Halle Bailey’s Son Halo Has Her Feeling More Inspired Than Ever

by

At the end of last year, Halle Bailey welcomed her first child with her boyfriend DDG, Halo. Since then, the Little Mermaid star has given fans throwback glimpses at her pregnancy journey, her transition to motherhood, and more. Based on their social media posts, the young couple is having a blast with the newest member of their family, surrounding themselves with loved ones and ignoring online negativity.

While baby Halo certainly arrived at a busy time in Bailey’s career, she hasn’t let being a parent slow her down. In fact, during a recent interview with The Associated Press at the Screen Actors Guild (SAG) Awards, she shared that she feels more inspired than ever to create. “I have never felt more creatively inspired in my whole life,” she told the outlet. “This is such a beautiful time for me because I truly feel like I’m venturing into my womanhood. I feel like a woman now, after having a baby. So, it opens up this whole other portal to write about stuff.”

She went on to tease some upcoming solo music, which she described as “a fusion of all the genres that [she loves].” For obvious reasons, fans are looking forward to hearing what she has in store for them, including her upcoming album with her sister Chloe. While details of that remain unclear, it’ll surely answer ongoing demands for a Chloe x Halle revival.

“It feels really, really great,” she told Billboard of the joint album at the Grammys. “It’s just, like, so nostalgic, and reminds us of our days when we did covers on YouTube.” What do you think of Halle Bailey’s recent comments about her son, Halo?

Aubrey Plaza’s Stylist Says She “Wanted Underboob” While Defending SAG Awards Look

by

This year’s SAG Awards ceremony was a celebration of some of the best in movies and TV. Unfortunately, one awkward onstage moment has been overshadowing many of the others. While the cast of The White Lotus was accepting their prize for Best Ensemble, Aubrey Plaza was reportedly informed by a costar that her “boob [was] hanging out.” Of course, the crowd couldn’t see the starlet’s full chest. Still, her Michael Kors gown did show off a bit of underboob all throughout the evening.

At this time it remains unclear exactly what was said to Plaza during the speech. Whatever it was, the angry expression on her face made it evident she wasn’t pleased. Cameras also caught her muttering obscenities like “Shit’s f*cked” and “Jesus Christ,” causing a definite stir online as viewers at home tried to piece together the drama unfolding. On Monday (February 27), a source close to the 38-year-old actress was able to provide some context.

Aubrey’s SAG Awards Slip-Up

“[Her anger] was a direct result of her almost being elbowed in her face,” they previously told DailyMail. The near-injury took place as the many performers were shuffling around the stage. Many female stars were notably being pushed to the back of the group as older male actors like Michael Imperioli and F. Murray Abraham addressed the crowd. She was obviously upset on Sunday evening. Thankfully, Plaza has since shared a photo dump on Instagram celebrating the HBO series’ big win.

In the caption, she wrote, “Best cast ever! I love these people and am so proud of this show. Thank you @sagawards.” Throughout various photos we see her celebrating, trophy in hand, on the red carpet with The White Lotus‘ other stars. She also found time to pose for pictures with Wednesday starlet Jenna Ortega, as well as Parks & Recreation costar, Amy Poehler.

Elsewhere online, Plaza’s stylist, Jessica Paster, is coming to the Delaware native’s defense over the look. As hateful comments have come pouring in, specifically about the garment’s fit, she’s clapped back with her side of the story. “The straps could be better adjusted. I love the colour, and hair and makeup look amazing,” one Instagram user wrote following the SAG Awards.

“Did seven fittings… For real… I wanted underboob,” Paster dished in the replies, making it known she and her client were attempting to turn heads with the gown’s centre cutout. Let us know what you thought of Aubrey’s outfit in the comments, and see our full red carpet roundup from the annual event here.

2023 SAG Awards Red Carpet: See All The Best-Dressed Celebrities

by

We celebrated some of the best in Black talent during Saturday’s (February 25) NAACP Image Awards. Afterward, the final eve of the weekend found many of the same faces at the 2023 Screen Actors Guild Awards. The ceremony markedly honours each year’s best in TV and film, as well as the best-dressed on the red carpet. This time, it was Everything Everywhere All At Once, Abbott Elementary, and The White Lotus that came out on top.

The latter series is an HBO Original that previously quickly rose in popularity. It was created by School of Rock actor Mike White. The hit show took home two awards last night. One was for Jennifer Coolidge’s iconic performance as Tanya and another for Best Ensemble in a Drama Series. The moment was undeniably huge for everyone involved. Still, Aubrey Plaza was obviously annoyed during her time on stage for the speech.

Audrey’s Awkward Moment

Following the ceremony, footage of the Parks & Recreation starlet has been making rounds on social media for several reasons. She appears to surprisingly be nearly elbowed and pushed out of the way by many costars on the platform. Surely that would bother anyone, but it was the next interaction that seemed to really set Plaza off.

In the middle of the speech, fellow performer Jon Gries obviously appears to make an upsetting comment. Many believe he told the Delaware native her chest was evidently slipping out of her Michael Kors gown. Immediately after the comment was quietly made, she accordingly adjusts her dress, anger obvious on her face. At various points, Plaza specifically seems to mouth, “Shit’s f*cked… Jesus Christ.”

Aubrey’s outfit certainly didn’t turn out the way she had hoped. Thankfully, other SAG Award patrons had far better luck. Zendaya finally gave fans an incredible serve two nights in a row. Elsewhere, Angela Bassett’s bright yellow gown had her glowing. Keep scrolling to see all our red carpet favourites, and check back later for more pop culture news.

Aubrey Plaza Mouths “Shit’s F*cked…Jesus Christ” During Awkward SAG Awards Speech, Social Media Reacts

by

It was an undeniably huge weekend for celebrity celebrations all around. Overseas in Milan, many were attending fashion shows put on by the likes of Gucci and Prada. Elsewhere, in America, stars flocked to two noteworthy ceremonies – the NAACP Image Awards, as well as the SAG Awards. The latter took place on Sunday (February 26) evening, and saw plenty of fantastic style moments as well as some hilarious antics.

Plenty of famous faces were honoured at the annual Screen Actors Guild ceremony, but as always, there were a few projects that came out on top. Everything Everywhere All At Once, The White Lotus, and Abbott Elementary were among them, though an ensemble acceptance speech for the Mike White-created series has been going viral online. In the circulating clip, Aubrey Plaza, who plays Harper in the second season, appears to markedly glare at her costars as they address the crowd.

The White Lotus Wins

After it was announced they had won the award for Best Ensemble in a Drama Series, several stars from the HBO series took to the stage. Among them were The Sopranos alum Michael Imperioli, Will Sharpe, and Jon Gries. At one point during their speech, the latter actor appears to caution Plaza that she’s on the verge of suffering a wardrobe malfunction via the chest cutout in her dress. It obviously remains unclear exactly what he said, but the Parks & Recreation star’s furious face and immediate decision to pull her dress down to hide her cleavage speaks volumes.

Several eagle eyed viewers noticed that Plaza’s antics didn’t stop there. As F. Murray Abraham was speaking about the victims in Syria, Turkey, Ukraine, and Russia, she appears to awkwardly mouth “Jesus Christ,” as if millions of people weren’t watching. Elsewhere, some believe she said “shit’s f*cked” while shuffling amongst the other actors who seemingly kept pushing her toward the back of the crowd.

Social Media Reacts To Aubrey’s Antics

Since the SAG Awards aired last night, social media has been having a field day dissecting The White Lotus cast’s tension on stage. “She looked like she haaaaated being up there and immediately ran off stage while everyone in the cast was congratulating and hugging each other,” one Twitter user pointed out. Others suggested that, perhaps Plaza had indulged in some marijuana before stepping out for the ceremony.

“People criticizing Aubrey Plaza’s face during the speech… Usually valid, BUT this time, she had just been told to fix her dress and underboob,” someone else explained in the 38-year-old’s defense. “Her mind was probably racing a mile a minute.” Keep scrolling for more reactions to The White Lotus‘ unusual acceptance speech, and check back later for more pop culture news.

Lady Gaga Addressed The Russia-Ukraine Conflict At The SAG Awards: ‘My Heart Really Goes Out To Ukraine’

Tonight is an important night for film and TV — it’s the 2022 SAG Awards. After the last several months of canceled events and virtual appearances, an in-person red carpet is a treat for stylists, who are back at work, and all the artists and creatives who are eager to celebrate their work together once more. Especially during a time when unease is spreading in other ways, due to the Russian invasion of Ukraine, it’s a welcome distraction for some. However, plenty of other artists and actors are more than willing to show their support for the suffering of the people in Ukraine, and Lady Gaga is one of them.

Gaga is up for several nominations for her work as Patrizia Reggiani in her second starring role in a major feature film, House Of Gucci, but still had plenty of time to discuss foreign politics on the red carpet. When E! correspondent Laverne Cox approached Gaga about the event, her succinct response acknowledged both the impact of Covid-19, and the situation in eastern Europe. “What story are you telling us tonight with this gorgeous, gorgeous ensemble?” Cox asked.

“The story I’m telling is the truth, which is that I’m just really honored to be here,” Gaga said. “This is a beautiful night when we get to celebrate art together, and celebrate each other. There’s so much going on in the world, and my heart really goes out to Ukraine. I think tonight we should all sit in the gratitude of this.”

Meanwhile, Gaga stans are on the exact same page as Mother Monster:
