02:05 like Cori LaRae having so much fun in her section
02:08 and Diddy being a total boss as Batman.
02:12 Musicians like Kyle told us their favorite Halloween track.

02:19 - It's probably one of 'em.
02:21 - And Teyana Taylor told us

03:58 and Christmas tree emoji and the hashtag Mariah season.
04:03 In the clip, a team of ghouls are heating a block of ice
04:05 to release Mariah before she hits her signature high note,
04:08 shattering the ice open.
04:10 - It's time!

04:19 Mariah's 1994 Christmas staple,
04:21 "All I Want for Christmas Is You,"

04:25 and has since ranked as the most popular holiday song
04:28 of all time on the Billboard Holiday 100.

05:07 We take you to that day in this week's Pop Culture Rewind.
05:10 (upbeat music)
05:13 The day was November 1st, 1997,
05:19 and after releasing their first album
05:21 with hits like "Wannabe" and "Say You'll Be There,"
05:24 Spice Girls dropped "Spice Up Your Life"
05:26 with "Spice World."
05:28 They performed the lead single at our 1997 BBMAs.

05:58 of the album last year,
06:00 with new versions of the project

06:04 ♪ Viva forever ♪
06:06 Viva forever, indeed.
06:07 ♪ I'll be waiting ♪
06:09 We'll have another huge moment for you next week
06:11 in our Top Culture Rewind.
06:12 (upbeat music)
06:15 - Fade is one of the biggest Latin artists out there.
06:22 If you don't know everything about him,
06:24 well, he's giving you five things you should.
06:27 (speaking in foreign language)
06:30 Let's go.
06:31 (upbeat music)
06:36 (speaking in foreign language)
06:41 (speaking in foreign language)
06:45 (speaking in foreign language)
06:49 (speaking in foreign language)
06:53 (speaking in foreign language)
06:57 (speaking in foreign language)
07:01 (speaking in foreign language)
07:25 (speaking in foreign language)
07:54 - That's today's show.
07:55 Before I let you go, I got something to say.
07:58 Yesterday, Billboard posted a tweet
07:59 congratulating Jungkook and Lotto
08:01 on the success of his hit "7" hitting a billion streams.
08:05 And although it didn't say all Kookie's success
08:07 was because of Lotto, some fans took it that way,
08:10 and it started a pandemonium.
08:13 And I just wanna say this.
08:14 I don't write our tweets on social media,
08:16 but just be nice to everyone.
08:18 A lot of the attacks directed at myself
08:20 and my coworkers were rude, mean,
08:22 and in some cases, racist.
08:25 And mostly because I have a bias,
08:27 which is what a lot of K-pop fans have.
08:29 I never even knew what a solo or anti was 'til yesterday.
08:33 And you can see that Billboard tweets
08:35 and my personal ones always support all the guys.
08:38 And for the record, Jungkook is my bias wrecker.
08:41 So leave me out of it.
08:42 Back in the day, you could have a fave member
08:44 of NSYNC and still love the group itself.
08:47 So as I will continue to be professional
08:49 and cover all things BTS,
08:51 let's continue to share the love of being ARMY.
08:54 I purple you all.
08:55 So let's all lead with love.
08:56 And speaking of love,
08:58 I know you all love the Billboard Music Awards.
09:00 And if you're confused by this year's new format,
09:02 don't worry, tomorrow we're gonna explain it all.
09:05 I'm Tetris Kelly, and this is Billboard News.
09:09 (upbeat music)
