Vanity Fair Finally Nails Their Hollywood Issue Cover We’ve been dragging Vanity Fair for YEARS over their lack of inclusion on the covers of their Hollywood Issue, so it’s only right we applaud them as they’ve really nailed it with this year’s cover stars — beginning with Chadwick Boseman who is smack dab on the front page, not tucked into the fold unlike so many black actors before him. Boseman shares the front cover with Saoirse Ronan and Timothée Chalamet, two of today’s most acclaimed young stars. The inside cover features Nicholas Hoult, ‘Roma’ breakout star Yalitza Aparicio, Rami Malek and the QUEEN herself Regina King… but the diversity continues with John David Washington, Tessa Thompson and Henry Golding joined by Elizabeth Debicki. Interestingly enough, the cover also mentions inside features like an oral history of the original Hollywood Issue — which did include Angela Bassett, and a celebration of Cicely Tyson by Viola Davis and Annie Leibovitz. So yeah. Vanity Fair you get KUDOS! Keep up the excellent work. John David Washington even acknowledges the power of his presence in the issue saying, “I realized it’s not about me,” says John David Washington—photographed here with Tessa Thompson—about being on the cover of V.F.’s Hollywood Issue. “It’s about somebody who looks like me in Kansas or North Carolina, Middle America or in the South, who sees a cover like this and will be inspired to change their environment.” Hit the flip for more great moments from the magazine

Source: Bennett Raglin/Getty Images For Billboard / Getty Congratulations! Lira Galore Confirms Her Pregnancy Lira Galore is confirming what’s been suspected for weeks; she’s pregnant with Pierre “Pee” Thomas’ baby. The model took to Instagram on Christmas morning to share a video of herself wearing a sparkling pink gown and cradling her burgeoning baby bump. According to Lira, her baby girl was made out of love and she waited to make the announcement to “protect the energy” surrounding her seed. She also added that she can’t wait to meet her “mini-me’ and she’s excited to finally have unconditional love. “I chose to keep you a secret because I had to protect the energy I was exposing you to,” wrote Lira. “On this day Christmas 2018 I’m ready to tell everyone about you bc this is THE greatest gift. Even though Daddy & I planned you & made you out of love, When I first learned that you were really coming I still was unsure & scared about bringing you into the horrors of this world. I questioned myself on if I’d be good enough for the responsibility of caring for one of God’s angels ..scared I wouldn’t AT ALL measure up to the mom my mother was to me . I mean, What big shoes to fill I cried to her about you & she ensured me that she wasn’t worried AT ALL about me & that I’d be the Best mommy! I can’t wait to love you! bc I have so much of it to give. I finally have something to call my own & that will love me unconditionally. Im so anxious & antsy to meet you. Im obsessed with you, i dream about you, I listen to your heartbeat everyday, You are so special to me already. Please Hurry up, come early if you want .. sincerely, Mommy . See you soon ! #22Weeks #MiniMe Before Lira made her official announcement, she publically slammed her baby’s father/fiance Pee who confirmed that he’s expecting a child with model Kaylar Wil. According to Lira, she knew about Kaylar’s pregnancy but her Migos manager boo made his paternity public out of spite. “Now y’all know I’m an unproblematic queen .. & I be chillin,” wrote Lira on her IG stories. “Y’all know ion do the internet BS …however …We both knew she’s been pregnant & you never ‘publically acknowledged the fact.’ You took your ring like you do EVERYTIME you throw a temper tantrum. I haven’t spoken to you for over 4 days & you in ya feelings & wanna be petty bc I RT’d a fake quotable page.” Source: David Livingston / Getty Not only that, she claimed that Pee cheated on her multiple times and bullied her by giving and taking away gifts to give to other women. “Now I’ve sat back since I started f****g w you in [July] & let you disrespect me publically, let those around you disrespect me, from the cheating, the gaslighting, taking my stuff away when u get mad giving it to the hoes u f***g on,” wrote Lira. “I’m tired of being bullied & disrespected when I’ve been nothing but nice to you & respected those around you,” she added. “I never asked for none of the money, cars, bags ECT … These are all things you came at me with! I opened my heart up to accepting your kids & your extended family so what u won’t do is continue to treat me like you haven’t cried tears to me about how thankful u are to have me & for trying to help you work on you & the demons & issues you are battling wishing yourself.” The Quality Control Music CEO then dropped a video of Lira clearly getting an ultrasound—but Lira still denied that she was expecting. Despite the messiness surrounding this, we wish Lira a safe and happy pregnancy. No one deserves to be bullied and she’s clearly excited about her journey into motherhood.
Source: Kevin Mazur / Getty California Honors President Obama With A Freeway Tribute Sometimes a reminder that life was once so much simpler is necessary, and what better way to take a walk–or rather, a drive–down memory lane than with a freeway named after President Obama ? Now, residents of Los Angeles can get that reminder during their daily commute; Signs honoring Barack Obama were installed on a stretch of the 134 Freeway this week. The route from State Route 2 in Glendale to Interstate 210 in Pasadena was completed this week, according to reports from USA Today , after being signed into law back in September 2017. Locals are known to love 44, but the placement is also a tribute to the period of time in Obama’s youth when he attended college at Occidental College in Eagle Rock from 1979 to 1981 and later lived in Pasadena. Barack Obama has been out of office for two years now, so it’s only right that he starts getting a few things named in his honor. Back in August, the city of Los Angeles also announced plans to rename Rodeo Road to Obama Boulevard. LA is really going all out here, huh? It’s official: our City Council has voted to rename Rodeo Road to Obama Boulevard! We’re thrilled that Angelenos and visitors will forever be reminded of the legacy of President @BarackObama when traveling across L.A. pic.twitter.com/gnVNgBgndn — Mayor Eric Garcetti (@MayorOfLA) August 29, 2018 The more reminders of Obama, the better.
