Julius Randle became one of the most high-profile victims of a new TikTok prank. In a video filmed by his wife Kendra, Randle very slowly sits up after being hit with the question “isn’t it crazy how Taylor Swift put Travis Kelce on the map?” Randle looks at his wife in confusion before replying. “No one knew who Travis Kelce was? Are you fucking crazy? She didn’t put that n-gga on the map. Every football fan in the world and a lot of people outside of football [knew who Travis Kelce was]. He had his own TV show E!.”
The “Taylor Swift put Travis Kelce on the map” prank has been all over TikTok in recent days. The general premise is women asking men in their life about Taylor Swift “putting Travis Kelce on the map”. The reactions range from confusion to upset to genuine anger. While it’s all in good fun, some of the reactions are worrying. Sports is seen one as one of the major contributors to domestic violence and safe to say, that some of the TikToks can get pretty scary.
Meanwhile, sources have told Front Office Sports that Taylor Swift is expected to attend the Chiefs road game against the New York Jets this Sunday. Last week, Swift’s presence at Arrowhead Stadium helped make Chiefs-Bears the most-watched game of the weekend. In more personal boons for Kelce, his podcast is currently #1 on the Apple charts. Additionally, he received over 300,000 new Instagram followers this week.
Furthermore, “Traylor” has now all but been confirmed. Swift and Kelce have been spotted engaging in some light PDA following the Chiefs game on Sunday night. Swift was seen with her arm around Kelce during a private team party at Prime Social in Kansas City. Kelce reportedly rented out the entire rooftop bar to party it up with friends, family, and teammates. Get ready for your Sunday football enjoyment to involve a lot more Traylor content once again this week.
Cardi B is an artist known for her eccentric personality inside and outside the music. Whether she’s being interviewed by Jimmy Fallon or by niche music journalist Nardwuar, clips from the interactions often go viral. People gravitate towards her no-filter authenticity, which is humorous and engaging. During her recent appearance on Hot Ones, host Sean Evans saw this firsthand and discovered some previously unknown things about her.
Viewers have praised Sean for his interview skills, and Cardi even complimented him at the end of the interview. For many viewers, this interview was the perfect mix of entertaining and informative. Even her die-hard fans commented about learning something new about her during it. In this list, we’ve gathered five things that stuck out most during Cardi’s time on “the show with hot questions and even hotter wings.”
She Didn’t Know If “Bongos” Would Be A Hit
Cardi B is no stranger to songs that are immensely successful, but even she can’t predict if the same level of success will happen every time. Upon hearing the beat of the song for the first time, she just knew it made her want to dance. She played the completed version for her husband, fellow rapper Offset, and he gave it his co-sign. Cardi also knew the music video for the song had to match the tropical party feeling it gave her and wanted this feeling to be accented by luxury. They brought designer Harris Reed in to create several hats that displayed the luxurious essence Cardi wanted, and she praised how his big and bold designs lined up with her vision excellently.
Cardi B Prefers To Make “Fun” Music

Many of Cardi B’s chart-topping hits feature her on an upbeat instrumental where she discusses having a good time or takes pride in her many abilities and wants as a woman. However, tracks like “Get Up 10” from her debut album Invasion of Privacy are far from this. Many of her listeners have asked why she does not make similar music. They believe it truly showcases her abilities as a rapper and shows a vulnerable side to her personality. In this interview, she says she doesn’t because the masses may not relate to her pain and struggle. Her preference is to have a track like that open the album and then let the rest of the album be about having fun.
She Hates Doing Clean Versions Of Songs

Like most people, Cardi B is not a fan of the clean version of songs. A sense of loss comes with censoring lyrics, which can sometimes throw off an entire bar. Cardi called it “annoying,” citing the clean lyrics she had to say as “corny” and comparing them to Kidz Bop music. Rappers often have to censor themselves when performing songs on television, although sometimes, something may slip out in the heat of the moment. In some cases, artists will purposely not edit themselves because they believe it compromises their creativity. The fact she admitted she doesn’t like it but has to so her music can reach the masses is two sides of one coin for an artist of her status.
Cardi B Doesn’t Believe In Aliens

Cardi B has the type of personality where she can give her feedback on any topic and have something interesting or funny to say about it. Sean Evans cited how Cardi said she wanted more people to ask her about current events, so he decided to question her about one of the most popular recent topics in the news today: aliens. “I don’t believe the aliens are real,” she said. “If aliens are real…and they’re smarter than us…why haven’t they invaded us?” Cardi believes they would want to control humans simply because we are power-hungry, and they know they could overtake us if they wanted to.
She Is A Big Fan Of American History

Deep knowledge and interest in American history is something sometimes associated with underground rappers or legacy artists but Cardi B’s interest in it was surprising to many viewers. She segued into the topic after Sean asked her about her interview with David Letterman and shared that visiting Franklin D. Roosevelt’s house with him was her favorite memory. She beamed excitedly about how surreal it felt to be in the same room where FDR and Winston Churchill discussed the nuclear bomb.
“Anybody that loves and knows me knows I love FDR. And I love Eleanor Roosevelt,” she shared. While watching the Hot Ones interview, it’s clear there were some timelapse edits as Cardi shared multiple facts about the former President and his wife. She shared that war fascinates her and prefers learning about World War II more than World War I.

It’s no secret that hip-hop is primarily a male-dominated world, but in 2023, it’s been the women who have really held things down. Several new faces have quickly emerged as favourites in the genre this year, including names like Ice Spice and Sexyy Red. Both women’s catapult into the spotlight has been somewhat meteoric, but they’ve handled it with as much grace (and attitude) as was necessary. For her part, Spice has been facing accusations of being a one-hit wonder and industry plant since her career first began. Of course, she’s putting in plenty of work to combat those rumours.
She’s made strong connections with heavy hitters such as Nicki Minaj and Taylor Swift already, but that doesn’t mean everyone is on the 23-year-old’s side. In particular, she’s been butting heads with Atlanta-based superstar Latto since the 777 hitmaker said that she wasn’t familiar with Spice’s viral TikTok song during a red-carpet interview. They’ve never faced off directly, but the redhead has made it abundantly clear that she’s seen Latto taking notes on her style choices, and is perhaps not of the mindset that imitation is the most sincere form of flattery.
“It is a competition at the end of the day,” the New Yorker told Variety in her latest interview. “People want to be all, ‘I’m a girl’s girl,’ but then behind the scenes being b**ches… I can be transparent, and I know the competition is checking on me too,” Spice confidently stated. “It’s like, ‘Yeah, girl, I’m watching you and I know you watching me.’ And boys are watching too, because they be secretly haters.”
Seeing as the “Karma (Remix)” artist directly mentioned the phrase “girl’s girl,” many social media users think she’s referencing a viral Latto interview in which she praised herself for supporting other female rappers. “All this started just because Latto acted like she didn’t know Ice Spice’s viral TikTok song,” one person speculated on Twitter. “The rap girlies are so entertaining and I’m here for it.”
Keep scrolling to see what both Latto and Ice Spice’s fans are saying about the former’s new Variety cover story. Do you think that the “Deli” rapper intended to throw shade directly at Latto, or was she simply making a blanket statement? Let us know in the comments, and check back later for more hip-hop/pop culture news updates.
Exactly. Latto has had two top tens in a 6 year career whereas Ice Spice has had several in one. They are not the same.
As summer comes to a close, hip-hop and R&B fans have a lot to look forward to this fall and winter. A star-studded lineup of tours is set to hit the road, bringing unforgettable performances to fans all over North America and Europe. From Lil Yachty to Rod Wave and many more, these tours promise […]
Sources have told ESPN that Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Usyk have signed fight contracts for the winter. The fight, scheduled to take place in Saudi Arabia, will be the first undisputed heavyweight fight in boxing’s four-belt era. While a date has not been confirmed, the fight will take place on December 23 or in early January. The details will be further set after Fury fights Francis Ngannou in late October. Fury currently holds the WBC belt while Usyk holds the WBA, IBF, and WBO belts.
The fight is a renewal of a proposal from earlier this year. Fury and Usyk were originally scheduled for April of this year, with a fight slated for London’s Wembley Stadium. However, the fight fell through at the last moment. Instead, Uysk fulfilled his mandatory WBA defense against Daniel Dubois in an August fight in Poland. Meanwhile, Fury has not fought since beating Derek Chisora in December.
Francis Ngannou Trains With Mike Tyson Ahead Of Tyson Fight
Breaking: @Tyson_Fury and Oleksandr @Usykaa have signed contracts for an undisputed heavyweight championship fight in Saudi Arabia, multiple sources told @MikeCoppinger.
Meanwhile, Fury’s next opponent has not been skimping on his training. Ngannou has been spotted training with former champion boxer Mike Tyson. Tyson has been helping Ngannou for his professional boxing debut against Tyson Fury next month. The fight finally came about after a war of words between the two men and Ngannou’s exit from the UFC. He is currently signed with the PFL, which gives him more freedom to pursue ventures such as the Fury fight.
However, even with the help of Tyson, there are few people who believe that Ngannou can actually beat Fury. Fury is widely considered one of the best active boxers in the world. Possessing a 33-0 record, Fury has long complained that his success has made it hard for him to actually schedule fights because no one wants to fight him. By the time these two fighters meet in the ring, it will have been 10 months since Fury’s last fight. But Ngannou should serve as a decent warm-up to Fury’s real showstopper of the year.
The Air Jordan 11 definitely has to go down as one of the greatest Jordan sneakers ever. This sneaker was first released in 1996 and was the first to feature Zoom Air technology. If you are a sneaker lover, there’s a good chance the Jordan 11 has made it into your rotation. The sneaker is loved by just about everyone. For that reason, we are still seeing new colorways and editions released. This time, we’re getting some exclusive in-hand images of a new Air Jordan 11 “Neapolitan”.
The “Neapolitan” colorway is not something new for Jordan, in fact, we’ve seen it before. Most recently with the Nike Air Force 1 Low “Neapolitan”. The “Neapolitan” colorway combines elements inspired by the famous ice cream dessert. Featuring a blend of soft pastel hues, including pink, brown, and cream, this color palette creates a sweet aesthetic. The Neapolitan colorway adds a delightful twist to sneaker designs, offering a unique option.
The sneakers feature a light pink, semi-translucent rubber sole with a sail midsole. The upper of the sneakers extends the sail color, featuring a sail leather base adorned with glossy brown leather overlays encircling the shoe. Near the sock liner, you’ll discover a brown Jumpman logo on the sides. The color scheme of pink, brown, and sail is a deliberate nod to the beloved Neapolitan ice cream flavor. In its entirety, these sneakers don a pristine and polished colorway. It is important to note that they are a WMNS exclusive, meaning only women’s sizing will be available – as well as preschool and toddler sizing.

Earlier this year, Greta Gerwig’s Barbie movie became the definitive pop culture event of the summer. The film had an absolutely stacked cast and built up massive hype through its various trailers and promotions. That clearly paid off because the film broke all kinds of box office records. Part of that hype was no doubt the soundtrack for the film. Some of the biggest artists in the world like Dua Lipa, Billie Eilish, Lizzo, Khalid, and many more appeared in the tracklist of the film’s soundtrack.
One of the standout songs from the film and one of the biggest hits it produced is “Barbie World” from Nicki Minaj and Ice Spice. It was the pair’s second collaboration following Nicki hopping on a remix of Spice’s song “Princess Diana.” “Barbie World” has been on the Hot 100 for over 3 months now peaking at number 7. It’s still inside the top 15 as well, sitting at the 12th spot on the chart this week. Now in a new interview with The Hollywood Reporter, one of the film’s producers went into detail on how Nicki’s involvement was procured.
Barbie movie director, Greta Gerwig wrote a letter to Nicki Minaj personally asking her to be on ‘Barbie World’:
— ‘You are Queen Barb…when I set out to make this film, as I was thinking of artists, you were the first artist that really came to me as somebody…’ pic.twitter.com/a17oAXXLyD
“From the very beginning, we had felt like having Nicki, who is Barbie essentially, be a part of this thing,” Barbie producer Kevin Weaver said. “We went to Greta and asked Greta if she would write a letter to Nicki and Greta wrote this beautiful note to Nicki and basically said like, ‘You are Queen Barb and when I set out to make this film, as I was thinking of artists, you were the first artist that really came to me as somebody that I felt was going to be an important collaborator and contributor to this.’
Clearly the letter worked not only to get Nicki Minaj on board, but Ice Spice as well. “Nicki hit us back and said that she was 100 percent in.” What do you think of Greta Gerwig’s letter to Nicki Minaj? Let us know in the comment section below.

Usher made headlines all summer for serenading various celebrity women at his My Way residency in Vegas. Famously, he shared a moment with Keke Palmer that sparked a tremendous amount of controversy. The father of Palmer’s child, Darius Jackson, responded to the clip publicly, shaming her for her outfit. This led to backlash, breakup rumors, and more. Many also thought that Jackson was truly more upset with how close Palmer and Usher had gotten in the video. The incident even left some claiming that Usher was on aTake Your Girl tour.
He and his guests leaned into the drama, with various taken women later making a point to keep their distance. Saweetie, Winnie Harlow, and more have been serenaded in recent months, and clearly wanted no part of the controversy. Luckily, he was recently able to find the perfect guest to sing to during “There Goes My Baby.” He spotted British model Leomie Anderson in the crowd at his recent show in Paris, and she seemed more than willing to make the most of the moment.
Anderson shared a couple of clips from the night on social media. “I had one shot,” she captioned one of them. “Usher in Paris was >>>” In the clip, she’s seen summoning Usher to come sing to her, and showing off her seductive moves. “I think I found my baby over here,” Usher says. “I just wanna make sure I got the right one.”
Finally finding his “baby” isn’t the only thing Usher has to be excited about as of late. Recently, it was also announced that he’ll be performing at the upcoming 2024 Super Bowl Halftime show. “This is a moment that I’ve waited my entire life for and I am not coming to disappoint,” he says of the honor. What do you think of Usher serenading British model Leomie Anderson? Share your thoughts in the comments section down below, and keep an eye on HNHH for more updates on Usher.
