The mind behind this absolutely incredible hair moment is Thee Stallion’s go-to hair artist, Kellon Deryck. On the process behind those incredible pastel flowers, the stylist said: “I created these vibrant flowers on Megan Thee Stallion’s Barbie inspired look by making flower stencils in multiple sizes to use as a guide, then hand painting using @guytang_mydentity color.”
“I let the color air dry to preserve the brightness, then finished the look with the @guytang_mydentity #MyStardust shine spray to really enhance the vibrancy of the colors and #MyControl hairspray for a flexible, but strong hold.”

Firstly, Thee Stallion’s ’40s-esque hairdo has us lost for words. From the perfectly laid edges to her incredible candy-floss purple, you can colour us obsessed. Next, this lipstick-shaped manicure is our new favourite celeb nail moment: The rapper’s mix of starry and hexagonal motifs in beautiful pinks is a perfectly versatile nail art for any occasion.
The four-time Grammy nominee sported this purple look during her appearance on The Ellen Show, and while her look did a lot of the talking, her actions spoke volumes. In case you didn’t know, the 25-year-old is actually pursuing her bachelor’s degree in Health Administration at Texas Southern University, despite her phenomenal musical success. While on the show, the honour roll student explained her plans for her degree moving forward, “I just watched my grandmother take care of my great-grandmother and it really inspired me to have my own assisted living facility.”
In addition, Thee Stallion took the opportunity to spread her fortune with frontline nurse, Jamelmenique Hoy. Together, Thee Stallion and Ellen surprised Hoy with USD50,000 to help the Texas-based nurse repay her student loans. Now that’s what we call influencing.

Lil Uzi Vert’s new piercing is…bold

Contrary to popular belief, the stone isn’t actually implanted in the rapper’s forehead—rather, it is a piercing. Luis Garcia, the vice president of the Association of Professional Piercers, explained the piercing to Yahoo Life: “It looks like he has what we would call a vertical bridge piercing, as in the bridge of the nose. That would be an actual piercing with a staple shape barbell that enters at one point, exits at another, and then the big diamond attaches to that bar on the front,” says Garcia. “It’s a piercing, while obviously not super common in typical circles, it’s fairly common in piercing circles. …Definitely not with a giant $24 million diamond on it. But it’s something that gets done.”
Fans of the rapper had some truly top-tier comments about the piercing, with one Marvel fan comparing the star to Thanos: “My guy wearing the last infinity stone”.
