both of the young singer's full-lengths usually appear on charts in most Western markets, as they continue to perform incredibly well even years after their release.
This week, Sour and Guts are both present on four different U.K. rankings. In every instance, the titles are among the bestsellers and even climb onto the most important lists.
Guts is the better seller of the two, which makes sense, as it's newer. It reenters the Official Physical Albums chart at No. 38, becoming a top 40 bestseller once again on formats like CD and vinyl. It narrowly misses that same region on the Official Albums Sales tally, where it returns at No. 41.
Sour isn't far behind its successor on either tally. It's back on the Official Physical Albums chart at No. 48 and rebounds to No. 54 on the Official Albums Sales list.
Amazingly, Sour and Guts sit side-by-side on the other two tallies on which they appear in the U.K. Both are living inside the top 40 on the Official Albums Streaming chart and the Official Albums roster, which is the nation's general consumption list. In each case, Rodrigo's collections land one right after the other, with Guts narrowly pulling ahead by just one space.
In the past, both Sour and Guts have hit No. 1 on the charts they appear on. They've become bestselling titles, incredibly strong streamers, and among the most popular albums in the country for years at a time.
Sour is the longer-charting of the two, having recently passed 200 frames on multiple rosters. It hasn't yet hit that milestone on the two sales-based tallies, but it's likely to do so in the coming months.
Guts hasn't yet had a chance to crack triple-digit frames on any ranking, but that's not due to a lack of interest. Considering how well it's still performing more than 80 weeks after release, it seems destined to reach that achievement once enough time has passed.

Jack Osbourne admitted he's ‘not close at all' with sister Aimee days before Ozzy's death
Jack Osbourne opened up about his relationship with his rarely-seen sister, Aimee, shortly before their legendary father passed away last month. Jack, 39, admitted that he and Aimee, 41, were 'not close at all' during an episode of Katie Maloney and Dayna Kathan's 'Disrespectfully' podcast released July 16. 'We don't have a great relationship. She'll be the first to tell you that,' he said one week before Ozzy's death. 'So, it's no secret.'

AARON PARFITT / BACKGRID While Jack and his other older sister, Kelly, 40, garnered fame after starring in MTV's 'The Osbournes' with parents Ozzy and Sharon, 72, Aimee chose not to participate in the show during its four-season run from 2002 to 2005. Advertisement Instead, she became an 'obscure, mysterious, moody' musician, according to her brother. 'She deemed doing a show on MTV as low-hanging fruit, and she was like, 'I'm not going to be seen riding coattails.' That's how she perceived it,' the Black Sabbath icon's son explained. 11 Jack and Aimee Osbourne during Los Angeles Fashion Week in 2004.

'So, she just dug her heels in and wanted to be relatively private and obscure.' However, Jack admitted that he 'never' asked his oldest sister if she regretted not starring in 'The Osbournes' – although he speculated she did. 'There must be a level of like, 'My life probably would have been different than what it is if I'd have done that.' I don't know. I mean, I would feel like I would have regretted it,' Jack explained during the podcast. 11 The Osbourne family at the 1997 Kerrang Awards in London, England.

'There is just not that level or kind of excitement around TV anymore like there was back then. When you had a hit TV show in the early 2000s, it was a game-changer.' Ozzy and Sharon's oldest daughter opened up about her decision not to appear in 'The Osbournes' during an interview with the NYC classic rock radio station Q104.3 back in 2020. At the time, Aimee said that she had no regrets about turning down the series. 11 Ozzy Osbourne holds a replica of his new star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame as he poses with his family during a ceremony on April 12, 2002, in Los Angeles. AP 'For me, I had grown up around having a pretty well-known dad anyway, and I always really valued my privacy within that family,' she explained. 'And for me personally, and for who I am, you know, as far as morally and also just to give myself a chance to actually develop into a human being as opposed to just being remembered for being a teenager, it didn't really line up with what I saw my future as.' 'It definitely worked great for the rest of my family,' she added. 'But for me and who I am, I just knew it was never something that I would have been able to consider realistically.' Aimee later broke cover with her siblings following the shocking death of their beloved dad, who passed away on July 22 following a lengthy battle with Parkinson's disease and other health issues.

'The love, support, and beautiful messages I've received from so many of you have truly helped carry her through the hardest moment of my life.' 'Grief is a strange thing — it sneaks up on you in waves,' Ozzy and Sharon's youngest daughter added. 'I will not be OK for a while — but knowing my family are not alone in our pain makes a difference.'

Lollapalooza 2025: What we saw — and heard — at the 4-day music festival at Grant Park
Lollapalooza 2025 is now over at Grant Park. This year's festival showcased an impressive blend of breakthrough acts and established favorites, with headliners like Olivia Rodrigo, Sabrina Carpenter and Tyler, the Creator. It was an exciting year for artists who've found their creative stride, from Grammy-nominated R&B powerhouse Durand Bernarr to genre-defying sensation Amaarae to mega breakout rapper Doechii, a hip hop superstar in the making. Here's what we saw — and heard. Day 4 opened in Grant Park under sunny skies, lower air quality alerts and a final lineup of music across the festival's seven main stages. Headliners were Sabrina Carpenter, making a day-closing stand for Lolla's strong female lineup on the T-Mobile stage, and New York rapper A$AP Rocky on the Bud Light. It's been nearly 10 years since A$AP Rocky last played Lollapalooza. Other notable artists for the day included Finneas, the singer first famous in 2016 for teaming with sister Billie Eilish; Dominic Fike; a second Lolla for the Latin and jazz-infused indie band The Marías; and two concerts by Rebecca Black, the first a DJ set on the Perry's stage. Read more here. Clear skies, lake breeze. Headliners for Lollapalooza Day 3 were more of a trio, with Australian electronic group Rüfüs Du Sol closing the day on the T-Mobile stage, K-pop girl group TWICE on the Bud Light and singer commanding his own strong following for his Saturday-capping set on the smaller Grove stage. Other artists Saturday included indie-pop singer Clairo, Young Miko, Two Friends, Marina, Doechii and JPEGMAFIA. The Chicago Youth Symphony closed the Tito's Handmade Vodka stage Saturday evening. Plus there was the surprise addition of Chance the Rapper with a 15-minute set on the Perry's stage at 5:50 p.m. Chance has a new album, 'Star Line,' due out on Aug. 15. TWICE, the first-ever K-pop girl group to anchor the festival, drew K-pop fans sporting trademark accessories inspired by their favorite idols — bright colors, fur armwarmers, hair tinsel and baseball card-sized photos of their TWICE favorites. 'You can definitely tell when someone's here for a certain singer,' said Bridget Sikorski, 20. Read more here. Friday was Olivia Rodrigo day at Lollapalooza as the festival opened for Day 2 in Chicago's lakefront Grant Park. Rodrigo is the T-Mobile mainstage headliner to close out the night, on the opposite end from metal band Korn on the Bud Light stage. There was a sea of Rodrigo's signature purple at the T-Mobile by noon on Friday. Some of her most dedicated fans, many wearing purple cowboy hats, made it a point to line up early to get the best view. Read more here. Lollapalooza opened Thursday in Grant Park for its annual four days of crowds and music, with a lineup through Sunday heavy on female artists — Olivia Rodrigo and Sabrina Carpenter are both end-of-day headliners, with Gracie Abrams and Clairo also among the early crowd favorites. Official headliners for Day 1 were Tyler, the Creator and Luke Combs, who closed out the night on the T-Mobile and Bud Light stages, respectively. Combs made Lollapalooza history as the Chicago festival's first-ever country music festival closer. At the main gates at Michigan Avenue and Ida B. Wells Drive, concertgoers got up with the sun to be first in the entrance chutes before the festival opened at 11 a.m. Siblings Jacob Fuentes and Sofia Pogue traveled from Texas; this was the first concert ever for Sofia, 13, they said. Tyler, the Creator is her favorite artist. 'I like a lot of music but I feel like I like (Tyler's) the most,' she said. Read more here. Lollapalooza can be seen as a safe haven — a place where music lovers go to catch all their favorite artists in one place. But along with that excitement comes crowds that can swell to outsized numbers for more popular artists, at a time when crowd safety has taken on a new sense of importance. Some of that awareness this summer is due to the documentary 'Trainwreck: The Astroworld Tragedy,' which was released on Netflix in June and quickly became popular. The documentary details the events leading up to the crowd crush that killed 10 people at rapper Travis Scott's Astroworld music festival in Houston in November 2021. Read more here. For the second year in a row, Lollapalooza will power its largest stage with a hybrid battery system, marking a growing trend of big-name music festivals transitioning away from diesel-based generators. When the Chicago staple introduced its hybrid battery-powered stage in 2024, it became the first major U.S. festival to power its main stage with a battery system, which supplements the stage's generators with energy stored from the electric grid. This system reduced the stage's fuel consumption by 67%, and avoided 26 metric tons of carbon emissions, according to data from festival organizers. This year's system will provide 1.5 megawatt hours of storage, the same capacity as last year. The system will power the T-Mobile stage. Read more here. What makes this year's Lollapalooza especially compelling is its focus on artists who represent the future of their respective genres. Whether it's Clairo's sophisticated, downtempo evolution on 'Charm,' innovative approach to indie rock, or The Marías' emotionally resonant breakup anthems, the festival promises to be a showcase for music that feels both contemporary and timeless. Here's our picks for the best-of-the-best. Read more here. The wave of visitors should keep most downtown hotel rooms and many restaurants filled, a much-needed boost at a time when overseas tourists seem increasingly reluctant to visit the U.S. Chicago hotel operators say it's become one of downtown's most important events, and this year may be the biggest ever. 'The Lolla lineup determines overall success,' said Nabil Moubayed, general manager of the 792-room InterContinental at 505 N. Michigan Ave. 'This year's lineup is very strong, so we are seeing exceptional demand. It's exciting for us and the market.' Read more here.
