Chrisean Rock’s Barely There Baby Bump Was On Display At Yung Miami’s Birthday Party: Photos

by

Having a bun in the oven isn’t preventing Chrisean Rock from living her best life. Since announcing that she’s with child last month, the Crazy In Love star has kept busy with several projects. Among them are her “Lit” music video and Blueface’s “Dear Rock” visual. The latter of the two saw the troubled couple carry out a romantic wedding attended by celebrity friends like DDG. It presently remains unclear if the ceremony was legal.

They’ve had their share of drama in the past, but the 22-year-old sounds confident in her decision to carry her boyfriend’s baby. As it turns out, this isn’t their first time conceiving a child. Chrisean previously went through with three abortions to end prior pregnancies. This time around, the “Thotiana” artist denied paternity and demanded a DNA test. In the weeks since, though, the pair seems to have worked through their differences.

On Friday (February 3) night, the Baddies cast member hit the town. She stepped out sans her man to attend Yung Miami’s birthday party. For the turnt-up function, Rock donned a matching two-piece set made of printed pink and blue pants as well as a cropped long-sleeve top. Her midriff was on full display as the cameras snapped away.

For accessories, the expecting mother wore a simple but elegant diamond chain around her neck. It further draws attention to one of her many Blueface portrait tattoos in the area. Chrisean added a watch around her wrist and finished the look with silver high-top sneakers. Of course, she didn’t attend the party alone – her Zeus co-star, DJ Sky High Baby, joined her for an evening of fun and celebration.

Before she hit the red carpet for Yung Miami’s birthday celebration this weekend, Chrisean’s antics during a recent podcast interview gave her a moment in the spotlight. On The Perfect Network show, the Baltimore native and her man were chatting with hosts when Rock’s attitude distinctly shifted.

At the time, Blueface was getting a bit too chatty with Moniece Slaughter for her liking. While she made some unimpressed faces and comments to the camera, social media users are speculating that the “Rainy Days” artist wasn’t as confrontational as usual because she didn’t want smoke with the host, who’s known for her own dramatic antics. Read more about that beef here, and check back later for more pop culture updates.

Uproxx, Circulate, and Bricks & Wood Teamed Up To Celebrate The BMC And The Legacy Of Black Music

by
UPr

The Black Music Collective officially kicked off Grammy weekend last night with its annual Global Impact Award gala, an event that saw prominent Black creators and professionals from the music industry gather for a celebration of music and representation. This year’s event, which was held at the Hollywood Palladium, was particularly special as it marked the 50th anniversary of hip-hop. As such, the gala honored some of the biggest icons of the genre including Missy Elliot, Dr. Dre, Lil Wayne, and music industry executive Sylvia Rhone.

To celebrate the mission of the BMC, which seeks to highlight the inclusion, recognition, and advancement of Black music and its creators and professionals in the industry, Uproxx linked up with two of LA’s buzziest streetwear designers, Corey Populus of Circulate and Kacey Lynch of Bricks & Wood for a special t-shirt capsule collection that highlighted hip-hop’s 50th as well as this year’s Grammy theme, ‘Love Music.’

“The main inspiration behind this collaboration was definitely music,” says Populus, “Design and music to me go hand and hand… One of my favorite designers, Reid Miles, gained a lot of notoriety for creating the blueprint for how jazz records looked having done all of the Blue Note Records covers.”

The five t-shirt collection consisted of graphic designs that played off of the Grammy’s annual theme, made reference to the BMC gala, and recalled the iconic jazz album covers of the past filtered through a contemporary lens. One of the highlights of the collection also makes reference to a now-famous photo of Tyler the Creator receiving his first Grammy for Best Rap Album, which he took in home in 2019 for IGOR.

“I thought it would be cool to create this fake Jazz band called the Circulate Trio and pretty much this was a jazz love record by the Circulations, which was then presented by Uproxx and Circulate Records. I also chose purple/gold to represent LA,” says Populus, showing the deep attention to detail and affection for storytelling through visual design that makes Circulate such a vital brand in our contemporary streetwear scene.

The shirts were gifted at the gala to VIP attendees, making them officially some of the rarest designs to ever come out of Circulate and Bricks & Wood. Consider each of these shirts a grail!

The 65th Grammy Awards show will air live this Sunday, February 5th. Take a look at each design as well as highlights from last night’s BMC event below.

Meagan Good Brought Blonde Bombshell Energy To Amazon’s “Harlem” Season 2 Premiere

by

In the world of celebrity relationships and marriages, breakups and divorces obviously aren’t all that uncommon. While they’re undeniably emotionally tumultuous to navigate, several famous women have been showing us lately that the end of a romance doesn’t mean life isn’t worth living. Among them are Kim Kardashian and Nia Long. Recently, Meagan Good also joined the ranks. She looked absolutely stunning as she graced the pink carpet last night.

The 41-year-old stepped out for the season two premiere of Amazon Prime’s Harlem series. In the show, the California native stars alongside Jerrie Johnson, Grace Byers, and finally, Shoniqua Shandai. The group plays four ambitious best friends navigating life, personal relationships, and career growth.

The show has quickly become a fan favourite on the streamer. Season one previously arrived in December of 2021. To kick off 2023, the latest edition landed on Thursday (February 2).

Along with the episodes making their way onto Prime yesterday, Good also hit the town with her co-stars to celebrate. For her big night out, the Day Shift actress donned an all-white outfit. It was complete with thigh-high snake print boots and a curve-hugging dress complete with several cutouts.

At this time, Meagan hasn’t posted any photos from the event on her own Instagram feed, but those are sure to come later.

Several have already been circulating online thanks to paparazzi snaps, many of which show Good grinning from ear to eat, her toned abs on display beneath her sultry outfit of the night.

Apart from her good looks, Meagan’s divorce from Devon Franklin has also been keeping her name in the headlines over the past year. The couple finalized their settlement in April of last year, and just last month, the actress revealed that Whoopi Goldberg was one of her famous friends who had some advice to offer the starlet.

Read what The View host had to say to Good here, and let us know if you’ll be watching season two of Harlem on Amazon Prime below.

Lil Wayne Helps Launch OVO x NFL Campaign 

by

Drake’s OVO tapped Lil Wayne as the face of the clothing brand’s new NFL collection.

The Canadian brand shared the first look at the OVO x NFL collection, starring Lil Wayne prior to SBLVII. Weezy dons a letterman jacket inspired by his favorite team, the Green Bay Packers. The jacket is decorated with the team’s logo and the OVO emblem. There’s also another photo that includes a Packers-inspired take on the traditional OVO hoodie. The hoodie includes the NFL logo on one arm and the National Football Conference’s symbol on the other.

The OVO/NFL collection will launch later this week on Friday, Feb. 3rd. With the Super Bowl around the corner, items will undoubtedly sell out quickly. 

Aside from his recent campaign for OVO, Lil Wayne announced that he’s hitting the road this spring. The rapper shared the dates for the upcoming Welcome To Tha Carter tour, which will bring the Young Money head honcho to 28 cities. The tour kicks off on April 4th in Minneapolis, MN, before he heads to cities like Chicago, Detroit, New York, Los Angeles, Atlanta, and Philly.

The tour announcement, of course, fuels speculation surrounding new music. Weezy announced Tha Carter VI during OVO Fest last year before a pre-sale link went live days later. However, he hasn’t provided any extensive updates surrounding the project.

He and DJ Drama also hinted at the release of Dedication 7 in previous years, though neither shared a concrete update recently.

For now, we could atleast hope that Lil Wayne has a new single or two in the cut ahead of his upcoming tour.

Chloe Bailey’s Booty Was Out Non-Stop During Dubai & Brazil Vacations: Photos

by

Between her stunning Instagram photos and her new single, “Pray It Away,” Chloe Bailey’s name has markedly been on the tip of countless tongues lately. She previously started 2023 with a photoshoot wearing a salacious golden bikini. Now, her efforts are primarily focused on the promotion of her upcoming debut album.

The Atlanta-born entertainer dropped her song and its accompanying music video on Friday. Throughout the visual, she sports various different looks. Among them are an elegant white dress and long, bright red locs that stand out in contrast to her neutral-coloured outfits.

It seems Bailey filmed at least parts of “Pray It Away” recently, as she rocks the same bold hairdo in her latest IG upload. On Monday (January 30), the R&B starlet shared a “Dubai/Brazil dump” with her 5.7 million followers.

She travelled to the United Arab Emirates earlier this month in support of her mentor Beyoncé. The mother of three allegedly earned $45M for her one-hour performance in the luxurious eastern country. Other famous faces at the show were Nia Long, Terrence J, Kendall Jenner, and Jay-Z.

Of course, Queen B was the main event. However, Bailey still found other fun activities to try out during her travels. She obviously spent plenty of time out on the water, kicking her dump off with a bootylicious snapshot of her posing for the camera on a water floaty.

Next up, the 24-year-old looks to have tried her hand at parasailing. In a video, she and a men float over the astounding green and blue landscape below them. They’re clearly enjoying the birds-eye-view experience.

Other uploads see Bailey smiling big while spending time with little ones, jet skiing, practicing her jumps, and showing off the sun-kissed freckles quickly spreading across her face from so much fun in the Sun.

Are you excited to hear Chloe Bailey’s debut solo album, In Pieces, this March? Let us know in the comments, and check back later for more pop culture news updates.

Rihanna Reportedly Files “Fenty Kids” Clothing Line Trademark

by

Rihanna reportedly filed a trademark for a “Fenty Kids” clothing line, although that doesn’t mean she’s starting one anytime soon. However, the trademark does protect the name from use by other entities. Moreover, reports indicate that the star singer and upcoming Super Bowl halftime show performer filed on January 20th.

Furthermore, the motion describes the trademarked line as including “infant wear, swimwear, hats, underwear, footwear, leggings, socks,” and lots more. In fact, the patent even included baby bibs, booties, caps, and cloth diapers. While it seems hilariously exhaustive, you’d be surprised at how important it is to keep your patent affairs in order. Given Rihanna’s status, exposure, and variety of endeavors, she made a smart move.

Overall, the line’s products support a child from birth to toddler status, at least based on the described items. However, the trademark doesn’t mean that the “Diamonds” artist is guaranteed to launch a line in the future. In fact, it just means that other entities from infringing on the Fenty name.

Meanwhile, Rihanna filed for a trademark of “Fenty Hair” back in March of 2021. According to Highsnobiety, it protects “several hair products, from straightening devices to medicated treatments for dandruff.” Still, the mother of one is busier than ever, with a whole spectacle to organize for next week.

Moreover, Apple Music just launched their “Rihanna’s Road to Halftime” campaign. Among other elements, they’ll release an interview with Rihanna ahead of her Super Bowl performance. Also, the initiative gave fans the chance to listen to her incredible catalog in Spatial Audio. Additionally, new content includes programming for a series on past Super Bowl performances and one dedicated to the star herself.

“Rihanna is one of the most prolific artists of our time, and we, along with her many fans across the globe, cannot wait to see her take the stage at the first Apple Music Super Bowl Halftime Show,” Apple’s VP of Apple Music and Beats, Oliver Schusser, stated. “We are excited to celebrate Rihanna, and give her fans a new way to experience her music with Spatial Audio, as well as exclusive content from Apple Music.”

Still, what do you think of Rihanna filing a trademark for “Fenty Kids”? Whatever the case, let us know in the comments down below. Also, as always, log back into HNHH for the latest on Rihanna and her many hats.

Shemar Moore Rocks “Baby Girl” Beanie In Adorable New Photos With Daughter Frankie

by

Baby fever looks to be running rampant as of late. More and more celebrities continue to post adorable content with their newborns on social media. This past weekend we saw Jhené Aiko and Big Sean singing to their son, Noah, on TikTok, and Diddy couldn’t help but draw attention to his adorable little one, Love. On Sunday (January 29), Shemar Moore also joined the club, dropping off some sweet selfies with his newborn daughter.

If you ever tuned into Criminal Minds, you may have seen the California-born actor’s character, Derek Morgan, often referring to his on-screen coworker, Penelope Garcia, as “baby girl.” He previously left the show behind during its eleventh season. However, Moore is clearly doing his part to keep the FBI agent’s legacy alive in his real life.

In yesterday’s upload, the Hollywood heartthrob sits back on the couch with his infant laying on his chest. On his head is a black beanie with the words “baby girl” embroidered in bright green across the front. Sunglasses cover the new father’s eyes, and a cloth is thrown over one shoulder to prevent any potential mess from his child.

“Baby Girl Frankie n Daddy!!!” he wrote in the caption. The adorable infant sports a beanie on her head, much like her father. Rather than an identical match, though, hers is light pink in colour and lacks the same nickname stitching.

As PEOPLE notes, Moore and his girlfriend Jesiree Dizon welcomed their daughter just last week, on January 24th.

This is the entertainer’s first child. The Solver actress, for her part, has a 5-year-old daughter, Charli, from a past relationship with Stephen Bishop. Additionally, she shares a son, Kaiden, from another expired romance.

Daddy duty is certainly at the top of his priority list now, but Moore has still been making time for occasional public appearances. Earlier this month, he sat down with Jennifer Hudson on her talk show, during which the 52-year-old admitted he was once rejected by Alicia Keys.

Read everything Shemar had to say about that experience here, and check back later for more pop culture news updates.

Latto Reacts After Haters Call Her Out For Wearing Same Panties In Different Photos

by

Latto has obviously never been one to let the internet dull her confidence. This weekend, the 777 hitmaker reminded haters of that while expertly clearing one of them on Twitter. On Sunday (January 29), account user @extraathique shared two curvaceous photos of the rap diva on social media, accusing her of outfit repeating.

For any normal person, sporting the same look generally isn’t questionable. For one of the most well-known up-and-coming lyricists, however, there’s far more pressure to keep your wardrobe looking fresh and fierce.

Interestingly, the photos the Twitter user is comparing don’t specifically find Latto donning the same threads. Still, she does tease a sneaky look at what appears to be the same pair of cheetah-print panties in both images. Apparently, wearing the same pair more than once is a carnal celebrity sin.

“Can’t afford new panties?” they asked the fashionista in the caption. It’s worth noting that they failed to officially tag her in the mean post. On the left, the Atlanta-based starlet wears a hot pink Juicy Couture sweatsuit. She looks in the bathroom mirror while a photographer captures her bodacious behind.

In the right image, Latto opted for a Canadian tuxedo look, sporting low-rise denim jeans with flashy pocket bling and a fur-trimmed cropped jacket as she looks back at the cameraman.

While she may not have been directly mentioned, the 24-year-old still got word of the hate and didn’t hesitate to clap back at the immature account.

“Oh no, it’s the panty police,” she drily wrote, earning upwards of 90K likes since yesterday afternoon.

Many are coming to Latto’s defence in the replies. “N*ggas really finna act like they ain’t ever washed and wore the same pair of draws before,” one person clapped back.

“Bruh there’s packs of like 12 or more you can get on Amazon that all look like that,” another pointed out. “@Latto is right and wants to stay that way,” someone else chimed in. “Continue to be normal. Your true supporters respect it. Don’t go broke to keep up with social media opinions.”

Aside from the internet haters dissing her for getting sufficient wear out of her panties, Latto has also been keeping her fans entertained with new music. This past weekend, she dropped off a freestyle over SZA’s S.O.S. joint, “Smoking On My Ex Pack.”

Listen to that here, and check back later for more pop culture news updates.

Jordyn Woods Responds To TikToker Critiquing Her “Overpriced” Clothing Brand: Watch

by

Despite the endless resources celebrities have at their disposal to make their brands top quality for their fans, they still end up missing the mark. In the past, we’ve seen Kim Kardashian criticized for various products she’s released. Her little sister Kylie Jenner’s swim line was also an infamous fail. Now, the latter’s former best friend, Jordyn Woods, is being accused of releasing “overpriced” clothing – according to one TikToker, anyway.

Earlier this week, @thestellawilliams, a Black fashion creator, made a video giving her first impression on several dresses ordered from Woods by Jordyn. In the caption of the clip, she made her opinion obvious, writing “Count your mf days. Be soooo [f*cking] fr rn.”

Throughout the now-viral clip, the plus-size fashion influencer talks about the product’s quality. Specifically, she compares it to that of the disgraced fast-fashion company, Shein. “It’s so bad, I just unfollowed the brand,” Williams revealed. “I would never, ever have any of my followers spend $123 on these dresses. It just feels like a cash grab.”

“Not trying to be dramatic, but the stuff is so cheap feeling,” she explains. “It literally feels like the clearance section of Shein. “I’m this close to unfollowing Jordyn Woods because I actually feel disrespected as a Black woman.”

Of course, it wasn’t long before the California creative herself saw the review, and unlike other celebrities who hide when hit with hate, she faced it head-on, sharing a response on her own TikTok page.

To begin the video, Woods took a moment to thank Williams for her comments. “OK I just want to lead with wow you look phenomenal in the dress, I honestly think you look so good. Thank you for buying the dress – you look great.”

She then added, “I also want to thank you for bringing so much exposure to my brand being that we just launched Monday. There’s always room for constructive criticism and I’m always listening to the consumer to see how I can get better and improve. I will say there is a way to be honest and real without bringing other people down and other influencers into it.”

“Opinions are subjective until you have felt the material and you know, some people are going to love it and some people aren’t going to like it,” the Life of Kylie star pointed out. “That’s just what it is with everything.”

#stitch with @thestellawilliams Stella the dress looked beautiful on you! 🤍
