Nicki Minaj And Meek Mill Strike A Pose For GQ

September 23, 2015. Leave a Comment

Nicki Minaj and Meek Mill get cozy in a feature for GQ‘s October 2015 issue featuring images shot by Ellen Von Unwerth, an interview and video. This is the couple’s first meaty interview since Meek’s fall out with Drake that erupted after Mill accused Drake of not writing his own verses, including the ones for “Rico,” featured on Mill’s last album. In the q&a not a lot was said on the beef, except that Meek doesn’t regret his comments and Nicki “may not agree with everything he says.”

Post-beef it’s almost shocking how much hate has poured down on these two, mainly from Drake fans whose noses are out of joint because their hero’s credibility as a rapper has been impacted though there are also the usual comments calling out the relationship as a stunt, too.

Without the distraction of fan fury, Meek and Nick are actually a uniquely awesome couple. One could compare them to Beyonce and Jay Z in terms of background and trajectory, but Nicki’s and Meek both had rougher and tougher upbringings, but the bigger deal is that they’re both winning in the rap game thereby setting a new sort of relationship standard, especially in a genre for which there is practically a cement ceiling for female spitters. While male rappers often have multiple women in their lives, they’re either usually r&b singers or women connected with the entertainment industry. How many male rappers with widely popular status are linked with females at the same level? Current era we can’t think of any.

Nicki’s power levels aren’t lost on Meek who in the article says, “People don’t really have a girlfriend that’s doing more than them or the same thing. I like girls that hustle. She a boss. She’s pretty as fuck. Bad as shit. Ambitious. What else do you want?” Which, dang, how can you not appreciate him for that??

Some other highlights from the article:

Nicki thinks they have a normal relationship:  “We’re like any other couple in the hood. Like, if I were to speak to a hundred girls right now about what they go through with their boyfriend, we’d probably have stuff in common.”

Nicki loves kissing Meek: “I love kissing him. I love the way his lips feel.”

They also enjoy good convo, says Nicki: “One of the things that made me want to be with him is we spent so much time talking, and he always made me feel like he was ok with me being me.”

In fact it was a long talk just before Meek went to jail that stole Nicki’s heart: “I remember sitting on my balcony at my house and just being on the phone with him until it started getting dark outside. And I was just like, ‘yo, I’m in trouble.’ I just knew that first day. It was that long conversation. I was like uh-oh.”

Scathing 5,400-word report via The Cut's Tahirah H Scathing 5,400-word report via The Cut's Tahirah Hairston on Kerby Jean-Raymond whose label Pyer Moss appears to no longer be operational. 

Check out an excerpt below. 

Ten years in, Jean-Raymond’s star has only risen. He hangs out with celebrities (Tracee Ellis Ross, Brent Faiyaz), made a cameo on Insecure, and drives flashy cars (a McLaren 720S, an Aston Martin Superleggera, a Porsche GT3 RS). Meanwhile, his brand is nearly nonexistent.

There is no Pyer Moss boutique. The clothing celebrated on the runway was mostly not available to anybody who didn’t have a celebrity stylist to pull it for them, and company insiders complained that quality control was so uneven that at times what was produced was too flawed to be sold. Jean-Raymond sometimes missed deadlines, didn’t always pay bills, started other projects, and alienated allies. He referred to Pyer Moss as an “art project” and seemed reluctant to make practical choices. Among the fashion insiders who had cheered his rise, there has been a growing feeling that he has wasted an opportunity to build something important.

The last straw for many of his early supporters was his couture show in July 2021. Titled “WAT U IZ,” and put on in the U.S. during Paris Couture Week, it was a tribute to the various innovations that Black people have been responsible for, often without credit. The models came down the runway decked out in a jar of peanut butter and a traffic light. A lot of it wasn’t really clothing, much less couture. Even if the professional critics and other members of the fashion press seemed hesitant to publicly express their disappointment, they whispered among each other that he’d lost the plot of his brand.

In sad news, Kering hasn't realized its mistake an In sad news, Kering hasn't realized its mistake and brought back Alessandro Michele (kidding but not really). Instead it's announced the appointment of Sabato De Sarno as Gucci creative director. De Sarno will present his debut runway collection at Milan Women’s Fashion Week in September 2023.

The 39-year-old Sabato De Sarno was raised in Naples, Italy. He began his career at Prada in 2005, moving to Dolce & Gabbana, before joining Valentino in 2009, where he eventually was appointed fashion director of men’s and women’s collections.

De Sarno's resume is no joke, so we look forward to seeing what he brings to the table and will do our best to not hold it against him that he replaced Michele. That's on Kering.
French luxury conglomerate LVMH announced earnings French luxury conglomerate LVMH announced earnings yesterday and noted that Fenty Beauty doubled its revenue in 2022 versus the prior year. In an earnings release the company attribued the growth to "expansion of its distribution network and the success of its launches." 

First launched with LVMH's beauty brand incubator Kendo in 2017, Fenty's growth over the past several years has largely been fueled by global expansion. 

Comnenting on Fenty Beauty's first forray into Asia, CEO Rihanna in 2019 stated on social media, "When I launched @fentybeauty in 2017, it was important to me to make sure it was available globally so everyone had access to it. We are continuing to expand our Fenty Beauty family to Hong Kong, Macau, Seoul and Jeju in September!”

While LVMH didn't provide 2022 Fenty Beauty revenue figures, it announced the beauty brand brought in $573M in revenue in 2018. Forbes in 2021 valued the entire operation as worth $2.8 billion, of which 50% belongs to Rihanna.
The purveyor of consistent heat, Casey Cadwallader The purveyor of consistent heat, Casey Cadwallader's #Mugler fall 2023 runway show in Paris, gave what it's supposed to give. Excellent casting featuring #Ziwe, Amber Valetta, Debra Shaw, Omahyra Mota, Paloma Elsesser, Anok Yai, Dominique Jackson, Maria Carla and more! Badass energy, bold pieces in leather, lace and some denim.

We think Thierry Mugler would be pleased✨
