Most Italian luxury footwear brands can be associated with elegance and grace. Giuseppe Zanotti also adds a healthy dose of magic to his designs. His exquisite footwear brings motifs from fantasies and myths to life, from delicate petals to deadly beasts.

Way before Sean ‘P Diddy’ Combs got arrested and turned into an estranged rapper from his reputation as a hip-hop mogul, he and Kanye West had shared moments of brotherly bond with each other. From inspiring one another’s career over the years, Combs had even influenced West regarding his life choices.

Well, according to Kanye West’s speech at the 2022 BET Awards, the rapper hinted at how P Diddy had inspired his “wife choices” while referring to Combs as his idol. Claiming that the estranged artist had influenced his music career, West admitted that Diddy was involved in his marriage to Kim Kardashian.

Ever since the beginning of their respective careers, P Diddy and Kanye West have been the best of pals in the music industry.

While Kourtney Kardashian is the shortest Kardashian, Kim’s height is believed to be around 5ft 2 (157.5 cm). Known for her massive shoe closet, Kim Kardashian founded ShoeDazzle in 2009.

For years, Kanye West and Sean “Diddy” Combs were friends. Both men spoke highly of one another’s careers, and have shared the ways in which they have inspired one another. West once said that Combs influenced far more than just his career. He hinted that Combs had something to do with his marriage to Kim Kardashian.

At the 2022 BET Awards, West presented Combs with the Lifetime Achievement Award. West referred to Combs as his idol.

“I just need to meet this man,” West said when speaking about listening to Combs’ music (per the Daily Mail). “This is my favorite artist.”

He said he idolized West.

“You see I’m saying favorite artist — everything, not specifically production, the trip,” West said. “Back then there was so many rules to hip-hop, and he broke all of them.”

How does such a genre-defying film like Jacques Audiard’s transgender Mexican cartel musical Emilia Pérez come into being? In this case, it went through a uniquely adventurous development process.

The acclaimed Netflix film, which was loosely inspired by a chapter in Boris Razon’s 2018 novel Écoute, originally began as two distinct projects, both written by Audiard and titled Emilia Pérez: an opera libretto to be performed for the stage and a gritty crime movie the director envisioned shooting on location in Mexico.

“It took a lot of time for the two projects to merge into one, to make Emilia Pérez,” says Paul Guilhaume, the French cinematographer who shot Emilia Pérez and is considered an Oscar frontrunner for his work on the film. “I didn’t even know myself which one I would be shooting — both, or was it one or the other?” Guilhaume recalls of the early days...

Kim Kardashian is known to shock fans with her looks however, this time, she’s shocking fans with her mind. Apparently, her Iq is higher than Einstein’s and some are struggling to believe that. Keep reading for all of the details.

Kim Kardashian’s High Iq

In a new Reddit post, fans are discussing something rather shocking – Kim Kardashian’s Iq. Apparently, one fan did a search online and found out that Kim’s Iq is a whopping 165. That’s five points higher than Eistein’s Iq of 160. The Op took to the thread to share a screenshot of their findings.

Amy Adams said this week she would love to play Taylor Swift’s publicist Tree Paine, whom fans have long pointed out could be Adams’ long-lost sister (or at least, an impressive doppelgänger).

“That would be amazing,” Adams said during an appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon. “That would be so fun. I mean… if it got me closer to Taylor, then that would be fun.”

Adams made the comments in response to Fallon sharing a social media post from Hunter Harris asserting that Adams “would win an Oscar” for her portrayal of Paine.

Paine appeared in Swift’s autobiographical Netflix documentary, Miss Americana, and is known for aiding the singer during many high-profile moments of her career, including conflicts with Kanye West, the sexual assault trial against David Mueller and a dispute with Scooter Braun over ownership of Swift’s masters. The singer is Paine’s only client.

[Warning: The below contains Major spoilers for the Wednesday, December 4 episode of Jeopardy!] Jeopardy!’s bolo-tie-boasting champ Stevie Ruiz clinched his second win on Wednesday — thanks partly to another surprising wager. But unlike his savvy $413 Final Jeopardy bet that won him his first game, an opponent’s strategically questionable move took her out of the running. Ruiz, an assistant front office manager from Montauk, New York, entered with one-day winnings of $17,987 off his well-played conservative wager in the previous match. He faced Gloria Nastas, a retired healthcare policy analyst from Troy, Michigan, and Kimberley Debus, a Unitarian Universalist minister from Takoma Park, Maryland. Ken Jennings reminded the players we’d seen a carousel of one-day champs recently, setting the stage for another potential upset. In the Jeopardy! round, Ruiz pulled ahead, bolstered by a Yeezus-era Kanye West Daily Double, he had $7,600. Debus, who scored laughs with a peppy story about an Ethel Merman impersonation, held $3,000, ...

Swift’s success was powered by her blockbuster album “The Tortured Poets Department,” which spent 15 weeks on top of the Billboard 200 albums chart. That made it the longest-running chart-topper of her career. So it’s no surprise that “Tortured Poets” was also Spotify’s No. 1 global album. Swift actually achieved three of the top 10 streaming albums, with “1989 (Taylor’s Version)” coming in at No. 6 and “Lover” following at No. 8. Notably, the top...

Ye (fka Kanye West) has apparently left more than 10 producers who worked on his albums Vultures 1 and Vultures 2 hung out to dry. According to a Billboard report, several attorneys for those collaborators have teamed up in an effort to get their clients paid.

Vultures 1, the first of West’s collaborative albums with Ty Dolla $ign, has moved 817,000 album equivalent units since dropping in February, but nearly a dozen producers have been unable to secure signed agreements for their work on the album. As a result, they’re missing out on collecting fees or potential producer royalties and publishing income. Billboard reports several Vultures 2 producers are in the same boat.

“We have clients who’ve produced music on the Vultures album(s) and have still not been paid for their services even though both albums have been released,” music attorney Bob Celestin told Billboard. “Presently, we have no idea when payment will be made,...

Well yeah, if there’s a word to describe the ‘Donda’ rapper, that word is “unpredictable,” right? And this holiday, Kim Kardashian is reportedly afraid to have him and new wife Bianca Censori over because it could come with a load of drama. The reality is said to be one that’s distressing the reality TV star.

Kim Kardashian Reportedly “Hitting Her Breaking Point” In Trying To Make Co-parenting with Kanye West Work

Kim Kardashian is running low on patience with Kanye West, or so an insider says. The holidays are around the corner – how did it get here so fast? – and Kim is doing her best to make it a great one for her four kids. The thing is, when Kanye enters the chat, the results are not so jolly.

Per a source, “Kim has been trying her best to make it all work but she’s hitting her breaking point.

Kanye “Ye” West and Kim Kardashian tied the knot in 2014. Unfortunately, they couldn’t make their marriage work and finalized their divorce by 2022. West didn’t waste time moving on with Yeezy’s Head of Architecture, Bianca Censori, whom he married in December 2022. A few months before West and Censori united in wedlock, West commented on Kardashian’s “thirst traps.”

Kanye West and Kim Kardashian are no longer together as a couple, but they’ll forever stay linked via their four kids. West and Kardashian share North, 11, Saint, 8, Chicago, 6, and Psalm 5. The couple filed for divorce in 2021, and in 2022, West spoke to Piers Morgan about where he and Kardashian stand post-filing.

Kim Kardashian and Kanye West have a long history and will forever stay linked because of their four kids. In December 2022, West secretly tied the knot with Bianca Censori. The two emerged as a couple in January 2023, and Censori turned heads with her daring, barely-there outfits.

But she allegedly isn’t happy about how the architectural designer dresses in front of her kids.

Neo’s Epic Transformation In The Matrix (Photo Credit – Netflix)

Keanu Reeves’ most mind-blowing scene as Neo in The Matrix didn’t just change the game—it ended it for the sequels. That moment when he transformed into “The One”? It’s absolute cinematic gold. But here’s the kicker: it was so good it left the rest of the trilogy scrambling to keep up.

Back in 1999, The Matrix wasn’t just a movie; it was a full-on revolution. Mind-melting ideas, insane action, and visuals that made jaws drop—it had it all. Everyone was hooked. Then came that moment, Neo’s significant upgrade and it felt like the universe had shifted. It turns out that it also moved the franchise straight into an impossible-to-follow territory.

It all boils down to that showdown. Remember? Neo is racing across the simulation to escape the Agents, desperately trying to reach a phone.

Chris Hemsworth Reveals He Was Bored Of Thor Before Ragnarok ( Photo Credit – Instagram )

Hold up—Chris Hemsworth was bored of Thor? Hemsworth, who’s been rocking Thor’s cape since 2011, hit a significant funk after Thor: The Dark World (2013). Talk about a shocker for any MCU fan who thought Thor was just… Thor forever.

Here’s the deal: Thor: The Dark World didn’t exactly leave fans screaming “Best. Movie. Ever.” It got lost in the MCU mix—and Hemsworth knew it. “I wasn’t stoked with what I’d done in Thor 2,” Hemsworth admitted. “I didn’t think I grew the character in any way.” Yeah, the second solo flick didn’t break any ground. Even Hemsworth felt like the God of Thunder was stuck on repeat. Ouch.

But just when it seemed like Thor’s arc might’ve hit a roadblock came Taika Waititi to shake things up.

In an effort to squash rumors of a rocky relationship between himself and his wife Bianca Censori, rapper Kanye West reportedly has plans to renew his vows, going about it in his typical, painfully uncomfortable fashion.

According to Radar Online, West wants to hold a nude vow renewal with Censori, on an ironic mission to dispel speculation about the toxic nature of his marriage.

The wedding will reportedly be held at the couple’s estate in Beverly Hills, valued at $35 million. West and Censori recently purchased the mansion, which boasts 11 bedrooms and 18 bathrooms. Previously, a variety of outlets had reported the purchase as a supposed desperate attempt from West to keep Censori with him.

In addition to the vow renewal, West is actively planning to expand his family with Censori, so as to “carry on his legacy.”

Zendaya Rejected One-Dimensional Roles. (Photo Credit – Instagram)

Zendaya, the Emmy-winning star of Euphoria, has cemented herself as one of Hollywood’s brightest talents. But even she faced rejection for turning down roles that failed to meet her standards. In a candid 2021 GQ cover story, Zendaya shared that many scripts she received didn’t offer the depth she craved—and she wasn’t afraid to say no.

“It’s not necessarily that any of [the scripts] were bad,” she explained. “I just felt like a lot of the roles…were just like, I could have played them all as the same person.” Translation? One-dimensional female characters weren’t cutting it for her.

Zendaya rejected scripts where women served as mere props for male leads. “They’d usually serve the purpose of helping the male character get to where they need to go,” she said. No arc, no layers, no growth. That’s not Zendaya’s vibe.

Jennifer Lawrence Drunk On Passengers Set. (Photo Credit – Facebook)

Plot twist: Jennifer Lawrence was drunk during one of her Passengers scenes—and no, it wasn’t a wild party moment. It was for that kiss with Chris Pratt. J-Law needed liquid courage to get through her first on-screen smooch with a married co-star.

Jennifer spilled the tea in a 2015 Actress Roundtable for The Hollywood Reporter. “I got drunk,” she admitted, referring to the nerve-wracking moment. And while we’ve all had times where a drink helps calm the nerves, Jennifer’s post-kiss anxiety kicked things up a notch. “Then that led to more anxiety when I got home,” she revealed, laughing at the guilt that came crashing in. “I don’t know; I couldn’t tell my stomach that it was my job.” Relatable, right?

To make matters trickier, Chris Pratt was married at the time. Jennifer didn’t shy...

During a recent interview on “The Town” podcast, the ‘Dune’ filmmaker said that directing a “Star Wars” movie is not a dream of his, as “Return of the Jedi” in 1983 damaged the franchise for him.

Billboard apologizes to Taylor Swift after unintentionally sparking a controversy that has upset her fans.

The music publication and chart company recently dubbed the singer the second-biggest pop star of the 21st century, just beyond Beyonce.

However, a video announcing the news created outrage as it included a clip of Kanye West’s ‘Famous’ music video, and the outlet has now stated being at the receiver’s end.

‘Popeye The Slayer Man...

Popeye the Sailor Man is a cartoon icon known for his charm, spinach-fueled strength, and heroics. He has been a cultural legend since his comic strip debut in 1929. Created by Elzie Crisler Segar, Popeye became a symbol of determination, often saving the day with his mighty forearms and trademark charm while providing the viewers with their daily dose of laughter.

This beloved character is taking an unexpected, spine-chilling turn in Popeye the Slayer Man. This upcoming horror film reimagines him as a vengeful slasher stalking his prey in an abandoned spinach factory. This aligns with a recent trend in horror cinema, where nostalgic childhood characters are being reinterpreted in terrifying new ways. From the Winnie-the-Pooh: Blood and Honey slasher adaptation to this, filmmakers are mining familiar childhood figures and turning them into nightmare fuel.

Did Dakota Johnson have a mental meltdown because of Suspiria? (Photo Credit – Instagram)

Forget Fifty Shades of Grey—Dakota Johnson’s absolute mental meltdown came courtesy of Suspiria. The 2018 psychological horror remake was so intense it straight-up wrecked her mind. No joke, she needed therapy to recover. “No lie, [it] f**ked me up so much that I had to go to therapy,” Dakota spilled in an interview with Elle. And no, it wasn’t the witches or the buckets of blood that did her in—it was the set itself.

Picture this: an abandoned hotel on top of a mountain in northern Italy. Sounds dreamy. Nope. The Grand Hotel Campo dei Fiori had been empty since the ’60s and was as creepy as it sounds. Cold, dry, and haunted vibes. “It was cold as s**t and so dry,” Dakota recalled. Throw i0 telephone poles pumping electricity through the building,...

Will Moana 2 have a post-credit scene to watch out for? (Photo Credit – Instagram)

Moana 2, the sequel to the 2016 hit animated film Moana, has been released in theaters. The film follows the titular character’s journey, a head-strong girl based in Polynesia who reunites with the demigod Maui for an adventure.

The movie showcases the two as they journey across Oceania to defeat Matangi, the server of the lightning god Nalo, who cursed and drowned the Motufenu junction to stop humans from meeting each other. Disney occasionally includes post-credits scenes in its movies, which makes the audience wonder if Moana 2 will also have one.

Yep, the guy who made the undercut and razor-sharp cheekbones an absolute vibe for eight seasons? Not a fan of it at all. He dreaded the attention it brought him.

During an interview on The Jonathan Ross Show, Emily Blunt—who starred with Cillian in A Quiet Place Part II—dished on her co-star’s profound aversion to his Tommy persona in real life. “When he has his Peaky Blinders haircut, he hates it,” she said. While Tommy Shelby oozes swagger and authority, Cillian? Not so much. Emily shared that Cillian’s idea of a good time doesn’t involve being mobbed by fans on the streets. Nope. “He quite likes just to go home, take a bath, and go to bed,” she quipped.

And here’s the kicker: the guy is the total antithesis of Tommy. The Shelby we know is bold,...

Rachel McAdams was supposed to poetry 3 different Christine Plamer roles (Photo Credit – Facebook)

Initially, McAdams was told she would play three different versions of Dr. Christine Palmer. That’s right—three. However, as the script evolved and new director Sam Raimi (who took over after Scott Derrickson’s departure) steered the project, the final cut only featured two distinct versions of Christine.

“It did change a little bit,” McAdams explained. “I was originally told there would be three versions, and we wound up with two.” But these weren’t just any versions. McAdams’ alternate, Christine, wasn’t the emergency room doctor fans remembered. Instead, she was “a completely different person with a completely different life experience,” McAdams teased. Early footage showed her with dyed hair and dressed in more practical, action-ready attire rather than her ER scrubs.

Her second Christine even had a much “more uniformed” look, perfect for the...

Here’s what happened when Will Smith tried to outwork Tom Cruise (Photo Credit – Instagram)

Will Smith wasn’t just gunning for movie star status—he was after biggest movie star in the world status. And who better to study than Tom Cruise, the gold standard of global promo? In his memoir, Will, Smith revealed how he studied Cruise’s every move while planning his own rise to superstardom. But here’s the kicker: it turns out, Cruise was practically impossible to beat.

Smith was already riding high on the success of The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, but when it came time to transition from TV star to global film sensation, he needed a game plan. That’s when Arnold Schwarzenegger dropped some solid advice at the May 1996 Planet Hollywood launch in Sydney. “You are not a movie star if your movies are only successful in America,” Schwarzenegger told him.

Henry Cavill’s Superman Smiles In Regret (Photo Credit – Facebook)

Even Superman has regrets—at least Henry Cavill does. Looking back at his 2013 debut as the Last Son of Krypton in Man of Steel, Cavill spilled the tea on one moment that still bugs him. And no, it’s not about the cape or a fight scene. It’s his smile.

“There’s a scene at the end of Man of Steel where I’m talking to Martha,” Cavill said. “I would’ve smiled differently. Every time I see it, I say, ‘That’s an irritating smile.’ That’s not how I smile. I would’ve done it differently.”

Yeah, you read that right. Cavill’s still hung up on a blink-and-you-miss-it smile at Clark’s dad’s grave. For a guy who carried Superman’s cape with his jawline, this kind of self-critique is pretty damn accurate.

Billboard issued an apology to Taylor Swift.

The music publication and chart company recently dubbed the 34-year-old “Blank Space” pop titan the second-biggest pop star of the 21st century.

However, a video sharing the news sparked an uproar since it included a clip of Kanye West‘s “Famous” music video in it. After blowback from fans, the outlet shared a statement.

If you forgot, Kanye‘s “Famous” music video included a nude wax figure modeled after Taylor. The visual and its song (in which Kanye proclaims that he made Taylor famous), marked the end of the rapper’s friendship with the pop star.

Despite claims from Kanye‘s then-wife Kim Kardashian that Taylor was aware of his plans, a recording of a phone call that they had revealed that she was not given all of the information.

Billboard removed the video from social media...

Kanye West is making his new music video a family affair.

On Wednesday (November 27), the 47-year-old rapper and Yuno Miles debuted the music video for their collab “Bomb” starring Kanye‘s daughters North, 11, and Chicago, 6.

In the video, the girls drive around in the desert while being chased by various trolls and creatures.

The song was featured on Kanye and Ty Dolla $ign‘s second joint album Vultures 2, which was released back in August.

Keep reading to find out more…North and Chicago also both sing on the track. North even sings in Japanese!

“(It’s Chicago) / It’s Chicago, you know I’m the one / I like to have fun / I like to go to the beach,” Chicago sings. “I like the sun / You know it’s Chi / I only wave when I’m telling them bye, bye.”

Earlier this year, North made her on-stage debut in a live production of The Lion King!

Kanye West rolled out a new video for “Bomb” on Wednesday, featuring his daughters North and Chicago.

The clip puts North and Chicago in the driver’s seat as they zip around a post-apocalyptic landscape while chased by furry beasts in Mario-esque go-carts. The track also features rapper Yuno Miles and was included in his second studio album, Vultures 2, by his ¥$ portmanteau group with Ty Dolla $ign.

The Weeknd has announced a release date for his upcoming sixth studio album, “Hurry Up Tomorrow,” which will conclude the trilogy that began with “After Hours” (2020) and continued with “Dawn FM” (2022). “Tomorrow” gets here in a couple of months, on Jan. 24, 2025.

“Hurry Up Tomorrow” was already preceded by three singles. First came “Dancing in the Flames” on Sept. 13. It peaked at No. 14 on the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart. “Timeless” with Playboi Carti was released shortly thereafter on Sept. 27 and performed even better, topping out at No. 3. “São Paulo” with Anitta, which dropped Oct. 30, has only reached No. 77 thus far.
