Kim Kardashian was spotted at Los Angeles International Airport on Monday (September 22) holding the cutest little carry-on ever: her daughter, North West.

The 15-month-old looked ready to fall into, um, fall in her jean jacket and pair of bb-sized Timberland boots as her mom swept her past the paparazzi on their way through LAX.

That face! Nori is basically the spitting image of her daddy, Kanye West, what with that li’l brow furrow she’s got going on. Don’t worry, Nori, you’ll have another magazine spread in no time.

Over the weekend, Kanye West, Common and Lupe Fiasco performed at Chicago’s AAHH! Fest, and though he didn’t hit the stage, one of the Chi’s most buzzed-about up-and-comers, Chance the Rapper, made his presence felt.

“Yesterday I made a reluctant trip to Chicago to visit a friend,” a user named braindeadDRAMA wrote on Reddit. “Shortly after arriving I saw Chance tweet that he was in Chicago and was going to be giving away tickets to AAHH! Fest.”

“Hours went by and eventually I gave up hope until I was on my way to Target and saw him tweet location which I happened to be only 5 minutes from,” the user continued.

“I went to the address and when I got there it was only me and 2 others. The building was a music store/studio space but none of the workers had any info. After a few minutes of opening doors and sh-t someone said he was on the 5th floor so we raced up the stairs since the elevator wasn’t working.

“On the 5th floor we met his manager Pat who was super nice and had us come back downstairs and outside. After about 10 minutes Chance comes walking up out of nowhere with a stack of tickets and has people get in line. He handed out 50 tickets that he said he had purchased with his own money and was super cool to everyone who came out.”

And just like that, in only a few hours, a ...

When Mike Tyson tells people not to touch you, there’s a pretty good chance that no one will dare come near you.

That’s a lesson Ryan Chesley found out firsthand when the retired boxer came to his rescue after he crashed his motorcycle on a Las Vegas interstate.

The Associated Press reports that Chesley was on Interstate 15 Tuesday (September 16) night headed to Las Vegas when a taxi allegedly cut him off and sent him flying off of his chopper.

What happened next was like a dream.

Chesley’s attorney, Stephen Stubbs, told the AP that his client was lying on the ground when he looked up and saw Iron Mike, who had witnessed the whole thing and stopped traffic to rush to his aid like a face-tattooed guardian angel.

“He thought he was hallucinating,” Stubbs said of Chesley. “He thought he was in some other world.”

Chesley suffered torn ligaments, nerve damage and broken bones from the accident, but was still able to whip out his cellphone to take a picture of his hero.

Stubbs added that Tyson, who kept the 29-year old crash victim calm until the paramedics arrived, “just left, like some kind of superhero.”

To show his gratitude, Chesley sent Tyson a fruit basket with a hand-written thank you letter this past Friday.

“Thank you so much for looking over me after my accident,” read the note, according to Tyson’s assistant, Steve Lott. “It has to be the most reassuring thing in the world to have Mike Tyson telling people not to touch ...

Nearly four months after buying Beats Music and Beats Electronics for $3 billion in May, Apple’s plans for the Dr. Dre-co-founded company’s future appear unclear.

News surfaced on Monday (September 22) that Apple was planning to shut down Beats Music, the streaming service launched earlier this year, according to TechCrunch. That report was quickly refuted by Apple, though, whose PR rep, Tom Neumayr, called the claims “not true.”

But now, a new theory has surfaced: that the Beats’ music-streaming service will ultimately be folded into iTunes.

“I’ve always known in my heart that Beats belonged with Apple,” Beats co-founder Jimmy Iovine said in a press release after the acquisition in May. “The idea when [Dr. Dre and I] started the company was inspired by Apple’s unmatched ability to marry culture and technology. Apple’s deep commitment to music fans, artists, songwriters and the music industry is something special.”

Whatever the case is, Apple sure must be happy they acquired Beats headphones, which haves sales figures in the hundreds of millions.

After scoring a V magazine cover and, more recently, playing a handful of New York Fashion Week shows, it looks like Banks has officially become fashion’s newest music darling. The long-haired L.A. R&B siren just landed her first campaign—for Coach—and, not surprisingly, it’s a stunner.

Coach

Banks makes hat hair look like it’s a blessing in the new Coach images. Posted up in a ’70s-styled outfit with a fedora, she manages to add a romantic, feminine feel to a leather skirt, which is not an easy feat to pull off.

Coach

She’s joined in the campaign by fellow musician, Zoe Kravitz. IMO, she deserves the campaign just based on her rain face alone—and the fact that she’s managed to take any creepiness out of a sweater that refers to The Shining.

Coach

Christopher Abbott, aka Charlie from Girls, also gets caught in the rain and looks equally unbothered, despite wearing a shearling-lined leather jacket. That’s gonna take so long to dry, Chris! So, so long.

Coach

Actress Odeya Rush, who just starred in The Giver, actually has us excited for colder weather, looking super cozy in an oversized shearling coat.

Coach’s new ads are another step in the company’s ongoing rebrand at the hands of Stuart Vevers. Even though these ads haven’t hit yet—they’re due out this holiday season—we’re already excited to see who they tap for spring.

Rumors of Kanye West‘s teaching stint as part of his sentence to 24 months of probation and 250 hours of community service have been circling since June. But interest in Ye as professor has piqued once again when one of his students posted photos from Yeezy’s most recent lecture session to Instagram. It’s hard to look at the pics and *not* imagine what it would be like to sit in on a class taught by Kanye, so we’re taking it one step further and offering up a 100% fantasy account of what it could have been like in this installment of Fashion Fanfic.

The day started like every other: I found a decently close parking spot in the school lot, I scored a seat in the exact middle of the classroom—not too close to get called on a bunch but not too far to look like I wasn’t trying, I even had a little time before class to catch up on my Instagram feed before things got underway. And then it happened. Two campus police officers walked in, asked our professor if the whole class was present, and surveyed the room. Immediately, I thought the worst possible things: outside threats had been spotted along the perimeter of the school grounds, they were doing random bag searches and my extra-large Costco bottle of Dayquil was about to make me look very suspect, one of my classmates was being investigated—all of it ran through ...

From Beyoncé’s all-caps “FEMINIST” backdrop at the 2014 VMAs to Taylor Swift’s realization that she’s been “taking a feminist stance” for a while, the past month has been pretty exciting for those who like their feminism planted firmly in their pop culture.

And now, Joseph Gordon-Levitt — no stranger to public discussions of the other “F” word himself — has chimed in with a contribution of his own.

In a new YouTube video, the “Sin City” actor announces a collaborative project for his site, HitRecord, where literally anyone who wants to can upload a video of her or himself talking about their relationship with the word “feminism.”

“To me, it just means that your gender doesn’t have to define who you are, that you can be whatever you want to be, whoever you want to be, regardless of your gender,” Gordon-Levitt explains, clarifying his own stance on feminism for the purposes of the announcement.

However, he understands that as a man he can’t really tell a woman how she should or should not feel about the word. “It should be up to the woman to decide,” he says.

“It’s complicated,” JGL says of the entire discussion, before adding that’s it’s still totally one worth having. Couldn’t agree more, dude. Who else wants to jump in?

It’s been a busy few months for Lance Stephenson. First, in May, the 6’5″ guard helped lead the Indiana Pacers to the Eastern Conference Finals. Then, in July, he signed a $27 million contract with the Charlotte Hornets. And then on Monday (September 22), he dropped a video for his remix of Bobby Shmurda’s “Hot N—a.”

That sounds like the way a normal NBA player’s summer goes, right?

Well, maybe not exactly, but Lance isn’t your typical NBAer. Plus, he’s from Brooklyn, just like Bobby, so why not take a stab at the hit record?

The audio for the track dropped back in August, and the New York native followed that up with a video where he’s kicking it with his boys, throwing sneakers in the air like it’s Shmurda’s hat, and — in case the Hornets were worried — putting up some jumpers in the gym.

You may remember Lance from when Drake blew in his ear.

Jon Bellion is still a relative unknown when it comes to pop music’s heavy hitters, but the singer, songwriter, producer and sometimes rapper has been making quite a name for himself lately and creating some of the best music videos around.

Bellion’s new project, The Definition, will drop on Tuesday, so to lead up, he released his video for “Luxury” on Monday (September 22).

The animated clip finds a cartoon version of “The Monster” writer waking up in a dark house, before he runs from the ghouls and goblins that are to represent the horrors that fame and fortune bring. “It’s so plain to see, one can lose his way so won’t you pray with me, that I don’t lose my soul in luxury,” he sings.

“Luxury” is the third video from the upcoming The Definition. Last week Bellion, released the beautifully-shot “Carry Your Throne,” which incorporated a “Game of Thrones” type of a feel. Before that, he dropped the elegant “Simple and Sweet.”

That’s three different videos, with three different feels — and all of them great.
