Speaking of tours, Elton John shared an exciting update on his Farewell Yellow Brick Road concerts. The legendary singer took to social media to tell his fans that, after many cancellations, he will finally be returning to Australia and New Zealand at the beginning of 2023. The Your Song artist then went on to say he would be playing a show in Newcastle, New South Wales, for the first time ever. 

Cardi B is expecting to testify in court over claims she used artwork on an album cover without permission. Cardi's 2016 mixtape featured a man with a distinctive back tattoo which prompted Kevin Brophy Jr to file a lawsuit in 2017. Kevin claims he faced humiliation and distress after his "likeness" was used in this way. Cardi did attempt to settle the case out of court, but this was not agreed by either party and the trail begins in August.
