Lizzo Spreads Love From Shibuya Amid Drama With Former Dancers

Lizzo has previously broken the internet with her thirst traps on numerous occasions, but just a few weeks ago, it was unfortunately bad news that got the Special singer trending. A group of her former dancers launched a lawsuit against the Detroit native, specifically accusing her of creating a hostile work environment, as well as body shaming them. There were three women sharing their stories at first, but since then, the number has only grown. Their attorney has hinted at the case perhaps going to court in the future, though Lizzo seems focused on staying out of the drama and focusing on positivity.

As she awaits news of what’s happening next with her ex-employees, the multi-talent is spending some time overseas before summer comes to an end. According to her first Instagram post since her statement addressing the allegations, Lizzo is sending us love from Shibuya. On Friday (August 18), her feed lit up with a video reel showing off some of her favourite moments from her time in Japan.

Lizzo is Big in Japan

Never one to avoid standing out, Lizzo donned a vibrant yellow, blue, and green two-piece set to explore the city. The fabric’s texture left her looking comparable to a bug or sea creature, but still fabulous, nonetheless. She wore her light brown hair in messy space buns and shielded her eyes from the cameras flashing at her with oversized shades. The 35-year-old appears to be as happy as one can be under the circumstances, bringing much relief to those supporting her through this time.

Earlier in the week, those who chose to remain a part of Lizzo’s dance team shared a statement of solidarity with the “Truth Hurts” singer. “Thank you to Lizzo for shattering limitations and kicking in the doorway for the Big Grrrl & Big Boiii dancers to do what we love!” they wrote. Read what else the entertainers had to say about working with the embattled activist at the link below, and check back later for more hip-hop/pop culture news updates.

DaBaby Takes On Director Role For Lil Duval’s New Music Video

DaBaby’s music videos have captivated fans since he debuted. From “Suge” to “Walker Texas Ranger,” the rapper’s creativity allowed him to stand out among the crowd. Now he’s decided to take his talents behind the camera. The rapper was recently tapped to direct a music video for Lil Duval. Released via YouTube on Tuesday (August 15), the “Squeeze” video opens with a hilarious skit of the comedian leading a “Stop The Violence” assembly.

Later on, Duval is surrounded by a sea of fans, as well as enjoying himself while dancing his way down the Soul Train line. Based on the comments, the visual seems well-received. “Good shit OG!!!! Giving Da Baby his flowers while he can smell em!!! He gifted af with this directing shit, one fan wrote. Similarly, another person commented, “A classic. Salute lil duval & dababy for the fire direction.”

This Isn’t DaBaby’s First Time In The Director’s Chair

In the past few years, the rapper has taken to the camera quite a bit. Most recently, with “Ball If I Want To” and “Red Light Green Light.” The rapper seems to be moving in a new direction. The future plans of DaBaby as a director are unknown, but hopefully he will. Soon, we’ll know.

In other news, the rapper recently opened up about his career’s ups and downs. During his interview with Gillie Da Kid and Wallo267 on the Million Dollaz Worth Of Game podcast, he spoke on his early shows, the grind that he would dedicate himself to constantly, and more. “I done paid my dues, bro,” DaBaby began his remarks to Gillie and Wallo. “I done performed at hole in the wall s**ts and all that. I got my documentary coming, too. But, yeah, it’ll have s**t in there where you see me performing for three people. That’s why even, you know, when s**t go left or I go through a little slump and s**t, motherf***ers think I’m one of these n***as who, like, entitled to instant gratification.” He continued: “Just entitled to a bunch of goddamn smiles and kisses and… N***a, f**k no.”

Trippie Redd Roasted After Old Clip Of Him Mocking Rappers’ Low Album Sales Resurfaces

An old video of Trippie Redd has resurfaced online, in which he mocks other rappers for low album sales. Little did he know he would join them. The clip specifically targets artists who debuted with 30,000 album sales or less. “C list rappers, n*gga we bout to create an avengers of trash n*ggas,” he said. “If we all put our 30,000 first week together, n*gga we gone make a million.”

Trippie’s latest album, A Love Letter To You 5, first-week sales were less than stellar. Similarly to those he once laughed at, the rapper’s project sold only around 30,000 copies in its first week. After a series of pushbacks, the mixtape was finally released last week. It served as the fifth and final installment of his A Love Letter to You series. It featured guest appearances by Lil Wayne, Roddy Ricch, Bryson Tiller, and more.

New Trippie Redd Mixtape Only Sold 30k In Its First Week

Earlier this year, the rapper dropped off his fifth studio album, Mansion Musik. The project didn’t achieve massive commercial success and received mixed reviews from fans. It debuted on the Billboard 200 at No.3, selling 56,000 album-equivalent units. Chief KeefFutureLil Baby, and the late Juice Wrld were among those featured.

It’s not just his music career that Trippie Redd is struggling with, it’s his love life as well. Recently, he shared an emotional apology to Skye Morales on Instagram for cheating on her. The two had been together since 2021, although they’ve seemed to call it quits amid Redd’s infidelity.“Just wanted to publicly apologize to Skye do not be mad at her I cheated she not have had the best attitude with me, but she was the most loyal partner I ever had and I lost her,” Trippie Redd wrote, as noted by The Shade Room. “I just want u guys to be better than me. So if u find someone that makes u feel special think before u do [when] [you’re] mad I will never forgive myself for this s**t ever.” Stay tuned to HNHH for more news from around the music world.

Rae Sremmurd Share New Music Video For “Sexy”

Rae Sremmurd are following up their new album earlier this year with yet another music video. Back in April, Rae Sremmurd returned with their first new album since 2018’s SR3MM. Sremm 4 Life had features from Young Thug and Future among its 14-song tracklist. The album went on to debut at number 28 on the Billboard 200, becoming their first studio album to peak outside the top 10. They’ve already released music videos for “Torpedo,” “Tanisha (Pump That),” and “Not So Bad (Lean Gone Cold).”

Now “Sexy” has officially become the 4th track from the album to receive a music video. The Ethan Iverson-directed music video dropped earlier today and features a number of memorable hip-hop motifs. In the clip the duo hang out with some of their famous friends, drinking, flexing expensive items, and causing trouble wherever they go. Locations in the video include a studio, restaurant, hotel room, and even out on a boat. Check out the extravagant new music video below.

Rae Sremmurd Share Luxurious New Video For “Sexy”

All the way back in January, Rae Sremmurd released another new single “Sucka Or Sum.” The song featured the pair trading off verses in their trademark fashion and has racked up nearly 7 million streams. For unspecified reasons, the song was left off Sremm 4 Life when it dropped a few months later. A few weeks before that they dropped the album’s lead single “Torpedo.” The track dropped right at the end of 2022 and became a moderate hit for the pair reaching nearly 12 million streams since it dropped.

Last year, Rolling Loud assembled their own compilation album, and Rae Sremmurd were included on it. They teamed up with Duke Deuce for the song “Finger Food” which served as the lead single for the project. The pair kept plenty busy, even in the 5 years between album releases by dropping a number of singles in the process. What do you think of Rae Sremmurd’s new music video for “Sexy?” Let us know in the comment section below.

Britney Spears’ Stripper Pole Video Earns Her Hilarious Nickname From Plies

There’s no one doing it quite like Britney Spears. The years since the “Womanzier” hitmaker regained freedom from her conservatorship have seen plenty of ups and downs, but through it all, she’s been consistent with one thing – dancing. Seeing as she’s been in the industry for most of her life, it’s no surprise that performing brings Spears a sense of comfort. She has a habit of sharing videos on Instagram that show her grooving along to both popular new releases and throwback hits. The pop sensation is often scantily clad in these videos, and this past weekend, we saw one of her most provocative clips to date.

Spears boldly added a stripper pole to her usual set-up, spinning around on it in a tiny leopard-print bikini while “Closer” by Nine Inch Nails blasts in the background. Seeing as Plies has been hyping the former child star up for the past few weeks, we’ve been anticipating his reaction to Brit’s antics. Thankfully, they arrived on Monday (August 14) afternoon, and were just as entertaining as we expected them to be. “There she go!” the rapper squealed with delight while showing off his favourite girl.

“Wahoo! There she go! Oh ho! That muthaf**ka look like Diamond from ‘The Players Club’! Look!” he added, referring to LisaRay McCoy’s character from the 1998 film. “My white diamond! Come on, white diamond! Whoo hoo! Throw that little pw**sy! Throw that little pw**sy, Brit! Brit! You know what I’m waitin’ on, Brit! Brit! Go to pound town, Brit!” When Spears makes his dreams come true by spreading her legs in front of the camera, Plies drops his phone out of sheer excitement, making viewers of his post laugh along with him.

When she’s not busy entertaining Plies and the rest of the world with her dance moves, Britney Spears fans have been happy to see her back in the studio. She most recently reconnected with Will.i.am for “Mind Your Business.” Tap into that at the link below if you didn’t last month, and come back later for more music/pop culture news updates.

Coi Leray Expertly Rejects Fan Using ChatGPT To Flirt With Her

The DMs of an everyday hot girl can get chaotic enough, so we can’t imagine what the message requests folders of our favourite rap divas look like. Every so often we’re lucky enough to get a glimpse into the antics that play out on platforms like Instagram, though it’s rare to actually get a response from celebrities. As Uproxx reports, a Coi Leray lover who decided to shoot his shot with the “Blick Blick” hitmaker was lucky enough to catch her attention, though he failed to meet his objective of securing a date with her.

“Give me one date and it will be the best night you’ve ever had,” the streamer wrote to Leray in a screen recording later shared on TikTok. Much to his shock, she replied, “What’s the date?” It’s clear he wasn’t anticipating hearing back from the Boston native, as the OP quickly turned to everyone’s current piece of AI technology – ChatGPT – to give him some suggestions.

Coi Leray Continues to Curve Men in Her DMs

His pick, “Take a boat ride and watch the sunset” certainly sounds simple and romantic. However, it clearly wasn’t enough to satisfy Leray’s luxurious tastes. “Take a boat ride out of my DMs,” she cleverly rejected the man, leaving those who have seen his video of the interaction laughing. Interestingly, it was only a few weeks ago when Power actor Gianni Paolo revealed to TMZ that the fashionista was also impressed with his attempts to flirt with her, ultimately leaving him on read.

It wasn’t so long ago that Coi Leray unleashed her self-titled sophomore album on the world. Unfortunately, her first-week sales numbers weren’t as high as anticipated, but still, the young star got plenty of support from fellow artists and fans on her latest work. She obviously isn’t letting the critics get her down, as she announced earlier this week that she’ll be dropping a six-track EP in the very near future. Read more about that at the link below, and check back later for more hip-hop/pop culture news updates.

Move Over PinkyDoll: Nicki Minaj Joins NPC TikTok Trend In Hilarious Video

TikTok has brought forth plenty of interesting trends since its inception. The latest one taking over the internet is NPC streaming. If you’re not familiar, the acronym stands for “non-playable character,” and finds users acting like video game extras while taking direction from those tuning into their broadcasts, usually in exchange for money. PinkyDoll is one of the best-known TikTokers blowing up thanks to her NPC posts and streams, though it seems Queen of Rap Nicki Minaj is coming to give her a run for her money.

On Sunday (August 13), a video from the mother of one’s latest Live quickly began making rounds. “A TikTok gun, it’s sending out money,” Minaj says in a robotic-like voice as viewers add on-screen effects to her face and background. “Oh, it’s a microphone. Y’all know what I do on that mic. I dest- I destroy these h*es. Whoa, a cake! Um, something from medieval times,” she continues, trying to keep up with the never-ending random objects being thrown at her.

Nicki Minaj is an NPC Natural

While her performance was pretty impressive, Minaj did break character a few times throughout. “Get them muthaf**kin hands outta here,” she sternly tells misbehaving viewers. “I told y’all that b**ch, don’t get blocked, b**ch.” Without missing a beat she then went back into NPC mode, continuing to amuse us with her effortless comedy routine. It’s unclear if we’ll be seeing the “Barbie Dreams” hitmaker partaking in the trend anymore in the future, but as many are pointing out, she could easily make a career for herself as a fulltime TikTok star.

It’s not likely we’ll see Nicki Minaj and PinkyDoll dropping a song together anytime soon (though the Head Barb has made a point of working with lesser-known artists lately). Still, she has her sights set on connecting with Ice Spice in the future, and some fans seem to be on board with the idea. Read more about that at the link below, and check back later for more hip-hop/pop culture news updates.

Ari Lennox Calls Phor’s Bedroom Pegging Confession “Beautiful”

The news cycle for the past few weeks has been particularly chaotic, and notably caused many debates about relationships and sexuality. Ne-Yo’s thoughts on children wanting to transition into the LGBTQ+ community before they’re of legal age came with plenty of backlash. Elsewhere, Finesse2tymes is being criticized for allowing his 10-year-old son to perform concerning lyrics to a crowd of thousands. Another person who’s been feeling the heat for expressing themselves is Phor, though he appears to be the only one channelling his energy in a productive way.

Earlier this month, the tattoo artist went viral due to a leaked photo from his OnlyFans that shows him spending time in a dog cage. “I’ve been a laid back n***a most of my life, most of this whole TV shit. I been chilling. Now that I’m at a place where I’m good and I’m getting my mind right and I’m doing what I wanna do outside of tattooing and music and TV shows n***a, I’m just doing me, I’m just living my life,” he clapped back at those shaming him.

Phor Gets Real About His Unconventional Sex Life

As they say, there’s no such thing as bad press, and Phor is taking full advantage of the attention he’s got from his NSFW content. On Angela Yee’s Lip Service podcast he spoke candidly about his experiences with pegging, being walked on a leash, and water sports – something Yung Miami is also familiar with.

As expected, some additional hate has come the 36-year-old’s way for being so honest about his sexual preferences. Thankfully he’s capable of letting the negative comments roll right off his back by now, especially because of the support he’s simultaneously been getting from other stars.

After watching a snippet from Phor’s interview that’s circulating online, Ari Lennox dropped by @theneighborhoodtalk’s comment section to shut down anyone poking fun at the OnlyFans creator. “I think this is beautiful ❤. Good for him,” she wrote. Upon seeing her words, Phor took a screenshot to share on his IG Story, writing “❤ a real one.” Do you agree with Ari’s opinion?

Anna Paul & Glen Thomson Split Confirmed By OnlyFans Creator After 8 Years Together

When summer first began, the energy of love was flowing freely in the air. Rumoured new couples were popping up left and right, though few of them stood the test of time (such as Summer Walker and Lil Meech). We’ve seen an abundance of breakups in the headlines in more recent weeks, from the Prime Minister of Canada and his wife to Ariana Grande and Dalton Gomez. Today (August 12) marked the confirmation of another popular pair’s demise – Anna Paul and Glen Thomson.

You may recognize the pair from their popular ventures on TikTok, or for those of you who enjoy less wholesome content, on OnlyFans. Paul has accumulated over seven million followers on the former platform and is best known for vlogging virtually every day of her daily life as she travels around the world with friends and family. She and Glen have been together since they were in high school, and when discussing her career as a sex worker, Paul has been candid in sharing how she and Powell navigate that part of their relationship (he films most of her content).

Anna Paul Gets Emotional When Discussing Her Breakup

@anna..paull

Please be nice in the comments, its allll love

♬ original sound – Anna Paul

In a video posted on Saturday morning, Anna emotionally revealed that she and her long-term partner have decided to split up. “So, Glen and I broke up. We were together for eight years, and I know that my relationship is a relationship that you guys look up to,” the internet star told her audience while fighting off tears. She noted that the decision was a completely mutual one, and the Australian’s ex even appeared in the last few seconds of the clip to plant a sweet kiss on her head. It’s unclear if this will cause a dramatic change in the way Anna shares her life with the world, but regardless, we wish her and Glen the best going forward.

It’s not only women like Anna Paul and Iggy Azalea who are bringing in the big bucks on OnlyFans. Rappers like Blueface and Sauce Walka are getting their share too – in fact, the latter recently celebrated his $10M earnings with his “ONLY FANS” single. Stream that at the link below, and check back later for more hip-hop/pop culture news updates.

Chrisean Rock’s Sister Tesehki Throws Water On Her: Video

For the more fortunate among us women, pregnancy is a time that finds you surrounded by loved ones and a peaceful environment as you prepare to bring new life into the world. For Chrisean Rock, her experience has been anything but serene. In fact, that 23-year-old has contemplated terminating on more than one occasion, especially when Blueface made it abundantly clear that he doesn’t plan to play the role of father in her family. There’s also been the hate Rock has gotten from those in her baby daddy’s circle, such as his first co-parent, Jaidyn Alexis, and his mother, Karlissa Saffold.

It’s no secret that the entertainer’s own family hasn’t always been supportive of her endeavours. Chrisean and her sister, Tesehki, have had several heated blowouts over the years, and during a recent episode of her Zeus reality series, the expecting mother even put her hands on her sibling. While that incident happened a few months ago, it seems Tesehki got her revenge this weekend while filming Baddies.

In the clip above, Rock is seen getting splashed by a ton of water from someone inside the van she just exited. Rather than lashing out as she would’ve in the past, the Baltimore native kept her cool as Tesehki continued to yell at her out the window.

Her discontent was obvious, but Chrisean saved her thoughts for the internet. “You tried me for clout. Everything [that] happened after [that you] deserve it. The jealousy was clear as day 😂🥱,” she tweeted as the footage began making circulating online late last night.

I don’t start s**t, I finish it 😂😂😂😂😂😂.” Do you think Tesehki was out of line for throwing water at her pregnant sister?
