    The 40th edition of the MTV VMAs commenced last night and before the music industry’s brightest stars graced the stage with their unforgettable performances, they lit up the red carpet with their stunning fashion choices.
    Throughout the years, the VMAs red carpet has been a canvas for fashion statements that have left us speechless.

    Leading the pack with a remarkable 8 nominations is the sensational Taylor Swift, followed closely by SZA with 6 nominations. The likes of Olivia Rodrigo, Miley Cyrus, Sam Smith, and Kim Petras are not far behind, each boasting 5 nominations. This year, we celebrate Shakira as she receives the prestigious Michael Jackson Video Vanguard Award, making history as the first Latin American artist to be honored. Additionally, we’ll see Diddy take the stage to accept the Global Icon Award, a well-deserved recognition of his legendary contributions to the music industry.

    Bella Hadid and 5 other celebrities who have been vocal about their health battles

    Bella Hadid has been MIA not just from social media but also from the world of fashion.
    The supermodel was a part of every major campaign, runway show and even the most viral moments of 2022 (remember the iconic live spray painting during the Coperni show?). But ever since the beginning of 2023, the Palestinian-Dutch model has taken a sabbatical from work because of health reasons.
    For a few years now, the younger Hadid sister has been vocal about her battle with Lyme disease. An illness she has been living with for over 15 years. Bella along with her mother Yolanda and brother Anwar, all suffer from this medical condition.
    Lyme disease is a tick-borne illness caused by the bacterium Borrelia burgdorferi. It often leads to symptoms like fever, fatigue, headache, and a characteristic “bull’s-eye” rash. Early detection and treatment with antibiotics are crucial to prevent more severe complications. If you suspect you have Lyme disease, it’s important to consult a medical professional.

    Recently, after a long hiatus, the 26-year-old model took to Instagram to share a positive update with her followers. “Living in this state, worsening with time and work while trying to make myself, my family and the people who support me, proud, had taken a toll on me in ways I can’t really explain. To be that sad and sick with the most blessings/privilege/opportunity/love around me was quite possibly the most confusing thing ever. one thing I want to express to you all is that 1: I am okay and you do not have to worry, ♥️and 2:I wouldn’t change anything for the world. If I had to go through all of this again, to get here, to this exact moment I’m in right now, with all of you, finally healthy, I would do it all again. It made me who I am today.”
    The Kin Euphorics founder spoke about the importance of health, a supportive enviroment and how important it was for her to keep it real and transparent.
    While social media is infamous for showing us the glossy side of the celebrity lives, over the years many of them have come forward and spoken openly about their health condition. It is vital to lift the veil of illusion around the perfectionism that is often associated with the celebrity culture.
    Scroll the above gallery to see all the brave celebrities who have been open about their struggles with various illnesses.

    Here’s why the Selena Gomez vs. Hailey Bieber narrative needs to end

    Lifestyle

    by Ruman Baig
    4 hours ago

    It’s 2023, how are women still pitting womnen against each other over issues so trivial, that should have been best left in high-school.
    Unless you’re living under a rock, you must be aware of the whole scoial media drama between Hailey Beiber and Selena Gomez — orchestrated by unhappy people on the internet. While the latest edition of this tomfoolery may have begun in February, the real catty narrative around Hailey and Selena have been doing the rounds since the former married Justin Bieber in 2018, six months after his reported breakup with Selena. Ever since, everything the two women do — right from posting a song on their personal IG stories to writing a slightly vague caption, everything is turned into a planned dig by theory makers on Instagram and TikTok.

    While the ladies have reportedly mentioned under various platforms that there’s no bad blood between the two — netizens cannot seem to let the two women live in peace. Back in 2022, Selena and Hailey even publically posed together for a photo op, in an attempt to put the past behind at the Academy Museum Gala. And for a fleating moment, both beauty entrepreneurs could breathe a sigh of relief.
    Cut to a month ago, the Rare Beauty founder posted about accidentally overlaminating her brows. On the same day, Kylie Jenner shared a video of herself and Hailey on FaceTime highlighting their eyebrows, which was instantly translated as an attack on the singer. TikToker Nuha, @devotedly.yours, shared her theory and left the internet in a frenzy. Both Selena and Kylie resorted to comment on this absurd theory. “This is reaching,” wrote Jenner, “U guys are making something out of nothing. This is silly,” selena backed the reality star with her comment on the same TikTok.

    @devotedly.yours Replying to @its_alexhilton Half asleep making this but @piamia’s latest video says a lot without saying a single thing #selenagomez ♬ Calm Down – Rema & Selena Gomez

    Despite the invidual involved in the supposed fued clearing the air, fans of both parties continued to vandalize their social media with hateful comments, Hailey more than Selena. Things grew even more tensed when online hate started picking up heat in real life. Recently, at a Justin Bieber concert, the crowd heckled him by chanting “Fuck Hailey Bieber” leaving the singer and his wife in complete dismay.
    Amidst the chaos, Selena took a break from social media, dethroned kylie Jenner as the most followed women on Instagram and then came back to regular programming, posting about the filming of her show. But the bitter fans apparently weren’t done berating Mrs. Bieber on her behalf. The online bullying progressed to death threats for the Canadian singer’s wife and the two women had to yet again take a stand for each other publically.

    On 24th March, 2023, Selena shared an Instagram story almost pleading her followers to leave Hailey alone. In the said story, she wrote, “Hailey Bieber reached out to me and let me know that she has been receiving death threats and such hateful negativity. This isn’t what I stand for.”
    Following her statement, Hailey posted, “I want to thank Selena for speaking out, as her and I have been discussing the last few weeks how to move past this ongoing narrative between her and I. The last few weeks have been very hard for everyone involved and millions of people are seeing so much hate around this which is extremely harmful.”
    Hailey and Selena’s official statements

    After this, they may just have to come out in the open and sign a peace treaty for the people to finally let them move one. In this entirely fabricated chaos, one can visibly see how easy it is to keep a triangle involving two women go on for so long. Ever since time immemorial, celebrities have been dating, breaking up and then dating ex partners of other celebrities. While men are seldom in the limelight for choosing a happily ever after with one half of a popularly shipped couple, female celebrities cannot seem to see the end of it. Both women in this situation are highly accomplished and are constantly striving to grow in their space, while allowing other women to do the same. Yet, they cannot catch a break about a decison in their lives involving the same man.
    Even if any of the fan cooked up theories held any semblence of truth, does a sketchy comment or a shade-throwing IG story deserve a death threat in reaction? I don’t think so. Celebrity or not, no women needs to be answerable for her personal choices, irrespective of public opinion. It is about time we go back to treating social media like a space to harbour community spirit, instead of using it as a false court of law where the general public writes a death sentence for any one and everyone they don’t agree with.

    Selena Gomez becomes the first-ever woman to cross 400 million followers on Instagram

    Lifestyle

    by Ruman Baig
    2 hours ago

    Celebrating this major milestone with her insta-family through a heartfelt post, Selena stated, “Wishing I could hug all 400 million of you.”

    Being the only woman to cross this massive number, the Disney alumni is known for keeping it raw, real and relatable on social media. This also makes her the third-most-followed person on the platform after football players Cristiano Ronaldo (with 562 million followers) and Lionel Messi (with 482 million followers).

    Recently, the Rare Beauty founder has been in the news because of cooked-up social media drama with reality-star Kylie Jenner and model Hailey Bieber. While the trio maintained their silence about all multiple theories emerging on both TikTok and Instagram—Selena took a sabatical from the platform, right after she dethroned fellow beauty-moghul Kylie Jenner as the most followed woman, who held the top slot for a while. Setting an example even through this, Selena’s move declared that even when you’re on the top of your game, you are allowed to take a step back.

    Returning to the platform to share her gratitude, Selena shared snippets of moments with fans that she cherishes. Over the years, the singer-actor-producer has been vocal about all her struggles on social media and has used the platform to constantly voice her opinion on issues that matter. Whether it was publically thanking her bestfriend and Kindey donor Francia Raisa for saving her life or candidly talking about her constant battle with depression, anxiety and bipolar disorder.

    Taking unfiltered to a whole new level, her authenticity on Instagram is what sets her apart. A platform where images are constantly retouched and only the best parts of a celebrity’s life are careully revealed, Selena unabashedly showcases herself sans any filter or alteration. Embracing everythng from weight fluctuations to bad hair days, Selena is continually inspiring millions of women to love themselves regardless. Her Apple TV documentary, My Mind & Me, shows an extension of her jounery from a child star to a pop sensation, and how life under the limelight is more than what meets the eyes.

    The ‘plot twist’ with Selena Gomez and Hailey Bieber no one saw coming

    Lifestyle

    by Olivia Morris
    34 mins ago

    Selena Gomez and Hailey Bieber are officially putting the past behind them.
    The pair both attended the Academy Museum of Motion Pictures 2nd Annual Gala presented by Rolex on Saturday, where they unexpectedly posed for a series of photographs together – a move no one saw coming.
    The photographs, which have gone viral on social media, were taken by Tyrell Hampton. The photographer shared one of the images on his Instagram page which he captioned “plot twist”, which is perhaps the only way to describe it.

    These photographs come after Bieber recently appeared on popular Spotify podcast Call Her Daddy where she opened up to host Alex Cooper about the rumours she “stole” her now-husband Justin Bieber from Selena Gomez following their eight-year on-off relationship.
    The 26-year-old flatly denied any crossover ever occurring with Gomez’s relationship with Justin saying, “I can say, period, point blank, I was never with him when he was in a relationship with anybody. That’s the end of it.”
    The model also addressed the ongoing slew of hate she had received online over the years due to her relationship with Justin.
    Days after the podcast was released Gomez took to TikTok appearing to address what Bieber had discussed during her tell-all interview, saying there is no place for bullying in her community.

    “I think some of the things that I don’t even need to be aware of are just vile and disgusting, and it’s not fair, and no one, ever, should be spoken to in the manner that I’ve seen,” she said.
    Bieber, formerly Hailey Baldwin, married Justin in November 2018 after the pair got engaged in July 2018. The pair had reconciled their relationship just a month earlier in June 2018, after previously dating in 2015 and 2016.
    At the time, Justin had just split from long-term girlfriend Gomez whom he had dated on and off between December 2010 to March 2018.
    After the pair split for the final time in March, this led many fans to conclude there was a crossover between Gomez and Bieber and has led to an onslaught of online hate.
    Well, in true “plot twist” fashion, both women have proven there is no bad blood at all. We love to see it.
