Welcome to your Daily Lowdown from HELLO! In today's episode, we discuss how Beyonce left her fans hanging when her Renaissance show in Arizona suffered a sound difficulty.

Not only that, Olivia Rodrigo's new song ties her with Taylor Swift for a big achievement and Selena Gomez and Miley Cyrus have both dropped their new singles. Listen to today's episode below…

Beyonce left her fans waiting this week when she walked off the stage mid-song due to what appeared to be a technical error with the sound. The superstar was performing to a sold-out crowd in Glendale, Arizona, when she exited the stage during the song Alien Superstar after the power reportedly cut out. Fans at the stadium were then left hanging for about ten minutes before Queen Bey made a return in a new outfit and performed the song again. Beyonce even made a reference to the moment later in the show when she joked that it was the fans being loud that caused the sound issue.

Olivia Rodrigo has tied with Taylor Swift for the second-most No.1 hits in the history of Billboards Hot Rock & Alternative Songs chart among female artists. The record comes after Olivia released her new song Bad Idea, Right? which immediately went to No.1, meaning she and Taylor sit equally behind Billie Eilish who is in first place for the record. The song is another big hit for the artist who is gearing up for the release of her second album Guts which will drop next month.

Drake has disappointed his fans after he failed to release his new album, For All the Dogs, as planned. The record was reportedly set to drop on Friday with Amazon Music writing in a now-deleted post on X that the album was coming on August 25th, however, fans woke up on Friday and released the new songs could not be found on any streaming sites. There's no word on whether the album from Drizzy will be released later in the day or over the weekend, but the internet has exploded with memes from fans who are sitting patiently awaiting the new music. Here's hoping Drake doesn't keep us waiting too long.

Miley Cyrus and Selena Gomez are officially back because the former Disney stars have both dropped their new singles. Miley has released Used To Be Young while Selena has dropped the track, Single Soon. To promote her new music, Miley released a continued version of her backyard sessions from her latest album Endless Summer Vacation. In the video, shared by ABC overnight, Miley discusses her relationship with her family and also performs her other track Wonder Woman, which she dedicated to the late Sinead O'Connor. Selena meanwhile gave an interview with Twilio Signal ahead of her release to discuss her journey with mental health and her lupus diagnosis, which she described as a brutal process. Both Single Soon and Used To Be Young are available to stream now.
