'All Stars 10's Phoenix doesn't hold back after Ice Spice questions her drag legacy
The first two episodes of RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars 10 introduced us to a new tournament-style format (that we love), and the first six queens in the orange bracket gave us everything from looks to death drops to a brand-new feud heating up the interwebs.
In the first episode, Ice Spice served as a guest judge, and the lip sync for the win between Aja and Irene the Alien was her most popular song, 'Think U The Sh*t (Fart).'

During the judge's critiques, Ice Spice had a few things to say about the performance from Drag Race superstar Phoenix, who has made her first appearance on the show since season 3.
'I hear you're a legendary icon, but tonight I don't think I would have been able to tell with how shy you were,' she said.

Although Phoenix took it in stride on stage and even let Ice Spice play with her fake breasts during Untucked, she took to her Instagram story after the episode aired to tell us how she really felt about the comment.
'I appreciate the love from everyone about the Ice Spice comment,' she wrote, adding that she would 'tell the funny part about this later.'
However, she also said to trust her as she continued, 'My 25 years of experience and decades of contributing to my community is what makes me an ICON! Not 3 minutes on a tv show.'
She went on to say she was 'perfectly fine' not getting 'icon validation' from 'someone who's [sic] 'fame' has come from 1 song about sh*tting and farting.'

And I oop!
To be fair, Ice Spice wasn't the only judge who commented on Phoenix's shyness in the episode, so she wasn't necessarily alone in her overall critique. Questioning her role as a legend in the space, however, was a little off-putting to fans.
As of this writing, Ice Spice has yet to respond to the clapback, and Phoenix has yet to divulge what 'the funny part' about all of this is.

Gracie McGraw marks Pride Month, celebrates identity as 'out and proud queer, bisexual woman'
Gracie McGraw is proud to be who she is. The eldest daughter of country music superstars Tim McGraw and Faith Hill spoke out in an Instagram story post Tuesday, refuting recent headlines that claimed she was coming out after re-sharing posts in support of Pride Month. "Hello all!! It has come to my attention that some tabloids have taken an Instagram story I posted yesterday and have used it as click bait saying I've 'come out,'" the 28-year-old wrote. "Let me be VERY clear here….. I've been an out and proud queer, bisexual woman and I wouldn't have it any other way," she continued. "I have and will always be very vocal about my support of LGBTQIA+ rights and the community, but thank you so much to these tabloids for shedding light that it's pride month!!!" Pride Month has been celebrated every June since at least 1970 and spotlights the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer/questioning, intersex, and asexual communities and their ongoing fight for equal rights. "So many people out there don't have the support, love, or understanding from their families when it comes to their sexuality or gender identity, but just know that there is a beautiful community out there that loves you and cares about and for you!!" Gracie McGraw wrote in her message Tuesday. "Check on your people and keep safe out there. Give love to each other." Gracie McGraw is the oldest of three and has two younger sisters, Maggie McGraw, now 26, and Audrey McGraw, who is 23. Their parents -- Tim McGraw and Hill -- married back in October 1996.

Aaron Donald responded to Jared Verse, challenged him to 'old man retirement workout'
Aaron Donald responded to Jared Verse, challenged him to 'old man retirement workout' "I'm lookin' for you, Verse! Come to the house. I just want to talk." Aaron Donald heard Jared Verse call him out for his workout videos and invited him to his house "I'm lookin' for you, Verse! Come to the house. I just want to talk." AD wants to put him through the "old man retirement workout" 😂 (via aarondonald99/IG) — Cameron DaSilva (@camdasilva) June 4, 2025 Jared Verse grew up watching Aaron Donald and idolized the Los Angeles Rams legend, but he poked the bear in a recent interview with Adam Schefter. He called out Donald for his 'little Instagram posts' of his workouts and bench presses, saying the future Hall of Famer can't keep up with him in the gym. One day after that interview aired, Donald responded. He heard Verse's comments and to the surprise of no one, he didn't back down. Donald posted a video of himself on Instagram working out and invited Verse to his house so they could settle things. 'Somebody put the word out. I'm lookin' for you, Verse!' Donald yelled from his home gym. 'I'm lookin' for you! Come to the house. I just want to talk. I just want to talk. That's it. Nothing much, big dog. Just a little conversation. Put up a little weights, do a little cardio. The old man retirement workout. Put you through it, see what you can do. I just want to talk. Come on. I just want to talk.' These are two of the most competitive human beings on the planet and seeing them go back and forth is nothing short of entertaining. It's all friendly and there's no actual beef between the two stars, but you can bet they want to make the other tap out in the gym. Now we just need Verse to take Donald up on his offer and film this one-on-one battle for the world to see. Follow Rams Wire on X, Facebook and Threads for more coverage!

Meghan Markle shares video of herself and Prince Harry dancing to ‘Baby Mama' song
As Meghan Markle and Prince Harry continue to celebrate their daughter's fourth birthday, Markle returned to Instagram to share a heartwarming video. After sharing photos of herself and Lilibet Diana over the years, and later photos of Lilibet and Harry over the years, Markle shared a video of herself and Harry in the hospital as she prepared to give birth to their daughter in June 2021. The video showed off both Markle and Harry's playful sides as they danced to the once popular 'Baby Mama' song. 'Four years ago today, this also happened,' Markle captioned the June 4 video. 'Both of our children were a week past their due dates … so when spicy food, all that walking, and acupuncture didn't work - there was only one thing left to do!' And that was to dance it out. 'Happy birthday to our beautiful girl! Four years ago today she came into our lives,' Markle captioned an earlier post, 'and each day is brighter and better because of it. Thanks to all of those sending love and celebrating her special day!' The podcast host also wrote of the bond Lilibet, who is named after her great-grandmother Queen Elizabeth II and her grandmother Princess Diana, shares with her father. 'The sweetest bond to watch unfold,' Markle said alongside the photos of Harry and Lili together. 'Daddy's little girl and favorite adventurer.' Markle and Harry welcomed Lili into the word after the couple made the decision to step down as working senior members of the royal family. They, along with their son Archie, lived in California at the time of Lili's birth. Her fourth birthday marks the first time that Markle and Harry have openly shared images of their daughter during that time.
