Issa Rae Throwing Virtual Block Party For "Insecure" Season 4 Premiere


Issa Rae is pulling out all the stops for the Season 4 premiere of “Insecure” with a virtual block party on IG live and Twitter to celebrate.

Issa Rae is making sure the fourth season of her hit show, Insecure, starts off right by throwing a virtual block party to celebrate the season premiere. The creator and star of the HBO series announced the lineup of exciting virtual events all taking place tonight (April 12th) Instagram live and Twitter. To kick off the festivities, Issa and the cast of Insecure will be conducting a Q&A with fans at 8:00pm EST/5:00pm PST  livestream on the show’s official Instagram account. This will be followed by a DJ set from Atlanta native, Zaytona, at 9:00pm EST/6:00pm PST on the same platform. The watch party will then officially commence at 10:00pm EST/7:00pm PST, so be sure to live tweet your reactions to the premiere on Twitter. Finally, the evening will finish with a special live performance on IG live featuring a surprise musical guest.

“You are officially invited to the @insecurehbo S4 Virtual Block Party on Sunday,” Issa wrote on Instagram along with the official schedule. “Come thru! #InsecureHBO.” The “virtual block party” concept is actually a reference to a major plot point of the fourth season of Insecure that was teased in the official trailer. Fictional Issa is shown throwing a real block party in the show to celebrate L.A culture and black-owned businesses. Watch the official Insecure Season 4 trailer below to get psyched for the virtual block party tonight:

Nicki Minaj Drops Fire Freestyle On "RuPaul’s Drag Race"

Nicki Minaj dropped some heat while serving as a guest judge on the season 12 premiere of "RuPaul's DragRace"

Nicki Minaj took her duties on the judging panel over at RuPaul's Drag Race very seriously, but the seasoned MC still took the time to bless us with a dope freestyle during the show's season 12 premiere. It was announced last month that the Queen would be making an appearance as a guest judge on the first episode of the iconic drag competition series' return, and on Friday night, we finally got to see her fulfill this role. It's clear that Nicki had a total blast evaluating the drag queens' performances, and she even got to give a little performance of her own. At one point during her judging gig, Nicki pulled up her Notes app and spit a pre-written freestyle to demonstrate for the girls the true meaning of "bars."

"First, I'm that b*tch, Imma only say it one time," Nicki began. "I body all these b*tches with just one rhyme/Chew 'em up, spit 'em out like it's gum time/Chinese bangs, ponytail, and a bun time/Fat ass, and my titties stay perky/Badass but I'm still a little quirky/American Express in my birky/If he got a real big D he can hurt me."

"Real rap we don't f*ck with facades," she continued. "Came from nothin' but I beat the odds/Pretty queen tings wit' young Nicki Minaj." To conclude her impressive run, Nicki shouted out her fellow judges surrounding her. "Queen RuPaul, Carson, and Michelle Visage." Let them know, Nicki!
