Nicki Minaj’s Toned Tummy & Thighs Get Plenty Of Praise On Instagram

by

The last time Nicki Minaj treated her fans to a full-length album was in 2018 with the arrival of Queen. While she’s provided us plenty of hit singles, such as “Super Freaky Girl” and the more recent “Red Ruby Da Sleeze” as of late, the Barbz are still eager for details on the mother of one’s next project. It remains unclear exactly when she plans to drop, though we do know she recently launched a record label of her own and has been frequently hinting about signing Ice Spice.

Aside from making money moves in the music industry this year, Minaj has also been showing off her body on Instagram. This past week has chiefly seen the Trinidadian fearlessly flaunting her curves in various vacation looks, from a black, cut-out clad bathing suit to the tiniest pair of shorts we’ve seen in a minute. The latter is what she donned for her post on Friday (March 17), which has already been double-tapped over 1.5 million times.

Queen of Thirst T(rap)s

“Boi affi dead if he ever diss meeeeee,” the “Chun-Li” hitmaker wrote in her caption. “He know what to do if he ever miss meeee 🎀.” Unsurprisingly, Spice was in the comment section hyping Minaj up, as were other artists like Doechii and BIA, who couldn’t help but comment on her bodacious bod. “Thique 😍❤,” the former wrote, while the latter described the Queen of Rap as “Soo Petite 😍😍💕💕.”

The 40-year-old looks undeniably stunning in her IG photo, which finds her sporting long, black voluminous wavy hair and a full face of glam makeup. Her chest is (barely) covered by a tiny hot pink tank top, which matches the small bag worn around her undeniably snatched waist. The lyricist’s bottom half is mostly exposed, with an almost thong-cut pair of dark blue shorts covering the tops of her thighs. Keep scrolling to see more of Nicki Minaj’s recent thirst traps, as well as a preview of her upcoming music video for “Red Ruby Da Sleeze.”

Larsa Pippen & Marcus Jordan Embrace In New IG Post

by

Larsa Pippen and Marcus Jordan posed together for a new selfie on social media over the weekend. The two have been Instagram official since January. One point of contention about their relationship has been their age gap, with Pippen being 16 years older than Jordan. Prior to their romance, Larsa was married to Scottie Pippen, a former teammate of Marcus’ father, Michael Jordan.

When The Shade Room shared the selfie on its Instagram page, many fans defended the couple in the comments section. “Y’all keep acting outraged about the age difference but don’t keep that same energy with Cher dating a man 40yrs younger,” one user wrote. Another added: “’WhAt iF tHiS wAs tHe OtHeR wAy aRoUnD?!’ Michael Jordan’s wife is 20 years younger than him. Go be outraged on his page no one’s stopping y’all.”

Larsa has downplayed the age difference when asked about it in interviews. Speaking with Tamron Hall, last month, Larsa remarked, “Age doesn’t determine your level of maturity.” When pressed on whether it’s weird dating the son of her ex-husband’s former teammate, Larsa explained, “I didn’t plan it like that. We were just together a lot with our friends. You gotta remember — being with an athlete, you get scrutinized a lot. People don’t think you should have a life once you get divorced. I feel like I should have love and be able to date who I want and live happy and go wherever I wanna go and not be judged every time I’m seen with someone. It’s hard.”

Larsa and Scottie were married from 1997 through 2021 and share four children together: Scotty Jr., Preston, Justin, and Sophia. They first split up in 2016 but later reconciled soon afterward. Two years later they began the official separation process and have since moved on from one another. As for Scottie’s opinion on her dating Marcus, Larsa also told Tamron Hall, “The only conversations we have are based on our kids. I don’t ask him who he’s dating, he doesn’t ask me who I’m dating.”

Ice Spice Debuts New Hairstyle, Says She’s “Pretty Like Lauren”

by

Ice Spice is perhaps best known for her signature ginger afro. However, the New York rapper’s high school yearbook photos prove she’s capable of pulling off more than just one look. In the images making rounds online, Isis Gaston smiles wide for the camera, rocking long, straight, black hair. Immediately after seeing the pictures, Twitter users began comparing the rap diva to You People actress Lauren London.

Interestingly, the Bronx baddie seemingly addressed the lookalike gossip before it even began making rounds. On her “In Ha Mood” single she raps, “Like, what? Let’s keep it a buck / Bitches too borin’, got ’em stuck in a rut / Lamborghini roarin’ when I hop out the truck / Pretty bitch like Lauryn with a big ass butt, yup.” Of course, there’s no last name drop in the line, but it’s safe to assume that Spice is self-aware enough to recognize her resemblance to the starlet.

On Friday (February 10) night, the Like..? artist surprised her 3.6M Instagram followers with a new series of selfies. While her hair is its usual ginger colour throughout the photo dump, she’s ditched her usually bouncy curls for a sleek, shoulder-length style complete with a slicked-down side bang. “Pretty like Lauren,” she wrote in the caption, referencing the internet’s ongoing conversation about her doppelganger.

As per usual, the upload finds Spice showing off her curvy figure. She sports a vintage Jean Paul Gaultier top, paired with army green khaki pants and crisp white sneakers. Just above the waistband of her bands, a tiny black thong peaks out. In the second image, the redhead gives a closer look at the view from the back as she gazes at the circular mirror hanging in front of her.

Other snapshots circulating online seem to show Spice in the same outfit filming an MTV show. Later that night, though, she sat with celebrity friends like Julia Fox and Richie Shazam at Dion Lee’s F/W 2023 RTW runway during New York Fashion Week. Seeing as the shows are just getting started, it’s entirely possible we could see more stellar looks from the rising star in the coming days.

Doja Cat Rocks A “Pretty Beat” For Instagram So Her Haters Will “Shut The F*ck Up”

by

Her name has been one of the biggest in the industry for the last few years. However, Doja Cat has actually been making music for nearly a decade. In 2014, her Purrr! EP came out after Kemosabe and RCA Records heard her “So High” track. Since then, she’s gone on to release projects like 2019’s Hot Pink and 2021’s Planet Her.

Along with her growth as an artist, we’ve also seen some serious style evolution for the lyricist. She’s also stayed true to herself and embraced her inner uniqueness. Over the past year specifically, we’ve really seen Doja come into her own.

While several of her outfits have been nothing short of eyebrow-raising, the 27-year-old’s bold makeup choices are what’s really got people talking. In fact, when she shaved her own brows and head, it nearly broke the internet in 2022.

Subsequently, Doja filled the blank space on her forehead with all kinds of whimsical designs. Among them were floral prints to ultra-thin, high-arched lines with an adorable heart drawn over her signature mole. Some fans have been loving the creativity the “Say So” songstress is showing. More closed-minded audiences, though, have been quick to criticize her antics.

In her usual fashion, DC let the haters know that their comments can’t get her down. On Thursday (February 2) night, she shared a smiling selfie that finds her sporting a glamorous smokey eye and a blonde balayage wig. “Felt like doing a pretty beat for you boring ass lemon water bitches out there,” she wrote in the caption.

“So you can shut the f*ck up now and leave me the f*ck alone. Ciao,” her caption concluded. Afterward, Doja limited comments on the upload to keep her page a positive space.

Aside from calling out the internet trolls who have made a routine of hating on her unique style, Doja Cat has also been speaking out about music lovers who often discredit her as a rap artist.

Read what she told Variety during their cover story interview here, and check back later for more pop culture news.

Cardi B Shares Community Service Selfie: “Obey The Law”

by

One thing about Cardi B? She’s always going to manage to keep us laughing. Even though she’s in some legal trouble after failing to complete her 15-day community service sentence, the mother of two still got an extension from the judge – and was looking fabulous while doing it.

Earlier this month, the “Bodak Yellow” rapper found herself back in court. After pleading guilty to misdemeanour assault charges last fall, she had to complete half a month’s worth of public aid. It remains unclear specifically why she failed to meet the requirement. However, it’s been said that mourning Takeoff’s untimely death may have had something to do with it.

Thankfully, Cardi now has until March 1st to finish her sentence. If she failed to follow through this time, jail could be in the cards. Needless to say, the 30-year-old wasn’t willing to take that risk.

On Friday (January 20) morning, the Bronx baddie shared a mirror selfie flaunting her luxurious outfit of the day. Her long black hair is worn down in loose waves, and a ribbed, beige sweater hugs her curves. Bardi’s bottom half is clad with patchwork jeans and a pair of Margiela Tabi boots.

“Second day of community service,” she wrote in the caption. “Obey the law.” By the goofy look on the Grammy winner’s face, you can tell that she’s doing her best to make light of the situation.

While her Twitter feed has obviously been active today, it’s been a few days since Cardi posted on her Instagram. Earlier this week, she dropped off a photo dump that finds her in hot pink glam with glamorous honey-blonde hair.

Jason Lee appears in some of the later photos. The Invasion of Privacy artist is the first guest to appear on his new REVOLT podcast. During their interview, the fashionista got candid about her own plastic surgery journey, as well as what celebrities she’s gotten recommendations from.

Additionally, Cardi B revealed how she and Offset found out about Takeoff’s passing. Read more about that here, and check back later for more pop culture news updates.
