NBA star Klay Thompson and Grammy-winning rapper Megan Thee Stallion made their relationship official at the Pete & Thomas Foundation Gala in New York City, marking their first public appearance together.
The couple arrived in coordinated black outfits, with Megan wearing a stunning black gown and Thompson donning a classic tuxedo, drawing widespread attention on the black carpet.
The Dallas Mavericks guard, 31, and Megan, real name Megan Pete, first sparked dating rumors earlier this year when a viral bikini photo showed Thompson in the background. Shortly after, the speculation was confirmed when Thompson posted a vacation photo dump from the Bahamas that featured the couple holding hands and sharing intimate moments.
Prior to the gala, the pair were seen enjoying dinner at Carbone in NYC, fueling buzz ahead of their red carpet appearance. The Pete & Thomas Foundation, launched by Megan in memory of her parents, held its annual fundraising event to support underserved communities—making it a meaningful setting for the duo's debut as a couple.

With their stylish debut and growing social media presence, Klay Thompson and Megan Thee Stallion are poised to be one of 2025's most talked-about celebrity romances.

Lady Gaga takes a tumble mid-performance, recovers smoothly and resumes without missing beat

Lady Gaga experienced a fall during her Las Vegas concert over the weekend but handled the mishap with remarkable professionalism, earning praise from fans. The incident took place Saturday night, at what seemed to be the starting of her performance of 'Vanish Into You' at the T-Mobile Arena as part of her ongoing Mayhem Ball tour. According to fan-shot footage circulating on social media, the mishap began when one of Gaga's cameramen slipped side-stage as they were making their way to the main stage. A nearby security guard quickly intervened, catching the crew member and preventing further disruption. Gaga, maintaining composure, adjusted the camera before continuing her performance. However, moments later, she stumbled herself. "into the night we... fall" and she did 😭 — Gaga Crave 🌷 (@AMENARTPOP) July 21, 2025 As the Grammy-winning artist sang the line 'Into the night, we…,' she momentarily lost her balance but quickly recovered. Yet, before finishing the line with the word 'fly,' Gaga fell again — this time landing hard on her side. Despite the impact, she was assisted to her feet and resumed the performance without missing a beat. The incident sparked conversation online, with one user commenting, 'She ate s–t bad,' while others speculated whether a security guard had accidentally stepped on her cape. 'The cape HAS to go,' a fan wrote on X (formerly Twitter), referencing the possible cause of her fall. Many fans applauded the pop star's quick recovery and unwavering professionalism, noting she 'didn't miss a beat' even after the dramatic spill. Lady Gaga, who launched her months-long international tour on July 16, is scheduled to conclude the tour in Japan in January. Her fall follows other recent on-stage mishaps involving major pop stars — Beyoncé, who was recently left suspended in midair due to a technical issue, and Katy Perry, who experienced multiple stage hazards during performances in Australia.

Malala's a gym bro now?

Malala Yousafzai is no stranger to the spotlight. Since she first made international headlines at age 15, the Nobel Peace Prize-winning activist has been a symbol of resistance, education, and resilience. But in a recent Instagram post, Malala offered a more personal portrait of herself - one that goes beyond headlines. In a heartfelt caption accompanying a childhood photo, Malala wrote on Monday, 'If you did a school project on me, you probably know me as the 15-year-old who was shot by the Taliban for standing up for girls' right to education. That was 13 years ago. A lot has changed since then, and some things have stayed the same, so here's a reintroduction to who I am today.' She began by describing her roots in Pakistan, 'which is known for its beautiful mountains and rivers,' before tracing her journey to Oxford University. 'I made so many friends, had (a bit too much) fun and learned about myself. It's also where I struggled with my mental health, experiencing panic attacks for the first time. Going to therapy really helped me,' said Malala of her time in college. Shortly after graduation, she married Asser Malik, who she said 'makes me smile every day.' Offering a glimpse into her personality and quirk, Malala shared,'In addition to reading and learning new languages, I love working out and playing competitive sports.' 'Asser calls me a gym bro,' she quipped. 'I love travelling but I'm not great at trip prep. I throw my clothes in a suitcase ten minutes before the airport and always forget something important. I love trying new cuisine and restaurants. However, I can't cook and my fridge is filled with takeout boxes.' Malala's humanitarian work comprises a big part of her life. 'I spend most of my time working on girls' education issues around the world, in countries like Afghanistan, Brazil, Nigeria and Pakistan.' The post concluded with a message of hope and continuity: 'My life is nothing like I imagined it would be. The girl in this photo wanted to be a car mechanic. But my hope to see every girl in school, able to pursue her dreams and choose her own future, will never change. To the new faces and to those who've been here from the start: thank you for being here.' Have something to add to the story? Share it in the comments below.

LeBron James deepens Drake feud with Tyler, the Creator cameo

The rumored fallout between LeBron James and rapper Drake has taken another public turn—this time through a music video. Once close friends, the NBA superstar and Canadian rapper now appear increasingly distant, with fans dissecting each new move for hidden meaning. On July 21, LeBron appeared in Tyler, the Creator's new music video "Stop Playing With Me," dancing alongside longtime associate Maverick Carter and rap duo Clipse—Pusha T and Malice. Given Clipse's long-standing tension with Drake, their inclusion instantly raised eyebrows. LeBron's own Instagram caption, 'STOP FKN PLAYING WITH ME!!!!' only added fuel to the fire. This comes after LeBron publicly supported Kendrick Lamar during his explosive 'Pop Out' concert in 2024, where Lamar performed 'Not Like Us,' a direct diss toward Drake. Since then, Drake has unfollowed LeBron on Instagram, rewritten lyrics removing references to him, and reportedly covered up a LeBron-themed tattoo with one honoring NBA star Shai Gilgeous-Alexander. Drake further addressed the tension during his performance at the 2025 Wireless Festival, rapping, 'I saw bro in the Pop Out with them but been distant since 'Headlines',' signaling a clear shift in their relationship. While Tyler, the Creator's visuals are often playful, the timing and cast of this video have led fans to believe this wasn't just a random cameo. Online comments were split—some mocking LeBron for siding with Drake's rivals, others urging reconciliation between the two icons. Whether intentional or not, LeBron's move is the latest twist in a celebrity feud that continues to capture headlines—and the internet's attention.
