Future‘s career-long chart run (on the Hot 100 and Billboard 200 respectively) since his 2012 debut, ‘Pluto,’ has been out of this world to say the least.

On the Billboard 200 front the rapper’s seen all six of his studio efforts and both of his “retail mixtapes” debut in the tally’s top 10 upon their releases, five of them hitting #1.  In fact, to date the hitmaker (born Nayvadius DeMun Wilburn) remains the first and only act to top the chart over two consecutive weeks with two different albums.

And, while his placements on main album chart is his overall crowning glory, his mentions on the Billboard Hot 100 are certainly nothing to shake a stick at. Thanks to a plethora of guest starring appearances and a copious flow of releases as a lead act, Wilburn’s cemented his name in history books as the fifth-longest charting streak ever on the main singles chart thanks to the departure of the Kendrick Lamar-led single ‘Kings Dead’ (which features Future and Jay Rock) this week. Ending a 166 consecutive week run, only fellow rappers Drake, Lil Wayne, and Nicki Minaj, and singer Rihanna have spent longer spells on the Hot 100.

Tiffany Haddish is crowned ‘Comedy’s New Queen’ a-front of the latest issue of The Hollywood Reporter.

And with understandable reason. Several, in fact.

Since her breakout success in last summer’s surprise smash ‘Girls Trip,’ the star – who, at 38, is redefining the rules surrounding the age of “making it” – has been on a hot streak like no other.

In one year alone, she’s nabbed blockbuster deals with Netflix and HBO, hosted SNL, starred in a major Super Bowl commercial, released a book, and landed a slew of new roles – with ‘Night School’ co-starring Kevin Hart being one of her most anticipated.

And if that made for a compelling read, her interview feature is even more magnetic.

Doing away with the stuffy political correctness which pervades Hollywood, Haddish is refreshingly candid about…well…everything.

During the chat, she opens up about the business drawbacks of blowing up suddenly, love interests having ulterior motives, and rumored conflicts with ‘The Last OG’ co-star Tracy Morgan.

Perhaps most titillating is her long-awaited reveal of #WhoBitBeyonce. 

What are you waiting for? Pics and excerpts await after the jump…
