Apple has a new ‘Viral' playlist on Apple Music and Shazam
Apple is launching a new global Viral Chart playlist in Apple Music that consists of tracks people are discovering through the company's Shazam service. The playlist, which is updated daily, shows the top 50 songs people have heard playing out in the real world and have logged through Shazam. You can see charts on Shazam's website as well.
The playlists use 'Shazam's data to offer a comprehensive view of today's fastest-growing songs across the globe, David Emery, who works for Apple Music in the UK, says on Threads. Emery notes that charts reflect songs going viral on Shazam in 'real time' and then ranks them based on 'their weekly growth in Shazam volume.'
As of writing, the top viral songs in the list include Shake It To The Max (FLY) [Remix] by Moliy, Nothing's Gonna Stop Us Now by Starship, and Hot Together by The Pointer Sisters. On Shazam's website, you can look at the rankings by country, if you'd like.

Prince of Wales celebrates 43rd birthday with new puppy picture
The Prince of Wales has marked his 43rd birthday in a picture with his dog Orla and three of her puppies. The photograph, taken by the Princess of Wales, was shared by Kensington Palace on William's birthday on Saturday, with the caption: 'Happy birthday! Love C, G, C, L, Orla and the puppies!' One of the chocolate cocker spaniel puppies is being stroked by the Prince of Wales while their mother Orla is behind him. The Prince and Princess of Wales have had Orla since 2020, after their first dog together Lupo, also a cocker spaniel – which they were given as a wedding present from Kate's brother James Middleton – died unexpectedly. Orla gave birth to four puppies last month and the photograph was taken in Windsor on a sunny day earlier in June. It appears to be a quieter birthday for the Prince of Wales than last year, when he took Prince George and Princess Charlotte to see Taylor Swift at Wembley stadium. Happy birthday! Love C, G, C, L, Orla and the puppies! 🐾 — The Prince and Princess of Wales (@KensingtonRoyal) June 21, 2025 William had faced a challenging 12 months in the lead-up to turning 42, with both Kate and his father the King diagnosed with cancer. In the week of his birthday this year, the Prince of Wales joined the King and Queen at Royal Ascot on Wednesday. His wife missed the event for the second successive year and was said to have been disappointed not to join her family at the famous sporting and social event in Berkshire. The King and Queen were back at Ascot Racecourse on Saturday and watched the races from the royal box, while Princess Eugenie and her husband Jack Brooksbank were spotted in the parade ring. On Thursday, the Prince of Wales was in Norwich with Earthshot Prize council member Cate Blanchett to see the hi-tech work of one of the 2023 prize finalists. The pair donned lab coats to see how Colorifix, an eco-friendly textile dye company, makes its products. William admitted he needed a 'layman's version' of the scientific explanations and later apologised to staff for 'all the stupid questions'.

5 zombie movies like 28 Years Later
Danny Boyle and Alex Garland's new film, 28 Years Later, brought their iconic zombie franchise back to the spotlight. Centering on a new group of survivors long after the Rage virus that has devastated the United Kingdom, 28 Years Later sets up a sprawling and exhilarating tale of action and horror that will surely heighten people's appetite for good zombie movies. Thankfully, fans of the film can treat themselves to several similar zombie movies that have been released over the years. Given how popular the zombie subgenre has become, it can be a challenge for one to narrow down their viewing choices when there are so many options available. However, those who loved 28 Years Later should now have these five films at the top of their watchlist. Recommended Videos REC (2007) This Spanish horror film follows a reporter and her camera operator when they are quarantined inside a building where a virus is spreading, turning those inside into zombies. Similar to 28 Years Later and its shaky iPhone camerawork, REC presents its story with 'found footage' taken by one of the characters, making for an immersive and heart-pounding viewing experience. Though Boyle and Garland's new film is far less claustrophobic than REC, the latter also seems to incorporate a supernatural element into its terrifying depiction of the zombie apocalypse. REC is available to stream on Tubi, Amazon Prime Video, YouTube, Google Play, Apple TV, and Fandango at Home. Overlord (2018) This zombie movie begins with a group of U.S. soldiers who end up fighting for their lives in a dangerous land already ravaged by war: Nazi-occupied France. There, they discover the Third Reich conducting human experiments on villagers, turning them into savage members of the undead. Both Overlord and 28 Years Later feature a healthy dose of over-the-top gore and action to satisfy hardcore zombie fans, all while presenting the horrors of war and violence carried out by humans and zombies alike. Overlord is available to stream on Tubi, Amazon Prime Video, Apple TV, and Fandango at Home. I Am Legend (2007) Loosely based on Richard Matheson's classic novel, I Am Legend centers around a scientist seeking to find a cure for a virus that has wiped out most of humanity and mutated the survivors into vampiric cannibals. Please note that the film's alternate ending, which was replaced with the one seen in theaters, is widely regarded as the canonical, superior conclusion. Like 28 Years Later and its predecessors, this modern adaptation of I Am Legend explores grief, loss, and humanity's potential for evil, with some characters appearing to act even worse than the zombies, making for an especially dark and thought-provoking narrative. I Am Legend is available to stream on Peacock, Amazon Prime Video, YouTube, Google Play, Apple TV, and Fandango at Home. Army of the Dead (2021) Army of the Dead follows a team of former mercenaries who try to rob a casino in Las Vegas years after a zombie plague has ravaged the city. Like 28 Years Later, director Zack Snyder's action-packed zombie film follows its heroes as they leave the comfort of their homes to explore a zombie-infested land. It also features different breeds of zombies, including the slow-walking shamblers and the quick, intelligent Alphas, adding different levels of terror and action to the story. Snyder's film even mirrors the fantasy-inspired aesthetic of 28 Years Later, with the Alpha zombie, Zeus, ruling over his undead army in the ruins of Las Vegas like a medieval king. Army of the Dead is available to stream on Netflix. 28 Days Later (2002) This is a fairly obvious choice, but fans of 28 Years Later should catch up on the film that started Boyle and Garland's whole horror franchise. Led by actor Cillian Murphy decades before Oppenheimer, 28 Days Later follows a man who wakes up from a coma in a post-apocalyptic London, where he is forced to survive against hordes of infected zombies and radical human survivors. 28 Days Later is known for popularizing super-fast zombies with the frenetic, frightening visuals replicated in the threequel. While 28 Years Later takes place long after the initial zombie outbreak, the original film also explores how people try to rebuild and maintain society while blurring the line that separates humans from the infected. 28 Days Later is available to stream on Pluto TV, Fandango at Home, Google Play, Apple TV, and Amazon Prime Video.

JoJo Siwa says she felt 'forced' to come out as a lesbian
In a new interview with the Daily Mail, JoJo Siwa discussed her new relationship with her Celebrity Big Brother co-star, Chris Hughes, and the world's reaction to her dating a man after coming out as a lesbian. Sign up for the to keep up with what's new in LGBTQ+ culture and entertainment — delivered three times a week straight (well…) to your inbox! Siwa told another contestant on Celebrity Big Brother UK that she felt "queer" was a better fitting label than lesbian as her and Hughes grew closer. Looking back, she clarified how she currently identifies. "When I came out at 17, I said, 'I'm pansexual, because I don't care [about gender].' But then I kind of boxed myself in and I said, 'I'm a lesbian.' And I think I did that because of the pressure." When the interviewer asked her where that pressure came from, she said, "In a weird way, I think it came a little bit from inside the [LGBTQ] community at times. From people I know, from partners I've had. You just get put in this world where you feel like, because you now have said, 'Oh, I'm a lesbian,' you have to be a lesbian. And the truth is, sexuality is fluid." Siwa and Hughes' relationship grew out of an interaction they had on Celebrity Big Brother after Hughes defended her against a homophobic interaction from actor Mickey Rourke. After that, their bond grew closer and blossomed into an on-screen romance that garnered thousands of comments on their relationship for days. Now, the two share photos of themselves cuddling together on vacation and declaring their love for one another. Some find her relationship hard to believe due to her over-the-top antics and her most recent attempt to shed the "child star" label. After coming out in 2021, she said she felt that her former television network, Nickelodeon, "made the conscious choice to forget about [her]," and she redirected her focus to making music. In 2024, Siwa released her song, "Karma," and called herself the "CEO of gay pop." She said during the interview that this era of her life was all "nonsense." Siwa admitted that she "faked being naughty for a year" and "faked that I was screwing people left and right," saying she "wanted attention." After reflecting on the most pivotal moments of her career and what she's had to deal with, Siwa tells the Daily Mail that she would do everything the same way again if given the chance. "I've already thought about it, and I'm beyond happy with it all. If I could go back in time, I wouldn't change a thing. Really. Zero. I would change nothing," she said.
