Hello gals and gents. It’s me! Your favorite Latina homebody here to guide you through what’s hot and buzzing this past week on Instagram. You will laugh. You will snort. You might even… giggle. But I’ve searched high and low on the feeds for YOUR benefit -- so you know what to talk about at this weekend’s bar outing. Let’s begin, players.
CHARLI XCX + LIZZO = POP MAGIC
As if Lizzo couldn’t get hotter this year, the woman then decides to collab on a song with pop princess Charli XCX. “Blame it On Your Love” was released later on in the week and as Charli so blatantly boasted, breathed some more life in the pop music cycle.
A$AP ROCKY’S PANTIES
Calvin Klein unveiled the faces of their new campaign which includes Billie Eilish, Shawn Mendes and ASAP Rocky. To announce this, Rocky revealed this bit of information with a shirtless pic and… the comments got hectic. “I know you got the panties dropping soon,” Schoolboy Q commented. Good thing Rocky can take a joke.
THIRST PIC OF THE WEEK GOES TO…
Drake is really out here casually stunting his 6-pack like no big deal and GUYS. I am… flushed to say the least. I don’t care if he bought those abs or not. Goddamn. Let a girl eat off of those.
JORJA + KALI
And the funnest-looking tour award goes to… Jorja Smith and Kali have been touring together for several weeks and from the cute comments they’ve been sending back and forth, the duets, and now the matching letterman jackets? Total match made in heaven.
NEW HALSEY ALERT!!
THIS IS NOT A DRILL. Halsey’s new song “Nightmare” is out and accompanied with a video that features grunge Halsey, dominatrix Halsey, zoot suit Halsey? Watch it. Rock out. Finally, another song to put on repeat aside from “Without Me.”
DIPLO’S AIRPOST ANTICS
And here we have a wild Diplo in his natural habitat; poking fun, not giving a shit, and giving his best impression of what I can only assume is a swimming manatee. Haven’t we ALL wanted to do this at the airport? Goals, Diplo.
LANA DEL REY’S DOIN TIME
View this post on InstagramMy @sublime cover Doin’ Time coming out Friday for the new doc about them.
I need to announce very loudly that no one is as excited as I am about Lana del Rey covering Sublime. It is so EXPECTED and unexpected simultaneously. The perfect fit. The perfect COMBO! Lana’s cover of “Doin’ Time” will release this week to support the new Sublime documentary, and life couldn’t be more perfect.
JUNGLE PUSSY’S GENTLE REMINDER
With the country falling apart and imploding in on itself for like the upteenth time this year, I think it would do us all some good to heed Junglepussy’s fun fact of the day from a previous show. “This pussy don’t pop for you,” her sign reads. Relevant AND resonating.
CARDI B’S MOTHER’S DAY
It feels like just yesterday, we all collectively hated Offset for doing our girl dirty. And now? What an interesting turn of events…
But as long as Cardi’s happy, we might be able to let go of Offset’s old transgressions. For now. Because a Birkin? Damn.
KHALID :) :) :)
And to close this week’s “Best of” posts, I present to you a glowing candid of a young Khalid. Repeat after me -- a happy Khalid is the best Khalid. Keep shining, boo.
Until next time! Hugs and kisses, fam!
