Miley Cyrus is making good use of her time at home. She has started an online show called Bright Minded that she said she created to offer hope and escapism, optimism and a way to stay connected while we all try to social distance. 

Vanessa Hudgens has issued an apology after she made 'insensitive' comments about the coronavirus to fans while on Instagram Live. 

There are so many people that are giving back in tremendous ways. Bebe Rexha has been reaching out to fans who are now out of work, offering them money so they can get food. 

Cardi B made a video about the coronavirus to post to her fans explaining that she is scared about everything going on -  a DJ called iMarkkeyz who is known for mixing memes into songs and decided to turn Cardi B into one of his tracks- and the song has become a viral hit.

Cardi has been really supportive of the song, posting about its success on her socials but also posted a screenshot on her Instagram with a caption explaining that she’d love to get some of the money that is being made from the song.

The iHeartRadio Secret Session with Niall Horan originally set to take place in Toronto next week has been postponed indefinitely for public health safety reasons. 

iHeartRadio Canada released a statement saying “The health and safety of our listeners, staff and talent is always our top priority. More details will be released at a later date.” Niall himself went to Instagram stories to apologize to fans for having to cancel so many upcoming events to help promote his album Heartbreak Weather, which is scheduled for release March 13.

Billie Eilish is taking back control against people who are shaming her for her body. She kicked off her tour with a new tour video that plays during the show, showing her take off her oversized shirt with a voice over in the background, hitting back at the critics. 

Nina Dobrev revealed to E News that Taylor Swift was almost a guest star on the show The Vampire Diaries. She said they heard Taylor was a fan of the show so the producers were planning on writing a role for her but it didn’t end up working out with her schedule. 

It's Thursday so we have to celebrate with a little Throwback! and this is a significant week because 14 years ago the masterpiece that is the High School Musical Soundtrack hit number 1 on the Billboard 200!

Niall Horan will be coming to Toronto for the #iHeartRadioSecretSession! As revealed yesterday on iheartradio.ca, the Secret Session will be happening March 19th at a top secret location. 

Fans have been expressing great concern for Post Malone’s health after videos were going around online of him on stage looking like he was really out of it. Posty addressed these concerns when at a recent show.

Rihanna just opened her own Fenty Beauty Tiktok House. 

Coronavirus continues to impact many music events around the world. It was announced that Ultra Music Festival, and SXSW are cancelled due to concerns of bringing together such large groups of people - and there is word that Coachella could be the next event to be shut down.

Poor ticket sales have forced Justin Bieber to downsize eight shows on his upcoming Changes Tour.
