Because every day is a photo shoot.” Meanwhile, Kim, who has two children with the divisive musician - a three-year-old daughter called North and a nine-month old son called Saint - thinks Kanye is her “best stylist”. She told Harper's BAZAAR magazine: “I swear he sees every

News broke today that  Jennifer  Lopez  has landed a big role in an upcoming  HBO  films production,  The Cocaine Godmother ,   in which she will play one of the most powerful cartel leaders ever,  Griselda Blanco . Lopez admitted she has long had a fascination with Blanco, who did her part to revolutionize the cocaine trade in the US during the 70’s and 80’s. “ I’ve been fascinated by the life of this corrupt and complicated woman for many years ,” Lopez said “ The idea of teaming with HBO felt like the perfect fit for finally bringing Griselda’s story to life .” While J. Lo definitely puts this project on the fast track, some don’t quite see her as right for the role and have taken to Twitter to express their confusion over the casting news:

For his last and final night  performing at Madison Square Garden, Drake decided to go “all the way up” and bring Fat Joe and J. Cole on stage. Throughout his  Summer Sixteen Tour  with Future, which launched in late July, Drake has been tapping rappers and artists left and right to make things even more memorable. Rihanna made an appearance during his stop in Toronto (which doubled as OVO Fest) and Kanye West showed up in Chicago. Drake had nothing but nice things to say about Cole, calling him “one of the smartest, greatest, most legendary artists of our generation.” Cole performed his hit single “No Role Modelz” and “A Tale Of 2 Citiez” off his album  2014 Forest Hills Drive.  He also performed a song on which he’s featured, Jeremih’s “Planez” (via  XXL ). While closing out the show, Drake continued addressing the rumors that he’s beefing with Eminem.  A New York radio DJ began those rumors  (and helped fuel the beef between Meek Mill and Drake last summer), and Drake seems t

Oh my god, are we in for the ultimate rap battle?! A rumor got started on Aug. 3 that Drake and Eminem were going to go head-to-head, and now it’s completely spiraled out of control, with fans on Twitter losing their minds! See the most hilarious tweets, right here. Wait, wait, wait, are Drake and Eminem having some major beef?! There’s been no signs of a problem between these two huge rappers, but on Aug. 3, radio DJ Ebro revealed that something might be brewing between them. Small-time rapper Joe Budden has been beefing with Drake for months now, ever since Drake clapped back when Joe criticized his album Views during an appearance on a podcast. The beef trended on Twitter every so often, but since Joe is nowhere near as famous as Drake, nothing really came of it. However, Joe is signed to Eminem’s label, which is why Ebro says he’s coming for Drake . “I told Drake that I heard the rumor was Eminem was going to gear up to come after him,” Ebro revealed on Hot 97’s morning show. “

So, exactly, how would the reality star, queen of social media, Kanye West wife, and mom of two define feminism? "I love to support other women, but I'm not the free-the-nipple type girl. ... Just, like, no hate. That's my thing," she said. "I don't have to push my views on other people; if that's not you, it's okay. Elisa Camahort, co-founder of the annual confab, led the discussion and asked Kardashian West why she likes to post nude photos of herself on social media. "Because I feel good about myself!" she replied. "I mean after you have a kid, now if you have two kids, there is a feeling that. ... I mean I lost 70 pounds!" "I know the hate's out there. I'm not looking at t
