Taylor Swift Sends Cardi B Flowers After 'Bodak Yellow' Hits No. 1 on Hot 100

Cardi B's "Bodak Yellow" may have dethroned Taylor Swift's "Look What You Made Me Do" from the No. 1 spot on the Billboard Hot 100 (dated Oct. 7), but there's no bad blood between these two. The rapper posted a glimpse at a big bouquet of pink flowers sent to her by Swift on Instagram Tuesday night (Sept. 26).

"Sooo beautiful and lovely," Cardi wrote. "Thank you @taylorswift for the flowers ... and I freaking love your music."

Reacting to the news that she topped the pop star on the Hot 100 on Monday, she joked, "Like, damn, why'd it have to be Taylor Swift? I like her, I like that damn song" -- and she proved it by singing a few seconds of "Look" chorus.

"Look What You Made Me Do" held the No. 1 position on the chart for three weeks before "Bodak Yellow" took over. Swift's debut track from Reputation now sits at No. 3, behind Cardi's single and Post Malone's "Rockstar," featuring 21 Savage.

Kris Jenner's First Response to Kylie's Alleged Pregnancy Was Pretty Cryptic

The Kardashian-Jenner matriarch spoke out on the rumors for the first time on Saturday.

Kylie Jenner dominated social media on Friday, Sept. 22 when various outlets reported the 20-year-old was expecting her first child with boyfriend Travis Scott. Kylie, the youngest of the Kardashian-Jenner clan, has yet to confirm, but matriarch Kris Jenner commented on the rumors for the first time on Saturday. While attending Milan Fashion Week in support of daughter Kendall Jenner, who was walking in the shows, Kris reportedly told The Hollywood Reporter the news came as surprise to her.

"It wouldn't be the family if something didn't happen every single day," she said, choosing neither to confirm nor deny.

Kris, who was attending the Bottega Veneta show at the time, also opened up about the rumors to The Cut:

"[Kylie's] not confirmed anything," she said. "I think it's kind of wild that everyone is just assuming that that's just happening."

This statement, of course, has echoes of denial without outright claiming the rumors are false. This is far from the first time pregnancy rumors have haunted Kylie, but according to some sources, the makeup guru and Scott have confirmed to friends that this is real.

It's possible Kris' noncommittal response was crafted carefully to ensure Kylie is able to make the official announcement herself, on her own terms.

On Friday, the Keeping Up With the Kardashians star shared pointed fan art to Instagram, some fans assuming it was her way of telling the world she was expecting a baby girl:

TMZ first broke the news, while People ultimately confirmed the pregnancy was an "unexpected but completely amazing turn of events that she could not be more excited or thrilled about." Kylie, 20, and Scott, 25, have been together since April.

Jessie J announces new album

Jessie J is back, and she’s bringing with her a new album called ‘ROSE’. That stands for ‘Realisations, Obsessions, Sex and Empowerment’, if you were wondering. It’s also named after her mother. And roses.

In a video on Instagram announcing the new release, she said: “My mother is called Rose, she gave me the gift of life. A rose is at its most beautiful when budding. I rose above the pain. We give roses or a single rose as a gift with so many different feelings. This is my gift to you. For each letter there is a word and for each word there’s a song I will share with you”.

As for why she’s been gone for so long since her last record, she explained: “I didn’t want to make music anymore. Then I tried to stop and I didn’t know how to because it’s impossible to walk away from true love. Art, emotion, lyrics, music is what I need to survive. I don’t do this because I want to do it, I do it because I have to. I feel everything so deeply. It’s a blessing and a curse and I lost my passion to create. To draw a line between business and art. I’d fallen into darkness and allowed myself to be led by fear. The fear was keeping other people happy who didn’t ever care”.

The album will be released in 2018

Ezra Miller Confirms No Flash Costume Ring in Justice League

When you’re the fastest man alive, you have to keep your costume in an environment that is both close by and easy to put on right when you need it. As a result, Barry Allen created his costume ring, which holds his entire suit inside it and can be popped open for easy access. For the upcoming Justice League movie, however, Barry won’t be sporting the ring.

“I can confirm, spoiler alert, his suit does not pop out of his ring [in the movie],” star Ezra Miller tells EW. “Things have to progress, you know? Original Barry Allen was clearly an incredibly, incredibly clever scientist. We acknowledge and respect that.

Miller adds, playfully, “We want to apologize to the fans who are mad about the ring thing.”

The actor went on to say that fans shouldn’t worry about the ring so much, as there are plenty of other things in the works for the character.

“I know the ring is the coolest thing about the DC universe. It was a little hard for us to sell in this version of this universe right now. Bear with us! There’s gonna be other cool things.”

Ben Affleck Says Batman is Finding Hope Again in Justice League

Ezra Miller revealed earlier this week that The Flash will not have a costume ring in the Justice League movie, and now Ben Affleck and Gal Gadot have talked more about Batman and Wonder Woman in the highly-anticipated film as well. Talking to US Weekly, Affleck and Gadot addressed how their characters have changed since we last saw them.

“She’s grown up — it’s been a century, after all! She’ll bring her specific qualities to a group dynamic, and she understands the enemy better than anyone else,” Gadot said about Wonder Woman, while Affleck added, “In Batman v Superman, he was at the end of his rope. But in Justice League he’s finding hope again. He has to open up and play well with others. He knows he needs them.”

Affleck said that Batman is the ultimate loner, “but he’s really trying to make it work and develop a good relationship with all of them. He might be a mentor to The Flash.”

And since they fought together in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, what is the dynamic now between Batman and Wonder Woman? “Since they’ve fought together, they know each other’s strengths. They also understand the hope Superman stood for, that was lost [when he died], so they feel that more than the others,” Gadot said.
