Though Mariah Carey‘s annual Christmas domination is to be expected, the legendary Pop icon always finds new ways to top the previous year’s wins – a feat underscored by the success of her latest festive offering ‘Mariah Carey’s Magical Christmas Special.’

Unveiled December 4, the highly teased project featured the likes of GRAMMY winners Ariana Grande, Jennifer Hudson, and Jermaine Dupri as well as appearances from Snoop Dogg, Tiffany Haddish, and more.

Their powers combined helped hoist the exclusive event to the top of the streamer’s viewership tallies around the world.

2020 has been a damn good year for 24Goldn.

Already one of the year’s breakout music stars due to his inclusion in the year’s XXL Freshman class, the true highlight undoubtedly came from landing his first Hot 100 chart-topper – ‘Mood.’

To keep that same winning energy and end the year on a high, the rapper-singer (born Golden Landis Von Jones) has finally unveiled a holiday-themed music video for his soon-to-be-next-hit ‘Coco.’

Tapping DaBaby to assist, look inside for the comical, Cole Bennett-directed action:

Meghan Trainor may have scored a top 10 hit on Billboard’s Top Holiday Albums chart with her inaugural yuletide-flavored LP, ‘A Very Trainor Christmas’ (#7 peak), but now it appears the ‘Treat Myself’ maestra is treating fans to a bevy of live performances in support of the effort with hopes of pushing it to even higher Billboard heights.

Just days after rocking ‘The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon’ with the first televised live performance of the set’s Earth, Wind & Fire-assisted single, ‘Holidays’ (click here to watch), Meghan set her sights on ‘The Late Late Show with James Corden’ and ‘The Kelly Clarkson Show.’

First taking to the former Monday night (December 14) to render a stunning rendition of album cut ‘Christmas Got Me Blue,’ Trainor took to the latter Wednesday (December 16) to crank out ‘My Kind of Present’ live.

Once poised for top 10 success on the Hot 100 thanks to a viral response to its catchy hook and the equally memorable fashion and choreography from its music video , Megan Thee Stallion‘s ‘Body’ – which premiered at #12 on the tally (as we reported here) – is now taking a back seat to the barrage of holiday-themed music bombarding the charts.

Sitting at #18 on the refreshed chart, the tune may be slowing down on the sales and streaming front but radio continues to eat the LilJuMadeDaBeat-produced bop up as evidenced by its ownership of this week’s ‘greatest airplay gainer’ title.

To keep the steam pushing ahead, Megan’s not only continuing to hit the live TV circuit in ‘Body’s support but has also unleashed a behind the scenes look at the creation of its glossy music video.

Look inside to see how the Colin Tilley-directed magic all came to be:

As Mulatto fans get acquainted with the deluxe edition of her critically acclaimed debut album, ‘Queen of Da Souf’ (click here to stream), the rising rapstress unveiled the music video to one of its most praised cuts:  ‘Sex Lies.’

The drama on  ‘Real Housewives Of Potomac’ season five reunion has gone all sorts of viral.

Viewers saw Gizelle Bryant lit up like a firework by Monique Samuels on part 1 of the show’s climax, after the latter brought a binder full of receipts to expose the alleged antics of Gizelle and her comrades.

In interviews before and following, Monique has stressed that she made the move – which saw her slam Gizelle for allegedly faking her rekindled romance with Pastor Jamal Bryant – in response to shady antics towards her family.

Indeed, she asserts that, as the reunion progresses, it will be revealed that there were two shows in motion – one in front of the camera and a muddy, messy one behind it.

Now, Pastor Jamal – who was accused of infidelity and more – has gone on live to defend himself and Gizelle.

Beyond a blanket denial, he intimates Monique’s husband – former NFL player Chris Samuels – is suffering from anger management problems and attributes this to brain disease CTE. Ouch.

More drama awaits after the jump…
