everywhere right now: Platform shoes. As a person who enjoys the goth subculture and looking like the fifth member of KISS, seeing platforms take center stage as the must-have shoe of the season is a welcome shift in the sartorial winds.

Kanye West may be dropping out of major events like the Grammys and this year’s Coachella, but he still seems to be staying busy! The “Jail” rapper (who just won a best rap song gramophone for that track!) was spotted out in Beverly Hills Monday wearing a black hoodie sweatshirt over a black t-shirt and black jeans, also sporting his signature Balenciaga croc boots. In other photos, the rapper appeared to be congregating with members of his team at a construction site, so although he’s cutting himself out of major events, he may just be continuing to plan major events of his own!

Lil Nas X put on quite the performance at the 2022 Grammy Awards but unfortunately walked away empty-handed.

Paramount+. That’s up, barely, from last year’s 8.8 million viewers.Sunday’s Grammycast featured big wins for Olivia Rodrigo, Sonic Silk and Jon Batiste — and an X-rated stunt from Lil Nas X that left little to the imagination, both for those in the audience at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas and at home.

Kanye «Ye» West will no longer be headlining the Coachella Music Festival. The 44-year-old GRAMMY-winning musician has pulled out of both the April 17 and April 24 dates of the Indio, California, event, according to multiple reports.TMZ was first to report the news.West has yet to publicly speak out about his decision for backing out, but he was scheduled to headline along with Billie Eilish and Harry Styles at the event.

Dua Lipa and Megan Thee Stallion have gotten super close since collaborating on their new song, “Sweetest Pie.” So, why not reference another iconic music duo while presenting an award at the GRAMMYs?At the ceremony on Sunday, April 3, the duo--who are both previous winners of the GRAMMY for Best New Artist--presented Olivia Rodrigo wiith the honor for 2022. As they announced the nominees for the evening, the musicians threw it back to 1998 to reference an iconic moment between Mariah Carey and Whitney Houston.Megan and Dua were wearing matching Versace ensembles, which led to the “WAP” rapper saying, “Not you stealing my look.”“I was told I had the exclusive,” Lipa replied. “I’m going to have to have a talk with Donatella.”That’s when the famous Italian fashion designer emerged from the crowd to work her magic on the dresses.“You know what? Let’s do this,” she told the artists, transforming the ensembles and leaving Dua with a mini skirt and Megan in a thigh-high midi slit, saving them from a fashion faux pas.J Balvin and Valentina Ferrer exude style on the 2022 Grammy red carpetThese are all the Latin nominees and winners at the 2022 Grammy Awards (Updating Live)Kanye West & Olivia Rodrigo could make Grammy historyThe bit was a call-back to a moment from the 1998 Grammy Awards, where Mariah and Whitney presented together in matching Vera Wang wrap dresses.

Amber Dowling The return to in-person award shows continues to dominate Twitter. The Trevor Noah-hosted Grammy Awards on CBS easily topped Variety’s Trending TV chart for the week of March 28 to April 3, pulling in more than 56.9 million engagements.That number toppled last week’s history-making Oscars broadcast on ABC, which until now was the highest that Variety’s Trending chart has seen since its inception.

Olivia Rodrigo is shining light on the importance of inclusion, attending the red carpet of the 2022 Grammy Awards with a sign language interpreter on Sunday night.Fans of the 19-year-old singer praised her for bringing an ASL interpreter to her interviews, including ‘Coda’ star Marlee Matlin, who showed her appreciation for Olivia’s actions. “Thank you ⁦@oliviarodrigo for having an ASL interpreter with you on the red carpet! You ROCK!” she wrote.Olivia had a successful night at the Grammys, performing during the ceremony and taking home three awards out of seven nominations, for Best New Artist, Best Pop Vocal Album and Pop Solo Performance for her hit ‘Drivers License.’The singer did several interviews after receiving her awards, sharing her excitement and posing with the trophies.

Three Grammy awards is a lot to juggle in your arms without one falling over – just ask Olivia Rodrigo!

The 64th annual Grammy Awards brought together the buzziest talent in the music biz, including BTS, Doja Cat and Questlove, on Sunday for a star-studded live and in-person ceremony in Las Vegas. However, unlike other awards ceremonies that have seen ratings rebound this year, the Grammys matched 2021’s all-time lows.

Cardi B was forced to deactivate her Twitter account right before the 2022 Grammy Awards, after some of her fans online showed disappointment, thinking the iconic rapper would be attending the red carpet and the ceremony, as she was nominated for her song ‘Up’ in the category of best rap performance.Fans of the artist claimed that Cardi led them to believe she would attend the televised show on Sunday in Las Vegas.

Kanye West has pulled out of his headline performance at this year’s Coachella festival, according to reports.The rapper and producer was scheduled to headline the closing night of the two-weekend event, which takes place April 15-17 and April 22-24, but according to TMZ and Variety this will no longer be the case.It’s not been made clear as to why West has cancelled his appearance at the California festival, but it’s also been reported that Travis Scott was set to perform alongside West, and he too will now no longer appear.NME has reached out to Coachella and representatives for West for comment.The news follows a petition that was launched by fans last month to remove West from the festival’s line-up, which currently has almost 50,000 signatures.The Change.org petition was launched on March 17 by a user with the alias Kim Pete, following West’s suspension on Instagram for his post about Trevor Noah which contained racial slurs.

almost went without a hitch. But, alas.As is the tradition at the Grammys, Olivia posed with her three trophies backstage, and let’s just say juggling them all in her arms was probably a little bit more difficult than she had anticipated.

Stepping away. Kanye West will not perform at Coachella after all, multiple reports confirm.
