Month: December 2021

Since she launched SKIMS back in 2018, 41-year-old Kim Kardashian has found massive success with her shapewear brand, consistently expanding and releasing new and exciting products for consumers over the last four years. She recently dipped her toes into the world of luxury by teaming up with Fendi, but now, the reality star seems to be facing online criticism for some of her products. 

In a video that’s been getting attention online, a TikTok user calls the mother of four out for the “troubling” sizing of the thongs she received as a holiday gift and even asked Kardashian to be more transparent about what size she wears in her own SKIMS pieces.

“Now, Kim… Kim Kardashian, we’re gonna need to have a f*cking conversation, because I got SKIMS for Christmas, and let me just show you what I got,” the creator said, holding up a couple of boxes from the socialite’s shapewear brand. 

“And let me talk about the sizing,” she added. “Because the sizing is what’s really troubling me. This is the Core Control Solutionwear, and this – this is a LARGE/EXTRA LARGE,” the woman continued, repeating herself for added emphasis while holding up a tiny piece of fabric that doesn’t look to be the appropriate size as labelled whatsoever.

The creator told viewers that the fabric does not stretch, even trying to pull it herself to prove her point. “When I tell you I couldn’t even get this past up my thigh… And it’s crazy to me, because, with the Kardashians, it’s like, you guys buy your bodies, right? Y’know what I’m saying, so it’s like, you bought that ass, and you bought them t*tties, so you know DAMN well this ain’t gonna do anything.”

“So my question, to Kim Kardashian, is, what size are you wearing in your line?! Because you are NOT wearing a large/extra large. And I understand that the thighs might not match, but there’s no way you’re getting your ass in this,” she concluded.

This isn’t the only backlash that the California native has faced regarding SKIMS as of late. Just a few days ago, trolls began calling her out for how similar she looks to “Love On Top” singer Beyonce in some of her new campaign shots – read more about that here.

The holiday season is Mariah Carey’s time to shine, and this year she’s chosen to celebrate while wearing a glamorous sequin gown in a hot tub, once again. As Page Six Style reports, the 52-year-old vocalist has made a tradition of posting up in a designer dress around Christmas while soaking in some sort of body of water. 

“#GetFestive #StayFestive,” the mother of two wrote earlier this week. “Love you forever Lambily! Thank you to everyone who helps make these miracles happen. #1 again!!!” In case you missed it, the cause for celebration was the New York native’s 1994 hit “All I Want For Christmas Is You” spending another week at #1 on Billboard’s Hot 100 chart.

This year, Carey opted to wear a black Louis Vuitton look, paired with some Cyclone sunglasses that have an $855 price tag. “Only Mariah can wear a dress in the pool and look flawless in it,” one fan commented on the R&B star’s post. “Many more years to come at #1” another person affirmed for the singer.

Page Six Style notes that back in January of 2020, the “Obsessed” recording artist shared a similar photo, but instead of surrounding by a snowy background, she had palm trees and the gorgeous beaches of the Dominican Republic behind her as she smiled for the camera, arms spread wide with joy. In 2017, a similar concept was also shared on her social media pages.

Elsewhere in the news, Carey has made headlines by addressing suggestions that she and Beyonce should go head-to-head on Verzuz, with the east coast native saying she’d be “disrespecting” herself by agreeing to compete with Queen B – read more about that here.

Following news of her marriage ending, Meagan Good is looking back on 2021 and feeling grateful. On New Years Eve, the Think Like A Man star dropped off an Instagram photo dump that sees her wearing a bright green floral wrap with even more flowers placed in her long, flowing hair.

“2021.. You brought me the highest, life-changing affirming highs, and the lowest, gut-wrenching soul-breaking lows,” the captions reads. “Although I’m still grieving, I’m also in glorious awe and thankfulness to you God… 2021, all endings are also beginnings, so goodbye m’dear,” the 40-year-old continued. “2022, can’t wait to see what the beginnings of this next act of life brings. Lord, I trust you.”

Good has turned comments off on her page, but the double taps have been pouring in since she uploaded the series of stunning snapshots. The post before her most recent arrival was she and her husband, film producer DeVon Franklin’s separation announcement. “After much prayer and consideration we have decided to go into our futures separately but forever connected,” she told her followers. 

The photo sees the former couple sitting in a beautiful, green oasis, holding one another. “We celebrate almost a decade of marriage together and a love that is eternal. There’s no one at fault, we believe this is the next best chapter in the evolution of our love. We are incredibly grateful for the life-changing years we’ve spent together as husband and wife. We are also extremely thankful to God for the testimony being created inside us both and for blessing our lives with each other.”

After the news broke, a source shared with PEOPLE that the star’s separation was “a long time coming,” adding that “they just haven’t been spending a lot of time together this past year.”

Nicki Minaj has had a career unlike anyone else, and a recent Instagram post from Fatale director Deon Taylor has fans speculating that we may just see some of the rap star’s biggest highlights played out in a forthcoming documentary or docuseries. As Uproxx reports, the Chicago native dropped off a telling Instagram post that has people talking about the possibilities of the project they’re working on. 

“Wait, everything just got different!!” Taylor captioned a selfie that sees him, the “Barbie Dreams” rapper, philanthropist Robert F. Smith, producer Roxanne Avent, and president of Quality Control, Brian Sher all smiling for the camera. “Wait till I tell you… I’m gone,” the director concluded, followed by the eyes emoji and a row of flames.

Sher also posted the photo to his page, captioning it “here goes…” before tagging Minaj. While the posts don’t give us a lot of direct information, it’s enough for us to piece together that the Meet the Blacks creator and the mother of one have something major in store for us, and it wouldn’t be a shocker to find out that it’s the documentary/HBO docuseries that was “announced back in 2022.”

The 39-year-old hasn’t commented on the project on socials herself, but we would certainly love to see HBO tell her story in the same way they have for other industry legends like the late DMX and Juice Wrld in more recent releases.

In other news, the Trinidadian rapper has been making headlines for the gorgeous Gucci gifts that she surprised The Real Housewives of Potomac stars with – read more about that here.

While it may seem like ancient history given the fact that it’s New Year Eve, last year in 2020 marked the 30th anniversary of the Air Jordan 5. To mark this occasion, Jordan Brand came through with a ton of great new offerings, and with 2022 on the horizon, it seems like Jumpman is paying no mind to anniversaries. On the whole, they just want to release some cool shoes.

According to the Instagram sneaker insider @zsneakerheadz, the Air Jordan 5 will get a dope new “Concord” offering next year. As you can see in the Photoshop rendering, the upper of the sneaker will be made with white leather, all while purple appears on the midsole, tongue, and back heel. The midsole is mostly encased in black, and on the tongue, we have the Jordan 5’s signature silver 3M tongue.

At this time, fans can expect the Air Jordan 5 “Concord” to be released in July of next year for a price of $200 USD. It remains to be seen what the exact release date will be, so keep it locked to HNHH as we will be sure to bring you all of the latest updates. As always, tell us what you think of the shoe, in the comments below.

Travis Scott is making his return to social media. Following a nearly two-month-long break, the 30-year-old has shared his first Instagram post – a black and white photo of his side profile with a short and sweet caption, reading, “always” followed by a heart emoji.

Several noteworthy names have stopped by the comment section to show love to the Houston native, who has spent the last few weeks facing countless lawsuits and constant backlash from all around the world.

The “90210” rapper’s baby mama Kylie Jenner delivered two heart emojis, giving support to her baby daddy during this confusing time. The Cactus Jack account also shared a heart emoji, while Marc Jacobs wrote “Happy New Year.”

Marc may be showing Scott some love, while Dior – a brand with who he frequently collaborated prior to the Astroworld tragedy – has not been so kind. Just a few days ago it was announced that they’ve “indefinitely” postponed their collab with the soon-to-be father of two, meaning we won’t see the garments he designed anytime soon, if at all. Despite this, designer Kim Jones still shared some emojis in the comments.

W Magazine, who had scheduled Jenner and her partner to appear on the cover of a recent issue, also found themselves scrambling following the crowd surge that took place at the event founded by the recording artist, rushing to get rid of any evidence that the photo shoot had taken place. Unfortunately for them alleged footage of the cover leaked, prompting plenty of commentary from social media users.

Roddy Ricch, Sheck Wes, Adin Ross, and other friends also showed love to Scott’s new post, which has earned nearly one million likes in under an hour. Scott’s return to the internet follows rumours that he’ll make his return to his stage at Rolling Loud, as well as speculation that Jenner has already given birth to their baby – read more about that here.

We have been seeing a ton of Jumpman teasers for next Fall as of late, and many of them have been coming from @zsneakerheadz on Instagram. They always seem to have all of the insight on what’s coming next year, and based on their most recent posts, it is clear that 2022 is going to be a phenomenal. This is especially true for all of the Air Jordan 4 fans out there, as this silhouette is going to be getting a plethora of dope offerings.

One such model is the “Olive Canvas” colorway, which can be found below thanks a Photoshop rendering. As you can see, the entire upper is going to be covered in an olive green, all while the top part of the shoe contains that nice canvas material. Some red is placed on the laces to add a pop of color, and overall, it is a very solid shoe from Jordan Brand.

For now, it is being reported that this shoe will drop in September of next year for a price of $210 USD. The exact release date has not yet been made official, so stay tuned to HNHH as we will be sure to bring you all of the latest news and updates from around the sneaker world. In the meantime, let us know what you think, in the comments section below.

On December 18th, 28-year-old Los Angeles rapper Drakeo the Ruler was murdered at his hometown’s Once Upon A Time music festival. Authorities immediately launched an investigation following the stabbing that took Drakeo’s life, but according to TMZ, they’ve hit a “wall of silence” due to a lack of cooperation from witnesses.

Law enforcement sources have told the outlet that they’re “mostly relying on surveillance cellphone footage to crack the case,” seeing as those who saw firsthand what happened are reportedly refusing to talk, making it “hard/next to impossible to nab the culprits.”

It’s been noted that local detectives are considering the possibility that the Slim 400 murder “might be connected to Drakeo’s demise,” considering that Los Angeles has been seeing an increased amount of gang violence recently. “Cops are well aware of the chance for retaliation,” TMZ explained.

Following the “Go Crazy” rapper’s untimely passing, hundreds of his fans and loved ones gathered at a candlelight vigil in his honour, commemorating his contributions to the world of Los Angeles rap and beyond.

Countless heartfelt tributes to Drakeo also poured in on social media, with names like Jim Jones, Snoop Dogg, and Wiz Khalifa all taking the opportunity to urge other rappers to keep themselves safe, while promoting messages of peace and love in the hip-hop community.

“As entertainers let’s try some shit next year. Minding our own business,” the “On My Level” rapper tweeted earlier this month. “Not [disrespecting] each other’s family, dead homies, or area they come from. Stop using someone else’s significant other as a one up to the other person. Actually showing the same love you expect to get.”

He also added that he knows that these things may not be a “direct cause of violence,” but he thinks that “[changing them] could help.”

Everyone knows that the Ben Simmons saga in Philadelphia will be coming to an end soon. The Sixers star has not played a single game for the team this season, and he has made it clear on numerous occasions that he wants to be traded elsewhere. In the meantime, the Sixers are fighting for their lives in the Eastern Conference as Joel Embiid tries to carry a roster that is very clearly shorthanded.

As we head into the New Year, the trade deadline is quickly approaching, and many are curious as to whether or not the Sixers are actually going to do anything. In a report from John Hollinger of The Athletic, it was revealed that many around the league believe the Sixers would prefer to get this over with, which means a February trade could very well be imminent.

Per The Athletic:

“Despite the Sixers’ bluster to the contrary, the consensus opinion around the league remains that Philadelphia is more likely to act at the trade deadline than carry this all the way through ’til next summer, so as to avoid punting on a year of Joel Embiid’s prime. The counterargument is that the Sixers, as presently constituted, have been unimpressive enough that it might not hurt much to wait.”

Regardless, Sixers fans should not get overly excited just yet. This is one of those things that can go south very quickly, especially if the Sixers ask for too much in negotiations.

The death of Betty White has left many of us in a sombre mood today.

Producers and directors Steve Boettcher and Mike Trinklein released a statement with more information regarding the movie, saying, “our hearts mourn today with the passing of Betty White. During the many years we worked with her, we developed a great love and admiration for Betty as a person, and as an accomplished entertainer.”

“We are thankful for the many decades of delight she brought to everyone. Betty always said she was the ‘luckiest broad on two feet’ to have had a career as long as she did. And honestly, we were the lucky ones to have had her for so long. We will go forward with our plans to show the film on January 17 in hopes our film will provide a way for all who loved her to celebrate her life—and experience what made her such a national treasure.”

Names like Clint Eastwood, Jay Leno, Jimmy Kimmel, Morgan Freeman, Tina Fey, Ryan Reynolds, and Carol Burnett all appear in the upcoming release. Check out the trailer for Boettcher and Trinklein’s Betty White documentary below. RIP.
