Feelin’ Myself’ maestra Nicki Minaj was feeling shady on social media earlier today when she went head-to-head in a Twitter tussle with ‘Teen Mom OG’ star

Criticizing the reality starlet’s relationship with her mother on the show, the rapstress ignited a firestorm of retweets until the line caught Abraham’s attention.

Needless to say, Nick’s comments weren’t exactly taken in stride.

Lady Gaga continues to do-away with the wacky ensembles and is instead embracing the more demure.

Mother Monster arrived at the Golden Globes 2016 moments ago with actor fiance Taylor Kinney and the pair served all sorts of vintage Hollywood.

The singer is up for Best Performance by an Actress in a Miniseries or Motion Picture Made for Television (a mouthful we know) for her role in ‘American Horror Story: Hotel.’

Time (a very short amount at that) will tell if she scoops the honor.

For now, though, check out more pics of the ‘Applause’ belter below…

Pop minx Katy Perry has made her mark in the music arena, but today showed up and showed out at the Golden Globes 2016.

Joining a number of artists at the 73rd annual extravaganza (including Jennifer Lopez and Lady Gaga), Perry dazzled in playful pink as she arrived on the renown red carpet.

The appearance at the Ricky Gervais hosted special is one of few the ‘Dark Horse’ belter has made since rocking the Super Bowl last year. Could a new album be nigh? Watch this space.

Pending a definitive answer, more snaps await after the jump…

Ciara has made quite the career for herself in the Urban arena thanks to a scintillating array of R&B bops.

However, in a bid to diversify her discography, the sultry songstress has teamed with Dance maestro R3hab for new song ‘Get Up.’

Set for formal release later this month, the track sees Super Ci take on vocal duties while the producer/DJ delivers with the pulsating production.

This week’s From The Vault selection comes courtesy of Cassie and her infamous 106 & Park performance of single ‘Me & U.’

Extracted from her eponymous first album, “Me & U’ was the model’s debut effort. Released in 2005, the Ryan Leslie production was a sleeper-hit peaking at #3 on the Hot 100 and #1 on the Hip-Hop/R&B charts in the US in 2006. It hit #6 in the United Kingdom the following year.

Beyond club play, it was the track’s high-octane video (which drew comparisons to Janet Jackson’s ‘Pleasure Principle’) that catapulted the release to the upper echelon of the charts.

Yet, could Cassie replicate the fierceness on-stage?

Unfortunately for the Bad Boy belle, the answer was an emphatic, embarrassing, and resounding “NO!”

Taking to the stage of BET’s then-flagship show, the beauty gave the ugliest of performances – characterized and immortalized by stiff, lazy, and laxed stage presence and vocals that just did not show up. Many wondered if she was asleep.

From the attempted acapella intro to the look of “even I know this is a mess” plastered on her pretty face , it was all a dismal disaster and ultimately spelled the end of whatever quest she had to be taken seriously. Her music career, as the last decade has shown, has never quite recovered.

It’s just her luck that this has happened back in 2006, because in the current viral age (see: Instagram, Facebook, memes and the like) her career in the broader sense (modelling included) is unlikely to have recovered.

Still, by way of her relationship with Diddy and a number of fashion focussed campaigns, she remains one of the most desirable ladies in the spotlight. Not a bad consolation prize.
