Lizzo Channels Sexy Grinch In Latest Twerking Video: Watch

by

We already knew that she’s 100% that bitch. Now, Lizzo is letting us know that she’s also “100% THAT GRINCH.” In her latest twerking thirst trap, the Special hitmaker donned an all-green look as she channelled the moody (but beloved) holiday character.

In her usual fashion, she made her costume slightly NSFW by stepping into a bondage-style jumpsuit. The look was complete with fur and chains running down the bodice. Additionally, she rocked a green smokey eye and a lengthy wig in the same colour.

At first, we see Lizzo running her manicured hands down her full figure as she shakes her hips in unison with Shelby Swain’s “MRS. GRINCH.”

“I’m a bad bitch, Mrs. Grinch / I’m a real one, I don’t f*ck with me,” the track’s lyrics go. “All wrapped in designer, from n*ggas I don’t got time for / Mrs. Grinch, Mrs. Grinch.”

After showing us what it looks like from the front, Lizzo let her followers see her bodacious behind from the back. As expected, she twerked away, leaving fans (such as SZA) to thirst over her in the comment section.

While one doesn’t necessarily need an excuse to dress up like their favourite holiday character, the “About Damn Time” songstress has a good one. That same night, she was performing at iHeart Radio’s annual Jingle Ball.

Other stars to take the stage in Madison Square Garden include Jack Harlow’s rumoured new girlfriend, Dua Lipa, as well as the Backstreet Boys and Demi Lovato.

Lizzo’s Christmas look is undeniably epic, but it’s got nothing on the costumes she put together for Halloween in October.

Firstly she made headlines by stepping out as Chrisean Rock. Later, she and Cardi B had the same idea in donning hilariously unforgettable Marge Simpson outfits.

Unfortunately, the latter’s has gotten her into some legal trouble. Read more about that here, and check back with HNHH later for more pop culture news updates.

Lizzo Is ‘100% That Grinch’ As She Twerks Her Way Into The Festive Holiday Spirit On Instagram

The holidays look different for everybody. For some, a cozy pajama set gets them in the festive holiday spirits. Maybe a cheerful holiday playlist featuring classics like “All I Want For Christmas Is You” by Mariah Carey. Others require a few cups of spiked eggnog or hot cocoa. But for Emmy-Award-winning rapper/singer Lizzo, it’s a combination of a few things.

The Grammy-winning is giving into her unique festive holiday energy, and it’s about damn time. In a fun Instagram video captioned, “100% That Grinch,” Lizzo is taking cosplaying to a whole new level. Dressed in a green striped catsuit with a bondage-style corset overlay, ombré green hair, and long green pointed stiletto nails, the singer is setting into the role of Mrs. Grinch and is ready to get the holiday party started.

As Shelby Swain’s “Mrs. Grinch” plays in the back, she twerks along to the chorus to hype herself up before performing at Z100’s Jingle Ball concert.

We know Missy Elliott requested the singer turn her latest album, Special, into a musical, but now, we’d rather see Lizzo in a remake of the beloved Dr. Seuss story.

This weekend, Lizzo is set to appear on Saturday Night Live alongside actor Austin Butler. It makes you wonder, will Lizzo bring out her reimagined Mrs. Grinch for her featured performance?

Jim Jones Rallies The VL Crew For “Jim Jones Presents: 12 Days Of Xmas”

by

There might not be another rapper who is as dedicated to spreading holiday cheer like Jim Jones. Over the course of his career, he’s consistently blessed fans with holiday records and albums. In 2006, he dropped off A Dipset Xmas. Two years later, he followed it up with the release of A Tribute To Bad Santa Starring Mike Epps.

Nearly 16 years later, and he’s returned with his latest Christmas album, Jim Jones Presents: 12 Days Of Xmas. The rapper’s latest project is a compilation effort that highlights the talent on his VL imprint. Along with Rayy Rayy, who supplies comedic relief during the skits, Jim allows his roster of artists to shine across the board. Though the comedian provides skits, he also has his own track with the titular track.

“Comedy and music has always been synonymous for me. One compliments the other,” said Jim Jones. “I’ve been watching Rayy Rayy grind and make so many people laugh since I’ve first noticed him during the pandemic. He’s helped with the decision to start signing comedians not verbally through conversation but through his comedy. So when I decided to make the Christmas album 12 days of Christmas it was only right I have Rayy Rayy host for his debut on vamplife comedy.” 

12 Days Of Xmas provides some familiar holiday sounds while updating them to reflect the soundscape of New York’s scene.

“A New Diva’s Christmas Carol” Trailer Stars Ashanti, Vivica A. Fox & Eva Marcille: Watch

by

Christmas is right around the corner. As the most wonderful time of the year quickly approaches, a new festive movie will soon be available for your viewing pleasure.

A New Diva’s Christmas Carol is a new holiday-themed comedy picture. According to ThatGrapeJuice, it tells the story of a “mean-spirited singer.” In an attempt to change her attitude, three ghosts take her on a journey through Christmas’ past, present and future.

The flick is a modern twist on the classic 1843 film, Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol.

A newly released trailer shows off the star-studded cast. “Foolish” singer Ashanti, actress Vivica A. Fox and TV personality Eva Marcille lead the stacked crew.

Furthermore, Spice Girls member Mel B and Head of the Class actress Robin Givens will also appear in the flick.

None of these personalities are new to providing entertainment tailored to this festive time of year. Ashanti previously starred in Christmas Winter Song, while Fox starred in this year’s Holiday Hideaway.

Additionally, this won’t be Marcille’s first festive role this year either. A few months back she starred in A Christmas Fumble.

In other recent news, Ashanti has been stirring conversations about her intimate performance with ex-lover Nelly. The duo appeared on stage together for Power 98.3 and Power 96.1‘s “Under The Mistletoe” concert just over a week ago.

The production for their collaborative 2008 hit, “Body On Me” was rather steamy. It subsequently caused some fans to take to social media to gossip about their potential reunion.

Even though she’s over two decades into her career as an entertainer, the 42-year-old is certainly staying relevant.

Ashanti’s latest project is finally set to premiere on VH1 on Wednesday (December 14). English actor Idris Elba serves as the executive producer and Rusty Cundieff is directing.

Will you be tuning in to watch A New Diva’s Christmas Carol this holiday season? Let us know in the comments.

Mariah Carey & Daughter Monroe Sing A Christmas Duet: Watch

by

Mariah Carey isn’t able to declare herself the official “Queen of Christmas.“ However, she’ll forever be associated with the festive holiday in the hearts of many. To help spread the seasonal cheer in 2022, the songstress organized four December performances – two in Toronto and two in New York – the first of which took place earlier this weekend.

For her stay in the 6ix, the “Touch My Body” hitmaker is taking over the Scotiabank Arena stage. As she entertained the crowd from a specially decorated set on Friday (December 9), the mother of two surprised them with an appearance from her 11-year-old daughter, Monroe.

As Page Six notes, they covered the Christmas classic “Away in a Manger” together, marking their first-ever duet.

For the occasion, the mother-daughter duo wore similar sparkling white ball gowns. For her part, the 52-year-old stunned in a bejewelled bodice and full tulle skirt look. Her little girl stood alongside her in a tutu-style skirt with cap sleeves covering her upper half. Additionally, both of them channelled royalty in glistening tiaras.

“This is my baby girl, here. Eleven years ago, I got the greatest gift,” Carey told her Canadian audience. “You know what, I don’t have birthdays, but the birthing day was the greatest gift ever.”

The New York native will perform in the north once more tonight (December 11). Then, later this week, she’ll be headed to her home state to let her voice shine at Madison Square Garden.

Carey was obviously happy to have Monroe with her in Toronto. However, earlier this month reports revealed that she’s allegedly putting pressure on ex-husband Nick Cannon to spend more time with their twins.

The multihyphenate is an undeniably busy man, which nearly a dozen other children arriving since she gave birth to his first two in 2011.

Of Course Mariah Carey Has Four Christmas Trees In Her House

by

Recently Mariah Carey, the undisputed Queen of Christmas (despite insisting she doesn’t call herself that), revealed that she owns not one, not two, but four Christmas trees. Are we surprised?

Carey stopped by The Late Show to chat with host Stephen Colbert for a special holiday edition of his popular segment, “The Colbert Questionert.”

When picking out tree toppers, Carey said she prefers both an angel and a star. One might wonder how she could put both on top of one tree but don’t worry — she has four Christmas trees. She can make it work.

The songstress also shared that she has loved the holidays since childhood, but because of her tough upbringing, she was never able to enjoy them as she can now.

“I always wanted Christmas to be perfect, and it never was,” Carey told Colbert. “So when I was finally able to provide for myself, my friends, and then later my kids, who are 11, we have the most festive Christmas ever.”

Additionally, Carey noted that her upbringing and love for the holidays have impacted her pathway into Christmas-themed music, saying that it comes from a “longing to have some normalcy and peace.”

Later this month, Carey will host her own two-hour special on CBS, Mariah Carey: Merry Christmas To All!, which will be filmed during her December 13 performance at Madison Square Garden in New York City before being released on December 20.

Patrick Beverley Tells His Kids Santa Isn’t Real

by

Patrick Beverley is certainly one of the most interesting men in the NBA right now. For years, he has been known as a pest on the court, who loves to talk a big game. Consequently, he has been given his very own podcast with Barstool Sports. So far, the podcast has been quite successful.

Overall, it is a podcast that is mostly about basketball. Throughout each episode, Beverley will touch on current events throughout the league. Additionally, he speaks on stories he has from his long career in the league. From time to time, he also likes to talk about his personal life and his children.

Patrick Beverley Comes Clean

In the most recent episode of his podcast, his kids were a topic of conversation. As you can see in the clip below, this is mostly because he was talking about Christmas. Beverley recently admitted to telling his children that Santa Claus does not exist.

The Los Angeles Lakers star wanted to make it clear to his kids that it was he who was giving them all of their gifts. Overall, it is a pretty hilarious way to think, although that’s Pat Bev for you.

“Them presents y’all getting ain’t from Santa, that s***’s from me,” Beverley said. “That’s me eating that s***, I just wanted to let you guys know.”

Telling kids that Santa isn’t real can be a truly crushing experience. As children, we are full of wonder and will pretty well believe everything. Unfortunately, reality has to set in eventually.

Let us know what you think of Pat Bev’s masterclass in parenting, below. As always, stay tuned to HNHH as we will bring you the latest news from around the sports world.

Lizzo Threw A Karaoke Christmas Party And Went To Town Singing Eminem

No matter what you did on Christmas, can it top a karaoke party at Lizzo’s house? Sure, you might’ve had a golden glazed ham or a feast of seven fishes with the fam, but where does rank next to tequila shots and matching jammies with Lizzo? And even though Lizzo might’ve made herself up as a Christmas Grinch last week, she proved at her party that she’s more like the reformed version of the Grinch who gets down with all of Whoville in the end.

At Casa de Lizzo on Christmas night, the soon-to-be guest judge on RuPaul’s Drag Race hosted an intimate affair with friends and karaoke. In a video series that she posted on Instagram, she begins by singing Nat King Cole’s “The Christmas Song,” in front of a gigantic karaoke projector screen. She closes it out singing “Lose Yourself” by Eminem and she’s doing exactly that, belting the lyrics “Snap out to reality, oh there goes gravity!” with perhaps a few of those tequila shots in her system.

But midway through the Instagram post, we hear her singing a song called “Mrs. Grinch,” with lyrics that are a callback to the captions from the Grinch photoshoot that she posted last week. Some basic internet sleuthing, indicates that “Mrs. Grinch,” is actually a song by Shelby Swain, who has been Lizzo’s hairstylist for years. It’s definitely a Christmas banger and had we known about it earlier, it definitely would’ve been included in our roundup of “Best New Holiday Music That You’ll Actually Want To Listen To.”

Watch Lizzo’s Christmas karaoke party clips on Instagram above and listen to Shelby Swain’s “Mrs. Grinch” below.

Lizzo is a Warner Music artist. Uproxx is an independent subsidiary of Warner Music Group.
