As Halle Berry gears up for the November 24 premiere of her new Netflix film, ‘Bruised’ (in which she also makes her directorial debut), the Academy Award winner’s ego may have suffered a bruise after she was unceremoniously slammed for crowning Cardi B the ‘Queen of Hip Hop.’

Cardi – who leads the charge for the movie’s all-female soundtrack (which arrives on digital shelves November 19) – earned big praise from Berry at the flick’s recent premiere event.

“I would like to say thank you today to Cardi B,” the 55-year-old movie star said. “She was my partner in crime. Of course, she’s the queen of hip hop. I reached out to Cardi and we paired and we created… a soundtrack and an album that is not only historic, but I think is a beautiful backdrop for this story.”

Once diehard fans of other female Rap stars caught wind of Halle’s comments, they flooded her social media handles with criticism.

Look inside to see how she responded to the hoopla.

‘Va Va Voom’ hitmaker Nicki Minaj zoomed to the top of headlines Monday (September 13) when she took to Twitter to indicate she was unvaccinated and would not be participating in events that required attendees be vaccinated until she can ‘do more research’ – a stance that’s ignited a firestorm of controversy and conversation.

While it should be clear the GRAMMY nominee never expressly indicated she was anti-vax (and even encouraged her beloved fan base, #Barbz, to continue wearing masks), her commentary – which included anecdotal references to vaccine side effects – has earned thumbs down from critics and fellow celebrities including British Prime Minister Boris Johnson, Piers Morgan, Joy Reid, Stephen Colbert, Jimmy Kimmel, Meghan McCain, and others (as we previously reported).

One of the latest to weigh in on Minaj’s vaccine rant was Dr. Anthony Fauci – America’s leading epidemiologist. Look inside to see what he said:
