It certainly is a good week for The Weeknd and I am sure the weekend is going to be just as good! According to the Guinness World Records, the singer is the most popular musician on the planet. Wow, that’s amazing! No wonder he is at the top of PeopleWorld’s hot list today.

Not only has The Weeknd racked up 11.4 million listeners on Spotify, but he is also the first artist to reach 100 million listeners a month on the music streaming service. Not only that, but he has beaten Taylor Swift as the world’s most popular artist. What more could you want?!!

Next up today is Romy Mars - yes, Romy Mars. Before you exclaim, ‘who is she?’ Let me enlighten you. She is the daughter of Sofia Coppola (yes the famous Coppola family) and musician Thomas Mara.

Romy is on our hot list today as her now-deleted TokTok has gone viral. She went on there to discuss being grounded and sends up what it is like to be a ‘nepo kid’ by saying: “Make a vodka sauce pasta with me because I’m grounded, because I tried to charter a helicopter from New York to Maryland on my dad’s credit card because I wanted to have dinner with my camp friend.”

You may initially assume she is a ‘not’ for this behaviour, but it is clearly a ‘send up’ and hilarious at that. With her Coppola genes, it is no surprise that her TikTok has gone viral. Expect to read a lot more about Romy Mars in the near future!

Last up today is Nicolas Cage and of course, related to Romy Mars. He is the cousin to Sofia and nephew to the acclaimed director Francis Ford Coppola. Nicolas is not on our hot list for this but because the final trailer for his horror-comedy Renfield has been released.

Nicolas plays the role of Dracula and the film is set to be released in cinemas on April 14. I am sure he is going to be incredible in the role!

So from our hots to our not so hots…

Oh dear… Brooklyn Beckham, you do appear to be on our not so hot list again. And for what I hear you ask? Well, he has only gone and got a tattoo of his wife Nicola Peltz on his arm. Some might say this is a sweet tribute to the wife he adores! However, I would definitely say no it isn't and it is far too much!!

Next on our not so hot list is Wolfgang Porsche. The billionaire has reportedly filed for divorce from his wife ‘due to her dementia.’ Although it is said that he has struggled to live with her because of behavioural changes, what happened to the ‘in sickness and in health’ part?

Last up today is Boris Johnson. ‘Partygate’ is rumbling on as he insists that certain events were ‘essential.’ Yes, Boris, you try telling the rest of the general public who had to adhere to government guidelines.
