Happy Birthday, Sam Smith

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, SAM SMITH: Last year on this date, Capitol's Sam Smith was celebrating his 21st birthday—just as "La La La," the Naughty Boy smash he co-wrote and sang, hit #1 in the U.K. Today he turns 22, just as his single "Stay With Me," the lead track from forthcoming album In the Lonely Hour (due out 6/17) blows up at Top 40 in the U.S., and Shazam picks it as one of its smashes of the summer. Meanwhile, Capitol has announced that Smith will perform at New York's legendary Apollo Theater on street date. What do you get the kid who's about to have everything? (5/19p)
