Miley Cyrus Charts A Brand New Rock Hit — And It's Not Her Latest Single
Miley Cyrus scores two new hits this week as 'End of the World' debuts on seven charts and ... More 'Something Beautiful' lands on Hot Rock & Alternative Songs list. LOS ANGELES, CA – DECEMBER 31st: In this image released on December 31, Miley Cyrus performs at Dick Clark's New Year's Rockin' Eve with Ryan Seacrest 2021 broadcast on December 31, 2020 and January 1, 2021. (Photo by Alberto E. Rodriguez/Getty Images for dick clark productions) Miley Cyrus is back on the Billboard charts this week as her latest era officially begins. Most fans are focused on her brand new single, 'End of the World,' which is leading the charge when it comes to her upcoming full-length Something Beautiful. But while that tune begins its journey, another cut from the same project has quietly appeared on a ranking Cyrus isn't quite as familiar with, showing that her listeners are interested in everything she's putting out. Cyrus' 'Something Beautiful' appears on Billboard's Hot Rock & Alternative Songs chart for the first time this week. The ranking blends all major forms of consumption — sales, streams, and radio airplay — to show which tracks in the rock and alternative spheres are performing best in the U.S. The cut sneaks onto the tally at No. 47, just barely making the 50-position list. 'Something Beautiful' brings Cyrus back to the Hot Rock & Alternative Songs ranking for the first time in nearly three years. The last time she landed on the tally was in July 2021, when she joined a stacked list of collaborators for a unique cover of Metallica's 'Nothing Else Matters.' That rendition saw Cyrus teaming up with Elton John, Yo-Yo Ma, Watt, Robert Trujillo, and Chad Smith. Together, they pushed the classic into the top 40, as it peaked at No. 36. Until now, that had been the lowest-charting entry of her career on this particular list — but 'Something Beautiful' now claims that title with its more modest No. 47 starting position. Throughout the years, Cyrus has placed a total of nine tracks on the Hot Rock & Alternative Songs chart. Out of those, only one has managed to break into the top 10. That honor belongs to 'Plastic Hearts,' the title track from her 2020 rock-leaning release. It climbed as high as No. 8 back in December 2020 and still stands as her longest-charting title on the list, racking up 20 weeks before dropping off. 'Something Beautiful' is one of several cuts released from Cyrus's upcoming Something Beautiful before she even officially launched the era with its lead single. A mostly spoken prelude was also shared in advance, though that track hasn't charted yet. 'End of the World,' the official lead single, is also making its presence felt now that it's finished its initial full tracking week. It debuts on seven different Billboard tallies this frame, including a somewhat dull No. 52 bow on the Hot 100. The song performs much better on more focused charts, landing higher on all three of the company's pop radio lists as well as the Digital Song Sales ranking.

Watch the 'American Idol' Platinum Ticket Audition That Lionel Richie Calls 'Divine Guidance'
It was revealed back on New Year's Eve during ABC's New Year's Rockin' Eve broadcast that one of this season's three American Idol Platinum ticket winners for 2025 was Filo Ebid, when Ryan Seacrest and Carrie Underwood upgraded his ticket from Golden to Platinum. Now American Idol is sharing the audition that earned the 23-year-old Egyptian-born singer the honor. 🎬 🎬 Filo, who is a graduate of the Conservatory of Music at the University of the Pacific, performed Otis Redding's 'Try a Little Tenderness,' while his mother Haidi, who wants him to get a medical degree even if he wins Idol, stood outside with Ryan crying for happiness. Filo began his music career playing Shrek in his eighth-grade musical. He's come a long way since. 'Yes, indeed. We've been waiting for you. What took you so long to get here,' Lionel asked Filo. 'That was amazing.' 'Born to sing,' Luke said, and was interrupted by Carrie, saying, 'You ain't going to be no doctor. Tell mama she was wrong…no don't say that. She's just looking out for you. Three notes in, in my brain, I just thought 'Holy, Shrek,' just wow! That was really fantastic.' Then Luke picked up what he was trying to say earlier, 'You're definitely going to go far in this, in my opinion. Definitely Top 20. Maybe Top 10. It's perfect in my opinion.' Related: And Lionel added, 'I am just so happy that the universe has directed you to the three of us at American Idol. That's divine guidance right there.' 'I am so excited for you,' Carrie said, and then cast her vote. 'It's a yes from me.' Both Luke and Lionel also chimed in with yeses. 'You deserved it, you work very, very hard,' Haidi told her son when they were reunited. 'We never, never expect this, so thank God for this gift.' Related: As mentioned, that audition was filmed prior to New Year's Eve but we also have a look at the New Year's Rockin' Eve segment where Ryan and Carrie upgraded Filo from Gold to Platinum. 'Every season, the judges get to do something special for three outstanding hopefuls who give spectacular auditions. The judges can upgrade a Golden Ticket to a coveted Platinum Ticket, which allows that person to skip the first week of Hollywood Week.' Then Carrie made the presentation to Filo, who was shocked. "Oh, my God! What?" Filo exclaimed. "What just happened? This is insane!" American Idol airs Sunday nights at 8 p.m. ET/PT on ABC. Streams next day on Hulu. Next,

4 years after ‘public ridicule,' Christian singer Lauren Daigle is embracing the Super Bowl spotlight
A little over four years ago, Lauren Daigle went home to Lafayette, Louisiana, crawled into her parents' bed and pulled the covers over her head. As the Christian singer explained during a recent podcast appearance, that was her response to a letter from New Orleans Mayor LaToya Cantrell that called for her to be removed from the 'Dick Clark's New Year's Rockin' Eve' lineup in 2020 because of her participation in a rally that protested COVID-19 restrictions placed on houses of worship. 'She cannot be allowed to represent New Orleans,' Cantrell wrote in the letter criticizing Daigle for singing at the controversial rally, according to Religion News Service. Now, in somewhat of a full-circle moment, Daigle is representing New Orleans on one of the largest stages: the Super Bowl. On Sunday, the 'You Say' singer will perform 'America the Beautiful' ahead of the game between the Kansas City Chiefs and Philadelphia Eagles, which takes place at New Orleans' Superdome. 'To get this moment years later, I would say for anybody watching that has had their reputations smeared in any sort of way and they are just waiting for the moment of vindication, sometimes it only takes five years,' Daigle told the 'Arroyo Grande' podcast, per Fox News. Here's a look at how Daigle landed at the Super Bowl — and what's next in the two-time Grammy winner's career. As Daigle prepares to sing at the Super Bowl, she's been reflecting on the controversy that hit her career roughly nine months into the pandemic. She has previously said she was not formally a part of the 'Let Us Worship' rally held by her friend, Christian singer and worship leader Sean Feucht. She had been riding her bike nearby and was then invited to sing, the Christian Post reported at the time. About a month later, Daigle was reportedly in talks to perform at 'Dick Clark's Rockin' New Year's Eve' — though she has said she was never officially confirmed, as the Deseret News reported — when the letter from Cantrell criticized her involvement in the rally and called for her to be removed as a performer. 'There's no amount of public ridicule that is fun,' Daigle told the 'Arroyo Grande' podcast, per Fox News. Now, a few years after the controversy, Daigle and other Louisiana natives are bringing music with some New Orleans flair to the Super Bowl. The game comes a little over a month after a man intentionally drove a truck into a crowd in New Orleans on New Year's Day, killing at least 14 people and injuring more than 30, as the Deseret News reported. 'It's going to be a beautiful opportunity for us to showcase what New Orleans represents, and the culture, and the beauty of unity in music,' Daigle told 'New Orleans has seen some trying times recently. To be able to offer a sound of hope for people in this city, to sing out over the city and from the city into the rest of the world, is going to be one of my favorite things, maybe ever.' Daigle's invitation to the Super Bowl came through her friend and fellow musician, jazz powerhouse Trombone Shorty. When Trombone Shorty initially received an invitation to play and sing 'America the Beautiful' at the Super Bowl, his response was that he'd play it — but he had someone else in mind to sing it, Daigle told 'He had a vision, so he invited me. I was shocked,' the singer told 'I said, 'Do you understand the opportunity you gave me? Do you know what your generosity has given me?' That just goes to show the beauty of the music scene in New Orleans. What I love so much is that it's so communal. People are looking out for each other.' Daigle has long praised the collaborative music scene that is present throughout Louisiana. 'It's not this one-dimensional music scene,' Daigle told the Deseret News in a 2020 interview. 'I would see all these different ages and different ethnicities. Everybody was sharing the stage together, and it was this beautiful communal experience, a beautiful exchange of sounds and sentiments.' Trombone Shorty extending an invitation to her embodies the spirit of New Orleans, she said — and it's a moment she's not taking lightly. 'To sing those beautiful words about our country and to sing them for so many people who love this country and love the sport of football. ... It's going to be a blast,' Daigle told Trombone Shorty's arrangement of 'America the Beautiful' brings some Louisiana flair to the patriotic number, Daigle said on the 'Arroyo Grande' podcast. 'When we rehearsed 'America the Beautiful,' we worked on the song maybe 15 or 20 minutes, but we talked for over two hours, just hanging out in his studio,' Daigle told 'That's a good sign. That's what you want to pour into a performance like (the Super Bowl). You want the love and grit to be expressed on a stage of this caliber.' The singer, who is one of the rare contemporary Christian artists whose music has managed to achieve mainstream success, also said her faith will influence her performance. ''God shed His grace on me,' that line, it just really gripped me to the core in a way,' she told the 'Arroyo Grande' podcast, per Fox News. 'How will it cut through to this generation, the age that we are living in right now, the political climate that we're living in right now?' she continued. 'How can I use this song to cut through to people who might be jaded toward our country or might not love what we have in this country or what we've built in this country?' Seven-time Grammy winner Jon Batiste, who is also from Louisiana and was the subject of the recent documentary 'American Symphony,' will perform the national anthem at the Super Bowl, and R&B singer and New Orleans native Ledisi will perform 'Lift Every Voice and Sing.' Daigle released a self-titled album in 2023, and recently concluded a tour — which came to the Maverik Center in West Valley City, Utah, last year. She has a handful of concert dates lined up (so far) for 2025. 'I've started writing new songs,' she told 'I can definitely see having another record out in the next couple years.' While the singer said she has other passions she's interested in pursuing — including expanding her foundation, 'The Price Fund" — she has said that music will always be part of her life. 'I love so much getting to perform in front of people, getting to bring messages of hope to people, getting to see people genuinely impacted,' she previously told the Deseret News. 'That's something that I want to be a part of forever.'
