Grande's news follows Usher hinting at a memorable Super Bowl Half Time performance. Slated for February 11th at the Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas, Usher tantalizes fans with the promise of 'important' surprise guests, rumored to mightily contribute to the R&B scene. With names like Alicia Keys and Beyonce being speculated, anticipation is high for what's touted as a 30-year culmination for the R&B icon, who underscores the necessity for a 'perfect' show.

Amidst professional developments, personal journeys continue. Ed Sheeran plans to prioritize family during his upcoming 'Mathematics' tour in Asia. Reports suggest that Sheeran will travel between the UK and tour locations weekly to spend time with his wife Cherry Seaborn and their kids, highlighting the balance between his stellar career and family life.

While new music brings joy, controversy also follows. Rapper Ice Spice faces a copyright infringement lawsuit over her 2023 hit 'In Ha Mood'. The claimants allege a striking resemblance to their own track, 'In That Mood', and demand recognition and recompense for their work. As Ice Spice deals with legal scrutiny, the music world also sends well-wishes to the Princess of Wales, recovering from planned abdominal surgery. Kensington Palace conveys the Princess's wish to maintain normalcy for her children during her 10 to 14 days of hospital recovery, with royal duties on pause.
