From headline-grabbing commentary on his infamous sex tape with Kim Kardashian to discussion about Kanye West, Diddy and Cassie (as we reported here), Floyd Mayweather, on-and-off relationship with soon-to-be ex-wife Princess Love, and so much more, Ray J‘s recent press tour has nothing short of jaw-dropping quotes (to say the least).

Among the myriad of hot topics broached was the standout of his current relationship with his legendary sister Brandy.

The two have historically been very close, but – as of late – fans of both have noticed a distance, one that Ray brazenly admitted was due to some of his actions over the last couple of years.

Despite his shortcomings, the singer-actor-businessman is not only hoping for forgiveness but is also (once again) petitioning the diva and her ‘Boy is Mine‘ co-star and fellow R&B icon Monica to embark on a joint world tour.

Hop inside to hear his latest version of the request.

Ariana Grande may have seen her ‘Eternal Sunshine‘ single ‘The Boy is Mine‘ bounce to a #16 peak on the Hot 100 on hype alone, but the official promo push set to support the Max Martin-produced cut sees it poised to reach even higher heights on the hitlist.

Tapped to be the album’s follow-up single behind the chart-topping ‘Yes, And?‘ and ‘We Can’t Be Friends,’ ‘Boy’ – which is a “reimagining” of the historic 1998 Brandy and Monica duet of the same name – got its first taste of the live treatment aboard the Thursday (June 6) episode of ‘The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon.’

Marking her 11th guest appearance on ‘Fallon’ (as well as her first late-night interview since 2021), hop inside to see how she fared.

Billie Eilish plays double duty as director and star of the music video for her latest ‘Hit Me Hard and Soft‘ single ‘CHIHIRO.’

Starring Nat Wolff, the visual – which serves as the follow-up to the top 10 hit ‘Lunch‘ – sees her stumble through a dream as she envisions dark hallways and closing doors that symbolize the darkest corners of her mind.

“Open up the door, can you open up the door? / I know you said before you can’t cope with any more / You told me it was war, said you’d show me what’s in store / I hope it’s not for sure, can you open up the door?,” she croons in the artsy clip.

Having already peaked at #12 on the Hot 100, is the ‘CHIHIRO’ music video just what’s needed to catapult the tune into the top 10?
