Offset isn’t letting anyone shake his confidence following his split from Cardi B — especially fans claiming his famous ex is the only reason other women have dated him since.
In a since-deleted post on X Tuesday (Feb. 18), the Migos rapper shut down a troll who wrote that “the only reason” he’s attractive to women is “because he was married to Cardi B.” “Incorrect lol I’m him,” ‘Set simply replied, according to VIBE.
Earlier in the thread, another person had pulled up five-year-old screenshots of posts by Atlanta model Melanie Jayda — whom Offset is rumored to be dating — praising the “WAP” hitmaker back in 2019. “Just excited to get Cardi’s leftovers,” the user had written of Jayda.

Another Cardi fan also got a reaction out of the “Stir Fry” artist by writing, “Offset is operating from a bruised ego!! Cardi not only moved on, she upgraded … with another man who is better looking and has more money,” potentially referring to the Grammy winner’s rumored new boyfriend, Houston Texans wide receiver Stefon Diggs.
“You b—hes delulu wouldn’t I be the perfect n—a if …,” Offset wrote in another now-deleted reply. “Stop talking bout money baby u delusional.”
The exchanges come about seven months after Cardi filed to divorce ‘Set for a second time. Just over a month later, the couple’s third child arrived Sept. 7, 2024.
The exes have been going back and forth on where they stand ever since. While the Whipshots founder has said she wants a “healthy co-parenting relationship” with Offset, both hip-hop stars have put each other on blast online multiple times. In December, for instance, the “Ric Flair Drop” musician accused Cardi of focusing on “d—” and trying to “make me look bad,” after which she fired back, “So dating because I’m single means I’m just worried about d—?? You sound like a dummy … F–k off and sign the papers TODAY.”
Cut to Valentine’s Day, and Offset appeared to air out his grievances on a new single titled “Ten.” “I don’t need you, I got money/ I don’t miss you, I got money,” he spits on the track. “Love you, but not like money/ Love all my hoes the same.”

Over the past year or so, Jelly Roll has been open about his dedication to working to transform his health. Last year, he ran his first 5K, taking part in Tom Segura and Bert Kreischer’s 2 Bears 5K.
Now, the country star is gearing up to run his second 5K race in May in Tampa, Fla, and he’s intent on helping others who also want to change their health for the better. The “Halfway to Hell” singer told fans on Instagram Feb. 11 that he is launching Jelly Roll’s Losers Run Club as he gears up for the race.
In the video, he also told fans just how much his poor health was impacting his daily life, and how that inspired him to want to change.
Trending on Billboard
“A little bit over a year ago, I literally struggled to walk down my hill to the mailbox, y’all. I mean, it was really bad,” Jelly Roll said in the video. “And I’d let myself get to the point of being absolutely just disgusted with myself. I was just sick and tired of it, and I was like, ‘Man, I’m gonna figure this out. And about the time I was trying to find something to motivate me, I saw that Tom Segura had teased doing a 5K By May, and I knew right then that if there was ever a place that I was gonna feel safe trying to do my first 5K, it was going to be at the 2 Bears 5K.”
As he launches Jelly Roll’s Losers Run Club, the star said he’s launching a Facebook group, and has teamed with the Strava app to help others train for the race and stay motivated. Jelly Roll’s trainer Ian Larios will be helping people who take part with lifestyle, nutrition and exercise coaching. Meanwhile, ultramarathoner Matthew Johnson put together two plan options — one for beginners, as well as an intermediate plan — for partakers to train for the race.
“Matthew Johnson has the fastest time running across the state of Texas,” Jelly Roll said in the video. “This man is an absolute machine. I love everything about him, the fact that he is dedicating the next 12 weeks of his life to try and help me and a bunch of people like myself to run in a 5K.”
“What we are trying to inspire here is just change and belief and community,” Jelly Roll summarized of the group’s mission. “Somewhere where you can go and feel judgment-free when you’re trying to figure this thing out. I know how rough it was at first and how embarrassed I was to just be sucking snot and air every time I walked down the driveway. But it felt so good to have friends and people behind me, telling me I was doing the right thing. … I believe that we can create huge change right here. I believe a huge group of people can come together right here and encourage each other to become what they always dreamed they could be.”

Valentine’s Day is this Friday (Feb. 14) and we’re already seeing the evidence of such with flowers, cards, and candies on full display online, where we shop, and beyond. For Valentine’s Day, we’ve put together a cannabis gift guide for the lovers out there, even those flying solo.
With Valentine’s Day falling on a Friday this year, we can expect every restaurant that’s been buzzing online to be fully booked and that there won’t be many empty spaces where folks socialize as couples take to the streets. Beyond the cute dates and nightlife, some folks will stay indoors and find ways to connect in loving ways. Safely adding cannabis to the could have some very positive effects, especially for couples.
In this roundup, we’ve got some brands we’ve featured in previous cannabis gift guides along with some items especially tailored for sexy time. Also, we’ve got devices that can be shared with your loved one, rolling papers, cones, and other communal applications to enjoy each other’s time with a little enhancement. We even have drinks for those engaging in the California sober trend (and we’ll cover that trend very soon too).
I want to wish our readers a happy, safe, and enjoyable Valentine’s Day. As I always like to say, indulge responsibly and keep your wares tucked safely away. We’ve got a lot of celebrating to do this weekend and for the rest of the year.

Patrick Mahomes is happy Taylor Swift is in his circle. During a press conference ahead of the 2025 Super Bowl, the player opened up about what it’s like having the pop star in his life since she started dating Travis Kelce — from getting her support at Kansas City Chiefs games to welcoming her into […]
The Super Bowl is less than a week away, meaning championship rings are on a lot people’s minds — but is Travis Kelce thinking about another type of ring for Taylor Swift?
While speaking to reporters at the Super Bowl’s opening night in New Orleans Monday (Feb. 3), the tight end was asked whether he plans on popping the question to his superstar girlfriend at the Kansas City Chiefs’ ultimate game against the Philadelphia Eagles this weekend. In response, Kelce smiled coyly.
“Wouldn’t you like to know?” he replied cheekily.
Trending on Billboard
Engagement rumors have surrounded the New Heights podcaster and Swift since early on in their relationship, which began in the summer of 2023. In fact, this latest bout of ring-related speculation mirrors similar questions Kelce dodged ahead of last year’s Super Bowl, which Kansas City went on to win against the San Francisco 49ers.
But while he didn’t clear anything up at Monday’s press conference, Kelce did gush about the “Fortnight” singer’s culinary abilities. “Oh, she is quite the cook,” he said at one point before revealing his favorite dish Swift makes: “Her Pop Tarts are unbelievable.”
“I better hold up my end of the bargain, right?” Kelce added of Swift’s work ethic elsewhere in the Q&A session. “She’s up there being the superstar that she is and never taking no for an answer and always working her tail off. I better match that energy for sure.”
The opening night press junket comes one day after the musician attended the 2025 Grammys, to which Swift arrived solo in a Chiefs-red dress with a “T” charm attached to the hem. She didn’t win any out of her six nominations, but the “Karma” artist did inspire several viral moments during the ceremony’s broadcast, from snagging Janelle Monáe’s jacket to dancing with Alicia Keys’ son Genesis.
The award show marked Swift’s first Grammys since closing out her billion-dollar Eras Tour in December. At one of the run’s final stops, the songwriter played at New Orleans’ Caesars Superdome — the very same stadium where the Super Bowl will take place Sunday (Feb. 9).
While performing “Midnight Rain” at the venue Oct. 28, Swift did one of her boyfriend’s signature dance moves and held up three fingers, seemingly hoping to prime the stadium for a record third Chiefs Super Bowl win in a row. On Monday, Kelce was asked about the gesture.
“We both, we love to manifest things,” he replied, smiling. “Whatever she was doing, I’m sure it helped. And for me, not being able to be here supporting her during those weeks, it made me feel like I was there.”
Jordan Davis and his wife Kristen are expecting their fourth child in June.
The five-time Billboard Country Airplay chart-topper revealed that his family is growing by posting a humorous video that opens with Davis standing by a pool and sipping on a beer, as the theme song to the TV series Full House plays in the background.
“Well, this is a dude, well a dad. Three beautiful children,” he says in a voiceover. “What’s better than three? What’s better than three is four.” Meanwhile, the video shows footage of some of his older children crying, and one of them rolling a toy truck into a balcony wall.

“That’s where we’re gonna be at come June. Baby Davis No. 4,” he adds. “Look out! Now you may be thinking, ‘How’s this dude gonna do it?’ … But, the dude abides. 2025’s gonna be a big one. Namely because, we’re gonna be welcoming a brand new baby. Love to meet you, baby Davis — I’m gonna need a few more of these things.” Davis then takes a long swig of his drink.

“Let’s keep the party going,” he says as the clip concludes.
Davis captioned the video with a humorous note, writing, “To contribute to the Baby Davis #4 diaper fund, please stream my music and buy tickets.”
The couple wed in 2017, and are parents to Eloise (5), Locklan (3) and Elijah (19 months).
Davis’s upcoming shows for 2025 include stops at iconic Texas venue Billy Bob’s, as well as a performance at Tortuga Music Festival. Meanwhile, his current single “I Ain’t Sayin’” is in the top five on the Country Airplay chart. Last year, Davis’s song “Next Thing You Know” won song of the year at the Academy of Country Music Awards. He wrote the track with Chase McGill, Greylan James and Josh Osborne.
