During the Vice Presidential debate between Kamala Harris and Mike Pence just a few weeks ago, there were some memes that were able to stick around on social media for a short time after. Of course, one of these was the fact that a fly landed on Mike Pence’s head and wouldn’t leave for a while. Pence never even noticed that the fly was there, and it ultimately turned into a massive joke on Twitter.

Now, the Mike Pence fly has been turned into a costume by the likes of Lizzo. As you can see in the Instagram posts below, Lizzo got dressed up in an elaborate costume that featured some wings and even some stickers that urged people to vote. Meanwhile, the artist posed in front of a green screen that featured an image of Pence with the fly on his head. Continue reading

Lil Nas X’s past as a Barb is something that he tried to hide in the past. For a while, he denied that he ran an incredibly popular Nicki Minaj stan account on Twitter. Only as of recent has he embraced his past by slightly poking fun at the previous account he used to hold.

For Halloween 2020, he decided to fully own up to it and give credit where credit is due. He dressed up as Nicki for Halloween, recreating the rap Queen’s outfit from the “Superbass” video shoot. The costume wasn’t simply a quick get-up that he put on, similar to his Cam’ron get up in 2019. He pulled out the prosthetics to match Nicki’s curves, captioning the photo, “NAS MARAJ.” Though Halloween isn’t done just yet, Lil Nas X’s dedication should have him at the top of plenty of “Best Costume” lists of 2020. He’s damn-near unidentifiable.  Continue reading

Over 230,000 Americans have died from COVID-19 as the pandemic surges forward, and it’s unclear how the United States will grab hold of the virus to keep cases from increasing. While some cities are still on lockdown under quarantine, others have opened back up to business as usual—so while one town is still “bored in the house,” another can be out at the club. Recently, T.I. celebrated the release of his album The L.I.B.R.A. where he was spotted in a packed club, and when questioned about if he was worried about contracting coronavirus, the rapper said he wasn’t overly concerned.

It came as a surprise when news broke back in 2006 that Spice Girl Mel B was pregnant with Eddie Murphy’s child. That same year, Murphy’s divorce from wife Nicole Murphy was finalized, so the news of the comedian expecting another child stunned the masses. Initially, Murphy denied knowing if he was truly the father of Angel Iris Murphy Brown, but a DNA test would later prove that Eddie is her father. 

The two parents have been in and out of court over the years in regards to Angel’s care. In 2009, it’s reported that Mel B. was awarded sole custody of the now-13-year-old, and Murphy was ordered to pay $25K per month in child support. According to Us Weekly, the actor was also deemed responsible for Angel’s education and health expenses, but Mel’s attorneys have recently claimed that Murphy hasn’t been keeping up with his end of the court order.
