Songz teased the new song on his social media last week with a short clip of the video: Chi Chi 2.4.19 pic.twitter.com/pjVwE6ieCB — Trey Songz (@TreySongz) February 2, 2019 The song is exactly what you would expect from these two R&B singers. It features an upbeat tempo with catchy lyrics. The video fits the theme of the song with scenes of women by a pool with a shirtless Trey Songz, Chris in a room full of women working the pole, and the two singing in front of gold lit backdrop.

Source: Wojtek Zagorski / Getty The polar vortex has been quite offensive these past couple of days. As of Thursday, it’s already taken over a number of states in the U.S. with the Midwest being hit the hardest. According to ABC 6 , some states in this area are experiencing temperatures in the negative 30s, and if you add wind chills to the mix, states like Illinois have experienced weather that feels like negative 57 degrees . According to The New York Times , eight weather-related deaths have already been recorded in the Midwest while the east coast isn’t that much safer with cities like New York experiencing single digit temperatures. But despite all this, folks will still find a way to capture the madness on camera. You can blame it on snowed-in boredom or you can blame it on plain curiosity. But whatever the reasoning, people are playing in the snow in the most bizarre and hilarious ways. First, a few people are putting their dogs on the line to test the weather. Some pet owners have been letting their canines out into the cold just to find out if they’d be thrilled for a walk. For many, the answer was a hard no. Just let Twitter user @IamNPaterson and her dog tell it… My dog when the #polarvortex arrives in #newjersey “No. Absolutely not.” @njdotcom pic.twitter.com/uUFKWu2BzV — Natalie Paterson (@IamNPaterson) January 30, 2019 Then, there were people who put their scientist hat on to discover the shocking effects of freezing temperatures. One Twitter user posted a video of herself soaking a T-shirt then sticking it outside in the cold. The results were a clothing item that could stand on its own after just a little over an hour outside. It’s no joke out here. One of the most viral videos, however, is a challenge that carried over from previous years. People have been boiling water and throwing it into the freezing air, creating a snow-making affect. Peep the slow motion spectacle below. According to Wired , because the water is so hot, it has enough energy to transition from liquid to gas quickly. When the hot water is projected into the cold air, a few things happen. First, the hot water is making water vapor thanks to evaporation. Second, the water is breaking into smaller blobs of water as it moves through the air. Both the evaporation and smaller blobs cause the water to cool off quickly. In addition to this, the cold air can’t hold a lot of water vapor (which is why the air is much drier in the winter), so the water vapor doesn’t stay in the air, but it condenses out. Viola. Instant snow. People across social media have been trying their luck at the phenomenon whether it be -10 degrees temperatures or -20 degrees outside. Whatever the case might be, make sure to stay warm and stay safe. The polar vortex will still disrespect you and your entire video.
Source: Larry Busacca/PW18 / Getty Beyoncé isn’t always vegan, but she’s known for going on a strict vegan diet before huge events like while training for her momentous Coachella performance in 2018. With this information in mind, it’s pretty safe to assume Bey feels her best when she’s vegan–so why wouldn’t she want all of her fans to feel their best, too? That along with the obvious fact that going vegan is best for all our little animal friends and the planet makes for a pretty good case, but a lot of people still don’t have the discipline or the desire to completely give up meat and all other animal products. Well, Beyoncé has a solution for that: because if anything can make us all go vegan, it’s the promise of some free Jay Z and Beyoncé tickets. Mrs. Knowles-Carter took to Instagram and posted a picture of her “Greenprint,” which is basically what she does in order to reduce her carbon emissions. For Bey, this means eating a plant-based breakfast and also doing “meatless Mondays”. Other options on the Greenprint website include eating plant-based meals at work, eating two plant-based meals a day, and eating plant-based meals only throughout the week. Like I mentioned before–Beyoncé promoting her healthy lifestyle is great…but what fans are most intrigued by is the caption for this instagram post. The star wrote, “Click the link in my bio for a chance to win tickets to any JAY and/or my shows for life.” You read that right. Free tickets to any Beyoncé and/or Jay-Z concert FOR. LIFE. Just for eating your fruits and veggies. Yeah, we can manage that. As you might imagine, just like any time something happens with Bey, fans were absolutely freaking out over this opportunity. Yes, they’re willing to go vegan for Beyonc é and yes, the reactions were absolutely hilarious. holdon…. Beyoncé offering lifetime tickets to all her shows if we win a contest for going vegan? bitch hand me some lettuce. — ZÉ TAYLOR (@FATHERBONNET) January 31, 2019 “b**ch hand me some lettuce” just might be the best quote of 2019. Meat???

If Beyoncé & JAY-Z thinks i’m gonna eat their vegan shit for free tickets, they absolutely right. pic.twitter.com/BHf6REBKKU — BTK (@BTKTHERAPPER) January 30, 2019 Wait…Beyoncé giving out free tickets for life for going vegan?! pic.twitter.com/7CpzxW3nTY — Raincloud Anderson (@unprECEded) January 31, 2019 Me eating meat after I entered the contest to win Beyoncé concert tickets for life for being vegan pic.twitter.com/95bFeLQAws — t (@tayywurrr) January 31, 2019 Well…listen. We all want free tickets, okay? But sometimes we also wanna keep eating things other than lettuce. But some fans are dedicated enough to get their whole family in on it. Even the bed bugs. ALL my family are going vegan. my momma, my dog. even my bed bugs PERIOD. we all seeing Aunt Beyoncé https://t.co/rQr7LWFQsP — ora (@needyora) January 31, 2019 And other fans are just wheeling and dealing to get what they really want. beyoncé wont leave us alone about being vegan… she been buggin for years the same way we’ve been begging for the formation world tour. so why don’t we make a deal. you give us the formation world tour dvd, we’ll do your vegan challenge @beyonce pic.twitter.com/TaNXfT6prT — reney (@YonceMadeMeDoIt) January 31, 2019 So when the statistics come out in a few years and show a rise in veganism in 2019, we all know what happened. Thanks, Beyonc é.

The track that is the subject of the dispute is “Fuck Dat N***a” by the City Girls off Quality Control’s compilation album Quality Control: Control the Streets Volume 1 . Khia alleges she has not received any money for songs use of her 2002 hit raunchy record “My Neck, My Back (Lick It).” In a video shared by The Shaderoom Khia let Pee and the City Girls have it. “Pee…. You know I’m mad at you because…you let those dirty-ass City Girls sample my shit, and you didn’t pay me, while you act like you got so much motherfucking money.” Thomas responded to Khia’s claims on his Instagram account by bringing the receipts. In a letter addressed to the QC boss it shows the label, in fact, did pay to use the track: $10,000 for the masters owned by E1 Records, $6,000 to copyright and administration company Third Side; and $4,000 to Memory Lane a publishing company. It would appear someone is lying and it doesn’t look like it’s Pee. Khia might have to do some more investigating to find her missing coins. — Photo: Prince Williams / Getty

Frequently spotted at the department store, the superstar seems to love a good discount purchase as much as any of us. The mom of three was seen checking out the baby care aisle at a Target in the Westwood neighborhood of Los Angeles earlier this week. According to the fan account that captured the photos, Bey was actually shopping on her daughter Blue Ivy Carter ‘s birthday.

Everyday people weren’t the only ones excited to see Bey in the building—celebrity Target vendor Chrissy Teigen caught wind that the queen was running some errands at the department store and plugged her line of knives. “Beyonce you are so silly, I can just send you my new knives!,” she wrote .
