by Beca Arredondo
6/8/18
I knew that years of watching Mexican soap operas and listening in to the chismes (gossip) would one day pay off. Who can relate? Where’s our people at?! By people I mean you pretty mamacitas who know how to pull the juiciest content from Instagram. Am I right?! Ok, so now that I know that you’re reading this let’s compare our notes. I myself caught the action in the world of Indie Pop and mainstream. I checked in with Cardi B, who by the way is a proud grandma, and Mariah Carey. And for those who are on the Indie side of thangz, I have some stuff for you too … so scroll and let me know what I missed cuz even though I was born for this I ain’t got time to cover it all myself.
UP CLOSE WITH G FLIP
I don’t know what’s more shocking, realizing that G Flip is short for Georgia Flipo rather than a gangster name or that her drumkit Geromo is an actual living creature! Either way the rising pop star is the closest thing to realness that we’ve seen in a while and we’re loving the day in the life of type of insta video she made while in London. If her juggling skills are as good as they look we’re sure she’ll be able handle the shenanigans that come with stardom.
CARDI B BECOMES A GRANDMA
In the words of Cardi B herself …. Errrrmerrrhhhrrrrddd uuuukkkkrrrrrrt! Ahhhhhhh, is there anything more precious in this life than PUPPIES?! No! Nothing creates more joy than puppies! The babies are as beautiful as the parents, and we’re sure the grandparents will be amaze parents once baby Cardi B jr is born.
EMINEM FOR DAYS
I don’t know if Eminem is off the market or not, but I don’t really care because no harm comes from starring or creeping on his Instagram. Earlier this week he shared some shots taken of him accompanied by 50 cent, Westside Gun, and Conway. No sign of Nicki though. Sooooo...my specualtions, it’s all just fun and games between him and Barbz. Don’t they realize this is a cruel game they’re playing for those (me) who dream of creamy white chocolate-y-ness.
JESSE SAINT JOHN
Listen up babies … this week we were reminded to make sure you use extreme CAUTION with your socials and passwords. Our dear friend, pop star, and writer for the stars was hacked! Thankfully though jesse saint john and his loyal followers were quick to catch it, and though he had to LITERALLY start from zero he’s back up on Instagram. So lesson: reset your passwords UGH!
KANYE WEST B DAY
Just fresh from dropping a killer new album, Kanye’s ready to get down to some B Day fun. We weren’t invited to the party but we’ll be able to judge how much have he’s having based on his Twitter contributions.
MARIAH CAREY ONCE IN A VERSACE DRESS
Freaking Mariah Carey! This woman is a legend. For promotion purposes of her Las Vegas residency, she took to Harper Bazaar to answer a few questions … and shocking! She may pretend she’s like the rest of us commoners but she’ll never be one of us, and that public transportation she took, I’m pretty sure it was an UberBLACK. Classic Mariah Carey.
BEYONCE TWINS ARE FAKE
Ok, Instagram should consider placing the report option further away from the embed option because my ADD brain accidentally reported the image as inappropriate. But I guess it’s only fair since Beyonce and Jay Z pretty much disappointed a bunch of fans in England for two reasons. 1) Babies shown on the big screen during their performance were RENTED and 2) as one instagrammer points out, “So it's the same as the first tour, just different outfits ?” Come on guys, I did not spend $800 for floor tickets to see the same tour as two years ago, did I?
Beca Arredondo is easily unamused with all things not related to her interests. On her good days you can catch her avoiding the California sun and glued to her Mac plotting the next big thing. If you happen to run into her on the street and notice her wearing headphones do NOT disturb her. She is not responsible for any possible damage. Aside from the above she's very sweet and perky and responds well to good music and food.
