Is Miley Cyrus's Metallic Gold 'Flowers' Dress Tied to Jennifer Lawrence?
It's already been two years since Miley Cyrus released her mega Grammy-winning hit, 'Flowers,' and as she gears up for the release of her ninth album, Something Beautiful, on May 30, she's dropping a bit of lore from her iconic Endless Summer Vacation music video shoot.
At the time, fans heavily speculated that the breakup anthem reflected her on-again, off-again relationship with Liam Hemsworth and even theorized that a specific detail in the track's music video had ties to his The Hunger Games costar, Jennifer Lawrence.
The detail in question happens to be the metallic gold Yves Saint Laurent cutout gown Miley donned from the fashion house's fall 1991 collection, as it slightly resembles the Prabal Gurung number J.Law wore during The Hunger Games' L.A. premiere in March 2012.
The 'More to Lose' singer recently weighed in on fans' theory that her outfit choice was inspired by Jennifer as she signed autographs before her appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live!
'Miley, was your 'Flowers' dress a reference to Jennifer Lawrence?' one fan asked, to which she replied, 'No, but I love that dress of hers.'
ICYMI, Jennifer and Miley's ex, Liam, faced romance rumors as they filmed The Hunger Games trilogy, which seemed to die down when he married Miley in 2018. Once she released 'Flowers' and wore her golden gown, the speculation resurfaced.
J.Law put the rumors to rest when asked about Miley's video during a 2023 appearance on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen.
'There's a lot of talk that the music video was referencing a secret fling that you had with Liam Hemsworth while he was with Miley Cyrus. Can you please respond to this?' Andy asked, per Us Weekly.
'Not true,' she said. 'I would love to. It's not true. Total rumor.'
She continued, 'I mean, we all know that me and Liam, like, kissed one time. But it was years after they broke up. So I just assume that was, like, a coincidence.' And a coincidence it was—glad to see these golden girls supporting each other!

Bob Dylan, 83, Sends Hilarious 80th Birthday Message to Fellow Rock Legend
When iconic guitarist for The Who, Pete Townshend, turned 83 this week, there was another legendary rocker waiting to welcome him to his ninth decade on the planet: 83-year-old Bob Dylan. Dylan took to X to wish his fellow Grammy winner a happy birthday on Monday, May 19, writing, "Happy birthday Pete. Who's the new boss? Is he like the old boss? Have you met him yet? Say hello to Roger.' As fans the world over know, Dylan's message was a witty reference to the iconic Who song 'Won't Get Fooled Again" — written by Townshend — which features Roger Daltrey singing the lyrics, 'Meet the new boss, same as the old boss.' Music lovers knew exactly what Dylan was talking about, with one person quoting "The Seeker," a song by The Who that name-checks the "Like a Rolling Stone" singer: "I asked Bobby Dylan, I asked the Beatles, I asked Timothy Leary, but he could not help me either." Another fan shared a pic of Townshend and Dylan posing from what appeared to be the '80s writing: "Fashion icons." Townshend and Dylan have praised each other's talents over the years, with Townshend even crediting Dylan for helping to inspire the classic Who song "My Generation." '(He) definitely created a new style of writing," Townshend said, per Far Out Magazine. "Dylan was the one who I think got the message across to The Beatles. (That) was that you can write songs about subjects other than falling in love.'

‘Wicked' Star Cynthia Erivo Fires Back at MAGA Hate for Playing Jesus
Wicked star Cynthia Erivo has some thoughts about the MAGA outrage—fueled by Elon Musk—over her casting as Christ in the Hollywood Bowl's production of Jesus Christ Superstar. 'You can't please everyone,' the Tony, Grammy, and Emmy-winner told Billboard in a new interview. 'It is legitimately a three-day performance at the Hollywood Bowl where I get to sing my face off. So hopefully they will come and realize, 'Oh, it's a musical, the gayest place on Earth.'' The show will run August 1-3. Many MAGA fans slammed Erivo's Christ casting as 'blasphemy' on social media when her role was first announced in February. What seemed lost on several critics was the tone of the show itself. The 1971 Andrew Lloyd Webber rock opera has always been a provocative, at-times critical take on Christ's life, that over time became a cult favorite among queer audiences. Musk seemed to have missed that bit of information as well as he chimed in on X with an eyebrow-raised emoji in reply to an X user who wrote, 'Imagine doing this to any other religion' next to Erivo's casting news. Critics with similar complaints flooded Variety's social media post announcing the casting with one user in the replies called Erivo playing Christ 'anti-Christian bigotry' by 'Hollywood.' But Erivo told Billboard, 'Why not?' as she shrugged off naysayers. 'The more yourself you are, the more you are in front of people who don't necessarily understand, the better understanding starts to happen,' she said. As much as she wants to be 'a person you can get positive things from' since 'that is the only way you can balance this stuff,' she couldn't help getting in a jab at Donald Trump for his takeover of the Kennedy Center, where Erivo played some of the most iconic performances of her career. 'I don't know who gains what from that. I hope that it comes back,' she said. 'It's really sad to have to watch this happen to it. The Kennedy Center is supposed to be a space of creativity and art and music for everyone.' That said, assimilating to appease Trump and his 'anti-woke' mob isn't on the star's to-do list, she added. 'I want to encourage people to not decide to just tuck away and start hiding and not being themselves anymore,' she said, 'because that is exactly what they want.'

Vanessa Bryant Seemingly Addresses Claims She's Pregnant in Poignant Instagram Post
Vanessa Bryant has seemingly shut down online speculation regarding an unfounded pregnancy. Vanessa, 43, took to her Instagram Stories on Sunday, June 1, to share a captioned meme of Rihanna bobbing about water with a snorkel mask atop her forehead, carrying a drink and flipping her middle finger. The caption read, 'Me protecting my peace, not pregnant & having fun all summer.' The Story arrived amid online chatter that suggested the widow of NBA legend Kobe Bryant was expecting her fifth child. Us Weekly has reached out to a representative for Vanessa for comment. Vanessa Bryant Debuts 'Extra Special' Statue of Late Husband Kobe and Daughter Gianna Additional Instagram Stories on Sunday evening also seemingly shone a light on Vanessa's current mindset, with a later post sharing candid text from a self development and motivation Instagram account. 'The only way to impress me, is by being a good person,' the post read. 'I don't care what you have, what you wear, where you live, or what you drive. I just have deep respect for people with pure hearts and good intentions.' A third Story featured a second photo of Rihanna, 37, as part of another online meme, accompanied by the caption, 'I'm not mean, I'm just not the one.' Vanessa, who was married to Kobe from 2001 until the athlete's passing in 2020, is mother to four children: Natalia, 22, Bianka, 8, Capri, 5, and Gianna, who also passed away in 2020. The businesswoman and philanthropist offered fans a look into how close her family has remained over time, sharing a video from a winter vacation with Natalia, Bianka and Capri at the end of December 2024. In the footage, the girls were seen hitting the slopes for some skiing and posing in front of Christmas trees as they enjoyed their winter wonderland. Vanessa also shared photos that captured the clan's trip to Disneyland last year. On April 6, Gianna, a rising star in women's basketball, was remembered by the sporting community after Connecticut's UConn Huskies celebrated winning the women's NCAA basketball championship. Vanessa shared an Instagram note about the team's success that mentioned her late daughter at the time.

'When you think you can't, UConn ~ Gianna Bryant 💔❤️.'

Kobe and Gianna were both killed in a January 2020 helicopter crash that also took the lives of seven other people. Kobe was 41 years old and Gianna was 13.
