Nonetheless, we digress.

With social media weighing in on Kanye West’s recent dramas, Banks joined in. And quickly took a left to share an “interesting” story about her time working on a Rihanna album. A process she says literally saw her starved by the Bajan belle.

Tiffany Haddish is learning the hard way about the hoopla that can arise due to the divulgence of secrets.

With Twitter collectively fanning itself over the heat generated from the star’s uncovered snaps inside the mag’s pages, we’re sure some will be reaching for ice once they cop a gander at the behind-the-scenes footage of the shoot’s creation.

In a realm where Cher, Madonna, Jennifer Lopez, Janet Jackson, Mariah Carey, and more major musical maestras over 40 are redefining what it means to be an “aging pop star,” Gwen Stefani suggests her age is the reason her career is nearing the “end of its journey.”

The ‘Hollaback Girl’ hitmaker – whose last studio album, ‘This Is What the Truth Feels Like,’ debuted at #1 on the Billboard 200 in 2016 (despite its singles’ lack of impact on the Hot 100) – is gearing up for a highly anticipated Vegas residency at the Zappos Theater at the Planet Hollywood Resort set for kick off next month (click here to read more about that). Ahead of the show’s debut, Stefani took to press to not only dish on the endeavor but also talk about its perfect timing due to her duties of being a mom and…umm…her age bringing her career to a close.
