    Lady Gaga’s Record-Breaking Rio Show Has Us Wondering: Could the U.S. Ever Host a Concert That Big?

    Lady Gaga reportedly played to 2.5 million fans during her concert at Copacabana Beach in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, on Saturday night. It’s a hard-to-fathom crowd size, considering we’ve never seen anything like it for a concert in the United States.

    When it comes to free U.S. shows, some estimates put Garth Brooks’ 1997 concert in New York’s Central Park — nicknamed “Garthstock” — around 900,000 or even 1 million fans. (For non-concert crowds, the Chicago Cubs’ 2016 World Series celebration reportedly drew 5 million fans for a parade and rally — but that’s not a single-stage event.)

    On the new Billboard Pop Shop Podcast, Katie & Keith are talking about the positively massive show and whether it could ever be replicated here in the U.S. — like, are Los Angeles beaches even big enough for such a thing? And where would people park?!?

    Also on the show, we’ve got chart news on how Ghost scores its first No. 1 on the Billboard 200 albums chart — and brings hard rock back to No. 1 for the first time in four years. Plus, how Alex Warren’s “Ordinary” hits a new high on the Billboard Hot 100, climbing all the way to No. 2.
