LADY GAGA DROPS NEWEST VIDEO: STUPID LOVE

Little monsters rejoice! Lady Gaga is back and back in a big way. She dropped her latest single and latest music video for "Stupid Love" which is part of her forthcoming album that seems to be called "Chromatica". And the talented superstar once again moved back to her pop dance roots with this new offering much to the delight of her fans.

The music video features Gaga and a horde of dancers clad in pink that seemingly feels like Mad Max in candy. The catchy tune and the bopping choreography makes you wanna go and dance to the tune. And this is a reminder that Gaga is part of music royalty and is here to stay for long.

Another wonderful and jaw-dropping news is that Lady Gaga's brand new music video for her song Stupid Love was shot entirely on an iPhone 11 Pro. This video is part of Apple's 'Shot on iPhone' campaign.

HOT PICKS: MISS UNIVERSE PHILIPPINES 2020 GLAM SHOTS

The Miss Universe 2020 competitions went into high gear with the release of their glam shots and I would have to say that some surprised us with over-all look and projection. This year's ladies make for probably one of the strongest pageant ladies we have seen. This early, no one is a clear favorite and a lot of names are being thrown as potential winner. By the glam shots alone, here are the 20 beautiful women that stood out for me in my second hot picks.

1. Paula Ortega (Albay)

Clad in her high fashion red ensemble, Paula has glamorous written all over her. She is also one of the few ones that showed minimal skin but still managed to pull off a sexy yet edgy presence.

2. Kimberly Hakenson (Cavite)

This Cavite representative certainly did well combining edgy and femininity even with her short hair-do. She is turning out to be one of the dark horses this early on the competition.

3. Maria Isabela Galeria (Sorsogon)

Clad in pink gown, Isabela showed beauty and consistency and her glam shot is one of the well loved and commented photo of the bunch.

4. Ysabella Ysmael (Paranaque)

Ballerina beauty Ysabella continues to shine and even with her yellow/golden dress she managed to stand out with even the golden backdrop which shows how eye-catching she is.

5. Alaiza Malinao (Davao City)

Another one of the early front runners is Alaiza and she certainly showed people of her strong fashion roots. She rocked this glam shot and everyone is talking about her.

6. Pauline Amelinckx (Bohol)

Arguably one of the prettier faces in the competition, Pauline gave us fierce yet elegant in this wonderful glam shot of hers.

7. Noreen Mangawit (Kalinga)

Completely surprising me this round is Noreen from Kalinga. I did not put her in the initial list of hot picks from the press presentation but she certainly slayed this glam shot.

8. Michelle Gumabao (Queezon City)

Crowd favorite Gumabao remains one of the stronger ladies in the pack and although I find this gown a bit unflattering she still managed to deliver in terms of presence in her glam shot.

9. Jennifer Linda (Palawan)

Another strong morena starting to make noise in the pageant is Miss Palawan. Jennifer took a simplistic yet elegant approach in her glam photo.

10. Skelly Ivy Florida (Biliran)

This beautiful barbie turned heads at the press presentation and delivered a solid shot this time around. Although I am not wowed by this gown.

11. Apriel Smith (Cebu Province)

Apriel looked fierce in this glam shot and has shown she is here to battle for the crown. She is one of the steady ladies who show consistency so far.

12. Jo-Ann Flores (Laguna)

This simple blue gown worked for Miss Laguna. And with her gorgeous face and simple styling over-all this shot was a success.

13. Christelle Abello (Aklan)

Miss Aklan is one of the few contestants that did a slightly back fronting pose but she made it really work. Christelle is solidly going up the ranks.

14. Sandra Lemonon (Taguig)

Sandra is hands down one of the sexier ladies in the bunch and that is already a given. But somehow she managed to deliver a solid glam shot that is less sexy but more glamorous.

15. Sigrid Grace Flores (Catanduanes)

Sigrid's white gown blended well with her which made her and the gown stand out at the same time. Pageant veteran Sigrid is keeping up the pace for this year.

16. Zandra Sta. Maria (Pasay)

Miss Pasay is another one of ladies with short locks but she did well in exuding confidence and chic in her glam shot making her one of the girls to keep an eye on.

17. Tracy Maureen Perez (Cebu City)

Cebu has been one of the places that always deliver in pageants and Tracy keeps the trend. In this simple floral ensemble, she managed to feel elegant and beautiful.

18. We'am Ahmed (Davao Del Norte)

That face is drop-dead gorgeous and that expression of hers makes for a great photo. Never mind that the gown was a bit simple, she still managed to deliver.

19. Christine Silvernale (Angeles City)

Christine sported one of the more unique looking gowns in her glam shot which made wonders for her. She was able to combined a whimsical ensemble and a sexy persona together.

20. Lou Piczon (Mandaue)

Simple but still works, Lou made sure that she was one of the girls to be noticed in this glam photoshoot and I have a feeling she is just starting to blossom through our eyes.

TAYLOR SWIFT BECOMES "THE MAN"

Taylor Swift dropped her newest music video today for "The Man" and it was definitely an instant talk of the town. In her latest video, Swift literally turned into "Man".  The song is an instantly iconic bop telling a different side on how different her career would have been if she were male. The lyrics in itself reference a lot on Taylor's years in the spotlight with her reputation as someone who regularly dates a lot of guys to her changes in musicality and everything in between.

The music video was another milestone for her as she has taken the director's chair by herself entirely. The video shows Taylor dressed and transformed as a man living a life full of money and models, and being disrespectful in every single way. The music video also has a lot of Taylor Swift references most notably on a wall graffitied with the names of some of Taylor's old albums — Fearless, Speak Now, Red, 1989, and Reputation.

The video also shows cameos from Taylor Swift's dad, TikTok star Loren Gray and the voice of Dwayne Johnson as "The Man". This is another artistic video from the ever talented and well loved Taylor Swift.

MARIA SHARAPOVA SAYS GOODBYE TO TENNIS

The tennis and sports fashion world would never be the same again as Maria Sharapova finally says her swan song in the sports she loved - tennis. The 32 year-old Russian announced that she is retiring from the competitive tour after struggling for the past few months. Earlier this year at the Australian Open, she suffered here 3rd consecutive 1st round exit at Grand Slam events.

The gorgeous and well loved Russian had a roller-coaster career on tour that is filled with several ups and downs. Considered as one of the fiercest competitors on tour, she began her career in 2001 and just within 4 years she notched the No.1 spot in the women's game. She has stayed at the top of the rankings for a total of 21 weeks during her career. She is one of ten women, and the only Russian, to hold the career Grand Slam. She won five Grand Slam titles — two at the French Open and one each at the Australian Open, Wimbledon, and the US Open, winning 36 titles in total, including the year-ending WTA Finals in her debut in 2004. Apart from that she is also an Olympic medalist winning silver at the 2012 London Games. She also won three doubles titles.

Her great career was tainted in 2016 after she failed a doping test which saw her slapped with a 2-year suspension for testing positive for meldonium. The suspension was later trimmed down to 15 months as the Court of Arbitration for Sports found that she had committed "no significant fault" and that she had taken the substance "based on a doctor's recommendation" in good faith. But after she returned on tour in 2017 she has never been the same player on court having her best Grand Slam finish at French Open 2018 where she made it into the quarterfinals. She leaves the tennis world with a singles ranking of 373. Fans will surely miss Maria Sharapova.
