Cardi B hits back at haters and admitted she feels ‘great’ in her skin – Music News



The ‘Up’ hitmaker – who is married to Migos star Offset – took to Twitter this week to post a no-make-up video with no filter and her natural unbrushed hair on display.

And Cardi insisted she has “never been afraid of showing” her “real self”, as she slammed those who try to “bring [her] down” when she is having success.

She captioned a video on Twitter: “When they see me doing good they try everything they can to bring me down .Talk about my face or talk about my marriage w.e they can.On the wake up ,no filter ,hair un brushed IDGAF .I feel great ! And I never been afraid of showing my real self . (sic)”

The 28-year-old rapper recently asked her followers for skincare advice for her breakout and she’s now insisted the “little blemishes” on her face won’t stop her from feeling “good”.

She said in the clip: “This is me without no makeup. No filter. You can see all the little blemishes on my face. S*** you can see my lips all chapped. I’ve been biting it all night. I just woke up 20 minutes ago. Didn’t even brush my hair. Like I feel good! (sic)”

Cardi added: “I just want to let y’all know that I feel comfortable in my skin, that I’m great, that I’m happy. My record is doing great and just because you got so much hatred in your heart when I do great, y’all want to put it down, you can’t. Ima stay on top with this face, with this natural face, makeup or not, a b**** is doing good. (sic)”

Last month, the ‘WAP’ hitmaker took to the micro-blogging app to seek recommendations for her “extremely dry” skin and spots from her millions of followers.

The Grammy-winner explained that she tried a number of products, including those by brands such as Clinique and CeraVe, but they either did not work or gave her a bad reaction.

She wrote: “I been breaking out lately and my face is extremely dry.I don’t think these products are working.I think it’s the water out here …..What are some good products for little black heads break outs and dry skin on your face ? (sic)”

Alongside a close-up of the side of her face, she added: “This is my cheek…It’s been happening for like 3 months now …S*** really is uncomfortable. (sic)”

Shaun Ryder is still ‘seeing aliens’ – Music News



The Happy Mondays and Black Grape star – whose 2013 series, ‘Shaun Ryder On UFOs’, saw him travel around the world in search of the truth about UFOs – has insisted his home is still being invaded by extraterrestrial beings, after he previously claimed they came to his home in a “spider” spaceship.

He told the Daily Star newspaper’s Wired column: “I don’t go spotting for it, it just f****** ­appears! Once these things are on you they make you sound like a t*** because they keep appearing in front of you and coming around where you are.

“Obviously, I have to say ­something and then everyone thinks I’m a **** cos I’m off me f****** napper.
“It is how it is, they’re f****** here – they were here ­before us, probably.”

Speaking in 2019, he recalled: “I wake up one morning and there’s this thing that looks like a spider that’s moving across the windowsill and it’s got, like, red lights going across its back and it’s got six legs, sort of like a spider.
“It was hand size, five or six inches long, and makes absolutely no noise whatsoever.

“Then it goes to where the window is and then an aerial goes up and it goes up to where the window is open and then it changes shape and dives off and then as it’s moving out it completely disappeared.

“This sounds like I’m making it all up and it’s all a load of b******s but it’s not.”

Shaun perviously claimed he saw an alien as a teenager and that UFOs landed in his garden.

Meanwhile, the 56-year-old music star- who is planning a new Black Grape album, which will be the rock group’s first since 2017’s ‘Pop Voodoo – admitted ‘Step On’ hitmakers the Happy Mondays would have had no problem “making it” nowadays.

He told the newspaper: “People say it’s harder now but if you look at what we were to rock ’n’ roll, today you got the f****** grime kids doing their own thing and making it.

“It shows no matter what, your music can get out there.

“These kids, when they play shows, they have a ton of people following them. So I think the Mondays would have got out there one way or the other.”

Jade Thirlwall and Mel C to be interviewed by drag queens for new Instagram Live series – Music News



Jade Thirlwall, Mel C and Scissor Sisters singer Ana Matronic are among the stars set to take part in a brand new Instagram Live series for the U.K.’s biggest LGBTQ+ collective, Sink The Pink.

The weekly extravaganza will see a host of musical stars, also including former Girls Aloud star Nadine Coyle, Sophie Ellis-Bextor, Myleene Klass, Kate Nash and Charlotte Church interviewed by a legendary line-up of drag queens.

The Pop Tarts series kicks off with Charlotte on Wednesday at 7.30pm GMT, being interviewed by TeTe Bang, followed by Mel C chatting to Joan Oh on 17 February and Kate Nash talking to Petite Lame on 24 February.
Jade’s conversation with Bimini Bon Boulash concludes the series on 31 March.

Little Mix’s Jade is a big fan of the drag community, and served as guest judge on RuPaul’s Drag Race UK. She apparently impressed TV bosses so much, that a career in presenting could be her next move after pop.

“The Beeb (BBC) see her as a young Davina McCall and are trying to come up with some concepts for her now,” an insider told The Sun. “She shone on (Little Mix reality competition) The Search and really stood out when she was a guest on RuPaul.”

Mary J. Blige, JAY-Z, Tina Turner, and LL Cool J lead nominees for Rock and Roll Hall of Fame – Music News



Mary J. Blige, Tina Turner, JAY-Z, LL Cool J, and the Foo Fighters are among the contenders for induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame this year.

Blige, who has been previously nominated, was named by the organisation on the shortlist on Wednesday, before the final inductees are announced in May.

JAY-Z and the Foo Fighters both released debut albums in 1996, landing them in the eligibility zone that requires nominees have a catalogue dating back at least 25 years.

Nominees making their first appearance on the ballot despite being previously eligible include late Nigerian musician Fela Kuti and singer Dionne Warwick, in addition to Iron Maiden and The Go-Gos.

Others on the list include Carole King, Kate Bush, Devo, Chaka Khan, Todd Rundgren, the New York Dolls, and Rage Against the Machine.

“This remarkable ballot reflects the diversity and depth of the artists and music the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame celebrates” said John Sykes, the chairman of the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame Foundation, in a statement obtained by People. “These Nominees have left an indelible impact on the sonic landscape of the world and influenced countless artists that have followed them.”

Music fans can cast their votes for their favourite stars from Wednesday until 30 April via the Rock Hall’s website.
Meanwhile, Ohio music lovers can also vote in-person at the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame Museum in Cleveland.

Organisers are hoping that the Covid-19 situation will improve enough to allow for a live induction ceremony in the autumn, after last year’s class had to settle for a taped HBO special.
