Rihanna And ASAP Rocky Meet With French President Emmanuel Macron

Rihanna and ASAP Rocky have had a busy itinerary this week. The pair are in France for Paris Fashion Week and have kept busy. At the start of the week, Rihanna popped up for the Christian Dior show. She was sporting a layered black look that left fans a little divided. Later in the week she and Rocky popped up together where her fit was a lot less divisive. But that wasn’t the full story as many online were looking for an explanation from her hair-dresser.

Now their newest appearance may be the biggest yet. Earlier this year the couple were spotted at Elysee Palace after meeting with French president Emmanuel Macron. It’s Rocky’s first time officially crossing paths with Macron but Rihanna has some history with him. RiRi has sat down with Macron twice in the past to discuss educational initiatives she supports. The reason for her newest visit with Macron alongside Rocky is currently unknown. Check out the pictures of the couple leaving the building below.

Throughout this week, Rihanna has been subject to a new spat of rumors. Seemingly based on nothing else but her outfits largely covering up her stomach, pregnancy rumors have spread. With nearly every picture of the singer that emerged from fashion week, the comments swarmed with those speculating that a she could have a third child on the way.

Rihanna and ASAP Rocky had their second child Riot just last year. It came after she surprised fans with an announcement of her second pregnancy during her highly-anticipated Super Bowl Halftime show performance. It’s her second child with ASAP Rocky following the birth of their son RZA back in 2022. Jokes about Rihanna’s long drought without a new studio album have persisted for years with many fans hoping that it would come with last year’s Super Bowl show. What do you think of Rihanna and ASAP Rocky meeting with French President Emmanuel Macron while in Paris for fashion week? Let us know in the comment section below.

Kendrick Lamar’s Unreleased “Tranquilizer” Used To Soundtrack Fashion Show

Paris Fashion Week is going on and it’s crossed over into hip-hop quite a bit. The biggest moment was likely Pharrell’s newest Louis Vuitton show. He previewed an unreleased song with Miley Cyrus and even used Pusha T as one of his runway models. Another surprising moment came when Quavo and Chris Brown were seated next to each other at one of the shows. It re-ignited a beef between the two when Brown took to Instagram to clarify that he didn’t get to choose his seat and still wasn’t a fan of the Migos rapper.

But speaking of unreleased cuts being played during runway shows, there is even more where that came from. A Kendrick Lamar song that originally leaked last year shocked fans when it made its way into a recent runway show. The track is called “Tranquilizer” and it’s never been officially released. Fans speculate that it’s the original version of what would come to be “United In Grief” from Kendrick’s album Mr. Morale & The Big Steppers. Others have speculated that it could be even earlier than that with some saying it sounds more in line with his 2017 album DAMN. Check out the clip of the Chanel show where the song was played below.

Unreleased Kendrick Lamar Song Soundtracks Runway Show

Fans hoping that the song being played means it’s destined for an official release might not want to hold their breath. Numerous high-profile artists have used fashion shows as unique opportunities to show off unreleased or unfinished material. Last year, FKA Twigs debuted a new song during a fashion show that is yet to be released. Though she has been teasing a new electronic-focused album where it could ultimately appear.

Yasiin Bey also performed a currently unreleased song that left him in hot water during a show last week. What do you think of Kendrick Lamar’s unreleased song “Tranquilizer” popping up during a Chanel runway show? Do you think he should release an official version of the song? Let us know in the comment section below.

Kendrick Lamar’s Fashion Week Fit For Chanel’s Runway Includes Adidas Crazy 8’s & Denim

From the early days of his career, Kendrick Lamar has always been in a league of his own. The Compton native remains the only rapper to hold the honour of a Pulitzer Prize for his work on DAMN. Though he’s kept relatively quiet on the music front lately, he’s certainly keeping his presence felt overseas for Paris Fashion Week. Earlier this week, Lamar shared a new song in tandem with Chanel. The brand is using it to soundtrack a short film teasing today’s (January 23) runway presentation.

As Elle reports, the Spring/Summer 2024 collection was “an ode to the Chanel jacket,” which the father of two wore while sitting front row. On his Finstagram account this morning, Lamar showed off his posh black and white button-up. He wore it with light-wash jeans and a white tee. The brand is known for popularizing timeless accessories like pearls, some of which Kung-Fu Keny wore on his hat for the special occasion. “no bunk skunk. dave ghetto scorsese. hand shakes n hugs to pg lang. on kenzel washington,” he wrote in the caption of his photo dump.

On his feet, Lamar notably wore a fresh pair of Adidas sneakers, earning him love from followers. “Ni**a wore Crazy 8’s to Chanel show. Compton ni**as better,” a fellow Californian wrote in the rapper’s comments. “You and Dave not playing fair!!!” someone else chimed in, referring to Dave Free who also had the privilege of sitting front row.

Rihanna Goes All Black For Christian Dior Spring/Summer Show

Paris Fashion Week is underway this week and the celebrities are piling up. Unsurprisingly, Pharrell brought the musical world with him during his newest Louis Vuitton show. That included playing an old unreleased Miley Cyrus collab and even having Pusha T walk as a model in the show. Chris Brown was in attendance enjoying a performance by Gunna while re-igniting beef with Quavo. Yasiin Bey caught some heat online for his earlier take on Drake being pop-rap and also caught up with Solange. And just this morning J-Lo, Zendaya, and Hunter Schafer caught up during the Schiaparelli show.

But even amongst a sea of stunning fits Rihanna is attempting to rise above everybody else. She turned up over the weekend for the Christian Dior Haute Couture Spring/Summer show in an all black look. That included a black jacket, hat, and bag accessorized with a glistening silver necklace. Despite some praise from the fashion world for her look, fans in the comments aren’t convinced. “Baaabbbyyyyy you coulda came harder the hat throwing me TF off” one comment reads. But there are still some impressed by what she delivered. “We know she gone pull a look especially a layered one” another comment suggests. Check out the entire look below.

Rihanna’s Fashion Week Look

Rihanna made her own moves in the fashion world a few weeks ago. Savage x Fenty dropped their Valentine’s day collection, which is available now. In the announcement and promotion of the new lingerie line, RiRi herself serves as a model. The brand took to Instagram to share some scintillating shots of the singer sporting the recently released pieces.

In recent months, Rihanna has mostly focused on her family. She and rapper A$AP Rocky had their second child Riot last year. Her second pregnancy was famously announced during her Super Bowl Halftime show performance last year. What do you think of Rihanna’s look at the Christian Dior show? Do you think the outfit was too boring for such a massive star? Let us know in the comment section below.

Chris Brown Vibes To Gunna’s Performance During Paris Fashion Week

All week celebrities from across the fashion, music, and entertainment landscape are in Paris to watch some of the biggest names in fashion debut new work. Among those in attendance was Chris Brown, who is seemingly staying busy. After videos made the rounds online of him sitting next to Quavo during a show, he responded. Brown doubled down on his beef with the former Migos rapper in an Instagram comment maligning that he doesn’t get to pick where he sits. The post reminded some fans that the beef even existed in the first place as it’s been dormant for quite a while.

Eagle-eyed fans also spotted Chris Brown and Gunna at the same show. The pair were in attendance for the AMIRI show last week. But now even more videos of the duo are popping up. A new clip being shared online is of Gunna performing his smash hit “Fukumean” for a pretty packed crowd. It’s unclear if this is at the same show or not, but Brown is once again in attendance. He isn’t just there though, he’s seemingly having a pretty good time vibing along to the performance. The pair have collaborated once before on record. Gunna turned up for a feature on Brown’s song “Heat” from his 2019 album Indigo. Check out the video of Brown at Gunna’s Paris Fashion Week performance below.

Chris Brown Enjoying Himself At Gunna Show

Gunna wasn’t the only celeb that Brown made waves for crossing paths with recently. Last week he popped up courtside at a USC basketball game alongside Saweetie. Though the team itself has underperformed this year, many were focused on other things. The rapper is fresh off a relationship with YG which was formally ended earlier this month. While Brown and Saweetie don’t have any confirmed involvement, fans nonetheless jumped to conclusions seeing the pair together so shortly after her breakup.

What do you think of Chris Brown enjoying Gunna’s performance during Paris Fashion Week? Do you hope the pair collaborate again on something soon? Let us know in the comment section below.

Chris Brown Reveals He Still Dislikes Quavo After Paris Fashion Week Encounter

Chris Brown and Quavo have had tension for years now. It likely all dates back an encounter the singer and his entourage had with Migos all the way back in 2017. While it hasn’t exactly maintained that level of hostility in the years since there’s still bad blood. The pair most recently beefed back in 2021 with a pair of Instagram story posts aimed at each other. The posts argued over who would cook who in a game of basketball though it doesn’t seem like either artist ever put their money where their mouth is.

The beef was recently thrust back into the limelight when the pair popped up during a recent Paris Fashion Week show. Someone seemingly unaware of their history seated the pair right next to each other. Clips of them made the rounds online though nothing all that noteworthy seems to have happened between them during the event. But afterward Brown took to social media to remind everyone that there are hard feelings. “Can’t pick who u sit by. F*ck all that growth sh*t. N*gga not finna fumble my bag for little n*ggas,” Brown said on Instagram. Check out the videos of the pair sitting next to each other at the show below.

Chris Brown Re-ignites Quavo Beef

In the comments fans question how they even ended up next to each other at the show. “Whoever did the seating is messy asl,” one of the top comments on the post jokes. Other comments show how few fans even remember that the two were beefing in the first place. “I’m today years old when I found out they had beef” the most liked comment on the post reads.

Quavo wasn’t the only rapper Brown was spotted with during Fashion Week. He also crossed paths with Gunna at an AMIRI show. Brown was also hanging out with Saweetie at a basketball game last week shortly after her breakup from YG. What do you think of Chris Brown taking more shots at Quavo after the pair were forced to sit next to each other at a Paris Fashion Show event? Let us know in the comment section below.

Quavo, Key Glock & Jim Jones Came To Impress At Paris Fashion Week

Paris Fashion Week has, as expected, been a pretty eventful opportunity for hip-hop greats to link up and dress to impress. Moreover, we’ve seen a lot of clips as of late as to how the rap-verse is spending this stylish time, including a video of two incredible artists, Solange and Yasiin Bey (FKA Mos Def), chopping it up. In addition, we also saw a couple of clips over the weekend of Quavo, Jim Jones, and Key Glock having fun during the occasion, and so many more that popped up as cameos. Most importantly, it’s always heartening to see these artists show love to each other, be it for their drip or anything else.

For example, Key Glock had himself an amazing time at Paris Fashion Week, turning up the crowd at what seems like an afterparty with his smash hit “Let’s Go.” Not only that, but plenty of other rappers also popped up around his section to greet him and talk for a bit. These include J Balvin, Gunna, and Yeat, which is just about the wildest combination one could imagine for a collab. Jokes aside, the Memphis MC will hopefully continue his 2023 acclaim into 2024, because his hard work and consistency definitely merits it.

Key Glock Turns Up At Paris Fashion Week

Elsewhere during Paris Fashion Week, Jim Jones played the double role of famous rapper clubbing it up and model. He walked the runway with a lot of confidence in a big cream jacket and a striking burgundy ensemble underneath. In addition, Capo also hung out with Quavo and listened to a Takeoff track in the club, and we’re sure they always appreciate the opportunity to tribute their fallen friend. With all these parties in mind, any Parisian readers should probably keep a list of all the hot clubs, just in case.

Meanwhile, last year, other artists like FKA twigs debuted new material at Paris Fashion Week, which also makes events like these as special as they are. Even if we could never even dream of attending one day, it’s always cool to see hip-hop represented. We’ll see what else pops up concerning how rappers spent their PFW.

Solange And Yasiin Bey Chat During Paris Fashion Week In New Video

Yasiin Bey, previously known as Mos Def, has been at the center of quite a bit of discussion recently. So much so that a simple conversation with Solange after a fashion show earlier this week turned into news. It all started earlier this month when Bey was asked about Drake’s music in an interview. “Drake is pop to me. In the sense, like, if I was in Target in Houston, and I heard a Drake song. It feels like a lot of his music is compatible with… shopping. Or, as you know, shopping with an edge in certain instances,” Bey replied.

That statement didn’t sit right with many rap fans and fellow rappers. One who notably spoke out against Bey’s comments was NLE Choppa. He came to Drake’s defense against the allegations that he just makes pop rap. Drake himself also fired back with a post to his Instagram story. He shared an old video clip of Method Man claiming that rap is more about upholding the culture more than any specific sound or style. Drake hit back again in a more direct way earlier this week, calling Bey a “crackhead.” Check out that Yasiin Bey has been up to in the mean time below.

Yasiin Bey And Solange In Paris

Earlier this week the story got another twist. Yasiin Bey did a performance during a show at Paris Fashion Week that went viral for all the wrong reasons. He performed alone on a small stage mostly singing while runway models walked up and down either side of him. The performance had Drake fans questioning whether or not Bey was contributing to so called “real” hip-hop himself.

As it turns out Solange was in attendance at that same show. Afterward the pair caught up and cameras were ready to capture their conversation. What do you think of Solange and Yasiin Bey crossing paths at a fashion show where he gave a controversial performance? Let us know in the comment section below.

Moreover, their presence at the AMIRI fashion show is a testament to the seamless fusion of musical and sartorial talents, creating a harmonious blend of artistry that transcends traditional genres.

Lori Harvey & Damson Idris Among Paris’ Best-Dressed During Fashion Week

There are still a few more Paris Fashion Week events to attend before the season comes to a close. Still, already we’ve seen an abundance of headline-making celebrity antics (and outfits). Of course, Cher and AE Edwards surprised pop culture fanatics by reconciling their romance in time to sit front row. Elsewhere, Zendaya continued her streak of breaking necks at the Louis Vuitton presentation while Pete Davidson’s rumoured new lover, Madelyne Cline, shared a smooch with fellow actress Dove Cameron. Others who we’ve seen out and about in the City of Love are Damson Idris and Lori Harvey.

Despite what critics had to say early on, their relationship looks to only be growing stronger. Seeing as she’s been a socialite for all of her adult life, the Memphis-born beauty is used to being in the spotlight, and often harshly judged on her fashion statements. Thankfully, she’s refined her style while growing into womanhood, as shown in her stunning, navy Ferragamo dress below. The shiny fabric perfectly hugged Harvey’s hourglass figure. Her glamorous makeup proved that neither her face nor body card ever declines.

Surprisingly, it doesn’t look like Idris has been making appearances on the runway circuit with his girlfriend. Rather, he’s been accompanying her to evenings full of party-hopping and luxurious dinner dates around Paris. Seeing as the pair have done plenty of travelling together already, they’re likely accustomed to working in dates around each other’s busy schedules.

Apart from the runway shows and events she attended in Paris, Lori Harvey was also seen wearing Pinterest-worthy outfits during her time off too. On Sunday (October 1), she was photographed in a brown zip-up hoodie, schoolgirl skirt, tights, and knee-high boots, which she accessorized with a simple pair of black shades.
