Megan Thee Stallion Addresses Rumored Met Gala Ban
Megan Thee Stallion responded to rumors that a quick selfie resulted in her being banned from the Met Gala. Speaking with PEOPLE Magazine, the 30-year-old rapper addressed online claims that a video she recorded at the notoriously private event rubbed Anna Wintour, chair of the charity ball, the wrong way.
'No. We're gonna dead these rumors right now, okay? People are like, 'Oh my God, Megan, you got banned from the Met Gala. No, I didn't, babe. Like that's not true,' she explained. 'Y'all made that up and ran with it. They love making [stuff up]. Anna [Wintour] loves me, babe. That's why my phone was out.'
In the video in question, the 'Cocky Af' rapper whipped out her 'Hottie Cam' and shared the clip of herself, Angel Reese, and Doechii at the glamorous event eating.
For the affair, the Grammy-winner wore a custom Michael Kors floral lace gown.
'Artisans spent 670 hours embroidering over 75,000 crystals in three sizes, all sewn individually by hand,' described the designer on Instagram. 'She accompanied the look with an optic white faux fur coat complete with a white-and-silver sequin lining. For inspiration, Michael and Megan were intrigued by strong women like Josephine Baker and Eartha Kitt, whose approach to fashion was full of swagger, drama and glamour.'
'I wear at least 10-pound wigs all the time,' she detailed to PEOPLE about her red-tinted updo. 'I put a lot of bundles in my hair, so my neck is pretty strong.'
'I'm surprised [my neck] doesn't have abs, but yeah. My hair was definitely light work. That was lightweight,' the 'Body' performer continued. 'That was a regular day.'

Nara and Lucky Blue Smith Are Expecting Another Baby—Less Than a Year After Saying They Were ‘Done'
Model and content creator Nara Smith first crossed paths with fellow IMG model Lucky Blue Smith in 2019. Within a year, the two had quietly tied the knot, started a family, and begun building the life that would later turn them into one of TikTok's most recognizable couples. While they've kept many details of their personal lives private, both have occasionally opened up online or in interviews about their relationship, family life, and being in the public eye. Since their wedding in 2020, they've welcomed three children together and amassed a massive following across social media—largely due to Nara's cooking-from-scratch videos, often shot in their home kitchen. Below, a full timeline of their relationship so far. Nara and Lucky met during Milan Fashion Week while both were working as models. Shortly after, Lucky initiated contact by messaging Nara on Instagram. According to the couple, they moved from texting to a seven-hour phone call—and have spoken daily ever since. 'There hasn't been a day since that day that we've not been talking,' Nara shared in an April 2025 Vogue interview. 'I messaged Nara on Instagram, we started texting a little bit, I was very slow at texting,' Lucky revealed in the interview. 'I like to take my time with what I'm going to say.' Nara quipped, 'Five business days?' That fall, they made their relationship public on Instagram. Lucky reportedly proposed to Nara in 2019. Nara later revealed she developed a crush on Lucky years earlier after seeing him appear on The Ellen DeGeneres Show. 'After we got married I was thinking about our journey and realized that at 15 I saw an Ellen interview with Lucky and had a crush on him but then forgot about it until later 😭,' she wrote in a December 2024 Instagram post. Nara and Lucky got married in a small beach ceremony in California. Nara shared a video from the day captioned, 'I married my best friend today.' The couple welcomed their first daughter, Rumble Honey Smith. Nara shared the news on Instagram with the caption, 'little baby angel Rumble Honey 10/7/20.' Nara gave birth to their second child, a son named Slim Easy. For his birthday the following year, she posted a video of a homemade donut tower to mark the occasion, writing, 'Can't believe how quickly time flies and how I've got a 2-year-old best friend now.' Their third child, daughter Whimsy Lou, was born. Nara announced her arrival on April 11 with a short video captioned, 'Our little angel has arrived!' The couple said they are not planning to have more children. 'Yep, I'm done,' Nara said in a GQ video, echoing Lucky's sentiment. They explained that while they originally envisioned a larger family, three children now feels like the right number. Nara and Lucky attended the Ralph Lauren Spring 2025 show in the Hamptons as part of New York Fashion Week. Lucky walked the runway, and the couple shared a few moments on camera together. Around the same time, they revealed plans to move to the East Coast, explaining in a TikTok video that they're hoping to settle somewhere quieter with more space for gardening and raising their family. Nara posted a throwback clip of Lucky's 2019 proposal to mark their five-year engagement anniversary. In the caption, she reflected on how their life has unfolded since, writing, 'I wish I could tell 18-year-old me just how beautiful life would become.' Nara and Lucky revealed they are expecting their fourth child. In a reel posted to Instagram and TikTok, Nara approached Lucky in a flowing cream blouse and skirt before gently cradling her growing baby bump. Lucky placed a hand on her stomach and kissed it as they smiled toward the camera. 'Our little surprise,' she wrote in the caption, adding 'baby 4 loading...' over the video. The announcement came nearly a year after the couple said they were done having children. They've yet to share how far along Nara is or the baby's gender. This story will be updated.

Live Wire: Two Northampton music series return in time for summer
As the weather gets warmer and the days get longer, we continue to look at places where outdoor music goes into full bloom. This week, we highlight two relatively newer opportunities to experience live music alfresco, but both have definitely solidified into annual programs that many people look forward to. Occurring just about two blocks away from each other, Northampton's Summer on Strong music series and its sister Bands on Brewster series have become mainstays of the city's vibrant summer music scene. Summer on Strong is held on Strong Avenue, which gets closed off to regular traffic during the summer season. This creates a pedestrian-only outdoor café area where guests can purchase food and drink from vendors such as Progression Brewing, Familiars, Eastside Grill, Mulino's and Homestead. Other nearby venues include Fitzwilly's, The Dirty Truth, The Tunnel Bar, Moshi Moshi and Local Burger. The idea for the series began in 2021 and grew out of the lack of indoor options during the pandemic. The series runs Thursday through Sunday each week. Here is a rundown of what to expect this month: On June 12, Vernon David and Rob Fontana take the stage, with Ryan Hollander playing on June 13. The Dan Thomas Trio provides June 14's entertainment, with the Green Street Trio winding up the week on June 15, as they do each Sunday of the series. Tobey Sol Laroche kicks off the following week on June 19, followed by Bailey Hayes on June 20 and the Ian Behrstock Trio on June 21. The month ends with Nate Martel on June 26, Tom Walz on June 27, and the Jimmy Gavagan Trio on June 28. All shows run from 5-8 p.m, Just a few blocks away on the west side of town, Bands on Brewster is a series where bands play in the little courtyard set up between the Northampton Brewery and the E. John Gare Parking Garage. Shows run each Thursday from 6-8 p.m. This series began in 2023 and continues to be successful. The schedule this summer runs as follows: June 12: Norma Dream; June 19: Wallace Field and Brittany Brideau; June 26: Avery Joi; July 3: The Greys; July 10: Simple Friend, Ribboncandy and King Radio; July 17: Hannah Mohan and Stefan Weiner; July 24: Lucia Dostal; July 31: The Hendersons; Aug. 7: Temporary Friends, Jeff Coyne; Aug 14: Gold Dust Aug. 21: Ruby Lou; and Aug. 28: Prewn. All shows are weather dependent. For updates on rain delays or cancellations, follow @nohoarts on Instagram — updates will be posted by 10 a.m. the day of each show.
