Aaron Rodgers Reacts To Being Called Sensitive
Aaron Rodgers is easily one of the best quarterbacks to ever play the game and while his Super Bowl totals might not reflect that, you can’t deny his talent. Over the summer, Rodgers was in a holdout with the Packers as he demanded to be traded. Eventually, the whole thing blew over and Rodgers restructured his contract so that he could play with the Packers for at least one more season. The whole thing had fans rolling their eyes and calling Rodgers a bit of a drama queen.
After starting the season 2-1, the Packers are looking a lot better right now, and Rodgers seems to be back in his groove. According to The Athletic, Rodgers was even asked about being labeled “sensitive” by fans, and as you will see, the quarterback had an interesting response. Simply put, he actually agrees with the assessment.

“I think the term ‘sensitive’ has always been used in a derogatory sense, and because of that, I didn’t embrace it,” Rodgers said. “I am a sensitive person. I have feelings. I am empathetic. So I embrace those parts of me. I don’t like the narrative that spins it in a direction that I don’t like with respect to things that I feel like are part of my character.”
Rodgers had a terrible outing against the New Orleans Saints in Week 1, however, since that time, he has been impressive against the Detroit Lions and the San Francisco 49ers. At this point, the Packers are right back where they should be, at the top of the NFC North standings. While their QB might be sensitive, he is still elite at his position.

Cardi B Explains Why She Looks So “Snatched” In Post-Birth Photos
Cardi B is already back at work, making multiple appearances at Paris Fashion Week just a few weeks after giving birth to her second child with Offset. In the first paparazzi pictures of her since giving birth, Cardi looked to have gotten back to her pre-pregnancy weight, which seems pretty unbelievable considering it’s really only been a couple of weeks. With all of the questions she’s been getting about surgical procedures and workout tips, Cardi decided to clear the air on why she looks the way she does, chalking it all up to the way she poses in photos.

“People have been giving me amazing compliments on my body, I think it’s because, right now, I’ve got some amazing hips due to my gorgeous son ’cause he was sitting so low. You know, when your baby’s low, your hips spread,” said Cardi. “But everybody’s just like, ‘Cardi, you’re so snatched!’ What did you do? You did lipo, you had a tummy tuck?’ You cannot do surgery after you give birth, especially me because I lost so much blood, guys, one day, I’ma tell you guys about my crazy delivery. But anyways, yes I look snatched especially when I take these paparazzi pictures and I’m like, *angles herself to the side*, but I’m really like this, *shows a different angle, looking slightly less snatched*. You know, I do be real with you guys,” she said while rubbing her belly.
Cardi says that she still has loose skin and a “little pouchy pouch,” as well as some extra back fat. However, she’s not stressing over the way she looks. She’s encouraging women to take their time getting their pre-baby bodies back, noting that it’s important to be patient.

Judge Orders G-Eazy To Stay Away From Alleged Assault Victims After NYC Bar Fight
G-Eazy may have just released his new album, These Things Happen Too, but he’s got some legal matters to take care of before he can get down to celebrating. Back in September, the rapper was arrested following a bar brawl, and according to TMZ, a judge has now ordered him to “stay away” from his alleged victims.
The gossip site caught up with the “Tumblr Girls” singer outside a New York courtroom early this morning wearing an all black outfit, but he was in no mood to chat, completely ignoring the cameraman while being bombarded with questions.
Apparently, G-Eazy was released without bail after facing a misdemeanour assault charge for allegedly punching a man in the head while partying at the Standard Hotel’s Boom Boom Room.
TMZ reports that the 32-year-old has been ordered to stay away from the person he punched, as well as another man who claims that G-Eazy’s entourage smashed a glass bottle over his head during the NYC altercation.
As it turns out, the person hit with the bottle was Daniel Chetrit, who is allegedly friends with the Kardashian-Jenner crew, and belongs to the family that once owned the Chelsea Hotel.
The Oakland native is expected to make another appearance in court next month, but until then, he’s expected to be on his best behaviour if he heads out for another night on the town, especially if he sees Chetrit around.

Claressa Shields Challenges Jake Paul To A Fight
Claressa Shields is arguably the greatest female boxer of all time and after winning everything there is to accomplish in the sport, she has gone to the MMA world. Despite this, Shields is still entertaining boxing matches and was recently asked about potentially being on the undercard for a Jake Paul fight.
As you can see in the clip below, Shields was not interested in such a thing, and even stated that she would fight Paul if she had to. She firmly believes she can defeat the former YouTube star, and she even went on to tell TMZ that if they ever got in the ring together, she would hurt him without question.
“I wasn’t talking s**t about Jake Paul yesterday. What I was speaking was facts. Jake Paul gets inside a boxing ring with me, he’s getting his ass whooped,” Shields said. “I bet you Jake Paul would get hurt, he probably get dropped, he would have a newfound respect for me if we spar or fight. I’m not calling Jake Paul out because I know how the world looks at women fighting men, they look at it like ‘oh no, ew’ but I spar men daily and that’s the truth.”
This is something Jake would never do, although it would certainly be interesting to watch. Shields is an expert at her craft, while Jake is still learning, so there is no doubt that Shields would have a technical advantage.
At this point though, such a fight is simply a pipe dream, so it’s better to focus on other potential matchups, like Paul vs. Tommy Fury.

Joe Rogan Called Out For Suggesting Joe Biden Got A Fake COVID-19 Booster
Joe Rogan is back at it again, pushing dangerous conspiracy theories pertaining to the COVID-19 pandemic. Previously, the self-described “fucking moron” encouraged young, healthy people to not get the vaccine, using his major podcast platform to share his take. He later walked back those comments by belittling himself, and then caught COVID a few weeks later. Now, the UFC commentator is back, making headlines after suggesting that President Joe Biden pretended to get a booster shot on live television this week, pushing a theory that he wasn’t actually injected with Pfizer, Moderna, or Johnson & Johnson.
Speaking with guest Mike Baker on the September 30 episode of his podcast, Joe Rogan suggested that Biden didn’t get a real booster shot, and Baker compared the act of getting vaccinated on television to “performance art.” Then, Rogan shared a bunch of theories he has on why Biden didn’t get the actual booster.

“I think if they were gonna give him a booster shot, the last thing they would do is give it to him live on television,” said Rogan. “What if he dies? What if he blacks out? What if he, like, gets it and faints? Because people have had very bad reactions, like, in the moment for whatever reason.”
Rogan is facing a lot of backlash for these comments, but they shouldn’t come as a surprise to anybody. At this point, Rogan has proven himself to be a pretty terrible person to turn to for COVID information.

Travis Scott & Kim Jones Speak On Their Friendship & Dior Collaboration In New Interview
It’s no secret that Travis Scott is what one might call a (Cactus) Jack of all trades. Over the past decade, the Houston native has collaborated with dozens of other artists, as well as brands like Nike, McDonald’s, Fortnite, and Dior.
Recently, it was announced that Scott would be gracing the cover of AnOther Magazine’s Autumn/Winter 2021 cover, wearing clothes that he designed with the help of Kim Jones, the current creative director of Dior Homme.
The two visionary minds had a chat with the magazine about their friendship, and what it’s been like to work together on a Cactus Jack x Dior collaboration.
“I have always collaborated with artists. This time I said to myself, why not a musician?” Jones told AnOther.
“Creating is a collective effort and, let’s be honest, a creative director is surrounded by a whole team of creatives. You can’t accomplish your ambitions for a house like this if you’re doing it alone. It’s not about talent or celebrity, but if someone produces something I find cool, I want to interact with him.”
Scott first crossed paths with the designer six years ago, when Jones was heading the menswear collection at Louis Vuitton. Over the years they’ve worked together on several projects, with the most recent being the Spring/Summer 2022 Cactus Jack Dior runway show.
“He is such an inspiration. I was a fan even when I was in college, so it’s crazy to be working with him. Going to the atelier and watching things being sewn and made by hand, it was insane,” the “SICKO MODE” rapper said of Jones.
The London native then went on to explain that this is the first time that a luxury house has invited a rapper to really be involved in every step of the creative process; usually musicians just wind up on a mood board, or sitting front row at a show.
“Travis knew exactly what he wanted. He understands what young people want, knows how to appeal to them. He also knows what the brand is about. We wanted it to be Dior with Travis’s element on top.”
Are there any other rappers that you’d like to see create a collection with a luxury house? Let us know in the comments.
