HipHopWired Featured Video Source: Variety / Getty Box office star Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson stopped by a 7-Eleven convenience store in Hawaii recently where according to him, he used to shoplift as a teenager. “We were evicted from Hawaii in ’87, and after all these years ― I finally got back home to right this wrong,” Dwayne Johnson said, according to Huffington Post. “I finally exorcised this damn chocolate demon that’s been gnawing at me for decades.” The Black Adam star said that he used to steal a king-size Snickers candy bar from the store every day. “The same clerk was there every day and always just turned her head and never busted me,” he wrote on Instagram. Johnson shared a video where he purchased every Snickers bar in the shop and paid for purchases of some excited...
What initially caught my eye was her coat—a sublime wool robe coat complete with a rather practical hood. You could, however, argue that a hood is somewhat redundant in L.A., but that’s neither here nor there. As an aside, I was struck by just how versatile a coat choice hers is. From ‘S Max Mara, an easy-to-wear offshoot of Max Mara‘s mainline collection, such a coat would live quite happily in my wardrobe for a very, very long time. Pairing it with the year’s trouser silhouette to note, puddle pants, this look strikes the perfect balance of being completely and utterly timeless, whilst also appeasing the current fashion mood. Well played, Jolie. While her taupe round-toe court shoes will raise some eyebrows in the industry—it might shock you to...
HipHopWired Featured Video Source: Jim McIsaac / Getty If some folks don’t have nothing else…they have audacity. Longtime radio host Howard Stern took to the airwaves this week to scold media mogul Oprah Winfrey for “showing off” her wealth on Instagram. “It’s f*cking mind blowing when you follow her on Instagram,” Stern said, according to a report from Variety. “You see her estates, her gardens, the people who service her and, you know…She’s got servants and, like, people cooking and it’s fucking wild. She knows how to be rich…She kind of likes to show it off, which is something I’m not comfortable with. I don’t think that people should show off their wealth.” He added that “Oprah’s not embarrassed by her wealth at all” and implied that she lacks self-awareness. However, his co-host...
If there’s one thing I’ve learnt this year, it’s that ‘airport style’ is most definitely a thing. Traditionally, long-haul dressing was all about comfort but nowadays our favourite celebs know that a stylish travel outfit can be just as impactful as a red carpet look. And while you might not be jetting off to the same destinations or events as the celeb pack, it doesn’t mean you can’t still dress to impress on your next flight (or even train journey!). When it comes to nailing travelling in style, there are few things that celebrities always seem to rely on, like a large tote bag, sunglasses, great denim and easy layers. But you might be surprised to know that chic celebrity airport looks also always feature an unpredictable footwear choice: Heels. From h...

Katie Holmes is a pro at putting together casual, comfortable outfits that look great with trainers. And in the late autumn and winter, it’s important to also protect yourself from the chill while walking around outdoors. This week, she showed how it’s done with her chic, low-key outfit. Holmes paired a long, oversized black coat with a white T-shirt, baggy jeans, trainers, and the accessory that’s the subject of this piece: a camel scarf. We’d waxed poetic time and time again about the expensive-looking touch the colour camel has, and that never changes. It retains its popularity for a reason, and the beauty of a cosy scarf is that it adds that luxe look to even the most casual winter outfits on a daily basis. Yes, you can get away with wea...

When deciding what to wear to the airport, I always have two questions in mind. First: Is it easy to wear through the security check? Second: Is it easy to use the restroom in? Things like complicated footwear, jumpsuits, and too-tight skinny trousers are some of the biggest offenders that don’t pass the test, but Amal Clooney is out here throwing caution to the wind and making me deeply reconsider. For us, it’s an outfit that we can see ourselves living in this autumn. As we enter the colder months of the year, we’re on the hunt for any outfit combination that makes getting dressed in the morning easier, and this particular formula is one to follow. Knit dresses are a chic yet insulating way to dress for cooler days, and can be easily styled with all...
Given the fact they spend much of their downtime in exotic climes or on the world’s most pristine beaches, it never fails to amaze us just how well the A-list dress for winter—particularly those who reside in L.A. over New York or London. Recently, we’ve found ourselves becoming increasingly enamoured by the winter-style flair showcased by Hailey Bieber. The model has been pipping influencers and other stars to the post with her on-point attire of late, wearing new designers and cult labels alike. And her winter wares? Well, they’re always just as impressive. Striking the perfect balance between high-end and casual, Bieber’s winter wardrobe consists of many of classic staples: white trainers, camel outerwear, oversized co-ords, cosy cable-knit j...
HipHopWired Featured Video Source: Frank Trapper / Getty Director Quentin Tarantino went on a rant when asked about the content in his films—especially his extrajudicial use of the N-word. In an interview for the HBO Max series, Who’s Talking to Chris Wallace, Quentin Tarantino was indignant. Variety shared some of the interview, “You talk about being the conductor and the audience being the orchestra,” Wallace told Tarantino. “So when people say, ‘Well there’s too much violence in his movies. He uses the N-word too often.’ You say what?” “You should see [something else],” Tarantino answered. “Then see something else. If you have a problem with my movies then they aren’t the movies to go see. Apparently I’m not making them for you.” Where the response begs the question— who is Tarantino ma...
Kate Middleton went to plenty of official state dinners at Buckingham Palace as the Duchess of Cambridge, but yesterday marked her first as Princess of Wales. And she certainly rose to the occasion. This particular banquet was for President Cyril Ramaphosa of South Africa, and Middleton was a sight to behold in a white, cape-style dress by Jenny Packham (a favourite designer of hers for formal occasions), complete with pretty embellishment on the shoulders and neckline. The eye-catching sparkle didn’t stop there, as Middleton, who is said to have received much of Queen Elizabeth’s jewellery upon her passing, paired the dress with the pearl-adorned Queen Mary’s Lover’s Knot tiara and dangling pearl earrings, both of which once belon...
