2019 just hasn’t been Kevin Hart‘s year.

As if being ousted as the Academy Awards host for resurfaced homophobic tweets wasn’t enough, the funnyman was later unceremoniously slammed for being insensitive to the LGBTQ community thanks to his commentary surrounding rapper Lil Nas X‘s coming out (click here to read).  The latter backlash ensued while the 40-year-old was recuperating from injuries he sustained from a heavily reported car accident.

Katy Perry fans, affectionately called #KatyCats, are still a-chatter after the unveiling of the music video for ‘Small Talk’ – the latest single from the singer’s yet-titled sixth studio album.

Unleashed Friday (August 30), the clip – directed by Tanu Muino – sees the 34-year-old and her beloved pooch, Nugget Perry, take to the dog show to compete for ‘best in show.’  And, while she was deemed a winner in the visual, real-time Spotify and iTunes charts reveal the tune is lagging behind the real-world competition as it is completely absent from both tallies despite the support of the critically acclaimed video (which has amassed 11 million views on Youtube to date).

Hoping to boost interest in the Charlie Puth-produced project, which has peaked at #81 on the Billboard Hot 100 as of the chart’s latest refresh, Katy’s inviting viewers into yet another behind the scenes look at the clip’s creation.

The lyrics from Cardi B‘s sophomore chart-topper, ‘I Like It,’ boast an inventory of items and situations that earn a “thumbs up” from the New York-born rapstress.  Now, for the umpteenth time, she can add “making history” to that list.

When the Bad Bunny & J. Balvin-assisted cut topped the Billboard Hot 100 last year Cardi’s name was scribbled in history books for not only becoming the first female rapper to see her second song reach the chart’s summit, but also the first and only artist this decade to launch two songs to the top from a debut album.  Later, the tune made history again for having the longest run in the Hot 100 of any female rap songs (51 weeks total).

While the aforementioned are just three of many honors the J. White Did It-produced number collected during its prime, this week brought with it news it’s added one more.  Details inside:

That’s what bullies do! Evelyn knows how to pick her victims. She might say little slick ish about OG, but she won’t step to her! That’s the same reason why she apologized to Jen’s friend last week. She knew Dominque would’ve whipped her ass! #BBWLA #basketballwives
