Cardi B is officially a mother of four, welcoming her newest child with boyfriend Stefon Diggs, reports confirm. A rep for the 33-year-old rapper says the Bronx native is “healthy and happy,” a sentiment that echoed through the sleek all-black announcement video she shared on Instagram, soundtracked by her song “Hello.” The Grammy winner’s reveal arrived with her signature confidence and theatrical flair, marking yet another major milestone in a year already defined by reinvention and momentum.
In her caption, Cardi B framed the birth as part of a larger personal evolution, describing her life as a series of chapters that rarely move in straight lines. She acknowledged that “starting over is never easy,” but called this new beginning “so worth it,” noting that she’s stepping into a fresh era with new music, a new album, and now a new baby. The rapper added that motherhood continues to sharpen her focus, giving her “one more reason to be the best version” of herself as she prepares for touring and what she calls a Me vs. Me chapter. “I’ve learned, I’ve healed, and I’m loving the woman I’ve become,” she wrote, signaling a powerful, self-defined next phase.

Mavin Records has introduced its newest signee, Cupid Szn, marking the rising artist’s official debut with the release of his EP Myth Era. The announcement came from label founder Don Jazzy, who shared the story behind the signing, a journey that began four years ago when a father sent him a demo of his then-17-year-old son’s music, a message that initially went unnoticed in his crowded inbox. Despite the missed opportunity, Cupid Szn continued to refine his sound and eventually caught the attention of the Mavin team two years later, setting the stage for his entry into one of Africa’s most influential labels.
Now 21, Cupid Szn has spent the past several years honing his craft at the Mavin Academy, the talent development hub that has produced stars like Rema, Ayra Starr, and Magixx. His debut EP, Myth Era, serves as his formal introduction to the global music scene, offering a fresh sonic direction that contributes to Mavin Records’ dynamic roster. With the project officially out, the label reinforces its long-standing commitment to cultivating homegrown talent and shaping the next wave of African music.

Pope Leo welcomed a lineup of Hollywood heavyweights to the Vatican in a rare audience aimed at strengthening ties between the Catholic Church and the global film industry. Stars including Cate Blanchett, Viggo Mortensen, Monica Bellucci, Spike Lee, Chris Pine, and director Gus Van Sant gathered beneath the frescoes of the Clementine Hall as the Pope praised cinema’s power to entertain, educate, and “bring hope.” Describing filmmakers as “pilgrims of the imagination,” he urged them to continue exploring the world’s most painful truths, from violence and poverty to exile and addiction, noting that great cinema acknowledges suffering rather than exploiting it. The gathering, hailed by Spike Lee as a “great day,” marks the first event of its kind at the Vatican and signals a more public-facing shift for the still-new pontiff six months into his papacy.
Leo XIV also used the moment to voice concern over a “troubling decline” in cinema-going, calling theaters the “beating heart of communities” and urging institutions not to abandon the art form amid industry pressures, including the recent Hollywood strikes and ongoing funding challenges in Italy. The audience ended with individual greetings, during which Blanchett gifted the Pope a solidarity bracelet for displaced people, while Lee presented him with a personalized New York Knicks jersey. Though known for a quieter style compared to his predecessor, Pope Francis, Leo’s high-profile engagement with filmmakers signals a growing effort to define his cultural footprint and to champion the role of film in a rapidly shifting world.

Pusha T and his wife, Virginia Williams, are expecting their second child, another baby boy, the couple confirmed through a pair of heartfelt Instagram posts. Williams revealed her pregnancy on November 14 with a photo showcasing her baby bump in a chic black-and-white maternity look, taken at the gallery where her artwork is currently on display. The couple’s 5-year-old son, Nigel Brixx, joined her in the announcement, hugging his mother in front of her exhibition Hancock Avenue, a collection inspired by her childhood memories and the beauty rituals that shaped her understanding of Black identity and artistry.
Pusha T, born Terrence Thornton, celebrated the news with photos from the gallery and a message addressed to Nigel, telling him that his long-held wish for a little brother was finally coming true. He praised Williams for her perseverance, noting she “never gave up” despite past disappointments, and offered a lighthearted thank-you to her for handling the hands-on parenting duties he jokingly hopes to keep avoiding. The couple, who married in 2018 after more than a decade together, will welcome their new son in spring 2026.
5. Chelsea Becomes the First Team in WSL History to go 34 Games Unbeaten
A NEW RECORD UNBEATEN RUN HAS BEEN SET.@ChelseaFCW‘s draw with @LiverpoolFCW saw the Blues break their own existing #BarclaysWSL longest unbeaten run to set a new league record of 34 games without a loss! 🌟 pic.twitter.com/Z92gBeteyw

Chelsea made Women’s Super League history on Sunday, extending their unbeaten run to 34 league games despite being held to a 1-1 draw by Liverpool at the Totally Wicked Stadium. Alyssa Thompson opened the scoring in the ninth minute after a bright start from the Blues, but Liverpool hit back through Beata Olsson in the 33rd minute following a defensive lapse. Chelsea dominated possession but struggled to break down the Reds afterward, failing to register another shot on target and ultimately losing ground in the title race, even as they secured a milestone never before achieved in the WSL.
The record run stretches back to the end of the 2023–24 season, with Liverpool notably being the last team to defeat Chelsea in May 2024. Despite Manchester City moving four points clear at the top of the table this weekend, Blues manager Sonia Bompastor remained unfazed, emphasizing the league’s rising competitiveness and her team’s long-term goals. Chelsea now turn their attention to the Champions League, where they face Barcelona next week following a dominant 6-0 victory over St. Pölten that left them well-positioned in their group.
