Nicki Minaj has been known to troll her fanbase in the past and her use of Twitter is always a great place to start those little fires. Today, Nicki hopped on Twitter where she engaged with her fans about the success of her "Say So" remix with Doja Cat. For the most part, Nicki fielded numerous questions about the song and how the collaboration ultimately came about.

However, at one point, a fan asked Nicki about whether or not she has been having morning sickness which, of course, is a sign that you might be pregnant. Nicki took the bait and answered the question, noting that she has been nauseous and going to the bathroom more than usual. From there, a fan asked if she would be showing off a baby pump anytime soon. Minaj answered that question, as well, saying: "Yea in a couple months. The world ain’t ready yet." 

Khabib Nurmagomedov was supposed to defend his belt against Tony Ferguson at UFC 249 but that is no longer happening because Khabib is stuck in Russie amidst the Coronavirus pandemic. Russia is one of the hardest-hit countries in the world right now and travel restrictions have made it impossible for Nurmagomedov to fight right now. Instead, Ferguson will be fighting Justin Gaethje this Saturday, although fans are still disappointed that Khabib won't make it.

Ferguson has been quite harsh on Khabib, saying he purposely went to Russie, knowing it would eventually close before the fight. During today's episode of First Take, Ferguson reiterated his distaste for Khabib and noted that the UFC fighter doesn't exist to him anymore. Ferguson also thinks Khabib should just relinquish his belt and retire from the sport completely. 

DaBaby just made one aspiring rapper’s day. The Blame It On Baby rapper may still be riding the high from the release of his new album, but he’s making sure he takes the time to give those lesser known artists a chance. On Wednesday, Baby posted a video on his Instagram story, in which a fan can be seen standing in the doorway of his car, holding a homemade mixtape.

Baby asks him to introduce himself, and the young man lets him know that he goes by “City Boy The Rapper,” and that he’s trying to make it big just like DaBaby. When City Boy tries to hand him a mixtape, Baby asks him how much he wants for it. “Shit, you can get it for free,” he says. However, DaBaby insists on paying, and asks again how much he’s selling it for. When he tells him it’s $10, Baby hands over two fives, and encourages him to “keep that shit up.”

“That shit possible,” he tells City Boy, who tosses out his Instagram handle. DaBaby made sure to tag the up-and-comer on the story, which no doubt gave him some some major exposure. What a wholesome moment.

If you went back in time and ran into a young Anderson .Paak, you may have not have even recognized him. The singer decided to take part in the age old practice of throwing it back on Thursdays by posting an old photo of himself from back in the day. He paired the shot with with a current photo of himself in the gym, and it’s safe to say that he looks pretty different now. By putting these photos next to each other, Anderson really drove the point home that he’s undergone a bit of a transformation over the years, not only by tatting himself up and losing his glasses, but also by losing some weight and getting chiseled. 

“#TBT got me saying woooooow,” he wrote on the post. Regardless of how his looks have changed, he was still adorable back then, but it looks like he posted the comparison for a reason. It appears that Anderson is on a bit of a fitness journey, as he went on to post a video on his Instagram story showing himself stepping on a scale with the caption, “10 more lbs to gooooo.” The scale read that he weighs “175.8 lbs,” meaning his goal weight is around 165 lbs. Best of luck on your progress Anderson!

Here we go… Celina Powell, a self-proclaimed thot and one of the industry’s most notorious ones at that, has been peddling her official OnlyFans account and, lo and behold, she’s claiming to have some dirt.

If you’ve heard of Celina Powell, you likely already know of her alleged sexcapades with rappers like Snoop Dogg, Tory Lanez, 6ix9ine, Offset, and more. She was caught blatantly lying about being pregnant with Offset’s child, nearly breaking up the man’s marriage with Cardi B and, these days, she’s seemingly trying to split up another one of hip-hop’s royal couples.

Several months ago, Powell claimed that Snoop Dogg flew her out and they had a cocaine-fueled sex romp. Apparently, that was all caught on video because this week, the self-proclaimed Black Widow allegedly uploaded clips to her OnlyFans of her and Snoop Dogg, 6ix9ine, and DJ Akademiks.

“I dropped exclusive NEVER before seen tapes on 69 and Snoop. Ya’ll thought I was playing. I keep every video,” she reportedly wrote on Instagram Stories, according to Bossip.

On her OnlyFans page, she is charging $29.25 for alleged sex tape footage of Snoop, Tekashi, and Ak. Of course, there is a chance that she is capping about all of this since, you know, she has in the past. Also, isn’t this illegal? Just sayin’…

What do you think of this?

Atlanta rapper Lil Baby has established himself as one of the biggest names in rap this year, earning his first #1 album with My Turn. He just released the deluxe edition with six new songs but the 25-year-old never stops working. He wants to ensure he's always got enough beats to hop in the studio and deliver the magic we know him for and, as a result, he's looking to sign a bunch of up-and-coming producers to his 4PF label.

Making the announcement on Twitter, Lil Baby encouraged producers to send through their beats and information so he could give them a look, potentially even signing them to a life-changing deal. 

If there is one thing for sure about the Coronavirus, it's that it has brought out the worst in some people. COVID-19 has led to the spread of misinformation and some wild conspiracy theories that even include 5G towers and a whole lot of anti-vaxx sentiment. The latest high-profile person to go off on the conspiracy side of things was none other than New Orleans Saints wide receiver, Michael Thomas. 

Today, the superstar wide receiver took to Twitter where he said that vaccines have never been the cure for viruses and that God gifted us with plenty of mechanisms for defeating illnesses on our own. He also expressed doubt in the severity of the virus and even took shots at Bill Gates, saying the guy who created Microsoft could never be responsible for a real cure.

American Horror Story creator Ryan Murphy revealed that he managed to lock down Macaulay Culkin for a role on season 10 of the FX show by telling him that his character would have “crazy, erotic sex” with 71-year-old actress, Kathy Bates. While there is no set release date for the tenth season of AHS just yet, Ryan Murphy is doing everything he can to get the show’s loyal fans as well as new viewers amped up for what’s to come. While the showrunner was busy promoting his new Netflix series, Hollywood, he took the time to share a few exclusive details about AHS, including how he got Macaulay to sign on.

“I have always loved Macaulay Culkin’s work,” he said. “I loved everything that he’s done, I love the stuff he did in Home Alone. I also loved the older, more recent stuff that he did. And he hasn’t worked in a while.”

“So I have this very, very great, insane part,” he continued. “And I asked to speak to him on the phone and he said okay. [When] I cast, I never let people read things, usually,” . “I said, ‘Okay, here’s the pitch.’ And I told him the character and I told him he has crazy, erotic sex with Kathy Bates and does other things. And he paused and he goes, ‘This sounds like the role I was born to play.’ So, he signed up right then and there.”

While AHS has been known to push the boundaries on television, those are sure to be some exceptionally spicy scenes. Along with this new enthralling detail, Murphy has also given a few hints at the season 10 theme. He’s mentioned that it’s “a weather-dependent show” reliant on “a very specific moment.” AHS staple actress, Sarah Paulson, will have a “central role” in the story, and actors like Leslie Grossman, Billie Lourd, Evan Peters, Adina Porter, Lily Rabe, Angelica Ross, and Finn Wittrock will also be starring in the new season.

If you’ve done your daily scroll through Instagram, there’s a good chance you’ve come across some extra long photos. For some reason, users have been able to post pictures that are disproportionately sized and people are starting to take advantage of the glitch. While it would make for an interesting new feature, this appears to be an error.

For now, this only works on iOS but all you need is an extra-long photo — we’re talking very, very long — saved to your camera roll. You can even just create one from scratch. Then, when you go to upload your image to Insta, just select it in the photo picker. For some time, the app was failing to crop the pictures correctly.

Usually, as you’re surely aware, portrait photos will crop to approximately the size of your screen. Instagram seems to have fixed the issue, with some users now reporting that they are unable to upload their ultra-long pics. However, that didn’t stop some people from getting away with it.

Although the glitch seems to have been patched, photos that were uploaded during the period when it was just discovered are still showing up glitchy. We’ve included one at the bottom as an example (and so that you don’t need to aimlessly scroll down to get to the rest of the article.)
