Flawless, meet perfect: Ed Sheeran has recruited Beyonce for a remix of his latest single.
Sheeran announced in an Instagram post today (November 30) that he and Bey will split singing duties on the "Perfect" remix, which will be available to fans at 7 PM EST. The track's original version, the fourth single from Sheeran's newest LP, officially dropped in September, and followed the massive successes of singles "Shape of You," "Castle on the Hill" and "Galway Girl." "Bruh...am already crying at how beautiful this is going to sound," one follower wrote in Sheeran's Instagram comments, while another noted "HOLY S--- THE HEAVENS HAVE SPOKEN." The "Perfect" remix isn't the first time Beyonce and Ed collaborated, back in 2015, they teamed up for a live "Drunk in Love" set at the 2015 Global Citizens Festival in New York City's Central Park. Sheeran had previously covered the track during live radio interviews with Ryan Seacrest and Elvis Duran.

The forthcoming video which accompanies Lovato's second single from its eponymous new album, will drop Friday (December 1), and in a sneak peek of the moving ballad's accompanying imagery, Demi stuns in a lacy wedding gown, snuggles up to what appears to be her dream man (Grey's Anatomy's Jesse Williams!) and, later, joins a choir under the shadow cast by a willow tree. The single that preceded "Tell Me You Love Me," "Sorry Not Sorry," is officially Lovato's highest-charting single of her career.
Russell Simmons is leaving his Def Jam empire as another woman comes forward claiming he raped her in the early '90s.
Jenny Lumet, who is a filmmaker and daughter of director Sidney Lumet, says the alleged incident happened when Simmons offered her a ride to her Manhattan apartment. But instead, she says Simmons locked the SUV doors and took her to his place, despite her repeatedly asking to be taken home. She claims he first forced himself on her in his elevator, and then once inside his place ... he took her to the bedroom and raped her. Jenny told The Hollywood Reporter, "I made the trade in my mind. I thought, 'just keep him calm and you'll get home.' Maybe another person would have thought differently, or not made the trade. Simmons says he has a different memory of that evening, but acknowledges Jenny's "feelings of fear and intimidation are real." He apologized saying he's "been thoughtless and insensitive in some of my relationships over many decades." Model Keri Claussen Khalighi has also accused Simmons of raping her around the same time.

Sam Smith's got "One Last Song" and a Music Video to prove it. In the video, Sam stands center stage in an opulent theater (London's iconic Palladium) before wandering backstage and, finally, to the roof of the building, where he looks over the foggy city and smolders towards the camera. "One Last Song" is off Smith's sophomore album, The Thrill of It All, which was released November 3. Does Frank Ocean have a completed new album ready? frank hinted as much when he posted a 13-word statement overnight on his Tumblr page: “I made the album before 30. I just aint put that bitch out!”, he explained the sentences as “quotes from an interview I haven’t given.”
Ocean turned 30 last month, so his comment suggests he’s got a new record ready to go. A new album shouldn’t be a shock, considering Ocean has shared a string of new works this year from “Chanel” to “Biking,” “Provider” and “Lens” and he guested on the Calvin Harris track “Slide.” Earlier this week, Ocean began offering physical copies of Endless on his blonded.co web store.
Khalid and his multiplying fan base for various reasons. First, the 19-year-old was nominated for five Grammys -- best new artist, song of the year, best R&B Song, best urban contemporary album and best music video -- which prompted his mother, Ty Dolla $ign and many others to congratulate him.
And then Khalid decided to announce his 2018 North American Roxy Tour. He chronicled it all best as a stream of consciousness on Twitter this morning. As for the Roxy Tour, Khalid posted a poster listing all the scheduled 2018 dates written over a life-like drawing of Khalid holding his painfully cute pit bull mix named Roxy, whom Khalid rescued from a Los Angeles animal shelter. According to a press release, "Khalid is passionate about using his platform to support animal rights and finding safe, humane environments for animals to live. A $1 donation from every ticket sold on 'The Roxy Tour' will be given to local animal shelters in each tour stop." Tickets go on sale to the public on Saturday (Dec. 2) at 10 a.m. local time with presale options today (Nov. 28) until Friday (Dec. 1) via Citi's Private Pass. The tour will officially begin on May 1 in Portland, with a special pre-Grammys show at New York's Radio City Music Hall on Jan. 27. See complete dates below.
