Kelsea sings about "befriending a pop star" and regretting doing a song with them because they don't talk anymore. Kelsea and Halsey collaborated in 2018 on "The Other Girl."

Harry Styles stumped for gubernatorial hopeful Beto O'Rourke during his Austin show by putting a campaign sticker on his guitar, reports KVUE.

Ed Sheeran will be on The Late Show on Thursday, October 13 for what is being teased as "a very special performance."
