Chloe Bailey Responds To Followers Accusing Her Of Photoshopping Snatched Performance Photos

Despite their massive bank accounts, many celebrities often get caught for photoshopping faux pas on social media. Rather than hiring a professional, many will FaceTune images themselves. Usually, this promptly lands them a spot as the internet’s laughing stock for that day. Earlier this weekend, Chloe Bailey made it clear that she’s not one to alter her uploads after a fan called out her obviously snatched waist.

The speculation began after the Atlanta-born artist posted on Friday (February 17). She was wearing a skin-tight blue and white sporty outfit for a performance. “Put me on the team coach. #AllStar,” she wrote in the caption, referencing yesterday’s celebrity game. While her body has often gets praise for its bodacious shape, many are taking notice that Bailey looks particularly thin around her midsection.

“Is this real or photoshop?” one person wrote in the comments with a series of eye-roll emojis. A more positive criticism reads, “I love you girl, but the photoshop is too much here. Your body is amazing without it. This doesn’t look real.” Rather than lash out in response to the trolls, Bailey took the response as a compliment.

The “Do It” songstress replied, “I love you too. It’s the combo of a corset, latex, and the lower angle. I love my body when I have extra weight on me. I love my body when I get snatched because I’m dancing a lot.” She went on to note that the videos included later in the post match the photos. This seemingly proves that nothing has been altered on her end.

“Y’know I love editing but I’ve been working hard on my body,” she explained. “I take that as a compliment, thank you.” Many have since praised Bailey for her handling of the hate, also going on to celebrate the time she’s been putting in to achieve her physical goals.

Elsewhere in the news, the 24-year-old is facing backlash for her decision to release a single with Chris Brown. The R&B star’s allegations from various women have led many to cancel him over the years though he still maintains an impressive roster of collaborators.

Kim Mulkey Takes Courtside Fashion To A Whole New Level

If there is one thing LSU Women’s basketball head coach Kim Mulkey knows how to do besides winning (and retaining a major ego), it is pulling off showstopper looks courtside. You might have seen a couple of her looks already on social media since she happens to be trending on TikTok. Most of her outfits contain a statement blazer, sweater, or business-approved high heels.

The Lady Tigers’ coach is winning both on the court, and in her closet. According to WBRZ, Queen of Sparkles boutique owner and designer Jamie Glas is responsible for designing some of her most iconic pieces. Kim Mulkey is clearly not a minimalist when it comes to her fashion choices, making statements with every new look. Additionally, statements are also made on the court, with her team holding a record of 24-1 and placing 2nd in the SEC thus far.

A Look into Kim Mulkey’s Wardrobe

Kim Mulkey prefers to wear heels over any other footwear while coaching, giving her the unofficial title of best-dressed women’s coach. She wears satirical pieces adorned with sequin-embellished tigers that complement her team. Sequins are not the only material Mulkey is accustomed to sporting. Feathers seem to be her other best friend, wearing several pieces with feathers attached to the sleeves. “As far as the clothes are concerned, I have lots of friends. People know I love to dress up and they will see something in the stores and buy it and bring it by the house. I’ll either like it or I won’t like it. If I do, I’ll give them a check for it. I really don’t know all the new styles. I leave that up to people much more knowledgeable than me. If it just feels good and looks good on me, I wear it.” Kim Mulkey tells The Advocate.

There is no question that her bold style choice coincides with her bold personality when coaching. On February 12th, the LSU Tigers faced their biggest challenge of the season playing the South Carolina Gamecocks. Although they lost by a tremendous 24 points, Mulkey never doubted the team. She maintained high spirits throughout the duration of the game. All in all, Kim Mulkey has remained a prominent figure in women’s college basketball and has now reached full-fledged fashion icon status.

Rihanna On Her Son Wearing Pink & Florals: “Fluidity In Fashion Is Best”

Much like his parents, Rihanna and A$AP Rocky’s son is well on his way to becoming a “Fashion Killa.” The young one’s mother has been designing her own Fenty products and putting together show-stopping outfits for years. His father is also a well-known style icon and has never been one to shy away from mixing women’s clothing into his wardrobe. In fact, he even once described wearing pieces intended for the opposite sex as “punk.”

At the same time, the “Rude Boy” hitmaker’s looks – although often sexy in nature – incorporate masculine pieces like graphic tees, jerseys, and baggy pants frequently. Their little one is just 9 months old. Still, they’re already passing off everything they know about looking fly to him (talk about generational wealth!). During her recent interview with British Vogue, Rih was candid about her plans for dressing her baby.

“One of my favourite outfits he has is a miniature version of one of Rocky’s,” she explained. She was referencing a tartan kilt and ripped jeans that her partner previously wore on the cover of GQ. “I like to dress him in things that don’t look like baby clothes. I like to push it.”

When purchasing pieces for the baby, Rihanna doesn’t limit herself to the typical blue colour scheme for boys. “I put him in floral stuff, I put him in hot pink, I love that,” she gushed to the outlet. “I think that fluidity in fashion is best, I always shop in the men’s department, you know.”

Since she began sharing photos of him last December, Rihanna’s little one has been the talk of the town. Of course, we still don’t know his name. However, we are certain that he’ll make an excellent big brother in just a few months’ time. At this time, the only thing fans are more desperate for than updates on her offspring is information on her next album.

The 34-year-old hasn’t blessed our ears since 2016’s ANTI – apart from her recent work on the Black Panther: Wakanda Forever soundtrack. It remains unclear exactly what RiRi has in store for her next project, or when we’ll see it land. She previously said it would be “ridiculous” for her not to drop in 2023, however, so chances are good we’ll be satisfied before the year is up. Read more about that here, and check back later for more pop culture news updates.

Ciara Sports MSCHF Big Red Boots & A Michael Jackson Graphic Tee

We’ve seen some undoubtedly questionable fashion trends throughout the years. The latest craze to have everyone talking is MSCHF’s Big Red Boots. All month long, various celebrities have been stepping out in the undeniably obnoxious footwear, either earning praise for taking a style risk or being totally trashed by trolls. Fivio Foreign mostly received the latter, while Coi Leray conversely seems to be influencing people with her look.

On Thursday (February 16), Ciara revealed that she too is finally buying into the trend. The southern-born songstress posted a video on several social platforms that finds her singing her upcoming “DaGirls” track. For her outfit of the day, the mother of three donned sunglasses, layered chains, and an oversized Michael Jackson graphic tee.

The red elements on her shirt obviously match MSCHF’s boots, making for what some would argue is a very cute outfit. Of course, not everyone is a fan – and the haters certainly haven’t been quiet about speaking their opinion. “It’s giving Olive Oyl!!” one person joked, markedly comparing CiCi to Popeye’s animated wife.

“We need to start calling the cops on anyone wearing these boots. Stop trying to make fetch happen,” another user declared, expertly quoting Gretchen Weiners from Mean Girls. Thankfully, it hasn’t all been hate in the 37-year-old’s replies. “Only [you] could pull this off, beautiful queen,” a fan praised her on Twitter.

Other celebrities to step out in the MSCHF Big Red Boots lately include Iggy Azalea and Pardison Fontaine. The former paired hers with a red thong. She chiefly put her curves on display while the latter shared a photo in his amid rumours that he and Megan Thee Stallion have split. They officially went on sale earlier this week, though they’ve since sold out and are going for upwards of $1,000 on StockX.

Ciara’s Instagram feed has been lighting up with stylish content since 2023 began. In fact, at the top of the year, followers began speculating that the “1, 2 Step” hitmaker is with child again after she appeared to hide her stomach in a post. The rumours have since seemingly been put to bed, but you can still read all about them here.

Kris Jenner & Corey Gamble Engagement Rumours Fly As She Rocks $1.2M Diamond Ring

Over the years, the Kardashian-Jenner women have been publicly linked to an impressive roster of celebrity men. Matriarch Kris Jenner had her first three children with high-profile attorney Robert Kardashian. They eventually went their separate ways due to infidelity. He ultimately died after a tragic battle with cancer, and the reality starlet moved on with Olympic athlete Caitlyn Jenner, who’s the father of her youngest two daughters.

Since the 67-year-old and her ex-husband went their separate ways in 2013, a lot has changed for both of them. The transgender star has moved further away from the spotlight. At the same time, the mother of six is constantly finding new ways to step into it. One thing that certainly caught the public’s attention is when she began dating Corey Gamble, who’s 25 years her junior.

As Page Six notes, they’ve been together since 2014. They currently live in a Calabasas mansion together next to Khloé Kardashian. The couple has had their shares of ups and downs over the years, and at times, Jenner’s children have openly questioned Gamble’s motives. He’s always been a highly private person, and to this day not much is known about him by the general public.

Regardless of any past drama, the lovers seem to be happier than ever as they’re currently facing plenty of engagement speculation. Earlier this week, the famous momager flaunted a massive diamond ring on her Instagram Story. The heart-shaped rock was shown on her ginger while her hand was placed on top of Gambles. No caption was provided, but that hasn’t stopped the internet from speculating.

“Did you see Kris’ latest [IG] story? A new ring from him? Engaged?” Reddit users began pondering. “I was thinking engagement,” one response agrees. Another person chimed in, “A Kris wedding sounds like fun content for the show.” Of course, the theories don’t confirm anything, but Page Six did get the scoop on Jenner’s exquisite new jewelry.

Kyron, Keogh, ROX’s Managing Director and Co-founder tells them, “Fit for Kardashian royalty, Kris Jenner’s ring is the picture of romance, and looks like a heart cut of approximately 10 carats, with baguette diamonds on either side.” He also mentioned that “Heart-cut diamonds are one of the most sought-after diamond shapes and are becoming increasingly popular amongst fiancés-to-be who are not afraid to stand out.”

This isn’t the first time Gamble and his long-time partner have caused wedding rumours to fly. Last year, Khloé confronted her mom during an episode of The Kardashians about similar rumours, which Kris promptly shut down. Do you think the couple will be walking down the aisle anytime soon? Let us know below, and check back later for more pop culture news updates.

Teyana Taylor Was Dripped In Denim At The Christian Cowan Fall-Winter Showcase

Singer and actress Teyana Taylor was among many who attended the Christian Cowan Fall/Winter 2023 show yesterday. The singer is no stranger to pulling off looks, as shown through her Instagram. Moreover, her sense of style can also be seen through her role as Creative Director at PrettyLittleThing. According to Women’s Wear Daily, “I’ve always had a love for fashion, different looks, and clothes,” said Taylor. She first partnered with PrettyLittleThing as the face of its collab with designer Karl Kani.

The Christian Cowan show provided dramatic looks referencing female icons who have impacted the queer community. Subsequently, it was only fitting for Teyana Taylor to be in attendance. The label upped the anti on their signature party-girl theme for fall, becoming slightly more mature for the Fall/Winter season, with tailored silhouettes and silky lustrous fabrics. According to Paper Magazine, “The collection had several of Cowan’s flamboyant signatures like feathered veils, crystal fringe, and latex gloves. There were a few show-stopping accessories, too, including giant feathered headdresses”.​

Equally important was Teyana’s look for the show. The outfit completely diverted from the collection’s aesthetic. Teyana Taylor sizzled the front row with a topless denim-on-denim look reflecting a staple Y2K trend. Overtop, she wore a structured navy blue denim blazer adorned with jeweled designs over the breast that resembled a faux bra. She styled the blazer with a matching pair of high-waisted dark blue jeans. The jeans were also bedazzled with jewels over her midriff.

Finally, to accessorize further, Teyana added some gold jewelry such as necklaces and body chains. To keep the gold theme going, she added a gold ear cuff. She finished the look off with circle-framed sunglasses and a complimentary navy New York Yankee’s fitted. For footwear, she added a classic pair of Timberland boots. Additionally, Lil Nas X, Sam Smith, Bella Thorne, and Orville Peck were all present at the show, wearing equally dramatic looks reflecting the ensembles exhibited on the runway. Furthermore, Teyana Taylor was spotted at several other fashion shows this week. She wore an all-red getup (giving total Rihanna super bowl vibes) at the LaQuan Smith showcase. Teyana also made waves in a multi-patterned suit and tie look at the Thom Browne show.

Michael B. Jordan Explores His Personalities For Rolling Stone

Michael B. Jordan is Rolling Stones’ March 2023 cover star. In the expose, he gave us an inside look into life as an actor turned director on the top of Hollywood’s A-list. He discusses his directorial debut with “Creed III”, set to release on March 3rd. In addition, he touches on his experience as a Black man influencing his role as Adonis Creed in the films.

“So this is what Adonis is the most current iteration of. He is Black in the world. He has to work through the aftereffects of what Killmonger was fighting for, and how Oscar wasn’t seen or respected. Adonis is trying to start a family, and dealing with childhood trauma, not knowing how to talk and not knowing how to express himself. Not knowing why he feels less, why doesn’t he feel worthy,” Michael B. Jordan tells Rolling Stone.

The Look

Additionally, the shoot was lensed by creative Adrienne Raquel who is known for her playful and vibrant imagery. Subsequently, styling creds go to Michael B. Jordan’s stylist Jason Bolden, who was able to convey a powerful message of masculinity with contrasting femininity through the looks for the shoot. Michael can be seen in a shirtless pose with a pair of Todd Patrick two-toned leather pants and a Peter Do jacket draped across his shoulder. Elsewhere Michael is seen in a white Bottega Veneta tank top, a diamond Tiffany & Co. necklace, and a strand of pearls.

Finally, for the cover itself, Michael B. Jordan is dazed in a red and black logo-embellished Givenchy biker jacket, and matching pants. Furthermore, this cover marks the beginning of a new era for Jordan, as fans everywhere anticipate the new “Creed” film to be just as successful as the last two. He tells Rolling Stone, “I don’t see myself slowing down. Life’s short. I want to squeeze every fucking drop out of this.” Overall, we are confident that Michael B. Jordan will continue to pose a double threat with his successful acting career and now his directing career, and we cannot wait to see what he will do shortly.
