Megan Thee Stallion and Klay Thompson hit the gym together after going Instagram official

Dallas Mavericks guard Klay Thompson and rapper Megan Thee Stallion are taking couple workouts to the next level. The pair, who hard-launched their relationship last week, appeared together in a new TikTok video where Thompson gave Megan personal workout assistance.
In the video, Megan leads a vigorous gym session with Thompson by her side. The clip includes exercises like Russian twists and pull-ups, with a moment that drew attention: Thompson assisting her pull-ups with enthusiastic hands-on support, which Megan jokingly referred to as his 'favourite part of the workout.'
Their relationship has gained traction on social media, with fans sharing clips and reactions widely. The workout post follows their first public appearance together at a charity event for Megan's foundation in New York City, where they wore matching black outfits. Megan also gifted Thompson a $300,000 watch, which he proudly displayed.
Earlier in the week, the couple was spotted vacationing in the Bahamas. Megan posted a bikini shot, later matched by Thompson's own Instagram story, confirming they were together.
Previously, Megan dated NBA player Torrey Craig in 2024, while Thompson had been linked to Coco Jones, Laura Harrier, and Eiza González.
The gym clip shows not only their chemistry but also how they're embracing public life as a couple.

Jessie Murph claps back at ‘1965' backlash, 'Are y'all stupid?'

Jessie Murph is defending her latest single 1965 after fans slammed the lyrics for glorifying an era associated with racism, sexism, and conservative gender roles. The 19-year-old singer responded to the criticism with a TikTok video in which she bluntly stated, 'The entire song is satire. Are y'all stupid?' The video, meant as a defense, only fueled further backlash across platforms. The controversy began shortly after the song dropped, with lyrics that seemed to fantasize about returning to 1965, a year widely associated with systemic inequality. Many listeners didn't find the tone satirical, accusing Murph of romanticizing oppression. Visuals from the music video featuring retro imagery only added fuel to the fire. Some fans believed the entire presentation felt more like nostalgia than critique. Trying to clarify her intent, Murph also commented under the TikTok video, 'for legal reasons this is satire i promise.' But instead of easing the storm, this line led to even more confusion. 'If you have to say it's satire after people are upset, maybe it wasn't clear,' one fan wrote. Another user replied, 'Satire isn't a get-out-of-jail-free card.' The backlash has spilled onto all platforms, with TikTok and X users calling out the inconsistency between the lyrics and Murph's explanation. Some have accused her of scrambling for excuses now that the song isn't being received well. As one top comment reads, 'If the outrage hadn't started, would she have called it satire at all?' Despite the uproar, 1965 remains on streaming platforms, and Murph has not issued a formal apology. Her team has not released any statements either. For now, fans remain divided, but skeptical.

Mehwish Hayat's message for those trolling Sahir Lodhi

Sahir Lodhi has recently been trending on social media, with users posting TikTok videos mimicking the actor and television host. Jumping on the bandwagon, Yasir Nawaz also shared a video of himself imitating Lodhi. The clip was received with humour and quickly went viral, sparking what's now known as 'The Sahir Lodhi Trend.' As the trend went viral, Mehwish Hayat took to social media to defend Lodhi, showing her disapproval of internet culture that thrives on making fun of celebrities. Hayat penned, 'It's really not fair how some people make fun of him, often forgetting that he's a human being with feelings, just like the rest of us.' The actor showed appreciation of Lodhi's hard work over the years by writing, 'He is someone who has worked consistently, shown up with passion, and built a name in an industry that's not easy to survive in.' Hayat emphasised that everyone deserves basic kindness, despite their differences. According to her, 'You don't have to agree with someone's style or choices but basic respect should never go out of fashion.' She had a positive message for the audience, promoting empathy, 'Let's normalise kindness, especially towards those who keep showing up, no matter what the world throws at them.' Lodhi has been the target of hate ever since he began his career. He has been trolled for imitating the Bollywood actor, Shahrukh Khan, for his over the top hosting style and for not appearing manly enough. His movie, Raasta released in 2017, was also met with a lot of hate for its poor quality, mocking the actor for his self-congratulary attitude. Previously, Lodhi had gracefully responded to his online trolls by stating, 'When you are in this profession, you become public property. I think if you cannot take humour or taunts, then you cannot work here.' While asked about negative comments, the actor remarked, 'Yes, I get a lot of hate and curse words thrown my way. If writing these comments makes these people happy or they believe I am a certain way, then what can I say? Everyone has the right to express and live their life in whatever way they want.'

D-Day veteran and TikTok star Papa Jake Larson dies at 102

Jake 'Papa Jake' Larson, a World War II veteran and beloved TikTok personality who brought stories of wartime courage to a new generation, died on July 17 at the age of 102, according to his family. Larson, who gained over 1.2 million followers on TikTok through his 'Story Time with Papa Jake' account, passed away peacefully, his granddaughter McKaela Larson announced on social media. 'As Papa would say, love you all the mostest,' she wrote. Born on December 20, 1922, in Owatonna, Minnesota, Larson enlisted in the National Guard at age 15 by lying about his age. He served in Northern Ireland before becoming an operations sergeant responsible for assembling planning materials for the D-Day invasion. On June 6, 1944, he landed on Omaha Beach under heavy machine-gun fire and later fought in the Battle of the Bulge. His wartime service earned him the Bronze Star and the French Legion of Honor. Decades after the war, Larson found a new way to connect with others—this time through social media. His TikTok posts blended humorous anecdotes with solemn reflections on the horrors of war and the sacrifices of his fellow soldiers. 'We are their family. We have the responsibility to honor these guys who gave us a chance to be alive,' he told the Associated Press at the 81st anniversary of D-Day in June. He frequently returned to Normandy, where he was greeted with open arms by locals and visitors alike. After his passing, tributes poured in from across the U.S. and France. The Overlord Museum called him 'an exceptional witness and bearer of memory,' vowing that his stories will live on.
