Going to a concert is special enough as it is, but things really step up a notch when a surprise guest comes out with your favorite artist.
Over the weekend, tens of thousands of fans got this experience at events across the globe, with Chappell Roan popping out with Noah Kahan at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena for her song “California”; Cynthia Erivo reuniting with her Wicked co-star Ariana Grande at the O2 Arena in London; and Kristen Bell regaling the Savannah Bananas crowd with a Disney-powered medley at Denver’s Coors Field.
On the new Billboard Pop Shop Podcast, we’re talking about the trio of delightful surprise guests crossing genres and continents (listen below).
Also on the show, we’ve got chart news on how Stray Kids tie for the second-most No. 1 albums, among groups, on the Billboard 200 as their latest effort THIS & THAT debuts atop the tally. Plus, Pooh Shiesty, Karol G and Role Model all bow in the top 10, and Ella Langley’s “Choosin’ Texas” moves closer to the all-time most-weeks record mark on the Billboard Hot 100 songs chart.
