After a five-year hiatus, Playboy is making a grand return to print with model and entrepreneur Lori Harvey as its cover star.

The SKN by LH founder embodies vintage glamour and high fashion in the shoot, posing poolside in a pink feathered tutu and satin gloves. In another shot, she’s seen alongside real bunnies in a plaid mini dress, and a third shot has her channeling old-Hollywood elegance in a black sequined leotard with thigh-high feathered boots.
Beyond her captivating visuals, Lori Harvey discusses her career, self-discovery, and being a modern cultural icon in her Playboy feature. The magazine teased her cover in January, featuring her on a vintage car with a “PLAYBOY” license plate. The relaunch issue also includes an interview with comedian Nikki Glaser and the announcement of Playmate of the Year, set for Super Bowl weekend in New Orleans.

In the latest video, Burna Boy and Chloe can be seen wrapped in each other’s arms, exchanging warm embraces and even sharing romantic kisses.

Lil Wayne has officially announced his highly anticipated album, “Tha Carter VI,” set for release on June 6. The rap legend subtly teased the news in a new Cetaphil skincare campaign, where multiple “6/6” easter eggs appeared throughout the ad. The commercial ends with a clear message: “Do Not Disturb ‘Til 6-6-25 Carter VI,” confirming the release date of his fourteenth studio album. The project will arrive five years after his last album, Funeral, marking a major return for the five-time Grammy winner.
Wayne’s partnership with Cetaphil comes just months after he voiced his disappointment over not being selected as the headliner for the Super Bowl LXI Apple Music Halftime Show. Instead, Kendrick Lamar, with special guest SZA, took center stage at New Orleans’ Caesars Superdome on February 9. Despite the snub, the New Orleans native revealed in December that he had spoken to Lamar and wished him well. However, he made it clear that he would not be attending the game. With “Tha Carter VI” officially on the way, fans can expect another chapter in Wayne’s iconic discography.

The sighting follows Asake’s previous relationship with Guinean artist Madame Mystiquee, which ended earlier in 2024 after gaining media attention. Known for keeping his personal life private, the “Mr. Money” hitmaker has yet to address the speculation surrounding his connection with India Love. Likewise, Love has remained silent on the matter, leaving fans eagerly monitoring their social media for any hints or confirmations.

The Philadelphia Eagles dominated the Kansas City Chiefs 40-22 in a commanding Super Bowl victory, denying their rivals a historic third consecutive championship. The highly anticipated showdown in New Orleans saw the Eagles impose their defensive superiority, dismantling Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs’ offense with six sacks and two interceptions. Despite efforts to contain Eagles running back Saquon Barkley, Philadelphia’s quarterback Jalen Hurts delivered a stellar performance, capping it off with a 46-yard touchdown pass that sealed the Chiefs’ fate. The win marked the Eagles’ second Super Bowl triumph, avenging their narrow 38-35 loss to the Chiefs two years ago.
Hurts, named Super Bowl MVP, reflected on his journey and the team’s resilience, emphasizing that setbacks had only fueled his determination. “There’s always going to be doubts and questioning, but this is my purpose and calling,” he said post-game. The Eagles’ defense, widely regarded as the NFL’s best this season, played a pivotal role in shutting down Mahomes and ensuring Philadelphia’s long-awaited revenge. As confetti rained down in the Superdome, the Eagles celebrated a defining victory that not only shattered Kansas City’s dynasty hopes but also cemented their own legacy in NFL history.
