The singer-songwriter played New York City's iconic Bowery Ballroom after selling the place out Tuesday ... and, ya gotta check out all the arrivals eager to watch the Beatles singer perform.
Robert De Niro and his baby mama Tiffany Chen led the charge -- though it looks like it was past their 1-year-old daughterGia's bedtime. While Robert and Tiffany made it a date night, Emma Stone chose to focus on family rather than her man ... bringing her mom instead.
Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr are getting back to where they once belonged ... onstage together in the UK!!!
The Beatles stars made their surprise reunion on Thursday night at the O2 Arena in London, all apart of McCartney's "Got Back" tour, which has gone across Europe and Latin America.
McCartney introduced his former bandmate as, "The one and only Mr. Ringo Starr!" Needless to say, the crowd went absolutely wild.
Barry Keoghan’s going from "Saltburn" to "Here Comes the Sun" -- 'cause Ringo Starr's passed him the drumsticks to play him in the upcoming 4-part Beatles film series!
The Irish actor's name has been attached to the project for months ... and Ringo basically confirmed the casting news, telling Entertainment Tonight he thought it was "great" that the Oscar-nominated star would be playing him in the Sam Mendes-directed movie series.
Ringo added that Barry’s already prepping for the role, saying, "I believe he’s somewhere taking drum lessons, and I hope not too many."

Deon introduces Paul as his "friend" to the crowd and shares a laugh with the singer ... telling the crowd he and PM smoked a little weed before the performance.
Elon Musk doesn't want to end up like John Lennon ... and he's paranoid one of his fans will try to kill him, just like the slain Beatles singer.
The Tesla honcho opened up at a recent shareholder meeting about precautions he's needed to take since his notoriety has skyrocketed in recent years -- more so than even before -- and EM claims that at least two "homicidal maniacs" have already attempted to take his life.
Elon says he's probably on someone's hit list because he's so famous ... and with the world getting "a little crazy these days" he says it's entirely possible someone tries to assassinate him ... a la Lennon.
Calling all music enthusiasts ... got deep pockets? If so, a signed copy of John Lennon and Yoko Ono's "Double Fantasy" album is up for grabs.
MomentsinTime.comhas listed this rare gem from a private collector -- and it can be all yours for $54,000.
Fun fact: Yoko's signature doesn't really affect the price. Her signed items don't fetch much on their own, so the value is all down to Lennon's signature.
Sean Ono Lennon -- John and Yoko Ono's only kid -- says he's cracked open the Duke of Sussex's memoir, a year after its release, and he was left underwhelmed by the tell-all, writing ... "My long awaited review of Prince Harry’s autobiography is two words. 'Spare Me.'"
As fans of the prince hit back at Sean's criticism in his comments, the musician doubled down, calling the prince "a buffoon" and an "idiot" in replies to various people online.
It took Paul McCartney 6 decades to respond to one of his many avid fans who professed undying love to him back in the '60s, but now she has a chance to finally meet The Beatles icon!
Paul posted a video Friday, which began with an old clip of a woman named Adrienne being interviewed by a journalist after the British rock band arrived in NYC in 1963 for their legendary first American trip.
Paul McCartney tardó 6 décadas en responderle a una de las muchas fans que le profesó amor eterno en los años 60, ¡y que ahora tiene la oportunidad de conocer finalmente al icono de The Beatles!
Paul publicó un video el viernes, que comenzó con un viejo clip de una mujer llamada Adrienne siendo entrevistada por un periodista después de que la banda de rock británica llegara a NYC en 1963 para su legendaria primera visita en Estados Unidos.
Los Beatles son el regalo que sigue dando, porque sus hijos están manteniendo el legado musical de sus padres asociándose y compartiendo algunas nuevas canciones.
John Lennon no se anduvo con rodeos a la hora de decir lo mucho que detestó la sesión de fotos de 1964 de los Beatles con Muhammad Ali... según el hombre que tomó esas icónicas imágenes.
El famoso fotógrafo de los Beatles -Harry Benson- habló sobre la tensión entre las leyendas mientras celebraba los 60 años de aquellas fotos, diciéndole a Fox News Digital que Ali no perdió el tiempo y cuestionó las capacidades musicales del cuarteto.
No solo golpeó a los Beatles donde más les dolía, sino que Ali también los midió, llamándolos "diminutos, pequeños, pequeños hombres" en comparación con su imponente figura.
Harry dice que Ali continuó asestando golpes de gracia a los egos de los Fab Four... afirmando que era más guapo que ellos -aunque eso se lo decía a todo el mundo- y confiaba plenamente en que John y compañía no le devolverían el golpe, porque él era el campeón.
Cuando la sesión terminó, los Beatles estallaron. Lennon dijo que todo el asunto había sido un error y acusó a Ali de hacerlos quedar mal.
Mientras Benson dice que su visión para el rodaje se hizo realidad, y él quedó feliz con el resultado, dice que los Beatles, incluidos los dos miembros supervivientes Paul McCartney y Ringo Starr, nunca lo han perdonado.
John Lennon pulled no punches about how much he detested the Beatles' 1964 knockout photo shoot with Muhammad Ali ... that's according to the guy who snapped those iconic images.
Famed Beatles photog Harry Benson spilled the tea on the tension between the legends while celebrating 60 years of snapping pics of the band, telling Fox News Digital ... Ali wasted no time throwing shade, telling the singers their music wasn't all that.
Not only did he hit the Beatles where it hurt by questioning their musical chops, but Ali also went on to size them up, calling them "tiny, small, little men" compared to his towering frame.
Adam Sandler's just like the rest of us ... turns out, not even he can keep his cool around Taylor Swift.
Speaking on SiriusXM's "Conan O'Brien Needs a Friend," Adam and host Conan discussed how 21st-century celebs didn't quite leave them fangirling like the ones from back in the day did -- but according to the actor ... one modern star broke that rule -- Tay Tay!!
Conan O’Brien Needs A Friend
Adam explained that he still gets "a little f***ing jumpy" around the singer cause of what she means to his teen daughters Sadie and Sunny ... and he doesn't want to risk blowing their chance to have an awesome experience by acting all awkward around TS.
In fact, it's like his comedy movie characters come to life when he's trying to get Taylor's attention ... 'cause he says he's super loud and excited!!
Conan totally got where Adam was coming from here, BTW ... adding TS was on a whole other level now with her superstardom reaching crazy heights and her Travis Kelce romance hitting headlines.
Adam went on to compare Swift's success to "Beatlemania" in the '60s ... adding she has so many smash hits, and there's not a word his kids don't know.
He's had plenty of opportunities to sing along with them, too ... last year, he took his daughters to Taylor's "Eras" tour in L.A., and they also hit up the "The Eras Tour: The Movie" premiere. So yeah, AS is a well-anointed Swifite via proxy, thanks to his kids.

Adam's definitely rocking the ultimate girl dad title, that's for damn sure!
Adam Sandler es como el resto de nosotros... resulta que ni siquiera él puede mantener la calma alrededor de Taylor Swift.
Hablando en SiriusXM "Conan O'Brien necesita un amigo", Adam y el anfitrión Conan discutieron cómo las celebridades del siglo 21 no los sorprendían como las de antaño, pero según el actor, una estrella moderna rompió esa regla... ¡Tay Tay!
Conan O’Brien Needs A Friend
Adam explicó que todavía se pone "un poco jodidamente nervioso" cerca de la cantante, por lo que ella significa para sus hijas adolescentes -Sadie y Sunny- y él no quiere correr el riesgo de arruinar su oportunidad de tener una experiencia impresionante actuando torpemente cerca de Taylor.
De hecho, es como si sus personajes de películas de comedia cobraran vida cuando está tratando de llamar la atención de Taylor, ¡porque dice que se vuelve muy torpe!
Conan entendió lo que Adam quería decir, añadiendo que Taylor estaba en un nivel completamente diferente ahora que su superestrellato a alcanzando alturas impensadas y su romance con Travis Kelce en los titulares.
Adam llegó a comparar el éxito de Swift con la "Beatlemania" en los años 60, añadiendo que tiene muchos éxitos y que no hay una palabra que sus hijos no se sepan.
Él ha tenido un montón de oportunidades para cantar junto a ellas. El año pasado llevó a sus hijas a la gira de Taylor "Eras" en Los Ángeles, y también asistió al "The Eras Tour: The Movie". Así que sí, Adam es todo un Swifite.

Adam se ha convertido en el mejor padre, ¡eso seguro!
