A$AP Rocky Allegedly Cheating On The Love of His Life Rihanna Set Twitter Ablaze
HipHopWired Featured Video CLOSE Source: Jacopo M. Raule / Getty Nothing spreads faster than a lie or rumor on Twitter, so it should come as no surprise that rumblings of A$AP Rocky cheating on the “love of his life,” Rihanna, have turned the social media world upside down. Days after Vogue dropped its recent cover featuring Rihanna and the golden baby bump, a rumor of A$AP Rocky fumbling the Rihanna bag by allegedly cheating on the Barbadian bombshell has Twitter on fire. Allegedly the Harlem rapper stepped out on his incredibly famous baby mama with shoe designer Amina Muaddi. This rumor gets juicier because Muaddi has designed footwear for Fenty, and Rihanna does rock custom designs from her own label. So where did this rumor that everyone should take with the tiniest grain of salt begi...

Aimee Mann Announces First Solo Art Show
In 2013 my friend Tony Blinken went to work at the White House. He told me he needed art for his walls in his new office and I offered to paint him something. I was going to paint a portrait of Obama, but in a burst of some kind of superstitiousness, I didn’t want to paint a political figure I really believed in, and instead became obsessed with the idea of painting only the worst past presidents. For reference I found a list made by U.S. News & World Report. I didn’t get to everyone on the list, and recently when I started painting again. I included some First Ladies (irrespective of their quality). For the record, Tony declined to have a portrait of Millard Fillmore on his wall, and I can’t say I blame him.
