10 TWITTER MOMENTS: NICKI MINAJ HANGS OUT WITH RIHANNA
Obviously not content with giving us all migraines with "Chirp," Twitter unveiled a brand new design update on Tuesday in the form of "edge-to-edge tweets." While I appreciate the ability to watch cat videos in wide-screen, do you know what I'd appreciate even more? BEING ABLE TO EDIT MY DAMN TWEETS! Ahem… Check out this week's dose of We Are: The Guard's 10 Twitter Moments, featuring Nicki Minaj, Phoebe Bridgers, Lil Nas X, and seven other favorites!

OMG? RIHNIKA IS BACK, BESTIES! It's a Labor Day miracle! Everyone looks so healthy and glowing, and I couldn't be happier for Momma Minaj and Auntie RiRi getting to spend some quality family time together. Can we also talk about the fact Papa Bear has the most squishable cheeks of all time? SO ADORABLE!
Rih’s family was just as beautiful & down to earth as her #CaribbeanGirlsRunIt #AskRihRih pic.twitter.com/qcALGgkcjl

PHOEBE BRIDGERS IS ON THE ROAD AGAIN
Talking to my therapist on the phone, pacing around a Krispy Kreme parking lot.
Man I missed tour.

The most Phoebe Bridgers tweet of all time, much? LOL! Anyways! Now that our favorite bands and musicians are finally heading back out on tour, something tells me this is the first of many tweets like this coming to our timelines. P.S. Bring on the soul-destroying folk ballad inspired by this day!

LIL NAS X ANNOUNCES HIS PREGNANCY
SURPRISE! I can’t believe i’m finally announcing this. My little bundle of joy “MONTERO” is due September 17, 2021 pic.twitter.com/dry8lAhpPr
— MONTERO (@LilNasX) September 2, 2021
GASP! I'M SUCH A PROUD AUNTIE, YOU GUYS! I'd also like to take this moment to send my hugest congratulations to Lil Nas X. He's going to be such a brilliant, incredible mom to Baby Montero. Oh, and to the haters who are mad at this latest stunt, where was that same rage when Junior dropped in 1994?
let me get offline, all of this negative energy is not good for the baby

— Normani (@Normani) September 2, 2021
Music Twitter was packed full of Normani, Doja Cat, and Megan Thee Stallion living their best lives at the Dolce & Gabbana extravaganza in Venice recently, and honestly? I was here for it! Mani looked amazing in her leopard print catsuit, and don't even get me started on her ball gown! What did we do to deserve?
@Normani, Venice, 2021.

THUNDERCATS PAYS TRIBUTE TO MAC MILLER
Not one day that goes by where you aren’t swimming in circles in my mind. Love you always Mac. pic.twitter.com/fSskfLMyFF
— ashy daddy (@Thundercat) September 7, 2021
Can you believe it's been three years since we lost Mac Miller? It still hurts to this day, but at least we have so many beautiful memories to look back on. Big love to Thundercat and all of Mac's friends and family during this painful time. Mac is shining his light down on all of you, no doubt about it!
LANA DEL REY SEASON APPROACHING
I guess you could say this album is about what it was like, what happened, and what it’s like now.
If you’re interested go back and listen to the first three songs I put out earlier. They chronicle the beginning. This song hits somewhere in the middle. pic.twitter.com/TgREjUDj7C— Lana Del Rey (@LanaDelRey) September 7, 2021
Lana Del Rey's eighth studio album Blue Banisters is almost, almost, almost here, and if this tweet and its accompanying clip of "Arcadia" is anything to go by, it's about to be a whole damn cultural reset! I repeat! A WHOLE DAMN CULTURAL RESET! Bring on Sad Girl Fall, Miss. Elizabeth Woolridge Grant!
