Olivia Rodrigo's Albums Soar As Her World Tour Finishes
Olivia Rodrigo just finished her multi-year Guts World Tour. She began the venture in February 2024 and added a few final dates in Northern Europe this summer. The singer-songwriter performed in Dublin in late June and ended the trek in Manchester with shows on June 30 and July 1. Excitement around the conclusion of her global concert tour and her return to the United Kingdom helps the Grammy winner soar on the charts in that country once again.
Olivia Rodrigo's Guts is Her Biggest Album Right Now
Guts is Rodrigo's biggest winner among her albums — of which there are only two. That makes sense, as it's the newer of the pair and the one she was promoting on her concert tour. The full-length rises highest on the Official Albums Streaming chart, where it breaks back into the top 20 and settles at No. 17. It can also be found within the top 40 on the main ranking of the most consumed albums and EPs in the nation, as it jumps 10 spaces to No. 24.
Guts rises 20 spaces or more on both the Official Albums Sales and Official Physical Albums charts. However, it doesn't manage to enter the top 40 on either tally, so even with its impressive gains, it still sits lower on those rosters.
Sour is on the Rise as Well
Interest in Rodrigo's debut full-length Sour has also increased as the Guts World Tour revisited the U.K. Sour finds its way back to both the Official Physical Albums and Official Albums Sales charts, coming in at Nos. 88 and 93, respectively.
The same title jumps on both the Official Albums Streaming and Official Albums rankings, pushing to Nos. 16 and 25, as it seems that plays on platforms like Spotify, Apple Music, and other popular services are largely to thank for the project's renewed success.
Olivia Rodrigo Has Reached No. 1 With Both Albums
Both Sour and Guts have hit No. 1 on every chart on which they have appeared in the U.K. Sour has spent more than 200 weeks on half the lists it's found on, and is nearing that sum on the two purchase-only tallies. Meanwhile, Guts will soon become a triple-digit week charting win as well.

The feds flubbed it with Sean Combs — and he's sure to end up a martyr now
After nearly two months of jaw-dropping testimony, Sean 'Diddy' Combs is skating on the most serious charges against him. It took jurors 14 hours of deliberation to deliver a profound statement: Federal prosecutors didn't provide enough evidence to convince them that Combs was a sex trafficker who sat atop a ruthless criminal organization. They did get him on transporting individuals to engage in prostitution. But, in my book, the 55-year-old Combs is still a monster of epic proportions. Advertisement 6 Sean Combs was acquitted of the most serious charges — racketeering and sex trafficking — against him in the federal trial that ended this week. REUTERS To recap: The fallen hip-hop mogul is a despicable coward who terrorized and intimidated women, using them as objects in his grotesque, baby-oil-soaked live-action pornos. And, as video showed, he beat the living daylights out of a girlfriend who managed to get on his bad side. Not that Combs has a good side — despite the reputation he tried to cultivate by crowning himself Hollywood's host with the most, throwing annual star-studded white parties for soulless celebrities. Not to mention all those fluffy interviews with hosts like Ellen Degeneres and Jimmy Kimmel, and the red carpets he walked wearing natty, tailored tuxedos and flashy watches. He was nothing more than a low-life cosplaying as an old-school gentleman. Advertisement Combs preyed on women who were much smaller than he and much more vulnerable. In some cases, women who depended on him for their career. But, in trying to bring him down, federal prosecutors took a massive swing and had a big ol' miss — a rare one for the Southern District of New York. As the trial played out, it felt like they were trying to make a five-course feast out of breadcrumbs and scraps. They overpromised and underdelivered. 6 The prosecution's star witness, Cassie Ventura, said that Combs beat her and forced her to perform in 'freak offs.' FilmMagic Advertisement The trumped-up charges, initially brought by now-ex-U.S. Attorney Damian Williams — who also indicted Mayor Eric Adams and, according to former colleagues, seemed to harbor his own political ambitions — did allow the full extent of Combs' depravity and violence to become a matter of public record. There were more celebrity name drops than a Grammy ceremony. Not to mention the most raw, lurid details about his bizarre bedroom proclivities, including drug-fueled sex marathons known as 'freak offs' which are, sadly, now a regular part of common vernacular. The most difficult memories to shake will be his ex-girlfriend Cassie Ventura's war stories — which she delivered on the stand while nine months pregnant and nearly seven years from Combs' vicious grip. 6 Sean Combs' children (including sons Justin, left, and Christian) were a constant presence during their father's sensational trial. REUTERS Advertisement She graphically described beat-downs from Combs that were so brutal, she had to convalesce in private. In one instance, Ventura said he kicked her in the face during a car ride from hell and later had her whisked away to the London Hotel to recover — despite her pleas to leave. It all made for sensational copy and salacious headlines, but it wasn't enough to put Combs away for good. This entire costly event was tantamount to what legal expert Neama Rahmani told The Post was the 'most expensive prostitution trial in American history' and a 'tremendous loss' for the prosecution. Not to mention, a circus. 6 In 2017, Cassie Ventura and Combs attended the Met Gala. Getty Images 6 For over two decades, Sean Combs was the toast of celebrity circles. TheEllenShow/YouTube It's unclear what kind of time Combs will actually serve, but he's facing a mountain of civil suits. He deserves to sink into the shadows of society. However, he'll likely have achieved martyr status for some — all for being prosecuted and persecuted for his 'swinger' lifestyle. Even outside the courthouse in downtown Manhattan, supporters celebrated by squirting baby oil at each other and dancing suggestively. Advertisement Given that his lone courtroom prop was the Bible, I predict he'll emerge at some point — hawking fake contrition and humility like another commodity. Maybe he'll even wear the collection of avuncular crewneck sweaters he sported during the trial. He'll say that he mistreated and beat women because he suffered from the holy trinity of deflection: mental illness, sex and drug addiction. It's not like much of this is a surprise. Combs has a track record of antisocial behavior, dating back to an infamous 1999 nightclub shooting in which he was charged with weapons possession but later acquitted. (His protege rapper Shyne was convicted of the shooting and later claimed he was 'set up to be the fall guy.') 6 A heavily pregnant Cassie Ventura provided jaw-dropping testimony about alleged physical abuse during her the trial of Combs, her ex-boyfriend. BACKGRID For decades, Combs ruled an industry that not only ran on misogyny but explicitly bragged about it against the backdrop of a funky beat. Advertisement There was a great irony to the start of Combs' downfall. Ventura testified that he had threatened to release videos of her in freak-offs with male escorts, and she was petrified that he'd follow through with it. In the end, it was Combs who was done in by a video — of him beating Ventura in 2016, as she tried to flee a freak-off at a Los Angeles hotel. Her 2023 lawsuit and allegations of sexual violence, which he quickly settled, set his legal troubles into motion. Then the damning video was leaked, bolstering her claims of brutality. I hope that video is his legacy and overshadows those not-guilty verdicts.

Olivia Rodrigo's Wimbledon Look Sets the Standard for Summer Style
Olivia Rodrigo is the master of effortlessly cute style. The Guts singer was spotted earlier today at Wimbledon in London with her recently hard-launched boyfriend Louis Partridge, with whom she first sparked dating rumors back in October 2023. Rodrigo went all-in on color coordination, wearing a vintage Ralph Lauren gingham shirtdress from the spring 2000 collection. She paired the look with a Khaite Simona shoulder bag in an electric red rebel suede and red-rimmed Karen Wazen oval sunglasses. Though her dress is vintage, she has just cemented gingham as one of this summer's chicest print trends. Emma Watson also recently turned heads in Nice during the Cannes Film Festival in a powder-pink gingham midi dress—perfect for the sea breeze in the south of France. Whether you're dressing for a garden party, running errands on a hot summer day, or jetting between red carpet premieres, gingham is guaranteed to add a fresh pop of color to any look. Rodrigo was all smiles as she and Partridge chatted during the match. The singer is fresh off an incredibly successful string of performances—first at Gov Ball earlier in June, where she surprised fans by bringing out the legendary David Byrne of Talking Heads for a surprise performance, and most recently as the final headliner at Glastonbury. Over the weekend, she closed out the festival's Pyramid Stage with another iconic surprise: Robert Smith of The Cure. Together, they teamed up to perform the band's classics 'Just Like Heaven' and 'Friday I'm in Love.'

Sean 'Diddy' Combs' fans drench themselves in baby oil to celebrate rapper's trial verdict
The bombshell verdict in Sean "Diddy" Combs' criminal trial has sparked an unexpected reemergence of baby oil among fans. Ardent supporters of the embattled hip-hop mogul gathered outside Manhattan court on July 2 to celebrate the conclusion of Combs' nearly two-month trial, according to footage shared on social media. The Grammy-winning rapper, 55, was found guilty of two counts of transportation to engage in prostitution but acquitted on the most serious charge of racketeering and both sex trafficking counts. After learning of his partial acquittal, Combs clasped his hands together and raised them in a prayer motion toward the jury. Some of Combs' fans expressed enthusiasm by covering themselves in baby oil, a controversial item referenced throughout the sweeping federal sex-crimes case. Baby oil and lubricant, specifically over 1,000 bottles, were among the paraphernalia discovered during the federal raids of Combs' homes in March 2024, U.S. attorney Damian Williams revealed in a September 2024 press conference. In one clip, shared by news outlet TMZ and X user CultureClips, a female fan wearing a blue wig could be heard chanting, "I want the baby oil!" while she jumped around in excitement. In another video, shared by X user Katherine Harris, a shirtless male fan screamed "More oil!" as he reacted to the verdict news with other spectators. Baby oil was among the paraphernalia discovered during the federal raids of Combs' homes in March 2024, U.S. attorney Damian Williams revealed in a September 2024 press conference. The items included multiple AR-15 guns, large-capacity magazines, "evidence" of Combs' alleged sex crimes and over 1,000 bottles of baby oil and lubricant. Diddy fans celebrate his 'not guilty' verdict outside the courthouse by pouring baby oil on each other 😭😭 According to Combs' original indictment, the baby oil bottles found in his homes were used during the hip-hop mogul's alleged "freak off" parties, which were described as "elaborate and produced sex performances" that involved sex workers. Other items included multiple AR-15 guns, large-capacity magazines and additional "evidence" of Combs' alleged sex crimes. Fans' emphatic celebration of Combs' verdict mirrors similar behavior throughout the high-profile trial, which ignited a ferocious media circus among journalists, social media influencers and zealous supporters of Combs. Inside the court's overflow rooms, where many reporters and onlookers watched the trial unfold on midsize TV screens, fans' antics went largely unchecked by security, as they cackled, booed and hissed profanities when the rapper's accusers took the stand. Social media slams Diddy verdict: 'A nasty precedent' Much like the verdict in Combs' case, the court of public opinion has been split on the rapper's legal fate. Unlike Combs' oil-lathered fans outside the courthouse, many on social media expressed their disappointment at the partial acquittal in Combs' verdict. Some A-list critics of the disgraced music mogul, including 50 Cent and Danity Kane singer Aubrey O'Day, also criticized the ruling. "The Diddy verdict is going to set a nasty precedent and trend for what people (especially those with wealth & power) believe they can get away with, when it comes to sex, domestic violence, (and) abuse crimes," one X user wrote. "And that's honestly, the most terrifying part of this entire case." 10 bingeable memoirs to check out: Celebrities tell all about aging, marriage and Beyoncé Some social media users also shared their dismay at the significance of the verdict for victims of sexual abuse. "The verdict for Diddy is a message to all women that they are not believed. Sorry to the women out there," an X user wrote. "The victims especially, they deserved better."
