CupcakKe’s crude, witty, and extra-explicit lyrics are back. On Monday, the rap star released the music video for “Grilling N—-s II,” as she celebrated the release of Dauntless Manifesto, her first album in over six years.
The video opens with CupcakKe dressed as a dominatrix (whip and all) in a surgery room before cutting off a man’s phallus and later grilling it like a glizzy at a pool party. CupcakKe drops bars — referencing Mariah Carey, Will and Jada Pinkett Smith, and influencer Keith Lee — by the pool while dressed in all-pink.

Aubrey Plaza first rose to stardom when she portrayed the role of April Ludgate in the renowned TV Series Parks and Recreation. Since then the actress never had to look, as she has gone on to work in some of the most successful films, leaving an indelible mark in the film industry. However, Plaza is not done with portraying iconic characters as she is set to be featured in Francis Ford Coppola’s upcoming passion project titled Megalopolis.
Adam Driver as Cesar Catilina in Megalopolis
The filmmaker has bet everything on the project, and the actress has broken her silence on Coppola’s vision was not believed by any major studio. Since none of the studios were ready to help the filmmaker in the production, he bet everything on the film. Moreover, they are over the rocky roads and how the film’s success would prove everyone wrong.

The first season of Frieren: Beyond Journey’s End ended in March, after just six months on the air and a mere 28 episodes, which is not nearly enough for this marvelous series. The season ended with the phrase “The Journey to Ende Continues,” which many fans have taken as a confirmation of a second season, especially since it has been used in many other released videos and images. Having said all of this, a second season is basically a sure thing despite no explicit official confirmation, and while fans are waiting for new information, the series is on a break. But that doesn’t mean that we’re done with Frieren, as we have more exciting news to report.

Whizbang’s Workshop is more than just Hearthstone‘s latest expansion. It’s effectively a celebration of Hearthstone’s 10-year anniversary, which means that the expansion is filled with cute nods to the game’s history as well as entirely new concepts.
With all of those new cards comes a new meta. While it’s notoriously difficult to predict the most powerful new decks so early into a Hearthstone expansion, here is a rundown of some of the most powerful new decks for each class at the start of this new era.

The satirical psychological horror American Psycho was released in 2000. Set in Manhattan during the late 1980s Wall Street boom, the film follows the story of a wealthy man named Patrick Bateman who works as an investment banker in Manhattan.
Christian Bale as Patrick Bateman in a still from American Psycho
When the film was released in 2000, it shot Christian Bale to fame and cemented Patrick Bateman as an iconic character. There were times when people used to look up to him as the role model. And all those gym fanatics were obsessed with getting Bateman’s sinewy body.
It’s nearly impossible to imagine anyone other than Bale as Patrick Bateman, but fans believe there’s an actor who can pull it off. Now, with talks of a remake of American Psycho underway, it’s Tom Holland who is receiving strong backing from fans to play the lead role.

FX’s long-running horror anthology “American Horror Story” is such a megahit that in 2021, a spin-off series streamed on Hulu titled “American Horror Stories.” Unlike the parent show, “Stories” offers up different plots and cast members each and every week (think “Black Mirror” only with ghosts and zombies). Created by Ryan Murphy and Brad Falchuk, the program has received two Emmy nominations. The second edition of “Stories” premiered July 21, 2022 on Hulu and streams one episode per week throughout the summer.
In addition to dozens of fresh cast members, several recognizable “AHS” alumni appear in the new episodes, including Denis O’Hare, Gabourey Sidibe, Max Greenfield, Cody Fern, Seth Gabel, Nico Greetham and Teddy Sears.

“American Horror Stories” riffs on home invasion horror with a tech-based morality tale that’s sweeter than it is scary. “It can see what your eyes can’t.” The world is a scary place, even without the myriad of monsters and supernatural creatures that have filled the episodes of American Horror Story.

The low-key track opens with Lloyd channeling late Audioslave frontman Chris Cornell as he belts over fingerpicked electric guitars. Gentle acoustic strums arrive during the second verse, and Morello’s wheezing and whirring solo highlights the instrumental bridge.

Puerto Rican-Dominican superstar Ozuna performed the brand new remix of his 2019 single “Baila Baila Baila” live on Thursday at the 2019 Billboard Latin Music Awards. He was joined onstage by fellow urbano power players Daddy Yankee, J Balvin and Anuel AA — who featured alongside Farruko in the official recording of the remix, which was released just hours before their televised performance.
Dressed in various shades of neon green, the four reggaetoneros circled each other with swagger, spitting provocative verses to the slinky dancehall rhythm; at their feet was a ginormous projection of Ozuna’s face.

Some Oscar campaigns are way better than others. Mind you, it’s probably just the luck of the clock that “Lady Gaga Enigma,” the highly spectacular, long-in-the-works show that opened Friday night in Las Vegas, happens to be kicking off in the heart of awards season. Gaga did blurt out toward the close of opening night that she hopes to extend her residency at the Park Theater from the currently scheduled 11 months to two to three years, at which point the words “for your consideration” will be a very distant memory. Still, if there’s an exact opposite to what happened when “Norbit” came out in the midst of Eddie Murphy’s “Dreamgirls” hopes, it has to be the sight of Lady Gaga singing and dancing her well-toned heart out, reminding 5,200 people a night that pretending to be a mousy brunette is, while a considerable skill, just one of about a thousand.

Flashing video screens welcome her to Las Vegas for the beginning of her two-year residency at the Park Theater; a cocktail bar blasts “Hair Body Face,” a deep cut from the soundtrack for her Oscar buzz film A Star Is Born; the casino itself plays songs like Joanne’s “Dancin in Circles” and “Telephone” as thousands of fans wind around the craps tables and slot machines in sequins, fur and Gaga merch from past incarnations of the pop diva.

Ozuna, the most-viewed artist on YouTube in any genre in 2018, performed a slick, assured medley at the Latin Grammys on Thursday.
Ozuna opened in an unexpected setting: Seated with two acoustic guitarists and a cajon player, he reimagined his trap hit “El Farsante” — a version with Romeo Santos reached Number 49 on the Hot 100 — as a pretty, yearning ballad. But he didn’t stay subdued for long. His next song was the slick pop reggaeton single “Unica,” and the programmed drums kicked in forcefully behind him.

The “Te Bote” remix, by Nio Garcia, Casper Magico, Darrell, Bad Bunny, Nicky Jam and Ozuna, is one of the most indispensable songs released this year in any genre — a hit in both old-fashioned media like radio as well as the warp-speed world of YouTube, where it has more than twice as many views as Cardi B, J Balvin and Bad Bunny’s “I Like It.” Suffice it to say that this is not a nice song; these boys are seething with resentment, their pride wounded by a woman who loved and left.

Ozuna is nothing if not a generous collaborator. In 2017 alone, he helped re-launch Natti Natasha’s career by joining her on “Criminal” (1.5 billion YouTube views to date), gave go-to producer Chris Jeday his first solo hit by contributing to “Ahora Dice” (1.1 billion views), and aided Cardi B in her attempts to build a relationship with the Latin mainstream (“La Modelo”).
The pattern continues on Ozuna’s new album Aura: This time the Puerto Rican star enlisted Akon for a fizzy collaboration titled “Coméntale.” Akon, of course, was already a huge star in the U.

No Latin singer has sold more albums (313,000) in the first six months of 2018 than Ozuna; streaks of hits like the one in the middle of Aura reveal just why.
“Ibiza” starts with an acoustic guitar lick that remains blissfully genre-agnostic: It could be an introduction to another one of Santos’ come-hither bachatas, a Miley Cyrus pop smash from 2008, one of Jojo’s R&B earworms from 2004, or an...

Brit film producer Jonathan Sothcott and his London based production house Hereford Films are set to release their first nerve-jangling horror feature Aura this August. The “Blumhouse style” Us-set science horror explores the curious world of Kirlian energy/photography within the context of a supernatural, possession movie. It’s an innovative and frightening looking spin on a classic horror concept, that blends the best of many sub-genres.
“Aura tells the story of Mitch Walker and his wife Diane who inherist his uncle’s house. Inside they discover an old camera designed for Kirlian Photography – the practice of capturing the subject’s ‘Aura’.
