Y’all thought Cardi’s career was gonna crumble from fighting Nicki but her album and old singles are charting again, and her Tom Ford lipstick sold out in minutes pic.twitter.com/CAWvjrEYUy
@makeyoumatt, tweeting about speculation from rap fans that Cardi B’s behavior at the Harper’s Bazaar Icons party — where she confronted Nicki Minaj for allegedly speaking about her 2-month-old daughter — would cause designers to stop working with the MC. Instead, beauty giant Tom Ford announced a partnership with Cardi on a blue lipstick. The shade is sold out.
Y’all: Cardi gonna stop her bag acting like a “ghetto hood rat”

Been rolling my eyes all weekend that Miss America is still a thing but MISS MICHIGAN FOR PRESIDENT https://t.co/Y6Wib6DVRg
@jrburns, tweeting about Miss Michigan Emily Sioma, who called out the unresolved Flint water crisis with this line: “From the state with 84 percent of the U.S. fresh water, but none for its residents to drink.”
So Emily Sioma, Miss Michigan is a sexual assault survivor/activist who takes her moment on stage at #MissAmerica2019 to go OFF about the Flint Water Crisis on Network television in front of a million viewers? We stan. https://t.co/VSesQDELnv
Miss Michigan using her 10 second intro to speak on flints water crisis instead of herself is truly using her platform for her state 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

@yoncepjm, reacting to a video posted by the Australian model that shows her receiving the news that she’d been picked as one of the runway models for the famed fashion show. In the video, Thot jumps up from her chair and says repeatedly, “Oh, my God, wow!” in amazed disbelief.

Okaaa, Im so happy she is going to become a Victoria Secret Angel. Finally, more representation of black gorgeous models on the runway.
And now the black eyed peas are cooking with black eyed peas. No words @thismorning
@LaraKeay, joking about the hip-hop group’s appearance on the British TV show “This Morning.” Members Will.i.am and Taboo were on to promote the group’s new song, “Big Love,” which comes out Wednesday. They then stayed on for the cooking segment, in which they made spiced tofu with a black-eyed pea salsa. Viewer @SamFarmer2 tweeted, “Isn’t that cannibalism?”
Isn’t that cannibalism?
Before you kick off about the shops having Christmas stuff in, bear in mind that for a lot of people – under pressure to provide – the shopping has to start now, getting a little bit each week or month as they get paid.
@EdSimpsonNI, responding to Twitter users complaining about U.K. store Tesco starting to stock Christmas decorations and treats. Many were annoyed that the holiday season appears to start earlier each year, while others noted that might be better for low-income families.
And for many more, they've only just paid off last Christmas. So being able to buy big tubs of sweets now and hide them away now is a lifesaver.
A person or family on a lower income might need to spread their purchases across the rest of the year. And I don’t just mean gifts, I mean things you might take for granted as “parts of Christmas”, like tins of sweets, drinks, decorations and lights.
