The Fela In Versace Video is yet another reminder that our local faves don’t have budgets to take music videos for hit songs seriously because this “industry” is all kinds of a mess

The #FelaInVersaceVid is so terrible especially where it's shot in the day.@akaworldwide get new directors man. Like the guy who shot mayo/tito mboweni.

Mariah Carey is back with new music
GTFO and shut the front door - Mariah Carey has a new song!
The diva released new music on Thursday. The sultry single is called 'GTFO' (short for 'Get the F**k out') and is the perfect track to play for a partner who has wronged you... *points to the door*.

Some of the lyrics include:
Don't tell me these lies when you're bluffing
How 'bout you get the f**k out?
Go stay at your friend's house or something
Don't mean to be rude, but take your s**t and leave
(How 'bout you)
Go stay at your friend's house or something
(How 'bout you)
Go and stay with your homeboy, you was talking to
(How 'bout you)
I ain't tryna be rude, but you're lucky
(How 'bout you)
I ain't kick your a** out last weekend
Here's a snippet of the track:

At 48, Mariah is still looking as gorgeous as ever. Like a fine wine, she only gets better with age.

Kylie Jenner talks bullying in emotional video
Being in the public eye as much as the Kardashians and Jenners are, they often find themselves at the mercy of trolls who use their online identity to spew hate and viciousness.
Big name celebs like Kylie Jenner go through real-life issues too. Her sister, Kendall took to her Twitter account to share an emotional video posted a few years ago by her sister, Kylie, who confessed that she was a victim of bullying.
