Fresh off expressing her desire to “shake the table” in American politics, Cardi B understandably let a Trump-supporting waster of tweets really have it.

Last week, a video started to surface showing a man falling off a horse inside of a church. Because the internet has become a version of the Telephone Game, information got misconstrued, leading people to believe that the incident happened to Kanye West during his Sunday Service. This forced the rapper’s wife to set the record straight. Kim Kardashian took […]

Swagger Rite is most definitely a morning person. We’ve deduced this from the fact that it’s before noon at Toronto’s 4Sound Media Studios and he is almost literally bouncing off the walls. The local rapper is playing us some unreleased tracks and turning the fuck up in the process. We’re told that’s his natural state; dude is constantly […]

Kim Kardashian Instagrammed the story behind the vintage Cartier gold plaque necklace given to her by her husband, Kanye West.
