Lil Nas X’s Tampon Halloween Costume Gets Backlash, Has This Bold Response To Haters

November 2, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Just like every other year, 2023 held plenty of absurdly viral, talked-about, and controversial Halloween costumes in the celebrity world. However, none seemed to garner as much negative or positive attention than Lil Nas X’s choice to dress up as a bloody tampon connected by a string to a huge, fake… well, you know. Moreover, he got a lot of flack for this fit due to its lewd or explicit nature, what many interpreted as a comical treatment of a real health product, or portraying a negative view of women. If you’ve heard the Georgia native’s music in any capacity, you know he’s not about any of that, and he took to Twitter on Wednesday (November 1) to make this clear.

“I been silent for nearly 2 years,” Lil Nas X expressed on the social media platform. Then, he made a bold claim about people not actually being angry about the costume and just overblowing their reaction. “Y’all are not finna pretend to be mad about a tampon costume. Let me at least get new music out first.” Overall, the MONTERO star isn’t buying the backlash coming from prudes, and doesn’t even think he has the space in pop culture right now to warrant such an overreaction.

Lil Nas X Defends His Tampon Costume: Read

I been silent for nearly 2 years y’all are not finna pretend to be mad about a tampon costume. Let me at least get new music out first.

— ✟ (@LilNasX) November 1, 2023

In more ways than one, he is quite justified in his defense and emotions, particularly about his silence. It’s been a couple of years of relatively low-key movement for Lil Nas X, mostly comprising of shows, promo opportunities, and popping out for other celebrities. Still, it seems like that might change very soon due to very unfortunate circumstances. After someone called in a bomb threat at his new documentary’s premiere, he hit the studio after feeling inspired by it.

Meanwhile, that claim comes from the film Long Live Montero‘s co-director, Carlos López Estrada. Considering this response to the tampon costume, it shouldn’t be all too surprising of a revelation for fans. Hopefully he can let go of some of the clapbacks and stay silently but defiantly focused on himself, his career, and his own dreams and desires.

This Halloween, Queen Naija left fans spellbound with her jaw-dropping transformation into the legendary Diana Ross. As she donned a stunning costume that paid homage to the Queen of Motown, the internet lit up with admiration and a few intriguing comparisons.

Decked out in three different looks, Queen Naija’s Diana Ross ensemble was nothing short of spectacular. Her flowing, voluminous hair cascaded down in true Diana Ross fashion, and her makeup perfectly captured the essence of the iconic singer.

However, amidst the accolades and applause for Queen Naija’s spectacular Diana Ross transformation, a few observers couldn’t help but notice a resemblance to another famous artist, Cardi B. Some fans took to the comment section to express their opinions, igniting a playful debate over the accuracy of her costume portrayal. “Idky i thought you were cardi b at first glance but you killed this look though,” one person wrote in the comments. “Yooo why u look like the hood sis Cardi had to do a double take,” another person said.

November 1, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Fat Joe is someone who is a legend in the hip-hop world. Over the decades, he has been able to give us some classic records. Furthermore, he is someone who is eager to speak on the culture. He has a ton of great insights, and he is not afraid to share them with the world. Moreover, he likes to give artists their flowers, which is always nice to see. Some oldheads can be pretty cranky about matters, but that has simply not been the case with Joe. Instead, he has been nothing but a pleasure to listen to.

As you may have noticed, last night was Halloween. This is always a good time to come out with a clever costume that is going to get people talking. Overall, Fat Joe seems to agree with that. He decided to have some fun with his costume, and as you can see in the tweet below, it was a topical costume at that. The rapper went with the Ozempic injection pen. For those who may not know, Ozempic is a medication that helps you lose weight by completely suppressing your appetite.

Fat Joe Has Some Fun

Technically, the drug is supposed to be used to treat diabetes. However, in recent years, people have been using it to lose weight. Some have tried to say that is actually quite dangerous to do this. However, others have spoken about just how life-changing it all is. As with any drug, it does come with some side effects. At the end of the day, there is never zero risk with these things. Either way, Fat Joe definitely got us talking with the costume choice.

With Halloween done, let us know which artist you felt had the best costume. Also, are you rocking with Fat Joe on this one? Or should he not be promoting the drug?

It’s the time of year when celebrities online are going above and beyond to put out the best Halloween costumes. Plenty of fans have impressed with their costumes, or in Megan Thee Stallion’s case, their variety of costumes. While some tend to wander pretty far away from the scary origins of the holiday, others see dressing up as inexorably linked to elements of horror. That was the case for Tyga, who disappeared into a notable horror icon for his holiday celebrations.

“What’s your pleasure…,” Tyga captioned his newest Halloween post. In the pictures attached, he shows off a shockingly real Hellraiser costume. The film series is seen by many as classic horror and fans in the comments agree. “They don’t call you the king of halloween for nothing,” one fan says to hype up the rapper. “This goes hard,” and “BODIED THIS” two of the top comments on the post agree.

Tyga just teamed up with YG for the release of a new project. Hit Me When U Leave The Klub: The Playlist dropped last month and contains features from Lil Wayne, Busta Rhymes, and Blxst. It was supposed to be met by a joint tour for the pair, which was also due to include Saweetie. Earlier this year the tour was canceled and while no official explanation was given, many fans speculate that it was over low ticket sales.

The Halloween costumes come as Megan continues to prepare for the release of new music. Earlier this month, she shared a brief clip on social media teasing an “Act One.” She also revealed that she’s no longer affiliated with her former record label, 1501 Certified Entertainment on Instagram Live. “I have no label right now,” she told her followers. “We’re doing everything funded straight out of Megan Thee Stallion pockets. So, the budget is coming from me. […] I’m so excited to be doing something for the first time independent since it was just me and my momma. So excited cause it’s really just me this go-round until we sign to a new label.

Coi Leray’s Bear Costume Shows Off Her Curves In New Steamy Social Media Pics

October 30, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Coi Leray is one of many celebrities showing off their Halloween fits this year, although she is certainly more subtle than most. Moreover, on Sunday (October 29), she shared some pictures of her minimal but steamy bear costume on social media. The Massachusetts MC wore a small brown bodysuit with some black paint on her nose and with fuzzy ears atop her head. Furthermore, it’s not the most elaborate costume in the world, which will already make it lag far behind in the race for many critics and fans. However, when you think about something that combines sexiness, comfort, and a clear indication of what you’re dressed up as, we can’t deny that she checked these boxes.

While Coi Leray’s career still has a lot more gas in the tank, at least she’s made a lot of moves in the fashion world without compromising that. She and Tracee Ellis Ross posted up in all-black YSL for Paris Fashion Week, an occasion which had her traveling all over the world to show her style. As such, the 26-year-old is already doing a pretty good job of balancing her main artistry with some extracurricular experience. This might not seem important to some, but in the social media age, it’s always safe to set apart a couple of different lanes for yourself.

Coi Leray’s Bare But Beautiful In Bear Costume

In addition, moves like these could further cement an artist into “icon” status, which Coi Leray recently questioned, thus opening up some fan debate. “Back in the days, it was easy to define an icon,” she tweeted last Thursday (October 26). “For example, Janet Jackson, Beyonce, Ri, Ciara, Missy… many more…. I noticed things changed, so I’m asking, what makes an icon today? Streams? Likes? Numbers?

“Stage presence, vocals, cadence, fashion, versatility, choreography, effort, bars, lyrics.. Does it not madder?” Coi continued. “What do y’all WANT to see? Or be honest.. it doesn’t even madder anymore because it’s so much going on in the industry , viral moments is easier to digest? Idk , I hit this blunt and started overthinking…Normally I try to just be the observer, sit back . Keep it cool… but I figured I share that with y’all cause I’m so curious.” For more news and the latest updates on Coi Leray, keep checking in with HNHH and check out her costume in the Via link below.

Megan Fox & Machine Gun Kelly Dress Up As Anime Characters For 2nd Costumes

October 29, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Megan Fox and Machine Gun Kelly dressed up as characters from the anime, Death Note, for their second Halloween costumes, over the weekend. The two were spotted heading to Vas Morgan and Michael Braun’s Halloween Party in the outfits. Earlier in the weekend, they went with characters from Kill Bill, which ended up being a controversial decision.

SAG-AFTRA requested that members avoid dressing as characters that would promote struck work and if they do, at least not post it on social media. The guidelines read: “Let’s use our collective power to send a loud and clear message to our struck employers that we will not promote their content without a fair contract. Choose costumes inspired by generalized characters and figures (ghost, zombie, spider, etc). Don’t post photos of costumes inspired by struck content to social media [either].” While sharing her Gogo Yubari outfit, Fox tagged the union on Instagram. Kelly dressed as Uma Thurman’s The Bride.

Fans had plenty of negative responses to Fox’s post. One wrote: “You look amazing but i wish you didn’t post this. I totally understand if you disagree with sag and want to voice that privately / to your inner circle, but using your massive platform to undermine the union and sow seeds of division in an incredibly public way does nothing but hurt our leverage with the amptp.” Another sarcastically added: “Yes girl give it to your union trying to get better wages and benefits for lesser known people than u!” Check out their Kill Bill looks below.

Kim Kardashian Trolled By Kourtney Kardashian With Her Halloween Costume

October 28, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Kim Kardashian and her sister Kourtney are in a pretty nasty feud right now, at least for gossip-heavy reality TV standards. Moreover, even though they still have moments of reconciliation and they clearly still love each other, the public eye isn’t holding them in the friendliest of regards with each other. Not only that, but there are some ideas for taking shots at each other that are just too good to pass up. For example, Kourtney recently showed off her Halloween costume for this year, and it’s a hilarious recreation of her sister’s Met Gala look for 2013, baby bump and all.

Of course, this reference to Kim on Kourtney Kardashian’s behalf can be interpreted in a few different ways. One of those is a simple homage: Kourtney thought the dress was beautiful and that her sister pulled it off in an iconic way. Another is ridicule: that look and moment was such an anti-slay that it could be its own freaky Halloween costume. Either way, it’s pretty comical for die-hard fans, although the recent context around their relationship makes it hard to see as anything less than a slight jab.

Kourtney Kardashian Emulates (Or Mocks) Kim With Her Halloween Costume

Regardless of these petty disagreements, Kourtney still wished Kim Kardashian a happy birthday recently, and reflected on them. “Happy happy birthday to my first sister @kimkardashian!” she expressed on IG on Saturday (October 21). “Thank you for all those years of bossing you around and you actually listening to all my cr*zy ideas. People think the fights they’ve seen on tv are bad… if only they got to witness the hair pulling, nail digging ones from early high school. The joys of sisterhood. I love you deeply forever and always. May God bless this year with love and happiness and abundant joy. [heart emoji].”

Given that she also included a picture of them in matching Halloween costumes for the occasion, maybe this spooky season costume isn’t the dig that context would have you believe. Still, this is the Kardashians we’re talking about. What’s family without a little drama? For more news and the latest updates on Kim and Kourtney Kardashian, stay logged into HNHH.

Rich The Kid’s Halloween Costume Clowned For Bizarre Vampire Look: Fans React

October 28, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Rich The Kid is enjoying the spooky season this week, as many other rappers, celebrities, and everyday people are, as well. However, when it comes to his costume of choice, turns out that he wasn’t so lucky to also enjoy some praise and respect for it. Moreover, fans clowned the College Park MC’s vampire-like fit online that he shared on Wednesday (October 25) via Instagram, whose defining questionable factor are the arcs that protrude from his shoulders. Honestly, if it wasn’t for that, he could’ve been just fine as a Playboi Carti clone in the Rick Owens vamp era. But alas, this extra detail and what many saw as a copycat fit as a whole drew some jokes online.

Furthermore, Rich The Kid’s IG comments filled up with roasts, jabs, questions, and pretty comical reactions. One user posted a GIF of Ryuk from Death Note walking casually, a character who walks around with wings. “Hell Wrong With This N***a Shoulders,” another added, although others seemed to rock with it more than anticipated. “Bro is actually tuff,” a fan expressed, and Quavo as well as his partner Tori Brixx, whom the 31-year-old had cheated on and apologized for, shared their support of it, as well.

Of course, Rich The Kid’s fit also played into the satanist and Illuminati conspiracies that people love to level at famous folks online. “THEY ARE THE REAL VICTIMS WE ARE ACTUALLY FREE,” one user wrote. “THEY ARE THE REAL SLAVES LOOKED SO STRESSED N FORCED TO WEAR N PROMOTE THIER Satanic agenda. So sad these celebs are in Hell!!” Another added, “This is straight Illuminati controlling these artist for $$ and taking away their freedom. Look at slide 6 they gotta worship so they can be publicized. Rich the kid is a [fire] artist one of the best but I’m just saying it’s cr*zy.” Check out more reactions to the vampire look down below.
