If you’re anything like us, we see an interesting headline during our daily scroll—pause to read it—but then keep scrolling without reading the actual story. So at the end of each week, we’re rounding up all the buzziest, news-worthy headlines you might have missed. Think of it like the “saved” feature on Instagram but for news instead of aesthetically pleasing photos. This is what you missed.
#1
The 2026 MTV VMAs took place this past Sunday (September 27) with a whole lot of star power and record-setting moments. Madonna returned to the VMAs stage for the first time in 23 years, opening the show with a jaw-dropping performance alongside Sabrina Carpenter and Charli XCX. The pop icon later took home three awards, including Artist of the Year. Taylor Swift also had a big night, winning Video of the Year for “The Fate of Ophelia” and the inaugural Artist Director honor. Sienna Spiro took home Best New Artist, while Lisa won Best Pop for “Dream.”

We’ll just keep watching Tate McRae, because she doesn’t stop giving us more! The pop star launched TATE 01, her first-ever perfume, inspired by ‘90s supermodels and their elegance and glamour. The scent is a mix of sparkling bergamot and clary sage, with white floral scents, amber, sandalwood and tonka bean. It also contains iso, which is designed to interact with each wearer’s natural scent.
#3
The Hunger Games released the very first single from their upcoming The Hunger Games Sunrise on the Reaping movie, which is set to release in late November. The track, “Draw You Out,” is an emotional tune by Noah Kahan. Being a fan of the The Hunger Games author Suzanne Collins’ work, it’s quite fitting that the first single from the soundtrack is by the American folk-pop star. The song was written specifically for the film alongside Aaron Dessner and is inspired by the tragic but hopeful story of Haymitch and Lenore Dove. It outlines themes of grief and perseverance.
#4
Rosalía is adding another honor to her resume! The Spanish star will receive the Billboard Hall of Fame Award at the 2026 Billboard Latin Music Awards later this month. The honor recognizes a career built on musical and visual creativity and versatility. Her recent projects, like LUX, have shown exactly why she deserves the honor and just how incredible of a storyteller and musician she is.

She’ll Be On The Road, Day And Night
Less than a month after releasing Day and Night, Carly Rae Jepsen announced that she’s taking the project on the road. The Canadian pop star announced a 26-city North American tour for next year, which will start in Edmonton and wrap up in Montreal. She’ll be playing in cities across Canada and the U.S. between April and May 2027. She’ll be taking the stage at New York’s Madison Square Garden, Los Angeles’ Kia Forum, and in Toronto, she’ll be at History.
