Let’s roll the tape!
1. Who wears short shorts? (Doechii wears short shorts)
Doechii made her runway debut at Dsquared2’s Milan Fashion Week show, and in true Swamp Princess fashion, she did not arrive quietly.
Emerging from an armored vehicle like a superstar on a mission, she casually tossed aside a wad of cash before strutting down the catwalk in tiny blue denim shorts and a khaki corset coat—while her own song, “Nissan Altima,” blasted through the speakers.
2. Anti-trans lawmaker walks right into his own trap
Wyoming Republicans got a taste of their own legislation—and the irony was impossible to ignore. During a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing, Britt Boril of Casper, Wyoming, began her testimony by addressing committee chair Sen. Tim French (R) as “Madam Chairman.”
When French pushed back, insisting on “Mr. Chairman,” Boril coolly reminded him that lawmakers had just passed a bill stating no one can be forced to use someone’s preferred pronouns.
3. Jessica Gunning filled her trophy case
Out actress Jessica Gunning took home the SAG Award for Outstanding Performance by a Female Actor in a Television Movie or Limited Series for her gripping portrayal of Martha in Baby Reindeer. Her win caps off an impressive awards season haul, which includes an Emmy, Golden Globe, Critics’ Choice Award, and Satellite Award.
4. Epic Oscars throwback: The hills are alive with the sound of Gaga
With this year’s Oscars airing Sunday at 7 p.m. ET on ABC and streaming live on Hulu, we went digging through the Oscars vault and rediscovered this classic. In 2015, Lady Gaga took the stage to honor the 50th anniversary of The Sound of Music with a breathtaking medley of the film’s most beloved songs. It was a career-defining showcase of her vocal versatility, proving that Mother Monster could do it all.
5. Epic Oscars throwback: Cynthia is in a class of her own
Cynthia Erivo’s powerhouse performance of “Stand Up” at the 2020 Academy Awards was nothing short of breathtaking, a vocal and emotional triumph that still resonates—especially in today’s political and social climate. Erivo is set to once again command the Oscars stage tonight, this time opening the show alongside her Wicked costar Ariana Grande in what’s sure to be a dazzling moment of musical magic.
