Tate McRae has been on a winning streak for months as she continues the promotional campaign surrounding her latest album, So Close to What. Multiple singles from the collection, as well as one high-profile collaboration with a country superstar, keep pushing her career to new heights. The pop powerhouse's latest release is another big hit, as "Just Keep Watching," taken from the upcoming soundtrack for the F1 movie, arrives on the Billboard charts and earns McRae yet another No. 1.
The cut launches at No. 1 on two Billboard rankings this frame. McRae's latest tune opens atop both the Hot Dance/Electronic Songs and Dance/Electronic Streaming Songs charts. McRae has previously reached the summit on both tallies, and "Just Keep Watching" adds to her growing total.
The Canadian singer has now scored a trio of champions on the Hot Dance/Electronic Songs list — an impressive feat considering Billboard only introduced the tally earlier this year. She's landed just half a dozen hits on the roster, and half of them have led the charge.
On the Dance/Electronic Streaming Songs ranking, the new win doubles her career total of No. 1s and gives her a seventh top 10 smash overall.
McRae almost leads the Dance/Electronic Digital Song Sales chart as well, but "Just Keep Watching" is forced to settle for the runner-up slot. Instead, "Abracadaver" by Lady Gaga refuses to budge, earning a fifteenth turn at the top, and "Just Keep Watching" follows closely behind.
Her collaboration with Regard and Troye Sivan, which dominated for a month in 2021, now stands as her second-highest-charting smash, pushed down within her discography by McRae's F1 track.
McRae's new tune also brings her back to the top 40 on the Hot 100, where it revs its engine at No. 33. The cut quickly becomes a streaming success as well, launching at No. 17 on the Streaming Songs tally, and it's a major win on Billboard's global rankings too.
This frame, McRae sees two singles chart above "Just Keep Watching" on the Hot 100, giving her a trio of top 40 successes simultaneously. "What I Want" with Morgan Wallen, which debuted at No. 1 just a few weeks back, holds steady at No. 2. "Sports Car," which may be the breakout hit from So Close to What, climbs from No. 25 to No. 22 as radio continues to power its ascent.

In the Arena: Serena Williams review – there is just no one in the world that matches up to her (and her sister)
Serena Williams, holder of 39 grand slam titles and four Olympic gold medals, who spent 319 weeks as tennis's world No 1 and became the highest-earning female athlete in history, never thought she was that good when she was a young player. That was because she was always training against her older sister, Venus ('she was the prodigy of prodigies'), the only person in the world who could really challenge her. A year younger, Serena remembers being shorter and weaker and resorting to cheating on line calls at practice so she could occasionally beat her. In the Arena: Serena Williams (the title comes from President Roosevelt's 1910 speech to the Sorbonne – 'It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena' so, yes, consider me told) is an eight-part docuseries that covers Serena's rise and rise over her 27-year tennis career before she retired three years ago. Since then, incidentally, she has been busy with her venture capital firm, production company, body care and pain relief startup, beauty line and raising two children. Honestly, it's like looking in a mirror, is it not? Advertisement In the Arena was executive produced by Serena and is clearly meant to be the definitive version of events. It would be too strong to call it hagiographic, but it is a full-blooded celebration of her achievements. It is not the place to come if you want, for example, an interrogation of the techniques used by the sisters' astonishing father and coach, Richard Williams, to mould two champions. 'My dad was a marketing genius,' says Serena of his marshalling of press attention round his children in the early years, regardless, some might say and have said, of the psychological impact. 'There's a very thin line between parent and coach … But I would say at the end it was all worth it,' is as far as Serena goes here in acknowledging the criticism Richard has faced for his intense focus on their professional success. Then it's on to the good stuff. The sisters turning pro – Venus flying from the start, Serena stumbling slightly before she too took off. The beating of rivals and established stars ('I was determined, determined to take her down … I'm coming for you. I'm coming for everyone') and their swift domination of a game that had hitherto been almost solely the preserve of a white, moneyed elite. 'Little sisters from Compton. Can't really take that too seriously, right?' Inevitably, of course, they begin to meet in grand slam finals. The footage – the grace, the power of them – is astonishing. Almost as astonishing, if in a gradually emerging way, is the grace with which they handle the competition between them, the wins and the losses. Serena talks about benefiting from Venus going first in everything, from turning pro, to handling good and bad press, to playing individuals Serena will later face in tournaments. They talk with sincerity about being pleased for each other's wins even as they mourn and analyse their own losses. And they talk about the bifurcation between life as sisters and life as absolutely dedicated competitors and not letting either one infect the other. They warmed up together before their first joint grand slam final, the 2001 US Open. Venus won. 'I can't say I enjoyed it. I did what I had to do.' 'I wasn't happy,' adds Serena. 'But I was OK. She was the phenom. It was never me.' Her turn would come. She learned to pretend she was playing someone else when it was Venus on the other side of the net. By the time Wimbledon rolled round a year later, she was ready to be No 1. 'I gotta have it,' Serena grins, remembering. 'That's what I need in my life. Because it's just an extension of who I was. As Thanos says: I was inevitable. I couldn't stop the roll.' Advertisement Nor could anyone – including the haters behind the racial and misogynist abuse she dealt with – or anything, including the difficult birth of her first child, in 2017, which nearly killed her. She retired in 2022, and plunged straight into what is already a highly successful and lucrative second act. It would be fascinating to compare and contrast another pair of sisters or – perhaps even more fascinatingly – a pair of brothers who followed the same trajectory. Would they have stayed so close, maintained the same boundaries between love and work, or would they have disappeared under the pressure of competition? Would they have spurred each other on to greater heights in the same way, or destroyed each other? Would they remain such generous supporters of each other, or have combusted by now? What makes the mind not just of a champion – but of a champion who survives the ride intact? Maybe one day we'll find out. But there is as yet nothing to compare to Serena or to Venus separately, let alone together. • In the Arena: Serena Williams airs on BBC One and is on iPlayer now

Kids battling cancer enjoy Hollywood movie experience thanks to Michigan nonprofit
A Michigan-based nonprofit rolled out the red carpet for kids undergoing cancer treatment and their families on Saturday afternoon. The Bottomless Toy Chest hosted its 12th annual movie event. Nothing says Hollywood movie experience more than a private screening of the new movie Elio at Emagine Theater in Royal Oak, Michigan. "It brings them hope. It brings them joy and then healing in all the same moments," Stephanie Zinser, Matthew and Ignacio's mother, said. As 11-year-old Mathew Zinser walked through the door, he was greeted by cheering fans and paparazzi. Matthew Zinser is still recovering from a bone marrow transplant two years ago. He and his 8-year-old brother Ignacio Zinser both have a rare genetic disorder called Shwachman-Diamond syndrome, which can develop into leukemia. They spend a lot of time at the hospital, away from their other six siblings, getting treatment. "When you're going through a treatment, it separates the family at times, and this is a great event to bring them together to celebrate something that they don't have on a daily basis," Stephanie Zinser said. After the movie, attendees got to enjoy some pizza, crafts and cookie decorating, all thanks to the nonprofit. "Our mission is to promote a positive state of mind in children who are going through very difficult treatment by providing them with empowering toy experiences that help them stay focused, stay comfortable, and, you know, have a sense of normalcy during a very difficult time in their lives," Micky Guisewite, founder & executive director of the Bottomless Toy Chest, said. While Ignacio loved Elio and the lesson he learned, his favorite part of the day was spending time with his family. "Because you get to be with your family, and you get to just enjoy being with your family," Ignacio Zinser said. And that's what makes moments like this special. The Bottomless Toy Chest serves children in 15 hospitals and clinics throughout Michigan. It has expanded to 15 other states. This year, the nonprofit says it will give out more than 35,000 toys.

Video: Mariya Agapova kisses Jessica Eye on the mouth during BKFC faceoff
Two former UFC fighters shared a kiss during BKFC 76 pre-fight faceoffs, though one was not happy. While fighters occasionally get physical during their final opportunity to mean-mug their opponent, it's not usually in the way Mariya Agapova did it Friday when she kissed Jessica Eye on the mouth. Advertisement Eye was not a consenting party in the lip-locking. She appeared caught off guard by the action and vented some frustration toward Agapova moments later. The maneuver could add an additional layer of heat to Saturday's matchup, which takes place on the main card at Dickies Arena in Fort Worth, Texas.
