Which rapper is the richest of them all? 

Jay-Z (born Shawn Carter) and Diddy (born Sean John Combs) have clinched the No. 1 and No. 2 spots on Forbes’ 2018 list of the world’s highest-paid hip-hop artists. 

Hov tops the list with an astounding $76.5 million haul that includes revenue generated from the release of 4:44 and a sold-out tour. His 2017-2018 income is a drop in the bucket compared to his estimated $900 million net worth. 

Diddy made $12 million less than the Roc Nation founder, but his $65 million yield from business ventures including Ciroc vodka, DeLeon tequila and Aquahydrate alkaline water was still good enough for the runner-up spot.

Kendrick Lamar, Drake and J. Cole round out the top 5, each having earned $58 million, $47 million and $35.5 million, respectively. 

Forbes reports that Nas had the biggest financial year of his career thanks to investments in Silicon Valley cash cows and online media. The 44-year-old multi-platinum artist made the the list for the first time in a quarter-century with an impressive $35 million haul that puts him just behind Cole. 

Check out this year’s top ten highest-paid rappers below: 

10. Kanye West – $27.5 Million

9. Future – $30 Million

8. Pitbull – $32 Million

7. Nas – $35 Million (Tied With Dr. Dre)

Forza Horizon 4 is due out October 2nd and the demo should be available on the Xbox Live Marketplace by the time you’re reading this. This time around, the team is taking its high-revving action to the countryside of Great Britain and there’s no better way to do that than in ten iconic cars of the most famous Brit in the world. Forza Horizon 4 is letting you push the red line like James Bond himself.

Adding to the 450+ cars already in the game, the Bond Pack is heavy on the Aston Martins, reaching all the way back to Sean Connery’s 1964 DB5 and checking off several other DBs along the way. 

Of course, you can’t have a Bond pack without peppering in some BMWs and Jaguars in there too and Forza is covering all their bases. Here’s the complete list of included cars:

• 1964 James Bond Edition Aston Martin DB5
• 1969 James Bond Edition Aston Martin DBS
• 1974 James Bond Edition AMC Hornet X Hatchback
• 1977 James Bond Edition Lotus Esprit S1
• 1981 James Bond Edition Citroën 2CV6
• 1986 James Bond Edition Aston Martin V8
• 1999 James Bond Edition BMW Z8
• 2008 James Bond Edition Aston Martin DBS
• 2010 James Bond Edition Jaguar C-X75
• 2015 James Bond Edition Aston Martin DB10

Those Astons are well and good but we may be most excited to take that 1977 Lotus Esprit out for a spin, though we don’t have high hopes about its submarine capabilities. We were happy to hear that, even though we won’t be able to use the Bond-style gadgets while playing the game, many of them would remain intact for you to peruse in the Forzavista mode that lets you get out and ogle these beauties properly. 

You can check out the official story from Microsoft here and download the Forza Horizon 4 demo here or on your Xbox One itself when it’s available. As for getting your hands on these cars IRL, you better start saving now. 

As we all know, Cardi B tried to fight Nicki Minaj at the Harper’s Bazaar ICONS party last week, where she tried to bitch-slap the Chun-Li rapper and threw her shoe across the room, but Nicki was like “Nah, girl. I’m good,” and Cardi ended up getting kicked out of the party after getting whacked on the head.

Apparently, the catfight was Cardi confronting Nicki for allegedly talking shit about her baby and telling other artists not to work with her. But Christina Aguilera—who was performing at the event when the fight happened—thinks she started the fight. 

Okay, Xtina.

In an interview with Jimmy Kimmel, the singer jokingly said she heard the fight break out as she was performing her song “Fighter,” and said it was “so appropriate. I was like, ‘Oh, my God! That’s genius! My music makes people feel…it’s invoking passion!'”

She also added that Cardi must have gotten a little too excited when she heard her “Migos version of ‘Genie in a Bottle.'” You know, because her husband, Offset, is in the group. 

What the hell does a “Migos version” mean? Did she rewrite the lyrics to “Genie in a Bottle” and make it about weed?

Anyway, even though she’s only joking about starting the fight, she should stay out of it completely unless she wants to be the next one dodging a shoe.

Remember when we introduced you to the “cage” lingerie trend? Well, the complicated look certainly seems to be picking up steam, as we’ve just spotted it on none other than Gigi Hadid during Rihanna’s runway show for her Savage x Fenty line. The trend boasts criss-cross details that resemble a cage, and can be seen on Hadid’s bra and underwear during the over-the-top runway show, which included interpretive dancing. (Cape and knee-high stockings optional). 

Gigi’s sister Bella also showed off another one of Rihanna’s beautiful creations: a bra with corset detailing and a lacy skirt attached to a garter belt. Meanwhile, the woman of the hour, Rihanna, took her bow in a ruched brown dress and strappy heels. Scroll down to see looks from the new Savage x Fenty show. 

Over the past few months, we’ve introduced you to a plethora of lingerie and underwear trends. You might not have known that cage underwear is a thing and string undergarments are popular again, but when we spot a “complicated” or interesting lingerie trend we’re here to share it. Today we’re adding to the list and showing you the latest trend to spark our attention. Enter naked underwear, well let’s not limit it to underwear we’ve also seen the look designed on bras as well.

So what exactly is naked underwear? Just what you’re picturing, lingerie made to have an illusion of looking bare, barely there or see-through. This can be through mesh lining or embellishments with slivers of “naked” details. Popular lingerie brands like Fleur du Mal and For Love & Lemons are leading the pack designing styles like the Georgi panties and below Lili thong. Enough with the explanation, scroll down to see the newest undergarments trend to hit the lingerie world.

Brigitte Macron may not be French royalty, but she looked every bit the princess for a state dinner at Versailles on Wednesday night. The president and first lady of France hosted a dinner for Japan’s Crown Prince, and one element of Macron’s outfit happened to follow a British royal outfit rule: her nude tights. Once Meghan Markle became a duchess, she started wearing nude tights to adhere to the royal protocol for more formal occasions. CNN royal expert Victoria Arbiter explained the guidelines to Insider.

“You never see a royal without their nude stockings,” Arbiter said. “I would say that’s really the only hard, steadfast rule in terms of what the queen requires.”

Although Markle has opted out of nude tights for less formal affairs, they remain a part of her duchess wardrobe. Of course, the definition of nude is different for everyone, which is why we’ve spotlighted brands like Heist that make seven different shades so you can find your match. Scroll down to see how Macron and Markle wear nude tights and to shop the look for yourself.

Fashion month always has one dangerous side effect: It makes us want to shop. And we’re not just talking about the clothes on the runway, as the street style set is usually the group that determines whether items will become cult pieces or not. We are only a few days into New York Fashion Week (the first on the monthlong schedule), there are a number of items that have already emerged as new hero buys for fall. There’s Staud’s new It dress, the new designer handbag name to know, and Shrimp’s new beaded beauty. Keep scrolling through the gallery below for this season’s ultimate street style shopping list.

Is your office throwing a Halloween bash during or after work? Are you allowed to dress up in disguise on or around October 31 rather than showing up in your typical workwear? Then there is just one simple thing to keep in mind: Make sure your costume is work-appropriate, because even if your office is down with Halloween, it’s super important to keep it SFW (safe for work). That means it may be wise to skip the slightly more risqué, skin-baring, and gory outfits and makeup, instead opting for something that is more, well, HR-friendly.

Need some help with creative costume ideas for work? Then you’re in luck because below, we’ve curated a list of 19 Halloween looks to try if you’re unsure about how to dress up. You’ll find one of the most popular and, quite frankly, easiest looks to put together. (Sneak preview: Where’s Waldo only requires a striped red shirt, a pair of round glasses, and a red pom-pom.) And if you’re a movie buff, you’ll find plenty of characters costume ideas as well, from a trendy take on Harry Potter to the super-adorable Boo from Monsters, Inc.
