Daniel Kaluuya took center stage on Saturday Night Live and shone in earnest.

The Golden Globes winner did not hold back right from the onset.

He delivered a hilarious opening monologue, which saw him wax honest on racism, his glitch-laden Globes speech, and Meghan and Harry’s Oprah interview.

Beyond that, Kaluuya thrilled in a series of skits throughout the latest installment of the NBC hit.

His appearance comes ahead of the 2021 Oscars, where the British-Ugandan star is nominated for Best Supporting Actor for his performance as Civil Rights icon Fred Hampton in the critically-acclaimed ‘Judas & The Black Messiah.’

Love her or loathe her, one thing that can’t be knocked is Iggy Azalea‘s grand hustle.

Despite virtual absence from radio since 2016, the now-independent diva – thanks to undeniable bops and high quality music videos – continued to be one of the most consistent female rappers in the history of the genre.

That consistency may translate to praise and adoration from her dedicated fan base, affectionately called #Azaleans, but it hasn’t always morphed into commercial acclaim – a truth Azalea took to Twitter over the weekend to suggest isn’t just happenstance.

No stranger to seeing the words “first” and “only” associated with many of his stats, making Billboard history is far from an uncommon occurrence for Pop pinup Justin Bieber.

All roads lead to April 9 for Taylor Swift, who will be releasing the “new” version of her sophomore album ‘Fearless.’

As reported, the Pop force is re-vocalizing much of her catalogue after her original masters were sold by her former label – the fall-out of which we have covered extensively on That Grape Juice. 

In a bid to claw back agency over her music, Swift has embarked on the journey of recording the material anew.

With ‘Fearless’ first up, the singer has unveiled the lengthy tracklist featuring a number of previously unheard “From The Vault” cuts – which themselves feature guests such as Maren Morris and Keith Urban.

After entering a “not guilty” plea, Shah has finally broken her silence on the situation.
