Grammy season is underway. As the events are rolling out, members of the Recording Academy are looking forward to enriching their minds with music knowledge and creativity.

“I am so excited for this second installment of Grammy House,” Harvey Mason Jr., CEO of the Recording Academy, said in a statement (via Billboard). “The response last year from younger fans and artists just starting their relationship with the Recording Academy was overwhelming, and we’re a better organization because of the increased engagement with them. I’m grateful for the amazing artists and partners who are helping make this year’s Grammy House an even bigger success.”

One of the Grammy Week events includes a special Masterclass with singer and actress Halle Bailey. Members of Grammy U will be able to attend the Masterclass in person by invitation only. The good news for non-members is that they will be able to livestream the event on Friday, February 2 at 1 p.m. PT, via the Grammy Awards’ YouTube and Twitch channels.

Over the course of the past year, Halle Bailey, who performs under the stage name Halle, starred in two movie musicals — The Little Mermaid and The Color Purple released her solo debut single, “Angel.” She has proven to be quite successful in both music and film, and while it’s not clear what her Masterclass will be about, she’ll surely have some valuable insight to offer.

Halle’s Masterclass is just one of a handful of Grammy Week events from the Recording Academy, so learn more about what else is going on here.

No, Ice Spice Does Not Have A Little Munch In The Oven, Despite The Viral Photo Circulating Online

In 2023, no other rap rookie shined quite like Ice Spice. You name it, the “In Ha Mood” rapper accomplished it. From chart placement and big brand partnerships to massive collaborations with superstars Nicki Minaj (for the Barbie movie soundtrack) and Taylor Swift, Ice Spice is one to watch.

This year, based on interviews from her producer, RiotUSA, the Bronx native doesn’t have any plans on slowing down with her debut album slated to drop this year. However, thanks to a now-viral photo shared by Ice Spice, users online think that could be pushed back. After uploading an image on X (formerly Twitter) to show off her casual chic look of the day, her followers’ reaction was quite what Ice Spice expected.

The number one thing on fans’ minds was: Is Ice Spice pregnant? The question nearly became a trending topic as the image’s impressions on the platform alone rocketed to over two million.

Ice Spice chimed in without skipping a beat to shut down the speculation quickly. “Nobody’s pregnant,” she wrote. “N****s just phat.”

Images taken from other angles seem to support Ice Spice’s claim. However, after the lengths Halle Bailey went to in order to hide her pregnancy on social media, users aren’t convinced by Ice Spice’s explanation.

Chlöe Could Be Reuniting With Her Sister Halle Bailey, Or So The Singer Teased While Chatting With Fans

2023 belonged to the Bailey sisters. Both Uproxx cover star Chlöe and Halle Bailey accomplished considerable career feats in their solo pursuits. For Chlöe, that included hitting the road for her first solo headlining tour, dropping her debut studio album In Pieces, and appearing in several film and TV projects. Halle’s resume was also quite impressive.

Before welcoming her son with DDG, Halle starred in The Little Mermaid and The Color Purple. She even snagged a Grammy nomination for her debut solo single, “Angel.” With both siblings swamped with professional opportunities, fans have let go of the idea of a Chloe X Halle reunion. However, not all hope is lost. On January 20, during a TikTok livestream, Chlöe teased that the supporters’ wish had been granted.

When asked by a user when the duo would release new music, Chlöe quickly answered, “Soon.”

Shortly after dropping their sophomore studio album, Ungodly Hour, the siblings broke the news to fans that they would be taking a hiatus. With Halle hard at work on her forthcoming solo album, it’s hard to say how a reunion would fit into the plans. Maybe instead of an entire project from the duo, Chlöe is hinting about a one-off track on Halle’s upcoming project. Either way, fans can’t wait until it becomes tangible.

Halle Bailey’s baby is here, and now she and those close to her are pulling out footage from her pregnancy. The latest to deliver a video is her sister, Chloe Bailey.

In the video, Chloe and Halle are dancing to Drake’s “Rich Baby Daddy,” with Halle’s stomach showing during the turn-up session.

Earlier this month, Halle Bailey confirmed what fans long speculated, she was pregnant. She and her boyfriend, rapper DDG, announced the birth of their son Halo on Instagram.

“Even though we’re a few days into the new year, the greatest thing that 2023 could have done for me, was bring me my son,” Bailey wrote. “Welcome to the world my halo 🥰👼🏽 ✨the world is desperate to know you 😉🤣♥.”

DDG shared, “my biggest blessing by far 👶🏽❤ son son.. never been so in love 🥹 baby halo.”

Chloe X Halle Twerk It Out To A Drake Favorite In The First Video From Halle’s Pregnancy

Now that Halle Bailey has finally revealed the birth of her and DDG’s baby Halo, the floodgates of pregnancy content have opened. After months of Halle staying off social media to protect her mental health, she’s apparently given her sister Chloe the green light to start sharing the videos and photos the two inevitably shot during the pregnancy. Chloe’s first post shows that the baby weight didn’t slow the younger Bailey down one bit as the sisters teamed up to twerk it out to Drake’s For All The Dogs ratchet favorite, “Rich Baby Daddy” featuring Sexyy Red and SZA.

The rumors of Halle’s pregnancy swirled throughout the last quarter of 2023 as the Color Purple star mostly stayed out of the press cycle for the film despite playing a major role in it and being featured heavily in the trailers. Any appearances she did make in public were in very baggy clothing to hide the baby bump. However, the sisters — and DDG — went to extreme lengths to downplay the rumors, with Chloe appearing to address them by telling fans to “keep my sister’s name out your mouth” and DDG trolling fans with a baby doll on a livestream.

Now that the baby has arrived, though, he already has over 50,000 followers on Instagram, despite only having one photo. But in terms of the Bailey fam social media, it seems we’re mostly just happy to see more Chloe X Halle content — and the potential for a follow-up to Ungodly Hour.

Halle Bailey Said She ‘Stayed Off Of All Social Media’ During Her Pregnancy In Order To Keep Herself ‘Sane And Okay’

Halle Bailey had an incredible 2023, with the premiere of two blockbuster films, as well as her debut solo single. And she’s already kicking off 2024 with a bang. Earlier this month, Bailey revealed that she and her beau, rapper DDG, welcomed a baby boy named Halo last year.

Though she remained mum about the pregnancy throughout much of last year, keeping her body hidden with large flowing dresses and garments, Bailey finally took some time to answer fans’ questions via Snapchat.

One fan asked “Was the [sic] blogs and cameras stressful while pregnant?”

Bailey responded, saying “I mean, a little bit, but honestly I stayed off of all social media. I really tried to, just to keep myself sane and okay.”

Though she was quiet on social, that didn’t stop fans from coming up with their own theories, and attempting to catch Bailey or DDG slipping up. But the couple was committed to sharing the news on their own terms.

“I know that there was a lot of people who would always, like, comment and be like, ‘We know, girl, we know.’ And I’m like, ‘Okay, that’s great that you know. But I’m gonna just chill, you know, and that’s wonderful if you support me, and if not, that’s okay too. I hope you have a wonderful life.”

Now, it appears DDG and Bailey are enjoying their new parenthood. So much so, they created an Instagram account for Halo.

You can see a clip from Bailey’s Snapchat session above.

Halle Bailey Continues Post-Pregnancy IG Streak With Underwater Belly Shoot

Halle Bailey is really enjoying her newfound life as a mother after only just a couple of weeks or so. Moreover, she and her boo DDG welcomed their first son Halo into the world late into 2023, and announced his birth just last week at press time. Most recently, though, the singer and actress shared her post-pregnancy body in a new picture for her Snapchat followers. “So this is me rn and I’ve [been] letting my body heal,” she captioned the photo. “Haven’t started really working out yet but I’ll show you my goal [heart emoji].” Thanks to the 23-year-old’s most recent Instagram post, we can assume there will be a lot more content coming.

Furthermore, she just posted a video of an underwater photo shoot that Brandon Almengo did for her, and it looks absolutely stunning. Halle Bailey’s free-flowing dress and locks of hair swirl all around her as she poses for various angles while submerged, and fans also begged her to drop the song she used as the vid’s background. “missing my belly already [purple heart emoji] but i obviously had to do underwater pics,” the “Angel” star captioned the vid. Now that she doesn’t have to be secretive anymore, we’re sure that she and DDG will capitalize on the wholesome updates now and rewind back in time to give fans the scoop.

In addition to all this, the couple had each other to celebrate recently, not just the arrival of their bundle of joy. For example, DDG and Halle Bailey recently celebrated their second anniversary in late December, and we can imagine it was hard not to bring up their son while showing each other love for their bond. Regardless, the flood of rumors that had people feeling unsurprised at Halo’s birth didn’t stop them from moving on with their careers as usual. They could’ve easily just given fans the pleasure of saying “I told you so,” but they stuck through with their plan until the very end, or so we think.

Meanwhile, we wonder what other interesting things about this pregnancy went unnoticed or that fans actually figured out over the past nine months or so. Perhaps DDG can address it in a new song or vlog, as he expressed a lot of happiness over becoming a father. Congrats to the happy couple for this amazing moment, and we hope they keep it rolling with some adorable insights into their journey– if they so choose. On that note, check back in with HNHH for the latest news and updates on Halle Bailey.

Halle Bailey Shares Post-Pregnancy Body Picture

Halle Bailey just shared one of her first post-pregnancy updates with fans via Snapchat. Moreover, she shared a picture of her body after giving birth to her first son, Halo, whom she has with her partner DDG. “So this is me rn and I’ve [been] letting my body heal,” the R&B star wrote as her snap’s caption. “Haven’t started really working out yet but I’ll show you my goal [heart emoji].” Given that the couple tried their hardest to keep their bundle of joy a secret until he arrived, it’s understandable if she now feels a little bit more comfortable sharing the details of her personal growth and journey as a mother.

Sure, some people complained that the 23-year-old should only pick one or the other, but live and let live. Furthermore, this contrasts US Weekly‘s recent report, which cites an alleged source presumably close to the couple who claimed to know the reasoning behind Halle Bailey’s secrecy. “Halle told friends it was to protect their baby and relationship from scrutiny,” they posited. “But it was all very strange to those around them, especially when she has had such a huge year in movies.” Not only that, but the alleged source also hinted at her having “plans to take some time off to bond with Halo.”

Elsewhere, this is one of many remarks DDG shared about his newborn with Halle Bailey. “I’m a dad, y’all,” he expressed gleefully in a YouTube vlog. “I have a son– I have a baby boy. He’s a newborn. He was actually born last year [but] we were just waiting on the right time to basically break the news or whatever. It’s been a lot of speculation. It’s a blessing and I love him so much. I barely know him and he barely know me. We barely know each other. I just love him so much and it’s just a different type of feeling.”

Meanwhile, Halo’s even got his own Instagram now, so we’re sure we’ll see much more of him in the future. It’s a nice contrast from the pregnancy rumors and wild claims that preceded him, right? Either way, we’re happy that the couple is sharing and growing at their own pace. With that in mind, keep checking in with HNHH for more news and the latest updates on Halle Bailey.

Beyonce, Cardi B, Halle Bailey

In the world of celebrity couples, there are often power dynamics that emerge, with one partner’s fame shining brighter than the other’s. From DDG and Halle Bailey to Beyoncé and Jay-Z, these women celebrities have managed to overshadow their significant others in terms of popularity and influence.

Celebrity Cache

DDG & Halle Bailey

When social media personality DDG started dating A-list singing and acting star Halle Bailey, it caused quite a stir. Many have noted that while DDG has built a successful career on social media, Bailey’s star power and talent far surpass his own.

A$AP Rocky & Rihanna

While A$AP Rocky had established himself as a brand before dating Rihanna, their relationship catapulted his image to new heights. Additionally, Rihanna’s billionaire status and their collaborative efforts, such as A$AP Rocky’s recent collaboration with Rihanna’s Fenty line, have also showcased them being a dynamic duo.

Beyonce & Jay-Z

Beyoncé and Jay-Z are considered one of pop culture’s ultimate power couples. However, there is a common sentiment that Queen Bey’s celebrity status outshines her husband’s.

Even in a joking manner, President Obama shared a joke with Jay-Z in 2017 during Jay-Z’s induction into the Songwriters Hall of Fame, where Obama delivered a speech on his behalf. In the speech, Barack mentioned:

“Although he’s going to have me beat once those twins show up. And let’s face it, we both have wives that are significantly more popular than we are.”

Michelle & Barack Obama

Moving beyond entertainment, the popularity of former First Lady Michelle Obama, often overshadowed that of her husband, former President Barack Obama. Michelle consistently received higher popularity ratings, even being named the most admired woman in the world in 2019.

Cardi B & Offset

Cardi B and Offset‘s tumultuous romance has been the subject of much attention. Despite Offset’s accomplishments with the Migos, Cardi B has become more marketable and gained greater exposure in her career, making her appear to be the most popular of the two.

Angela Bassett & Courtney Vance

In the realm of acting, Angela Bassett‘s popularity has often eclipsed that of her husband Courtney B. Vance. While both are esteemed actors, Bassett has carved out a more prominent name for herself in the industry.

India & Durk

India Royale and Lil Durk have been making headlines with their high-profile relationship. However, it is widely acknowledged that India has achieved greater popularity outside of her relationship with Durk, establishing her own identity.

Stephen & Ayesha Curry

NBA star Stephen Curry and his wife Ayesha Curry have both made names for themselves in their respective fields. However, Ayesha has garnered attention outside of her husband’s sporting world with her endeavors, cementing her status as a notable figure.

Can Celeb Relationships Survive The Limelight?
