SEE A SNEAK PEEK OF THE RAPPER'S 'WILD 'N OUT' APPEARANCE NOW! There's no love lost between  Nicki Minaj and  Remy Ma  ( hello, "ShETHER "). And their infamous beef is going straight to the  Nick Cannon Presents: Wild 'N Out  stage. In a sneak peek from this week's episode, Remy plays a rousing round of "Rest in Peace," during which a member of the WNO  crew is forced to give a funny eulogy for a random celebrity (whose name appears on a tombstone). And yep,obviously conveniently, Nicki is the subject.

First date jitters be damned. Undressed , the brand-new series coming to MTV on August 16, will feature two strangers becoming acquainted with one another -- with a sexy twist. Mere minutes after exchanging formalities, the duo will be instructed to remove their clothes and answer questions/perform challenges in order to test their compatibility. It's time to strip -- and get  really  real.

      SINCE  giving birth to twins Ella and Alexander in June,   Amal Clooney  has been keeping a low profile. The new mother decamped the family from the US to Lake Como, Italy, for the summer, and has only been spotted leaving the holiday home for a handful of dinner During a recent parents-only evening at restaurant Il Gatto Nero, where the Clooneys were joined by Amal’s mother Baria Alamuddin, the human-rights attorney was photographed wearing a beige-and-black striped, strapless jumpsuit with shoulder-grazing tasseled earrings and a snakeskin clutch bag. A monochromatic colour palette is one the businesswoman knows well – her professional wardrobe leans on black-and-white tailoring flecked with red accents, often a postbox-red lip. There was nothing back-to-work about her dinner date ensemble, however. The first-time mother looked glowing, glamorous and totally at ease. Just like monochrome, motherhood suits Clooney down to a tee.  

      ZENDAYA attended  Variety’s  Power of Young Hollywood event last night wearing pink-and-red sequinned Vivetta co-ords. With voluminous curls and glowing make-up, the star, in her disco pyjamas, looked like a Seventies siren – ready to boogie on down, or just raise a glass with her celebrity peers. The Seventies makeover chimes with the August cover of  Variety,  which sees Zendaya pose in rainbow-hued Diane von Furstenberg sequins. Same curly ‘do, same dewy glow, same dance-floor vibes. Both the  Variety  cover and her party look were honed by the blogger's collaborator, Law Roach. The stylist to the stars – he’s the man behind  Celine Dion’s couture transformation  – posted pictures of Zendaya’s magazine cover with the hashtag #fLAWless. How fabulous. The 20-year-old's decision to steer clear of the crop tops and mini-skirts of her fellow party-goers, was a welcome reminder of the actual power of young Hollywood: to be different

CRESSIDA BONAS has spoken of her frustration at being pigeonholed as  Prince Harry’s  former girlfriend, when she is trying to forge an acting career. MISS VOGUE VIDEO11 Mar 2015 Bonas, who is currently playing Sonia Brownwell, the literary editor and second wife of George Orwell, in the London production of  Mrs Orwell , has said that people are “very quick” to put her in a box. When asked by Radio 4  Woman’s Hour interviewer Emma Barnett whether the publicity she received when dating Prince Harry gave her an insight into "being defined by a much more famous man", Bonas said the following: “I think it’s that thing of being pigeonholed. Especially in this country, I find people are very quick to put you in a box or put you in a corner and think ‘oh well you’re that so you must be that so you must be this "

      THE  sexual assault case brought by Taylor Swift against radio DJ David Mueller commenced yesterday, with the superstar's lawyer, J Douglas Baldridge, heralding his client's bravery for taking a stand. “Today Ms Swift is taking a stand for all women," he said in an opening statement, reports  US Weekly .  "She has been in tens of thousands of meet-and-greets, including going out in the crowds, and she never had this happen. If a person cannot stand up and serve as an example to other young women that have been sexually assaulted, then who can?” The case focuses on a 2013 concert at which Swift claims Mueller -  as per Swift's deposition last October  - "took his hand and put it up my dress and grabbed onto my ass cheek" when the pair met backstage. Mueller denied any wrongdoing and promptly sued Swift for slander after the event, claiming that he was fired from his job at KYGO radio after her team informed his bosses of the event. At the time,

      BRITISH couture brand Ralph and Russo has shared its excitement about showing its first-ever ready-to-wear collection at London Fashion Week. The brand, headed up by Michael Russo and Tamara Ralph, is usually a regular on the Paris Couture Fashion Week schedule, but will bring its inimitable signature to the capital where it is based come September 15. “With London being a cosmopolitan hub, we couldn’t think of a better place to launch our first ready-to-wear offering," said Russo today.
