Lil Nas X goes shirtless on the new cover of Entertainment Weekly.
The 22-year-old musician shares the Pride issue with MJ Rodriguez, Lena Waithe and Bowen Yang, and all four opened up about their trailblazing careers.
In Lil Nas X‘s feature, he opened up about his actions on social media prior to getting his big break.
“When I first got famous, I would block everybody,” he shared, recalling the trolls who flooded (and continue to flood) his mentions. “But now it’s like, okay, cool. For me, I would rather somebody hate the s*** out of me when they’re talking about me rather than not say anything at all, because that’s giving more power to my name.”
Now, he has the mentality of clapping back at the naysayers when they come out.
“I’m very much a chaotic, good person,” he added. “I almost never want to start shooting at somebody who didn’t bring it to my doorstep, you know? But I kind of live for when somebody tries to get me and I’m ready to throw it back at them tenfold. Do I feel bad about it sometimes? Every now and then, but I feel less bad knowing that I didn’t start it. I try to never throw stones, but if somebody throws one at me, I’m throwing an entire house.”

Lil Nas X just announced some very exciting news!
Bowen Yang is speaking out about the violence against Asian Americans.
The 30-year-old actor and comedian made an appearance during the “Weekend Update” segment on Saturday Night Live on Saturday (March 27) to tell viewers to “do more” to stop anti-Asian racism.
“If someone’s personality is punching Asian grandmas, it’s not a dialogue. I have an Asian grandma, you want to punch her, there ain’t no common ground, mama,” Bowen said. “I see my friends donating and that’s great, but then I also tell them: do more. You’re ordering from Chinese restaurants? Great. Do more. Let me know when you feed your white kids chicken feet. You cried during ‘Minari’? Congrats. I was sobbing into my boner for Steven Yeun. Do more.”
“And why are you telling me you tipped your manicurist well?” he continued. “Let me know when you get on your knees and scrub her feet while she looks at your phone. Do more.”
Bowen also referenced Xiao Zhen Xie, the elderly Asian woman who fought back after she was attacked in San Francisco. People then set up a GoFundMe page for her, which raised almost $1 million. She now plans on donating the money to the Asian American community to combat racism.
“I’m just a comedian. I don’t have all the answers,” Bowen added. “But I’m not just looking for them online. I’m looking around me. The GoFundMe for Xiao Zhen Xie, the grandmother who fought back against her attacker raised $900,000, which she immediately gave back to the community. That’s where we are as Asians. Now come meet us there.”
Kim Petras has released her star-studded music video for “Malibu“!
The 27-year-old pop star gathered a ton of her celeb friends, as well as fans, to appear in her new video.
“I’ve been asking all my fans to send me videos of them bringing the beach to their home. So, I’ve been getting so many videos of them in bikinis, with drinks, on beach towels, in their bathtub,” she told Apple Music. “People have really been getting creative for that.”
“So, I’m really excited for that to come out because I really think that’s going to make you feel like you just went to the beach, which was initially all I want to do with the song,” Kim added. “I just want you to feel like you just went to the beach and have a good time. That’s really all I want from the song.”
Those featured in the video include Paris Hilton, Charli XCX, Todrick Hall, Demi Lovato, Madelaine Petsch, Daniel Preda, Aly & AJ, Nikita Dragun, Loren Gray, Scott Hoying, Jonathan Van Ness, Benito Skinner, Pabllo Vittar, Jessie J, Aquaria, Amanda Lepore, Dorian Electra, Bowen Yang, Slayyyter, Gabriel Fontana, Brittany Broski and Theodoraa Quinlivan!
Heidi Klum and Tim Gunn are opening up about their decision to leave Project Runway!
While speaking at the Amazon studios panel during the 2020 Winter TCA Tour – Day 8 at The Langham Huntington on Tuesday (January 14), the 46-year-old host and 66-year-old mentor explained why they decided to “jump ship” from Project Runway ahead of it’s move to Bravo to create their forthcoming Amazon show Making the Cut, which debuts March 27.
“Our imagination was bigger than what we were allowed to do,” Heidi expressed (via THR). “Everything kind of fell apart.” She said the move from Lifetime back to Bravo was either going to mean returning to the “same old same old” or it was an “opportunity to jump ship.” She asked Gunn, “Do you want to jump with me?” Klum said, “It was scary. … We shopped it around and thought that Amazon was the best place, not only for the show but also for the designers.”
Heidi Klum and Tim were joined at the panel by Naomi Campbell, Nicole Richie, and Altuzarra creative director Joseph Altuzarra, who will appear as judges with them on Making the Cut.
Tim also hinted that executives at Project Runway were afraid of changing the format of the fashion reality show, even at the urging of Klum and Gunn. “We couldn’t break out of it because there was a fear — not among us, we’re the ones who were thinking creatively and innovatively about what we wanted to do.”
That same day, Awkwafina joined her co-stars BD Wong and Bowen Yang at their panel for their upcoming series Awkwafina is Nora from Queens during the Comedy Central segment of the 2020 Winter TCA Press Tour.
FYI: Naomi is wearing Noudar and Karen Suen jewelry.
