Ben Affleck Clowned For Looking Miserable At Grammys With Jennifer Lopez

by

One of the biggest celebrity weddings we witnessed in 2022 was undoubtedly between Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez. Two decades after previously ending their first engagement, the former lovers made their way back to each other. They tied the knot in a stunning Georgia ceremony, and since then, have been enjoying life together as newlyweds.

While the Gone Girl star works primarily in the film industry, his multi-talented wife dabbles in both acting and music. Seeing as she’s had a generally successful career as a singer, Lopez was invited to attend Sunday’s (February 5) Grammy Awards as a presenter. Much to the audience’s avail, her husband chiefly tagged along as her date for the evening.

The newlyweds didn’t walk the star-studded red carpet, but the Hustlers starlet did make her debut on stage early on. She handed out the first trophy of the night, specifically for Best Pop Vocal Album to Harry Styles and his Harry’s House effort. Unfortunately for Affleck, his wife obviously wasn’t able to leave after carrying out her role.

Several times throughout the undeniably lengthy award ceremony, cameras panned to the 50-year-old looking increasingly bored. Whether watching Stevie Wonder perform “Higher Ground,” or simply soaking in the presence of other celebrities, the look on his face reads as though he’d rather be anywhere else than at the Grammys.

Unsurprisingly, Twitter users are explicitly having a field day making memes of Affleck’s expression. Some pointed out that it’s sad to see him looking so miserable in the presence of his dream girl – especially now that he’s finally married her. Others, however, find it comedic that the father of three is so often caught on camera looking miserable.

“Ben Affleck is every introvert everywhere. You can see his batteries draining in real-time. Man is already at 23%,” one user later joked. Another person wrote, “Ben Affleck is every husband dragged to a work thing by his wife.” Furthermore, people expressed gratitude for the cameraman who kept eyes on the Argo actor throughout the night.

Angela Simmons & Yo Gotti Step Out For Grammys Date Night

by

After previously rapping about his crush on Angela Simmons in his “Down In The DMs” track, Yo Gotti has officially bagged the 35-year-old. Relationship rumours began circulating last September when she rapped along to the aforementioned namedrop during a night of partying. Shortly afterwards, they raised more eyebrows by posting matching vacation photos on their Instagrams.

Things were relatively quiet for the CMG head and his rumoured girl through the last few months of 2022. However, when the new year began, the New York native promptly let the world know that she was “happier than ever” with Yo Gotti. We’ve obviously been seeing more and more of the couple in public recently. This past weekend, for example, they spent their date night at the Grammys.

Like many other huge names in the industry, Gotti took a trip to Los Angeles to walk the red carpet and take in some astounding performances last night (February 5). His date for the evening, Simmons, looked as stunning as ever in a curve-hugging black dress. It came complete with a white feather trim around the bottom.

She also wore her hair in a slick updo, complete with a bang. For his part, the recording artist looked undeniably dapper in a black and white tuxedo. He opted to accessorize with a bowtie and shiny studs in his ears. In a video later uploaded to his social media, Gotti and the shoe designer walk through the venue as he tells the camera that Simmons’ feet are in pain.

“She gotta get it together,” the 41-year-old jokes as she struggles to keep up. After seeing the pair take on the red carpet together, some Twitter users chiefly expressed concern at their lack of smiles and genuine energy in some photos. “This Angela Simmons and Yo Gotti relationship seems very pressed [and] staged,” one user said.

“Idk what it is, just not looking [like an] organic, genuine relationship.” Another added, “Yo Gotti ain’t smiled since he been with Angela Simmons.” On the other hand, other social media sleuths simply praised the Memphis native for finally bagging his longtime crush.

Ben Simmons & Eiza González Seen On NYC Date After Maya Jama Engagement Ring Beef

by

Like many NBA players, Ben Simmons isn’t just known for his work on the court – his love life also keeps him in the news near-constantly. As you may recall, the 26-year-old was previously engaged to English TV host Maya Jama after a whirlwind romance. Things between them, unfortunately, didn’t end as expected. Recently, the athlete took legal action to have the ring he proposed to his ex with returned.

Upon receiving the demand letter, the brunette beauty’s team says she was shocked, but happy to comply with the request. It remains unclear if she’s been seeing anyone else in between her hosting duties on Love Island. However, we do know that Simmons seems to have moved on. According to Page Six, he was out in New York City with a certain actress earlier this weekend.

The Brooklyn Nets player and 33-year-old Eiza González were photographed in the Big Apple on Friday (February 3). Apparently, they’ve been seeing one another on the low for months. “They’ve been hiding and trying not to get seen [together],” an insider tells the outlet.

During their date night, the rumoured couple were photographed leaving Manhattan’s Bondst restaurant. It’s a high-end sushi place, and the pair are said to have dined alongside “a group of friends.” A source notes that “They weren’t alone [for the dinner], but they are very clearly together.”

The images taken don’t show any PDA between the two, but they allegedly went back to Simmons’ place together afterward. It remains unclear if she spent the night, or how serious the couple considers their union to be at this time. The baller clearly has a type, as he’s been involved with plenty of dark-haired beauties in the past.

He previously dated Kendall Jenner for two years, from 2017 to 2019. Their romance was inconsistent in nature, and the model eventually moved on with Devin Booker, who she’s also no longer with. Yet another starlet who once was seeing Simmons is 333 singer, Tinashe.

She may currently be spending time getting to know Simmons, but last spring, González was in a relationship with Aquaman actor Jason Momoa. The two got together following his separation from Lisa Bonet, and though it didn’t last, it certainly had everyone talking about them. Read all about the short-lived romance here, and check back later for more pop culture news updates.

Kanye West Wears Face Mask For Date Night With Bianca Censori

by

Kanye West went on a date night with his new wife Bianca Censori this week, although he clearly wanted to go incognito. Moreover, the Chicago rapper and his wife went to Beauty & Essex restaurant in Hollywood on Tuesday night (January 31). However, Ye wore a full-covering black face mask when they exited, save for the two small holes for his eyes. Also, the couple both wore all-black ensembles. On one hand, the “Yikes” artist wore a large black coat with long pants and big black boots. Meanwhile, Censori wore a black see-through dress with long, beige fur boots.

Furthermore, the Yeezy mogul’s mate stared at her phone in most pictures from the paparazzi, so their emotions were under wraps. In fact, Kanye reportedly said nothing to photographers when they left the restaurant and got in their car. After all, this date night follows an incident from a couple of days ago where Ye threw a woman’s phone. Moreover, she was recording the artist along with a few other people who spotted him leaving his daughter North’s basketball game. As a result of the confrontation, authorities are investigating Ye for alleged battery. Even his ex-wife Kim Kardashian refused to comment on the situation.

However, the tale of Kanye West and Bianca Censori developed about as quickly as it broke. Since the reveal of their marriage a couple of weeks ago, more news came out concerning Kanye’s controversies. For example, during a Balenciaga shopping spree with Censori, Ye wore a German Reich-inspired shirt. While he took a small break from the public eye, the news of his marriage stirred the pot again. Still, the high-profile coverage of their every move, as exhausting as it may be for viewers and readers, caused other problems.

Moreover, Australian authorities stated that they might deny Kanye entry into the country to visit his wife’s family. While reports indicated that he ended up arriving, various Jewish organizations from the nation spoke out against his visit. What’s more is that the Chicago rapper’s presidential campaign is reportedly nowhere close to getting in motion. Reportedly, no one’s donated to the campaign yet, but stay tuned to HNHH for what’s next for Kanye West.

Kanye West Wears German Reich Shirt During Balenciaga Shopping Date With Bianca Censori

by

The last half of 2022 saw what some may call “the fall of Kanye West.” The father of four finalized his divorce from Kim Kardashian and publicly feuded with several frequent collaborators. He also lost out on deals with brands like Adidas and Balenciaga.

The “Flashing Lights” rapper didn’t hesitate to air the companies out on social media. However, a recent report reveals that he’s still got at least a little bit of love for the Spanish fashion house.

According to TMZ, West and his new wife Bianca Censori visited Balenciaga’s Rodeo Drive location on Wednesday (January 25) evening. While shopping in Beverly Hills, they apparently dropped some serious cash. Cameras caught their security loading several grey bags into their SUV outside the store.

His decision to shop somewhere that’s cut ties with him seems obviously odd, but that wasn’t the only strange thing about Ye’s big night out. Under his black puffer coat, the 45-year-old was wearing what looks like a white tee with the German Reich’s coat of arms emblazoned across it. The symbol was prominent prior to the Nazi’s adoption of the swastika. The shirt also has “Bundeswehr” written across it, which is the name for Germany’s federal defence forces.

After balling out at Balenciaga, the couple apparently went shopping at Neiman Marcus. It remains unclear if any bags were brought to their vehicle after that stop.

Aside from making major money moves, the newlyweds have also been spending time with Ye’s kids. Just a few days ago, they dined at Nobu with North West. During that outing, the Yeezy architect debuted her new short blonde hair.

They’re very clearly spending their time in America at the moment. However, it was reported earlier this week that West and Censori are expected to take a trip down under to meet her family in the near future.

Unfortunately, it seems plans may fall apart as Australian Jewish organizations have been speaking out about their desire to keep the disgraced rapper out of their country. Read more about that here, and check back later for more pop culture updates.

Sam Asghari Denies Britney Spears’ “Manic” Behaviour, Says Singer Was “Frustrated”

by

When Britney Spears’ long-running conservatorship finally came to an end thanks to the efforts of her friends, fans, and legal team, the world finally felt cause to celebrate. As she initially enjoyed her newfound freedom, the mother of two posted plenty of nude photos to her social media pages. This caused nothing short of a stir in the headlines.

For the most part, the “Gimme More” singer’s antics have been harmless. However, we have seen some shots fired between her and her family members. Most notably, her father, Jamie Spears, and little sister, Jamie-Lynn Spears. Additionally, she and her own son found themselves in the midst of a tense back-and-forth last year. Still, Spears maintains her love for the young boy.

In recent weeks, some social media users have been expressing concerns about Britney’s health. As more questionable content went up on Instagram, and her comment section was turned off, even more eyebrows began to raise. Over the weekend, it seems things became even more heated during the Mississippi native’s date night with her husband, Sam Asghari.

As Page Six notes, Spears is said to have “caused a scene” while dining at Joey in Woodland Hills on Friday (January 13). Eyewitnesses describe the 41-year-old’s behaviour as “manic,” also claiming she was “talking gibberish.” As a result, her partner reportedly stormed out of the restaurant.

A video obtained by TMZ contradicts these claims. It simply shows the famous blonde shielding her face with a menu while a stranger was filming her. Additionally, a Joey employee told the media that Britney wasn’t the disruptor. Rather, “it was the diner who taunted her by taking a video without consent.”

Spears “was understandably upset” by the invasive stranger’s antics. Asghari left the table briefly to get their car, “but did not storm out,” the source also notes.

In the days since the incident went viral, the former child star has seemingly addressed it in various ways. From posting a video flipping the camera off several times to writing a message to her haters, the Blackout artist made her disdain very well known.

“I know the news is all hyped about me being a little drunk at a restaurant… It’s like they’ll be WATCHING MY EVERY MOVE,” she told followers earlier this month. “I’m so flattered they talk about me like a maniac THEN have the balls to talk about all the negative things that happened in my past!!!”

See what Sam Asghari told the paparazzi about Britney Spears’ erratic behaviour in the video below. Afterward, share your thoughts on the drama in the comment section.

Pete Davidson & Chase Sui Spend More Time Together After Denying Romance

by

Pete Davidson’s love affairs with Kim Kardashian and Emily Ratajkowski were obviously left in 2022. Still, it seems the comedian is carrying one of his previous flings into the new year. In the last few weeks of the year, the Saturday Night Live alum was seen with Chase Sui Wonders. However, they denied any romantic involvement at the time.

After attending a hockey game together following his split from the High Low podcast host, Davidson and his Bodies Bodies Bodies costar hit the town together once again this weekend.

According to Page Six, on Friday (January 13) they went out in New York City. Paparazzi caught photos of them parking an SUV on a side street. Both of them wore layers to keep warm from the winter air.

For her part, the 26-year-old went bold with animal print pants and a unique scarf. Her date, on the other hand, opted to blend in with his surroundings by wearing neutrals.

It remains unclear where the rest of the evening took them. We do know they were eating at Baba’s Pierogies in Brooklyn just last week. Customers in the shop at the time reportedly saw Wonders wrap her arms around Davidson. Other sources additionally claim to have seen the pair exchanging a few kisses.

Of course, The King of Staten Island star has established himself as something of a ladies’ man in Hollywood. Prior to Ratajkowski and Kardashian, he was engaged to Ariana Grande and has also dated Margaret Qualley, Kaia Gerber, and Cazzie David, just to name a few.

He’s still in his late 20s and doesn’t seem desperate to settle down anytime soon. However, Davidson made it known this past summer that having kids one day is a “dream” of his.

“[I’m] definitely a family guy,” he told Kevin Hart at the time. “My favourite thing ever – which I’ve yet to achieve – is I want to have a kid. That’s like my dream.”

Lori Harvey & Damson Idris Fuel Dating Gossip In West Hollywood: Watch

by

No more than a year ago, if you asked pretty much anyone online, they’d tell you that Michael B. Jordan and Lori Harvey were an “end game” couple. Practically since the start of their union, it seemed as though the model and actor were preparing for an eventual walk down the aisle. However, all of that suddenly and unexpectedly ended earlier this year when they announced their split to the world.

Since then, the Memphis native has been maintaining her single-girl status – until now, that is. Earlier this month, rumours began running rampant about her and Snowfall actor, Damson Idris. For the most part, many expressed jealousy over the gossip. Others, however, praised Harvey for her Thanos-like ability to collect fine men like infinity stones.

While there were previously no photos to substantiate any claims of an ongoing fling between them, that began to change this past weekend. As Just Jared reports, the famous pair were dining in Los Angeles a few days ago.

To avoid any suspicion, they arrived separately for their date. Additionally, details posted on @theneighborhood talk reveal that Idris’ security escorted him to the rear passenger seat of his Escalade after 10:30 PM that night.

Minutes later, his guard returned to the restaurant to safely usher Harvey to the other side of the vehicle. After leaving Olivetta, the rumoured couple reportedly went to Catch Steak to celebrate Zack Bia’s birthday party.

Sources say they waited for photographers to leave that venue before dipping near midnight. This time it was ladies first as the 25-year-old was escorted back into the Cadillac. Idris came soon after, and they sped off to their next location.

Speculators think that Harvey and her apparent new beau left separately to avoid being photographed together.

Along with the Damson Idris gossip, earlier this month came a rumour suggesting that the socialite requires the men she’s romantically involved with to sign an NDA. This isn’t uncommon practice among celebrities, however, Lori Harvey’s allegedly has a severe financial penalty if broken.

Read all the juicy details about that here. Afterward, let us know what you think of the potential new couple in the comments.

Diddy Kisses Mystery Woman After Nobu Dinner Date: Photos

by

It seems fatherhood has Diddy feeling at the top of his game – according to his current dating roster, that is. Earlier this month, the multihyphenate shared via Twitter that he welcomed a seventh child, named Love Sean Combs, recently. In the wake of that bombshell, sleuths quickly discovered that baby’s mother to be 28-year-old Dana Tran. At this time, the nature of her relationship with Puff remains unknown.

As gossip began to circulate about the infant, who was actually born in October, Yung Miami was quick to enter the chat and make it known that she’s not anyone’s “side bitch.” Previously, Akademiks had used his own social media feeds to throw shade at Caresha. Specifically, he trashed her for continuing to date the Bad Boy without commitment.

After a back-and-forth ensued between those two, Diddy himself interjected and let the world know that he doesn’t play about his City Girl. “[Yung Miami] is not my side chick. Never has been, never will be,” he wrote earlier this week.

“She’s very important and special to me, and I don’t play about my Shawty Wop. I don’t discuss things on the internet and I will not start today,” the “I’ll Be Missing You” hitmaker concluded.

He may say he doesn’t play about the “Twerkulator” rap diva, but that doesn’t mean he’s willing to stop having his share of other fun. Just a few days ago, Diddy was romantically linked to Shawntya Joseph, a social media personality and YouTuber.

Photos of the two strolling through New York on December 9th began circulating shortly after Combs broke his baby news. Since then, another woman was photographed getting up close and personal with him.

As The Shade Room reports, Diddy spent his Friday (December 16) night on a dinner date with a pretty young thing at Nobu. Her identity currently remains unknown, though the paparazzi images taken make it clear that she’s got the producer’s eye.

In the comment section, some users are speculating that all of these headlines could be a part of an album rollout for Puff. Others couldn’t help but praise the Harlem-born star on his impressive roster.

“That line-up is crazy,” one Instagram follower wrote. “God a nice a$$ c00chie collection,” someone else chimed in.

Do you think Diddy is getting serious with any of the women in his life, or are his antics all part of a PR stunt? Let us know below, and check in later for any pop culture news updates.
