Stagecoach Festival will be taking place April 26-28 in Indio, California, and fans seem to think Beyoncé may show up. 

Billboard reports those in the Beyhive have noticed several clues that suggest Bey's possible appearance at the festival. For one, Cowboy Carter collaborators Brittney Spencer, Post Malone, Tanner Adell, Willie Jones and Willie Nelson have sets at the event.

Another potential clue: A name, Backwoods Barbie, is featured in the lineup and the website, where a link connects to an Instagram account with 15 pictures, and several mentions of Beyoncé and Cowboy Carter.

Posts include photos of Beyoncé in Western attire, and pictures of Dolly Parton and Grace Jones, who respectively appeared on Cowboy Carter and Renaissance. The most recent post displays a map of the Stagecoach Festival grounds. “Catch me on Saturday night at 7pm out in Diplo’s Honky Tonk!” the caption reads.

If that's not all, the account only follows Beyoncé, Parton, Wallen, Diplo, the Stagecoach Festival and restauranteur Guy Fieri. A banner and hauler promoting Cowboy Carter were also seen during Coachella weekend.

"Dj Backwoods Barbie on Ig is def giving very much Beyonce lol we see you gworl," one fan wrote on social media.

Another asked the question, "Hive we at Stagecoach this weekend or nah?!?"

In other Bey news, she sent out another set of flowers, this time to a young fan named Tyler who was captured on video asking his mother questions like, “Where’s Beyoncé?” and “Can I visit Beyoncé?” He also insisted, “Beyoncé is our friend!” 

Tyler's mom shared the news, adding the flowers were sent with a stuffed animal and a note that read, "I see your halo, Tyler." In a DM exchange between the mom and Bey's publicist, Yvette Noel-schure, she was told Bey "loved the video."

Aussies and New Zealanders may have to wait a bit longer before they can see The Weeknd onstage. The Australia and New Zealand leg of the singer's After Hours Til Dawn Tour has gone from postponed to canceled.

“The Weeknd ‘After Hours Til Dawn Tour’ for Australia & New Zealand is still in process of being rescheduled,” reads a statement from producers Live Nation, per Billboard. “Whilst we continue to work through the rescheduling process with the artist, tickets for the existing 2023 tour will be cancelled with all ticket holders receiving a full refund accordingly.”

When the new dates are announced, those who held on to their tickets will have priority dibs for new purchases.

The Weeknd's 11-date tour of Australia and New Zealand was originally set to start in November 2023. Two weeks ahead of the start date, however, it was postponed "due to unforeseen circumstances."

Kid Cudi's Insano World Tour was slated to kick off in late July, but his recent foot injury has delayed those plans. 

In a post shared Wednesday, the rapper revealed he's canceling the tour because it's impossible for him to fully recover in time for the trek. As previously reported, Cudi injured his foot on the second weekend of Coachella when he attempted to jump off the stage during his set in the Sahara Tent.

“Guys, so, I have a broken calcaneus. I’m headed to surgery now and there’s gonna be a long recovery time. We have to cancel the tour so I can focus on getting better to be out there in top shape to rage with you all," he wrote.

"Theres just no way I can bounce back in time to give 100%," he continued. "The injury is much more serious than I thought."

Cudi promised that all those who purchased tickets will get full refunds and said updates about new dates will be announced "as soon as possible."

"I can’t wait to get back out there with you guys and turn up how we do. I’m so sorry fam and I love you all so much, thanks for the endless love and support," he wrote. "Im really disappointed as I’m sure you guys are too, but I will be back. Thats a promise. Im ok, just a lil soreness, but I’m in good spirits.”

Keke Palmer has turned a page in her life and will be inviting people to do the same with her forthcoming book, Master of Me.

"This book means growth to me. It signifies the next chapter of my life," she tells People.

"It imparts the wisdom I've learned with the earnesty [sic] of knowing that I'm still changing," she says of the opus, which will debut from Flatiron Books on November 19.

It is Palmer's follow-up to her 2017 book, I Don't Belong to You: Quiet the Noise and Find Your Voice.

"I am looking forward to having this book out in the world because I know we are all dealing with the same things," Palmer tells the magazine. "We are all trying to love ourselves and learn ourselves."

She adds, "This book is my honest revelations of how I'm staying afloat and my hope and desire is to not even necessarily 'help' readers but to share with them." Keke says, "Sometimes we all feel alone but we aren't. And even those of us who seem to be doing well still struggle."

The book will explore the "Serious" singer, Nope star and Emmy-winning Password host's relationships and motherhood, as well as how she is moving forward with her career.

Victoria Monét is embracing her new body.

In an Instagram Story featuring a photo of her onstage at Coachella, the singer wrote, "Welp..I gained a lot of weight and it went a lot of places lol." 

"Face, arms, tummy, and most effectively...data**," she joked.

She attributed the change to dealing with PCOS, polycystic ovary syndrome, which is a hormonal disorder that can cause weight fluctuations.

"I usually am so critical and frustrated by it because PCOS has me really messed up, but optimistically, at least now there's two moons on stage," she said, cheekily referencing the chaps she was wearing and the moon featured on her stage backdrop.

Victoria also posted a series of photos from Coachella, captioning it, “Damn Coachella. I loved you and you loved me right back. Thank you so much!!! We had the time of our lives.”

A cameraman formerly employed by Megan Thee Stallion has filed a suit against the rapper alleging a hostile work environment.

The plaintiff, Emilio Garcia, claims that in 2022, he was traveling in an SUV with Megan — birth name Megan Pete — when she began having sex in the vehicle with another woman right beside him. He says he was “embarrassed, mortified and offended.”

After the incident, Garcia alleges Megan said, “Don’t ever discuss what you saw” and proceeded to berate and fat-shame him. 

Garcia also claims he was underpaid during his employment with Meg and was denied rest breaks and meals. His services were terminated in 2023. He’s seeking damages, including unpaid wages.

In response to the suit, Alex Spiro, an attorney for Megan, said in a statement Tuesday, "This is an employment claim for money — with no sexual harassment claim filed and with salacious accusations to attempt to embarrass her. We will deal with this in court.”

Monica opens for Nicki Minaj on her Pink Friday 2 tour, but if the hip-hop and R&B pairing doesn't make sense to you, here's an explanation: “What [Nicki] is doing is really paying homage to an era of music that was a part of her childhood and a part of her teenage years,” shares Monica, who's on the cover of HelloBeautiful's Mother’s Day issue. “The goal is to take everyone back to that moment and allow them to live in that space during the time that I’m on stage.”

While Nicki's long been a fan of Monica, the thought of them touring together came after the studio session in which Monica hopped on "Love Me Enough" with her and Keyshia Cole.

“Nicki has always been extremely supportive,” Monica said. “She always shared stories about singing my records when she was younger. We established a relationship early on. I would always reach out and say ‘Thank you for the support’ and vice versa. And over the years we’ve talked back and forth many times.”

Now that she's actually on the road, Monica's been taking the steps to ensure her fans get her best and that she keeps her health intact.

“I’m much better every performance when I’m rested. I’m learning to take the time and do the vocal therapy I need to do," she said, noting the "very intense surgery" she had about a year ago that she was told may take two years to fully heal from.

Monica also discusses the "level of happiness and joy" of being a mother and "the unconditional love" she gets from her children; co-parenting; her favorite parts of having a daughter; her faith; and her relationship with BMF producer Anthony “Ant” Wilson, which allows her "to be a lot softer than I typically am."

Big Sean has a special place in his heart for Dragon Ball Z, but that takes a back seat to his son, Noah Hasani. Since becoming a father in 2022, the rapper has become fond of the simple pleasures that come with parenthood.

“One of the biggest lessons of fatherhood that I love is just enjoying the simple things,” Sean tells Essence, for which he's the current cover. “I feel like I kind of lost touch with that before having my son. And what I mean by that is, if I’m walking with him outside, just looking at the sky, looking at a plant, he’ll want to reach out for a flower. And then I admire the flower, too. And I appreciate him, because even though he’s my son, it’s like he’s teaching me.”

He adds, “So that’s one of the things I really appreciate—slowing down and focusing solely on Noah. Because you can’t do anything else but focus on him.”

Outside of that, Sean has been focused on making music, including the songs on his upcoming album, which is “just me having fun and expressing myself.” 

“The only thing I’m going for is just authenticity,” he says. “I don’t like putting too much pressure on an album anymore. I just want to get my art off, do my thing.”

His dream acting role is playing a superhero in a movie with his "homies" ­Lawrence Lamont, director James Gunn and Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson.

“I know that when it comes to acting and just anything I do, I want to really concentrate and focus on it,” Sean says. “So when that time comes, if it’s right, then it’s right.”

Over the years, Rihanna has worn her share of stunning red carpet looks — and her share of extremely racy looks, as well. But now that she's a mother of two, Rih says she's experiencing some regrets over that.

For a TikTok posted by Vogue, Rihanna was asked if she had any "fashion icks." The Fenty mogul replied, "It's gonna sound hypocritical, 'cause I did so much s*** in my life. I had my nipples out, I had my panties out."

"But now those are the things, I guess, as a mom, and as an evolved young lady — young! Emphasis on young! — they're just things that I feel that I would never do," she continued. "And I’m just like, ‘Oh my God, I really did that? Nips out?’”

Rihanna was also asked if she had a favorite Met Gala look. She chose her 2015 look, which featured a massive yellow, fur-trimmed, embroidered cape made by a Chinese woman named Guo Pei to go along with the theme of China: Through the Looking Glass. 

Describing it as a "fur stole that went all the way down the stairs," Rihanna smiled, "Nobody will ever forget that."

It's Zendaya's world, and we're all just living in it.

That's the plot of life as well as the actress' new film, Challengers, a romantic drama set in the tennis world, co-starring Josh O'Connor and Mike Faist, and directed by Luca Guadagnino.

Zendaya stars as Tashi, a tennis prodigy who coaches her husband Art (Faist), a tennis champion on a losing streak, as he is set to face off against his former best friend Patrick (O'Connor), who also happens to be Tashi's ex-boyfriend.

Zendaya told Good Morning America on Tuesday that the sports knowledge she had going into filming was all thanks to tennis icons Venus and Serena Williams.

"What I knew of tennis before going into this film was really them," she said. "That was my only understanding of the sport mostly, growing up and seeing their influence in my life and in the world."

Zendaya said she was "so nervous" for the Williams sisters to see the movie, calling the experience "terrifying" but "an honor."

Given the love triangle at the center of the story, O'Connor said their characters "are tied" and "have this kind of invisible pull between the three of them."

"The whole film is really them dealing with the grief of not being together and then trying to find their way back together and they do it in some dubious ways," he added.

Zendaya is so tight with her co-stars, she confirmed they'll be joining her at this year's Met Gala, for which she is a co-chair.

"I haven't been to the Met for quite a few years now, so I'm coming back. I'm a little nervous," she said. "These guys, I believe, will be there, so I'll have my crew with me and we'll keep each other company. It's exciting."

If some Americans had their way, there would be a new President Washington: Denzel, that is.

A poll of 1,000 people ranked 40 stars to see who they'd like to see in the White House, and the Equalizer franchise star topped the list, with 15% of the vote.

Coming in a close second was The People's Champion Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, becoming the people's president for 13% of respondents.

Third place went to Tom Hanks with 12% voting for him; former California mayor and Academy Award winner Clint Eastwood ranked fourth with 10% of the vote, tied with George Clooney to round out the top five.

Oprah Winfrey was sixth (9%); Matthew McConaughey placed seventh (8%), and billionaires Bill Gates, Elon Musk and Mark Cuban took spots 8, 9 and 10, all with 7% of the vote.

That said, 36% said they weren't particularly interested in voting for any celebrity; 21% said star status would actively make them not vote for that choice.

Just 13% of respondents said celebrity status would make them "much more likely" to vote for that person.

Survey questions, methodology and results have not been verified or endorsed by ABC News or The Walt Disney Company.

And the feud continues: Quavo has officially responded to Chris Brown’s diss track.

On April 22, Quavo released his response to Brown's "Weakest Link," which took shots at him. On the track, “Over H*** and B******,” Quavo references Brown’s abusive past with ex Rihanna and calls him the “crackhead Michael Jackson,” among other things. He even includes the late Takeoff's voice on the chorus.

Brown responded on his Instagram Stories, writing, "Google Raps THAT SH** IS POOOOOOOH. Damn and I was excited..that sh** don't even need a response. Takeoff rap better. CMON QUAVIOUS."

Chris' song "Weakest Link" continued a back-and-forth that also includes his 11:11 cut "Freak." Quavo responded with "Tender"; Breezy's "Weakest Link" followed.

Meanwhile, 50 Cent has been giving his two cents on the feud, and he weighed in on the latest development Monday. "I don’t know why I like all of this, but I like it !" he wrote. "This heat keep it coming. Breezy gonna punch him in the face."
