Benson Boone Scores First ARIA Albums Chart No. 1 With ‘American Heart'
Benson Boone has landed his first No. 1 on the ARIA Albums Chart, as his sophomore LP American Heart debuts at the summit this week. The chart-topping arrival follows the breakout success of Boone's 2024 debut album Fireworks & Rollerblades, which peaked at No. 17 and spawned the long-running No. 1 hit 'Beautiful Things.' That single remains a force on the ARIA Singles Chart, currently sitting at No. 8.

Sabrina Carpenter's Short N' Sweet holds strong at No. 2, while English alt-rocker Yungblud lands at No. 4 with Idols — his fourth studio album and second Australian top-five entry. The soundtrack to Netflix's K-pop fantasy film KPop Demon Hunters opens at No. 5, powered by buzz around the fictional girl group HUNTR/X. According to ARIA, it's the first animated soundtrack to reach the top five since Frozen 2 in 2019. HAIM's latest album I Quit debuts at No. 20, marking the trio's fourth ARIA chart appearance. Their 2013 debut Days Are Gone peaked at No. 2, followed by 2017's Something to Tell You (No. 4) and 2020's Women in Music Pt. III (No. 7). Meanwhile, Killing Heidi's Reflector returns to the chart at No. 22 thanks to its 25th anniversary reissue. The ARIA Hall of Famers originally topped the chart for six weeks in 2000, and swept four ARIA Awards that year including Album of the Year. On the ARIA Singles Chart, Alex Warren's 'Ordinary' holds firm at No. 1 for a 14th consecutive week — tying it with ABBA's 'Fernando' (1976) and Rosé & Bruno Mars' 'APT.' (2024-25) for third-longest reign of all time. If it claims a 15th week, it will match Ed Sheeran's Shape of You for second place. New at No. 3 is 'Victory Lap' from Fred again.., Skepta and PlaqueBoyMax, marking Fred again..'s second top 20 entry and the first for both Skepta and PlaqueBoyMax in Australia. Tinashe also returns to the top 10, as her Disco Lines-assisted 'No Broke Boys' remix rockets from No. 20 to No. 9 in its second week.

TikTok superstar Addison Rae reveals Australian tour details
Hot on the heels of her critically acclaimed debut album, TikTok star turned pop diva Addison Rae will bring her hyper-feminine it-girl hits to Australia in November. The 24-year-old will perform in Melbourne, Brisbane and Sydney between November 11 and 17 as part of her first-ever world tour – The Addison Tour – which will also see her travel across North America and Europe before the end of the year. The pop star will perform tracks from her debut album Addison, which was released earlier this month and landed at No.4 on the Billboard Top 200 and No.2 on the ARIA Albums Chart. Her music has been widely praised, with critics applauding her ability to nod to pop icons like Madonna and Kylie Minogue, yet still establish her own 'hazy, twilight, cosmopolitan cool' sound. Rae's rapid ascent to pop stardom has been surprising to some given her origins on TikTok. Before releasing her album, she was largely known for posting cute choreographed dance routines on social media – videos that were so well-received, they earned her over 88.5 million TikTok followers. She was also known as Kourtney Kardashian's friend, and even featured in some episodes of Keeping Up With the Kardashians. However, the tides began to turn once she released her EP AR in August 2023, which featured none other than Brat Summer queen Charli XCX. From there, she appeared on stage alongside Charli and Aussie pop prince Troye Sivan, and even featured on one of Charli's tracks (even if you're not a fan of dance-pop, you've still likely heard Rae's piercing scream at the beginning of Von Dutch Remix). This catapulted Rae (who was born in Louisiana, just two hours away from the hometown of Britney Spears) from ring lights to stage lights, and led her to release a string of mega-successful singles like Diet Pepsi and Aquamarine, the former of which became her first song to hit the Billboard Hot 100. Since releasing her album on June 6, Rae has been described as the 'new pop powerhouse' and 'pop music's newest it girl'. No stranger to the camera, she has also performed several times on-screen, including in Netflix's He's All That and Eli Roth's horror film Thanksgiving, which also starred Patrick Dempsey (Grey's Anatomy). She was also recently cast in the R-rated live-action hybrid Animal Friends opposite A-list actors like Ryan Reynolds, Jason Momoa, Dan Levy and Aubrey Plaza.
