On day two of the Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity, Ogilvy won two gold Lions, one silver, and 11 bronze Lions for a total of 14 Lions, bringing the network’s total to 30 Lions through the Festival.

Verizon’s 'Can’t B Broken' by Ogilvy New York won a Gold Lion in the Entertainment-Brand or Product Integration into Music Content category. The collaboration between Verizon, Beyoncé and Ogilvy put the Verizon network to the test in the biggest way possible. On the biggest stage. With the biggest icon there is. Beyoncé breaks the internet, but can she break Verizon’s network?

Matt Curry, Ogilvy's global executive creative director, said, “Starting with a big, smart, culturally explosive idea was just the beginning. From there the only path to success was through the biggest act of trust that an agency and client could undertake together. Ogilvy is so proud of this work and what it means to our relationship with Verizon, and to the entire team who made this phenomenal moment happen. Winning a Cannes Gold for ‘Can’t B Broken’ is a testament to what culture-first ideas can do when built on absolute collaboration.”

Beyoncé continues to make waves in the music industry with her latest album, Cowboy Carter.

Within just two months of its release on March 29, Queen Bey’s expansive 27-track album has surpassed one billion streams on Spotify – a significant milestone confirmed by Parkwood Entertainment on Wednesday, May 8.

The original king of lions is getting his own origin story — and will be joined by real-life queen Beyoncé and her daughter Blue Ivy Carter.

Mufasa: The Lion King, Disney’s new prequel to the 2019 blockbuster live-action Lion King, debuted its first trailer on Monday, April 29, giving a stunning glimpse of Mufasa (voiced by Aaron Pierre), Scar (Kelvin Harrison Jr.) and their home in the African Pride Lands.

Beyoncé, 42, reprises her role as Nala from the 2019 film. Blue Ivy, 12, voices the daughter of King Simba (a returning Donald Glover) and Queen Nala, named Kiara — a character who last appeared in 1998’s animated The Lion King II: Simba's Pride.

Beyoncé will perform at the MTV Video Music Awards to mark its 40th anniversary this September.

It’s a huge moment for the show, which hasn’t seen the Cowboy Carter star grace its stage since 2016 when she cleaned up with eight wins and performed a 16-minute Lemonade medley. Even having earned VMA nominations in 2018, 2020, and 2021, the 42-year-old still didn’t grace the show with an appearance and skipped last year’s to tour with Renaissance.

“Beyoncé is a huge get for the VMAs and will be a huge ratings draw," a source said, “She is currently figuring out how her appearance will look and whether it will be one song or a tribute similar to her 2014 closing performance when she received the prestigious Michael Jackson Video Vanguard Award."

The source continued: “As it’s such a big year, the ceremony wants to reclaim some of its prestige so reality TV stars from some of the more lowbrow shows and Tik Tok will have had a harder time gaining entry while artists like Dua Lipa, Muni Long and Billie Eilish will be given priority treatment."

“They are also hoping to book Taylor Swift," they added.

The VMAs will return to New York on September 10 - just four days shy of the 40th anniversary of the inaugural ceremony held at Radio City Music Hall. The VMAs will air in more than 150 countries and territories, reaching a reported 319 million households.

Beyoncé-Knowles Carter heard the cry of a young boy asking his mom for the singer in a viral TikTok video and decided to send him a special gift.

Over the last week, a video has been making rounds on social media of a 2-year-old boy named Tyler in the Philippines asking his mother, digital creator Bea Fabregas (@beafabregas on TikTok and Instagram), "Where’s Beyoncé?" while the two ate pizza.

In the TikTok video, Tyler repeatedly asks his mother about the Grammy Award-winning singer's whereabouts before he innocently asks his mom, "Can I visit Beyoncé?" to which Fabregas lets him know she does not know the singer personally.

Eventually Fabregas lets her son know that she isn't actually friends with the superstar and couldn't make that happen. However, it was clear that Tyler was not taking no for answer, declaring that Beyoncé was in fact his friend and he wanted to meet her.

The video of Tyler and his mom garnered millions of views and tons of shares and likes. With the help of the internet, it landed right in front of Beyoncé, who decided to send the young boy her favorite blue flowers and a stuffed animal with a sweet message.

South Carolina women’s basketball coach Dawn Staley received flowers from Beyoncé after the Gamecocks won the NCAA national championship earlier this month. The singer also sent flowers to Victoria Monét to congratulate her on her Coachella performance.

Beyoncé has a massive week on Billboard’s charts, thanks to her latest LP, Cowboy Carter. Along with charting 23 songs from the album on the Billboard Hot 100 (dated April 13), she ups her career total from 85 entries to 106. As such, she becomes the 17th artist, and only the third woman, to have logged 100 or more titles since the chart began in 1958.

Cowboy Carter debuts at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 (and the Top Country Albums and Americana/Folk Albums charts) with 407,000 equivalent album units earned in the United States in the March 29-April 4 tracking week, according to Luminate – the biggest one-week total of 2024. She also becomes the first Black woman to lead Top Country Albums.

Here’s a look at all 23 of Beyoncé’s entries on the latest Hot 100, all of which are debuts except where noted. (The 27-track Cowboy Carter also includes four mostly spoken-word interludes.)

Beyoncé’s Cowboy Carter gallops in at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 albums chart (dated April 13), debuting with 407,000 equivalent album units earned in the U.S. in the week ending April 4, according to Luminate. It’s the superstar’s eighth No. 1 on the all-genre Billboard 200.

With 407,000 units earned, Cowboy Carter claims the biggest week of 2024 and the largest since Taylor Swift’s 1989 (Taylor’s Version) bowed with 1.653 million units on the Nov. 11, 2023-dated list. Cowboy Carter’s launch is also Beyoncé’s biggest week, by units, since her Lemonade album debuted at No. 1 with 653,000 units (mostly from traditional album sales) on the May 14, 2016, chart. The new effort also lands Beyoncé her biggest streaming week ever.

Cowboy Carter also launches at No. 1 on Billboard’s Top Country Albums, Americana/Folk Albums and Top Album Sales charts. She’s the first Black woman ever to have led the Top Country Albums list, dating to its January 1964 inception. Cowboy Carter also claims the biggest week for a country album, by units earned, since last July, when Taylor Swift’s Speak Now (Taylor’s Version), opened at No. 1 on the July 22, 2023 chart with 716,000 units.

Cowboy Carter was introduced by the singles “Texas Hold ‘Em” and “16 Carriages,” which were released during the Super Bowl festivities on Feb. 11. The tracks debuted and have peaked (through the charts dated April 6) at Nos. 1 and 9, respectively, on Billboard’s Hot Country Songs chart, marking Beyoncé’s first entries on the tally. They have also reached Nos. 1, for two weeks, and 38 on the all-genre Billboard Hot 100 songs chart.

The friendship between Beyoncé and Jack White is still going strong.

Following the release of her Cowboy Carter album on Friday (March 29), Bey sent a bouquet of flowers to rocker Jack White. The White Stripes songwriter took to Instagram to share the sweet gift, which featured a note that reads, “Jack, I hope you are well. I just wanted you to know how much you inspired me on this record. Sending you my love, Beyoncé.”

“What a sweet gesture to receive here in Nashville this morning from the talented and gracious @beyonce celebrating her new Cowboy Carter album,” White wrote in the caption. “Much love and respect to you Madam, and thank you kindly. Keep making beautiful and powerful music, nobody sings like you.”
