    The ‘Hot Girl Summer’ raptress also denies that her move to Roc Nation had nothing to do with the drama, assuring that Jay-Z, the founder of the company, is ‘not worried about them.’
    Mar 7, 2020
    AceShowbiz – Megan Thee Stallion is currently in the middle of legal battle with her label 1501 Records as she claimed that they tried to block her from releasing music. Detailing the affair, the Hot Girl Summer got candid in a recent interview while she stopped by The Breakfast Club, though she put in a disclaimer that “a lot of things I can’t say because it’s legal. I gotta handle it in court.”
    “When I first got signed, it was Carl and T Farris,” she explained. “Everybody was super nice of course. But for whatever reason, me and my mom were super drawn to T Farris. He was really nice, really supportive. I recorded at the studio every day with them. I had shows, I was just coming up. T Farris would be there, Carl would pop up from time to time. I’m pretty sure he’d help with radio.”
    “When things started really taking off, it would be me, my mom, and T Farris,” she went on saying. “When we’d be on the road, that’s the team. When things start picking up even more, I got signed with 300. So I really didn’t see nobody from 1501 that much.”
    During the interview, Meg also denied that her move to Roc Nation had nothing to do with the drama. “Jay-Z not worried about them,” Meg assured. “You saying names just trying to draw attention to the situation…I feel like people want to bully me. You don’t have to gang up on me. I didn’t do nothing to ya’ll.”
    “I was at a point where I was already frustrated,” she says. “When I found out I couldn’t drop any music, I was like I might as well say something now, ya’ll ain’t letting me drop music.”

    When Charlamagne Tha God asked her what was the motive of the alleged boycott, Megan revealed that she didn’t even know why 1501 didn’t let her release music despite her being one of the hottest hip-hop stars today. “I really don’t know. What’s the thought process?” she shared.

    The ‘Lover’ singer needs five hours every morning to become a guy in the music video for her latest single, and gets rid of her feminine gestures with the help of a movement coach.
    Mar 7, 2020

    The stunning star wore prosthetics to become a guy in the promo for the single, with the singer explaining she even had fake private parts for the role.
    “Putting on the look for the man took five hours every morning and it’s been a joy because (special effects makeup artist) Bill Corso’s been doing it,” she explained in a behind the scenes video posted on YouTube on Friday, March 06. “I worked with him once before when he turned me into a zombie for the Look What You Made Me Do music video and I had no idea what they do to your body to make you look different.”
    “I had muscle suits on underneath things, I had… I don’t even want to talk to you (about) what else, I don’t even want to tell you about it, this is a family show.”

    Taylor also worked with movement coach Stephen Galloway to perfect her moves as a man, eliminating all girlie gestures for the shoot.
    “I was so stoked to have a movement coach help me with things like… you know I’ve never thought about how men walk, it’s never something that’s interested me before, but they walk differently than we do,” she smiled. “I’ve never smoked a cigar before. I’ve never adjusted my underpants like that.”

    Mar 6, 2020
    AceShowbiz – Fifth Harmony star Lauren Jauregui has slammed the “creepy” trend of resurrecting dead musicians to stage hologram tours.
    The “Expectations” singer has made it clear she would never want her music archives to be plundered for profit posthumously, or for her likeness to be digitally recreated to “perform” for fans.
    “Wild that I live in an era where I’ll probably have to write into my will that I DO NOT want anybody to release my unreleased music after death or make money off touring my hologram…it’s so invasive and CREEPY,” the 23-year-old wrote on Twitter late on Tuesday, March 03.
    “I’m such a weirdo about what songs I actually like out of those I make I can’t imagine ANYONE having the capacity to make that decision for me after I’m gone…I would be so hurt/angry and I will find ur (sic) a** & haunt you.”

    Lauren Jauregui shares her opinion on hologram tours of late musicians.
    Jauregui didn’t reveal what had inspired her Twitter rant, but her remarks emerged a day after Whitney Houston’s representatives announced plans to stage her controversial hologram tour in North America, following its recent European debut, which garnered mixed reviews.

    Machine Gun Kelly Responds to Backlash Over Sultry Papaya Scene on 'Why Are You Here'

    WENN/Avalon

    ‘Welp, I’m never gonna look at a papaya the same way again,’ a fan reacts to the controversial scene which features a female model putting some of her fingers on a papaya.
    Mar 6, 2020
    AceShowbiz – Machine Gun Kelly recently released a music video of “Why Are You Here”, though it was started by someone leaking the video. The visuals for the pop-punk track saw the hip-hop star having an adult fun, but one particular scene didn’t sit well with some fans.
    The said scene of the colorfully-charged, action-packed video features a female model putting some of her fingers on a papaya which was purposedly censored. The sexual innuendos seemingly offended people as some thought that MGK was alluding to a woman pleasuring themselves.

    “Welp, I’m never gonna look at a papaya the same way again,” a fan reacted to the scene. However, some fans jumped to his defense, tweeting, “People getting offended at MGK’s mv showing a woman fingering a papaya are the same people who have never masturbated a day in their life.”
    MGK also clapped back at the haters in a video he shared on Twitter on Thursday, March 5. “OK, so I saw some of you were offended by certain scene in a music video I just released,” he began. “Let’s just put perspective on some things in 2020 that we should be concerned about. Hate crimes? F**k that. Coronavirus? It’s a big deal. Let’s figure that out. Offensive fruits? I’m gonna go ahead and say, ‘Chill tf out. It’s a papaya.’ ”

    Some fans agreed with the star, admitting that “ppl so sensitive these days.” Someone else pointed that “people post worse on IG and twitter.”
    Meanwhile, some others were more interested in MGK’s pink finger nails. “He wants the camera to see those nails so bad,” a fan commented. Another person was eager to have nails done just like that, asking, “Anybody know what color that is on his nails….? I’m going to the nail shop in the morning & I want that exact color.”
