Kim Kardashian Won’t Reveal Her Celebrity Crush, But She Will Discuss Joining The Mile High Club

Last week, Kim Kardashian shared her “man list” of her biggest turn-ons. This week, she dropped by Hailey Bieber‘s “Who’s In My Bathroom?” YouTube series to discuss makeup sex, kissing, and the mile high club.

When asked by the model (and Justin Bieber’s wife) who her current celebrity crush is during a game of “Truth or Shot,” Kardashian responded, “I almost want to take a drink because I kinda want it to come true.” The mystery man doesn’t know about her infatuation with him. “I’m more into privacy these days,” she said before taking a shot.

Bieber also asked her guest whether she prefers angry sex or makeup sex. “Makeup sex,” she quickly answered. “Isn’t that, like, the best? ‘Cause it’s like, you missed each other and it’s passionate.” Later, talk turned to having sex in a plane.

Kardashian — who last dated comedian Pete Davidson — asked Hailey if she’s “ever joined the mile-high club,” to which she replied, “Yes.”

“Samezies,” the mother of four let out — a response that did not surprise Bieber, who said she knew she didn’t need to reciprocate the question. “Why do you not need to ask me that?” a slightly offended Kardashian wondered. “You own a plane,” the youngest daughter of actor Stephen Baldwin reminded her guest. “I thought you were just saying, like, ‘Of course you’re a whore!’” the Skims founder quipped, eliciting giggles from both girls.

It probably wasn’t with Pete. He’s too tall for an airplane (or even a private jet) bathroom. You can watch the video above.

Latto Got Naked For A New Photoshoot But Made Sure That, Like Her Music, It Was ‘Explicit But Tastefully Done’

Latto is the subject of a recent Cosmopolitan profile, and during the interview, she discussed the thought process behind getting naked for the cover photo shoot.

She explained, “My label manager hit me and asked, ‘Are you open to doing this?’ And I said, ‘Yeah, I’m open. It just has to be tastefully done.’ That’s why during the shoot, my eyes are glued to the monitor. My lyrics are vulgar and explicit but tastefully done, at least in my opinion. I wanted the pictures to be as well. Not just boom-bam right in your face, but more like a tease. Like you’re imagining me being fully naked and not really seeing it for real. I like the fantasy aspect to it. I felt like the prettiest girl in the world, like that’s the best I’ve ever looked.”

Of the monitor Latto mentioned, the publication noted, “We placed a screen within eyeshot for Latto so she could see exactly what the photographer was capturing.”

Latto continued, “I’m young right now. I don’t have real responsibilities as far as kids and a husband. I feel like it’s the right time to embrace how my body looks — and before I have kids and wrinkle up, I’m showing it off while I can, boo. Everyone always asks what my parents think about the sexy clothes I wear. My mama is here for it. She loves it! She’s like, ‘Girl, do it now!’ She had me at 15 years old and wishes that she could have flaunted her body before kids. And then she turned around and had my sister at 19. She’s my biggest advocate.”

Everything New On Netflix In July 2023, Including More ‘Bird Box,’ ‘The Witcher,’ And ‘The Karate Kid’ Movies

Netflix takes viewers into the thick of summer in July, where hopefully, power outages across the U.S. will remain as minimal as possible, so the binging can commence in full force. This month, the streaming audience can finally see a followup to Sandra Bullock’s ridiculously viral 2018 apocalyptic film, Bird Box. Two other prominent franchises are returning with new seasons of TV, and that includes more from a slick-as-hell lawyer and a grumpy-as-hades monster hunter. This will be the last time we see Henry Cavill in his Geralt of Rivia wig, and that sad development will mark the end of a The Witcher era.

A pop music documentary is also on the way to your living room for some 1980s flavor, and the Netflix back library is growing increasingly stacked. Additions include the entire collection of The Karate Kid movies, which will come in handy while we await word of the next Cobra Kai return to the dojo.

Here’s everything coming to (and leaving) Netflix in July.

Bird Box Barcelona (film streaming 7/14)

The first Bird Box film brought in such massive viewership that the Sandra Bullock-starring picture retains the third-place position among Netflix original films. Bullock won’t be back for this installment, which obviously takes place in Spain during the early days of the mysterious outbreak. Get ready to watch everyone bust out those blindfolds, and hopefully, the streaming service stays smart and never shows us what those monsters look like because even though the first film did contain a bit of unintentional humor, no one wants to see a flat-out comedy here.

The Witcher Season 3 Volume 2 (Netflix series streaming 7/27)

It’s hard to imagine that Henry Cavill is really on his way out the door as Geralt of Rivia, and Liam Hemsworth will soon pick up the grunting, swashbuckling, potion-wielding monster hunter for a fourth season. Where this franchise goes from there, one can only guess, but thankfully, we should still have Jaskier. In this Season 3 wrap-up, Ciri continues to train as a Witcher while Yennifer is attempting to maneuver around territorial sorcerers who are pressing the buttons to f*ck with everyone. Hate it when that happens.

The Lincoln Lawyer: Season 2 Part 1 (Netflix series streaming 7/6)

The series picked up the same subject matter as the movie, and whaddya know, the show turned into a streaming hit that kept the adventures of Los Angeles’ most talked-about defense attorney. Naturally, Mickey Haller (Manuel Garcia-Rulfo) is still running business out of his Lincoln’s backseat, where he’ll handle just about every case, and if you’ve been missing Neve Campbell from the continuing Scream franchise, you can find her here. Expect Part 2 of this season about a month after this installment.

WHAM! (Netflix documentary streaming 7/5)

Much like The Beastie Boys (only not like them at all), this duo began their journey as high school pals who decided, what the hell, let’s form a band. Soon enough, they became a global sensation, and this documentary promises to stir a few heart strings while looking back at George Michael (RIP) and Andrew Ridgeley’s personal trove of footage along with previously unrevealed discussions from both pop stars.

‘The Beanie Bubble’ Trailer Delivers Greed, Betrayal, And Teeny Tiny Stuffed Bears

For some reason only known to capitalism, there’s been a slew of Wild Business Origin Stories lately. Blackberry, Tetris, and now the faddiest of fads is getting its turn. The Beanie Bubble illustrates the dramatic rise and uncomfortably continued rise of Ty Warner — the guy who would get mad if others got co-credit for building the Beanie Baby empire.

Zach Galifianakis stars as Warner with Elizabeth Banks as his business partner Robbie, Sarah Snook as his wife Sheila, and Geraldine Viswanathan as Maya, a crucial employee. “Maya” is undoubtedly meant to be a stand-in for Lina Trivedi, the woman who wrote the original poems on the Beanie Baby tags and basically invented e-commerce by running the Beanie Baby website to sell directly to customers. There’s an excellent You’re Wrong About episode about the Beanie Baby craze if you want to get all journalistic about it.

Meanwhile, The Beanie Bubble looks like it’s going to go bonkers with it.

Here’s the official synopsis:

“Why did the world suddenly treat stuffed animals like gold? Ty Warner was a frustrated toy salesman until his collaboration with three women grew his masterstroke of an idea into the biggest toy craze in history. “The Beanie Bubble” is an inventive story about what and who we value, and the unsung heroes whose names didn’t appear on the heart-shaped tag. From the married directing duo Kristin Gore (<em>Her</em>, <em>Foxcatcher</em>) and Damian Kulash, Jr. (lead singer of OK Go), and written by Gore, comes one of America’s most outlandish success stories.”

The Apple TV+ movie about false scarcity and half-stuffed stuffies lands in select theaters July 21st, with a streaming debut July 28th.

Wacky Failed AZ Gov Candidate Kari Lake Reportedly ‘Practically Lives’ At Mar-A-Lago These Days

As Donald Trump stares down a seemingly endless parade of legal troubles, one woman has stood dutifully by his side through thick and thin: Kari Lake. According to a new report, the failed Arizona gubernatorial candidate has been a frequent fixture at Mar-a-Lago to the point where it’s basically her second home.

“Kari Lake is there every night … She’s there all the time,”a source told PEOPLE. “There’s a suite there that she practically lives in.”

Granted, Mar-a-Lago is a golf resort. However, due to the Florida heat, it “generally clears out for the summer,” so Lake is mainly there with Trump and his inner circle. On top of aggressively denying Trump’s brand of election denial (Lake continues to insist the Arizona election was stolen), there’s another reason for Lake’s constant presence: She wants to be Trump’s VP.

Via PEOPLE:

Lake’s frequent appearances at Mar-a-Lago come months after Trump officially announced his 2024 campaign for president in November, and after sources told PEOPLE that Lake has been vying for the role of his running mate.

“She is working the deal. She wants something bigger, fast, to compensate for her loss in Arizona,” one source previously said.

Lake isn’t exactly hiding her presence at Mar-a-Lago. She recently tweeted a swimsuit photo of herself wearing an inflatable Trump float while boating off the Florida coast.

While Lake’s presence certainly raises eyebrows, PEOPLE reports that Trump continues to make public appearances at his golf resort during the weekends, and Melania has been seen joining him for dinner. The former president also continues to act as a DJ and personally curates the golf club’s evening music.

Militarie Gun Are Major

Ian Shelton envisioned Militarie Gun as a witness to the absurdity of context collapse. Now, he accepts they’re an example of it. Take “Militarie Gun” itself, originally a goof on an actor’s once-farcical and now disgraced name, and now something that they’re stuck with “for the rest of our lives.” Or, the very moment Shelton realized he could relate to Kanye West in any way whatsoever. The word-of-mouth success that followed Militarie Gun’s 2021 All Roads Lead To The Gun EPs put them on the radar of Roc Nation Management, and when the two parties were in discussion, Shelton was coincidentally watching jeen-yus – which, at least for its first third, is probably the last time Kanye West can be remembered in a sympathetic light. Though Shelton never went to the Roc Nation offices trying to throw the diamond up or spit a verse from “Don’t Pick Up The Phone,” “I’m low key chasing the same guys he was chasing back then,” he laughs. “Which I never thought would be the case.”

And now on the verge of releasing their debut LP Life Under The Gun, as the man once said, Militarie Gun are major. Go to the Roc Nation website and there they are, smack between Miguel and Moneybagg Yo. After linking up with Loma Vista Records in late 2022, they’re also labelmates with Killer Mike, St. Vincent, and Korn. Life Under The Gun already crashed some mid-year album lists two weeks before it actually dropped, a testament to Shelton’s elevation of immediacy above all else. “I don’t care what you do, just do it faster,” he barks on the album’s lead single, setting the course for an album that’s both buffed and buff; the goofball videos for “Do It Faster” and “Very High” are fairly blatant throwbacks to a time when bouncy hardcore acts like CIV could sneak into the Buzz Bin alongside Weezer. “I’ve always been a very impatient person, I want the answers now, I want the result now,” he explains. Not coincidentally, the IRL conversations I’ve had about MLife Under The Gun have led to descriptions like “Guided By Voices with good production” or “swole Joyce Manor.”

The former is pretty much what Shelton envisioned; “I wanted to make a band that sounded like Guided By Voices eight years ago but was not a competent singer,” he admits. By the time Militarie Gun started making headway, he cautiously asked a friend, “Do you ever think this band could be as popular as Fucked Up?” For most of the past 15 years, this was indeed the best-case scenario for any hardcore band hoping to avail themselves of Big Indie’s spoils – i.e., Best New Music, Rolling Stone profiles, opening for the Foo Fighters, late-night TV appearances that couldn’t say the band’s actual name. But for all of the impact of David Comes To Life, Fucked Up were a band whose ambitions recalled The Who as much as Hüsker Dü, oftentimes celebrated as an exception that justified ignoring whatever else was happening in hardcore. They were a unicorn, not one that had listeners and industry types seeking out “the next Fucked Up.”

Meanwhile, Life Under The Gun is something of a heat check for hardcore itself. More specifically, the “Turnstile Effect,” in which the immediate acclaim and long-tail success of GLOW ON has been likened to a small-scale Nevermind – a wave that potentially lifts respected lifers up to the majors as a kind of credibility-based loss leader for the copycats. In other words, will there be Melvins and Meat Puppets to justify the inevitable Candleboxes and Bushes to come?

Though Life Under The Gun is technically a debut LP from a band that’s been releasing music for less than three years, it’s misleading to call it anyone’s introduction to Militarie Gun. “We had all these songs written and demoed for the third time before we ever played a show,” Shelton reveals, and indeed, the album has been completed for about a year and a half. “If we were impatient, we could’ve released All Roads Lead To The Gun earlier and went straight into releasing these songs before we ever started touring, but we knew how good the songs were so it was easy for us to have restraint.”

Prior to his move to Los Angeles, Shelton had been a veteran of Seattle’s hardcore scene and, eventually, a member of the chaotically creative punk institution Self Defense Family. As recently as 2021, Militarie Gun was likely to be viewed as a spinoff of Regional Justice Center, probably the most successful band of its time that could accurately be described as “powerviolence.” RJC took its name from the for-profit prison complex in which Ian’s brother Max had been incarcerated since 2016, yet he describes their music as “emotionally political and not outwardly political”; intended as much to honor the experience of his brother as it was to avoid the didacticism that infested hardcore and really just about every other form of art during the onset of the Trump administration. “It was an era that was fucking bleak to be a part of artistically,” Shelton explains. “It was so introductory in its approach to politics, so robotic, not interesting, regurgitated half-thought ideas.” Regional Justice Center provided catharsis and connection, though as to be expected from a band that plays extremely fast and angry music, it was liable to collapse at any time.

Whether or not Militarie Gun was conceived as something more sustainable than Shelton’s other bands – another goes by the name S.W.A.T., aka “Sex With A Terrorist” – they’ve been buoyed by a concurrent trend of ascendant bands who’ve emerged from hardcore while conducting themselves like a Britpop or power-pop act; play “Never Fucked Up Once” or “My Friends Are Having A Hard Time” on an acoustic and you might have a Lemonheads or Teenage Fanclub song. But ask anyone about Militarie Gun’s way with a hook, and they’ll point to Shelton’s “OOF! OOF!” ad-lib, a sound both gruff and endearing, like getting pummeled by a playful bull mastiff. “I probably had eight songs with it before we played a show and thinking this is kind of a big swing to come in so hard before anyone knew it,” Shelton recalls. It likely became his signature on 2022’s “Pressure Cooker,” a collaboration with lo-fi power-pop wizard Dazy that already feels like genre canon.

Or at least a culmination of trends that date back much farther than Militarie Gun itself. “It took a long way to break down this kind of wall, [and acknowledge] that people who come from hardcore are capable songwriters,” Shelton explains, crediting acts like Angel Du$t and Ceremony for swinging the hammers first. Still, Shelton recognizes that he’s more likely to be considered an elder statesman at this point in his career, or at least he’s willing to act as one. “It took me a really long time to get to where I’m at and if I can save someone the hassle of the same exact things I did, I’d love to do that.” Take his willingness to “interject myself into the creative process” with MSPAINT, the Hattiesburg synth-punk firebrands who will be joining Militarie Gun on the road this fall. In addition to his guest vocals on “Delete It,” Shelton is credited as a co-producer, even if he sees that role as a kind of motivational speaker. “I told them I didn’t think the recordings were good enough and we should do them again together,” he recalls. “And I couldn’t ask for a better result.” That end result was Post-American, an album that’s neck and neck with Life Under The Gun as the most impactful album to emerge from the extended hardcore universe in 2023 – debut or otherwise.

The tougher job is learning how to parlay those managerial skills into Militarie Gun itself. “I’ve demanded enough of everyone’s life where I’m pretty much responsible to make sure they have their bills paid,” he says. “That’s a scary thought.” Indeed, it’s possible that his last day job will have come functioning as an essential worker during the pandemic (i.e., weed delivery guy). While Militarie Gun is striking while the iron’s hot, Shelton is grateful that it’s been a slow, slow burn. “If I was younger and experiencing these things, I would not have been as well adjusted,” he jokes. “I would’ve been an idiot.”

Adele Demanded Sylvester Stallone’s ‘Rocky’ Statue Be Included When She Bought His Home, The Actor Claimed

Adele‘s about to have an eventful summer since she extended her Las Vegas residency. She also reportedly bought the actor Sylvester Stallone‘s Los Angeles mansion last year for $58 million and it came with something quite special: his Rocky statue. In fact, the statue was apparently a critical factor in the deal.

Stallone elaborated the arrangement in a new interview with The Wall Street Journal, revealing that he wanted to take the statue with him but the singer refused. “That’s a no deal. That’s gonna blow the whole deal,” she allegedly said. He gave in and let her keep it, saying, “I like what she’s doing, she’s making it gorgeous.”

Her longtime friend and “Carpool Karaoke” host James Corden recently sang her praises, telling Howard Stern he wasn’t surprised when she got famous. “I couldn’t have been less shocked,” he said. “I couldn’t have been less shocked. That’s how I went up to her — I went up to her because she has the cover of [Bob Dylan’s] ‘Make You Feel My Love’ on that album and I’m always of the feeling of, ‘How can any cover version be better than the original because it couldn’t exist without the original.’ But I think that there’s a couple that come real, real close, like Amy Winehouse’s ‘Valerie,’ James Blake’s ‘A Case Of You,’ and Adele’s ‘Make You Feel My Love’ and it’s extraordinary.”

Orville Peck Was ‘Heartbroken’ To Postpone All Of His Upcoming Tour Dates But Must ‘Replenish My Mind And Body’

Orville Peck embodied the full spectrum of human emotion this week. On Tuesday, June 20, the country artist kicked off the summer leg of his Bronco Tour (supporting his 2022 album of the same name) at The Theater at Madison Square Garden in New York City, but that will be his last show for a while.

On Wednesday, June 21, Peck postponed all scheduled live dates “effective immediately” to prioritize his overall well-being.

Peck posted his vulnerable statement to Instagram:

“Hey y’all,

I am completely heartbroken as I share this news, but I have made the incredibly difficult decision to postpone all of my upcoming shows effective immediately.

This was one of the hardest decisions I’ve ever had to make, but I’ve come to realize that my current mental and physical health won’t allow me to bring you my best. My fans mean the absolute world to me and I am so incredibly thankful to every single person who has bought a ticket to come and see us play, I do not take it for granted. Being on stage is my favourite thing in the world.

But I have to take this time to replenish my mind and body so that I can come back stronger and healthier than before, in order to do what I love for many years to come. I truly hope you can understand.

See you soon and sending all of my love.

Orville.”

Peck received many encouraging and supportive comments. Noah Cyrus wrote, “i love you beyond this world.” Joel McHale added, “Hang in there. Take care of yourself. Take your time and we’re all looking forward to when you want to come back and when you do–it’ll be a barn-burner.”

The likes of Charlie Carver, Dylan Mulvaney, and Dorian Electra also sent their love.

Earlier this year, Peck performed “Cowboys Are Frequently Secretly Fond Of Each Other” at the Hollywood Bowl for Long Story Short: Willie Nelson 90, a sprawling concert celebrating Nelson’s 90th birthday that Uproxx attended. Peck was next scheduled to take his Bronco Tour to Columbus, Ohio on July 25.

Kayleigh McEnany Finally Took A Shot At Trump After He Turned On Her With One Of His Weirdest Insults

Donald Trump has handed out countless insults over the years. Sleepy Joe, Lyin’ Hillary, Low Energy Jeb, etc. Kayleigh “Milktoast” McEnany is not one of his better nicknames, mostly because it’s so weird, but it did the job in that it got under her skin. The former press secretary initially wasn’t bothered by the insult, as she continued to praise Trump. “He’s very good at that,” she said about his ability to connect with his supporters. “In fact, I don’t know if there is anyone in the race that can do it quite like him with a room with voters.”

On Wednesday, McEnany spoke to another Republican candidate in the race to become president, Ron DeSantis, except this one lacks that ability to connect with his supporters and, y’know, act like a normal human being.

Ol’ Milktoast seemingly took a shot at her old boss during in the interview,

“I have this very distinct memory. I was in the Oval Office with Dr. Anthony Fauci in the Situation Room with him. I mean, this man made you think like, your days were numbered, all of our days were numbered, all 323 million of us, you know?” she told DeSantis. “But then I go to Florida. I met you on a tarmac. And you were saying some pretty bullish things about opening the state. I was a bit taken aback because it was such a contrast to kind of the groupthink I was hearing in Washington. But you earned the ire of the left on your COVID response. Now you’re getting attacked from the right there. There were a variety of responses to COVID. Why was yours the right one?”

Another hard-hitting question from Fox News. Trump will never recover.

Trump hasn’t replied to McEnany’s comments, but maybe he’ll learn it’s “milquetoast” by the time he does.

The Future Of ‘El Muerto,’ Bad Bunny’s ‘Spider-Man’ Spin-Off Movie, Is Reportedly Uncertain

In April 2022, it was announced that Bad Bunny would play the lead role in El Muerto, a Spider-Man spin-off movie. The film was set for a January 12, 2024 release, but now its future appears unclear.

Deadline reports that now, Sony Pictures has removed El Muerto from its release schedule. The publication notes, “We’re hearing that the film remains in development, but that between Bad Bunny’s tour schedule and the ongoing WGA strike, it makes finalizing a date complicated.”

Now, The Book Of Clarence is set to take over the January 12 release slot. The Jeymes Samuel-directed and LaKeith Stanfield-starring movie was previously set for a September 22, 2023 release.

IGN previously described the El Muerto character, “In the comics, El Muerto is a super-powered wrestler who has had their mask and abilities passed down through the generations. To become worthy, new wrestlers would need to prove themselves against El Dorado. Juan-Carlos Estrada Sanchez was one of these chosen descendants, but he was unable to fight El Dorado when his father Marcus Estrada presented him. As a result, Marcus sacrificed himself to save his son. Following the tragic death, El Dorado would give Juan-Carlos ten years to become stronger to face him again and earn the right to become El Muerto.”
