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.”

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! 🤍

JT Explains Purse Snatching Incident At Paris Fashion Week Runway Show

by

As fashion week stylishly wages on over in Paris, the celebrities and their antics continue to make headlines worldwide. Most recently, it was the Mugler runway show that got people talking – but not specifically because of the clothes.

Rather, it was an incident between City Girl JT and one of the famous models that has been circulating online. In the clip, Venezuelan singer Arca confidently struts down the runway in a barely-there little black dress. When she sees the rap diva, seated alongside names like Christine Quinn and Charli XCX, she veers off course to grab her purse and a brief struggle ensues.

JT fought back a bit, but wasn’t anything like her usual feisty self in the situation, leading some viewers to believe the situation was a set-up. We now know they were right, as a video of the Florida native and foreign vocalist hugging afterward in Paris is making rounds now too.

Arca reposted the viral moment on her Instagram Story. “@thegirljt, thank you for being up for the mischief and playfulness part of the show,” she praised the 30-year-old. “You’re so beautiful it’s insane!”

Afterward, the “Ex For A Reason” artist put the same clip on her page. She added a message to the top of the screen, explaining what happened to curious followers. “So fun. I was so nervous and was scared I was gonna look obvious. Obviously not ’cause they think it’s real hehe. Good job,” she praised her new friend.

This season’s Paris Fashion Week has been making plenty of headlines. From Doja Cat’s undeniably eccentric outfits to Kylie Jenner donning a realistic lion’s head while sitting front row at Schiaparelli, the eye candy is endless.

Aside from that bold look, the mother of two is also facing backlash for sporting Givenchy’s infamous noose necklace to their runway earlier this week. Read some of the criticism she’s facing here, and check back later for more pop culture updates.

Jim Jones Declares Drake Dipset’s “Official 5th Member”: Video

by

We love to see legends supporting legends. For his long-awaited weekend of performances at the Apollo Theatre, Drake didn’t keep the stage to himself. Rather, he used the shows as an opportunity to give flowers to a few of his favourites. Specifically, The Diplomats, who joined him two nights in a row, were honoured.

On Thursday (January 26), Jim Jones took to Instagram to celebrate the past week’s amazing event. In the video he posted on his feed, the Canadian hitmaker is seen sporting a Dipset logo jacket. At the same time, Cam’ron and Juelz Santana’s “Oh Boy” plays loudly in the background.

“@champagnepapi official 5th member of #DIPSet,” the New Yorker wrote in his caption. “[You] did [that], [thank you]. Bless up to the whole #OVO.”

As HipHopDX notes, the Harlem venue heard The Diplomats and Drake perform some of their biggest tracks. Among them were titles like “Dipset Anthem,” “I Really Mean It,” and “We Fly High (Ballin’).”

On night one, Drizzy changed Cam’ron as he donned the style icon’s famous pink fur coat and matching hat. Later that evening, Jones went all out by gifting his Canadian friend a custom OVO x Dipset bracelet.

As his guests left the stage, the father of one reminded his audience, “These guys right here from Harlem made us dress different, talk different, walk different, rap different — all the way in Canada.”

On night two (January 22), Drizzy flaunted another major wardrobe flex, stepping out in The Diplomats U.S. flag jacket previously seen in Killa Cam’s “Get ‘Em Girls” visual. Santana and Jones also showed off their style chops, rocking custom Jeff Hamilton-designed Dipset x OVO jackets.

Aside from entertaining the Apollo crowd alongside Drizzy and his Dipset crew members last weekend, Jones also had the opportunity to chop it up with New York mayor Eric Adams at the concert.

Doja Cat’s Paris Fashion Week Style Choices Continue To Entertain Fans

by

The queen of this season’s Paris Fashion Week? Doja Cat, no question about it! In the past, recording artists like Coi Leray and Cardi B had the privilege of sitting in the front row. This time, though, the Planet Her singer is having her moment in the spotlight.

In her usual fashion, the 27-year-old kicked things off with a dramatic flair at the Schiaparelli couture show. For that, she donned over 30,000 Swarovski crystals all over her body and sat beside Kylie Jenner. The reality star’s animalistic outfit also made headlines.

As Page Six notes, some social media users clowned Doja for not adding false eyelashes to her red ensemble. Ever the comedian, while attending the Viktor & Rolf show, she opted to stick fake eyelashes on her brows. They also appeared on her upper lip, and chin, mimicking facial hair.

That certainly earned a few laughs, but by Wednesday (January 25), the California native was ready to prove that she can still pull off glamorous looks too. For the Valentino Haute Couture runway, she stepped out in a long black trench coat. This was worn over a miniskirt and bra top in the same colour.

Rather than her usual bald head, Doja rocked a long black wig with straight across bangs. The outfit was far more toned down than others we’ve seen her in this week. However, her purse undeniably brings an element of drama to the otherwise neutral look.

The Chris Habana-designed bag is reportedly worth $20,000 and was 3D-printed to match the exact measurements of the “Say So” singer’s own hand. It can be worn as a glove or carried as a purse, and is covered in approximately 1,000 Swarovski crystals. Additionally, you’ll find 3,000 pearls and hand-painted gold fingernails to mimic a manicure.

In the iconic accessory’s hand sits a $179 bottle of Patrón El Alto tequila.

Doja’s stylist and creative director, Brett Alan Nelson, spoke about the outfit in a press release. “I always love some sort of organic gag. Nothing that feels forced but seamless to who Doja is as a person and as an artist,” he explained.

“My girl loves a tequila cocktail, so taking the idea of this couture-level bottle of Patrón El Alto to Paris but making it an accessory that doesn’t leave her side… I reached out to Chris Habana. I told him I wanted something that felt like it was off the Paris runway for couture but I wanted it to have a bit of a surrealist vibe to it.”

Before she got everyone talking with her unique outfits at Paris Fashion Week, last year, Doja Cat kept all eyes on her with some out-of-the-box eyebrow looks.

Kanye West Wears German Reich Shirt During Balenciaga Shopping Date With Bianca Censori

by

The last half of 2022 saw what some may call “the fall of Kanye West.” The father of four finalized his divorce from Kim Kardashian and publicly feuded with several frequent collaborators. He also lost out on deals with brands like Adidas and Balenciaga.

The “Flashing Lights” rapper didn’t hesitate to air the companies out on social media. However, a recent report reveals that he’s still got at least a little bit of love for the Spanish fashion house.

According to TMZ, West and his new wife Bianca Censori visited Balenciaga’s Rodeo Drive location on Wednesday (January 25) evening. While shopping in Beverly Hills, they apparently dropped some serious cash. Cameras caught their security loading several grey bags into their SUV outside the store.

His decision to shop somewhere that’s cut ties with him seems obviously odd, but that wasn’t the only strange thing about Ye’s big night out. Under his black puffer coat, the 45-year-old was wearing what looks like a white tee with the German Reich’s coat of arms emblazoned across it. The symbol was prominent prior to the Nazi’s adoption of the swastika. The shirt also has “Bundeswehr” written across it, which is the name for Germany’s federal defence forces.

After balling out at Balenciaga, the couple apparently went shopping at Neiman Marcus. It remains unclear if any bags were brought to their vehicle after that stop.

Aside from making major money moves, the newlyweds have also been spending time with Ye’s kids. Just a few days ago, they dined at Nobu with North West. During that outing, the Yeezy architect debuted her new short blonde hair.

They’re very clearly spending their time in America at the moment. However, it was reported earlier this week that West and Censori are expected to take a trip down under to meet her family in the near future.

Unfortunately, it seems plans may fall apart as Australian Jewish organizations have been speaking out about their desire to keep the disgraced rapper out of their country. Read more about that here, and check back later for more pop culture updates.

Kylie Jenner’s Givenchy Noose Necklace Earns Her Significant Backlash

by

Unfortunately for the Kardashian-Jenner family, it often feels as though they can’t go a day without being criticized. Seeing as they have a large family, most of whom specifically choose to spend their time in the public eye, it’s not exactly surprising. After so much criticism in past years, though, you’d think they’d stop repeating the same mistakes. Most recently, the youngest sister, Kylie Jenner, is facing significant backlash for some of her Paris Fashion Week outfit choices.

Firstly, the internet has been having a field day with the makeup mogul’s animalistic outfit for the Schiaparelli couture show. While sitting front row – alongside an equally as eye-catching Doja Cat – she donned a curve-hugging black dress, complete with a lifesize, realistic lion’s head on her torso.

While the materials used to create the majestic creature Jenner wore were faux, haters are still upset over her apparent promotion of wearing animals. However, PETA has made it known that they’re in support of her jungle-friendly fit, even publicly praising the socialite and brand for their creative work.

After obviously causing controversy at Schiaparelli, the California native stirred the pot with Givenchy. From afar, her outfit looks relatively normal, consisting of a bright blue dress and mid-length pink sparkly boots. Up close, though, you can see that the accessory worn around her neck actually doubles as a noose.

As Page Six notes, the controversial piece made its debut in the French brand’s Spring 2022 collection. It appeared on the runway in October 2021, at which time social media heavily criticized it.

Upon seeing new photos of the 25-year-old in Paris, outraged Twitter users have been speaking out. “@givenchy & @KylieJenner yall support slavery? Because why would Givenchy create a noose necklace understanding the atrocities of slavery globally?” one user pondered.

“And, why would you, Kylie, wear a damn noose necklace and you have a HALF BLACK DAUGHTER & SON?! True racists,” they added.

Another person openly asked, “This woman has no shame at all. Is she picking her outfits on purpose knowing very well they will create controversy?”

Chloe Bailey’s Debut Solo Album: R&B Diva Reveals Title & March Release Date

by

We’re not even a full month into 2023 yet, and already the new music we’ve heard has been undeniably amazing. Besides what artists have already dropped, it seems as though a highly anticipated new album is being announced multiple times a week. The latest lyricist to give us some good news regarding their debut project is Chloe Bailey.

Of course, the world already loves her for her work alongside little sister Halle Bailey on their Ungodly Hour project. That previously landed back in 2020, boasting popular titles like “Do It,” “Forgive Me,” and the titular track.

As the younger of the two began an exciting venture into the world of Disney, Chloe launched her career as a solo artist. She shared her “Have Mercy” hit at the end of 2021. While Halle was “Under The Sea” with Flounder and other friends on The Little Mermaid set, her sibling was performing at the VMAs and teasing more amazing singles to come.

It initially seemed as though we may hear Bailey’s debut album arrive last year, but instead, she built up plenty of suspense with her sultry songs. First, we heard “Treat Me” in April, and after that, she had some fun on the Shemix of “GYALIS.”

Arguably the most salacious of Chlöe’s recent singles is “Surprise,” in which she flirtatiously sings about having her panties pulled to the side.

Finally, Chlöe gave us “For the Night” featuring Latto at the end of October. Ahead of the popular track’s release, the vocalist revealed during a Twitter Spaces session that she wrote it about Gunna and their short-lived fling that took place in early 2022.

Of course, the world has been eager to hear more from the 24-year-old. Thankfully, she’s been sharing countless thirst traps on her Instagram feed to fill the appetites of hungry fans.

One of them arrived on Tuesday (January 24), along with exciting news regarding her long-awaited release. “‘IN PIECES.’ MY DEBUT ALBUM. MARCH 2023,” she wrote in the caption.

The accompanying video clip sees Chlöe wearing bright red locks and a skin-tight dress in the same shade. A front cutout reveals her cleavage for the camera, and gold hoops dangle from her ears. In either hand, she appears to hold golden objects on a platter.

Lil Baby’s Son Jason Iced Out With 2 Incredible Pendants Totalling Over 7 Carats

by

They’re facing criticism from the general public right now, but for the most part, being a “nepo baby” comes with endless perks. From TV and movie roles offered out without any real skill to the most incredible wardrobes, often gifted free from major brands, the life of luxury certainly sounds like a good one. Most recently, Lil Baby’s 7-year-old son, Jason Armani Jones, proved that you don’t even need to have completed elementary school to reap the full benefits.

According to TMZ, the “Never Recover” hitmaker recently took a trip to Icebox Diamonds & Watches. The store is apparently “his home away from home.” Skylar Langfeldt tells the outlet that the rapper requested smaller diamond emblems. He wanted them modelled after a few of his own pre-existing pieces.

The first is a recreation of Baby’s 4PF chain, which has more than 70 carats. Jason’s is still a major flex for someone his age. It consists of just over 5 carats of VS diamonds with blue and green enamel accents, in comparison.

Additionally, the 28-year-old wanted to make his and his little one’s trips to State Farm Arena even more special. As you may know, the two frequently watch the Atlanta Hawks play from the courtside. Now, they have matching emblems to wear on their already-stylish nights out together.

Langfeldt revealed that the second pendant commissioned by Baby for Jason has an impressive two carats of diamonds. It also has 25 grams of gold. The Quality Control artist’s is much bigger in comparison, boasting 20 carats of diamonds and 150 grams of white gold.

Of course, the It’s Only Me lyricist doesn’t just spoil his child with luxury gifts. He’s also in the midst of building a dream playroom for his oldest.

In other news, Lil Baby is one of the artists recently announced as a part of the 2023 Governor’s Ball lineup. He’s not a headliner (Lizzo, Odesza, and Kendrick Lamar nabbed that honour), but the Atlanta spitter is one of the most highly anticipated sets on the list.

See the full roster of artists scheduled to perform this coming June in NYC here. Afterward, tell us your thoughts on Jason’s new jewelry in the comment section.
