Billie Eilish Makes Chart History Again As Her Song Refuses To Fall

Billie Eilish has been riding high on the incredible success of her single 'Birds of a Feather' for months now. The tune continues to be a major win across nearly every Billboard ranking it appears on. That statement is especially true on the company's rock and alternative tallies, where Eilish's Grammy-nominated cut proves unbeatable. The track makes history yet again — something that the title is used to doing — but this frame is particularly special.
'Birds of a Feather' is a non-mover at No. 1 on the Hot Rock & Alternative Songs chart. The track earns its thirty-eighth stay on the throne on Billboard's list of the most consumed tracks in the country that could be classified as some form of rock or alternative in terms of style. The cut has spent 49 weeks on the list, with all but 11 of them in first place.
As Eilish rules once again, 'Birds of a Feather' breaks out of a tie and officially becomes the sole second-longest-running No. 1 of all time on the Hot Rock & Alternative Songs chart. Last time around, it was matched for that position in the history books with 'Heat Waves' by Glass Animals. For a short time, both smashes had managed 37 turns at No. 1. But now, 'Heat Waves' is forced down to third place on this all-time roster.
It will be months before Eilish comes even close to matching the all-time record Panic! at the Disco established — a high that may never be matched or beaten. The multi-genre band's 'High Hopes' collected an amazing 65 weeks at No. 1 on the Hot Rock & Alternative Songs tally during its run. That's one of the most impressive showings on any Billboard list, regardless of how they're compiled or what style they focus on.
'Birds of a Feather' doesn't only rule the Hot Rock & Alternative Songs chart this week. It also leads both the Hot Alternative Songs and Alternative Streaming Songs rankings, keeping at No. 1 on all three lists. The cut is so popular, it manages to live inside the top 10 on another half-dozen Billboard rosters, including the all-genre Radio Songs tally as well as both of the company's Billboard Global charts.

Jennifer Lopez suffers wardrobe malfunction during concert

Jennifer Lopez accidentally left her skirt on the floor Friday during a concert in Poland. Lopez, who performed in Warsaw on Friday for her 56th birthday, suffered a wardrobe malfunction during the middle of her celebration. The "Waiting for Tonight" singer was in the midst of receiving birthday wishes during her livestreamed concert when her gold sequined skirt fell to the ground. Lopez glittered in gold wearing a metallic bra with a matching fringed skirt for the show. As she walked across the stage, concert-goers caught a glimpse of her matching underwear when her sparkling skirt hit the stage. "Thank you, Warsaw," Lopez screamed to the crowd when suddenly her skirt broke. "Oh! I'm out here in my underwear." A backup dancer rushed to her side and attempted to cover up Lopez, only for the "Let's Get Loud" singer to throw the broken garment into the crowd. "I'm glad that they reinforced that costume, and I'm glad I had underwear on," she said. "I don't usually wear underwear." Representatives for Lopez did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital's request for comment. JLo's set to perform once again this week in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates. It's unclear if any additional precautions are being taken to prevent another on-stage incident. The tour, which began earlier this month, is her first tour in six years. Lopez was slated to embark on the "This is Me… Live" tour in the summer of 2024, but canceled the concerts to spend time with her family. Representatives for Live Nation explained JLo would be "taking time off to be with her children, family and close friends." "I am completely heartsick and devastated about letting you down," Lopez wrote in her newsletter. "Please know that I wouldn't do this if I didn't feel that it was absolutely necessary. I promise I will make it up to you and we will all be together again. I love you all so much. Until next time ... " Two months later, Lopez filed for divorce from her fourth husband, Ben Affleck. The Hollywood heavyweights finalized their divorce in January, with both parties waving spousal support, in addition to waiving further discovery proceedings. Affleck and Lopez were married for two years before she filed for divorce on Aug. 20 in Los Angeles County Superior Court. Her petition for the dissolution of their marriage was filed on the two-year anniversary of their Georgia wedding.

One month later, the newlyweds hosted a backyard ceremony for friends and family at the $8 million Georgia mansion Affleck purchased when the couple first began dating 20 years ago. Affleck and Lopez first met while working on the set of "Gigli" and were engaged in 2002 with plans to marry in September 2003, but they postponed the wedding and ultimately called off their relationship at the beginning of 2004. "Bennifer" reunited once again before the summer of 2021, and Affleck proposed to Lopez in April while she was taking a bath.

‘Bob's Burgers' Celebrates 300 Episodes and Teases New Holiday Episodes

The Bob's Burgers panel is always a popular draw at San Diego Comic-Con, and programmers answered the call of the Belcher faithful by moving it to Ballroom 20—not quite the cavernous Hall H, but a larger venue than previous years. Season 15 has just four episodes left to air, but fans won't have long to wait until season 16: it hits Fox in September. Season 16 contains a big milestone with Bob's Burgers' 300th episode. 'There's something absolutely bizarre about doing 300 episodes of television on the same show across 15 years,' creator and executive producer Loren Bouchard said. 'I feel like we get to sit with these characters. We kind of have this strange, you know, meditation where we have to wake up every day and think about these characters. And even though [it's] characters from a comedy, it has an effect. You know, you start to really sit with—for me, anyway—this idea that the restaurant could fail, and we're never gonna resolve that,' he said. 'We're gonna sit with this idea for 15 years, to this point 300 episodes, and we don't know whether they're going to make it or not. I just really appreciate that, because it makes me more comfortable with the idea that we still have to be silly. We still have our small successes; no matter what, we have to figure out what we want to enjoy about each other and sort of take our little wins when we can.' The audience got to see a clip from the season 16 premiere—a flashback to the restaurant's earliest days, when Bob and Linda aren't yet parents (but are about to be)—as well as a glimpse of a still-in-production Christmas episode, which will see the family visit a festive village, where Louise convinces Bob to decorate cookies for Santa. Also, more good news for fans of Bob's Burgers' legendary holiday episodes: season 16 will also feature a Halloween episode. 'You're going to enjoy it. Teddy takes a job in the store next door,' Bouchard said, describing the latest tenant of the ever-changing retail space next to the burger joint as an 'occult' shop—'not a Halloween shop like costumes, but really creepy.' (No word on whether the kids will bust out a new array of pun-tastic costumes, but Bouchard named Louise's 'Dragon With a Girl Tattoo' as one of his biggest favorites from Halloween episodes past.) SDCC also saw an in-production clip featuring Linda's sister, Gail (voiced by Megan Mullally)—giving Bob a terrifying but surprisingly effective massage. Gail will also feature in an upcoming storyline where she plans to get married as part of an art project, to Linda's understandable chagrin. Along with Bouchard, the panel featured supervising director Bernard Derriman as well as cast members H. Jon Benjamin (Bob), John Roberts (Linda), Kristen Schaal (Louise), Eugene Mirman (Gene), Dan Mintz (Tina), and Larry Murphy (Teddy). Bob's Burgers season 15 runs through August 14—then season 16 kicks off September 28. The show has been renewed through season 19. Want more io9 news?
