A couple we’ve been seeing out and about together more frequently than ever as of late is Jordyn Woods and Karl-Anthony Towns. The long-term couple celebrated their three-year anniversary earlier this month, and to celebrate, caught a flight to beautiful Dubai together. The social media star was definitely appropriately dressed for the hot weather, posing for photos in an extra cheeky zebra print bikini. She shared a carousel on Instagram on Friday (May 25), showing off her notably slimmer figure from various angles.
Followers have taken notice of Woods’ weight loss, and some of them have accused her of relying on Ozempic to aid her. Recent posts have been riddled with hateful comments, which is likely why the 25-year-old opted to limit replies to this one. “Nothing but hard work. Gotta love a natural body,” one response that made the cut reads. Another comes from Jordyn’s boyfriend, who revealed he was the one responsible for capturing her beauty on camera. “I snapped on these photos,” the NBA player wrote.
Elsewhere in the replies, some have been chastising Woods for her decision to bare so much skin in the Middle East. “Dubai isn’t a place known for the display of nakedness!” one of them condemned the reality star. “Not you making clothes for the thick girls and going on Ozempic… Bye,” another critic wrote for Jordyn to read. No matter what the haters have to say, Jordyn Woods has continued to share stunning content from her trip to Dubai on IG.
On Saturday (May 27), she shared another photo dump, this one primarily focused on the beauty of the nature surrounding her. From watching camels to catching the sunset while standing in the endless sand, she’s had no shortage of adventures on her anniversary getaway with her basketball beau. Are you envious of Karl-Anthony Towns? Let us know in the comments, and check back in later for more pop culture/music news updates.
For five seasons,Red Table Talk offered multiple generational perspectives on several topics. The talk show was led by Jada Pinkett Smith, her daughter Willow Smith, and matriarch Adrienne Banfield-Norris. It also provided many viral moments during its run. Due to the disruption of Facebook Watch Original programs, however, Red Table Talk was canceled in late April. However, the series is reportedly looking for a new home, so the trio might be making a return soon.
There have been many memorable moments from the now canceled Red Table Talk series. The show became known for many highly personal revelations by its star-studded guests. It also became a go-to destination for many celebrities to “set the record straight.” The show quickly became popular for its dose of healing, humor, and lack of judgment. It has also received a fair share of criticism from other celebrities and viewers. Over the course of its 129 episodes, here are five moments from the show that took the internet by storm.
The debut episode of Red Table Talk quickly canceled any thoughts of the show being floozy. It featured a heart to heart conversation between mothers Jada Pinkett Smith and Sheree Fletcher, Will Smith’s ex-wife and the mother to the eldest Smith child, Trey. In the episode, the pair discussed their initial beef and eventual reconciliation. Pinkett Smith apologized to Fletcher for starting a relationship with Will Smith while they were still married. Overall, while there were moments of humor, “Motherhood” kicked off Red Table Talk expertly well, and the episode went viral in no time. The two women have since become friendly and co-parent.
“Jordyn Woods Shares The Truth” – Season 1, Episode 27
Just like the premiere episode, Red Table Talk ended its first season with a bang. Jordyn Woods was the featured guest in the episode. Woods famously came on the series to set the record straight about her alleged affair with Tristan Thompson. She was caught kissing Thompson at a party and the news took over the internet. Woods was quickly cut off from the Kardashian clan.
The episode became one of the most watched, and led to public backlash by members of the Kardashian family, particularly Khloé, Thompson’s girlfriend at the time. Building up to its release, fans were at the edge of their seats, and Woods’s breakdown garnered much sympathy. She also denied the allegations that she gave him a lap dance. Furthermore, Woods did admit to kissing Thompson, but with “no tongue.”
“Demi Moore & Her Daughters” – Season 2, Episode 17
Demi Moore and her daughters Rumer and Tallulah Willis shared a very emotional experience in this episode. Rumer, who she shares with actor Bruce Willis, recounted a harrowing moment surrounding Moore’s drug addiction. After almost 20 years sober, Moore relapsed after a public breakup with Ashton Kutcher. One day, the actress collapsed at home.
Rumer shared how she frantically called 911 on the phone and the journey to sobriety. The women have since grown much closer since the ordeal. They discussed their previous struggles, and how their family continues to heal despite the past. The interview was raw, and packed with a ton of emotion and tears.
“Breaking Family Cycles With Matthew McConaughey” – Season 3, Episode 19
Although canceled, Red Table Talk delivered many emotional episodes while it aired. One of these is the episode, “Breaking Family Cycles with Matthew McConaughey”. The actor sat with the Smith family to promote his memoir Greenlights. He recounted his falling out with his mother, Kay, and their reconciliation years after.
McConaughey shared how his mother did not respect boundaries once he began his rise to fame. Whenever he would confide in her, she would inform the press. This led to a breakdown in their relationship in the late ’90s and early 2000s. McConaughey’s mother was 90 years old when she appeared on Red Table Talk.
“Jada Brings Herself To The Table” – Season 3, Episode 12
“Jada Brings Herself to the Table” is easily the most talked about Red Table Talk episode ever. The husband and wife duo bared it all with Will Smith as the featured guest. The episode centered around Jada’s relationship with August Alsina, famously referred to as an “entanglement.” Alsina had previously said that he had Will’s blessing to pursue a relationship with Jada.
Jada admitted that she and Alsina had begun a relationship during a quiet separation from Will. The pair expressed their mutual hurt and how they have had to heal as a couple. The Red Table Talk episode canceled public perceptions that Will and Jada would end their relationship. To date, it is still the most watched Red Table Talk episode of all time.
There are many more episodes from the popular series that attained viral status, but these five stand out. Red Table Talk, although now canceled, did not receive the boot due to poor ratings. The show continued to perform well on the Facebook Watch platform. As the show is rumored to be shopped around, fans are holding out hope for its comeback.
If any couple is in their own lane and absolutely flourishing right now, it’s Jordyn Woods and Karl-Anthony Towns. The pair rarely makes headlines for any reason regarding drama. Rather, they’re best known for spoiling each other with luxurious gifts and lavish date nights. This week was no exception, as DailyMail reports she and the NBA player were photographed grabbing a late dinner at Lavo in West Hollywood on Thursday (May 18).
As per usual, Woods ensured she was the best-dressed in the building, donning a curve-hugging ankle-length dress by Jean Paul Gaultier for the occasion. She paired the look with beige heels and a dark green bag, wearing her brown hair in long braids reaching down to her curvaceous booty. The fashion designer looks undeniably stunning in the snapshots. Still, many were quick to notice that her outfit of choice is the same one that her ex-best friend, Kylie Jenner, had on earlier this month.
“In a room full of art, I would still stare at you ,” the 25-year-old wrote in her caption, seemingly referencing Towns with the purple heart emoji. He appeared far more casual for their night out together, wearing jeans under a jersey and large black jacket. This certainly isn’t the first time we’ve seen the couple out on the town together in 2023, and it likely won’t be the last as the NBA season wraps up for another year, leaving the athlete with plenty of free time to enjoy with Woods.
Aside from her taking inspiration from Jenner’s campaign shoot, fans have also been talking about the model’s noticeably slimmer figure, speculating that she could be using the popular weight loss drug Ozempic to achieve her results so quickly. Who do you think wore the JPG dress better, Jordyn or Kylie? See photos of the latter’s look here, and share your thoughts with us in the comments.

When Jordyn Woods found herself cast outside the Kardashian-Jenner social circle as a result of sharing a smooch with Tristan Thompson, some speculated that the socialite’s career was over. The world previously best knew her as Kylie Jenner’s best friend. Though that came with some opportunities of its own, none of them gave her the chance to shine in the spotlight like her BFF. Since their “breakup” however, Woods has only gone on to soar to new heights in her career – and pin down one of the NBA’s most eligible bachelors.
She and Karl-Anthony Towns have been romantically involved for several years now, after previously spending plenty of time getting to know one another as friends. Aside from being #couplegoals for the world, Woods has also stepped up in her role as a businesswoman, recently launching her own Woods by Jordyn clothing brand. With so much on her plate, the California native has also found time to focus on her body, which has become notably slimmer following the end of her friendship with Jenner.
In her younger years, Jordyn still had some of her childhood baby fat hanging on, but at 25, she’s stepping more into her adult body after undergoing “second puberty,” as it’s infamously known. Of course, as a young, wealthy, social media star, Woods also has access to countless cosmetic procedures and drugs to enhance her appearance, which some users are speculating may have played a role in her drastic physical transformation. Specifically, they’re crediting Ozempic (allegedly used by stars like Mindy Khaling and Kim Kardashian) as the secret behind her slim thick figure.
“All the celebs, even regular [people] are on Ozempic,” one Instagram user ranted in the model’s comment section. “When do you stop taking Ozempic?” someone else asked. Thankfully for her sanity, just as many fans are showering the young reality star with love, letting her know that they’ve seen the hard work she’s been putting in on her image.

SOHH made an appearance at the Essence Women In Hollywood event to chat with some of the industry’s leading ladies. The event was attended by a number of celebrities, including Jordyn Woods, Yo-Yo, MC Lyte, and Vivica A. Fox, who also shared their favorite female anthems in honor of Women’s History Month. SOHH, here is […]
Some thought that the end of her friendship with Kylie Jenner would also mark the finale of Jordyn Woods’ rise to fame. They were clearly wrong, as the socialite’s star has continued to burn brighter and brighter over the years. Not only has she built successful brands for herself, but she’s also been happily in love with NBA player Karl-Anthony Towns for some time now.
They’ve been together as a couple since May 2020, though many years before that were spent getting to know each other as friends. By September 2020 they went Instagram official, and since then, we’ve seen various heartwarming posts come from both Woods and her all-star athlete. Most recently, the former showed off their date night outfits in a sweet photo on her feed.
The Life of Kylie alum posted the sweet picture with Towns on Monday (February 20). For his part, the basketball player looked dapper outside of his usual jersey, instead opting for an all-black ensemble. He kept his accessories simple, rocking a gold pinkie ring and a flashy watch to complete his look. Beside him in radiant yellow is Woods, who likely turned heads all evening long in her glamorous gown.
Sporting her hair in a sleek, dark brown bob, the California native followed in her man’s footsteps by layering simple gold jewellery. This photo hides the most breathtaking elements of her dress, though another photo dump on her feed reveals Woods’ toned stomach and curvy figure looking fabulous. It remains unclear where the lovers spent their night, but they were undoubtedly the best dressed in attendance.
Her date night outfit may have been on point, but less than a month ago, the model was called out for a serious fashion faux pas. Shortly after the launch of her Woods by Jordyn collection, a TikToker’s negative review of the garments picked up plenty of attention. While some were quick to try to cancel the brunette beauty, she took time to respond to the situation with complete composure.
“There’s always room for constructive criticism and I’m always listening to the consumer to see how I can get better and improve. I will say there is a way to be honest and real without bringing other people down and other influencers into it.” Woods explains in the above video. “Opinions are subjective until you have felt the material and you know, some people are going to love it and some people aren’t going to like it.”

Despite the endless resources celebrities have at their disposal to make their brands top quality for their fans, they still end up missing the mark. In the past, we’ve seen Kim Kardashiancriticized for various products she’s released. Her little sister Kylie Jenner’s swim line was also an infamous fail. Now, the latter’s former best friend, Jordyn Woods, is being accused of releasing “overpriced” clothing – according to one TikToker, anyway.
Earlier this week, @thestellawilliams, a Black fashion creator, made a video giving her first impression on several dresses ordered from Woods by Jordyn. In the caption of the clip, she made her opinion obvious, writing “Count your mf days. Be soooo [f*cking] fr rn.”
Throughout the now-viral clip, the plus-size fashion influencer talks about the product’s quality. Specifically, she compares it to that of the disgraced fast-fashion company, Shein. “It’s so bad, I just unfollowed the brand,” Williams revealed. “I would never, ever have any of my followers spend $123 on these dresses. It just feels like a cash grab.”
“Not trying to be dramatic, but the stuff is so cheap feeling,” she explains. “It literally feels like the clearance section of Shein. “I’m this close to unfollowing Jordyn Woods because I actually feel disrespected as a Black woman.”
Of course, it wasn’t long before the California creative herself saw the review, and unlike other celebrities who hide when hit with hate, she faced it head-on, sharing a response on her own TikTok page.

To begin the video, Woods took a moment to thank Williams for her comments. “OK I just want to lead with wow you look phenomenal in the dress, I honestly think you look so good. Thank you for buying the dress – you look great.”
She then added, “I also want to thank you for bringing so much exposure to my brand being that we just launched Monday. There’s always room for constructive criticism and I’m always listening to the consumer to see how I can get better and improve. I will say there is a way to be honest and real without bringing other people down and other influencers into it.”
“Opinions are subjective until you have felt the material and you know, some people are going to love it and some people aren’t going to like it,” the Life of Kylie star pointed out. “That’s just what it is with everything.”

Lucky Daye kicked off 2021 by releasing his third EP, Table For Two, which features six duets with female singers, including Ari Lennox, Yebba, Joyce Wrice, and more. The singer has stayed quiet on the solo side of things since then, but he’s also dropped an impressive collection of guest verses. On Wednesday, he returned to the solo route with his brand new single, “Over.”
The luscious track captures he and his partner — played by Jordyn Woods — caught up in a confusing relationship that finds them on-and-off-again. “Over” also arrives with an excellently shot video, in which Daye experiences a bad dream multiple times before breaking out of the cycle.
The new song comes after Daye connected with Sevyn Streeter for “Feelz,” off her sophomore album, Drunk Wordz Sober Thoughtz. It’s one of many strong collaborations that Daye has been a part of this year. Others include “You Want My Love” with Earth, Wind & Fire, a remix of “Slow Down” with VanJess, and “Make You Feel Good” with BJ The Chicago Kid.
Daye recently performed at HER’s Lights On Festival in California and is set to appear on stage at the showcase’s second iteration in Brooklyn, NY.
