Latest pcks
Whatever’s on my mind really.

A peek at illustration inspiring celebrity sexiness, quirky news stories from inherently pornified pop culture, tips, sketchbook and work in progress, reviews and other things of interest; whatever’s on my mind really—which more fool you if you ever take that seriously.

Latest Picks is a sort of mini-blog for daily thoughts and picks. Longer articles, stories & sketches are found in the full-size blog, where indeed Latest Picks are moved when updates to a story make it too large.

Note: Both Latest Picks and Blog are to be retired at the end of September, although both will remain available indefinitely as an archived part of the site. No further updates to past stories will be made.

Nicki Minaj—Spank My Booty

Having surprisingly cancelled the entire North American leg of joint NickiHndrxx Tour with fellow rapper Future.

The rapper has apologised saying she “simply doesn’t have the time to rehearse… to give the level of show I need to give”.

But there are uncomfortable unconfirmed reports of poor ticket sales and her recently released album Queen has despite strong sales and on the whole mediocre to positive reviews—albeit highlighting as much her tribulations and acerbities of late as the music (theguardian.com)—has so far failed to top the US Billboard 200 as expected, languishing in 2nd position behind Travis Scott’s Astroworld resulting in another yet Twitter tirade directed at the rapper and girlfriend Kylie Jenner whom she accused of using baby Stormi to help promote the album and of flogging merchandise and live show discount “bundles”.

Nicki Minaj: “I put my blood sweat & tears in writing a dope album only for Travis Scott to have Kylie Jenner post a tour pass telling ppl to come see her & Stormi.”

Ouch!

The European leg of the tour however will go ahead as planned (independent.co.uk) and the North American dates are set to be rescheduled for May next year.

KYLIE JENNER SWERVES OUT OF NICKI’S LANE AT VMAS … (tmz.com).

The “NOOOOPPPE” being TMZ’s shouted impression of Kylie not giving Nicki’s prospective feud the oxygen for TMZ to … gleefully fan the flames.

Nicki was making her entrance at Radio City Music Hall Monday night, and Kylie was walking in her direction from the other end … when she stopped in her tracks upon seeing Nicki. It’s pretty clear she didn't want a confrontation—’cause she doubled back fast.
