Ed Sheeran & Elton John Highlight International Holiday Hits on Global Charts
SZA scores the week’s highest debut on the Dec. 18-dated Billboard Global 200 as “I Hate U” arrives at No. 11. But Ed Sheeran and Elton John take top honors among new entries on the Billboard Global Excl. U.S. survey, dashing in at No. 10 with “Merry Christmas.” The team-up, released Dec. 3, drew 29 million streams and sold 42,300 downloads worldwide in its first week (ending Dec. 9), according to MRC Data. The song’s streams break down to 69% (20.1 million) from audio platforms and 31% (8.9 million) from video services, largely thanks to its festive official video that also premiered Dec. 3. A 31% share might seem small for a song’s video streams, but it’s a rare high mark among holiday titles that mostly live on audio services, many of which predate the ’80s-era breakout of videos.

These Party Pyjamas Are Just What We Need for Christmas 2021
While our love for loungewear and comfy PJs continues, we’re all turning our attention to the styles we can wear on heavy rotation outside of the house, too. The brand Sleeper was founded in 2014 by former fashion editors Kate Zubarieva and Asya Varetsa, who wanted to make luxurious nightwear that you can wear at home or even to a party. The result is über-glamorous pyjama sets which have feather trims on the hems of the trousers and the shirt. These Sleeper sets were particularly popular last festive season when parties were at home over Zoom, but the most sought-after party look has continued well into 2021. And we couldn’t be happier. Listed as one of the most popular items on Net-a-Porter right now, the pyjama sets have been yo-yoing in and out of stock ...
25 Wildest-Dream Gifts on My Fantasy Christmas Wish List
Of course, what you actually want for Christmas might not be the thing you tell them. While I always default to candles and skincare, I would never dream of telling my mum that the candle I would really like costs £145 (more on that later). This got me thinking—what would my no-holds-barred, wildest-dreams Christmas wish list look like? I decided to find out. Over the last few weeks, I’ve been making a fantasy list of gifts ideas for women that would make me speechless on 25 December. It’s indulgent—and it’s never going to happen. Still, I had fun assembling it, and I think you’re going to have fun looking at it, too. For a dose of reality, I’ve included a handful of pieces that cost under £100, too, but they are in no way less special. In fact, some are up there amongst my tippy...
