Grammy-winning pop superstar Doja Cat has announced a massive run of 2026 dates for her “Tour Ma Vie World Tour,” spanning Latin America, Europe, the U.K. and North America. The 2026 leg of the tour, promoted by Live Nation, follows previously announced 2025 stops across Australia, New Zealand and Asia later this fall and winter. The extensive world tour marks the artist’s largest-ever outing and her first time headlining in multiple international regions, including Latin America.

The 2026 tour is set to kick off in São Paulo, Brazil, at Suhai Music Hall, before heading to major cities including Buenos Aires, Mexico City, Dublin, London, Lisbon, Paris, Chicago, Denver, Vancouver, Los Angeles, Las Vegas, Miami and Toronto. The run will conclude with a headline performance at New York’s Madison Square Garden on Dec. 1, 2026.

The tour supports Doja Cat’s highly anticipated fifth studio album, Vie, which was released last week via Kemosabe Records/RCA Records. Alongside the album drop, the artist unveiled the music video for her new track, “Gorgeous.” Directed and shot by Bardia Zeinali in New York City, the video features appearances by high-profile models and creatives, including former Maxim cover star Irina Shayk, Yseult, Paloma Elsesser, Alex Consani, Amelia Gray, Ugbad, Ida Heiner, Mona Tougaard, Alek Wek and Karen Elson.

Doja Cat recently performed her single “Jealous Type” at the 2025 MTV Video Music Awards, featuring soft jazz saxophonist Kenny G. She first teased the song in her Summer ‘25 campaign with Marc Jacobs. Last year, she released her deluxe album Scarlet 2 CLAUDE, which included the chart-topping singles “Attention,” “Paint The Town Red” and “Agora Hills.” “Paint The Town Red” spent three weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, becoming the first rap song to reach the top spot in 2023. “Agora Hills” peaked at No. 7 on the Hot 100 and reached No. 1 on Top 40 Radio in 2024.

The album also produced three Billboard Hot 100 hit singles, including “Burning Blue,” “Is It a Crime?” featuring Kali Uchis, and “Sacrifice.”

Wu-Tang Clan’s Raekwon & Mobb Deep’s Havoc Announce Joint 30th Anniversary Tour Dates https://www.maxim.com/entertainment/wu-tang-clans-raekwon-mobb-deeps-havoc-announce-joint-30th-anniversary-tour-dates/ Thu, 14 Aug 2025 09:00:00 +0000 https://www.maxim.com/?p=268575

Thirty years after releasing two of classic New York hip-hop’s most influential albums, the Wu-Tang Clan’s Raekwon and Mobb Deep’s Havoc are teaming up for a joint tour to celebrate the anniversaries of their landmark 1995 records. The month-long U.S. trek will feature a single set with performances by both artists, commemorating Raekwon’s solo debut, Only Built 4 Cuban Linx…, and Mobb Deep’s breakthrough album, The Infamous.

(Live Nation)

Raekwon, a founding member of the Wu-Tang Clan, released his solo debut to widespread critical acclaim. Produced by The RZA and heavily featuring fellow Wu-Tang member Ghostface Killah, Cuban Linx is considered one of the greatest solo efforts by a Wu-Tang rapper. Debuting at No. 4 on the Billboard 200, it was later certified gold and ranks among the most beloved hip-hop releases of that era.

For Mobb Deep, The Infamous was a second chance after their 1993 debut, Juvenile Hell, was met with a lukewarm reception. The album, featuring raw and gritty rhymes from the late Prodigy, launched the rap duo to street stardom with classic bangers like “Shook Ones Pt. II” and “Survival of the Fittest,” debuting at No. 18 on the Billboard 200.

The joint old-school hip-hop tour kicks off in Portland, Oregon, on November 13 and concludes in Miami on December 15. Tickets go on sale on Friday, August 15, at 10 a.m. local time at LiveNation.com.

Beyoncé’s ‘Cowboy Carter’ Tour Is Officially The Highest-Grossing Country Tour Of All Time https://www.maxim.com/entertainment/beyonces-cowboy-carter-tour-is-officially-the-highest-grossing-country-tour-of-all-time/ Wed, 30 Jul 2025 09:00:00 +0000 https://www.maxim.com/?p=267170

Beyoncé’s “Cowboy Carter” world tour has officially been named the highest-grossing in country music. The tour, which concluded earlier this month, amassed more than $350 million in ticket sales across its 75 dates worldwide, according to figures released by Live Nation this week.

The staggering financial achievement underscores the immense cultural and economic power of the “Cowboy Carter” juggernaut, which saw the Houston-born superstar delve into country music roots. The tour drew sold-out crowds in major cities across North America, Europe and Asia, and averaged more than $4.6 million per show.

Released back in March, the Cowboy Carter album itself was also a critical and commercial triumph, debuting at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart and sparking widespread debate about inclusivity in country music. Bey’s previous “Renaissance” tour reportedly grossed $579 million, becoming the highest-grossing outing by a woman at that time, and helping her become the first American artist to have two separate tours gross over $400 million each, according to Uproxx.

But while Beyoncé’s worldwide Beyhive of devoted fans have led her to country music tour dominance, fellow global superstar Taylor Swift still holds the all-time concert gross record. Swift’s “Eras Tour,” which wrapped up in December 2024, became the first music tour in history to surpass a mind-boggling $2 billion in concert revenue.

Queens of the Stone Age have announced the Catacombs Tour, a limited run of intimate performances at historic North American theaters this fall. The 11-date stretch of shows begins on October 2 in Chicago and wraps up on November 21 in New Orleans after stops in Detroit, Philadelphia, Boston, New York, Toronto, Los Angeles and other major cities.

The Catacombs Tour was inspired by the acclaimed heavy rock outfit’s Alive in the Catacombs concert film, which was released earlier this month. Filmed and recorded in July 2024 in the ancient subterranean Catacombs of Paris, the film features intricately reimagined versions of songs spanning the QOTSA discography performed in a haunting and unique setting.

The upcoming tour will feature “all-new arrangements crafted specifically for the occasion,” according to a press release about the trek. The Josh Homme-fronted rockers will “draw upon the spirit of those sublime subterranean renditions and infuse it into reimagined versions that promise to twist the volume knob in both directions. Enhanced by assembled ensembles, the end result will be a precious few unique and intimate performances unlike any previous QOTSA tour.”

Check out the concert film’s trailer and QOTSA 2025 North American tour dates below.
