The 2021 GRAMMYs proved to be a night to remember for Megan Thee Stallion.

For, the Hot Girl Coach scored historic touchdowns by becoming the first female act to win Best Rap Performance, the first female Hip-Hop act to win Best Rap Song, and the only female Hip-Hop star (besides Lauryn Hill) to win Best New Artist.

Aptly, she was booked to hit the stage and she made sure to blaze it.

Greatness, of course, is facilitated by preparation. And now Meg is inviting the masses into her rehearsal process.

Christened Road to the GRAMMYs, the lengthy episode of Hottie World showcases the femcee and her creative director JaQuel Knight putting in work for what ended up being a stellar performance.

When not enjoying her latest singles, ‘Slow Clap’ and ‘Let Me Reintroduce Myself,’ Stateside fans of Gwen Stefani are still bumping hits from her introduction as a solo artist – namely ‘HollaBack Girl’ and ‘The Sweet Escape.’

Found aboard her freshman album (2004’s ‘Love. Angel. Music. Baby’) and sophomore solo LP (2006’s ‘Sweet Escape’) respectively, the tunes also remain her highest charting efforts on the Billboard Hot 100 yet – with ‘Hollaback’ holding still as her only #1 hit to date.

It’s only fitting their ongoing popularity be reflected via the Recording Industry Association of America’s (RIAA) logs – which were recently updated to reveal a slew of new Stefani certifications.

‘The Talk’ is turning down the volume for another week.

In the wake of Sharon Osbourne‘s shocking eruption during a race debate with Sheryl Underwood on March 10, bosses have taken the show off-air as they launched an investigation.

Originally set to return tomorrow (March 17), it’s been confirmed that no live shows will air until March 23.

As for why? It appears the growing discourse around Osbourne from former co-workers is proving difficult to ignore.
