Bad Bunny & Kendall Jenner Kiss During Sushi Date
Kendall Jenner and Bad Bunny are an Instagram post away from making their apparent relationship official. Over the past few weeks, rumors began floating that things have been heating up between the Latin superstar and the California model. Though neither has confirmed the news, the recent public outings have undoubtedly fanned the flames. Paps spotted the two together out for dinner in Beverly Hills where they were reportedly supposed to be joined by Justin Bieber and his wife Hailey for a double date.
Prior to that, reports emerged that the two were making out in the club in Los Angeles. It was largely hearsay but the Internet was certainly shocked by the rumors. However, their relationship status has been rather confusing as of late. While Kendall’s ex, Devin Booker, unfollowed her after she allegedly made out with Bad Bunny, the Latin singer was also spotted on the celebrity dating app Raya. So it’s unclear where they stand but the latest spotting of Bad Bunny and Kendall certainly made it seem like things are getting serious between the two

The two might not be ready to hit the red carpet just yet but they are certainly enjoying each other’s company. According to PageSix and TMZ, the two were spotted kissing and hugging after grabbing sushi with a group of friends. Kendall and Bad Bunny were joined by a group of friends including Odd Future affiliate Taco and Kylie Jenner. Kylie and Kendall arrived first before Bad Bunny joined them. However, they each left separately in their own vehicles.
It seems as though Bad Bunny and Kendall Jenner could become the next celebrity IT couple. However, following Jenner’s split from Booker, she reportedly isn’t looking for anything serious. Still, it seems like Bad Bunny could change that in the near future. At this rate, Kendall and Bad Bunny are bound to be everything this summer together. Can you see the two becoming the next biggest celebrity couple? Sound off in the comment section below and check out the pictures from their date night above.

Tyga and Avril Lavigne Seen Kissing in Paris Amid Dating Rumors
Tyga & Avril Lavigne Photographed Kissing At Paris Fashion Week
Tyga and Avril Lavigne were just spotted kissing at Paris Fashion Week following intense rumors online. While neither party has confirmed a fling in, say, an Instagram post, the smooch certainly makes things hard to dent. Moreover, the assumed couple posted plenty of stylish fits on their socials in celebration of the fashion event. Still, as soon as pictures spread across social media, fans had a field day. Hopefully the two can make a proper assessment on their status without focusing on media breathing down their necks.
Furthermore, rumors started flying after the pop-punk singer’s split from Mod Sun. “Avril and Mod Sun have been on and off for the past two months, but are no longer together as a couple,” an insider said. “Avril and Tyga are genuinely friends and nothing more,” added a source to PEOPLE. “There was absolutely no third party involved in the split.” Meanwhile, one of Mod Sun’s reps expressed surprise at the news. “They were together and engaged as of three days ago when Mod left for tour so if anything has changed that’s news to him,” they expressed. “Mod will be performing tonight in Portland at The Hawthorne Theater.”
Tyge & Avril Lavigne Spotted Kissing
Not only that, but the first time the two artists in question sparked gossip was a NOBU date. After they left in the same vehicle, many caught the hint that something deeper was going on. Amid their outings in Paris, Mod actually took to Instagram to share his feelings. “In 1 week my entire life completely changed…I just know there’s a plan for it all,” he wrote. “I’ll keep my head up + always listen to my heart, even when it feels broken [broken heart emoji]. Being surrounded by love every night on tour has been an absolute blessing. I have the best friends in the entire world, thanks for always having my back. See you on stage.”
Of course, many fans expressed shock at the pairing, but that’s the way love goes sometimes. It’s unclear whether all this speculation is due to an actual relationship between the two. Still, time will tell if things are official, and Twitter will continue to light a fire over it. Regardless, stick around on HNHH for the latest updates on Tyga and Avril Lavigne.
Jada Pinkett Smith Describes Tupac Kiss As “Disgusting” In Resurfaced Interview
While hip-hop lovers have often speculated that Tupac and Jada Pinkett Smith may have been each other’s “the one that got away” prior to the rapper’s untimely death, a resurfaced interview from 2015 finds the Girls Trip actress explaining to Howard Stern just how wrong those theories are.
Many have wondered how the mother of two avoided the temptation right in front of her in the form of one of her closest friends, and the host didn’t hesitate to press her by asking, “How were you not attracted to Tupac?”
“I met Tupac at the Baltimore School of the Arts. We went to High School together,” Pinkett Smith recalled, also noting that, while the West Coast artist was undeniably charismatic, he was also poor, and allegedly only owned two pairs of pants and two sweaters when she met him.
As Stern inquired about if ‘Pac was as “gangsta as we all thought he was,” the 51-year-old confirmed the gossip. “He was a revolutionary without a revolution. That kind of energy just transferred into a whole other thing,” she explained.
When the host asked if Pinkett Smith thought the “All Eyez On Me” hitmaker was in love with her due to the beautiful poetry he penned in her honour, she said, “It is so funny. Now being older, I have more of an understanding of what that was between us.”
“When you have two young people who have very strong feelings but there is no physical chemistry… between us at all. And it wasn’t even just for me. It was him too.”
The Red Table Talk host shared that there was once a time when she asked Tupac to kiss her, just to see what would happen. “When I tell you it had to be the most disgusting thing, kiss for us both,” she admitted.
While Stern suggests the lack of sexual chemistry was due to the “platonic” nature of their relationship, Pinkett Smith offered a more philosophical explanation.
“The only way I can put it is the ‘Higher Power’ just did not want that,” the Baltimore native suggested. “I feel as though if Pac and I had any kind of sexual chemistry we might have killed each other because we were both so passionate and we loved deeply.”
In the same interview, Pinkett Smith said she didn’t feel guilty about not being on good terms with 2Pac at the time of his death, as she knew that he knew that she loved him.

The Best Vinyl Releases Of November 2021
Anybody who thought the vinyl resurgence was just a fad was mistaken: The industry has experienced a legitimate revival. As a result, music fans are interested in physical media in ways they may not have if the decades-old medium hasn’t made a comeback. That doesn’t mean everybody is listening to just their parents’ old music, though. That’s part of it, sure, thanks to rereleases that present classic albums in new ways. A vital part of the renewed vinyl wave, though, is new projects being released as records, of which there are plenty.
Whatever you might be into, each month brings a new slew of vinyl releases that has something for everybody. Some stand out above the rest, naturally, so check out some of our favorite vinyl releases of November below.
The Black Keys — El Camino (10th Anniversary Deluxe Edition)
The Black Keys were at the height of their power with 2011’s El Camino, and in just a few days, the album celebrates its tenth anniversary. To mark the occasion, the band has re-released it in various expanded editions. Aside from the remastered album, bonuses include a photo book, a limited-edition poster, and a previously unreleased concert recording from a 2012 show in Portland, Maine. Coincidentally, I was actually at that concert, and if my memory serves me correctly, it was a good one.

Lil Wayne — The Carter Singles Collection
Lil Wayne’s Tha Carter series is an iconic hip-hop institution, and now he’s collected the highlights all in one place. On Tha Carter Singles Collection, you get 19 of the finest songs from the series pressed on ten 7-inch records, as well as a booklet full of rare photos, two lithos, and brand new art.

U2 — Achtung Baby (30th Anniversary Edition)
After the all-time classic album The Joshua Tree and the not-as-beloved Rattle & Hum, U2 made a drastic change to their sound with the alternative- and electronic-inspired album Achtung Baby. That album dropped 30 years ago, so now the band is celebrating its three decades with a new anniversary edition. This version of the album has been remastered and also includes remixes of songs from both Achtung Baby and its follow-up Zooropa.
Get it here.
Charlie Parker — Bird In LA
Los Angeles played a major role in the story of jazz legend Charlie Parker, and now some formative recordings from the Kansas City native’s time in the City Of Angels are all together on this new collection. The release features the only known recordings from Billy Berg’s on December 17, 1945; three previously unknown JATP recordings from the Shrine Auditorium on November 22, 1948; and the complete recordings of the July 1952 party at Jirayr Zorthian’s Altadena ranch. For those wanting more context on the meaning of these recordings, the project’s producer, John Burton, offers just that in his liner notes.

Kiss — Destroyer (45th Anniversary Super Deluxe Edition)
1976’s Destroyer was a formative and landmark release for Kiss, and now, 45 years later, they’re expanding upon it with a new reissue. Aside from the remastered album, the amount of goodies that is included with the Super Deluxe box is extravagant but not surprising coming from perhaps the most merchandised band ever: There are iron-ons, stickers, posters, trading cards, stage blueprints, a newspaper, a hardcover book, and much more.
Get it here.
Nirvana — Nevermind (30th Anniversary Reissue)
Much has been made about the 30th-anniversary edition of Nirvana’s Nevermind, and truly, this is a must-have for Nirvana fans. There are a variety of editions, the beefiest of which comes with 8 LPs that feature the original album (newly remastered, of course), four full concerts, a 40-page hardcover book with unreleased photos, and other goodies. If physical music isn’t your thing, the band also has a bunch of new merch to coincide with the album’s anniversary.
Get it here.
Radiohead — Kid A Mnesia
Speaking of anniversary releases, Radiohead had a big one this year, although it’s pretty different from the Nirvana one. Kid A Mnesia actually celebrates two albums, Kid A and Amnesiac, by collecting both albums as well as B-sides and unreleased tracks from the era. Again, if you’re not looking to buy a record/CD/tape, the gift-able merch offerings here are diverse, including everything from a paint-by-numbers set to holographic stickers.
Get it here.
She & Him — A Very She & Him Christmas
Who’s that girl? It’s Zooey Deschanel! And also that guy, M. Ward, who is known collectively alongside Deschanel as She & Him. The duo dropped a delightful Christmas album a decade ago and now they’re celebrating the project with a rerelease. It’s super holiday-ready, too, as it’s pressed on tinsel silver vinyl and comes with a new 7-inch, which features covers of Madonna’s “Holiday” and Wham!’s “Last Christmas.”
Get it here.
Yusuf / Cat Stevens — Teaser And The Firecat (50th Anniversary Super Deluxe Edition Box Set)
Teaser And The Firecat helped establish Stevens as a premier singer-songwriter of his era 50 years ago. Now he’s celebrating the anniversary with a deluxe edition of the album that is described as “the most in-depth and definitive version of the album possible.” This version includes a remastering of the original artwork, 41 previously unreleased tracks including studio demos and alternate mixes, and a 108-page essay book.

Billy Joel — The Vinyl Collection, Vol. 1
Billy Joel is still going strong today, but on The Vinyl Collection, Vol. 1, he looking back on the ’70s. The massive 9-LP collection features his first six solo albums (Cold Spring Harbor, Piano Man, Streetlife Serenade, Turnstiles, The Stranger, and 52nd Street), his first live album (Songs In The Attic), and a previously unreleased concert recording (Live At The Great American Music Hall — 1975). All of the aforementioned come right from the original album tapes, and there’s also a 50-page booklet to offer more context on these classic projects.
Get it here.
RZA — Bobby Digital In Stereo (Vinyl Me, Please Reissue)
RZA went out on his own outside of Wu-Tang with his debut solo album, 1999’s Bobby Digital In Stereo, a project that helped him establish his own unique identity outside of the iconic hip-hop collective. Vinyl Me, Please always nails it with the vinyl color and they did so again here with their reissue of the album, which is pressed on “Mantis” Green vinyl that’s a perfect visual complement to the cover art.
Get it here.
Sigur Rós — Með suð i eyrum við spilum endalaust
Sigur Rós’ 2008 album was a defining release for post-rock fans and buttcheek lovers everywhere, and while it’s not celebrating a round-numbered benchmark anniversary this year, the group is still going ahead and giving it a vinyl reissue. It was a good call, though, as the album was previously out of print worldwide, and now it’s available in both heavyweight black vinyl and a limited run of sky blue vinyl.
Get it here.
Rihanna — Rih-Issue (Music Of The Sun, A Girl Like Me, Good Girl Gone Bad, Rated R, Loud, Talk That Talk, Unapologetic, Anti)
No, Rihanna hasn’t announced a new album though. However, for those looking back on her old projects in the meantime, she is now offering a tremendous way to do so. She recently announced a cleverly titled new series of “Rih-Issue” releases, which features fancy rereleases of her entire eight-album discography. Each one comes with an exclusive shirt, making this the best way to fill any Rihanna-shaped hole in your vinyl library.
