No stranger to the thirst-trap game, Charlie Puth has taken the concept to a whole new level with his racy new photoshoot for Interview Magazine.

Kelis is keeping her private life private. After it was reported last week that the 43-year-old “Milkshake” singer and chef is dating 72-year-old Ghostbuster star Bill Murray, the internet could not get enough of the alleged May-December romance. And while neither of them have officially confirmed the relationship, Murray was seen watching Kelis’ set at […]
Taylor Swift and Matty Healy are no more, according to multiple reports. And whether fans are absolutely heartbroken or have been waiting eagerly for this day since the romance rumors first swirled in May, they have a lot to say about it online. Word of the apparent split first came Monday (June 5), with TMZ […]
As a Grammy winner, Billboard Hot 100 chart-topper, rapper, songwriter and actress, Cardi B’s list of talents and accomplishments is already lengthy. Now, the “Bodak Yellow” rapper can add chef to that list.
In a new interview with People, Cardi revealed, “I usually am not a person that cooks, but I have been cooking because I got two kids now. So it’s like you really just don’t have a choice.” The Bronx rapper is a mother to two children with husband Offset — Kulture, 4 and Wave, 2. “It doesn’t matter if you’re rich or not or you’re famous or not. It’s like your kids, when they hungry, they going to be like, ‘I want it, and you got to cook it now.’”
In recent weeks, Cardi has headlined Hot 97 Summer Jam and teamed up with Latto for “Put It On the Floor Again,” but the star — who has a new collaboration with Knorr — is focusing on her skills in the kitchen and putting dishes together. Included on her menu is her own chicken recipe, which she says is a “quick” one. But more important than it being fast to put together, “My daughter loves [it],” Cardi told the magazine. “Because she is picky girl, she don’t like nothing.”
From Atlanta to New York City, there are many different cultures represented in Cardi and Offset’s household. Nonetheless, Cardi tends to prioritize what’s easiest for her. “My husband loves soul food, but my daughter, she don’t really care for that. She just likes the simple things. So she loves chicken pasta,” she says of the dish she calls the “Marry Me Pasta.”
“I like to cook tacos,” she added. “I like to cook everything that’s easy. That’s what I like to do. I hate doing hard stuff.”
Now that Cardi, 30, has a family of her own, she can reflect on her own cooking journey. “You know what’s so crazy?” she mused. “I wish that things were a little bit easier when I was 18 and I got kicked out and I started learning how to cook. Because now you could just literally go to YouTube and learn how to cook everything.”

Tionne “T-Box” Watkins and Rozonda “Chilli” Thomas will share the story of their lives in how they “broke boundaries, influenced an entire generation and survived against all odds” in the Lifetime documentary TLC Forever, premiering Saturday (June 3) at 8 p.m. ET/PT.

The two-and-half-hour documentary chronicles the group’s journey through music – from their start in the ‘90s to their message, style, legacy and the tragic death Lisa “Left Eye” Lopez. The documentary will feature appearances from other music industry colleagues such as Missy Elliott and Dave Grohl.
After Left Eye’s tragic death in 2002, T-Boz and Chili were not only grieving the loss of their group member and friend, but they were also uncertain about the future of TLC. In an interview with USA Today, T-Boz theorized that Left Eye would be the “female Kanye West” if she were alive today.
“I said that because Lisa was always just saying things. If she had Twitter fingers, she’d be all over the place and have something to say about everything and not care,” she explained. “She’d be making all of the shocking comments. And Kanye was the only comparison I could think of about what my sister would be like now.”
T-Box and Chilli are executive producers alongside Bill Diggins for Diggit Entertainment Group and Rick Krim; Roger Ross Williams and Geoff Martz for One Story Up. Elaine Frontain Bryant and Brad Abramson are executive producers for A+E Networks. The documentary is produced by One Story Up and Lauren Fulton for Lifetime and A&E Network.

Grimes just got some new ink. On Instagram Stories, the musician showed off two fresh tattoos on her ear and leg, the latter of which covers the entirety of her calf and most of her thigh.
Tagging the tattoo artist and thanking them for their work, Grimes first gave followers a look at the blood red design on her leg. Sprawling upwards from her ankle, past her knee and to her mid thigh, the ink looks like a sheath of either delicate plants or a thin skeleton of bones. At the top of the design, the “Oblivion” singer got a red crescent moon stamped a few inches above her knee cap.
“thank u @grimes,” wrote tattoo artist Daniela, captioning more photos of Grimes’ leg on Instagram. “such a pleasure working with u on this piece.”
Grimes also shared a close-up photo of her ear, which now boasts a spiky black design. “Gna get get better pics but thank u @zhenja_tttr for doing my ear !!!” she wrote. “One step closer to face tattoooooo.”
Though the ink takes up most of her right ear, it’s actually not the most major modification to that particular body part that Grimes has expressed wanting to make. In August, the Canada native said on Twitter that she was considering getting surgery to reshape her cartilage into the shape of “elf” ears.
“Especially as a musician this surgery seems risky but I’ve wanted it my whole life,” she tweeted last year, to which her ex partner, billionaire Tesla founder Elon Musk, replied, “The downside of elf ear surgery probably outweighs the upside.”
Grimes, who shares two children with Musk, also revealed at the time that she had plans for a full-body tattoo; so perhaps her new leg ink is part of her vision. “I have a full body tattoo in the works!” she tweeted in August. “These next few years will be spent doing al my dream body mods.”
See pictures of her new ink on Grimes’ Story, before they disappear, here. And see the photos the tattoo artist shared below:
It’s a little too late for Rihanna to take her own advice. The 35-year-old recently sported a joking “Use a Condom” T-shirt in a handful of new Instagram photos. She and A$AP Rocky are expecting their second child, and she’s currently in her third trimester. In the photos shared Thursday (June 1), Ri poses in […]
