The Billboard Global 200 and Global Excl. U.S. charts, which began in September 2020, rank songs based on streaming and sales activity culled from more than 200 territories around the world, as compiled by Luminate. The Global 200 is inclusive of worldwide data and the Global Excl. U.S. chart comprises data from territories excluding the United States.
Chart ranks are based on a weighted formula incorporating official-only streams on both subscription and ad-supported tiers of audio and video music services, as well as download sales, the latter of which reflect purchases from full-service digital music retailers from around the world, with sales from direct-to-consumer (D2C) sites excluded from the charts' calculations.
'Ordinary' leads the Global 200 with 65.9 million streams (essentially even week-over-week) and 11,000 sold (down 9%) worldwide May 2-8.
The entire Global 200's top five holds in place from a week earlier: 'Die With a Smile' at No. 2, after 18 weeks at No. 1 beginning last September (second only to the 19 weeks at No. 1 for Mariah Carey's 'All I Want for Christmas Is You' since the chart began); ROSÉ and Bruno Mars' 'APT.' at No. 3, after 12 weeks at No. 1 starting in November; Billie Eilish's 'Birds of a Feather' at No. 4, following three weeks at No. 1 last August; and Benson Boone's 'Beautiful Things' at No. 5, after it logged seven weeks on top in February-April 2024.
'Die With a Smile' adds a 17th week at No. 1 on Global Excl. U.S., with 64.8 million streams (down 3%) and 3,000 sold (down 5%) outside the U.S. The song holds the second-longest rule in the chart's archives:
19 weeks at No. 1, 'APT.,' ROSÉ & Bruno Mars (2024-25)
17 weeks, 'Die With a Smile,' Lady Gaga & Bruno Mars (2024-25)
14 weeks, 'All I Want for Christmas Is You,' Mariah Carey (2021-25)
13 weeks, 'Flowers,' Miley Cyrus (2023)
13 weeks, 'As It Was,' Harry Styles (2022)
'Ordinary' rises 3-2 for a new Global Excl. U.S. best; 'APT.' drops 2-3; JENNIE's 'like JENNIE' keeps at No. 4, after hitting No. 3; and 'Birds of a Feather' repeats at No. 5, following three weeks at No. 1 last August.
The Billboard Global 200 and Billboard Global Excl. U.S. charts (dated May 17, 2025) will update on Billboard.com tomorrow, May 13. For both charts, the top 100 titles are available to all readers on Billboard.com, while the complete 200-title rankings are visible on Billboard Pro, Billboard's subscription-based service.

Blackpink Returns to L.A. to Remind Us All Why They're the Biggest Girl Group in the World
K-pop supergroup Blackpink returned to Los Angeles over the weekend, officially kicking off the North American leg of their Deadline world tour. The four-member girl group — comprised of members Jisoo, Jennie, Rosé and Lisa — played two sold-out shows at L.A.'s SoFi Stadium on July 12 and July 13, setting a new record as the first girl group to sell out two nights at the stadium. The group's first L.A. shows in nearly two years, the two nights brought over 100,000 fans to the Inglewood-based venue, according to Live Nation. More from The Hollywood Reporter Tears, Spaceships and Nostalgia: How Backstreet Boys "Pushed the Limits" of Las Vegas' Sphere With "Mind-Boggling" Residency Launch THR's 2025 Top Music Lawyers: Nominations Are Now Open Kanye "Ye" West Struggles Through Chaotic, Rain-Soaked Shanghai Concert The L.A. shows were shrewdly tied to Blackpink's first group release in nearly three years with the undeniably catchy and energetic single, 'Jump,' which was released Friday (July 11). The track, which remains in the top spot of Spotify's Daily Top Songs Global Chart, broke YouTube's record for the most-viewed video globally in a single day with 26 million views, according to a release. Night two of the girl group's L.A. run was full of energy, excitement and even a crowd-pleasing surprise in the form of a special guest. Here are some of the highlights from Blackpink's Deadline world tour in L.A. In the time since the chart-topping group last visited L.A., Blackpink has ventured off as individuals, each enjoying increasingly fruitful solo careers. In December 2023, it was announced that the group had renewed their exclusive contracts for group activities with YG Entertainment; however, it was later announced that all four members decided to part ways with the label for solo activities. Jennie signed with Columbia Records through a partnership with her record label and entertainment company Oddatelier; Lisa and her entertainment company LLOUD signed a partnership deal with RCA Records; Rosé signed a global solo deal with Atlantic Records; while Jisoo signed a global deal with Warner Records. With that in mind, it was hard to envision what a setlist might look like, but Blackpink managed to strike an impressive balance of classic songs, new solo works and a guiding act-structure to the show. The group kicked off the show with perhaps the most quintessential Blackpink track, 'Kill This Love,' later playing other signature songs such as 'DDU-DU DDU-DU,' 'Lovesick Girls,' 'Forever Young' and 'How You Like That.' They also performed their debut songs ('Boombayah' and 'Whistle'), songs from their most recent full release ('Pink Venom' and 'Shut Down') and their latest single 'Jump.' Rosé and Bruno Mars have taken the charts by storm with the Blackpink member's solo release 'Apt.' The single, inspired by a popular Korean drinking game, has spent 37 weeks on the Billboard Hot 100; it currently sits at No. 27, having peaked at No. 3. The singer closed her solo set with 'Apt.' As Rosé finished the first chorus, the crowd already more than engaged in the exuberant performance, fans erupted when Mars was lifted onto the extended stage. The pair — sporting matching racing jackets — looked downright thrilled to perform the song, making it a highlight of the night second only to Blackpink's performance of 'Jump.' There's something to be said for why K-pop groups make for the ideal stadium act. Blackpink, much like other K-pop groups, puts on a show seemingly tailor-made for a stadium with a non-stop, visually exciting nearly three hours of performance. A Blackpink show would be enjoyable in nearly any venue but a stadium with legions of fans, almost all with the group's iconic pink hammer lightstick in hand, adds to the experience ten fold. The girl group is slated to head to Chicago's Soldier Field, Toronto's Rogers Stadium and New York's Citi Field before heading to Paris, Milan, Barcelona and London this year. During act two — each portion broken up by pre-recorded video showing the women of Blackpink driving down a road, through the lights of Las Vegas and more — the group's eldest member, Jisoo, and the youngest, Lisa, performed their solo sets, while Jennie and Rosé performed theirs during act four. Jisoo endeared herself to the crowd with songs like 'Earthquake' and 'Your Love,' the latter featuring a section that found the 30-year-old being hoisted in the air and paraded around the stage. Lisa performed strong versions of 'Thunder' and 'Fxck Up the World,' with the 28-year-old White Lotus actress also showcasing her undeniable dancing skills. Jennie, who played a small run of shows timed to her solo release Ruby, had the crowd singing along to a mashup of her songs 'Mantra' and 'With an IE (way up).' The 29-year-old made the stadium feel like a club with a dynamic performance of her hit 'Like Jennie.' Rosé was the last of her group members to perform solo. The 28-year-old sang the mellow '3am' and an abridged version of her album's lead single 'Toxic Till the End' before ending with a dynamite performance of 'Apt.' It's clear that each member of the group has had time to grow as a performer — Lisa and Jennie made their solo Coachella debut, Jisoo toured Asia earlier this year and Rosé found herself with an unstoppable top 40 hit in 'Apt.' But each solo section skillfully conveyed the notion that performing as solo singers has only improved their skills and chemistry as a group. The choice to include these solo sections contributed to the overall feeling that any attendee of the show likely felt when leaving Sunday night — Blackpink is at the top of their game.

Nicolas Cage Explains Why His Relationship with Sarah Jessica Parker Was Short-Lived
Nicolas Cage thinks he knows why he and Sarah Jessica Parker didn't go the distance The two actors briefly dated around the time of their 1992 romcom Honeymoon in Vegas Both have since married and had kids with their spousesNicolas Cage has a pretty good idea as to why his relationship with Sarah Jessica Parker didn't last long. The Longlegs actor, 61, admitted that he likely bombed his first impression when he met the Sex and the City star's mother in the late '90s, in a statement to E! News on Monday, July 14. "I cared about Sarah, but I don't think I passed the Mom test," Cage told the outlet. "I recall sitting down with her and her mother for dinner at the Russian Tea Room, and I don't know if it was my blue Vanson Leather motorcycle jacket (which I still have) or my sinusitis, but I didn't hear from her again." His confession came after Parker, 60, revealed on the Sunday, July 13, episode of Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen that she and the National Treasure movie star dated around the time of their 1992 romantic comedy Honeymoon in Vegas — which featured a cameo from a young Bruno Mars as an Elvis Presley impersonator. "Did you date Nic Cage?" Cohen, 57, asked his guest point-blank. "Um, yes, I did," she answered. "Yes, I did." "Oh, wow," Cohen, who happens to be best friends with the actress, replied. "Oh, we got some talking to do." Cage has been married five times, most recently marrying Riko Shibata in a private Las Vegas ceremony in 2021. The actor, whose real name is Nicolas Kim Coppola, is a father to three children: sons Weston Cage Coppola, 34, whom he shares with actress Christina Fulton; Kal-El Coppola, 19, whom he shares with Alice Kim; and daughter August Francesca Coppola Cage, whom he welcomed with Shibata on Sept. 7, 2022. Parker has been married to Matthew Broderick since 1997 after having their first date in 1992. They share three children together. During her WWHL appearance, she told Cohen how she knew the Ferris Bueller's Day Off star, 63, was the person she wanted to spend her life with. "I just knew he was incredible," the Hocus Pocus star said of Broderick after "spending a little bit of time with him," adding that she knew he was for her "probably pretty early." She was also first to say "I love you" in their relationship. "Nothing to lose, you know what I mean?" Parker confessed of the romantic milestone. The Inspector Gadget star previously appeared on WWHL where he gushed about his wife of more than 30 years. Never miss a story — sign up for to stay up-to-date on the best of what PEOPLE has to offer, from celebrity news to compelling human interest stories. "Oh, the first time I met her," he began telling Cohen on an April 2022 episode of the show. "I saw her walking down the street and thought, 'That's it.' " During the same interview, he said he admires Parker the most for her "humor and wisdom." Read the original article on People
