Benson Boone Rockets Up iTunes Following His Losing Night At The AMAs
Benson Boone didn't take home any trophies at the 2025 American Music Awards, despite earning several nominations in some of the biggest categories. While he might not have snagged some hardware, he has emerged as one of the event's standout success stories in the day following the showing — at least in one respect. The pop singer sees multiple titles soar on iTunes following the program. Boone was in attendance and performed his current focus track 'Mystical Magical' on the main stage, and that appearance has paid off. Boone is now just one spot away from ruling the iTunes Top Songs chart in the U.S. His single "Mystical Magical" jumped to the runner-up position the day after the event. At the moment, it's blocked only my 'Ordinary' by Alex Warren – which was also showcased during the televised event – from hitting No. 1 Boone currently occupies two slots inside the top 10 on the list of the top-selling tracks on iTunes. His breakout smash "Beautiful Things," which has been selling well for more than a year now, lifts three spaces to No. 6. Although he didn't perform the tune during the ceremony, it was featured in host Jennifer Lopez's opening medley, alongside more than a dozen other tracks. Two other singles from Boone's upcoming album American Heart are also performing incredibly well on iTunes in the U.S. The third and most recent track shared from the project, "Momma Song," is present at No. 11 at the time of writing. Meanwhile, "Sorry I'm Here for Someone Else," which introduced his forthcoming second full-length, bolts several spaces and currently sits at No. 25. Boone has only released one project so far, and it's a bestseller once again on the iTunes Top Albums list following his major moment at the American Music Awards. Fireworks & Rollerblades returns to the top 10 and becomes a strong performer once more. At present, it appears at No. 9, lifting more than 10 spaces from where it sat just a short time ago, before fans began buying it in droves once more.

Benson Boone Backflips Over ‘Mystical Magical' at the 2025 American Music Awards
Benson Boone took over the stage at the 2025 American Music Awards on Monday night (May 26) to perform his new single 'Mystical Magical.' Wearing a patchwork purple suit glittering with rhinestones, the mustachioed musician kicked off his number by crooning, 'There's nothing colder than your shoulder/ When you're dragging me along like you do, like you do/ And then you switch up with no warnin'/ And you kiss me like you want it/ How rude, how rude.'

The gravity-defying move also happened to land him right in the front row, where he flirted with Nikki Glaser and Heidi Klum as he sang, 'I know you'll come around to me eventually/ If you sit back, relax and join my company/ Oh, baby, trust me.' The coy moment amusingly continued the singer's recent history of awards show bits with the pair, who helped with the mid-performance reveal of his viral blue jumpsuit at the 2025 Grammys back in February. 'Mystical Magical' serves as the second single off Boone's upcoming sophomore album, American Heart, which will drop June 20 via Night Street and Warner Records. The LP also contains lead single 'Sorry I'm Here for Someone Else' and the newly released 'Momma Song.' During the telecast, Boone was up for his very first American Music Award for new artist of the year — a trophy that ultimately went to fellow pop sensation Gracie Abrams in a crowded field that also included Chappell Roan, Shaboozey, Teddy Swims and Tommy Richman. The American Music Awards are produced by Dick Clark Productions, which is owned by Penske Media Eldridge, a joint venture between Eldridge Industries and Billboard parent company Penske Media.

This is Boone's first time at the AMAs, with the musician up for five awards, including New Artist of the Year and Favorite Male Pop Artist. His breakthrough hit 'Beautiful Things' was also nominated for Song of the Year, Favorite Music Video, and Favorite Pop Song. As for 'Mystical Magical,' Boone released the song last month after debuting it at Coachella. It's slated to appear on his upcoming album, American Heart, which is arriving June 20. Before releasing 'Mystical Magical,' Boone teased the album with 'Sorry I'm Here for Someone Else,' while more recently he dropped the soulful tribute, 'Momma Song.' In a recent Rolling Stone cover story, Boone spoke about American Heart, describing the album as 'very Bruce Springsteen, Americana, like a little more of a retro vibe.' While he admitted he's not sure the album has another hit as massive as 'Beautiful Things,' he also said achieving that wasn't his top priority as an artist. 'It all started with me believing in the song 'Beautiful Things,'' he said. 'Now, I have a whole album just about ready to go — and I've never believed so much in a body of work.' Boone will hit the road later this summer in support of American Heart as well. The trek kicks off Aug. 22 at the Xcel Energy Center in St. Paul, Minnesota and wraps with a three-night stand in Salt Lake City, Oct. 8, 9, and 11.

Benson Boone Rocks Bold Purple Patterned Suit for His 'Mystical Magical' 2025 AMAs Performance
Benson Boone performed his hit song "Mystical Magical" at the 2025 AMAs on May 26 For his performance, he rocked a purple patterned suit while he flipped around the stage Boone has become known for his bold fashion choicesBenson Boone was red hot at the 2025 American Music Awards. The pop star, 22, performed his single "Mystical Magical" off of his upcoming album American Heart in yet another bold look on May 26. Boone wore a purple patterned suit for his performance, consisting of a cropped jacket and flared pants. The jacket was worn over a white top, and the pants were topped with a white belt. The outfit was complete with bright white boots and David Yurman jewelry. Boone is up for five awards — including New Artist of the Year, Favorite Male Pop Artist, as well as Song of the Year, Favorite Music Video and Favorite Pop Song for his hit 'Beautiful Things.' The star's AMA nominations are part of his breakout year. After releasing "Beautiful Things" in January 2024, Boone released his debut album Rollerblades & Fireworks that April. The album's success propelled Boone to new heights, including a Grammy nomination and a slate of high-level performances. He opened for Taylor Swift during the Eras Tour in London last June and performed at Coachella in April. Boone is one of six performers across a variety of genres to perform at the show. Also gracing the AMAs stage are Blake Shelton, Gwen Stefani, Gloria Estefan, Lainey Wilson and Reneé Rapp. Boone has quickly made a name for himself with his distinctive personal style. For his performance at the Grammys, where he was nominated for best new artist, Heidi Klum and Nikki Glaser ripped off his suit to reveal a sparkly ab-baring jumpsuit. The look was so noteworthy that Mark Zuckerberg borrowed the jumpsuit to surprise his wife, Priscilla Chan, with his own "Beautiful Things" performance at her 40th birthday party. Zuckerberg also referenced another viral moment in Boone's performance. During his medley, Boone pulled on the crotch of his skin-tight costume. He later quipped on Instagram, "Sorry for adjusting my jumpsuit so aggressively on stage tonight that thing was aggressively restricting in certain areas." Zuckerberg seemed to agree. Alongside a video of him in costume, he joked, "Ok I get it ... it's pretty snug." is now available in the Apple App Store!

BottleRock 2025: Benson Boone serves up Moonbeam ice cream inspired by new single
Benson Boone's first backflip of BottleRock Napa Valley didn't take place during his festival set. Nor did it occur in a flashy jumpsuit. Instead, the pop singer, simply donning jeans and a T-shirt, performed his signature move at the closing of his debut on BottleRock's Williams Sonoma Culinary Stage on Saturday, May 24. Boone joined Green Day drummer Tré Cool and 'Righteous Gemstones' star Adam Devine, who constructed massive seafood rolls, to dish up Moonbeam ice cream. The dessert is a nod to his latest single, 'Mystical Magical.' View this post on Instagram A post shared by Benson Boone (@bensonboone) The single, released just last month off his forthcoming album, 'American Heart' (due out June 20), features Boone singing, 'Nothing else will feel right, you can feel like / Moonbeam ice cream, taking off your blue jeans / Dancing at the movies, 'cause it feels so / Mystical, magical.' It's unclear where Boone got the idea for Moonbeam ice cream, but the day before the song dropped, he teased the release on Instagram with a photo of him holding a purple pint of ice cream labeled 'Benny's Moonbeam Ice Cream.' Moonbeam ice cream then started trending on social media with fans and ice cream shops releasing their interpretations of the icy treat. Most feature unconventional combinations of ingredients for a concoction that feels — you guessed it — magical and mystical. Some iterations contain glitter, bright pastel colors and swirls, but Boone brought his original recipe to BottleRock — which he admitted was his first-ever time making it from scratch.
