Lady Gaga and Ariana Grande’s Song “Rain on Me” dropped early this morning. Gaga has called “Rain on Me” a “celebration of all the tears,” and claims in a new Apple Music interview that rain doubles as a metaphor for all the alcohol she’s consumed to numb her pain. “I’d rather be dry, but at least I’m alive,” she sings throughout the song.

Lady Gaga and Grande spoke with Apple Music’s Zane Lowe about their collaboration, in an episode set to air today. “Her and I connected right away and she was so wonderful,” Gaga said, and Ariana added, “It feels so fun to be part of something so upbeat and straight pop again. It felt so good, and fun, and happy to dip a toe into her world a little bit… she made me feel so comfortable.”

“Rain on Me” follows the release of LP single, “Stupid Love,” which Gaga unveiled in February. In addition to Grande, the 16-song Chromatica features contributions from Elton John and Blackpink.

Britney Spears is making history with her debut single just days after celebrating the 20th anniversary of her record-breaking album Oops!…I Did It Again.Rolling Stone has released their “100 Greatest Debut Singles of All Time” rankings list, and Spears sits at the top with “…Baby One More Time.”

Released in 1999 when Spears was just 16-years-old, the song spent 32 weeks on the Hot 100, is the fifth best-selling single by a female artist and has generated more than 285 million streams in the U.S.

“In the great tradition of debut singles, it was a divisive statement that drew a line between past and future…with ‘…Baby One More Time,’ this girl changed the sound of pop forever: It’s Britney, bitch. Nothing was ever the same,” Rolling Stone wrote of the song.

“Number ONE ??!!? Thank you @RollingStone …. what an honor 💋💋💋 !!!!!!,” she wrote on Twitter.

Little Nas X’s “Old Town Road,” Kanye West’s “Through the Wire,” and Outkast’s “Player’s Ball” also made the list, as did Kesha’s “Tik Tok,” The Weather Girls’ “It’s Raining Men,” Destiny’s Child’s “No No No,” Rihanna’s “Pon de Replay,” Billie Eilish’s “Ocean Eyes,” Maren Morris’ “My Church,” Lana Del Rey’s “Video Games,” Hanson’s “MMMBop,” Alicia Keys’ “Fallin’,” Madonna’s “Everybody,” One Direction’s “What Makes You Beautiful,” and Lorde’s “Royals.”

Fans took to social media, concerned that Seacrest had a neurological episode. He also absented himself from Live With Kelly and Ryan Monday morning, prompting more concern. So much so, his rep spoke to People.

The rep said: “Ryan did not have any kind of stroke last night. Like many people right now, Ryan is adjusting to the new normal and finding work-home balance, with the added stress of having to put on live shows from home.”

The rep added: “Between Live with Kelly and RyanAmerican IdolOn Air with Ryan Seacrest, and the Disney Family Singalong specials, he has been juggling three to four on-air jobs over the last few weeks and he’s in need of rest. So today he took a well-deserved day off.”
