Published on Reddit, the platform co-founded by fiancé Alexis Ohanian, the powerful piece sees the star thank the Williams matriarch while slamming those who’ve called her own body “manly.” She goes on to salute the women who – like her – have strong, muscular frames.

Even the most successful careers are plagued by challenges.

This is a reality that Pop empress Madonna is well-acquainted with.

One of her more public setbacks came with the release of her most recent album, 2015’s ‘Rebel Heart.’

To date, it’s only sold 240,000 copies — in total.

Internationally, the project fared even worse.

Now, the 59-year-old is opening about why…

After years of searching for a sound, Demi Lovato appears to have syrupy brand of soulful Pop showcased on new single ‘Sorry Not Sorry.’

Having peaked at #13 on the Billboard Hot thus far, the track looks poised for more success following her super-charged performance on ‘The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon.’

Though backed by 8 BV’s, four dancers, and a full band, Lovato’s oft-underrated voice took centre-stage and blew the roof off the building.

Raunchy. Racy. Ratchet.

This was clearly the memo Juicy J and Cardi B adhered to for their new jam ‘Kamasutra.’

Lifted from Juicy’s new mixtape ‘Highly Intoxicated,’ the sexually charged track sees the MC’s get braggadocios as they trade their filthiest fantasies.
