Lil Nas X opened up about his sex life and seemingly alluded to his member on his new song “Trust Me.”
The 25-year-old rapper dropped the track on Wednesday (April 24). It’s a reflective anthem that addresses everything from his earliest experiences with other men to more recent ones.
While reflecting on the presents, he appeared to hint at his size in a clever way.

Lil Nas X opens “Trust Me” with recollections about using Grindr, an LGBTQ+ app often used for hooking up, while in college.
“Grindr sessions sextin’ with faceless accounts / Bringing’ bodies in me, then sneaking them out,” he raps on the first verse.
As he continues, he looks even further back in time: “Back in middle school, I was fiending for d-ck / 7th grade, sending my homies some pics / Daddy never knew what...

It’s been two weeks since Lil Nas X made his Biblical return with “J Christ”; now, the pop star is back with a new single: “Where Do We Go Now?” written for his upcoming documentary, Lil Nas X: Long Live Montero.
With a slower tempo and a ballad feel, “Where Do We Go Now?” shows a more emotional side of Lil Nas X, with lyrics describing self-doubt and loss. The refrain asks “So where do we go now?/ We did everything so endlessly/And only to feel undone/ So where are we going?” while on the climatic bridge, Nas sings “I just wanna feel consoled inside/ I just wanna be somebody new inside/ I just wanna be somebody else out there/ I just wanna be somebody.”
Musically, the song speaks to Lil Nas X’s genre-blending approach, featuring elements of pop, hip-hop, and pop-punk, while having just the right...

Seemingly dropped purposefully on June 9th , Sam Smith and Madonna have shared their new single “Vulgar.” Give it a listen below.
Smith teased the song with a brief, eight-second clip on their socials that featured the title, release date, and both artists’ initials, which conveniently happen to be “S&m.” The full song, true to its name, goes all out, placing the duo’s charms in a hard-hitting pop setting with Eastern-influenced strings and fiery ad-libs from Madonna, like “Do you know how to spell my name?/ B I T C H/ Go fuck yourself/ You heard me, bitch.”
But “Vulgar” isn’t unnecessarily filthy — rather, the artists are asserting a message of empowerment, and demanding respect. In February, Madonna introduced Smith’s performance of “Unholy” with Kim Petras at the 2023 Grammy Awards, which sparked a wave of condemnation from conservative figures. “Are you ready for some controversy?” Madonna asked the Grammys crowd.

Maybe if Jesus Christ was a super slayer “divin’ off the stage,” Kim Petras would want to be like him. On Thursday, the German pop star released her follow-up single to “Unholy” with Sam Smith, “If Jesus Was a Rockstar.”
“If Jesus was a rock star/Throwin’ daddy’s money all around/While he was gettin’ down/So they kicked him out of the bar/Then I’d, I’d wanna be just like him,” she sings in the chorus.

Almost one year ago, Reneé Rapp got her heart broken — and in a “really shitty way,” as she puts it. But instead of falling into despair, the “Sex Lives of College Girls” star immediately called her manager.
“I explained it to him like, ‘I feel it in my fingers that this is going to be the year that everything I have ever wanted to happen can happen,’” Rapp tells Variety over lattes in a cozy Toluca Lake coffee shop. “It was like getting out of that relationship made me confident.”
At first glance, it’s hard to imagine that the 22-year-old singer and actor could harbor any insecurities. She speaks with an unabashed openness from the start, discussing everything from her dating life (“I’ve had so many tiny failed relationships this year”) to the intricacies of her Zodiac sign with the familiarity of an old friend.

The TikTok star posed with her boyfriend Omer Fedi in the photos and opted for some solo shots as well.
Addison let the pictures do the talking and chose a simple black heart emoji for the caption.
Her boyfriend may be a good distraction as her parents have controversies, which has led to her unfollowing both.
The 21-year-old posted an Instagram carousel featuring eight photos in barely-there attire.

The 2022 Grammy Awards broadcast wrapped up with an upset victory of sorts, with Jon Batiste beating out the likes of Taylor Swift and Kanye west to take home Album of the Year for his excellent “We Are.”
That was his fifth win of the night, following four wins during the “Premiere Ceremony,” where all of the awards not deemed cool enough for television were handed out, hosted by the always wonderful Levar Burton.
Batiste also accomplished a rather ignominious milestone for the Grammy Awards themselves: He’s the first Black artist to win Album of the Year since Herbie Hancock back in 2008. You read that right: It’s literally been 14 years and 3 presidents since the Academy recognized the work of Black artists with this honor. And in case you’re wondering, the only nonwhite artist to win Best Album during that time was Bruno Mars in 2018.

Addison Rae and Omer Fedi have officially made their red carpet debut. The couple posed hand in hand at Sunday night's Grammys, serving quite a bit of Pda for their special appearance in Las Vegas. Since the internet personality and Grammy-nominated producer were first linked together in August 2021, they've shared their relationship on social media and at various events, but this marks their first joint red carpet.
Rae wore a white slip dress from Nili Lotan, while Fedi chose a deconstructed suit, as the two kissed, touched tongues, and embraced for the cameras. In fact, they reminded us of their friends Kourtney Kardashian and Travis Barker, who also enjoy a little red carpet Pda.
