Dess Dior Addresses Rumors About Cosmetic Surgery

Earlier this week, Dess Dior took to her Instagram Story to show supporters how rehearsals have been going for her ‘Take Notes’ tour. In the videos, she appeared alongside her background dancers, showcasing their choreography.

As the clips made rounds online, supporters immediately began reacting to her appearance. One commenter wrote, “Dess tell me right now how you grew that!!” Another joked, “Desereee? Destiny??? Dessert??? I begggg what’s all that back thereeee.” While reacting to the chatter, one fan said, “Baby Dess went and got on that table?” But Dess quickly shut the rumors down, responding, “I didn’t tho. I would’ve got my stomach too shidddddd.”

Dess Dior Calls Out Critics For Being Hyper-Fixated On Women’s Bodies

Over on Snapchat, Dess Dior continued to clock comments about her body and weight. One person asked the rapper, “Wait when did you get this thick? Did you have work done?” In her circulating response, Dess reportedly said, “Yall be irritating af. I been thick, I’m grown af & I gained weight! I just don’t shake my butt for y’all to see how thick I am lol.”

Dess Dior also appeared to address the ongoing conversation in another video.The rapper shared her thoughts on people constantly criticizing and overanalyzing women’s appearances online.

“Don’t y’all think y’all hyper-fixate on women’s bodies too much? Like physical appearance period. Y’all always talk about somebody face features, somebody arms, somebody feet, somebody thighs, somebody a**, somebody’s stomach. Y’all always hyper-fixate on every detail a woman has on her body,” she said. 

Dess Dior continued by explaining that people often assume women had surgery whenever their body changes naturally after gaining weight.  The rapper also spoke about how women are criticized either way, whether they stay natural or decide to get work done. She later credited eating more for her recent weight gain, sayin. “Like it’s sick. But hey, I don’t know what the science is behind it. It’s just annoying. I’m thick. That’s just what it is. I ate a lot. You wanna gain weight, eat. Like unbelievable.”

Social Media Reacts 

Social media also reacted after Dess Dior cleared the air about surgery rumors.  While some agreed her body looks natural, others still believed she got work done. A few commenters think she may have gotten the same procedure as her best friend, Jayda Cheaves, who has been open about her past surgeries.  Others argued that Dess has always had a nice shape and that not everyone who appears thick used surgery to achieve it. 

Instagram user @tell.ss wrote, “Why do they get on here and lie lol”

Paul McCartney has never been one to shy away from sharing his thoughts, and recently, he has turned his attention to the state of modern fame.

The Beatles icon, who has spent over three decades in the entertainment industry, has witnessed the rise of countless entertainers.

However, he admits he’s unimpressed with today’s social media fame system. 

During an appearance on the podcast “The Rest Is Entertainment,” McCartney reflected on how fame has evolved in the age of social media, admitting he struggles to understand how people achieve stardom without talent. 

“I think a lot of this influencer stuff – I just don’t really get it, because I’m not that generation,” McCartney told hosts Marina Hyde and Richard Osman. “I think it’s funny – and I suppose it always happened – but people who don’t seem to be particularly talented are incredibly famous. Billions of hits and views.”

The songwriter joked that discussing the subject makes him sound “old-fashioned,” though he openly embraced that label. He then compared today’s celebrity culture with the fame he experienced in the 1960s and explained why he has avoided taking photos with fans. 

The Beatles’ lead singer noted that taking pictures with fans affects his sense of identity and normality, referencing a monkey used for tourist photographs in Saint-Tropez. According to him, when he does participate in photo taking, he feels like that monkey. 

After McCartney shared his thoughts, fans online had different reactions. Some agreed with him, while others felt he was being hypocritical.

One supporter wrote in the comments section, “Paul is certainly someone who has earned the right to say there are so very many people, influencers, etc who are hugely famous and yet seem to lack a shred of talent.”

This user on X opposed McCartney writing, “And yet @thebeatles and Apple hire and give free stuff to influencers to promote their stuff to the doom scrolling generation, ignoring old school fans. The irony is hilarious.”

While another spectator called McCartney’s comment “boomer thoughts,” this user blasted the veteran singer as “the pot calling the kettle black.”

More fans backed up the legendary bassist as one fan called how influencers make money a “very low-rent work and it appeals to the instant generation.”

A seventh commenter called influencers “cancers of the society,” and another praised the 83-year-old artist as greater than “all modern stars combined times 100.”

Robert Downey Jr. Previously Addressed The Influencer Culture

McCartney’s criticism of the influencer culture comes a week after Robert Downey Jr. spoke on the same topic. 

As The Blast reported, Downey Jr. spoke about how fame has shifted over the years and how anyone can now gain attention simply by filming themselves on a phone.

While he didn’t think the change was bad, what he rejected was the idea that influencers will become the dominant stars of the future, saying the thought is “absolute horsesh-t.”

However, his opinions earned him backlash online from critics who slammed him for benefiting from the same social media culture he criticizes.

Paul McCartney Refused To Host His Own Netflix Roast

Aside from his commentary on modern fame, McCartney recently made headlines after reports revealed he declined an invitation to headline his own Netflix roast special.

After the massive success of the 2024 roast of Tom Brady, organizers wanted another globally recognized icon. The franchise’s executive producer and comedian, Jeff Ross, confirmed McCartney would be a perfect choice. 

“We did ask Paul McCartney at one point. To me, that would be a fantasy roast,” Ross told Variety. “Paul McCartney doesn’t need anything, but a Paul McCartney roast would be good for the world. It would be so funny to me because he is so loved.”

However, the “Yesterday” singer passed on the opportunity, leaving Kevin Hart to headline this year’s show. 

Sabrina Carpenter Once Had A Childhood Crush On McCartney

Ross’ comment about McCartney being a good fit may not be far off, especially considering the lasting impression the music icon has had across generations.

Per The Blast, Sabrina Carpenter shared a funny story about discovering McCartney as a child after hearing “Rocky Raccoon” for the first time.

According to the singer, the track’s storytelling and songwriting instantly drew her in, leaving her so fascinated by McCartney that she developed a childhood crush on him and even imagined he would one day become her husband.

The 2000s were the beginning of a new millennium and a new era of television, which meant things needed to change, and quickly. Cable television reigned supreme, since this was before streaming services, and many networks were looking for ways to attract attention by way of new, exciting TV shows of all genres. From animation to live-action, there was no shortage of iconic shows produced during this decade.

Even fantasy had a lot of new entries, and this was before the fantasy boom of the 2010s and 2020s. Many of these fantasy series became icons for millennials and the new generation of Zoomers, who still go back to watch their favorites from time to time. Each year of the 2000s saw something amazing released; series that have barely left the spotlight since their inception. These are the best fantasy TV shows from every year of the 2000s.

‘Inuyasha’ (2000–2004)

Inuyasha might not be quite as popular as the other anime shows on this list, but it was pretty popular nonetheless. The franchise spawned a sizable multimedia empire, including feature-length films, video games, and a line of toys and action figures, all of which sold very well. This anime series is about a girl who magically travels back in time to Feudal Japan to assist a young half-demon in recovering the shards of a great gem of power.

DVDs of this series sold millions of copies internationally and topped the bestseller lists for three whole weeks. It’s not commonly talked about anymore, but for the 2000s, this was the beginning of a new era of anime and a great addition to the fantasy genre. Truth be told, not a lot of fantasy shows came out in 2000, but even if there had been more, Inuyasha still would’ve taken the number one spot among anime due to sheer popularity and critical response.

‘The Fairly OddParents’ (2001–2017)

The Fairly OddParents is a crucial part of many a Zoomer’s childhood. This Nickelodeon fantasy/comedy cartoon features Timmy Turner (Tara Strong), an average kid who no one understands. He has two dim-witted parents, an evil babysitter, and is frequently the target of bullies. To abate his misery, he receives two fairy godparents from the Fairy World, who are there to grant his every wish and make his childhood a little easier.

Timmy often makes outlandish or dangerous wishes during moments of anger or misery, which always come back to bite him in the butt later. Still, the first few seasons of this show are absolute comedy gold. It is easily one of the finest cartoons Nickelodeon has ever produced. There weren’t a lot of ’00s kids who didn’t wish they had fairies of their own, which is part of the reason why the show is such a staple of the decade.

‘Naruto’ (2002–2007)

Naruto is another anime series that skyrocketed to popularity upon release, eventually becoming known as one of the “Big Three” anime series. What this effectively means is that it constantly dominated charts, had an enormous cultural impact, and received international attention. That alone should speak to how popular Naruto was, and why it is still a major streaming hit all these years later.

The premise is pretty simple: it’s about a young, rebellious ninja who struggles to find his identity and achieve his dreams. In this world, though, ninjas often have some magical powers, which is why it’s a fantasy. At heart, this series is definitely more of a comedy, not that it doesn’t feature great action and adventure. So many memes have been made of this show that it’s not even funny, and it still gets quoted in casual conversation to this day. It’s easily the best and most culturally important fantasy show that came out in 2002.

‘Dead Like Me’ (2003–2004)

Dead Like Me is a dark dramedy with fantasy overtones, which was actually pretty popular for its time. Currently, it’s mostly been forgotten, which is kind of a shame because it was kind of a hit in 2003. The show follows Georgia (Ellen Muth), a college-aged woman who is abruptly killed by a falling toilet seat jettisoned from a space station. Yes, really. Upon reaching the great beyond, she is informed that in her death, she will have a job, and that job is to serve one of the reapers who escort the souls of the departed to the afterlife.

Her new boss happens to be a guy named Rube (Mandy Patinkin), who is kind of a jerk, but also becomes a sort of father figure to Georgia. Their chemistry on screen together is really something, which only contributes to the bleak comedy that the show became known for. Overall, it was received very well, particularly in the second season, for its wit and biting humor about the nature of life and death. It’s an underrated cult classic that just has to be seen.

‘Lost’ (2004–2010)

Lost was a show that really took the world by storm with its complex plot, wide cast of characters, and surprising substance. Of course, many were disappointed with the way Lost ended, yet many still agree that the first few seasons were absolutely perfect. The series follows a group of survivors from a plane crash on an uncharted island. But the island is no ordinary land mass, as strange forces lurk deep in the jungle.

This show dives into everything from mystery to sci-fi, and yes, fantasy. What’s even better is that the show lets all of its diverse characters have their own time to shine in the spotlight, thanks to a series of flashback sequences showing their lives before they arrived on the island. Excitement about Lost might have died down a bit with time, but when it came out, this was huge, and for a good reason. It’s just so intriguing and has a little something for everyone.

‘Avatar: The Last Airbender’ (2005–2008)

Avatar: The Last Airbender is a Nickelodeon cartoon meant to emulate the anime art style, despite being made by an American studio. Unlike most other Nick cartoons, this one had proper continuity, with a story arc over numerous episodes. It can’t be picked up or dropped at any time—it has to be watched from beginning to end. This is worth it, though, because the world that the creators made for this series is incredibly immersive.

The series is set in a continent inspired by East Asia, made up of four nations based on the elements of fire, air, water, and earth. Each nation is home to sorcerers called “benders,” who can manipulate the element of their nation at will. The Fire Nation, using their war machines and firebenders, has begun a conquest of the rest of the continent, which patiently awaits the arrival of the Avatar, who is destined to master all four elements and unite the nations. This show garnered a huge following and even got a live-action remake for Netflix. There’s just no other show like this one, which has carved out a legendary legacy for itself.

‘Death Note’ (2006–2007)

Death Note is such a popular and influential anime series that it’s honestly kind of shocking it only lasted a year. As many know by now, the series is about a magical book. If someone’s full name is written in the book, that person will die almost immediately. It was a premise that really caught on, receiving a terrible live-action remake via Netflix, and even being parodied during a Treehouse of Horror episode of The Simpsons.

It’s honestly amazing that a show with one season and 37 episodes could have this much widespread impact, yet Death Note delivers. It isn’t just because of the darkness or the chemistry between characters, but also because the premise is just so intriguing. Be honest, everybody who knows about this show has wondered what they would do with a real-life death note if they had one. While it may not be the ideal choice for non-anime fans, this is considered one of the greatest anime series of all time by many a seasoned viewer.

‘The Wizards of Waverly Place’ (2007–2012)

The Wizards of Waverly Place is a Disney sitcom that aired on the Disney Channel, and which quickly became one of the most popular kids’ sitcoms of the decade. The series is about a family of wizards living in suburban New York City, and all the misadventures they have. Their normal lives often clash with their learning to master their magical abilities, resulting in many comedic situations.

The series features a young Selena Gomez and Jake T. Austin as part of the Russo family, a group of siblings who frequently work on magical experiments and such. It might be a little bit cringeworthy to look back on as an adult, but for the time, this show was kind of a big deal, to say the least. It was extremely popular among the youth and proved to be a breakout role for many of its young actors. Even now, a lot of adults look back on this show with fond nostalgia.

‘Merlin’ (2008–2012)

Merlin is a pretty popular fantasy TV show that was met with a lot of critical acclaim, so there’s little doubt that it deserves the number one spot for the best fantasy show of 2008. The series, true to its name, is about Merlin (Colin Morgan), the wizard from Arthurian legend. Typically, in the stories, Merlin is depicted as a grouchy old fuddy-duddy with a long silvery beard, a blue robe and pointy hat, and a wand or staff. Pretty standard wizard stuff.

This show serves as more of an origin story for Merlin, though, with a much younger version of the character learning how to use his magical powers and meeting his future allies. There’s not only a grand sense of adventure and action in this series, but there’s also some great comedic timing and some heartfelt romance, too. It’s a refreshing take on a classic character, one that did pretty well for itself, and which still had a dedicated following.

‘The Vampire Diaries’ (2009–2017)

The Vampire Diaries came out at the peak of the Twilight craze, which didn’t really do a lot for its reputation. Like Twilight, many assumed that this show was just going to be a sappy and moody romance with vampires and werewolves, and very little substance to it apart from that. But The Vampire Diaries ended up outlasting Twilight, breaking away from these comparisons and becoming something much more unique.

Yes, it’s primarily a romantasy series, and yes, there are indeed vampires in it. But it has a lot more emotional depth than Twilight. While Twilight fans, of course, tend to appreciate The Vampire Diaries, the show also attracted a lot of other fans, too, which is why it was able to last for eight whole years before concluding its story. For something that seemed like a quick cash grab capitalizing on a trend, it did pretty well for itself, developing a fanbase that persists nearly 10 years later.

There comes a point every spring when jeans just start feeling…offensive. Between stiff waistbands that dig into your stomach, rigid denim that refuses to stretch and tight silhouettes that somehow feel restrictive and uncomfortable at the same time, it’s no wonder so many of Us are ready to swap our skinny jeans for flowy styles the second temperatures climb above 70 degrees. And unfortunately, finding pants that are actually soft, breezy and flattering usually means shelling out way more money than we’d like.

With a relaxed wide-leg silhouette, lightweight woven fabric and a comfy drawstring waistband, they deliver all the polish of “real pants” without any of the usual discomfort.

Everyone’s rocking the style, including A-listers like Katie Holmes, Gwyneth Paltrow, Meghan Markle and more. To find the pairs worth your hard-earned dollars, we turned to Amazon reviewers, who detail the good, the bad and everything in […]

The beauty of these pants is that they look structured like jeans, but without any of the usual discomfort that comes with traditional pants. The relaxed wide-leg silhouette creates that effortlessly cool, slightly elevated vibe that fashion people are living in right now, while the lightweight woven fabric keeps things breathable and easy for warmer days.

The pull-on design is a game-changer. Instead of stiff buttons and unforgiving waistbands, this pair features an adjustable drawstring waist that feels infinitely more forgiving and comfortable throughout the day.

And while they’re super comfortable, the pants also have tons of details that make them feel so stylish. A front seam elongates the legs for a sleeker look, while the back yoke adds subtle shape so the relaxed fit doesn’t feel sloppy or oversized. The long, flowy 29-inch inseam also gives them that breezy, expensive-looking movement that pairs perfectly with sandals, sneakers or even a little wedge heel for dinner plans.

Shoppers are already fully on board with the comfy-chic energy. “I love these jeans, they’re so comfortable,” one reviewer shared. They’re the kind of easy pants you’ll end up reaching for on repeat all season long, especially on days when real jeans feel like far too much commitment.

Kodak Black is once again facing serious legal trouble after being arrested for the second time in less than two weeks. 

The Florida rapper, whose real name is Bill Kapri, was taken into custody on new charges connected to an alleged incident involving law enforcement. 

The latest arrest comes while the rapper is already battling a separate felony drug trafficking case tied to an investigation from last year. 

Now, the mounting legal drama is putting Kodak Black back under an intense spotlight as his attorney claims the rapper is being unfairly targeted by authorities.

Kodak Black was arrested on Thursday, May 14, in Broward County, Florida, according to jail records viewed by PEOPLE.

The rapper was booked on charges of resisting an officer without violence and attempting to flee law enforcement. Both charges are currently listed as pending trial, while his bond was reportedly set at $0.

The arrest marks the second time in less than two weeks that Kodak Black has landed behind bars. Following the latest development, the rapper’s attorney, Bradford Cohen, strongly pushed back against the allegations while speaking to TMZ.

“This is a self surrender from yet another ‘investigation’ that just happened to also take 5 months to ‘investigate’ for allegedly fleeing and alluding,” Cohen said. The attorney also questioned the repeated investigations involving his client. 

“It’s not unexpected, as this is usually the procedure we go through where there is an unfounded weak arrest and then followed up by yet another arrest for cases that allegedly take 5 or 6 months to investigate,” Cohen continued, adding, “At this point I think everyone agrees that Kodak is consistently being targeted.”

Kodak Black’s Earlier Drug Arrest Sparked Major Headlines

Just days before the latest arrest, Kodak Black was already dealing with a separate felony drug trafficking charge. 

As The Blast reported, the rapper was arrested on May 6 after authorities connected him to an alleged incident outside Orlando’s Children’s Safety Village back in November.

According to an arrest warrant, police responded to reports of gunfire in the area and discovered a BMW and a Lamborghini parked nearby. While officers investigated the scene, one officer allegedly smelled marijuana coming from one of the vehicles.

The affidavit claims Kodak Black approached officers while they searched the cars. Authorities later alleged they found several items that appeared connected to the rapper, including pink scissors matching a pair previously seen in one of his Instagram photos.

Police also claimed a ring recovered at the scene resembled one Kodak Black had shown online, while a firearm allegedly matched another weapon featured on his social media.

The affidavit further stated that officers discovered drugs inside one of the vehicles, leading to the 28-year-old’s arrest on a trafficking in MDMA charge.

Kodak Black Pleaded Not Guilty In Court Appearance

Kodak Black appeared before a judge on May 7 following the drug trafficking arrest. 

According to reports, “Wake Up in the Sky” singer pleaded not guilty and requested a jury trial.

The judge ultimately set his bond at $75,000. During the hearing, the court reportedly referenced Kodak Black’s lengthy criminal history, which includes 12 felony convictions, two misdemeanor convictions, and one failure to appear. 

Despite the serious charges, he was later able to post bond and secure his release. 

In the meantime, the singer’s attorney continues insisting the rapper is being unfairly scrutinized by authorities.

Kodak Black Previously Faced Arrests Over Drugs And Probation Issues

Kodak Black’s recent arrests are far from his first run-in with the law. In 2023, police in Plantation, Florida, arrested the songwriter after officers reportedly found him asleep behind the wheel with white powder around his mouth.

According to a report from The Blast, authorities initially believed the substance was cocaine, but later lab testing determined it was oxycodone prescribed to the rapper. 

Still, the arrest reportedly violated Kodak Black’s probation in another case, leading to him spending two months locked up in Miami.

He was also arrested in 2022 on charges related to oxycodone trafficking and possession of a controlled substance without a prescription.

After being released on bond, Kodak Black was required to undergo regular drug testing as part of the conditions tied to his release.

Court records later showed he was ordered into rehab for 30 days in 2023 after missing a drug test and then testing positive for fentanyl days later.

Jersey Shore: Family Reunion’s Angelina Pivarnick announced she is pregnant.

The reality TV star shared the news on the Thursday, May 14, episode as she showed her costar, Sammi “Sweetheart” Giancola, a positive pregnancy test.

“There’s no way that it just happened naturally. There’s no sperm donor now,” a shocked Angelina, 39, said, referencing her fertility journey that has been one of her main storylines this season.

“I did not think I was able to get pregnant but wow, I’m … pregnant,” Angelina said on a piece-to-camera. “This could be a great thing. This could be my fairy tale, my path, my baby.”

Later in the episode, Angelina phoned the father of her unborn child, who was referred to as “John Doe-Nor” on the show, to tell him her pregnancy news.

Angelina later posted a statement via her Instagram Story to clarify she was just joking when she made those comments about her sex life.

“Following last night’s episode, I want to address a moment that has clearly been misunderstood,” she wrote. “The comments I made were intended in jest and do not reflect my real life. There are no ‘multiple men’ and that narrative is simply not accurate.  Anyone who truly knows me understands the kind of person I am and the values I stand by, especially when it comes to my relationships.”
