Lil Wayne & Coi Leray Step Out In MSCHF Big Red Boots: Photos

by

Looks like Kanye West is getting the last laugh after all. After being relentlessly clowned for his own oversized black boots, the rapper’s contemporaries are finally catching on to his ahead-of-the-curve style. An increasing number of celebrities are stepping out in MSCHF’s Big Red Boots, including Lil Wayne.

Weezy is one of the most recent artists to hop on the trend. He’s taken fashion risks in the past, and his latest look is certainly raising some eyebrows. On Saturday (February 11), the “Lollipop” hitmaker wore his bright boots while filming a music video with NLE Choppa. The shoes were obviously the most interesting part of his OOTD. The rest consisted of a long white shirt and baggy yellow and black striped shorts.

As XXL notes, Wayne is (literally) following in the footsteps of Fivio Foreign. The New Yorker was clowned for wearing the MSCHF boots on TikTok. Regardless of the hate they’ve been getting, the trendy footwear continues to appear on social media. Surprisingly, the public doesn’t have access to them yet.

They’re going on sale later this week for $350 USD on the official MSCHF website. The release will take place on February 16th, so you have time to prepare your bank account. However, it’s worth noting that some resellers are already requesting over $2,000 for the highly anticipated boots.

If Wayne’s look hasn’t convinced you to purchase the BRBs, perhaps Coi Leray’s will. She also spent her Saturday stepping out in the viral, Astroboy-inspired footwear, pairing them with a black and white bodysuit and sheer tights. Not only did the Trendsetter model them, but she also proved that they’re easy to dance in while practicing with a crew behind her.

On her own Instagram feed, the Boston-born rap starlet posted a series of photos showing off her MSCHF shoes. At the same time, she thanked the Brooklyn Nets for having her at their game against the Philadelphia 76ers last night. See Coi’s Big Red Boots below, and let us know if you’ll be buying a pair later this month in the comments.

Beyoncé Dons Black & White Balmain To Virtually Accept Her BRIT Awards: Video

by

There’s no one doing it quite like Beyoncé. Since making a triumphant return to the stage during her legendary performance in Dubai, the “Telephone” singer has continued to prove that her talent truly knows no bounds. Most recently, her hard work was recognized on Saturday (February 11) night at the BRIT Awards.

The Texas-born star didn’t make the flight overseas to accept her trophies in person. Instead, she gave a virtual speech to the crowd in London. As Daily Mail notes, Queen B won in two categories – International Artist of the Year and International Song of the Year for “BREAK MY SOUL.” Though she didn’t walk the event’s red carpet, she still made sure to dress up in designer duds before snapping a few photos for the ‘gram.

While thanking those who gave her the awards, Beyoncé said, “Thank you so much for this incredible recognition. I’d like to say thank you to all of my friends out there in Britain for your continuous support over the years.” Afterward, she reminded viewers that this is only the beginning of RENAISSANCE‘s three acts. “I’ll see y’all on tour,” the Destiny’s Child alum promised. “Thank you so much for this honour!”

In her IG photo dump, Bey proudly poses with one of her sleek new trophies. Looking as fashionable as ever, her black and white Balmain outfit perfectly hugs her curvy hips and behind. On the unique dresses’ arms, striped fur creates an unmissable air of luxury and fun.

The majority of headlines surrounding Beyoncé lately have been focusing on her undeniably successful RENAISSANCE album. The project had an impressive run at the Grammy Awards. Consequently, it led the singer to tie the record for most trophies granted to one artist. However, that’s not all people have been talking about.

During a chat with Art of Dialogue, Big Gipp shared his thoughts on Bey’s marriage to Jay-Z. During the interview, he specifically said that, if Tupac were still alive, the “Baby Boy” hitmaker would be with him instead of Hov. Read the Atlanta rapper’s full thoughts on the matter here, and check back later for more music news updates.

Rubi Rose Calls DDG A “Weirdo,” Denies Disliking Halle Bailey

by

DDG is calling the internet “gullible” for believing the rumours about him and Halle Bailey ending their relationship. Despite his denial, however, the drama continues to surround the pair. Now, the rapper’s ex, Rubi Rose has entered the chat. Earlier this weekend, she seemingly called out the Michigan native for passing along one of her old shirts to his new boo.

The Little Mermaid actress recently posted a Story to her Instagram page. She wished her followers a good morning while sporting a bare face and a black and white tee. The clip’s focus is more on Bailey’s face than her outfit, but internet sleuths still quickly noticed the top is identical to one Rose previously wore in 2020. At the time, she posted a series of selfies with the caption, “I know he lying… But f*ck it I am too.”

Shortly after the R&B songstress posted her Story, DDG’s ex shared a telling message on her Twitter page. “Having [your] bitch [wear] my clothes is crazy lol,” she wrote on Saturday (February 11). Of course, followers instantly assumed the message had to be about Halle. “You coming for the little mermaid, your mentions ’bout to be a mess fr,” one person pointed out.

“She probably got that shirt off Fashion Nova just like you did, relax,” another troll chimed in. In her usual fashion, Rose didn’t hesitate to address the drama unfolding in her mentions. She firstly defended her typos in the initial tweet, explaining, “I’m still lit off the ‘migos bae, my b.” Then, in another post, made it clear that her beef is with her ex, not with his new girlfriend.

“I like Halle,” the 25-year-old confirmed in a short and sweet post. “DDG a weird tho fasho.” Unfortunately for her, fans of the YouTuber were quick to pull out receipts of movements when her behaviour was nothing short of unsavoury as well. Among them are screenshots of social media posts saying things like “DDG f*cks my p*ssy so good,” and “DDG got the best d*ck in the world.”

Those responses have received far less attention from Rose, though they continue to pour in on her page. Elsewhere online, some are taking advantage of Bailey’s breakup rumours, going so far as to create a Change.org petition demanding that she find a new man. It was officially launched earlier this week and has already received upwards of 1,600 signatures.

“Halle Bailey is black royalty and she has a childish peasant attached to her,” creator Lindsey Williams wrote in the page’s description. “We want better for our princess. Her celebrity shouldn’t be used for YouTube views and clicks. She’s unproblematic and her childish (hopefully ex-boyfriend) thought it was funny to sub her when she’s about to have the biggest year ever.”

If you feel strongly enough, you can sign the petition for yourself here. Additionally, make sure to check back later for more pop culture news updates.

Julia Fox Responds To Alexander Wang Backlash

by

Julia Fox has responded to the backlash she’s received for walking on the runway for Alexander Wang at New York Fashion Week. Multiple people have accused the disgraced designer of sexual assault over the years. Wang’s show was not officially listed as an event for New York Fashion Week. However, over 150 guests still attended his runway show, including Anna Wintour, Nikita Dragun, and Ava Max. Fox remarked in a TikTok on Wang’s page that her outfit made her feel “like a sexy siren, ready to suck souls.”

After receiving backlash online for her affiliation with Wang, Fox responded in a comment on TikTok. She admitted that she feels Wang has put in the work to better himself as a person. She wrote: “I love cancel culture but we do need to leave room for rehabilitation and for those who put in the work and heal and learn from their mistakes.”

Wang originally addressed the allegations back in 2021, promising to “set a better example” and “do better” going forward. He also met with 11 of his accusers. He wrote in his statement: “A number of individuals have come forward recently to raise claims against me regarding my past personal behavior. I support their right to come forward, and I’ve listened carefully to what they had to say. It was not easy for them to share their stories, and I regret acting in a way that caused them pain. While we disagree on some of the details of these personal interactions, I will set a better example and use my visibility and influence to encourage others to recognize harmful behaviors. Life is about learning and growth, and now that I know better, I will do better.”

Wang had his first fashion show post-allegations last year in Los Angeles. The new show is Wang’s first showing at New York Fashion Week in three years. In L.A., models Candice Swanepoel, Adriana Lima, and Alessandra Ambrósio walked for him.

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.

John Cena Steps Out In A School Girl Skirt & High Heels, Social Media Reacts

by

John Cena is best known for the countless years he spent tearing up the WWE ring. He chiefly took on iconic opponents such as Batista, The Rock, and Rob Van Dam. Of course, the 45-year-old has taken a break from the sport more recently. Instead, he’s turning his energy toward his acting career. The athlete landed his first big non-WWE credit in 2006 playing John Triton in The Marine.

Since then, he’s gone on to appear in Parks and Recreation, Trainwreck, Daddy’s Home, and its 2017 sequel. Additionally, the Massachusetts-born entertainer has credits for his work in F9: The Fast Saga, and as the DC Comics universe character Peacemaker in both The Suicide Squad film and his own TV show. Needless to say, he’s proven that his acting chops are just as impressive as his wrestling skills.

For his latest movie, Cena has been hanging out in Melbourne, Australia with costars like Zac Efron and William H. Macy. The trio all appear in Ricky Stanicky, a Peter Farrelly-directed comedy that’s sure to keep audiences laughing. It follows three friends who wind up burning down a house while playing a prank. Afterward, they create a fake character to blame their risky actions on.

As the New York Post reports, the troublesome teens continue to use the fictional character as an excuse for several decades. However, when they portray an actor to bring Stanicky to life, things become complicated. Many details about the upcoming project are under wraps at this time, though cameras have caught photos of Cena on set sporting a school girl-style mini skirt, makeup, high heels, and tights.

Those seeing the former rapper’s costume out of context have been expressing concern for him on social media. However, Cena’s recent tweets make it evident that he’s having a great time shooting Ricky Stanicky. “Beyond excited to help bring these characters to life (both on- and off-screen) with an incredible cast, our director and producers and partners at @AmazonStudios @primevideo,” he wrote on February 1st.

Elsewhere in the news, Cena was in the headlines just last month for giving G-Unit rapper Tony Yayo his flowers. The WWE alum is perhaps best known for his “you can’t see me” dance move that he popularized in the ring. However, it turns out he’s not actually the mastermind behind its invention.

That credit goes to the 44-year-old, who first saw the New York rapper perform the wave during his “So Seductive” video. Later on, his brother, Sean, dared him to recreate the moment during his next televised match, and the rest is history. Read everything John had to say about his stolen signature move here, and check back later for more pop culture news updates.

Jaden’s MSFTrep Collection Inspired By Will Smith’s “Fresh Prince” Sunflower

by

As the child of two Hollywood powerhouses, Jaden Smith pulls from his parents’ experiences as inspiration. As a teen, he partnered with his sister Willow to establish their own fashion brand. MSFTrep has pushed the envelope, much like his family often has, and the brand—also co-founded by actors Moises and Mateo Arias—is boasted as being a place for misfits to find a shelter of sorts.

We’ll get a further look at MSFTrep’s next installment sometime this month, and in an interview with Footwear News, Jaden spoke on being inspired by his father’s famed sitcom for the launch. While of the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, Will Smith donned a sunflower costume in an earlier season, which was a look that has gone down in history. The “Trippy Summer” collection will also reportedly feature “bright psychedelic colors, twisted fonts, and nods to nature.”

“I wanted to make people into plants and turn people into flowers. Because being one with nature is like reaching the highest level of consciousness,” said Jaden. In the Fresh Prince episode, Will was forced to dress up and perform with children in order to graduate from high school. He made the best of it and turned the production into a Hip Hop show—of sorts.

“It was super embarrassing for his character in the episode, but I thought it was an amazing idea of how to turn someone into a flower,” Jaden also shared. His collection doesn’t mimic his dad’s TV look, but it does serve as a generational connection. From one successful Smith to the next, one of Will’s best Fresh Prince memories lives on.

Although Jaden is close with his family, he also recognized at an early age that he wanted to remove himself from being boxed in. “I separated myself from everything that I’d known at the time and caught a different vibe,” he further said. “I needed that time to really have those solo thoughts and to think about stuff. It was a big part of me being who I am today.” Check out more from MSFTrep below.

Lil Durk’s Lakers Game Look Has Twitter Clowning Him

by

Like most male rappers, Lil Durk obviously prides himself on having a unique wardrobe. Previously, he collaborated with Marc Jacobs on a campaign that found him modelling alongside Bella Hadid. He’s also been known to spend a fortune on designer jewelry and outfits. However, not all of them have earned a seal of approval from his fans.

Most recently, the father of six made waves with the outfit he donned while sitting courtside at the Lakers game earlier this week. While the basic elements of his look aren’t so bad, an over-the-top addition to the front of his sweater has the internet questioning how comfortable he was. For his night out on the town, Durk markedly paired black leather pants and boots with a grey mohair sweater.

Across his chest, the 7220 hitmaker surprisingly wore a broken skateboard. Both halves of it accordingly mark a V-shape in the middle of his shirt. He also layered several chains around his neck, and at times throughout the night, put on a balaclava over his face in the crowd. It remains unclear where Durk purchased the controversial sweater from, but social media hasn’t been shy about expressing their distaste for it.

@nojumper/Instagram

No Jumper later reposted photos of the lyricist to their Instagram feed writing, “Rich people will wear anything if it’s designer.” In the comments, many were quick to clown Durkio for his bold outfit. “POSER!!! He don’t even skate,” one person pointed out. Another added, “Wear anything their handlers tell them to wear.”

Meanwhile, on Elon Musk’s app, the conversation has been largely the same. “Bro got the Walmart skateboard on his mom’s sweatshirt,” one troll joked this afternoon. “People who let you walk out the crib in this and tell you that your fit looks fire ain’t really your friends,” another circulating tweet says.

Flo Milli Seemingly Flaunts Her Breast Augmentation In New Selfies

by

At just 23 years old, Flo Milli has achieved far more than most others her age can dream of – and she’s only just getting started. In 2020, she firstly shook things up with her debut project, Ho, why is you here?. The 12-track effort undoubtedly helped skyrocket the southern rapper to fame thanks to titles like “Beef FloMix” and “In The Party.”

She’s continued to progress since then, and last year, the Alabama native was ready to share her first studio album with the world. You Still Here, Ho? landed last summer, featuring appearances from Rico Nasty and BabyFace Ray. Standout tracks from that include “Roaring 20s,” “Big Steppa,” and finally, “Conceited,” which recently received the remix treatment.

Aside from tantalizing audiences with her music, Milli has also been capturing their attention with thirst traps as of late. On her Instagram feed last week, the “Not Friendly” hitmaker encouraged her 1.1 million followers to “get [them] a [her]” in a series of leather-clad sultry snapshots. The photo sump saw a close-up of a belly button ring reading, “Rich N*ggas Only,” as well as an ample preview of the rising starlet’s underboob.

She’s never shied away from putting her petite figure on display before, but her new photos have fans talking about Milli’s seemingly enhanced chest. On Twitter, she only sparked more breast augmentation rumours with a series of flirtatious selfies in a low-cut crop top that chiefly find her bust taking centre stage. “Flo no,” one person wrote of the rapper’s plastic surgery in the replies. “They look good as hell though,” the same user later admitted.

“There’s at least…….Two things different about Flo……I just can’t put my fingers on ’em,” another fan expertly teased the fashionista. “Surgeons need medals,” someone else chimed in, praising the doctor responsible for FM’s new appearance. Of course, she hasn’t confirmed the procedure herself just yet, though she did address the love she’s been getting in a separate post. “I love how hard Flo Military goes for me,” she wrote on Thursday (February 9).

Fivio Foreign Clowned For Wearing Viral MSCHF Red Boots

by

Drip is pretty important for any rapper these days, as a clean fit could get you more attention than a decent single. However, many MCs try very hard to stand out, and that experimentation leads to mixed results. Moreover, people are clowning Fivio Foreign for wearing the viral red boots from MSCHF. You know, the ones that look like Astro Boy’s legs. Anyways, he showed off the kicks in a TikTok video dancing to YN Jay’s “Perc & Sex” with his friends. The video posted on Wednesday (February 8) quickly caught some hilarious reactions on social media.

Furthermore, one Twitter user wrote “Nah he ain’t from Brooklyn no more my son from the #universalcircus” with a laughing emoji. Another added, “Everytime I see these boots all I think about is Mario bros and yoshi and hear the boing boing sound.” Still, a few people were nice enough to compliment his overall fit. He wore a black leather jacket and black pants, with a whole lot of red on his feet. “The boots are definitely ugly but they look cute with his outfit.” Even though these boots are all over social media, only a few see the vision in favor of ridiculing it.

♬ original sound – FIVIO FOREIGN

“What kills me about celebrities is that if something gets enough hype on social media, you’ll see them wearing it, ugly or not,” a tweeter expressed. “Why the f**k is Brooklyn n***a Fivio Foreign in them Pacman/Astroboy/Boots The Monkey ass boots? No matter how you dress it, ITS UGLY. Rih can’t save it.” Despite the backlash, it’s likely that Fivio won’t break a sweat and will continue to wear whatever he pleases. Most recently at the Grammys, he wore an all-pink ensemble with a fur-lined coat, sneakers, and sunglasses to boot.

Meanwhile, the drill icon’s already started his year off hot. For example, just a few weeks ago, he dropped “Notice Me” with a few rising drill stars. Moreover, these are Tata, Jenn Carter, and Kyle Richh. Given that Fivio’s already established, it’s heartening to see him reach out to that next generation of stars. Only time will tell what will happen when they ask him for fashion advice. Regardless, let us know what you think of Fivio Foreign’s big red boots in the comments. Also, check out some more reactions below and come back to HNHH for more controversial fits.
