One of the year's most acclaimed pop albums got its first arena-sized workout as Charli XCX kicked off her much-anticipated tour with Troye Sivan.

Sivan, the 29-year-old Aussie pop singer, kicked things off performing alongside a team of six male dancers as they paced their way through highly choreographed, playfully innuendo-laden dance routines on songs like "Got Me Started" and "My My My!"

In his rustic return, Shawn Mendes has shrugged off pop bombast in favor of guitar strums and unguarded vocals — and “Nobody Knows,” a swaying new anthem that allows Mendes’ upper register to hoot, holler and fully bloom, sounds like the most naturally rendered track released so far from his upcoming album.

Troye Sivan has hit back at an anonymous online gossip story that claimed his joint US tour with Charli XCX is suffering from poor ticket sales. Sivan, 29, and XCX, 32, recently kicked off their arena tour in Detroit.
