Posted on September 13, 2018 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

A model walks the runway for the Savage X Fenty Fall/Winter 2018 fashion show during NYFW at the Brooklyn Navy Yard on September 12, 2018 in Brooklyn, NY. Slick Woods Goes Into Labor After Savage x Fenty Runway Show Slick Woods’ supermodel seed is apparently itching to make a NYFW debut! According to TMZ , the 22-year-old model’s labor commenced shortly after she strutted the Savage x Fenty runway in pasties and a cutout teddy with a pair of sexy thigh-highs, her baby bump on full display. Sources say that just as she finished her turn on the catwalk and got backstage, Slick realized her baby boy was on the way. Paramedics were called to the scene, and helped her at the venue before transporting her to a nearby hospital to finish bringing her baby into the world. No word yet on if her son, set to be named Saphir, is here quite yet. He’s bound to be a looker though, as his father is fellow model Adonis Bosso . Congratulations to Slick! She seems very excited about becoming a mother, and killed runways until the VERY LAST MOMENT she could while preggo. Getty

Source: Kevin Mazur / Getty On Wednesday night in the Brooklyn Navy Yard, Rihanna’s badassness descended in lingerie form for the Savage x Fenty show. #TeamBeautiful was backstage before the show and in the center of all the action. Backstage at a BadGalRiRi approved production is entirely different from any other NYFW backstage experience (maybe with the exception of Harlem’s Fashion Row ). For a lack of a better word, it was Black AF, while being inclusive AF. So much stood out! Here’s everything that you’d want to know about the backstage scene.

IG Trippin’: Here’s Proof That Beyoncé Gets Caught Slippin’ Sometimes Too

Posted on August 4, 2018 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Source: James Devaney / Getty We all know that Beyoncé loves her privacy and incognito-ness. So much so that we rarely hear her speak these days, unless she’s tearing the stage up. All of her content on Instagram are just epic photos — no videos or IG stories. One woman changed that by tricking the Queen into thinking she was posing for a pic, when it was actually a video.   Bey looked a little shook toward the end, like “I’m already on camera, so I might as well continue.     So if you ever have to sign a non-disclosure just to take a photo with Beyoncé, you probably have this lady to thank. via GIPHY

Posted on July 26, 2018 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Source: Jamie McCarthy / Getty Tekashi 69 ‘s name seems to pop up wherever there’s trouble.   Vic Mensa recently stated in an interview with LA’s REAL 92.3 that 69 stole his whole sound from Chicago Drill rap…   And Tekashi’s number one supporter, DJ Akademiks decided to chime in. Vic then went on to invite the rainbow haired Brooklyn rapper to “see me with the hands” and threatened Ak saying, “it’s on sight when I see you.”   It didn’t take long for Tekashi to chime in with the most disrespectful comment ever.   But why all the hostility between the two emcees and the Internet personality?   Hit the flip to see the beef breakdown. via GIPHY
