Flo Milli knows how to shut down a red carpet. The “Pucci Princess” went viral after wearing a printed Pucci dress to the 2023 BET Hip Hop Awards on Oct. 3.

More specifically, Pucci’s Onde-print minidress, which she sported with a matching baseball cap and paired with orange heels. The “Fruit Loop” rapper posted photos and videos of herself in the dress on Instagram with the captions “Pucci Prince$$,” “Pressure “and “in her element.”

Pucci is having a major moment in music. Beyoncé donned a gorgeous custom Pucci look for the Renaissance World Tour, and Cardi B was spotted in a similarly vibrant Pucci outfit in May during an event for Whipshots, her line of spiked whipped cream.

Flo Milli is no stranger to Pucci. The stylish rapper wore a custom Pucci bathing suit and matching coverup to Coachella earlier this year. And she’s not the only rapper who chose Pucci for the BET Hip Hop Awards. Baby Tate wore a vibrant Pucci halterneck minidress to awards show.

The 2023 BET Hip Hop Awards will air next Tuesday, Oct. 10, at 9 p.m. ET on BET, with Fat Joe returning as host. Cardi B, 21 Savage, Burna Boy, Coi Leray, GloRilla, Latto, Lil Durk, Kendrick Lamar and J. Cole are among this year’s nominees. The show will feature performances from GloRilla, Sexyy Red, DaBaby, Fivio Foreign and more, along with a deejay and producer tribute featuring Kid Capri, Kool DJ Red Alert, Scott Storch and Spinderella.

Shop Flo Milli’s Pucci dress below. And if you’re on a tighter budget, find Pucci-inspired printed dresses at retailers such as ASOS, Princess Polly, Revolve and Amazon.

The Basic plan is the cheapest option and gives you an ad-supported experience, but if you’d prefer no ads, then you can get the Premium plan for $10.99/month.

Besides Loki, you’ll have access to the entire Disney+ library including content from National Geographic, Marvel and more. Exclusive content, shows and movies you can look forward to watching include American Born Chinese, WandaVision, The Mandalorian, Hocus Pocus, Hocus Pocus 2, Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, Disenchanted, Dancing With the Stars, She-Hulk, Lightyear, Pinocchio, The Proud Family: Louder & Prouder, High School Musical: The Musical: The Series, Hawkeye, Light & Magic, WandaVision, The Mandalorian, Loki, I Am Groot, The Book of Boba Fett, The Beatles: Get Back and BTS: Permission to Dance on Stage LA.

Love to bundle? You can save and expand your library of content by bundling Disney+ with Hulu and ESPN+. If you also want to watch live TV, then you can subscribe to Hulu + Live TV for even more content offerings.

Starting at $49.99 at Amazon, Best Buy, Target and Walmart, Assassin’s Creed Mirage is playable on Xbox Series X and PS5, as well as the previous generations Xbox One and PS4 (and Windows PC), in two editions: Launch and Deluxe.

Wondering what the difference is between the two editions? The standard Launch Edition features the game and a DLC (downloadable content) expansion called “Forty Thieves Quest,” while the Deluxe Edition — which goes for $59.99 — comes with both the game and DLC, as well as a digital artbook, digital soundtrack and new Prince of Persia-inspired outfits and skins.

As for the game itself, Assassin’s Creed Mirage takes place during the Golden Age of Baghdad, a few decades before Valhalla. It’s a “coming-of-age story” that follows Basim Ibn Ishaq, played by Lee Majdoub, a street thief who learns the world is much bigger than himself. His mentor Roshan, played by Shohreh Aghdashloo, trains him to join the Hidden One, an order of Middle Eastern assassins.

The game is expected to also be playable for the Apple iPhone 15 sometime in early 2024. Mirage will be the first Assassin’s Creed game to be officially released, natively, for the premium smartphone.

Assassin’s Creed Mirage for Xbox and PlayStation is available now at all sorts of online retailers. The game goes for $49.99 for the Launch Edition and $59.99 for the Deluxe Edition.

After Pickle (singing The Who’s “Pinball Wizard”), Gazelle (Katy Perry’s “The One That Got Away”), Cow (Bruno Mars’ “Treasure”), S’more (Maroon 5’s “Moves Like Jagger”), and Diver (OneRepublic’s “I Ain’t Worried”) gave it their best shot, Diver was given the heave-ho.

When the helmet came off, the confetti fell, jaws dropped and Bravo’s Vanderpump Rules supervillain Tom Sandoval gave the crowd a wave.

Ken Jeong chose right for the second straight week. And with it, season 10 of Fox’s bizarre singing competition unmasked perhaps the “second-most hated person” in its history, notes Variety’s Michael Schneider, behind only disgraced former New York mayor Rudy Giuliani, who appeared in season seven.

If Jeong guessed right, he wasn’t the only one. Internet sleuths figured out the man behind the mask well ahead of the big reveal.

“So much fun,” Sandoval said of his experience on The Masked Singer. “Being able to come out here and perform behind the mask, not being judged, just being judged on my performance, it was really nice.”

Being a top TV villain, was it tough going on the show? “It was, but it was nice, I felt protected under the mask,” he continued. “This costume is incredible. There’s so many talented people here I feel honored to be part of it.”

Hosted by Nick Cannon, the latest season includes a 16-strong fleet of contestants disguised in extravagant costumes including a Husky, Royal Hen, Tiki, Hawk, Hibiscus and Anteater.

Sandoval (Diver) joins Anthony Anderson as Rubber Ducky and Demi Lovato as Anonymouse as season 10’s unmasked celebrities.
