Coi Leray Is On A Journey To Becoming Her Best Self

by

Coi Leray has certainly come a long way since her rise to fame, and according to her, it’s all been intentional. During a recent interview with Forbes, the hitmaker chatted about how she keeps herself grounded amid her success and constantly strives to become a better version of herself. She revealed that aside from keeping people around who hold her accountable, she always pushes herself to improve.

“I have great intentions,” she began. “And I know that at the end of the day, if I just pushed myself to focus on becoming a better me whether it’s in my tone, my delivery, my attitude, my routine of waking up in the morning, waking up earlier, going to church every Sunday, writing in my journal, that’s how I got to this place now.“

Coi Leray’s Personal Evolution Wasn’t An Accident

“I’m blessed to also have such amazing people in my life to keep me levelheaded,” she also added. “So I’ll call them and be like ‘yo’ and if I’m in a place where I say something or do something, they’ll check me. They’ll check me in a way where they’ll be ‘you should have approached it in this way, you could have handled it like this’ and you know what, you’re right.” Fortunately, this approach also allows Coi to remain cool, calm, and collected even in the face of adversity. Last week, for example, she weighed in on the newly passed TikTok ban bill and didn’t seem concerned at all.

“TikTok is not a streaming platform,” she told Twitter/X followers. “And I never looked at it as one. I’m not worried. As long as you don’t take away Apple Music, Spotify, Soundcloud, Tidal, [Audiomack], YouTube Music, Amazon Music, I’m good. Music and the love I have for it, is forever.” What do you think of Coi Leray sharing how she’s working on becoming a better version of herself?

Lizzo’s Booty-ful Thirst Trap Reminds Us She’s “Never Beating The Fat-A** Allegations”

by

Lizzo is tired of hearing other people’s opinions about her body. However, that doesn’t mean she plans on keeping it to herself. On Sunday (June 4), her Instagram feed once again lit up with a thirst trap. This one gives an up-close and personal view of her behind modelling a look from her Yitty clothing line. In the caption, the Detroit native got ahead of any potential haters, writing, “Never beating the fat-ass allegations 🍑.”

The 35-year-old is no stranger to showing off her plus-size figure online in an effort to spread more self-love. Despite her attempts to keep things positive in her space, Lizzo has been constantly plagued with critics questioning why she doesn’t weigh less if she puts in so much work on stage. No matter how many times the accusations of overeating and being lazy are addressed by her, the “Truth Hurts” singer can never seem to satisfy everyone. She’s since learned how to accept her body for what it is and is asking others to do the same.

For the most part, the comments have been positive, praising the Detroit native for her boundless confidence. SZA dropped by to show her “Special (Remix)” collaborator some love. Many others left lengthy comments explaining how Lizzo being fat doesn’t necessarily mean that she’s unhealthy. “It’s hilarious to me that people who ‘hate this so much’ take the time to stop and comment, knowing that every time someone replies to them, or they want to respond, they have to come right back here and see this ‘repulsive’ picture all over again,” one IG user pointed out. “Tell me again how gross you think it is.”

Elsewhere in the news, Lizzo recently took to TikTok to detail her fitness plans for the future, making it abundantly clear that she doesn’t “ever want to be thin.” Read everything that she had to say at the link below, and check back later for more music/pop culture news updates.

Janelle Monáe Explains Her Recent Antics: “I’m Much Happier When My Titties Are Out”

by

Janelle Monáe is going through changes, and the world is definitely taking notice. Over the past month, we’ve seen the singer bare her body more than ever before, happily showing off her breasts not only during a live performance but also on the cover of Rolling Stone. The latter was shared with the world on Monday (May 22), with Monáe posing in front of a blank white background wearing nothing but a golden headpiece to cover her hair.

“Janelle Monáe: Freer Than Ever,” the headline reads. In the accompanying story, the Dirty Computer songstress touches on not only her recent NSFW antics but also her upcoming album, The Age of Pleasure. Regarding the former, the 37-year-old has made it abundantly clear that she’s “much happier when [her] titties are out and [she] can run around free.” According to Monáe, a deep personal evolution has allowed her to become “more nude, more present, and less anxious.”

As for her upcoming album, Janelle says that it has a wide variety of influences behind it. “It was inspired by all of my friends, my community of folks who are from South Africa, Ghana, Nigeria, the Caribbean, Atlanta, L.A., Chicago. Seeing all of us together in our Blackness, in the love that we had in our eyes for each other,” she expressed to Rolling Stone.

It remains unclear which collaborators Monáe will be connecting with – if any – on the project. So far she’s given fans two singles, “Float” with Seun Kuti and Egypt 80 and more recently, “Lipstick Lover,” to hold us over until the quickly approaching official release date on June 9.
