Megan Thee Stallion’s HISS Hits No. 1 – Here’s How She Plans to Toast to Victory

Megan Thee Stallion’s HISS Hits No. 1 – Here’s How She Plans to Toast to Victory

 

Megan Thee Stallion is laughing her way to the top as her latest single, “HISS,” gears up to snag the number one spot on the Billboard Hot 100 this week. The track, fueling the ongoing feud with Nicki Minaj, has only intensified the femcee battle, but Megan seems more interested in reveling in success and connecting with her fans.

In a recent Stationhead session with listeners, Megan playfully discussed her celebratory plans if “HISS” claims the coveted top spot. Making light of Nicki Minaj’s reference to her rowdy drinking habits, Megan joked about putting the straw back in the Hennessy bottle once the single secures its place at number one. Tina Snow herself acknowledged her growth since 2019, leaving fans curious about what other celebrations she has in store if the song becomes a chart-topping sensation.

While some Nicki Minaj fans believe Megan’s response hints at vulnerability, others criticize her for engaging with fans on Stationhead, a move they claim mimics the First Lady of Young Money. The debate over whether Megan should respond to “Big Foot” continues, with fans eagerly awaiting a reaction to solidify her position in the ongoing hip-hop beef.

The “Megan’s Law” bar has added a layer of complexity to the feud, with some fans believing it leaves Nicki Minaj with limited room for an immediate comeback. However, others speculate that Megan’s commercial success with “HISS” might be enough for her to claim victory over “Big Foot.” While a fiery response of 32 bars or more could escalate the tension, Megan Thee Stallion appears unfazed for now. For the latest updates on this high-profile feud, stay tuned to Honk Magazine!

The Jonas Brothers Just Played Halftime At The NFL’s First-Ever Game In Australia

The NFL played its first-ever regular season game on Australian soil Friday, and the league handed the halftime slot to a band that knows a thing or two about stadium-sized nostalgia: the Jonas Brothers. At the Melbourne Cricket Ground, with the Los Angeles Rams and San Francisco 49ers on the field, the trio ran through a medley built for a crowd that grew up on them — “Burnin’ Up,” “Sucker,” “Year 3000,” and their new one, “Listen When Sad.”

They also did something no one was expecting: a cover of John Farnham’s “You’re the Voice,” the 1986 Australian anthem that’s basically a second national song at this point. It’s the kind of move that plays a lot better live in Melbourne than it would’ve on paper. “Playing at the iconic Melbourne Cricket Ground in front of such passionate Australian fans is an incredible honor,” the group said in a statement ahead of the show. “We can’t wait to be part of this historic moment and celebrate with everyone in the stadium and watching around the world.”

The game itself wasn’t close — the 49ers took it 27-7 — but the real story was everything happening around the field. Cody Simpson opened the day singing “Advance Australia Fair,” and the whole event doubled as a launchpad for the Jonas Brothers’ next act: “The Burning Up Tour All Over Again,” kicking off Sept. 25 and running through Dec. 22, a nod to the original Burnin’ Up Tour from nearly two decades back.

That throwback framing isn’t just marketing. “Listen When Sad,” which the band debuted live at Madison Square Garden before Melbourne, pulls from a very specific corner of their teenage years. “We’ve tapped back into a sound that was kind of the sound of the early 2000s,” Nick told the MSG crowd. “Bands like Switchfoot, Taking Back Sunday, Dashboard Confessional.” They’ve even re-teamed with the producer behind “A Little Bit Longer” and “Lines, Vines and Trying Times” to get it right. No album’s been announced yet, but between the halftime show and the tour, it’s clear they’re not easing into this one quietly.

Harry Styles Is Extending His Tour Into 2027 — And Finally Playing U.S. Stadiums Solo

Harry Styles just told fans that “Together, Together” isn’t done yet. He’s tacking on 25 more stadium dates through 2027 — and this time he’s finally doing something he’s never done before as a solo artist: headlining stadiums in the U.S. and Canada.

The new leg kicks off in Phoenix on April 2 and rolls through Dallas, Los Angeles, Toronto, Atlanta and Chicago before jumping to Europe for stops in Berlin, Paris, Madrid, Rome and Dublin, wrapping with three nights at Wembley Stadium on Aug. 28. Tickets run $60 to $300, but Styles is also rolling out something new: “Unpredictable Fun Tickets,” a batch of $20 seats (£20 or €20, depending on the market) meant to keep the tour accessible, alongside a returning partnership with EARNT that lets fans earn tickets by volunteering in their communities.

Styles broke the news the old-fashioned way, in a newsletter to fans, confirming these are the tour’s “final cities.” “After that, I don’t know what comes next for me,” he wrote, “but I know that I’m excited to find out.” Every stop gets its own opening act, and the lineup is genuinely wild — Kylie Minogue in LA, Tears For Fears in London, LCD Soundsystem in Rome, Lainey Wilson in Toronto, and Caroline Polachek in Paris, among others.

This caps a run that’s already made history: Styles picked up a Guinness World Record in June for the longest residency by a musician at Wembley Stadium, beating out Coldplay’s old mark. The tour is behind his fourth album, “Kiss All the Time. Disco, Occasionally.,” which debuted at No. 1 on both the Billboard 200 and the UK Albums Chart. If this really is the last lap, he’s making sure it’s the biggest one yet.
