Is Taylor Swift Attending The Super Bowl?

by

Speculation has arisen that Taylor Swift may be racing to Las Vegas to attend the Super Bowl after a rapid departure from Tokyo, Japan. Swift kicked off the Asian and European leg of her Eras Tour with a quartet of shows in the Japanese capital. However, for many people, this indicated that she would not be in attendance to watch her boyfriend, Travis Kelce, play in the Super Bowl. Despite this, Swift’s departure from Tokyo might indicate she is trying to make it back to the US before tomorrow night.

However, some players aren’t thinking about Swift’s potential impact. Musician, CEO, and 49ers wide receiver Ray-Ray McCloud has told TMZ that his focus this Sunday is the Super Bowl, not meeting Swift. “I’m a big fan of greatness. She’s great at what she do. She big time. But, hey, this is football. We don’t care about no album coming out. We don’t care about none of that. Congrats to her on the Grammy thing she did, but we don’t care about none of that, man,” McCloud said.

Travis Kelce References Taylor Swift Lyric Change During Super Bowl Press Conference

Meanwhile, Travis Kelce made reference to Taylor Swift‘s Argentina concert lyric change when asked to “finish the lyric” at a Super Bowl press conference. When asked by a reporter to finish the lyric “Karma is the guy on the…”, Kelce said “Chiefs”. While some outlets reported this moment as Kelce getting the lyric wrong, he was actually making reference to the intentional change Swift made to the lyrics of the song for a concert last year.

Of course, Kelce was hit with a lot of questions about Swift, whose presence at the Super Bowl is in question due to her current tour schedule. Swift is performing in Tokyo until February 10, one day before the Super Bowl in Vegas. Swift and Kelce have been publicly together since Week 3 of the NFL season. However, Swift revealed during her TIME Person of the Year interview that they had been dating for at least a month before their first public outing.

Kanye West Appears With New “Wife” Bianca Censori In Tokyo

by

Kanye West was last seen in Tokyo with his “wife,” Bianca Censori, and her parents. We put “wife” in quotation marks because they aren’t legally married. But that’s how things work in the Kanye West universe: Sometimes, you just roll with what the disgraced rapper claims. While there isn’t photographic proof of all four of them — West, Censori, and Censori’s mother and father — hanging out together, they were all in Tokyo, Japan, at the same time, according to Page Six.

Bianca’s sister, Angelina, posted photos to social media of the parents, Leo and Alexandra, roaming the Japanese city. The couple are exploring the sights and holding hands in the photo. As of Monday, paparazzi pics confirmed that West and Censori were still in Tokyo. The American rapper and the Australian architect are still soaking up the Tokyo culture.

There are also pictures online of Bianca Censori dressed in sheer pink at a Hello Kitty theme park at the Sanrio Store in Tokyo. Based on what little photo evidence we have, it seems to be more pleasure than business for the extended family. And while Kanye West is not technically married to Censori, this might have been a great time to bond with her parents and get to know the family better. No word yet on what kind of impression Kanye had on the Censoris.

Kanye seems to be moving on from a horrendous past that includes a failed partnership with Kim Kardashian. Plus, his reputation is still struggling to come back from anti-Semitic remarks he made on Twitter. The tirade resulted in numerous marketing partnership deals falling through. However, with a new romantic partner, international travel, and a recently leaked song from back in 2011, he might be slowly climbing his way out of a massive hole. Time will tell if he ends up actually marrying Bianca Censori and if he actually gets his act together.

Kanye West & Bianca Censori Check Out Adult Toys While Shopping In Tokyo: Report

by

When Kanye West and his ex-wife, Kim Kardashian stepped out together, “Flashing Lights” followed them everywhere they went. The socialite is one of the most recognizable people, making it hard to top that level of celebrity. Nevertheless, Ye seems to be enjoying his newfound privacy following their divorce. In the meantime, he’s shacked up with Bianca Censori. They’ve been making fashion statements like we’ve never quite seen before over the past few months.

Leading up to summer, the 46-year-old was often seen wearing shoulder pads. He also sported sock shoes, and other unique creations while out with his kids and wife. TMZ reports that West and his wife have taken a trip to Tokyo, where their boundary-pushing ensembles have only continued. On Thursday (June 29) evening, they were sneakily filmed wandering through the Ginza shopping district without any security in sight. West did his best to stay lowkey with a covering on his face, donning almost all-black with his super stealthy sock shoes on foot.

She was shielding her face heavily back in America, but Censori showed off that and her body in Tokyo. The architect left little to the imagination in a beige leotard and dark tights, brought to life by a pair of sparkling silver heels. Eyewitnesses say that no one bothered the couple during their trip to the Don Quijote discount store. At one point, they apparently even browsed through the adult toy section. It remains unclear if they purchased anything, but when they were done with their excursion, a waiting car swept them off to their next destination.

Music doesn’t seem to be the main focus in Kanye West’s life at this time, as we’ve primarily seen him pouring into his family and other business endeavours. However, Young Thug’s recent social media posts have hinted at an upcoming collaboration with the father of four, which hip-hop heads would surely love to hear. Read more about that at the link below, and check back later for more music/pop culture news updates.

Kanye West Links Up With A Fan In Tokyo To Take Some Pictures

by

These days, Kanye West is much more of an elusive and stand-offish figure. Of course, that can be attributed to his many public controversies, brands cutting ties with him, and a new chapter in his life. However, during an seemingly recent outing in Tokyo, it looks like he had fun chopping it up with a fan who saw him. Moreover, an artist by the name of KIZUKIOTANI posted a couple of pictures with the Chicago MC on Instagram, posing together and putting on some smiles. What’s more is that the fan was apparently ready for the occasion, as he had a JESUS IS KING shirt on.

Furthermore, other posts on his IG page also show him rocking Ye’s merch or wearing similar styles. Overall, whether it was planned or random, it seemed like quite the lucky and surreal moment. Given that he is also an artist, perhaps they were able to link up beyond just a quick conversation. However, a lot of fans were just happy to see Kanye West smile with someone despite all the drama.

Another big Yeezy fan recently mentioned him in his favorite albums list. However that’s only notable because he’s a fellow famous rapper. Jack Harlow named Late Registration as his favorite from the 46-year-old. In fact, it’s the first album he named when asked for his top five albums on the Rap Radar podcast. Drake’s Nothing Was The Same, Outkast’s Aquemini, Jay-Z’s The Blueprint, and The Cool Kids’ When Fish Ride Bicycles or The Bake Sale also made the cut.

Meanwhile, another famous fan of Ye’s is Drake, though their history is complicated. Still, reportedly the Canadian artist was very interested in narrating the “Off The Grid” MC’s Netflix documentary. It didn’t end up panning out, but considering their feuds, it would have been quite surreal. For more news and the latest updates on Kanye West, stay up to date on HNHH.

Emily Ratajkowski & Harry Styles Spotted Making Out In Tokyo

by

Fans lost their minds on social media after a video surfaced of Emily Ratajkowski allegedly making out with Harry Styles in Tokyo. Moreover, the term “allegedly” comes from the fact that you can’t tell if it’s really her in the video, but it’s the widespread consensus on sites like Twitter. Furthermore, you can definitely tell that it’s the former One Direction singer during the sloppy kiss clip, which fans are somewhat clowning online. However, the overwhelming sentiment is shock, especially given that the model recently appeared with Ozario Rispo after her split from Eric André.

Interestingly enough, this comes after recent confessions from Ratajkowski that she “attracts the worst men,” in her opinion. “Sometimes I’m like, ‘F**k,’ because I want a confident man,” she told Olivia Ponton on her podcast. “I feel like I attract the worst men. I don’t want an overly confident man who has something to prove and is trying to prove it through me. What I hate with dating, with men in particular, is I feel like they’re like, ‘OK, yes, you’re special. You’ve done it.’

“And they love it and love it,” EmRata continued. “And then slowly, they get emasculated and they don’t know what to do with those feelings, and then they resent you. Then they start to tear you down, and then you’re back to square one. It’s so f***ed up and unfair because I feel like a lot of men who truly think they want a strong woman actually don’t know how to handle it and they don’t know what it means for their own identity.”

Meanwhile, the Harry’s House Grammy winner recently made headlines for his Album of the Year acceptance speech. While it’s hard to deliver a perfect acknowledgement of victory when you just beat out landmark albums from Kendrick Lamar, Beyoncé, and many others, a lot of people felt he could’ve done a better job at expressing his gratitude realistically and honestly. Regardless, what’s done is done. Given that you ca barely tell it’s the Gone Girl actress in the Tokyo clip, maybe this will be a funny misunderstanding to look back upon. One thing’s for sure: it’s absolutely spicy if true. With that in mind, check back in with HNHH for the latest on Emily Ratajkowski and Harry Styles.

‘Wom/n Worldwide’ Breaks Down The Fem Superheroes That Ruled The Summer

by

Who ran the world this summer? Women, that’s who.

In Uproxx’s latest video series, Wom/n Worldwide, we’re giving a much-deserved shout-out to the fem superheroes that are filling up our timelines with some much-needed good news. And women? They’ve been BUSY this year. Host Drew Dorsey breaks it all down in this, shining a light on the athletes, activists, actors, and all-around badasses affecting positive change in their respective fields. From decorated Olympians like Simone Biles putting a spotlight on mental health — and inspiring us all to take self-care more seriously — to the hip-hop queens ruling the charts, and the women revolutionizing the film industry from behind the camera — we’re hyped for it all.

The Olympics are still on everyone’s mind so now’s a good time to remind fans of how superstars like Biles, Katie Ledecky, and Naomi Osaka changed the game when it comes to how we view excellence in sport, and a couple of 13-year-old skateboarding phenoms blew our minds in Tokyo too. Speaking of empowerment, plenty of female artists have been delivering body-positive bangers this summer — we see you Cardi B — as icons like Billie Eilish, Lorde, and Halsey get ready to drop new music this Fall. (Our playlists needed updating anyway.)

We’re also ready for the world to update its beauty standards so naturally, we had to applaud Nikkie Tutorials for leading the way, and if you didn’t have enough to watch already, we’ve got a couple more female-helmed films to add to your binge-watching queue. All that and an update on the historic Generation Equality Forum that took place in Paris this summer pops up in our inaugural episode.
