Tiffany Haddish is absolutely the name on everyone’s lips.

As if prepping to promote her new film with Kevin Hart, the forthcoming ‘Night School’ (click here to watch the trailer) and learning her TBS sitcom, ‘The Last O.G.,‘ had earned a second season wasn’t enough good news for the comedienne, now she’s rolling out to red carpet to host the 2018 MTV Movie Awards.

When quizzed on what to expect from her hosting skills, Haddish took to press to say:

“I feel very cute and sexy and vibrant and being the first woman to ever host the MTV Movie & TV Awards, it’s a little bit of pressure but it’s going to be a lot of fun,” she said. “…I’m trying to represent everybody in the whole wide world,” she mused. “I’m just going to be myself and I mean, I got a lot of great jokes and a lot of good commercials.”

#Animals are undoubtedly counting down the minutes, days, and weeks before ‘Tik Tok’ singer Kesha hits the road on her joint tour with rapper Macklemore (click here for dates).  Kicking off June 6 in Phoenix, the 30-city venture will touch every corner of the United States before wrapping up in Tampa in early August.

Ahead of the trek’s launch, the singer’s taking to press – namely the most recent issue of ‘Cosmopolitan’ magazine –  to build anticipation.  Discussing her time with her Grammy-winning tourmate and what prospective concertgoers should expect from the outing, the sitdown with the lifestyle mag also took a dark turn down memory lane.

Amidst her legal battle with former producer and mentor, Dr. Luke, Kesh talked extensively about gaining her independence from the allegedly abusive hitmaker and overcoming body issues (some of which were brought on by Luke for reportedly calling her a “fat ass refrigerator”).

Before the mag hits newsstands on May 8th, you can see highlights from her candid interview inside:

‘Heartless’ hitmaker Kanye West was already atop Black Twitter’s ‘canceled list’ for declaring his support for President Donald Trump (read more on that here), but his name went from penciled in the top spot to cemented just hours ago when he took to TMZ to suggest that ‘400 years of slavery’ was a choice (click here to read more on that).

Fans of the rapstress have obviously pointed the finger at the absence of promotional music videos to assist their respective Billboard buoyancy, a concern the Grammy nominee is looking to remedy quickly.

Taking to social media today to confirm, the Harajuku Barbie shed light on the due date of the ‘Chun’ and ‘Tingz’ videos.  Look inside to see when you can expect the clips in full:
