Louis Tomlinson Sparks ‘Larry' Buzz After Liking and Unliking Romance Reel With One Direction Bandmate Harry Styles
Louis Tomlinson is once again at the center of One Direction romance rumors, this time because of a single Instagram tap. On June 29, the singer liked an Instagram reel that featured a clip of him and his former bandmate, Harry Styles. The reel was an emotional fan edit set to the song Die With a Smile. However, just a few hours later, fans noticed that Louis had unliked the video, sparking a fresh debate about what it could mean. The like did not go unnoticed by the One Direction fandom, where theories about Louis and Harry's bond have never really disappeared. For years, fans have speculated that the singers share more than friendship, coining the nickname 'Larry.' The moment Louis removed the like, social media erupted with posts asking if it was an accident, a joke, or a slip that he quickly wanted to undo. For some, it's proof he still keeps an eye on fan edits, while others say it's a sign he wants to put old rumors to rest. Here's what Louis has said before about Harry romance rumors This isn't the first time Louis has addressed talk about a supposed romance with Harry Styles. In April 2024, Louis spoke with Brazilian outlet G1, calling the rumors a little irritating. He told the outlet, "There's nothing I can say to stop people inventing what they want to invent." He also shared that the speculation sometimes goes "far too personal", especially because he now has a young son, Freddie. Louis Tomlinson made it clear that he has little control over what fans choose to believe, but he wished people would respect his privacy. For now, Louis hasn't made any public comment about the 'like' and 'unlike' features. However, this small online action is already gaining traction among One Direction fans. Some see it as just another example of how every move he makes online is picked apart for clues about his relationship with Harry. Others think it's just an honest mistake.

Lady Gaga's New Single Matches Her Career-Starting Smash
Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars' 'Die With a Smile' earns a forty-first week on the Hot 100, passing 'Poker ... More Face' to become her third-longest-charting hit. SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE — Episode 1878 — Pictured: Host and musical guest Lady Gaga during the monologue on Saturday, March 8, 2025 — (Photo by: Will Heath/NBC via Getty Images) Lady Gaga proved she was no one-hit wonder when she first broke out, scoring back-to-back No. 1 hits on the Hot 100. "Just Dance," her collaboration with then-rising musician Colby O'Donis, rocketed her to the top spot immediately. She followed it up quickly with "Poker Face," another champion. Both tracks remain among the most popular in a discography packed with pop smashes, and they rank as some of her longest-charting successes on the Hot 100. Now, one of them has been bested by one of Gaga's most recent singles, one which sounds absolutely nothing like its predecessors. Last week, "Poker Face" was tied with "Die With a Smile" in Gaga's discography as her third-longest-running success on the Hot 100. Both tunes had managed to find space on the roster of the most consumed songs in America for 40 weeks, but that tie has now been broken. "Die With a Smile," Gaga's duet with Bruno Mars, holds on and earns a forty-first stay on the tally. Now, it stands alone as her third-longest-charting Hot 100 win, while "Poker Face" has been bumped slightly to fourth. It will be about a month before "Die With a Smile" is able to advance again. "Shallow," Gaga's Oscar-winning track with Bradley Cooper, spent 45 weeks on the Hot 100. "Die With a Smile" will need to remain on the tally for yet another month after that before reaching the heights of "Just Dance," which lived on the list for 49 frames and ranks as Gaga's longest-charting release. While eight more frames on the Hot 100 is quite a lot to accomplish, it's entirely possible that "Die With a Smile" will match "Just Dance" one day — and perhaps even beat it. There's even a shot at it becoming Gaga's first tune to live on the Hot 100 for an entire year. This frame, "Die With a Smile" sits at No. 7 on the Hot 100, dropping only one spot. Continued radio play is largely keeping the track alive, as the duet remains in heavy rotation across a number of pop formats. This week, the throwback track appears on four of Billboard's radio tallies, and it lives inside the top 10 on all of them, even after 41 frames.

Bruno Mars Beats One Of His Biggest Smashes With A Timeless Duet
Bruno Mars claims two hit songs in the United Kingdom this week, despite not having anything brand new to promote. He's not actively pushing any singles, but two of his releases that originally dropped in 2024 are proving to be among his most successful career wins – ones that the British public is far from tired of hearing. 'Die With a Smile,' his collaboration with Lady Gaga, and 'Apt.,' recorded with Blackpink singer Rosé, are not only still present on the Official Singles chart, they manage to climb, and one of them now ranks among his longest-running successes in the country to date. 'Die With a Smile' returns to the top 40 on the Official Singles chart, the ranking of the most consumed songs in the U.K. This frame marks the track's forty-first stay on the tally. As it adds one more week to its total, the duet with Gaga advances in Mars's discography. With 41 weeks spent on the Official Singles chart, 'Die With a Smile' is now the singer's third-longest-charting tune in the country. Just last frame, it was tied with 'When I Was Your Man' at 40 frames each, but now that ranking has shifted, and the piano ballad has been pushed to fourth place. 'Die With a Smile' still has a long way to go before matching Mars's two longest-charting tracks. 'Uptown Funk,' his smash with Mark Ronson, spent 76 weeks on the tally, while 'Just the Way You Are,' one of his earliest hits, racked up 66. It seems likely that 'Die With a Smile' will continue to chart for a while — perhaps several more months — but whether it will be able to match those two generation-defining singles won't be known for some time. 'Apt.' appears even higher than 'Die With a Smile' on the main songs ranking, which makes sense since it hasn't been charting for quite as long in the U.K. His Rosé collaboration has now spent 32 weeks on the Official Singles chart. With that total, the English/Korean tune is now tied as Mars's tenth-longest-running win in the U.K. It's currently matched with his own 'Billionaire,' and next week it will likely tie '24K Magic.'

Lady Gaga Manages A Rare Radio Feat Thanks To Two Hugely Popular Singles
Lady Gaga lands at Nos. 1 and 10 on the Adult Pop Airplay chart with 'Die With a Smile' and ... More 'Abracadabra,' as she earns her lucky thirteenth top 10 on the tally. RIO DE JANEIRO, BRAZIL - MAY 03: (Exclusive Coverage) Lady Gaga poses backstage during Lady Gaga MAYHEM On The Beach: Rio de Janeiro, Brazil at Copacabana beach on May 03, 2025 in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. (Photo by Kevin Mazur/Kevin Mazur/WireImage for Live Nation) Lady Gaga is one of the defining figures at American pop radio and has held that status for well over a decade. With dozens of memorable singles under her belt, a look at her most successful tracks shows that she's been rather daring in her sonic choices. At the moment, the Emmy, Grammy and Oscar winner's current radio hits couldn't sound less like one another – another sign of that willingness to experiment. And yet, not only do the two tracks fit together on the same album, they also help her accomplish a somewhat uncommon feat on one specific tally. This week, Lady Gaga bookends the top 10 on the Adult Pop Airplay chart. She appears at Nos. 1 and 10 with two different tracks, both lifted from her latest album Mayhem. Interestingly, Gaga didn't occupy either of those positions just a few days ago. She only manages this showing thanks to the coordinated and precise movements of a pair of popular cuts. Perhaps most excitingly, Gaga earns a new top 10 hit on the Adult Pop Airplay ranking this frame. "Abracadabra," the latest single from Mayhem, steps up one spot from No. 11 to No. 10, reaching a new peak in the process. It does so in its fifteenth week on the list, which ranks the most successful tunes across U.S. radio stations that focus on a version of pop commonly referred to as adult pop, as it appeals to an older crowd. "Abracadabra" becomes her lucky thirteenth top 10 on the Adult Pop Airplay chart as it pushes forward. As "Abracadabra" breaks into the top 10 for the first time, Gaga also surges back to No. 1 — and she's not alone. "Die With a Smile," her collaboration with Bruno Mars, climbs one rung and reclaims the top spot. It replaces "Messy" by rising talent Lola Young, which slides to second place. Gaga and Mars have now led the Adult Pop Airplay chart for 10 nonconsecutive weeks with "Die With a Smile." That stretch represents exactly one-quarter of the 40 frames the track has spent somewhere on the tally. With its latest ascent, it becomes the first 10-week ruler for both musicians.

Janet Jackson, SZA, And More Highlights From 2025 American Music Awards

Hosted by Jennifer Lopez, the show included performances from Gloria Estefan, Renée Rapp, Becky G, and Janet Jackson.

Jackson took home the coveted Icon Award and performed a medley of 'Someone To Call My Lover' and 'All For You.' Her dynamic set marked the singer's first live television performance in years. During her acceptance speech, she expressed how 'honored and grateful' she is especially since she doesn't consider herself to be an icon. 'My family, myself— our dream wasn't ever to be famous. We weren't raised like that. We always had a special love for music, dancing, and singing and fame came with the result of hard work and dedication,' Jackson continued. 'My story, my family's story is truly an American's story. This would have only happened in America. The one thing that I hope for is that I've been an inspiration to others and artists to follow their dreams and succeed.' SZA snagged wins for Favorite Female R&B Artist and Favorite R&B Song.
