Taylor Swift jokingly references infamous Kanye West VMA's interruption during Era's tour
Taylor Swift appeared to jokingly reference the infamous moment Kanye West interrupted her VMAs speech back in 2009 during her recent Eras tour show. The 33-year-old pop star performed four shows at the 65,000-capacity Foro Sol in Mexico City, and during the piano moment for the ballad 'Champagne Problems,' the crowd showed their love for Swift by repeatedly chanting her name on Sunday night (August 27). In clips circulating online, Swift can be heard saying in response: “It’s the best way to be interrupted, by the way, just people chanting your name. “It’s really the only way to be interrupted… and I would know.” @sussan_mourad @Taylor Swift jokes about Kanye West interrupting her MTV VMAs speech at Eras Tour Mexico City! 😆🤭 #taylorswift #taylorswifterastour #erastour #taylorswift #tserastour #kanyewest #ye #taylorandkanye #erastourmexicocity #tserastourmexicocity #mexicocityerastour #celebritynews #entertainmentnews #taylorvmas #kanyeandtaylor #sussanmourad It appears the 'Anti-Hero' singer is referring to when she won Best Video by a Female Artist at the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards, for 'You Belong With Me.' But upon starting her acceptance speech, West - also known as Ye - stormed the stage and interrupted Swift by grabbing the microphone from her. “Imma let you finish, but Beyoncé had one of the best videos of all time! One of the best videos of all time!" he said, referring to her 'Single Ladies' music video. This instantly became a meme and was the start of Swift and West's feud which inspired different songs over the years. One example of this is Swift's song called 'This Is Why We Can't Have Nice Things,' from the 2017 album 'reputation' which is rumoured to be about West. On the album, Swift sings "And here's to you / 'Cause forgiveness is a nice thing to do,'" before she laughed at the idea and confessed, "I can't even say it with a straight face." It was reported that when Swift sang this song on the Eras Tour back in July as part of the surprise acoustic set in the show, she couldn't keep in her laughter, taking a momentary pause before singing the rest of the track.

Beauty pageant winner claims title wearing raw meat in protest to being objectified
The winner of Miss BumBum 2023 has left fans shocked after turning up to claim her title dressed in an outfit made of raw meat to protest her being “seen as a piece of meat”. Contestant, Lari Sumpani, 24, was crowned in the first place, with Sabrina Rabanne, the runner-up, and Rafaela Dias taking third place. The final presentation of the beauty pageant took place on 18 August in São Paulo, Brazil. Things took a turn towards the end of the show, as Lari Sumpani, who has 265,000 followers on Instagram (@eusumpani), decided to draw attention to an issue close to her heart – the objectification of women. "I'm only seen as a piece of meat, but contrary to what many people think, I have content,” she told NudePR.com. In a photo, Lari, who has previously hit the headlines for discussing her ‘sex diet’ fitness routine, can be seen wearing a small, bikini-like top and short skirt. The thin slices of red, fatty meat appear to be stitched together, as they hang down the model’s body. Lari also shared a video of the unusual co-ords, which has over 70,000 views online. The look is somewhat reminiscent of the memorable outfit Lady Gaga once wore to the MTV Awards in 2010. MissBumBum viewers have been left divided, with some fans reportedly calling the move inappropriate, while others have praised the move. “There was a steak for sure,” joked one fan. “Congratulations Lari, well deserved. Success smp for you,” added someone else. [sic] “Nothing but strength,” added another person. Lari can also be seen posing with her fellow contestants who are donned up in glitzy dresses, as well as bikinis and lacy underwear.
